how do i turn on my webcam on my hp pavilion

I always shutdown my system instead of simply putting it into hibernation or sleep. The amount of time you wait between crash and restart may be important so I try and do this step within 1 to 2 seconds after I've completed step 3. If you are successful the blue LED on the side will briefly light (1/2 secs I'd estimate) then go out and about 5 seconds later you will see the BIOS messages on the display and the system will continue to boot with the display active. After crashing the BIOS in step 3, press and *hold* the escape key (labeled esc) immediately below the power button and press the power button to turn on the system again. If your system shuts down quietly, you will need to return to step 1 because this whir-clunk sound indicates you have crashed the BIOS and that is needed to get the right state for the next step. Once the system has auto-restarted once, press and hold the power button until the all the LEDs go dark and you hear the disk drive make a short whirring sound following by a clunk. The system will auto-restart repeatedly is another symptom of this problem that seems to be fixed by this procedure. Allow the system to go through the automatic 'restart' that occurs when you are in this state. This is the state my system gets into and seems to be the common state referred to by other users having the problem. You may also notice the LEDs around the network port (8 pin modular connector) flash at initial power on also. The blue LED next to your SD-MS/Pro-MMC-XD slot (left side front) should stay lit during BIOS and the screen is blank. Press the on button of your offending DV6000. No working laptop just one really expensive door stop.Īfter reviewing the applicable DV6000 threads for this issue across the web I've come up with this remedy which seems to work if you are disinclined to perform the 'real' fix of reflowing the solder joints of the NVidia chip on the motherboard. Most of the other people with problems said they could hear the fan, but with mine there is noting. I tried searching the net for solutions but no one really has the same problem as me. I also have taken out my laptop's ram and re-inserted it (same with my hard drive). I tried the taking out the battery and hold power button for 30-60secs trick, but no luck. (These lights are on when you turn the laptop on). The screen is black, there are no blue lights that are on. Once I put it back in I tried turning it on by pressing the power button, but it wouldn't turn on. So I took it out and put it back it (i didn't really touch anything). Once it turned off I decided to take the battery out (for no apparent reason). I pushed, and held the power button until it turned off. My HP pavilion Dv6000 froze and I decided to manually turn it on and back on. This morning I turned on my laptop and worked perfectly.
