How do I remove built in WebCam so that I can use my Logitech WebCam?
I've been all over this website so I think I've done my due diligence but I want to disconnect by laptop Vostro 1500 webcam and use my Logitech webcam. I've loaded the software and plugged in my logitech to USB slot but it won't work.
Thanks
BIG

You should uninstall the drivers for the internal camera first.
Is the driver for the Logitech camera Vista compatible? I had a very hard time getting an older Logitech to work with Vista because no Vista driver was available.

Welcome to the forums BIG :emotion-21:
I too decided to use an external/USB Logitech (QuickCam For Notebooks Pro) webcam, because I was having all sorts of trouble with the built-in webcam in my XPS M1730 (slow/jerky video, and no audio - no matter what I tried).
I simply disabled the built-in webcam in Device Manager, then installed the drivers/software for the external webcam, and everything works perfectly.
