Solution to Chicony USB webcam in Toshiba A205 after installing Windows 7 RC1

I just installed Windows 7 RC1 in my Toshiba laptop A205. I received a notification that the built-in camera is not working. I checked the Device Manager. It said that there was a problem with the registry. I tried updating the driver but it said my latest driver was the latest one.

So I checked out some forum. One post suggested installing a driver from http://203.56.127.6/driver_download/Public//p2_all/ChiconyWebcam_v1.7.175.0123.exe. I gave it a go and it worked! Sweet! … I didn’t have to tinker around with the registry.
