Best Answer

You should make your webcam driver active under the 'Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win 32)' driver using the 'Options > Video Source' hot button above the preview window.

otherwise, just go to device manager (My computers>properties>hardware>device manager), search for the yellow question mark in 'other devices' or on 'winbond HID CIR Receiver' under human interface devices. Right click > update driver. Follow the installation wizard, you need the driver intallation CD that comes along with your laptop.
