You can try to uninstall the device driver for your webcam and you can manually disable automatic Windows update for drivers.

After that try to install your webcam driver again along with your webcam and see if it works as windows will not automatically go on the net to look for drivers or preconfigured drivers.

To disable it go to Start and type gpedit.msc in the Start Search and press Enter. Once Local Group Policy Editor is open navigate to,

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Driver Installation

Now from the right sidebar open the key named “Turn Off Windows Update Device Driver Search Prompt” and select Enabled and click OK.

Now Restart your computer or Log Off and then sign back in.

Uninstall the webcam driver using Control Panel > Uninstall a Program

-Use this guide to completely remove old driver:

Install webcam driver & additional apllication directly downloaded from HP Website

Hope this will solve your problem.
