For making your webcam work you don't require any programs to download. If you have a laptop an sure there is webcam along with the laptop.Take a proper look at it and am sure you will be able to use your webcam.
nice discussion with technical replies on web cam problem. if you re facing the same problem still after these valuable replies, i suggest you to find the details and call on customer care contact number. Hope that your problem will be done on the call itself. If you don't have the details of customer care contact numbers (toll free for most of the companies) for UK, USA and CANADA Regions. you may get it from this useful website customercaresupportnumber.com. just click on link provided for computers you will be detailed about various companies, select ASUS there you go.Hope your problem will be solved on the call itself

Is there a button or button combo on the keyboard to turn it on?
This simple command worked for me, let me know whether it did for you: yum install gstreamer
