Aug 23, 2015 Please help, I have a MSI GS60 Host-003 and just applied the windows 10 update. Now my webcam is no longer recognized as a device. Fn6 key no longer turns it on and off and none of my applications can activate it. Device manager does not have it listed either. Does MSi have the drivers. The Driver Update Tool – is a utility that contains more than 27 million official drivers for all hardware, including webcam driver for msi. This utility was recognized by many users all over the world as a modern, convenient alternative to manual updating of the drivers and also received a high rating from known computer publications.

Hi, Check the Start - All Programs Menu for MSI, Camera, WebCam or similar to see if you can locate the WebCam software. If no luck finding it: You probably need to reload the camera drivers and any camera control software.
Logon as Admin. Control Panel - Device Manager - Imaging - write down make and model of camera - double click on it and on driver's tab get version.
Now click Update Drivers (which may not do anything as MS is far behind certifying drivers). The RIGHT CLICK on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will refresh the driver stack. Now go to System Maker's site and download the latest camera driver and other related camera software (if no newer get the same ones). Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.
Manually look at manufacturer's sites for drivers - and Device Maker's sites.

Here is a google that shows links to how to use a WebCam with many programs and you can add to its search for any specific program. How to use a WebCam Hope this helps and Happy Holidays!
Then leave windows updates on however stop it from loading drivers which are often older than the ones you have installed. If Updates suggests a driver then HIDE it and look manually to see if their really is a newer one (at both system maker and device maker's sites).
