Cannot install drivers for nothing - Windows Vista 64-bit

I have a laptop Dell - Inspiron, with Windows Vista 64-bit. I just bought a HP Deskjet 3054 A multifunction printer and my computer will not install the drivers.  I had a Canon printer and had removed all software before you try to add the HP.  I even tried to reinstall, and each time to get a message to both say he is unable to install the drivers.  I currently have a windows update waiting for an update for the processor intel and it also will not be installed. This problem does not seem to be specific to the device, but rather a problem with Windows Vista and after reading a lot of discussion seems to be common.  But I still have no idea how to fix this.

Have you tried to delete the file INFCACHE.1? Deleting the file INFCACHE.1 will force Windows to rebuild the file INFCACHE.1 next time window is looking for drivers.

  • Qosmio F10 - cannot install drivers for some hardware components

    Hello

  • LaserJet P1102w: Laserjet P1102w cannot activate the installation with Windows Vista 32 bit PC computer wireless

    Hello forum HP, I can use the Laserjet P1102w with USB connection on 3 different devices including a portable Apple and PC Windows Vista and Windows 7 laptop computer, but can not perform a wireless installation with the broadband internet connected wireless PC running Windows Vista 32 bit. The main message is that the computer does not find the printer even when using the USB connection. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi @Kaiser3107,

    Welcome to the HP Support forum.

    I understand that you have a HP LaserJet Pro P1102w printer that connects three thin devices via the USB port, but you can not perform a wireless installation on a fourth device, equipped of Windows Vista 32-bit, because the PC does not detect the printer via the USB port. I would like to help with that.

    Here is a support document which includes 'USB device is not detected by Windows' which can help the issue of detection - Troubleshooting (Windows Vista) USB connections.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  • Cannot install drivers for Deskjet 3650 in Windows 7 XP

    I have a HP Deskjet 3650 which is connected through the USB port on my primary computer running Windows 7.  I can print without problem, I have problems sharing this printer with 2 other computers running Windows XP.  I downloaded the drivers for XP and excerpts on the Windows 7 computer.

    On the properties of the printer HP Deskjet 3600 series, I clicked on the sharing tab.

    Share this printer and rendering of printing on client computers are both checked.

    When I click on additional drivers, only X 64 is checked and said yes less installed.

    The two other options (Itanium and x 86) are both unchecked and say no less installed.

    I tried x 86 control and clicking on OK.  Then I am asked to install print drivers and browse to where are printer drivers.  I navigate to the 3600, enu, pilots, win2k_xp folder and see hpf3600k.inf when I click Open, then select OK, I get a selected printer driver not found error that indicates the specified location does not contain the driver for hp deskjet 3600 series (BOBO) on the architecture of processor required.

    On one of the XP machines, I installed the printer software and am not able to print if I physically plug the printer on it.

    On another XP machine, I have installed the printer software, but I download and extract the drivers.  When I click on the Add Printer Wizard and select the printer on the network, it tells me that I'm about to connect to a printer on the computer Windows 7 and says that it will automatically install a print on my machine driver.  I click Yes to allow him to continue and he told me that the server for the hp deskjet 3600 printer doesn't have the installed printer driver and I can click OK to search for the correct driver.  I click OK and navigate to the folder I extracted the drivers to and see that hpf3600k.inf is located in the folder and click OK and I get a window of driver error install that says that Windows cannot locate a suitable printer driver.  To help locate and install a suitable driver, contact your administrator.

    So, it seems to me that the driver that I downloaded on the site of hp for Windows XP is not the correct driver, am I wrong here?

    How can I get this printer to print on all 3 computers work without having to move from one to the other.  The printer must be physically connected to the Windows 7 computer, as the other 2 are in children's rooms.

    Try the following: on the machine XP go to the printers and Faxes folder, add a local printer, printer, create a Port, Local Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the name of the actual share of the shared computer and printer), OK, and then click disk and point to the directory where you unzipped the driver XP.

    On the XP machine, you have already installed the driver do the following: go to the printers and Faxes folder, right click on the Deskjet 3650, select Properties, Ports, the port, Local port Add, new Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the name of the shared computer and printer), OK.

  • HP Laserjet MFP M127fn Pro: Cannot install drivers for printer HP Laserjet Pro MFP computer M127fn on the new laptop from acer windows 10

    This is my third attempt failed to install new drivers for the Laserjet Pro M127fn MFP printer on my laptop Acer windows 10 OEM. I used the HP installer with no customiztion of components (the default recommended) with USB cable connection. It goes up to the product configuration step 99% and then gives the error: "an installation operation took too long to run. It is a fatal error, preventing the use of the product.

    I also tried to use interface devices and printers after restart the computer by selecting Add Printer option, it seemed to have installed the printer but it couldn't print the test page. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Printer navigate through the Setup menu using the left and right arrows and locate the Service menu.

    Search for HP Smart Install option in the Service menu (it may appear and may not be no depanding on the version of your printer), if it is there, select Disable for HP Scmart Install.

    In your PC click on the right button on the start menu and select Control Panel, then select View devices and printers.

    Do not forget to remove any icon (the M127 or any other driver HP) HP printer by clicking the icon and selecting Remove the device, and then restart the computer.

    Go back to the devices and printers any queue remains left by clicking once, then select press the print server properties in the top menu bar.

    Select any listed HP printer driver and select Remove, make sure to select the 2nd option to delete the printer and its driver package.

    From the control panel home, type "change device Installation settings and open the option, then select No and confirm with OK."

    Now, try to reinstall the most recent drivers and check for the difference.

  • Cannot install drivers for HD Audio win 7 64 Pro Windows default for generic HD driver

    Hi all

    I pray that someone can enlighten me as to how to install the correct audio drivers HD in Win 7 Pro instead of generics.

