Cannot find programs after updating graphics drivers.

After reading the many threads I did not no one to help my particular error.

After the update my graphics driver I no longer get the runtime error, BUT what did he do (before the update of the driver) was unistall most of my programs, including MS office 2012 and my anti-virus. I was able to reinstall my anti-virus, but could someone inform me how to recover my other programs. Their relocation is not good because they are apparently still there somewhere, but not according to the research of the C drive.

Have tried the system restore with no joy.

Thank you

  • Firefox will not hold, but shows in the Task Manager, after updating graphics drivers from AMD 13.1.

    Hello

    After update for drivers AMD 13.1 on my 5770, Firefox will not launch; It doesn't, however, appears in the Task Manager. I want to emphasize that it will boot into Windows safe mode; When I opened it in safe mode, I used this time to deactivate all plugins, modules, extensions and created a new profile. This did not help. I also tried launching Firefox in its safe mode and had no luck with that either.

    I encountered this problem once before, when trying to upgrade to an earlier version. I think I was moving from 12.1 to 12.4, but I'm not 100% sure of that. In the end, my solution was then to retrograde back to my previous driver. The steps mentioned in the previous paragraph has not helped at that time, not do a complete reinstall.

    experience of 15 years, and that computer repair baffled me.

    Thanks to all those who might be able to help.

  • Cannot run programs after updates

    On 17 downloaded and installed updates, Service pack 2 for windows, service pack 2 for Office 2007, update KB967642 for office, 5 a security updates for office, silver lamp, after that, I found that all installed widows games ie. solitair, spiders etc: wouldn't, for game executable error XXX has stopped working. This has happened once before and after contacting the provider of my PC, we finished by performing a restore factory setting which has removed all installed programs. I don't want to do what I've only had the PC since January 2009 and already done 2 reset factory for similar reasons. I also now had a breakdown with an audio editing program that has bad but on the import of a music file, the program closes. I uninstalled all updates except office service Pack 2 and update 967642 KB giving not the option uninstall programs and features which had no effect on the games. I uninstalled the software for the program audio and reinstalled from the CD of the program, but I still have the same problem. I could not perform a restore as there is no restore point before the installation of the update. The factory reset was carried out on May 11, 2009, the date where the full system has been updated. My OS is Vista Home premium Acer Aspire M3201, processor Quad-Core AMD Athlon (TM) 9150e 1.80 GHz. ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics onboard, the DD Realtek Audio Manager. Is it possible to restore these items and all the other programs that I've not yet used and can be done? I'm only a user base with no or very little technical knowledge.

    Hello PGSW,
     
    Good to see your reply, I'm sorry to hear that the issue is still unresolved.
     
    I would like to ask you a number of things:
     
    1 > please tell me the name of the system manufacturer.
     
    2 > you get an error when you try to use the windows movie maker or windows media player.
     
    3 > if you do not insert a CD or DVD you are able to use Windows media very good player?
     
    I suggest you to check the sound and pilots display in Device Manager and update with the latest and check.
     
    You can also try to do a scan online virus bygoing to: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm
     
    Once you are on the home page, click on "full service scan" and make a scan of the computer.

  • Pavilion G7-1150us: No. update graphics drivers...

    I can't find updated graphic drrivers to date anywhere. Where can I find the updated graphics drivers? I have an Intel graphics card, and I have tried (almost) everything.

    Sorry, but HP is only provide drivers for Windows 7 on this model. Windows update should offer a driver for Intel HD integrated graphics card on your computer.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Satellite Pro A300-1DZ cannot find HDD after BIOS update

    Hello world

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ flea market.
    Put a new copy of Windows xp family.
    I then install all the drivers necessary own site of Toshiba and the end of it, I thought that it is perhaps a good idea to update the bios?

    OH DEAR what a big mistake.

    Now the netbook won't start windows.
    So I thought it's ok, I'll just start from the begginning and reinstall windows again, but he tells me that it cannot find a hard drive on my netbook?

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm going crazy,
    Could someone tell me please how to fix this? Thanks x

    Hello

    I think the value of the option SATA AHCI and hence Windows XP mode cannot find the HARD drive.
    It's because of the SATA controller.
    You can set the SATA AHCI compatible mode mode mode and this will allow you to install Win XP on the laptop without the use of SATA drivers.

    So, you have two options if you want to install Win XP:

    -> AHCI mode, but you must include the SATA drivers
    Compatible mode-> Win XP installation possible without SATA drivers

    Hello

    Check with support of the manufacturer to system and device video/display as they
    are those who write the drivers. Also check with their forums as it could be called
    questions. These companies write drivers.

    For the problem of freezing at startup.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

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

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows

    Try to reset the default settings of the bios as follows.

    HI guys,.

    Not sure if it's a coincidence, but after update my iOS 10 s 6, my Windows 7 laptop cannot recognize the iPhone as a drive or a drive so that I can open and shoot pictures on my PC. It was that the laptop only opens a window "auto play" when the iPhone was connected, thanks to which I could open the drive and see all the photos from my camera roll. Now, he will even appear in the file Explorer despite syncing with iTunes without any problems.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.
