Windows Messenger Webcam guide
If you have questions please let me know. Thanks for using Fixya.
Hi,let me first ask you what kind of messenger you are using to communicate with your family?It is important to know so I can give you the right information you need.however, I assume you are using a yahoo messenger .heres the step to activate the web cam on your laptop..
1.log in to yahoo messenger
2. click the messenger tab at the upper right corner and scroll down at the my webcam.a webcam window will appear and the camera will be activated.
in case the camera did not activate there must be a problem on the cameras soft ware/driver and you need to reinstall the software.If you have the CD installer that comes up with your laptop insert it on the CD room and run the application this will install the driver for your laptop including the web camera.
here's a link that will direct you to the samsung webcam driver just choose your operating system and click the web cam driver then choose save to save the driver.Once download is complete install the program to activate the camera...
