    Go to your start button,  type webcam into computer search, find web cam, right click open. 

    When ever a laptop comes with an inbuilt webcam , a default application will be provided by the manufacturer to access the cam. Search for the same and use it. You can also access the cam through control panel.


    Control panel->hardware and sound->device manager->imaging devices->web cam....make it enable


    One simple way is to use a IM application like Yahoo messenger or Gtalk which support video chat , it opens up the cam automatically once you start a video chat
