awhile back i purchased a laptop from digital storm and it has been working fine, i just never tried using the built in webcam until just now. it is nowhere to be found on the PC, its like it isn't there. i have tried looking for software for it to see if thats the problem, just can't seem to find software to make it work.

Call DS, don't wait. I'm not good with cameras, but your device manager should be able to see it, there is no setting in the bios for you to enable it, is there?
