I recently performed a system restore on my windows 7.. and I had to reinstall all my softwares of preference.. Including the latest version of msn's messenger.. before the restore it was working just fine, but now It lets me log in and chat and all but when I click on my webcam so my friends can see me it says ''start a video call'' I tried under Actions in the taskbar and it actually says ''get a webcam'' but its weird because I can use my webcam on any other website except for messenger. help!

Does the webcam have a CD for install? If it is a Logitech webcam go onto their website and search for new drivers
