Dell Monitor Camera

I have a Dell Monitor hooked to a Dell XPS Laptop. I want to use the monitor camera not the laptop camera. I've tried the suggestions from a closed thread about activating the camera but when I try the steps it keeps going to the laptop camera.

Suggestions or am I asking the impossible.

 

Windows 11: Plugging in a USB Camera resets Bluetooth volume to nominal.

Hi Rick_B2

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I am aware of the present situation is that Your Windows 11 plugged into a Logitech camera (USB camera) will reset the Bluetooth volume. As this may involve a third-party hardware driver, could you please provide some details?

• Whether the current Logitech camera have some USB drivers loaded on the current computer?
  
• As a test environment, please try plugging the device in with another USB device and see if the Bluetooth volume resets or not?
  
• Assuming that the other USB device does not affect your Bluetooth volume when plugged in, then we need to trace the reason back to the Logitech camera itself. Technically speaking, the Bluetooth connection is also via the USB protocol, I would suggest you contact Logitech's official support and ask if anyone else has recently reported the same problem, if so please try to contact Logitech for a more compatible driver.
  

Looking forward to your reply.

External monitor detected as camera

I have 2 identical Dell laptops. When I plug my external monitor into one it is detected automatically and everything works. With the other when I plug in the monitor it's detected as a camera. My display device, monitor and camera drivers are all identical
and updated. In the Device Manager when I plug into the laptop that works the monitor appears under Display Adapters, as it should. But the other shows it under Cameras as a USB Video Device that won't start. Hope someone has an idea on this. Thanks.
