I've recently received this laptop as a present. Apparently, it has been bought from another person because it was not in a box, and it did not have any disks or papers with it.
Unfortunately, I believe I need these disks and papers that I do not have possession of.
Whenever I try to run the Crystal Eye Webcam it says, "Camera not found!". I have gone to the website to try and download any webcam programs and drivers they have, and I've even tried the trick of taking all the pictures out of the pictures folder.
It's not working. Can someone please tell me what to do?

let me help you with that... the only thing that the webcam is not detected nor work properly because is not the valid.right driver for it. check the part number and model laptops and go to acer.com and follow the necessary procedure to download. and install it properly...
Download the latest driver for the crystal eye webcam from the acer site, install the driver (will not work yet) then go to device manager and image devices, right click and scan for new hardware devices and then widnows vista will pop up saying installing the cam. Thats it. Worked for me.
