http://google.com
Search for "using a WEBcam"

Also check out the support and documentation options offered to you -
perhaps from the dealer who sold the package.

If your webcam came preinstalled with your laptop, you have no problems. You
can use it in MSN messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Messenger Live, etc. All you
do is send an instant message to one of your contacts who are online in the
above programs, and click on the webcam icon in them. That sends them an
invite to view your webcam, they accept, and away you go. Or, someone will
ask your permission to view your webcam in the message section. If you know
them and trust them, accept. In the preferences or options section of each
program, you have a checkbox for EVERYONE to see that you have a webcam when
you are online, or uncheck that, a good idea!

You should be able to access that in the control panel also. AND..in My
Computer, it will usually show up under the Camera list.
