I have a built in laptop. I recently uninstalled manycam and when I reinstalled a newer version, I haven't been able to display with my webcam. Drivers are up to date, I've uninstalled the camera, I've tried viewing the camera with different programs, and tried using the camera without manycam installed. It's happened a couple times before, but I can't remember how I fixed it. Any ideas?
Using windows 7 by the way.

Little bit confusing. Does the camera work outside of many cam but just not in?
Usually there are two drivers associated with the camera. Look up the make and model from manufacturers site and download, one may be under video listing one under cam.

Never mind. Just got home and woke up my laptop to check if the cam was still not working and it came on.
Problem... solved I guess.

Maybe it just needed to "sleep on it" and get 'rejuvenated'... ;)

I made it a sandwich and it pepped right up.
