    i did and it worked. i actually found out right after i post this but this camera doesn't look like 720p. it's so cloudy and when i capture movie with camera recorder that came with laptop, it only captures at 640x480. camera itself actually looks worse than my $500 laptop with .3mp cam. is there driver to download to fix this? i couldn't find any and when i turned camera on with fn +f6, windows 7 ultimate 64bit just auto installed it.

    I didnt see one on the web site. No updates for the driver for the web cam. If you can find out which cam is in it you might beable to find a new driver for it and download it.
