• Integrated motion Eye webcam does not work after installation of own Windows 7 64 - bit (Sony VAIO VGN-AR770)

  Hi, I'm having so much worse for my webcam to work again after a clean installed Windows 7 64-bit (I used to run 32-bit vista). I searched the net and found many many people with the same problem but no solution yet that works for me. My last attempt:

  I manually installed these drivers recommended on this forum: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-hardware-devices/1135698.htm

  With the help of the method 'have disk '. Installation seemed to happen, but no program does not recognize my webcam. Skype, for example, seems to work, but the video is just black.

  In Device Manager > features the webcam is listed as "RY5U870/VGA-CAM F01_UVC of Imaging.
  "and noted that"this device works fine."" Many people have suggested to try to download the originals and installation using Vista compatibility, but I can't get these drivers to 64-bit, and when I download the 32-bit drivers, unfortunately they do not work.

  I understand that I hit a wall here on my laptop model Sony support (now obsolete), but I feel that there must be a work around that people found out there somewhere. Can someone help me get my webcam goes again?

  Which is determined by the manufacturer of the system.

  You'll maybe order new media recovery/restore and/or download an ISO of the edition of Windows 7 and the architecture you need, burn a DVD and perform a clean install to use it and the product key on the sticker on the system itself.

  Contact Sony and get a restore/recovery of them media

• Cannot find the driver for a sony vaio VGN-AR190G multimedia controller

  I can't find the multimedia driver for a computer, I installed Windows 7 32 bit, but Sony's site cannot give me a driver job. I have trie drivers XP Vista Drivers and nothing works. Can anyone help?

  Hi tygore7!

  If you visit the support page for this model, you can see that the drivers are not available for Windows 7.  This means that the unit is is not supported for Windows 7 by Sony.

  You are always welcome to install Windows 7, however there may be some features and function that are lost in this upgrade.

  Sony does not guarantee the XP / Vista drivers available for this model to work under Windows 7.

  I hope this helps.

• HP Pavilion 15 laptop (15-p264: cannot install Windows 8.1 (W8.1 pre-loaded) regular updates)

  I bought a new laptop HP Pavilion 15 (product number: LOE38EA #ABU) a few months as a backup to my desktop PC.  It works fine except that it won't install the usual Windows 8.1 updates (Windows 8.1 has been pre-loaded).

  It downloads OK but when I restart it installation I get the message 'fail updated widows configuration', and he comes back the changes.

  I thought that it might be due to the fact that I loaded a few old Windows XP software (which will actually OK) and so I uninstalled everything, but that didn't solve the problem.

  The only other thing I've done is to replace the protection installed with Norton antivirus software that I use on my desktop.

  The list of the 'updates' that I can not install works now at 31.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Please try one or two on the list. If ok, split the list to a few lots, do not combine them into one time.

  Kind regards.

• Can't uninstall DisplayLink Core Software on a laptop Sony Vaio (VGN-NR110E model) for a Windows Vista upgrade to Windows 7.

  Hi, I wonder if there is someone who can help me on this issue because it prevents me to install Windows 7 on my laptop.  I have a Sony Vaio VGN-NR110E model, and when I try to install Win7 it tells me that I must first uninstall DisplayLink Core Software.  I went to my control panel to uninstall the program, and it doesn't let me, saying another program he has in use.  On this forum, someone suggested that I'm trying to boot my laptop in safe mode, and it can allows me to remove the program there.  My concern with this would be if I remove this program in Mode safe, how could make sure I'd be able to re - install DisplayLink Core Software should anything go wrong when I try to install Win7?

  The other question I have is there are two other programs that appear to be linked to DisplayLink Core Software.  They are called SONY VGP-UPR1 and there is another utility called program SONY VGP-UPR1 (display Adapater). If I deleted those first, it seems that it can release DisplayLink Core software should be deleted.  In this case someone has already tried that and had success?

  Could someone install Windows 7 on a Sony Vaio VGN-NR110E?

  Hi RC2076,

  Welcome to Windows 7 answers Forum!

