    Hi I brought a Acer Aspire One for my god daughter in the UK and they cannot figure out how to activate cam for the first time. I had the same problem here in the USA with a MSI Netbook and that needed to be turned on at first by pressing the FN key and F6. Does the Acer have to be turned on in the same way. It doesn't come on with either Yahoo or MSN so I think cam is turned off. Any help would be most gratefull.

    i navigated to Start >> My Computer
    under the drive C is a camera icon. clicking this icon starts the camera. It might also be found under Accessories>>system tools or entertainmenthe. can't remeber, but the easiest thing to do was drag the icon to quick launch.
