Had same/similar problems with webcam on my HP 9292eu, tried lots of fixes even new driver Vista fix from HP which didn't work. HP help were not much saying it is an issue with some.
So far, few days I have it working by uninstalling in device manager then choosing add new hardware and selecting Imaging device and choosing HP webcam it then loads new USB drivers and it works in all applications Windows live etc. I have 2 installed webcams showing in device manager HP webcam and USB webcam the HP one not installed correctly. Hope this may help someone. By the way TV tuner cards are also an issue so say HP and have no fixes for them yet!!!!!! Basil.

Had the same problem on my HP dv9267. I can use the built in webcam with Skype and Windows Live messenger using the following procedure: Put PC into hibernation, then exit hibernation and immediately use the web cam - for me this works for one webcam session. if you exit the webcam application and restart, you have to go through the hibernation procedure again. I have spoken to HP support but they don't acknowledge the problem.

I know what you are saying and how you must feel. I have the same issue and no solution. Media center on Vista displays the webcam fine as does HP's own QPlay. Any other application does not seem to connect. Strange part was when I started Live messenger and selected the audio-video config my tv tuner card was displayed as the webcam inputthe only one it found. I suppose I could connect the camcorder to the a/v input on the tuner card and broadcast that way.
