Sounds like the operating system does not recognize the device/webcam. Have you tried using a different USB port on the computer? If so, does it do the same thing, not recognize the device? Have you installed all the drivers and associated software for the webcam?

Install the drivers & software from the cd first before you connect the webcam!
Follow the instructions on screen when to connect the webcam!
Hope this helps...

You will need to install the driver for the webcam. It should be on the CD that came with it.

because you have not yet installed the driver for the webcam. This would have been supplied with the webcam on CD.

it is simply because the webcam is a hardware device which is connected to the cpu via usb connection but dont worry it has no damage!

when u get a webcam you get a cd with it you have to install it. if you have already done it then there must be something wrong with the harddrive. take it to you nearby computer shop.

in case you have a motive force for the webcam on CD or downloaded, unplug your cam and reload the motive force then plug on your webcam, if not, bypass to the webcam producer's internet site and obtain the latest motive force to your OS and which incorporate your webcam unplugged setting up it then plug on your webcam. it will be acknowledged and the latest motive force put in.
