How To Connect The Web Cam To My Computer?

Answer Question

    Plug the camera  lead into the usb socket.  Some web cams are self recognising and will install themselves.  It you have a disk put that in and follow the instructions.  Third alternative choice is to go to the hardware settings and see if the computer will recognise it as a new piece of hardware.  If you still have problems look up the manufacturers website and they usually have support on there.

      Most web cams attach to the computer via a USB port, but some connect using the S-video port or the VGA port (although I've never seen one of those).  In addition, most web cams need a driver in order to work properly.  Most come with a CD containing the software you need to use them, but you may be able to download the software with some searching.  I suggest looking up the brand and model of web cam that you have and finding out what needs to be done with it.
