• No hard drive not found when installing Windows 7

  I have a HP Envy 4 - Ultrabook 1046tx and the operating system Windows 64-bit 8.1. While downgrading to Windows 7 64 bit I was unable to find the hard drives. In the installation screen it showed me "no hard drive found. Click on load a driver to provide a driver for installing mass storage.'.»

  I downloaded all the versions (from most recent to oldest) technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers and I tried install one by one but they do not work and the hard drives are still not visible. But if I use a Windows 8 install disc and install the driver drives are visible.

  I need my computer to display the default hard drives without the need for a SATA driver. How do I do that? My Intel chipset manufacturer and model is Ivy Bridge HM77.

  
  Can someone help me solve the problem please?
  
  Thanks in advance!

  I tried a lot of things these steps. But this has not worked for me. Might work for others. I'm sticking with Windows 8.1 for awhile and I will continue to find other ways. If I find the solution will immediately post the solution in this thread. Thanks to Paul_Tikkanen for helping me!

  No sound from my Dell Inspiron 1420 and the microphone and built-in laptop camera do not work after installing Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. My laptop has Windows 7 Vista 32 - bit family premium. My laptop is 64-bit capable and after going through the Upgrade Advisor, I installed Windows 7 64-bit. I can hear sounds when I use a headset plugged into the line-in Jack, but not through the speakers built into the laptop. I already tried new drivers from the Dell website, but I could not find.

  Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

  As it is has no drivers 64 bit Windows 7 on Dell Web site, your best chance is to install the 64-bit versions of Vista (if they exist) in compatibility mode, viz:

  Right click on the Vista driver, then select Properties > Compatibility tab. Now choose to run the program in Vista compatibility mode and then apply > OK. Right click on the file and select run as administrator to install it.

  I formatted my hard drive and xp wouldn't charge b/c he didn't see the hard drive. I then installed Windows 7 starter and cannot be upgraded. .

  Probably, you need to boot in the BIOS of the computer and changed on the hard drive in IDE mode, SATA, so it can be recognized by Windows XP.

  Before that you plan to replace Windows 7 with Windows XP. Have you tried to familiarize yourself with the operating system first?

  http://techingiteasy.WordPress.com/2009/08/19/for-the-former-Windows-XP-user-welcome-to-Windows-7/

  If you want to run Windows XP, you can consider to dual boot Windows 7 and Windows XP. You first need to know if your computer is compatible with Windows XP. Much more modern computers are gradually support for Windows XP.

• Tecra S3: SATA hard drive not recognized after XP updates

  Windows has recently completed an automatic update on a Tecra S3 equipped with a 60 GB HARD drive SATA.
  After the reboot required for updaates windows generates a BSOD.

  I've traced the error and found that the system can not find the hard drive.
  Even when I use the XP cd and restore/repair console without a hard drive is located.

  When I check the BIOS hard drive is there.
  I removed the hard drive and used an external case and determined that the hard drive works fine.

  Hello

  Tecra S3 supports RAID.
  In order to install Win XP RAID driver is needed!

  The RAID driver can be found on the European driver Toshiba page.
  It s a v 1.01.0005 for Win XP.

  You can include the RAID driver using nLite. This free tool allows you to include the RAID driver in the Win XP disc.
  Google for nLite for more details.

• Satellite P300-1This - Microphone does not work after installing Windows 7

  Hello world.

  At first, I'm sorry for my bad English, so I will say in no time.

  A few days ago, I removed a few programs, and I installed the new Windows 7 operating system. Everywhere I had to download the new drivers for the camera because they do not work. After you download the drivers of the camera, the camera become operative (YES!), but later worked for me, a built-in microphone was out of use. What may be of it with the cause and this driver to download and why the microphone not working?

  I can't talk with friends on Skype ;( Help me. I hope you know what I'm saying.

  Hello

  Do you really install any drivers after installing Windows 7? Maybe you have forgotten something and so it doesn t work.
  Micro is a part of webcam so be sure that driver webcam is properly installed and driver sound, you need to as well.

  After that, check the sound settings. Make sure that the Microphone is enabled and test it again with amp active microphone.

• Does not fingerprint after installing Windows 7

  I bought 3 items of T500 with installed Windows 7 Home. With this OS footprint scaner worked properly.

  After installing Windows 7 Professinal, fingerprint reader does not work. All instaled divers. There is no error in DeviceManager. But when I run the software of fingerprints, it is said that scanner is not lit.

  Make sure that the installed driver is actually the one that came with the Lenovo Fingerprint Software and not the one that you got from Windows Update. I've seen similar problems several times where Windows 7 is installed and get fingerprints from windows update driver/software and the software Lenovo to fingerprints do not work because some parts of the software, I got from windowsupdate is left on the computer.

  Which version of the driver of the fingerprint reading is installed on your computer?

  You can try uninstalling Lenovo Fingerprint Software and restart. Then, after the reboot if there is still a driver installed for the fingerprint reader in Device Manager, right click and select uninstall and also check the box that says to delete the driver. You may have to restart again. If you had several drivers fingerprint installed you may need to repeat this step twice. So when Device Manager shows the fingerprint with no check reader driver installed if you have any software fingerprint authentec or authentec truesuite installed under "uninstall or change a program". If you find any uninstall and restart. If you can successfully eliminate all the reader of fingerprints in the device should be listed in Control Panel with no driver installed, you should find any substance of fingerprints or biometrics. Then try to install the Lenovo Fingerprint Software.

• HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC: touchpad scroll function not working after installing windows 7 (64)

  After a complete hard drive failure, I installed Win 7 everything works, as far as I know, except scrolling on the touchpad. I went through all the troubleshooting I can find.  The last one I tried was in the Control Panel, mouse and look for the details of the touchpad. It is not listed there.  I can't find a driver to install HP and Driver Downloads. Where can I find a driver for the touchpad with scrolling? The only thing listed under the mouse in the menu of device driver is a PC mouse.

  I'm sorry that the link of the page didn't work.  HP has problems with the website support, and even for me at times, page links do not work.

  As for the installation of Windows 9, how to acquire that is to order the HP recovery media. It is a DVD and CD set that will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP.  You get these by contacting HP Customer Service.
