  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

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

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Windows Explorer crashes when you go to Flash Drive.

  Original title: Explorer windows compared to SD card

  lately, whenever I try to use a flash drive or plug in an SD card, windows Explorer stops responding.  I can't view the contents of the card player, and I have to restart windows Explorer.  I use Vista, and my antivirus (Kaspersky) is up-to-date and scanned for viruses.  I am at a loss.  as strange as it may seem, I believe that the issue is in some way associated with the USB ports (because I can insert an SD card into the SD slot and it works very well), my printer works great.

  Hey e_dante1,

  (1) it might be possible that Kaspersky scans the disk for the virus. Disable the same and see how it goes.

  (2) test in safe mode with network behavior. This disables all your third-party services and drivers to load and use Basic Windows drivers required to run it.

  Reference:

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Startup options (including safe mode)

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  (3) if access to a flash drive or check his mail behaves normally in safe mode with networking, the problem boils down to conflict with other third-party applications installed. In this case, perform the clean boot to discover the guilty app. See: How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  (4) get the update below which has fixes for the reliability issues in the USB components. Cumulative update rollup for USB in Windows Vista Basic components

  Notes:

  o ensure that you switch your computer to normal startup mode after completing the troubleshooting steps. Steps are available in the above article.

   

  o run the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; don't forget to activate the security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after you have identified the problem.

• Is there a difference through the add printer from the Menu then simply open the print server in the Explorer, and then right-click on the printer you want, and then hit?

  Add a network printer (add printer vs right-click-> Connect)

  Hey just have a quick question that I can't find anywhere.

  To add network printers is there a difference through the add printer from the Menu then opening just the print server in the Explorer, and then right-click on the printer you want and pressing on connect?

  Hello Doughty08,

  No, there is no difference. Both methods will install the same printer available driver and the two will work the printer even.

  Make sure that the mapped drive is configured to share and works on part.

  Maybe this can help.

  Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic.
