• Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH40F SCSI CdRom Device) because the driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

  Original title: the answer useful?

  Help, please! Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH40F SCSI CdRom Device) because the driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

  Hello

  Code 39 means that the driver is corrupted or missing.

  Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
  the question.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Also check with your system manufacturer to see if there are any updated drivers for your DVD. Or even if it
  are you can reinstall the 'old'. Many use Windows default drivers however some special aura
  ones. Also check the website of the manufacturer of the car.

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

  I'm still on WMP 10 for a reason, and I wanted to connect my PC with 360 videos. I downloaded the update, but he told me to go get the Update Rollup 2 or something, so I tried to install it and he told me that I needed to go get the .NET framework 1.1 and .NET framework 1.1 SP1. I went to download them and install them, but he tells me that "the upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded is may be missing or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program".

  I Googled, tried of all kinds, uninstalled SP3 and tried and nothing.

  Please note that pilots must be pre installed in your Microsoft windows 7 OS. If your machine is not with the drivers, that we invite you to contact Microsoft because they are not available for download from Sony.

• After updating Photoshop Photoshop update 2014 CC - CC "cannot save preferences because the file is locked...". "Error

  Last update of the latest Version of Photoshop on brand new Photoshop CC 2014 CC. Everything worked fine before the update! After installing Photoshop CC 2014, when I try to change Photoshop CC preferences, I get the error ' after updating Photoshop CC to update Photoshop CC 2014 - "cannot record Preverences because the file is locked, you don't have the necessary access permissions or another program of dissemination of the file" when I want to close Photoshop for the changes in preferences in force... ". So what to do? What file doesn't have enough permissions? Where can I find the file? And why it has worked before and not now? An idea for a fix? Running on a new Mac Pro with the OS X Maverics 10.9.3 latetest

  I had the same problem on Mac OS. And I could not migrate the settings. Launch as resetting preferences suggest here, has not solved the problem. I had to go to the library main folder Preferences and reset the permissions for the file Photoshop CC 2014 paths Photoshop CC 2014 folder and Settings. I am disappointed that Adobe has shipped an upgrade with such a fundamental flaw. I think I should say something derogatory and disparaging about Adobe, quality control, on the way as a loyal customer, using Photoshop since version 2.5 and a Subscriber CC, expecting better. But I'll leave these comments for others.

  Anyone know how to solve my problem? I can't import my photos from Iphone to computer. Sign says: Photos in the camera cannot be imported because the IPhone is locked with a password or read. My phone is unlocked. I tried everything, every single idea. Without success! Any other idea?

  For example, you specify that the device does not display the lock screen, correct? Do you use Touch IDS? If so, try to put your finger on the device to see if it's what he wants.

• System Restore error: "the changes to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.»

  I had some problems with my computer recently I knew could be solved with the system restore.  Then I went into system restore and went to a restore point that was a few weeks back.  After I clicked on it and pressing the ok button, the following message appeared: "the changes made to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.»  I let it continue and do the restore.  My computer has rebooted and came up with an error in system restore that says restore failed.  It's the same thing with other restore points.  I don't know why I get this error because I not made any changes to this hard drive except for copy of a document word on him.  I thought that the System Restore monitors removable disks.  Anyone know what is happening here and how I can get the restoration of the system to operate without the mistakes to come?

  I have Norton.  Disable the Tamper Protection works.  I also noticed that since the G: drive was a portable hard drive, System Restore wanted to exercise oversight.  He wants to monitor all hard drives.  Turn on external and portable hard disks prevents tracking system restore changes to the readers.  I don't think anyone would have the system restore review external drives anyway.  It is not necessary.

• Download Itunes on my laptop just before, it starts to install, I get a message saying that windows Explorer stops because the prevention of execution of data has stopped installation

  original title: Itunes and DEP

  While downloading Itunes on my laptop right before you start to install, I get a message saying that windows Explorer stops because the prevention of execution of data has stopped installation.  Is there any solution for this?  I'd like to install itunes on my laptop.

  Hi Steve681229,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Answers forum.  Here's what worked for someone else.  Thanks Kevin

  Hi thrivenformore,

  Please use the forum for Support of Vista,

  You could try to add iTunes to the DEP exception list.  However, this behavior is not normal.  Go to the support forum of Apple for iTunes for Windows, search on DEP.  There should be a thread "How can I turn off DEP for iTunes?" or it Prevet planting iTunes? "which provide troubleshooting steps you might want to try before adding it to the list of exceptions."

  How to add the program to the DEP exception list:

  1. Press Start, right click on computer and select Properties.
  2. in the window that appears, click Advanced (on the left panel) system settings.
  3. in the first box that says Performance, click on the settings button.
  4. in the window that opens, click the Data Execution Prevention tab at the top.
  5. There should be a box of exceptions in the middle of this window. Click the Add button and navigate to the C: drive, then Program Files, then the iTunes folder, and then choose the iTunes exe.
  6. Add the exception, and then click OK in the window of the DEP.

  Hope this helps, Kevin

• Cannot send mail with windows mail. Get the pop-up Windows security.

  Cannot send mail with Windows Mail. Get the pop-up Windows security.

  Password and username are all correct. POP and SMTP everything is correct. If I remove all virus blocker, always get Windows security pop up asking for password and username; I type in it and click on the option to remember, but the window appears several times without sending a message. Error message box is empty.

  No problem on the end of e-mail servers. Equipped with Windows Vista.

  I deleted the Windows Mail disabled account, rebooted with the new account and the same problem.

  Can I receive the mail, but Windows Security blocking my attempts to send and don't remember the password and username that I type.

  Help!

  This kind of behavior is very often due to antivirus.  You are using.  If its McAfee or Norton get rid of them completely.   There are others who are also incompatible.  Everything you try, make sure that the analysis of e-mail is disabled.   You can also try to repair the database and see if that helps (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  And see also www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
