video camera driver drops camera randomly on intel AVStream camera

[stusenator]

Built in camera on MS surface pro 1866 stops working after a few days to less then one day requiring a removal of driver and restarting  computer. Then it works for a bit and then fails again. On latest version of Win 11

Hello stusenator, 

Thanks for the information provided. Doing further research, I noticed that the AVStream camera is only used by the manufacturer of the laptops (Acer, HP, Dell, Asus, etc). They are in charge to provide the proper driver and support since they have to make sure that it meets the requirements established by the manufacturer.

I recommend you check with the manufacturer of your laptop for further assistance.

Please keep in mind that this thread will no longer be monitored by Intel.
