  • I get a message saying "the specified service does not exist as an installed service."

    Hi, im having problems with windows vista where whenever I try to update my system (security, java, adobe) or I right click on the sound icon in the toolbar of my screen (and open) section, I get the message saying that the specified service does not exist as an installed service. SO, I searched online and which did not help. Oh and by the way, when I get the options after I have right click on the sound icon, I can't click on the mixer. IM using a dell inspiron 531 and it works on windows vista and is very slow, almost never answers (only restores the games that I have on it) and has an athlon processor. What should I do? Thank you, Shawn White. P.S. that's in the good topic?

    The service that the error message refers is the HP network devices support service. Try this...

    Open the contents of the installation CD, and then open the file "setup." Now you will find either a folder named 'netdevicemanager' or simply 'network '. Open if it is present. Now there should be a file with the same name as the file, but with extension .msi. Right-click on this file and click on uninstall. If you get a message stating that the action applies only to products that have been installed, and then click OK. Restart the computer IF necessary. Now, right-click on the file and click on install. Installation do not normally present a window of 'success' You will just see a bar of progress for a few seconds and disappear. Once this happens, restart the PC and check if the HP Network Device Support or similar service appeared in the list of services. If Yes, then reinstall the software, and it should install correctly.

  • My windows vista ulitmate says that this is not activated and gives me error # 0 x 80070424 "specified service does not exist as an installed service '?

    I got this upgrade for the last two or three years.  Why is this happening? How can I solve this?

    As to why this is happening - you certainly used a (WiseFixer or CSA?) registry cleaner.

    I suggest you use any possibility of CANCELLATION to return to a State where the system works, then uninstall it and vow never to reuse such a thing. They are ALL dangerous.

    If the Cancel option is not available, try a system restore - if vacuuming has not broken also SR service.
