    Has anyone figured out how to get the webcam to work with AIM? I have the ZG5 model with 8GB solid state HD. The webcam works fine by its self. But when using AIM the options are grayed out and not available.

    I just got one for my daughter tonight and the same problem happens. Is there a way- she wanted this computer for the video chat so this is a huge problem!

    I couldn't get it to work in AIM but it did work with Yahoo Messenger.

    The search you did before posting should have thrown up this thread - do the instructions there not work for you?

    No they do not help. The video options are greyed out in AIM.
