I have this new Samsung Ativ NP270E4E Windows 8 laptop with a built in camera. After 15 days, my laptop says that " no webcam detected" and " connect camera" but I have this BUILT IN WEBCAM. I go to Device manager to find the webcam driver and I finally saw It.The hardware that are functioning well is colored black but my webcam is colored gray. I open it and says "reconnect this device to computer" but i dont know how. I tried to update it and says" your device is up to date"
I open my camera and says "CONNECT cAMERA" Again... And then, accidentally, I deleted my webcam driver.
I am fixing this last two months until now. please help me guys.

Go to 'Device Manager' and update the webcam driver. (Disable device and then enable) - Restart computer.
