Webcam stopped working?

Hi

RE: Webcam not working

I recently ran one of the vaio updates on my VGN-CS31Z/Q Laptop.

After doing this I noticed I was unable to use my webcam on windows live messenger. I tried removing and reinstalling windows live messenger but it still won't work.

The camera icon only says 'start a video call'. It used to say send webcam.

I have been into audio settings which used to say Default - Sony Communiaction Centre but it now says Default - USB device. I can see myself in the box and the light comes on by the cam.

If I press the capture button on the keypad it loads the Arcsoft Camera, I can see myself on screen and the magic i visual effects box pops up.

Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

Many thanks in advance
Please reply
