How can I test and turn on/off inbuild web cam and microphone?
-
On my Acer Aspire 5750 laptop I have an inbuild web cam and microphone. Though I find the web cam under image devices, I don't see any button to turn it on/off, nor do I find the microphone, so I can turn it on/off as well?? (And I know that one can just stick a plaster over the web cam, but I like to know where on the system I can turn it on/off as well.) Where can I do this and how can I test both? Thank you for your help with this.

Answer:
Web Cam click - start (the windows icon bottom left corner) type - device manager - press enter expand - Imaging devices right click - Web Cam select - disable/enable You can do the same for your microphone but disabling the microphone will also disable your speakers/earphones as well using this method. The sound card is located under - Sound, video and game controllers. You will have to restart your computer every time you want these changes to happen.
