Built-in Camera Sony VAIO SVF15A1C5E

Dears,

I have just bought a new SVF15A1C5E VAIO, and after a couple of weeks, the front camera stopped working. My laptop has W8, I do not know whether any update caused the problem. It seemed that the driver vanished from Geräte Manager, shoing a problem code 43. As there is no specific driver for the camera, I tried to install the software available on sony drivers website, then it worked. But as soon as I shutted my laptop down, the driver was gone again. I refreshed my laptop, then it started working again. But I had to restart it because of vaio updates, and the problem is back. It is shame to paying almost 1.000€ for a laptop and face this kind of problem.

Looking forward to a solution.

Marcelo.
