G75VW webcam

[xmanrigger]

I have gone into Device Manager numerous times to disable the G75VW's webcam. Every time I turn around and look, the webcam has been enabled somehow. I had several laptops before and once I disabled their webcams in Device Manager, they stayed disabled.

Short of trying to uninstall drivers for it and whatever other greif involved, how do I disable the webcam? Reason being is I use an external USB webcam. I dont want to uninstall the onboard cam, as I may need it at some point.

Thanks

Have you installed the ASUS Lifeframe utility for your camera? It's found at the ASUS download site and can help you check the camera, but if you haven't already, make sure you see your webcam under 'Imaging devices' in device manager or be sure to solve this first.

Good luck!
