Step 1
Installing a webcam is pretty simple and doesn't require any special skills. The first step, of course, is to connect the camera to your computer. To do this, insert it into the USB port of your PC. Be sure to wait until the operating system detects the connected device. After that, the system drivers for this device will be automatically installed. If you received a disc with additional software included with your webcam, you can also install the drivers that will be on this disc. After installing the drivers, in some cases it may be necessary to restart the PC. If a notification appears that you need to restart your computer, agree.
Step 2
To use the webcam, an appropriate program must be installed, for example, Skype. Download one of its latest versions from the Internet and install it on your computer.
Step 3
Run the program. Then select "Tools" in its menu, and then in the additional menu - "Settings". Then left-click on the "Sound settings" parameter. After that, select the webcam that you recently connected to your computer. The device is now fully connected and ready to use.
Step 4
Also, the program with which you can use the webcam may be on the driver disk. If so, then it is recommended to install this particular program, since it is designed specifically for your webcam model. The setup instructions should also be on this disc.
