Mr-Protocol Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It is probably only turned on when software polls to access it. Like Windows Live Messenger or whatever cam-capable software. When I used my old webcam many years ago it would only turn on the light when it was in use with whatever software was accessing it. If nothing is actively using it, it would go into a "sleep" ish mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
