I installed Windows 10 on my Aspire V5-122P. The Acer site said this modlel would be supported but now the webcam will not work with Skype etc. In settings it says the camera is not connected to the computer. Help

    This is simple. Just Update the Driver. Problem solved. Sometimes the drivers get screwed up when a upgrade is done. Only way to fix is re update the driver for the WedCam. You can do this in the Device Mananager. By default the Driver that is giving you problems will be opened  in the Device Manager app. Click onto the driver and click update.

    Worst case is you might have to it manualy if so the you will have to know who made it then go to their web sight to get the Driver that you need. As usal alot of problems that windows has is releated to some kind of driver not working as it should. Hope this helps.
