Acer OrbiCam is not recognized on my Acer Aspire... (by 5 users)

Sounds like the original program got corrupted. When was the last time you ran disc defrag? Anyway, to fix, for some odd reason, moving all your pictures to a new file, leaving your picture file empty, may fixya.. If that doesn't work, reinstall the original Orbicam program as follows: first go to control panel, then check out device manager to see if you have any nasty big checks. If "imaging devices: has a big check, try reinstalling the driver there. If that doesn't fixya, click on Start, then Acer Empowering Technology, then Acer E-Recovery, and choose Restore Apps and Drivers at the bottom of Restore tab. It will extract; then click Install for Vista or (XP) on the left - click Drivers - Camera or CCD - on the right side of the screen for your model which you saw in device manager. Please let me know if that doesnt do the trick.
