Why won't AIM detect my webcam?

Won't detect webcam?

  • I had a webcam plugged in, and the computer recognized it, but wouldn't let me click on the icon to run it. Now, whenever I plug the webcam in, the computer doesn't even detect it. The CD that came with it already says the program is installed, so I don't think that could be it. I've tried other USB ports, but still no detection. Help?

  • Answer:

    A couple things you can try. 1: UNinstall the driver software, then SHUT DOWN your computer (NOT Restart) Wiat a couple minutes at least, then turn computer on and REinstall the drivers software. 2: Go to webcam's manufacturer's website and download the LATEST driver software for your model webcam.