  From what I can see SONY VGP-UPR1is a USB docking station for VAIO, try to temporarily disable by right clicking on the program. You can go ahead and uninstall the software basis of DisplayLink, as long as you have the CD for this software.

  Once you are done uninstalling, you can install Windows 7 and later you install DisplayLink Core Software and select then the other two programs that are linked with the above mentioned software.

  You can also run the Upgrade Advisor and check it out. Here is the link to download the Upgrade Advisor.

• device driver Bluetooth for windows 7 64-bit sony vaio

  Hello

  I need device driver bluetooth for windows 7 64 bit for sony vaio

  device driver Bluetooth for windows 7 64-bit sony vaio

  Please help me

  -Nicolas

  After spending an obscene amount of time researching this Bluetooth stupid nonsense this week, I finally opted for a solution.

  This is how to solve the "Bluetooth peripheral device is not a driver:
  I use the following materials in a dozen different tests:
  -Only for Broadcom based on USB from Belkin and Targus dongles
  -Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on four different computers
  -4 different Bluetooth headphones: Plantronics One, a matrix and two Motorola
  -Bluetooth file transfer wasn't of interest, but I tested with two different phones
  This guide will be useful for those with similar... hardware configurations and for those who have tried all the other nonsense without result.  Especially that many times repeated "Just install Windows Mobile Device Manager."
  -- -- --
  Step 1: Ignore 99% of you think that you have learned about this problem.
  It will be * probably * boil down to a missing COM port.
  Step 2: Certainly ignore the bit about installing the Windows Mobile Device Center
  (Unless you have a Windows Mobile-based phone and/or have another use for a flavor of Windows 7 of Activesync).
  Step 3: Stop looking for a driver for something called a "Bluetooth device device.
  There is no such thing. If you look at the Bluetooth installation take place, you will notice that all the components of the Bluetooth technology initially as "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" and then once Windows ID each element, the appropriate driver is installed and the name replaces "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" to something like "Hands-free Bluetooth Audio" or "Bluetooth Remote Control" etc.
  -- -- --
  Unfortunately, most of the people reading this will have tried one or more of the following:
  1.) install this stupid Windows Mobile Device Center
  2.) install any number of drivers Bluetooth who-knows-what from who knows where
  (3.) running all kinds of utilities third driver
  4.), forcing several facilities from pilot to operate in Win98, XP or Vista
  5.) sacrificing countless animals
  The end result is a plethora of useless software and/or driver and/or updates... facilities and some dead animals.
  -- -- --
  Instead, here is the solution.  I tested it with three different USB Dongles (2 Belkin and Targus 1) and on four different machines: HP, Sony, Toshiba and another HP. Two were newly not framed with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and two have been upgraded to Vista to the same OS.
  With each machine, I plugged the following helmets: a legend of Voyager from Plantronics, Motorola S9, Motorola S805 and matrix AF62 and a Samsung S3 and an HTC Android.
  So I guess it's fair to say that it is a solution for one of these dongles... but in reality, most based on Broadcomm USB dongles is affected. I ran across these stages in four different boxes after checking that the beast ""Bluetooth peripheral device is not a driver " "
  appeared during installation.
  1.) If you did any of the unsuccessful steps mentioned above, enter the control panel and delete everything that you have installed.  Kill all the entries Broadcomm or Widcomm bluetooth. Delete all 3 rd-party driver maintenance apps. Restart a machine clean.
  2.) locate and install a Broadcomm 6.0.1.6300 OR 6.2.1.500 driver.  Either one works, but the last (most recent) has much better management tools for Bluetooth device
  .  I tested the installation of separately and also starting with 6.0.1.6300 and then upgrade to 6.2.1.500.
  (Ignore the stupid Updater Driver Broadcomm they grow to their website - it is useless for the majority of us out there.)
  (3.) that you install one of the above, you will see a notification regarding the installation of the various components.  Click this pop-up window and watch the progress.  You will see that each "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" Gets a new name, as the related driver is installed.  In my tens + tests, each & every item at this point got the green check mark of success.
  4.) now attempt to pair the device of your choice
