Go to Device Manager and check whether there is a camera listed under 'Imaging Devices'. If that option is not there, there is no camera detected on the computer. It can be due to a harware failure or there is no camera in the computer. Most of the eMachines laptops doesnot come with a webcam. Just clarify this with the eMachines tech support before troubleshooting it.
