Satelite C855 - webcam is not working

Bought my laptop two days ago, and the web cam didn’t work. Tried reinstalling the application but just says application failed to start, I informed Toshiba of this and was sent a link to a Zip driver file of the updated webcam driver all it did was to uninstall the previous webcam application that was preinstalled in the laptop.
Tried reinstalling the zip file after extracting it of course all to not avail.
Please help guys ... looking forward to a helpful reply
Cheers

Do you use original OS that you got with your notebook or have you changed anything?
Is webcam recognized and listed properly in device manager (imaging devices)?

I bought mine from Argos, and you'll think for the price i bought it they would exchange, no way. I had to phone Toshiba who collected it for repair, it was taken away on the 04.09.2012 and not return yet, but you do get updates of its progress as its has been sent to Germany for repair. Hopefully they will do a full diagnostic on the lap top. Not sure whether its a general thing, but I would suggest calling Toshiba to get it repaired... Im sure im not the first person to report this fault .
