I dont know where the program for webcam is on my laptop

To my knowledge, that laptop model doesn't have a built-in webcam.

Try installing the driver for it...here is a link to Toshibas site with the webcam drivers, just choose the correct operating system and downlaod and install.

You need the driver for the webcam to work. Toshiba did not have the webcam driver listed separately for download. You may find it in the toshiba drivers for update to windows 7 here http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/bulletin.jsp?ct=SB&soid=2476028&ref=EV

***However first do READ which laptops the drivers are for and make sure it includes yours! They are not for older laptops. There's two versions to download. There's a link on the page above to read before downloading and installing the toshiba drivers. Not every thing will run under windows 7 yet*****

Unfortunately it is not uncommon for toshiba's laptops to out live the built in webcams....

The L300-ST2501 and the L300-ST3502 are built with Webcams and there IS a microphone built into those webcams.

The L300D-ST3501 and the L300D-ST3503 are NOT built with webcams or microphones.

Hope this helps!

Sounds like a driver problem. Which version of windows are you using?

You can download from this link :

select your model and then operating systme then downlaod driver for cam.
Let me know if you need more assistanse .
Thanks.

is it on vista? is the webcam compatible with vista?

also you can only use the webcam with 1 software at a time so makesure it isn't working live elsewhere like msn, skype..ect..

the only other advice is to unistall and install again following the exact manual instructions.
