Device Manager: nothing is pulling upwards

original title: Device Manager

Recently, I ran a windows update and leave my computer turned off.  When you turn it on, the were (are) of the internet and the printer does not.  I went into Device Manager via Control Panel to see if I could turn them on and there is nothing pulling up in the Device Manager.  All documents and are accessible, but I can't even start a new internet connection and cannot print.   I am currently using another computer (more modern) in another room.  I even tried the SafeMode (f8 in the middle) from the model and go to Device Manager and nothing was there.  I just tried to go through the f8 option and beginning to a previous state that worked and I have the same result...  Everything is saved on that on a 350g portable hard drive.  It would just be easier to wipe the hard drive and start over? If so how would I do this reformatting?  Thanks for any advice.

    HI, I lost my cd/dvd drive. It was there before, and when I had a successful previous problem to solve this but not this time. I did the upper and lower bit of regedit but without success. When I picked up this last time I learned to do something with the power reset but can't remember how now.

  • [SOLVED] "High Definition Audio Controller" could not be started. "No audio devices installed." The Device Manager has no controller "Sound and video game. Information system has nothing under "audio devices".

    Hello

    I've had my laptop for 2 or 3 years, and the sound was always very well. Yesterday morning my computer came suddenly with the sound with a red X icon. She was not dumb, and yet no sound came. The sound options show that no audio or recording devices are installed (for disabled AND disconnected devices). There is no 'of sound devices or video game"in Device Manager. Information system shows no information (empty) under its device. However, in Device Manager, under system devices, "High Definition Audio Controller" has a yellow caution icon and cannot start.
    I have not installed a new OS or anything recently.
    I have a Dell Inspiron 1545
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Service Pack 1 (6.1.7601 Build 7601)
    Pentium Dual-Core CPU
    64-bit operating system
    I tried:
    • Relocation and reactivation of "High Definition Audio Controller". I rebooted. No change.
    • Go to the Dell website, download audio drivers for my label service and installation. We decompress in the drivers folder and nothing happens. One will be unzip, try to take me by another plant for IDT Audio and then say 'the hardware found is not supported by this IDT' and is abandoned. I rebooted. No change.
    • Install drivers in safe mode. I rebooted. No change.
    • In administrative tools > Services, I found "Windows Audio". He had started and was on "auto". Six of its dependencies (3 parents, 3 children) had started and were to "automatic".
    • I looked at the system restore. There was a "critical update" this morning here. I restored to a point before update and restarted. No change.
    • Looked in the BIOS for an option on the sound, but could not find one. Restore the BIOS default and rebooted. No change.
    • Ran Microsoft Fix It I rebooted. No change.
    • By clicking on the audio task bar icon runs the diagnostic window thing. It detects a problem with the description: "material changes may not have been detected.
    • Put on the headphones. Nothing changes.
    I'll probably have to do a fresh install, am I not?
    I would be very grateful if you could help, thanks.
    Jerome

    Right, I fixed it myself.

    So I uninstalled "High Definition Audio Controller".
    But this time, instead of just turning it back on and let it install it himself, I clicked on "Analysis of the hardware changes" (under the Action). He finds that a new device called PCI something under other devices.

    Then I open up Windows Update and click on search for new updates (it also analyzes the drivers) and I think it just automatically reinstall "controller Audio high definition" and then there was no problem of yellow warning sign thing.

    If it does not, simply play in Device Manager with looking for changes on the hardware and the update of bollocks.

    If you're still stuck, try "Add inherited harware" (this will install an OLD device), click Advanced, click on "sound devices" and video games, wait a while, find a suitable device and continue the process...

    Hello

    I just reinstalled windows 7 64 bit on my HP G6-1184SA.

    I managed to get all the other drivers to work from the Drivers HP section on the Web site.

    However I have a problem with drivers Bluetooth.

    • It does not appear in Device Manager.
    • It is obviously not working and I don't even know how I get it to the settings to find/installation/use.
    • I tried all the drivers Bluetooth 4 under my driver on HP product page. (2 of the drivers made me have BSOD and I got in safe mode to remove).

    So basically, I want to get the Bluetooth on my laptop at work - there is no key on the keyboard or button to activate it - but I know there are as I've used it before you reinstall the operating system.

    Please notify.

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    The page on the link below product specification indicates that your laptop does not come with built-in bluetooth.

    If so, this feature would be are indicated as well as the specification of 802.11 wireless connectivity b/g/n.

    If you still believe without a shadow of a doubt that your laptop came with bluetooth, little matter what the State of the record, then the only suggestion I can offer for you to install the HP software Connection Manager and see if you can turn on the bluetooth car radio using this software.

  • Removed usb drivers Device Manager

    Hello

    I had a problem with the USB and Firewire connections on my HP XW8400 PC.  The system works under windows xp pro.  The problem I had was that some devices/readers etc were not noticed when I plugged the different Slots USB or firewire and others have been.  I have a dongle usb constantly on my system to run a publishing package that I use on a daily basis... I also have an attached Firewire/USB PCI card.  I use the rear firewire and slots of the editing software and hard drives USB and USB slots front is where I keep my dongle and I use the usb port and firewire for other devices such as readers, usk sticks, cameras etc etc.  As I say, things work well, other custom.  For those who don't to correctly connect the peripheral material Add Wizard would come upward, I press on to connect to the web to search for and then it they'd material device wzard found no drivers/solution/whatever.  Being that it is my main computer to work I didn't want to risk anything and so have put up with him for a long time.  However, these days, I need to get a camera connected to the said work stations and so made test after trying to install the software to factory for the camera via camera software CD and realizing that he did not always work.  I used Malware Bytes and it came with nothing and then AGV antivirus and it came wirth nothing.  Ok... So I thought that it MUST be something to do with the USB (and Firewire) themselves.

