Samsung SENS R509 Webcam and mic driver

[MikeonTV]

Hi there. I am living in Korea and bought this machine last year. It is very fast and has a great processor so I figured it would be perfect for Windows 7. Well I've been running W7 for a week now and love it.

Unfortunatly I can't seem to find any driver online for the webcam and mic for this machine. I know Samsung isn't that popular of a computer manufacturer. What can I do to get these two crucial componants working.

Sadly all the literature that came with this machine is in korean.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks that worked (i think)

But now I need software for it. I can't seem to remember or find what software to use

 

[Minotar]

What software do you mean?

 

[MikeonTV]

I dont know ... any software that would work, no?

 

[Minotar]

The problem is i dont know what you want the "software" to do,so i cannot tell you what to use lol.

What do you want to do,that you cant do becasue you dont have the software?

Well right now my machine recognizes that I have a webcam but it doesn't let me turn it on ... because there isn't any software. I just want to Skype and take snapshots

 

[Minotar]

Open skype,if its like msn,there should be an option to "use webcam"
Try that

LOL!!

Go to your audio controller,should be in your task bar,bottom right.click the little up arrow or the icon for your audio controller.

Make sure mike is on and all settings are right


I take it you downloaded the driver for the mic?
