Solve : Blue Screen / Laptop Camera? |
|
Answer» I have an Acer Aspire 5672WLMi laptop and it has a built-in OrbiCam, EVERY once in a while I hear a sound as if I was plugging/unplugging an USB device, sometimes it does that twice and then stops but there's times, like a few mins ago, that it goes crazy and I get a Blue Screen. I have searched on google but couldn't find much information except perhaps the wires that connect the camera might be loose/damaged and that's what causing it. This is what i suspect also...are you still under Warranty on this machine ? ?

No, the laptop is almost 2 years old.That model # is not user friendly when it comes to dis-assembly or PUTTING it back together... I wish you Luck...I'm no expert mate but rather than wish you good luck.. I assume this camera is important to you? YEAH? Have you considered another camera? Have you got the driver cd for the camera??A new camera me thinks.. Quote from: Mulreay on April 14, 2009, 04:58:18 PM I'm no expert mate but rather than wish you good luck..

No, I don't care about the camera too much really since I rarely use it. The drivers are up to date but it doesn't seem that's the problem, I'm almost 100% sure it's a hardware problem, probably the wires. Disabling the camera on Device Manager won't fix it, so the only solution I can think of is completely disabling that USB port but I have no idea how to do that and it can't be unplugged as it's built-in.

Laptops are generally not designed to be user-worked on...however if it's out of warranty try visiting ACER's site for dissassembly info... |
