now i'm getting:

I've tried cleaning out my old video drivers, installing fresh ones,uninstalling and reinstalling pc cam drivers and playing with the filter settings. Any reason why everything would look so horrible now?

Are you sure that the drivers that you are installling are the proper ones. On some machine models sold there were two or more different webcam units installed and each had their own particular driver.

I used the ones from here:

So i'm assuming that it's the correct one. What's weird is that I tried to look on the CD of drivers that originally came with my laptop and didn't see one for the pc cam, was it a separate CD?

Yes, it comes on a different cd. The CD it comes on is solely for the camera. It contains 2 drivers on it, for 2 different model cameras. It has some way for you to determine which camera you have, then you install the correct driver.

Search for your model on this page to find your drivers.
