How do I reconnect the Webcam on my dell XPS laptop?

You can try to reinstall the drivers. Try to find them on the official Dell site. Don't get them from anywhere else. (except maybe download.com) You might have to send your laptop for repairs if that doesn't work.

It is probably connected, its just not working due to driver/software not up to date. Assuming dell gave you a cd with software and drivers, try inserting it into your computer, and reinstalling the software/driver for your webcam. And it should work.

in case you have a digital camera on your computer, then you definately already have the digital camera and the utility. What you're able to desire to attempt is going to the commencing up menu and form in "internet cam" and a few thing could desire to pop up. There you may checklist issues. in case you opt to do chats and video calls, than once you're in Skype (Assuming you're employing Skype) there could desire to be an option to do a "Video call". this might use the utility on your internet cam, to make the video call. No downloads are mandatory.

I would go on the dell site and they have tech people you can chat with through typing or calling.

if you have spywear. try turning it off. it worked on mine.
