Can you disable integrated webcam via the BIOS?

Hi,

I am considering buying an XPS 17 laptop for work purposes. My company's policy is that there should be no webcam or the webcam must be able to be disabled in the BIOS. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to disable the webcam in the BIOS? I couldn't find any documentation anywhere which tells me BIOS features.

Many thanks.

Hi SpiderHibs,

Welcome to the community.I did a bit of research on your query. I found that webcam cannot be disabled in BIOS on this system.However you can access Device Manager and there you can disable webcam if that helps.

Thank You

Roshan.

Many thanks for the response Roshan. It looks like I might have to look at the Latitude E6520 without the webcam.

Thanks again.