    The motherboard is an Asus Rampage Extreme and the sound card is a PCIe that accompanies the Board of Directors. The manual calls what it a 'card SupremeFX X - Fi' my system is a dual boot with XP on another partition, the sound works fine, XP, with all the extras, I need.

    If I go to Device Manager and remove the existing driver, and then when I try to install the ones I want, I get a message saying ' cannot find a device supported on this machine. "and the installation program quits.

    Of course when I reboot 7 wants to reinstall what he thinks is right. I'm at square one!

    Once the proper drivers are installed, I can then install the Creative Sound Launcher located in the Tools menu. It gives me a graphic equalizer, a Crystallizer and many other controls for the sound card. I can install these items listed, but none of them will any work without the correct driver.
    They have simply open and refuse to work saying "Device supported by this application is not found on this computer."

    I need a way to install the Asus / drivers Creative instead of the 7 seems to think are "correct."

    Nowhere for the MB manual called the card its a 'creative', but it is quite possible that the software package that comes with it has creative name on it in the world.

    A search of the site Creative shows no drivers for a card with the name that I mentioned above.

    Asus forum do not know more so here!

    Thank you all in advance!

    The dual boot is your problem. Why do you always need XP?

    And you're going to have things the wrong way!

    You need specific drivers XP on this partition and specific drivers W7 on that partition.
    See you soon,.
    Jerry

    HI Jerry,

    Thanks for the reply. I don't know how I mislead you with my ad. I said that the sound is FINE under XP it's W7 who "was" that is rampant in me.

    I eventually found the drivers from the Asus site and program utility that controls the different things like the EQ and others. Note that some of them were not in the right directory and I would have never thought to look under the heading where they have resided!

    I use XP because I have so much software that doesn't work on 7. I am also on disability and can't afford to start replacing and material. At the moment the dual boot is a solution very, I see using a virtual machine in W7.

    Problem solved, I had needed was someone to Asus who has understood my dilemma.

    See you soon

  • Cannot install drivers for AIO Printer 924

    I recently bought a new PC running on Windows 8 (took me a while to get used to!) and wanted to connect my Dell AIO 924 printer/Scanner to the new PC.  I followed the advice given - the PC configuration change settings - devices - add a device.  I put the CD of driver & utilities belonging to the printer in the DVD/CD drive.  When I check on devices, I think the 924 AIO listed but it says driver is not available.  I also tried to install using the Control Panel - Add a device, but after research it just says not: no devices found. It detects I have a scanner connected to the computer but not a printer.

    jean9,

    Try this procedure and see if it works...

    To the best of my knowledge, window 8 is not supported for this printer. You can try this, it may or may not work...

    First run, delete print jobs to eliminate any print job stuck in the queue.

    Unplug the printer.

    Download and run the patch (cleaning printer utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.

    Restart your computer. Make sure that the printer is deleted. Driver Manual printer removal

    Download the 32-bit drivers for Windows 8 32 bit Vista or 64-bit drivers for 64 bit Vista Windows 8. Install the Vista drivers in Vista compatibility mode, you will get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at the moment (power on).

  • Cannot install drivers for xbox 360 wired controller.

    Original title: How can I install my controller wired correctly?

    I'm trying to install the drivers for my xbox 360 wired controller, that I bought from Gamestop on my Toshiba Qosmio x-870 running windows 7 64 bit. When I plug the controller into the usb port, the drivers are automatically downloaded, but for some reason any cannot be installed. I tried the driver downloaded from the Microsoft Web site software. I also tried to uninstall the controller and try again. Any advice?

    Try the controller on another computer and see if it works, or take the controller back and exchange it for another.

    I have one on my computer and installed Windows 7 drivers automatically when I plugged the controller works fine.

  • Cannot install drivers AMD under Windows 8 (g7 1220sm pavilion)

    Hello

    can anyone help? The laptop has Intel HD and Radeon 6470 M graphics.

    I'm running out of ideas, why AMD for Windows 8 64-bit drivers do not install the display driver.

    It installs the Manager caralyst, APP and the Intel thing, but don't know the display driver installation.

    So I tried to manually select the INF file in device--> driver update manager, and it says that the driver is not compatible with the graphics card.

    How it is not compatible, if it is on the HP site for my laptop model correct?

    In Device Manager there is always to the graph by default card, there is no icon of the center of catalyst on right click of the mouse or anywhere else, as if nothing has been installed.

    But in the Add / Remove programs can I uninstall AMD drivers, so they ARE installed, just without the display driver.

    The AMD from Windows Update driver update, it goes to 7400 M in Device Manager, but after restart windows it says:

    Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

    Also installation in Windows 7 AMD compatibility mode drivers does not work. The log shows that the graphics card is not recognized.

    In Windows 7 everything works.

    Found a solution: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video/Windows-8-drivers-for-HP-notebooks-with-switchable-graphics/m-p/2174259#M58328

    BUT now I can not change the brightness with the F2/F3 keys.

    When you install the Intel HD graphics driver again, it disables the AMD graphics card...

  • Update code A 80071, 90, also the message cannot install update for microsoft windows KB978262 ActiveX stop bits

    I have many facilities update unresolved that failed, of which several have been labeled 'critical' is it possible that these updates were for windows 7 instead of my program which is the version of microsoft windows vista 6.0 over a few more numbers after that.

    Try to download and install manually by download on your desktop and install them one by one. Insert the number of KB to get updates on the right and choose the one corresponding to your version of Vista: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx.  It is not possible for Windows Update in order to send updates for the wrong operating system (but I can't go further and say that it is impossible, even if I never heard talk of such a thing).

    If this does not work, try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 and then make the facilities.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.
