    Default Webcam problems on Windows 7

    So I've recently gotten Windows 7, but neither of my webcams are recognized. I heard that you can download drivers which are specifically for Windows 7, but I've googled them and find none.

    I have two webcams:
    PCL-W310 and a Labtec Webcam Plus.

    Could someone try and help me find a away to install them? Thank you

    Try that site for your first one Other companies just rebrand their webcams so thats where the drivers should be!

    I can't find either of my webcams on that site. And I also tried their company website, but it didn't have a Windows 7 driver D:

    Yeah, it is a problem. My old webcamera wouldn't work on Windows 7 because they hadn't updated the drivers. You can try:

    • Running the Vista drivers in compatibility mode;
    • Wait until 7 drivers are available;
    • Buy a new webcamera.

    The final option is what I did. Bought my new Advent webcamera for £25 in Dixons. Lovely.
