Why isn't the camera on my Lenovo Ideapad 305 working?

I have an Ideapad 305 however the integrated camera does not work. It is not picked up as a webcam in anything, as if it did not exist. It worked in the early stages and before it stopped being picked up entirely it could be used for brief seconds at a time. I do not know why this is but I need to use the webcam.

Update/reinstall your drivers - these will be available from the Lenovo website. If no better Go to devices and printers or device manager and see if it is present. If it is not present or present with an error code it probably needs replacing Go to devices and printer in control panel and make sure it is ready and set as the default.
