HP PAVILION Built-in Webcam
Who knows how many people complained for following issue BUILT-IN WEBCAM WON'T WORK UNDER WINDOWS 7RC!
All right, I have the same problem, but I just could't find similar thread on any forum.
So, I installed win7 RC over win 7 beta (clean install not an update).
Everything went smoothly, drivers all found and instaled, device manager showing no yellow exclamation triangles.
Every bit of hardware is in place, everything works perfectly according to system diagnostic.
BUT, webcam shows no picture. Driver is properly installed and has no collisions with other system resources.
Interesting thing was, that camera was working excellent under win 7 beta. I don't know what has changed in win 7RC, but camera just won't start.
If anyone has any solution or similar issue, please don't hesitate to post a reply.
Oh yeah, my configuration:
HP PAVILION dv 6670el Entertainment PC
intel core2duo 2.0 GHz
2GB RAM
160GB HDD
NVIDIA 8400gs video card
HP built-in webcam (at least that's what system information says) 1.3Mpix

MSi GT735 Built In Webcam Not Working
The webcam manufacturer is listed as Chicony ,(Sonix260) It appears in the Device Stage as "CNF7231", and in the properties window has the following device id string: USBVID_04F2&PID_B073&REV_1208&MI_00 I have tried the driver that is auto-installed by the OS, the drivers available from MSi's website, the drivers for other models in the same series (laptops with the same chassis and same webcam installed). I've tied using installers and manual installs. Tried in both compatibility mode and running as administrator, and all combinations with and without these. I tried all the drivers on sonix website and i've tried drivers from MS driver database. I've installed a play-tool called Crazy Talk Cam Suite - which reports that there is no camera found? but there is a camera, it is at least present, and drivers are loaded, and report that they are working. Microsoft LiveCam also doesn't work. Skype shows a black screen, though it finds the camera. The camera has a small yellow LED which illuminates when the camera is in use... this never goes on. I have verified that the camera is still working in Linux, so there appears to be no fault with the hardware. I notice that MANY other users are reporting that their webcams are not working - especially internal ones. Is this a problem with Win7 or the drivers?

Dell E6400 Laptop USB (Built-In) Webcam Problem
After searching the web and this forum for some answers I realized there are many many problems with USB Webcams from different manufacturers. (please see the link below). My PC is fairly new Dell E6400 Laptop (Duo II with 4GB of RAM and nVidia video card with 256MB) with integrated Creative Webcam and despite all my efforts, installing different drivers in different compatiibility modes including the one released by Dell/Creative only few weeks ago - my webcam does not work. The driver is installed and the device is being reported by Device Manager as working properly yet none of the applications such as Windows Live Messenger not Skype can utilize the video stream, reporting inability to connect to webcam and that a "different application is utilizing camera". Since I found threads regarding many different webcam vendors (including MS), PC configurations and drivers involved I suspect that this is an issue with Windows 7 itself and not the webcams nor their drivers. BTW. My webcam was properly working under Vista 64 i.e. before the upgrade to Win7 RC (7100). I am frsustrated that there is no release regarding this issue anb no available solution / fix to the problem. What is going on?

Built-in H 264 Codec Glitches
I am having troubles with the Win7 built-in H264 codec. It seems to be buggy and produces some blocky artifacts in a few of my videos (I am trying to play a MP4 container with H264/AAC). This shouldn't be too much of a problem since 3rd party codecs do render the video just fine. But... I can use these 3rd party codecs in other DirectShow players, but WMP always seems to fall back to the built-in codec, whatever I try! What can MS do to fix this situation? I don't really care whether the built-in codec gets fixed, or WMP loads 3rd party plug-in, but as it currently stands, I can't watch my video in WMP.

Why No Built-in RAW Image Support ?
There is a RAW image viewer power toy available for XP which doesn't seem to work with 7. It would be nice to not even have to go through the trouble of installing the power toys and just have them built right in to the OS. Another useful one that comes to mind is the Image Resizer. I think one of my biggest gripes with all versions of Windows is having to go and install applications that are used for common computing tasks such as viewing / editing images.

Win 7 Built In Backup System
Question about Windows 7 Ultimate's built in backup system. If I create a full system backup of my "C" drive, then do a restore, will it just install the "C" drive partition only, or will it overwrite the entire HD, thus wipping the rest of the partitions? Not looking to have the other partitions wiped! I did some looking around, but that question/issue doesn't seem to be addressed.

Built-in Support For Bluray Playback / Burning
Confirmed by Mr. Sinofsky himself, there will be no native BluRay support in Windows 7. However, BluRay Drive makers and OEMs will be able to extend Windows Media Center to support playback. What will be supported in Windows 7 though, is the burning of BRD discs. Here’s the email that was forwarded to me from our loyal reader Theodore. I did make a WHOIS check to make sure that it was Sinofsky himself. Location was indeed from: United States Redmond Microsoft Corp.

