How do I get the webcam to work? I have set it up in both windows live messenger & yahoo messenger. Nothing happens. The Cyberlink "youcam" software it came with doesn't even detect it. Help please!
Do you have the USB cable connection from the monitor hooked up to your computer? If so, are your USB ports configured properly?
Your computer should alert you with an audible tone indication whenever you connect or disconnect the webcam USB cable. If it is not doing this, The webcam itself may be defective.

I have an application (Headmouse2) that says 640 x 480 screen size is not supported, although I don't know yet what sizes it *will* support.. 640 x 480 is the native video size for my HP webcam according to MediaSmart settings. Is there any way to change the default video size for the webcam to work with other programs?

For the first few months I could access the camera with no problem, and since I was fooling with it constantly it was in my recently used programs list in the Start menu. But a while back the icon disappeared and when I try opening the HP MediSmart menu and click on video, it redirects me to Window Media Player. There's another video program I can get to, but I liked the simplicity of the MediaSmart option. How can I get the icon back so I can use the HP MediaSmart webcam again? And why doesn't the HP MediaSmart menu take me where it's supposed to?
