It could be a software conflict and maybe the reboot will bring it up for you like it did for me...

Question..(maybe a stupid one) How did you shut the wab cam off when you were done with it? Maybe it needs to be turned back on? (Forgive me if that is a stupid question, I know nothing about web cams but I have had problems when I exited out of something and couldn't get it to work again until I rebooted.)

I'm not even sure if I can shut off the webcam I would think that you can but who knows how. I haven't really mastered Windows 7 yet and apparently not the laptop because I figured out what was wrong with the webcam and I feel reaaally stupid.

There's this thing called "Screen cover" that apparently puts a picture of a stupid flower in place of the live vid feed the webcam should be getting. Apparently I turned on screen cover. I double clicked the picture of the flower and it took it off and showed what it was supposed to. I downloaded all those drivers and stressed for nothing LOL.

LOL, Sorry Bri I got a good laugh out of that. I've done things like that before too, so don't worry you're not the only one.

I realized how stupid of a problem it was and I had a total moment where I was like "Wow, how could it have been that simple?!"

I was ready to take the computer back and demand they give me a new one LOL! But everything works peachy now. Looove this computer.
