Webcam not found Razer Blade 15 (2018)

B
Hi,

I'm having issues with my webcam for a number of months now, I receive the <nocamerasareattached> message when trying to open the webcam in apps. Skype and other voip apps cannot find my webcam. I can also not find it listed under device manager settings in windows 10.

Regards,

Hey fellow razer users! I am running a kali linux live usb and it seems that my webcam actually works through browser applications! I've been having serious issues with windows 10 camera, but I think linux might be handling it. It's possible reinstallling windows would help, or making a new windows account too. I haven't bothered with those. It seems to reinstall windows it has to be done through razer synapse anyway, since using the windows 10 system restore gave me unnerving messages about "restore failed" when I did it that way. (i havent verified that synapse would work, it's an educated guess). But anyway, TL;DR if you've tried everything but linux, and you need to get to work, try linux.

My imaging driver is not there. Is there anyway I can install the webcam driver?


Hey there! I appreciate the screenshots. However, I've omitted it since it is against our house rules. Please save the files via Google Drive or to another online drive account then send the link PM. I'll take it from there.

If you don't see it listed, means it is gone like mine. I wont even have that in Device Manager.

I have been issued with an RMA to send my laptop to Germany to be looked at.
I currently need it for working from home, and im poretty sure ill have to pay as its outside of the one year warranty.. so im not sure its worth is.. cheaper to buy a USB webcam with built in mic.

Same here, device manager does not show up anything for cameras.

No fix yet..
This is really disappointing for a laptop that is this price to have such an annoying error.
pick up your game RAZER!
I feel completely ripped off only having had this machine for just over a year..

hey there! I have the same issue, what do I need to do? I can't send my laptop for repair as I need it in order to work...
W
Nothing seems to fix this issue, currently in the process of getting mine packaged and shipped to Germany to be looked at.. frustrating.

Same here, the support want me to send my unit. They claim that the camera is not plugged to the motherboard. I'm waiting for their instructions but i think i will definitely open the laptop to see if it's plugged or not !

Might help someone..

An update for anyone interested..

Just got my laptop back from Germany. The screen was replaced and the camera and microphone now work perfectly. But they also kindly replaced my 144Hz screen with a 60Hz one... so i guess the fun continues!