    I searched on google and it brought me to this microsoft support page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310575 I read through it and he said how to uninstall and re-install the usb via Device Manager drivers.  I went through the instructions and I have clicked on each of the usb devices in Device Manager and uninstalled.  Then I restarted my computer and when it said that it had detected new hardware everytime I clicked on the Hardware Wizard it now impossible to connect to the internet because one of the devices was my router to wide band.  GREAT!

    So, I spent half a day to find the original Windows CD and I reflected on the drive, but couldn't find anything to do with the USB drivers.

    I tried the last known good configuration and that was obviously after deleting files of drivers said Ihad closed and restarted a couple of times since then.

    I checked the system restore and that has been cut!

    If someone could please tell me how to install the said USB controller to ensure that I get the USB drivers installed?

    I'm guessing I now need to go through the window / each device and find the software CD and add the drivers, but I don't even know if I have half of the Conference on disarmament, or they just instantly connect via XP.  I certainly can't find anything for my router, which means I can't even on the web.

    And why has my material wizerd for usb and firewire devices summer miss me for so long?

    All advice appreciated.

    PS... Microsoft, don't you think not that 1 - it would be wise to let people know on the above mentioned page remove the usb drivers may well turn off your Internet so that the wizard doesn't work and you can visit his profile when you connect.  If she had said that I would never be deleted.  2. due to some software I use (Avid Media Composer) on the specially designed workstation, there are various conflicts that occur when the upgrade to Service Pack 3, so you stop the real users of microsoft products to have access to your DIFFICULTY IT thingymajig if they decide to stay on service pack 2.  Why make life so hard Micfrosoft?  I'm very careful with my systems.  I should have a choice of not having to be upgraded if it means he can endanger other packages, but I'll always freedom of basic set of tools and services that you offer.  I'm fed up.   The following, that I get computer is a MAC!

    You're right, that Windows XP has drivers for a large number of features built into the operating system.  Peripheral USB in particular are supposed to be 'plug and play' - you simply connect the device to the computer, it goes "Bong", and the device is recognized and installed.

    A "Repair Installation" window is supposed to leave all your applications and your data intact - but you will almost always see advice to backup everything that you care about the 'just in case '.

    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

    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

  • DVD drive has disappeared from my computer and Device Manager lists

    The machine is an Acer laptop with a single disc DVD - RW Win Vista Home Premium 32 running with all the latest updates installed.

    I have not installed anything new (software or hardware), I know.

    The other day the player just stopped working and is no longer registered to each workstation or in the Device Manager list.

    While they inspected the system event logs there is a chain of...

    Event 7026 - the next (s) starting or starting system could not load:

    CDROM

    and...

    Event 11 atapi - driver detected an error in the controller on \Device\Ide\IdePort2.

    Event 9 atapi - the device, \Device\Ide\IdePort0, did not within the time limit.

    Event 11 atapi - driver has detected an error on \Device\Ide\IdePort0 controller.

    I know that the drive itself works well because when I initially turn on the laptop I can hear the drive spin upward and I'm able to eject the drawer, so there the power etc... but once in Windows the drive does not work or even appear anywhere.

    So far, I have tried.

    1. detection of new hardware in Device Manager

    2 - installing all IDE channels and let the system reinstall after re-booting

    3 running the Microsoft Fixit tool, it seems to point out that there is a problem and said fixed it, but nothing is actually fixed by that

    I noticed a few other posts which look similar to mine, but had trouble understanding if they truly are or not.  So apologies if this is a repeat of something already posted.

    OK tried the fixit tool still once, was not aware there were different tools for different issues.  I have the wrong tool launches the first time round.

    Anyway, the drive is still on holiday somewhere, fixit tool reports that it may not detect the drive at all, so that seems to indicate that he does not drive connected.

    Is it possible that the IDE cable has come off the promenade inside the laptop?  I hope that not because I just spent the last couple of hours trying to figure how to get to where the Player connects, but seems almost impossible... can get to all the rest, keyboard and screen disconnected, RAM, disk HARD etc, but the DVD player, not a hope!

    Looks like I'll take it to a service somewhere I guess.

  • Satellite A500 - 17 X - Webcam does not appear in Device Manager

    Hello

    I'm looking for more assistance with a recently purchased A500 - 17 X running on Windows 7 64 bit. The Webcam worked when buying, but has suddenly stopped working. Web camera software is up-to-date with the latest download from the Toshiba site, but returns the message at the launch:

    "Web Camera initialization failed" Please, you check the camera device & restart the application or computer.

    I checked the Device Manager under Imaging for webcam devices & is not listed (it's my own laptop; I also have a Toshiba laptop provided by employer & when the webcam is listed on that one, so I presume that it must appear in the same place!

    Does anyone have any suggestions? Would it be a bad connection to the webcam itself, i.e. a warranty issue, or is there a software solution to check if the webcam is actually present? I scan for new hardware & nothing new is detected.

    Thanks in anticipation!

    Jon

    In my opinion, you should try to reinstall the driver for the webcam. Remove preinstalled software, restart your computer and reinstall the latest version available.

    Best test you can do is to reinstall the recovery image. with factory cam settings should work fine again.
