tat gt780 was taken at the MSI event

Hi just got my msi gx660 a couple of days ago. Went straight to reinstall a fresh window after received it as the led manager was not working. Now the led manager is working fine but my webcam isn't instead duh. Tried the shortcut keys of Fn+F6 couple of times still nothing. Whenever i used the simple camera or camcorder, it state no camera device. Any bright ideas guys? Appreciate it.

you reinstall a fresh window?

ok, have you install the SCM? which is the system control manager. This is VERY important as it manages most of the things in the laptop. Secondly, have you install the webcam driver?

if you have SCM and the latest webcam driver, when u hit FN+F6 they should be an image at the bottom right just above the taskbar that tells you the webcam is on. Then just run your camera app and voila. Hope that helps, if got any prob don't hesitate to tell us.

Added you up to the list

yeah i did, reinstall all drivers including scm. Did uninstalling and reinstalling the scm as well after finding out that the webcam is still not working and it is still not working. Any more bright ideas?

Latest update, i rolled back to my existing window by recovery of which i saved on my portable earlier on but webcam still not working.

thats odd, i think you better PM MSI-MY in this forum, he is somewhere here in this thread, tell him your problem and it will be settled in a day or so

i just remember something,

you use 32bit or 64bit? if 64 bit, when you dl the drivers, did you select 64bit rams?

Dear kirakun,
Have you solved the problem?

Yeah all drivers are of 64bit version.

Nope, tried all available measures, posted in msi forum as well as notebookreview but guess RMA is the only way, darn it, i need a laptop while waiting blast it. What a 'well done' job from MSI.

my windows start button on my keyboard stopped working today, restarted couple of times, didn't fix. any solution? gx660r by the way

If you plug in external keyboard, can the Windows button on the external work ?

i don't have an external keyboard
the button seems fine though.

hmm, try this
http://www.passmark.com/ftp/keytest.exe

just tried it, my windows start button had no colour, which means i cant press it i guess.

Try to plug in plug out the keyboard ribbon ?

sorry but what's a keyboard ribbon? :/

the connector from keyboard to the motherboard..
usually need to take out the keyboard to access it..

i dont think i can do that.. is there another way or did i disable my button on accident?

Press the button left side of the power button ?

sorry, i got it fixed now. just realised i clicked the windows startup hotkey.

lol no wonder it stop working.

btw kirakun, hmm i think that's not a big matter and you dont need to RMA it. How bout this, find one day we meet up i help u fix it up?

probably something went wrong when u do a clean installation. either u recovery it, or u install a fresh new OS in it..n if it's AHEM then probably that answers it..else i will try n check around for you
