I was skyping yesterday and my skype friend had to disconnect for a few minutes. My webcam worked perfectly fine.
After we started a new call my webcam was all dark. I or my skype friend could see nothing. I can only see something when I hold my cam towards bright light. Well, I can see the light and a tiny bit of what is around it. I tried to set the cam preferences to default but it didn't help me at all. I tried to reinstall the driver for my webcam but I couldn't find any (HP 250 G3), so I reset WIndows 8.1 completely (via 'shutdown /r /o'). That wasn't the solution also. I then tried to wipe my HDD and install Windows 8. The problem still remains.
I thought that a cable might have loosened, so I opened my Notebook to check the cables. Everything was fine. The problem still remains.
Does anybody have an idea what it possibly could be?
