• Satellite A300 PSAG4A: Webcam not detected in Device Manager

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAG4A 02L00M with Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
  The webcam is not working and it is not detected in Device Manager.
  When I install the Chicony camera drivers, I get the "Webcam driver open fail. Error message.

  The fact that I can't see the Webcam in Device Manager tells me that there may be a hardware failure.
  However, I hope that this is a setting that I can fix myself.

  I had restored the laptop to factory also and I've updated the bios.
  I tried to uninstall all the USB controllers and reboot the PC.

  Is there something I can do?
  It's maybe a software problem?
  There may be a setting?

  Best way to test the operation of the equipment is to check with the factory settings installation operating system with the Toshiba recovery image. As I see that you have done this already.

  So if cam still doesn't work properly, I fear that there is a problem with the hardware.
  It cannot be matter of software because the recovery image contains the driver for the cam.

• HP Probook 430 G2: HP Probook 430 G2 - HW Bluetooth not detected on Device Manager

  Hello team HP,

  I just bought HP Probook 430 G2 and using the Windows 7 Entriprise 64-bit SP1 operating system.

  Why bluetooth HW is not detected in Device Manager, I know that this laptop has built-in bluetooth.

  

  Please kindly help.

  Thank you

  You are the very welcome.

  You are right.  This wireless card has built in bluetooth.

  See if this driver installation get the bluetooth to work.

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=ob_149791_1

  If this is not the case, check the BIOS to see if there is a setting to turn bluetooth on or off.

  If this isn't the case, install it and see if it detects the bluetooth radio and turn it on using the software.

  Once you turn on the BT, you can either go to the use of the software or uninstall.

  http://h20565.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=ob_154636_1

  If none of the works above, I suggest that you contact HP technical support and submit a case under the guarantee pension, because I think that there is something wrong with the wireless card.

• T400 no wireless device not detected in Device Manager.

  Hello

  I have a problem. I bought a new T400. As for specification - it has WLAN (EAN: nm322us).

  Dealer information:

  Wireless network Yes

  Standards wireless a/g/n

  Type of wireless card Intel WiFi Link 5300AGN

  But no wireless network card detected (in Device Manager), when the computer starts.  No in the bios for the WLAN mac address. So, where is a problem? A dealer cheated me and there is no WLAN in this computer? Or are there problems with the detection of devices of MS Windows Vista Business? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

  Solved. The problem was that activate WLAN in BIOS was 2 places -strange. Update BIOS maybe after. Before the upgrade - as usual-, I looked in the network section (to activate WLAN). There was no option, besides, to activate the wired network. I don't know if it was in the other section (System i/o ports) before the BIOS update, but in my opinion - in any case, it's strange to Wired and wireless in separate sections network devices. Thank you very much for the help.

• Graphics cards GTX - 770M not detected in Device Manager

  Salvation;

  My AW-18 does not correctly detect my GTX - 770 M (x 2) cards and display them in the Device Manager. What I see is that in the other devices section, there are two unknown devices listed, one of which I already know (not related). Any GTX cards appear in graphics cards.

  Also, when I try to install GeForce experience, I get an error saying that I don't have cards chart for this program. It allows to launch fine until today (December 15, 2014).

  This PC has a hard drive erasure and system reinstall in its history. It is possible that this point has been like that for this event.

  The Hardware Id info on the elements of the mystery are as follows:

  ACPI\VEN_SMO & DEV_8810
  ACPI\SMO8810
  * SMO8810

  So I guess I have two questions;

  (1) can you tell me what is this mystery device?

  (2) why can I not see my graphics card in Device Manager, despite all the usual activities like the search of new hardware, drivers, etc..

  Thank you

  Graham

  Also note that I had already run the troubleshooter from Dell and it detected no problems.

  I found a solution myself.

  I looked at the BIOS settings by the F2 key at startup, and the only thing I could see I could try was to restore the default settings, so I did. My PC booted then up normally but for low resolution. Device Manager now showed two graphics cards, so I ran the installer of the latest GeForce drivers and the PC works now perfectly once more.

• I bought adobe CS 3 in 2008... I downloaded the software, as the DVD no longer works and all I get are pdf files and not the software itself... ive download 3 times reused up to 3 gigs on my mifi and im in box departure

How can I reinstall the CD3 dvd no longer works

  Usually with the downloads you get a compressed executable file.  Just keep them all together and run the executable.  IT will extract and install the zipped file.

  CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html

  You can also download the demo version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

  Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important Instructions in the section on the pages of this site download and have cookies turned on in your browser, otherwise the download will not work correctly.

• CD/DVD-ROM problems, drive not detected AND the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager

  I'm having serious problems here. My CD/DVD-ROM drive is not detected and will not answer. I can ONLY open the drawer at the beginning of my computer laptop startup. The drive does not appear in my computer and the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager. Therefore, the "uninstall/reinstall" is impossible if the computer behaves as it has never been this drive now or never. Previously, I was able to use it as there was no problem, but someday, it's simply not there.

  I connected the Xbox 360 controller to my pc via the cable, it is detected in Device Manager as 'wireless controller xbox 360 Via play & charge kit.
  In respect of game controller does not appear even when you click advance to selected the device it does not always show upward.

  Unfortunately, this won't work.  The Play and Charge kit connects only up to the actual battery.  Still, the controller connects more wireless.

  You would need a wired Xbox 360 controller or Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming receiver that connects to your wireless controller existing.

• CD/dvd drive is not listed in Device Manager

  my laptop is a hp pavillion entertainment pc dv6605us, running windows vista. the cd/dvd drive is not read / write any CD and it is not listed in Device Manager. I tried to fix this problem by using the microsoft fixit tool, but I'm still having the same problem. I checked the system registry and found no upperfilters and lowerfilters.
  Please, how can I solve this problem?

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as it is often the total process
  which solves the problem.

  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.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

• Tecra M9: WLan not working not - not displayed in Device Manager

  I've updated the Bios with the latest version, I turned on the switch on the front of the laptop wireless. I also tried FN + F8 but still no joy.

  I have reset the default settings of the BIOS without change. The wireless light flashes when the computer begins to start, but after that, it turns off.

  Any ideas greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  You said that the WLan card is not listed in Device Manager?
  Did you check that exactly?

  Usually the WLan card must appear in Manager devices-> network adapters.
  You don't see any yellow exclamation?

  But to be honest, this story sounds really amazing.
  Have you used the good BIOS? On the Toshiba European driver page are 2 different Tecra M9 series listed and these two different series supports different versions of the BIOS!
  And the wrong version of BIOS that may affect the functionality of laptops!

  I have your comments would be appreciated
