Hi.
wondering, what i can do.
ever since i have had my toshiba a 300 psa g4a laptop.
there is a unknown usb device, and not recognizing the web cam and the 
microphone linked to it.
i have installed and uninstalled the camera software for the web cam.
and a friend sent me a intel chip set and the file was called 
infinstal_auto.
and then got a word doc, how to edit the registry with the values in the usb 
in regedit of ForceHCResetOnResume
but it did not work, and now still get a error saying the camera failed to 
open, please start your camera or reboot the computer.
and get a unknown usb device.
short of getting a sighted friend to back to a external hard disk and doing 
a system recovery, and not certain if this will fix it, cannot use the 
camera, which is linked to the microphone.
and yes, if i get it sent away to be fixed, 1, over 100 kph away from where 
i live in Devonport, Tasmania.
2. they said they would pick it up for me, and the service centre is at 
Launcestan, Tasmania, if there are any aussies here on the list.
and then they did not mention a replacement machine for me to use, as could 
be without my laptop and no internet for a few weeks, and cannot do without 
it.
so, any other ideas, you can suggest to resolve this problem.
every time i try to use the skype test call service, and do a test, and try 
to record, no sound.
and when i did try to play around with the microphone and was using a real 
tech sound card, lost all my sound, and so had to have a sighted friend come 
and get it back for me which he did.
so cannot use skype at the moment.
any one else run into these problems with a toshiba machine?