No Built-in Driver: Marvell Yukon NIC
From my understanding the Marvell Yukon NIC is quite popular on several motherboard manufacturers, including Asus. I have an Asus P5B-Deluxe and was shocked to see after loading W7 I had no network connection. Thankfully I had a laptop which was working, so I could download the Marvell driver. Given that NICs are vitally important, I hope MS can include Marvell drivers in the RC and RTM releases.  I'm using this driver: http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?driverId=154

Generic Drivers For Built In For Laptop Card Readers
If you have a laptop and have a problem getting the built in SD / MMC card reader to work then I've found the "generic" one from the Twinhead german site does OK. For X-64 use the Vista driver. Expanding the zip file will give you the 32 and 64 bit drivers. The most "Generic" drivers seem to come from the F11Y laptop series but choose from other models if this doesn't work. Most of these drivers are pretty "Generic" so should work with a huge amount of hardware irrespective of your actual model. HP/DELL/COMPAQ owners are usually pretty lucky as the manufacturers sites are pretty OK. It's when you buy essentially an unknown brand of laptop where you can't find the "manufacturers" site as the laptop is badged under a different name. From the link just click on the Notebook model and get the drivers. No stupid registration or "Let's scan your computer to see what driver you need" -- and then you are re-directed to a PAY service or more adware nonsense -- I HATE those sites --what if I'm using a different computer to get the driver than the one I install it on.

64-bit Drivers For A Built-in Camera On A Sony Laptop
I am looking for a 64-bit driver for the built-in Camera on a VGN-FZ145E Sony Laptop. When windows 7 64-bit Ultimate was done installing on the computer the driver that it installed was a Microsoft driver and the device is called usb camera or something to that effect. I am aware that Sony does not have 64-bit drivers on their site for the laptop for Vista. Does anyone know of a third party driver that might work. Sony® Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC4

Win7 + X-Fi: Can't Decode DD/DTS (Isn't This Built Into
I'm getting a little frustrated because the latest Creative X-Fi drivers say this: Added Features or Enhancements: For systems using Windows 7 or Windows Vista * What U Hear feature is enabled. To find out the Product ID of your audio device and if it supports the following feature in Windows XP, click here. * Dolby® Digital and DTS® decode re-established for sound cards that included decoding in their Windows XP drivers (Not applicable for products that included a 3rd party software DVD player license in the package). I've checked the compatibility, and my Xtreme Music supports this DD/DTS decoding. However, in the audio console I do not have a decoder tab and my SPDIF I/O tab has the SPDIF drop-down grayed out and set to "Default". How do I get my X-Fi Xtreme Music to hardware decode DD/DTS? (under Windows 7).

Developer Drivers Vs Microsoft Built In Drivers
Whats the recommended installation procedure for installing drivers for specific hardware from a developers site or using the windows 7 default drivers? For example when I install my windows 7 x64 Betas it found and installed the drivers for my chipset and everything fine. However browsing my Motherboard manufactures website I see they Drivers for chipset, audio, and other components I can download. Would you recommend I stick with Microsoft drivers or use the drivers on the developers site?

HP Pavilion A810n Drivers
I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate onto my HP Pavilion a810n, but cannot get the XP drivers to work with it. I really only need the network driver to work so I can access the internet. I have tried extracting the drivers to a folder and tried to add it using the "device manager" manually but that does not seem to work. It would also be great to get the motherboard audio/video drivers to work. Not that important since I have an external sound card and an ATI All in wonder Video Card.

Dv6000 Webcam Driver
I have a HP Pavilion dv6238ea and it had xp on it and the webcam driver i downloaded from hp.com worked fine. Then i formatted it and installed windows 7 in it. Windows 7 detected the webcam and installed the driver. The webcam shows as ''HP Webcam 1000" and the manufacturer is "Micro Vision" and also the driver is provided by 'Micro Vision'. But it doesn't work. It only shows a black screen. I downloaded the vista driver from hp.com for my laptop(HP Webcam Driver with Firmware Upgrade for Microsoft Windows Vista HP Pavilion dv6238ea Notebook PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English)) but it is not able to install. It gives an error. There is no available driver for windows 7 for this laptop (or any dv6000 series i think) on hp.com Can anyone help in solving this?

Sonix Webcam Driver
I have a crappy E-Bay purchased Webcam, I used some random Sonix drivers last time, and I could've just as easily used a driverscanner, since I was running XP. However, try as I may, all of the drivers I use, including ones I got from the manufacturer, fail horribly. Sometimes they install, but AMCAP won't recognize that I have any hardware plugged in, Driver Detective had found a driver, but I can't pay for it. I'd be willing to do almost anything to fix this issue.

Default Webcam Drivers
currently have Windows 7 RC 64bit installed but have come across only one problem so far. A webcam i have that was pretty cheap and cheerful had appauling drivers that came with it but when installed on 32bit vista with the drivers vista found itself it worked awesomely, even better than when it was using the drivers that came with the hardware. But the thing is after plugging it in on Windows 7 there doesnt appear to be a compatible driver for basic cam fuctionality.
