Dell Webcam Central & Windows 7 (The Windows 7 Version Of The Dell Webcam Central Program)

Simply put, could somebody please post a link to the GENUINE Dell Webcam Central software for Windows 7, where ever it is on the Dell Drivers Website?

I don't mean some hokey, 3rd rate Vista (or earlier) version of the program, but rather the true 32-bit OEM Windows 7 version that Creative Labs developed specifically for Dell notebooks and netbooks (and please don't refer me to the "Application" CD which came with the computer, because it's nowhere to be found).

Dell has been selling notebooks with the Creative Labs integrated Webcam and the Windows 7 operating system for a good couple of months now, and I know they would not have included the old Vista (or even XP) drivers for use with Microsoft's newest operating system.

I have looked high & low and read just about every post I can get my eyeballs on, but everybody seems to advise loading the old, outdated Vista or XP drivers rather then the new Windows 7 ones, which obviously had to have shipped with the computer, since it had Windows 7 on it from the get-go (and I'm not talking about the "upgraded after-the-fact" scenario, either).

So just a link, please, to the OEM Dell Creative Labs Webcam Central program for Windows 7.

It can't be that big a deal...

P.S.  I also need the Windows 7 Hauppauge TV tuner drivers (the whole lot of them) for an Inspiron Mini; they have to be out there somewhere, as well.

I would obviously prefer the Dell OEM version, but I DO NOT want (and will not use) the old Vista or XP versions, which seem to be available all over the place on this Website; I only want the true "made-for-Windows 7" stuff.

Thank you.

sagar757,

 

Windows 7 is supposed to provide the webcam drivers for most Dell systems. There are some Dell XPS models that require webcam drivers.

 

Try reading...

Troubleshooting the Dell Webcam and Dell Webcam Central Software

Also try running the Webcam Diagnostics

Did the webcam show in the symptom tree?

If the webcam is listed in the symptom tree and no error messages, create a new unrestricted user account and the webcam should work. If it works, then log out and log back in to your account the webcam should be working again.

Any error messages?

Is the computer under warranty?

yes! this is exactly what I have been looking for. After I reinstalled a completely new hard-drive into my computer after my last one crashed, I had to manually reinstall many of the drivers in order for my computer to have certain necessary functions that came with the computer when I had first bought it. Although I found most of what I needed through the driver CD that came with the computer, I scoured the web for a webcam driver for Dell windows 7, and I found mostly webcam programs that did not direct the root of my problem. Thanks so much for your help. My webcam now works accordingly as it should.

I called Dell support for the 2nd time and actually got a URL to download the actual Webcam Central Program. My computer crashed also and I needed the program again this is actually a download from Dell even though it is weird it will direct you to Dell to download Webcam Central once and for all.

You, me and a whole host of other people.  None of the fixes listed here have worked for many of us.  Dell refuses to address this issue.
