    Hi all, I get the same problem with my OrbiCam on Acer Aspire 5602 (but I have never crashed it)

    How can i do if the cam is not present in device manager?
    I have noticed that if I put the screen in a certain position the cam (sometimes) works, otherwise doesn't work.
    Warranty time has expired.

    Can you halp me?

    thx a lot :)

    My Aspire 5600 had the same problem. Was working fine, now suddenly says the camera is unplugged even though it is inbuilt. I have reinstalled the drivers but no change yet

Go to device manager and make sure that it is present in the imaging devices if it is there try to disabling it and enabling it back again it should work as i got a similar problem with an aspire 5571 and the problem was solved.

Acer orbi cam not working

Hi,
I think ur laptop webcam driver not installed properly.If ur laptop have windows vista operating system then do these steps.
Goto Start - Programs - Recovery Manager - Recovery Manager.In that recovery manager,click on next.Its shows the Software reinstallation page.Click on next button two times.Its shows the software lists.Select the webcam software and click on next button.After reinstallation completed , u restart laptop and check it.
If ur laptop have windows XP operating system then u uninstall the webcam software through Add/Remove program and restart it.After restarting ,Reinstall the web cam software and check it. If u doesnt have webcam drivers then u go for nearest service centre and install it.

Thanks

Acer orbi cam

unfortunately there could be the possibility that your acer cam is not compatible with vista.. vista is a tricky os right now so it is particular on devices and compatability issues--i was an early adoptor and it isn't fun.. i would check out logitech cams, they seem to work well but look for the vista compatible.. you may want to visit your acer website and see if there are any update or downloads for current users that now have vista.. hope this helps..
