You have to tell us more facts.
The minimum is exactly which Mint you have - which version and which edition (main or any of the CEs)
We also need to know a bit about all your hardware.
Run " lspci " in a terminal and post here (to avoid misunderstanding - the first character is a minor L and you copy by marking with the mouse and then right click)
Some wifi and possibly built in sound can be connected to USB even if they are internal - if you suspect you have one of these run " lsusb " in a terminal.
Also tell us if this is using mint4win or not, quite important
This is a standard answer so it may not be fully applicable to your situation

Was the webcam connected to USB?
I cant find it in the lists and it is a USB cam
Might even be hardware error
With it connected rerun lsusb and see if it appears
Also run

Code: Select all

dmesg | grep usbcore
You could get something like
usbcore: registered new interface driver zr364xx
zr364xx: Zoran 364xx
Colour QuickCam for Video4Linux v0.05
The zr364xx is not in Mint so I don't really know if you find anything useful
