  • Windows 7 starter system tray icon problem

    Hello

    Recently, I met a problem with my wifi icon in the system tray. At startup, the icon does not and continues to lead the blue sign loading. On right click, it turns into a different icon with a red x. To the left by clicking on the icon does absolutely nothing however other icons work perfectly well. The section in the control panel associated with networking also does not.

    I am able to access the internet on some sites. Some sites like hotmail etc do not load.

    I tried to reboot in safe mode, and there is no problem however, troubleshooting doesn't show anything wrong. Enter services.msc, there is nothing to slow down the computer.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - writing version - click on Update Driver (can not do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Even for network (NIC) card - then right click on the devices and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stacks.

    Now go look at the site of the manufacturer of the system for the updated drivers.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Windows 7 like the updated drivers.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to turn off the pilot facilities in Windows updates, that leaves is to Windows Update, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it), then go get new ones manually if you wish.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 LM726AV: upgrade Windows 10 problem

    Running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium SP1 update.  Try to upgrade to Windows 10.  Never received 10 Windows icon in the taskbar.  Downloaded the file "GetWindows10" several times by going with HP Support Assistant and directly to the web page of MS Windows 10.  (Both lead to the same web page.)  When I double click on the file GetWindows10 it brings up a window asking if I want to run it.  I click on "Run" and it will immediately without doing anything.  No message on what could be the problem.  (I've already installed Windows 10 on laptop Dell woman with no problems.)  Because this Windows 7 came with my HP laptop, is there something different that prevents Windows 10 from loading?  Or any other suggestions?

    Paul,

    Thank you very much it worked very well.  I write what happened in case someone else has this problem and reads this.  I went on the website of Windows 10 you recommended which was different from the one that I had been responsible for front.  This one also had a button for Windows 10 so I tried that first.  You download a file "GetWindows10" which was different from that of the other site.  However, he had the same results: she did nothing.  So, I went back on the site to create a DVD that you recommended.  I clicked on the tool of creation of media upload you a file to the media tool.  Opening this file has two options.  We want to install 10 Windows on this computer, and the other was to create a file that will be used on other computers.  I assumed it was just an option to download different ISO on DVD files.  I clicked on the installation of 10 Windows on this computer option and he proceeded to download Windows 10 and install it on the computer without the creation of a DVD.  He worked mainly as clicking the icon of Windows 10 that my wife had on his cell phone.  Why the "GetWindows10" file did not work and this process worked very well took place are a mystery to me.

  • Since the update of the 16 to 17, shortcuts to office created by dragging show generic Windows icon instead of the Firefox-page icon.

    During the upgrade of the FF 16 or 17, I can always drag the icon that is to the left of the url on the desktop (or even quick launch of XP, shortcuts to files, etc.) to create an internet shortcut to the current page. However, with 17 this method produces a shortcut that shows a generic Windows icon instead of a Firefox-page icon. Even if a generic Windows icon shows normally "no associated program," these always open with FF when double-clicked. But it does not look good. (BTW, all of the shortcuts created by this method in FF 16 or less preserved the FF-page 17 updated icon.)

    No idea why this has changed and how to fix it so that it looks the same as before?

    Pending the resolution of the present (and another question) I went back to 16 FF, and it works normally again. However, shortcuts that were created while I had 17 always display the generic Windows icon.

    fixed in Firefox 21 - this old thread from blocking

    As far as I know here in Europe, you will not be able to recovery media order for the laptop models to the United States. If you have a person in the United States, they must contact the nearest authorized service provider and order it for you. Later they send it to you.

    If you need to address and http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp?nav=Repair&sn=false check phone numbers

    Good bye

  • p6310f: Windows Update problem

    When you try to upgrade to windows 10 I received the error message 0 x 80080005 - 0 x 90016 after watching in Microsoft support forum, I found that the problem was related to windows 7 is not not to date. I checked and found that my computer has stopped udating a couple of years. I tried to run Fixit MS that has not worked. Tried to reboot (BITS) and got ERROR 126 (module not found) I then followed the instructions at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2700567 on how to reset the Windows Update components. During the process, I have the following errors:

    Mshtml.DLL loaded, but the dllregisterserver entry point was not found.

    Shdocvw.dll "" ""

    browseui.dll   "                "                    "                     "

    MSXML.dll Module could not load make sure that binary is stored at the specified location the specified module could not be found.

    Actprxy.dll Failed is not found

    gpkcsp.dll        "        "           "             "

    wuweb.dll      "            "           "              "

    muweb.dll    "            "              "            "

    I guess my question is what I have to do a restore of the system under windows 7, before I can upgrade to windows 10? Or y at - it another way?

    Hello glockrow ;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I read your post about windows update problems and wanted to help.

    I would that be able to say that updating to Win10 was an exact science where we know exactly how he does it, and what it should - but the flooding of this and other instances of Win10 problem after that problem indicates that, at best, we are all guessing.

    So, I think, from what I've read and done on my PC, is that you SHOULD be able to avoid the problem of missing updates by updating using Win10 created using this MS link media: 10 Windows Installer using the media - Windows help authoring tool

    After you create the DVD or USB, NOT boot from it. Instead, insert it into your PC and, if it does not auto-start, right click on the file setup.exe and run it.

    HOWEVER - and this is important - PC Win7 have a rate low success updated Win10 without problem - primariluy lack of OEM Win10 drivers.  Typical problems include display artifacts (to cause to be obliged to use the driver for the card of Microsoft Basic), not wireless and touchpad problems.  The drivers Microsoft provides have only the most basic features, with none of the extras that the HP drivers bring to the stage.

    It is further complicated by the function Win10 GoBack, whereby you can return to your original operating system, being known to be unreliable. So when your upgrade machine malfunctioning, only then you discover that you cannot return the machine to work, that you had originally!

    You can protect yourself against ending up with a damaged machine - seriously considering using a free third-party product that works for airport Imaging/restoration - Macrium Reflect.

    Macrium reflect (MR) provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together.

    What I recommend is the following:
    (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
    (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
    (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

    NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

    So now you can recharge before with the upgrade, knowing that whatever happens, you will be able to return to your currently works in a few minutes.

    Good luck
