Notebook from Vista 64 to XP 64 - need WebCam driver

by eMpulignano Feb 11, 2009 12:58AM PST

I recently purchased an HP refurbed 64 bit notebook running Vista. I had so many functionality problems with it that I purchased XP64 and had it installed. Most things are working well - except my web cam. Can anyone point me to a driver for XP64?

That would be HP.

Notice the drivers are not on the HP web site? They may hide them so you just ask.

web cam driver

I followed your link to the discussion with HP tech. The driver for the web cam that is linked there is designed only for Vista. Are you suggesting I may get an XP64 driver link directly from HP tech support?

Sorry if I was unclear.

I offered that discussion as an example where you ask HP where the drivers are. I do not know where they all are.

Worth asking HP?

Some expect these to be on the web site. Read the post again and for right or wrong, it's on the FTP server.
