After you install Windows XP service pack 2 on my computer the disc cd player no longer works. In addition, my printer will not work.

  • After that I put a disc in the drive it will reopen its doors.
  • I get no response when I try to print, as many ways as I can think, I used.

If you go to the computer mftr's site. and looking for drivers for your specific model computer, they will be good. If there is a choice (as it often is with Dell machines for example), if you happen to download the wrong driver he just would not install or wouldn't work. No grand. But given that your computer is running, open the Device Manager and write the names/models of your hardware first. Then you'll know if you have an Intel card or a wireless Dell (for example). If the update of drivers will solve your problems I can't say because obviously I can't see and test your computer for myself. But it should not damage the computer. If you're worried, take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place) and have them tested and secure it.

  • After you install Windows XP Service Pack 3, my computer keeps restarting on repeatedly. How can I resolve this problem and use Service Pack 3?

    I downloaded Windows XP Service Pack 3, yesterday, Microsoft's official site, and after that I managed to install successfully, it makes my computer continuously.

    I searched this problem with Service Pack 3, and he seems to have an impact on nearly everyone who uses it.
    I also searched for solutions to this problem, but they do not work for me after that I tried them.
    I would greatly appreciate anyone who has solved this problem and did Service Pack3 achievable without having their computer restarted constantly.

    Hi Robert,.

    I managed to solve the WinXP SP3 reboot loop by reinstalling WinXP fully and then install SP3.
    Now, the reboot loop disappeared and I can use SP3 without any problem.
    Thank you very much for your help and assistance.
    I really appreciate it.

  • Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    Windows XP SP3 problem

    Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

    This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

    It's certainly interesting!

    If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
    SHOULD work!
    I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
    Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
    and try the SP3 Setup file again.
    But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
    1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
    2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.

  • 0x800F0826 error code when you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1

    I bought Adobe Creative Suite CS4, so the installer tells me that I am in need of Vista Service Pack 1 to continue to install the programs. So, naturally, I go online and try to find the Service Pack 1. Mind you, I was never even offered the service pack via Windows Update... I wasn't even aware that they came out with ALL the service packs for Windows Vista. I am running Home Premium, by the way.

    So find a download of the Service Pack and it ends after about an hour and a half. I'm going to install the service pack, and everything seems to go well until a few hours later when I get back to my computer and I have a message waiting on my office saying that the installation has failed. I studied the error code I received online (0x800F0826), and I noticed that a lot of people said it had to do with the updates that had already failed to install on Windows Update. Well, a lot of commentators on the issue suggested looking in Windows Update history and are looking for any updates. Well, it turns out that I have TONS that had failed in the past. I read that the updates that had a different other than 0x800F0826 error code were probably the cause of the problem. Well, they ALL have a different other than 0x800F0826 error code.

    What I noticed though, is that all have the error code: 80070057. I was eager to get a glimpse of this problem pretty quickly because I have a class to come within 10 days that requires the use of Adobe CS4 software and I can not install it until I get the service pack work! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you.

    Hi notpaul,
    If you have not yet resolved this so I will answer your questions regarding upgrade\restore.  If you have a bunch of updates failed and are not offered SP1, the faster would be to do a factory restore.  Then immediately, run Windows Update until you are offered are no longer updated.  Then you can reinstall the programs and data.
    If you want to upgrade to Windows 7, so make sure that you perform the custom installation.  This option will do a clean install of the operating system.  You will need to reinstall your programs and would need to make a backup of all your data before the installation.  Here is a link to Windows 7 install information.

  • It does not start after you install windows 7 on an SSD without going into the bios and clicking on the reader.

    Will change the bios fix it?  If yes how?

    CharlesR salvation,

    This concern is usually caused by an incorrect configuration of the BIOS of your device settings. If you have recently installed Windows 7, then most likely the boot priority is always set to the optical drive or USB (depending on which you have used in the installation of Windows 7).

    The BIOS settings are dependent on the manufacturer of your device, this is why we invite you to contact the manufacturer of your device for assistance by changing its settings.

    Kind regards

  • After you install Windows Live Mail, he keeps trying to attribute the .eml file type to itself.

    On my office workstation (Windows Server 2008 R2), I use Outlook 2010 to network and business-related emails.  I installed Live Mail 2011 for my personal mail (hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc) in order to keep it separate and open it only once or twice a day.  I said to Live Mail was not the client by default, but all 60 seconds or so he tries to assign the .eml file type to itself in any case (even if it is not running).  I've got WinPatrol keeping my setup, but I don't want to say no to him, "do not allow this change" once per minute.  How can I send live to accept his secondary position and stop trying to run away with the .eml file type?

    original title: let my Filetype Alone!

    There is no default program to manage the eml file type in Server 2008 R2, and is not one that is recognized by Outlook.  I would suggest you go ahead and set the eml file type opened by WLM under control panel | Default programs.  Then you can leave it alone, I hope.  If not, then ask in the forum here WLM: www.windowslivehelp.com
