SOURCE: Aspire 4520- Windows 7: Webcam does not work properly
windows 7 has a compatibility program built in for addressing those issues from the previous operating system(XP)
go to start and in the search window
type in compatibility
this program will help you by running the program to test its functionality,
it will bring up a list of programs and ask you to select the program your having issues with,
then it will give your operating systems and service packs to test against,
at the end it will ask you if you want to save these settings.Y/N?
If the program runs ok then save the settings and it should continue to work from there.
Shut down and restart should embed these settings ,
Test again for function,
If no luck run the program again
You say that your system is dual booting,why?
windows 7 leaves XP for dust,
remove xp its taking up valuable space on your hard drive and possibly interfering with your systems operations,
Normally the hard drive will only allow one operating system on it,even if you have partions.
Fine tuning is all your looking for so let us know your outcome thanks
If you do a windows back up
which system is it going to back up?
normally it will write over the last backup you made and the new one replaces it,
