Can I install a webcam on a laptop with an integrated one?

Question

Before I buy a laptop, I would like to know if it's possible to install a web cam on a laptop that has an integrated web cam. If so, does that work on every laptop?

Answer 1

On almost all modern computers you will be able to, even ones that have integrated ones.

So the answer is yes.

Answer 2

It's the software in question, not the hardware or specific computer. Any USB webcam should be installable, as long as it comes with drivers from the manufacturer. Even if it doesn't, you should be able to find them online.

You'd just have to make sure that the applications you plan on using the new webcam with are compatible with it, and that there's an option to select which one to use. You could always disable the built-in cam in the Hardware Profiler in Windows.

Answer 3

Ya... sure.. Webcam uses only USB port and the answer is YES

answer my question pls...........
