HP 430 laptop webcam not detected

[aamna khan]

Hello, the product code of my laptop is HP 430 B4U59PA#ACJ. windows 7, 64 bit. I have built in camera. It was working nicely at starting but since one year now its not working. whenever I open my cyberlink youcam I get this error "no webcam detected.try plugging in a webcam into your computer now. if you are using an integrated camera,make sure that is turned on." I tried re installing but it didnt work. I checked my device manager. The snap short of the same is below.

I entered msinfo32 in the run. In components>problem devices. The following list appears-

By default, Device Manager shows a device if it's connected and powered on.
> None of those hardware IDs are your web cam
> Look through Dev Manager under imaging device, USB devices and see if any "Other" device entries. Anything look like your cam? Any line item with a yellow icon (Other then the Ethernet and Network controller devices)

If not, then check if any way to power/on off the cam. Any on/off functions or switches on your laptop for the cam. If not, the cam must have failed. Unfortunately, I see alot of that problem on this forum

There is no imaging device under device manager. The snap short of the device manager is attached below.
Do you know how to on/off the cam coz I am not able to find a way to do so.
My voice recorder is also not working since the day my webcam stopped working.

Indications are you web cam has died I've seen a lot of laptop web cams fail (especially HP laptops) in these forums.

btw... The PCI devices in your report are for
> Ethernet Controller - for a cabled internet connection
> The other PCI device is your onboard card reader.
They're both missing drivers.
