Hi maiwashie,

You may need to update the drivers for your camera after decommissioning. Read the following article about the drivers for XP:

  • Downgraded from Vista to XP BUT AUDIO does NOT WORK!

    Hello ~!

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6500 laptop with an AMD processor. Recently, I got drowngraded of Windows Vista to XP by following the guide on this site, but not install the audio drivers (Conexant High Definition Audio Driver) and so I have no sound. It says "ERROR - Driver Installation Failed: could not be found for this driver MEDIA." The same for the Modem driver and the MS - SAU (I tried first by following the instructions). What should I do to fix this? =(

    You use the part 2 of the Guide Downgrade XP drivers? Did you install Conexant using Device Manager as described?

    Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

    I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

    I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

    The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

    I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

    I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

    Any ideas please?

    > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
    I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters

    All 3 USB ports operate normally and at full speed, the Interface of data got to be something else.

    Thanks in advance for any advice or help

    I guess it will take a few days until that pilots will be released.

  • After downgrading from Vista Satellite L30-101 does not read DVD

    Hey,.

    Like many people, I didn't like Vista and so returned to the use of Windows XP.

    In doing so, I lost a lot of things like the ability to watch DVDs and sound, most of these problems fixed so easily by downloading the drivers from this site.

    However, even after the DVD driver download I can't read DVDs yet.
    When you try to play through Windows media player I get say error message that I did not have a MPEG-2 decoder, in the section web site help, it suggests where to get one, but you have to play for each other.
    After having one in the first place, I don't think I should buy a new one.

    If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appretiated if they could let me know.

    Thank you

    PS I have a Satellite L30-101

    I think you have a codec problem, but I'm not sure. Maybe you should install the latest version of Media Player and codec Xvid, DivX and AC3. These are free (google it!). Or you can try alternative software, such as WinDVD or PowerDVD, you can try the demo versions.

    Troubleshoot camera connection

    Vista references apply to Windows 7.

    You probably need to recharge the device drivers and any software control of the 'IF' camera, there is
    everything for Windows 7.

    Login as an administrator.

    Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
    on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
    is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
    software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

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

    to make sure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Then let windows updates on however prevent loading of drivers who are often older than the
    those that you have installed. If updates suggests a pilot and then HIDE it and watch manually to see if their
    really is a more recent version (at the time system manufacturer and the sites of the manufacturer of the device).

    NO ONE IN THE WORLD, WHO ATTEMPTED TO RESTORE THE SAVED ON THE VISTA FILES AND YOU WANT TO COPY TO WINDOWS8?

    Hello - for those who have a computer HP Vista MS, they provide a backup system that creates an .exe file called guess what? 'backup.1.exe' and a file 'backup2.fbw '.  Try to use google next time and look it up!

    Maybe you can Google to find an answer.  When was the last time you could make a backup of an any other operating system and restore it on a newer version?  Once you get this answer let us know.
    Guess what this backup is for HP computers running Windows Vista only!  Maybe if you understand how works the backup program you wouldn't be so rough for those of us who are trying to help.  But since you've already made your decision, you can Google how to do.  Sure that no one here will help you now.  Maybe HP will... for a price.

  • Downgrade from Vista to XP [DV2740SE]

    Hi all. I do a downgrade from Vista to XP and I can not foud the drivers.

    Can someone help me plese?

    THX.

    This Conexant posted to Skydrive is the same as the file Mediafire post by Mariza... which is, btw, his own personal discovery and seems better to work for a microphone. Get it if you have problems to Mediafire, like that sometimes.

    I think that Mariza said the Install.exe can be executed from it rather than having to use the Device Manager.

  • My CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.

    My readers Optiarc DVD - RW AD-7530 ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.
    Although of course, the CD-ROM drive worked during the upgrade.
    I noticed that when I turn firstly on the laptop, the last two lines of the front entry from Windows 7 are the following.
    PXE - E6i:Media Test Failure, Check Cable
    PXE - MOF: Exit PXE Rom
    During the audit of each Properties in Device Manager devices", I learned that they both work correctly.  In the list in the printers and the @Devices the only Webcam shown is also a "USB 2.0 Camera"
    Can someone help me please?
    Best regards
    John

    Besides what abdelhak says:

    The message of PXE boot that you receive when you start your computer has nothing to do with your CD/DVD-Rom drive. Your computer uses a PXE boot method to attempt to load Windows from a location on your network. Since you do not have this configuration, it is safe to ignore it. If it slows down the startup time of your system, contact your manufacturer and ask them for instructions on how to "disable PXE Network Boot of the BIOS.

    Hope this helps,