  .  IF only the manufacturer provides separate drivers, do not install them again, regardless of their instructions.  See how Windows gets its own.
  5.) as soon as the match starts, you will see more notifications for individual driver components.  Click on one of them and observe a similar progression... Except that you will have a ""Bluetooth Device device ' with the dreaded Red X and the complaint that no driver was found. "
  6.) do not despair
  ! This happens the first time connect you a new Bluetooth device.
  7.) wait for the installation to complete.  Despite the dialog box display the list of components of Bluetooth with a red X, you probably have another window saying that the perfectly paired Bluetooth device.  But you and I know that he didn't. Confidently click to close this dialog box.
  8.) open Device Manager (via the Control Panel, the computer properties), and you will discover that cursed Device Bluetooth that is sitting there in the Middle under 'other devices '.
  9.) right click on the Bluetooth device with the yellow exclamation mark under 'Other devices' and select 'Update Driver' - then:
  Click on:
  a.) browse my computer for driver software
  (b) let me pick from a list of device on my computer drivers
  (c.) in the common hardware types list, select:
  --->>> Ports (COM & LPT)<>
  d.) d.) under manufacturer, select Microsoft
  e.) depending on the model, choose "Standard Serial over Bluetooth Link" & click "next".
  f.) when you are prompted with the update driver warning, click 'yes '.
  g.) with joy to read the message that "Windows has updated the driver software.
  (h.) read for pleasure, and then click "close".
  (i.) to confirm that this disorder is really fixed (assuming compatible devices, etc.) Right-click on the Bluetooth device and choose "Troubleshoot" - that there should be no reported problem.
  10.) you shouldn't have to restart, but you POURRIEZ have need spend the power of your Bluetooth device Off & turn it on again to let it reconnect again (just NOT re-pair... re - connect). About a dozen tests, I had only to do once, and it was with a 3-year-old-Bluetooth headset.
  -- -- --
  I have argued my way in the solution by installing on a Vista machine where everything worked perfectly.  After the installation of various devices under Vista, I spotted the COM Port in Device Manager - which was the only element that did not appear in the installation of Windows 7... but instead remained at the dreaded 'Bluetooth Device device".
  Windows Mobile thing worked only for some people because it was fundamentally address a bunch of different physical possibilities... but for those who did not have success, it's because Windows Mobile Kitchen Sink approach did not include the driver Port com
  -- -- --
  Voluntarily, I don't understand not all links to the drivers as one.) change links and b.) I don't want to be responsible for some knucklehead packaging site a Trojan horse in the zip file.  Let Google your friend and your instinct be your guide.
  I will say that I used a 6.0.1.6300 directly from the Belkin site and a 6.2.1.500 directly from the site of the bridge.
  I hope this saves people a lot of frustration.

  IMEI: 355891020417161

  I recently had some work to my computer and when I came back, my Adobe suite has been uninstalled.

  What steps should I take to re - install / checking the codes etc?

  Reinstall from the original with the original serial number disks. There is a good chance it will work. If she says "too many activations", you must contact Adobe.

  Please be aware that this is a public forum and all information that you post can be seen by the world. It's often a bad idea to post the serial numbers, because they can be stolen and Rob you of what you paid for. (Less a matter of concern for the machine numbers, but a real problem for the software). There is nothing that we can do your series of Sony or the serial number, only Sony could use it.

  Hello

  Here is another solution, you can try to see if you can get Windows 7 to install correctly.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

  Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  Jin

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1N2 PSAE3E and I don't want Vista on my laptop. I downgraded the bios to V5.30 but still cannot install windows xp and there is still no optin for SATA in the bios.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Did you install the SATA drivers first?
  You need this driver to recognize the HARD drive!

  You must download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager. You should find it on the page of the Toshiba driver or the Intel Web site.

  You must perform the installation of an external USB FDD drive using the F6 key during the installation of Win XP.

  Go into the BIOS (F1 at startup), set the "compatible" SATA mode (NO AHCI), then press F10 to save and exit, and you should be all set.

  Good luck.
