The obvious thing is to upgrade the driver.. Have you tried that? Also when you say windows are searching..? I assume you mean you have reported the problem to Microsoft? If you have installed some new software, it may be caused by that.. Also you might try to fall back to an earlier restore point. That is always an option. It does seem as if the driver is fine, otherwise you would not be able to use it on Skype, which means it's probably related to Windows. I'd upgrade the driver or fallback to a previous restore point via Windows.. Let me know if you need further explanation..

My orbicam is not working

You should go online and download the updated Driver for the orbicam (google on orbicam). Reinstall it, restart the computer, and then try the cam again. There may be something in Skype that helps config your cam.

Acer orbi cam

try to uninstalled the orbicam application and then restart
and installed it again.
FYI, if you don't have the application, you can download from acer website; www.acerpanam.com
There are 3 type of orbicam (bison, suyin and logitech).
i don't know which one is yours, you can try 1 by 1.
make sure you uninstalled when you want to installed another orbicam application.
