Post by: baker371 on January 10, 2011, 07:21:13 AM

I have a aquired a new HP Pavilion dv6-2158nr Entertainment Notebook PC with windows 7, 64- bit but the webcam is not working yet in the device manager it says "This device is working properly" when i try the hp webcam software it says "this graph can not preview"
Here is what i have tried so far but nothing works;
1. Uninstalled the drivers and restarted.
2. Installed Yawcam and it says "device not detected"
3. Installed sp34746.exe, webcam drivers for vista

Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

It's likely you will need 64bit drivers written for Win7 and the device.
