Lenovo Y510P (Unsupported for Win 10) Camera Driver Needed


Hello and welcome ksuthayya have had a look for a driver for your machine but there are only drivers listed up to 8.1 not 10.
Camera Driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - IdeaPad Y410p, Y510p - Lenovo Support (US)

Another Google found that there was no camera driver support for 10. for a similar Lenovo Lenovo Y510P (Unsupported for Win 10) Camera Drive... - Lenovo Community

Having said that my old Toshiba was in the same position and yet when I installed 10 Windows updates found drivers for stuff not listed on the Toshiba site.

Now a suggestion would be to get a clip on camera and install it via USB or like wise because it would have it owns driver. If my memory serves me right they are not that expensive - but still annoying eh?.

 

Lenovo Easy Camera not working with Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.


In most of the cases webcam might not work if it is not compatible with the generic driver or if supporting software is not installed.


I would suggest you to update the Camera drivers from the
device manger.

• Press Windows + X key and select Device manager.
  
• Select Imaging devices and select Lenovo Easy Camera.
  
• Right click and select Update the driver.
  
• Follow on screen steps and check.

If it doesn't help then I would suggest you to check in the manufacturer's website for compatible Camera drivers and install it and also any supporting webcam software:

Lenovo Support:
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products?tabName=Downloads&linkTrack=Mast:SubNav:Supportroduct

If this doesn’t work then follow the same way and Uninstall the camera driver and restart the machine.


Windows 10 will automatically detect the Camera while you use it and installs the required drivers for it.


Keep us posted to help you better.

 

Camera not working! error code: 0xA00F4244(0xC00D36D5)"

Hooray. I have spent weeks trying to get the disappearing camera to reappear on my YOGA 510 and even bought a cheap plug in device. My computer is a Lenovo Yoga 510 and the camera had just ceased to work apparently.

On my machine, I discovered F8 switches the camera on and off. Lenovo service hadn't the wit to suggest it and I was about to invoke the guarantee.

It's the old maxim: "Keep it simple, stupid" (KISS). It's often the SIMPLE things that go wrong and can be put right.

Thanks.
