Just go through the below steps and after that make sure your getting the issue or not. Go to the Device Manager (Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance (or system) -> System (If you have not already done) -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager button). Then go to WEBCAM. Go to the Driver tab and after that make select on the Uninstall the driver. now once you uninstalled the webcam driver and after that reboot the system. now while restart the system will install the webcam automatically.

If the camera has stopped working or if the webcam icon is not displayed on the desktop or in My Computer or starts from the Windows Start menu, the webcam may be disabled. To enable the webcam, proceed as described below.Open Device Manager. select the plus sign (+) next to Imaging Devices and locate the entry for the camera in the device list. If the webcam is present but the icon below Imaging Devices you see a red X, the webcam is disabled. To enable the webcam, select the right mouse button on the icon of the Webcam for Windows XP, and then select Enable. At this point the webcam icon should appear on the desktop or in My Computer window.

Remove unnecessary drivers and causing conflicts.
If you have previously installed the latest service pack or if you have installed additional software for the webcam, you may have installed other webcam drivers that cause a conflict with the correct driver. To check if you have installed additional drivers and remove these drivers, follow these steps:
  • choose Start, type Device Manager and select Device Manager from the list.
  • In Device Manager, choose the plus sign (+) placed next to Imaging Devices to e7and it.
  • If the driver is the only Microsoft webcam driver listed, go to Update the webcam driver of this document.
  • If there are multiple webcam drivers listed, choose the right mouse button on a driver and select Uninstall, repeat this process until it is listed only the Microsoft webcam driver, then go to update the webcam driver of this document.
  • If there is no webcam drivers or after you have uninstalled all the drivers, go to reinstall the original drivers of the webcam of this document.
