Help I need my webcam for an interview tomorrow!

[Deleted User]

Hi,

I have an interview tomorrow and need to do a skype.

I have a Sony vpcej2a9e laptop.

I have looked in my device manager but cannot find it?

Can anyone help please.

Tried the Sony website but does not have a driver.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Hello Chris, I had a quick look on Google and I'm assuming your particular model has a built in webcam. According to the Help files trying this: Start>All Programs>ArcSoft Webcam Suite>Webcam Companion 4. I assume you've set up a Skype account and there's no video feed?

What OS on the laptop? Could be in trouble if XP.

Thanks for that 20aday.

That loaded the program OK thanks and gives me webcam companion and magic-i software but still says no webcam found.I know I've got one as its on the top of my screen.

I'm using windows 7.

(Windows7) Start -> run > devmgmt.msc
What devices are listed under "Imaging devices"

There is no 'imaging devices' in device manager.
