Good afternoon:
I have a laptop, Samsung NP305EA5-A05US. It came originally with windows 7 but I upgrade it to windows 8.1 pro but since then, everything works fine, except the Webcam. Every time I try to use it, I get a message that says “Looks like there’s something wrong with your camera. Check the manufacturer’s website for troubleshooting info”.
The laptop have never been opened for anything neither have fallen.
I visited Samsung site for the updates but the updates they have, I can’t use then because I get the message that there’s isn’t a webcam attached to the computer. Please connect it.
I contact Samsung but they only send me their FAQs which didn’t help me.
Can someone give me an idea of what to do.
Thank you

and found this (which oddly doesn’t pop up when trawling Lenovo support section directly).

You may need to uninstall the camera first (and I would suggest a reboot afterwards) before installing the driver from above. But quite possibly the driver will go in ok as is; no harm to try.
