How do I use it? Simple, right?
So we just bought the brand new HP Touchsmart IQ770 pc, it's fabulous by the way, and I've figured out how to use pretty much everything on it, except the integrated webcam. So, someone who actually owns one, can you puh-lease help me? I can see the actual camera in the top of the computer, and I've looked through nearly every file and folder on all the drives and I can't find anything about it. And of course the userguide is USELESS. I have nero and roxio media if that helps any...but I can't figure out how to even use the webcam, so I guess not.
Anyway, please help. Cheers.

First, I don't have a notebook, I have a DESKTOP. A brand new one. And second, every new bloody computer runs on Vista now (which I hate...so pointless)...including mine. Not XP.
Anyone else?

The HP Webcam 1000 is the built-in webcam for certain notebooks. This document provides instructions on diagnosing and resolving the most common problems encountered when using the camera in Windows XP.
Activating the webcam
The drivers for the webcam are pre-installed and an HP Webcam 1000 icon displays on the desktop. Double-click on the icon to activate the webcam. The blue light illuminated next to the webcam lens, just above the LCD screen, indicates the webcam is on.
If double-clicking on the icon does not activate the webcam, do the following activities:
Click Start, then right-click on My Computer, and then select Properties.
On the My Computer properties window, click on the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
Click on the plus ( +) sign next to Imaging Devices and locate the webcam item in the device list.
If the webcam is not listed, do the following activities to install the driver using the webcam driver recovery.
Click Start, click All Programs, click PC Help & Tools, and then click HP Application Recovery.
Select Driver installation and click Next.
Select the HP Webcam 1000 driver from the list, and click Install.
If the webcam is listed under Imaging Devices but there is a red X on the icon, the webcam is disabled. See figure below.
Figure 1: Disabled Webcam Icon
To enable the webcam, right-click the HP WebCam 1000 icon and click Enable. The webcam icon should display on the Desktop.
Alternate locations for the webcam icon
If the webcam is installed but the icon is not displayed on the desktop, look for the webcam icon in one of these alternate locations.
Click Start, and click My Computer. The webcam icon should be displayed with the other devices. See figure below.
Click Start, and click Control Panel , and then click Scanners and Cameras. The webcam icon should be displayed with the other devices.
The HP Webcam 1000 does not install a listing under any of the All Programs menu.
Using the Webcam Diagnostic Test
To ensure the webcam is operating, do the following activities:
Right-click on the WebCam icon, and then select Properties.
Click on Test Camera under Diagnostics on the General tab.
The test should only take a few moments, but allow the test to complete operations by itself.
The result of the test, either passed or failed, will be displayed.
