HP builded in Webcam!

Hi,
Sometime ago i dedected that the webcam was no more working.
Reinstalling the SW-driver didn't help.

Now the webcam is even no more visible in the device manager and i can
detect it anymore with the tool scanning for new HW?

Who can give any advice?

Regards
Huib

Hi,
I didn' found nothing on special keys neither did i found something on
HP-sites.
Into the bios i didn't look yet. this is for the coming days.
I have an impression that it happened after installing SP2 of vista.
