An error such as “connect a camera” or “web camera initialization failed” may appear, or your webcam screen appears as a plane black screen.

In some instances, the camera itself can be disabled in the settings of your computer. To check this, completely shut down and restart your computer. As it is rebooting, press F2 when the Toshiba splash screen appears. Select “Advanced,” then “System Configuration,” and then “Web Camera.” You should see whether or not the webcam is enabled. Be sure to save your settings when you exit.

Sometimes the webcam software needs to be updated with a new driver. To do so, search “Device Manager” in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. Go to “Imaging Devices” and expand the drop-down menu. Your webcam should be listed there. Right-click it, and then click “Uninstall.” When you restart your computer, it should reinstall the driver with the most recently updated version.

In rare cases, other third-party software can interfere with the running of the base webcam software. To check to see if this is the issue, uninstall any third-party apps that use a webcam (such as Skype) and restart your computer. If the webcam is not working, the problem is unrelated to other webcam apps. If the webcam is working, re-install the third-party software, and check to make sure your webcam is still working. If not, the problem is with the third-party software and not your computer.
