How is this a Windows problem when your problem is with a webcam not made by
Microsoft?
Don't tell me you installed drivers from Windows Update for your webcam???
Rule of thumb is never use Microsoft's hardware drivers unless you're
upgrading Microsoft hardware.
See if you can roll back your webcam driver, or uninstall it altogether and
reinstall drivers from Philips website.
