I have newly purchased a HP Pavilion dv5 laptop and just recently, the webcam on this laptop started acting weird. I have Window Vista installed on this laptop. The webcam used to work fine but all of a sudden it stopped working and to get it working again, all i had to do was to restart the laptop and the webcam would start again. But after few weeks, the webcam didnt work at all even after the restart procedure. I also get an error message saying that "No device detected. Please plug a device into your computer. If you are using an integrated camera please make sure its turned on". I have also checked device manager but there are no imaging devices found anywhere. But USB is listing an unknown device which I tried to remove and then after restart, it said that there was no driver found for this device. So i tried reinstalling the webcam driver again but that didnt work. Now am out of clues on how to solve this issue, please help me out.
