Add Wizard hardware detects new hardware when I don't have any new material

Recently and all of a sudden, the Hardware Wizard detects new hardware.  I don't have all new equipment installed. What is the solution?

Hello

1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
2. check what hardware wizard detects new, printer, USB... ?

I suggest you follow the Microsoft article and check if it helps.

The new hardware wizard may detect the printer device after every restart of the computer: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/298370

  • I get error messages on my dial-up connection when I don't have a dial-up access!

    Original title: "Windows Mail problem"

    When you use Windows Mail, I got error messages on my dial-up connection when I don't have a dial-up access! Is no more, I can send or receive mail using windows mail. I have a connection high speed and have never had this problem before? Can you help me?

    In Windows Mail, go to select Tools, accounts, your account email, properties, connection. It shows for the connection?
    You should leave this setting not selected, in this case Windows Mail will use any connection IE uses.
     
    In addition, under Tools, Options, connection, the first checkbox must be checked, and the second box unchecked.
     
    If you still have the same problem later, the account may be damaged. Remove account, restart Windows Mail, and then recreate the account.

  • Password reset disk wizard wants to use Drive F - I don't have an F drive

    Desktop HP Pavilion p6610f Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit installed Just the new hard drive and all the new updates and new programs etc.  I created the repair disk system and a full backup and wante to create a password reset disk. When I click on 'Create a password reset disk' in the control panal and I begin to follow the wizard, it asks me to put a key memory in drive F.  I don't have USB keys or disks if that's what is meant.  I was going to use a DVD - RW disc, but of course, I am unable to do so.  Why does say to create a 'DISC' in one place, and then when I go there, it says that I have to use a 'KEY' 'DRIVE F "?  If I buy a USB flash drive, which is identical to a key memory? And... I have several USB ports, none of them can be used with the USB to store data or memory?  I looked in the 'Help' section and he said just to click on "create a 'Disk' password reset. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

    Thank you for your time, but I already did the cover, back, vision of diagnostics and repair of disks.  I just asked why, when it is suggested that I create a 'PASSWORD' reset disk, when I start to do exactly that, the wizard tells me that I have to use a USB, 'NO' a 'DISC' and use the 'F' reader which I did not, (I don't think), I mean I know there are additional slots for disks , but I don't think I have other than those that I used to do the other ' Just discs in case where.  Just curious.  I have resigned myself to not do a. I wrote my password on a piece of paper and taped it on the underside of the top of a desk, where nobody would ever think to look.

  • Why my 6s Iphone says that I used 44,59 GB of data and documents when I don't have? Recently updated to iOS 9.2.1 and having problems.

    I bought the new 6 s iPhone with 64 GB of storage in December. A few days ago I updated to iOS 9.2.1 and I got a notification the next day saying that my storage was almost full. I was shocked because I have not yet used half of the 64 GB and before I upgraded to the latest updated everything worked well. Also, on a side note, game Center does not work and when I try to open the app it's just a blank screen and when I go into settings, click on the play icon, it does not even open.

    Back to the problem of storage, I don't not even use a lot of my storage upward. Look at the photo for reference. This photo was taken after I updated.

    So I am very confused right now with my phone and I have only had it a month ago and it's already the case. It does not make sense to me to have only 4.84 GB free. I used 6,76 Go on applications, and I have 20 apps and I understand that, but whence this other 44 gb?

    Why do we say I used 44,59 GB of data and documents when I don't? Could be a problem due to the update to iOS 9.2.1?

    Connect your phone to iTunes on your computer and see what the ability the bottom bar shows for storage. You can have one large amount of 'other' data which may indicate a corrupted sync or corrupted update. If you have backed up with iTunes before you update, try to restore the backup.

  • How can I reinstall windows vista when I don't have the CD?

    I have a problem with my windows vista and I need a new facility, the problem is that I don't have the CD because it was installed when I bought the laptop.
    My windows is Vista Business, SP2, 32-bit, 2007!

    Thank you!

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • How to install Windows 7, when I don't have an installation disc?

    My lap top was installed with windows 7 when buying, but I did have all the disks with it, but now 2 years later I had to have the hard drive replaced but I don't have the disc of windows 7, but I still have my code to use how to get windows 7 new?

  • Provides continuously updated Office when I don't have Office

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    My computer came preloaded with a trial version of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007. I uninstalled since then. Even if she is no longer installed on my computer, Windows Update continues to harass me with Office updates I don't want or don't have. I have all the updates installed, even a handful of previous updates of Office when I had the software installed. Since I have no Office, I have no use for updates more to it. So I would like to know how to stop this nagging incessant Office Update.

    I would appreciate an actual useful answer, and not just a copy - paste no relevant auto answer. Thank you.
