Something has happened to my Chat application, it used to work perfectly and now if I click on it it takes agessssss to load, it's ridiculous. I have a Mac and it slows the whole thing down, it won't let me do anything else, go onto another page.... It's so frustrating! Any ideas?

The Acer Aspire netbook line comes with a webcam built in to the display panel. This webcam can be used with any software that can access the webcam, such as a video chat program. The cam is in use only when the appropriate software is loaded, so it's not active at all times. The webcam drivers are installed in your netbook, so it should work with most software.

Install a third-party application, such as Skype or Yahoo! Messenger, that offers video chat features. Launch the video chat or messaging software. Select video chat or video calls from within the application to activate your Acer Aspire netbook camera. The camera should load automatically when you select the right option in your third-party software. The camera output displays on your screen and your chat partner's.
b>Click start control panel view devices and printers you should see your webcam from there if you are have trouble with your webcam Click start control panel administrative tools computer management device manager scroll down image devices you could see a yellow question mark? right click to reinstall drivers or update driver xp Click start right click on computer select properties device manager scroll to image devices expand right click to update driver in W7 http://download.cnet.com/2000-20_4.html on the home page you should see a search tab just type in what you are looking for IE: webcam name webcam driver you might have to try a few times to get it right software if you dont have the driver you will need to download one here rather doing a driver hunt which can take hours http://download.cnet.com/slimdrivers-free/3000-18513_4-75279940.html Windows XP/Vista/7/8 It might take some time being a freeware driver solution note: it will find all of your outdated drivers this is a free driver solutions This will automatically search for and find the correct driver you will have to update every driver individually once you update you might be asked whether you want to restart or make a system restore point click no to both of these then continue updating each driver free then restart once all of the drivers have been updated Some webcams and programs require additional software, although that should be installed with the webcam if things are right. But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktime software are installed and up to date. But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing. Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c - Windows Vista: DirectX 10). http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Which-version-of-DirectX-is-on-your-computer Hope this helps.

Hi,

It happens with me too.And there is nothing to do with the Java.It is the chat application itself.

Hi lisalin...

Follow the instructions below to use your webcam
Click on Start then >Control panel>hardware and sound >device manager>imaging devices>web cam....enable it
Another way is to use a IM application like Yahoo messenger,NetMeeting,etc. They will have video capabilities that will work with your webcam.
Please take time to rate me

try to use shift+enter or click outside the chat window and use your enter key it will work fine!!

What's the brand & model of your router? Can you be more specific about the error you get? Probably you need to forward the right ports for Skype to work. Check out this website " http://portforward.com " just skip the ads though. If your router's in the list, click on the link for your router and it should take you to the applications list. Find Skype & follow the instructions on how to configure it behind a router. Here's an example using my D-Link DIR-300 router " http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Dlink/DIR-300/Skype.htm ."

Try reinstalling the software you are using to take the pictures and do not use both video chat application and picture application at a time as one of them will block the use of camera for its use and other application might send you error message.
Hope this suggestion works, or else give more information of application you are using and type of cam you have.

hi there. you actually downloaded the right driver :
