    1 - Click on the windows icon in the lower left corner

    2 - Can you see the icon for the HP web cam program?

    3 - If you can, click on it and drag it to the desktop.

    4 - If you can't... wait for someone else to help

    Had a quick look and the web cam comes up when i open the quick play application, i can recored myself and store it .....

    would the icon have been the programme and not an icon? can i restore to factory settings and it would come back.....

    am sooooo rubbish with computers!
