Webcam

[Serendipity86]

Hiya,
I have the Vortex IV LE laptop with windows 7. And I have a question about the webcam.

On my old Acer laptop there was a program on it called 'Acer Crystal Eye Webcam' and I could click this program and it would open a window where I could see myself on the webcam, and then I could take pictures and videos with it.

I can not find anything like this on my Vortex. Is there a program I'm missing with the laptop that I can use so that I can take pictures and videos with my webcam? If not, does anyone know of any free programs that I can use for this? Thank you.

I believe you can do that with skype nowadays since ms got their hands on it.
