    My webcam just stopped working
    In the same session it had been working perfectly but then the program I was using could not find it.
    I opened camtasia and it also said that no webcam was connected.
    It is built so obviously physically connected.
    MSI M670 G51-N1PRO16-Y41 with 1.3 Mega Pixel cam

    I have looked on the MSI site but can not find any relevant help
    and I can not even find the program on my computer that runs it.

    I have done a system restore to before the lastest windows up date
    I wan't hopefull as it had been working since then.

    I have looked for a driver down load but not found any thing

    I am running vista home premium 64bit

    Any help will be gratefully received


    Steve

    In my case, this also happens to my notebook when it wakes up from sleep or hibernate mode.
