Integrated Camera

[pm]

I just got the X200 Tablet and have been looking to find a way to turn the integrated camera on.  But I still have not found out how to do that.  Can anyone help?

Download Picassa or other photo program and use it to run your camera

I tried using Picassa & Skype, doesn't work.

Event the Lenovo Diagnostic tool's test fails to use the camera.

Anyone solved this problem?

see if the camera shows up in device manager as an imaging device.  i think the latest driver is 1.1.0.19 for the x200 or x201.  you might have to reinstall or install the chicony TWAIN driver that controls the webcam interface with video chat software.

i just received my X201 tablet and have the same issue with the integrated webcam.  It does not work with yahoo messenger or msn messenger.   The webcam standalone does work.  I have the current drivers for the webcam.  I contacted tech support and they were no help, the rep suggested using picasa.  Any help would be appreciated to get the webcam to work with especially yahoo messenger.   Otherwise the integrated webcam is essentially a waste.

Thanks in advance.
