In my case I have an HP Elitebook 8570w and had the same issue reported here.  I had VMWare Workstation 9 working with out issue with a Windows 7 host and Windows 7 guest.  I wiped my laptop and installed Windows 8.1 with VMWare Workstation 10 and added a Windowws 8.1 guest.The integrated web cam worked fine on my Windows 8.1 host, but when I tried to disconnect it from my host and connect it to the Windows 8.1 guest that I have I would receive an error from Workstation 10 indicating that the driver installation failed.  After some research I found that the driver installed on the host for the web cam was a generic driver installed by Windows 8.1.  I then grabbed the updated driver from HP and everything is working for me now.
