    I recently upgraded my system from Windows XP SP2 to SP3 and installed onenote 2010 professional office 2010 but still not active. I found if I maintain my system, and cannot be used as alarm clock, sound and wireless.

    When I click the speaker button, I can hear the sound of 'Bang', which implies a mistake, and a pop-up box displays saying that «...» No audio mixer table cannot be found... ». I can't play music or watch the video.

    When I find out wireless available in the range, he said: "another program manages wireless" these words. But I have installed no utility to manage my wireless.

    There could be another problem. So far, I find just above two.

    After the system restarts, everything is recovered, until next time, I stand by my system.

  • After the upgrade to Windows 10, I can't send mail from my IMAP account

    Upgrade to Windows 10 last night. Make a backup on MozBackup beforehand and restored after the download. I see all my messages in my Roadrunner and Gmail IMAP accounts. I can receive messages from all three types of accounts, but I can't send emails from the IMAP account. I checked that I have the right selected outgoing server. But whenever I try to send, I get the error:

    An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded:
    Action taken not requested: the mailbox not available
    Invalid DNS MX or the A/AAAA resource record.
    Please check the recipient of the "[email protected]" message and try again.

    Although looks like your new update of windows 10 has not the right or any other DNS servers set up. Thus, when Thunderbird is trying to send a mail it it looks like for the server and there is no... you can navigate t goole, com using this machine and one web browser other than the one provided with windows 10.

    The alternative is the email address your shipment to the a in the faulty DNS entry

    Research here shows that this is the case. The field of your shipment at all simply not exist in DNS.

  • Volume controls on the keyboard after the upgrade to Windows 8

    I have a Touchsmart 520-1070 with the mouse and keyboard without wire factory.  After the upgrade to WIndows 8, the volume controls no longer work.  I tried the Recovery Manager to reinstall the keyboard drivers, but there is no driver keyboard under hardware drivers.

    In the following device manager are listed under keyboards:

    HID keyboard device

    Keyboard 109 MCIR Microsoft eHome

    Keyboard MCIR Microsoft eHome

    Microsoft eHome key remove control Keayboard

    PS/2 standard keyboard

    Any report that they are installed and are working correctly and that the drivers are up to date.

    Has anyone else seen or solved this problem with a Touchsmart computer?

    The instructions below were provided by HP support.  This has restored the function on the keyboard volume controls.  The referenced below drivers are drivers IDT high definition Audio Device.  I am not sure that it was necessary to reinstall the audio drivers.  It can only had to remove the USB dongle and back to restore the functionality of the button.  Note: the USB dongle is located behind the VESA Panel to the back of the PC.  No tools are required and the dongle can be removed and replaced without shutting down the PC.  VESA panel removal requires a bit of a steady hand, pulling the lip which is close to the connections on the rear panel.

    Instructions received from HP:

    Please go to the following link and check the "return of the system", article #7 is the USB dongle:

    Cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10. Have removed the device, but try to re install the printer when is not found. Can print if I connect USB. Tried to reload the driver using HP Support software help, but when he arrives at the end of the download fails.

    Hi @Ron9871,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you are unable to get your printer HP Photosmart C6280 wireless printing. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 10).

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note: the IPV4 IP.
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.

    Please restart the router, the printer and the computer in this sequence.

    If you're still having problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.  The Network Setup page shows the parameters of network for the product. To print this page; Press the button of network () on the control panel of the product.

    It is a common problem with updates of .NET. Here are the steps I follow

    First try this...

    Download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework repair tool , then visit Windows Update and let it try to reinstall updates. Once it's done, scan again with Windows Update to ensure that they properly installed.

    If the above does not make it...

    Open Add or remove programs, click on .NET 3.5 and choose repair. I got around to test if this fix actually .NET 2.0 and 3.0 of the .NET also, but it's worth it. I do not know if it can also cancel updates already installed .NET. If so, they will reinstall when you perform a Windows update that is the next step after the repair.

    If the repair does not fix it, will add and remove programs and uninstall the .NET Framework 3.5, 2.0, then 3.0.
    Visit Windows Update, select Custom scan and under software, optional install this...

    It must be installed by itself. Windows Update will not let you do otherwise.

    When he did install (I forgot if she asks for a restart or what not), scan again and all updates for .NET 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 of the .NET .NET must appear. Choose to install.
    A new analysis to ensure that they properly installed.

    If all goes well, that will solve the problems you face.

    Make sure you come back and let us know which method worked for you or if you still have problems, I have to run a cleaning tool.

    Good luck!

  • Laptop Compaq CQ58: LAN Ethernet does not work after the upgrade to windows 8.1

    After the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1, my Ethernet LAN is no longer in effect. Wireless LAN connectivity is OK. I run the HP Support Assistant and downloaded the drivers for 8.1. Hovever, I don't see a listed 8.1 for the LAN Ethernet driver.

    It seems that you encounter the same problem, I did when I ran the free preview of the W10. I had this error on the card reader.  I have no idea how to solve this problem.

    Is there is no ethernet controller needing drivers in Device Manager, then it is probably the realtek lan adapter that has the number 12 of the code, or it is part of the motherboard that controls the ethernet adapter.

    If you need Atheros bluetooth driver, then this is probably the one you need.

    http://h20565.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=ob_127984_1

    Unfortunately, I won't be able to help you with question 12 code or ethernet.

    IMO, they are insoluble.
