• Device Manager does not display c or D drive.

  The Windows Device Manager does not display the drives c or d.  With File Explorer, they show and are easily accessible.  What's wrong?

  Hi Alberini,

  You would actually use the Device Manager to determine which devices are installed on your computer, update driver software for your devices, check to see if hardware is working properly and change the hardware settings. You can also use Device Manager to update a driver that does not work properly or restore a driver with its previous version.

  To view the files or the drive hard internal to your computer, would use you Windows Explorer.

  I hope this helps!

• Installation of construction LabVIEW application disables the Windows Device Manager? Help on how to diagnose the problem?

  Please can anyone shed light on this, or suggest where to look?

  I built an application using the Application Builder of LV2014 (32 bit).

  On a Win7 X 64 PC at work, it installs and runs ok.

  On Win7 X 64 PC at the customer, it installs ok, but then after Windows restarts on demand 'device manager' no longer works and there are some unchangeable registry entries associated with nipalu. The client runs Symantec security software. A client COMPUTER technician is suggesting that LabVIEW is interacting with device drivers and this is the origin of the problem, but we do not know how to go further. It is not really acceptable to deploy computers where the Windows Device Manager no longer works. Surprisingly, the application itself works always - it's just Windows which messed up.

  Thank you

  Thanks for the suggestions. The company IT guy has not been able to talk to a person in NI UK support (no one was available), but he managed to keep it down to a problem with Dell Data Protection encryption Enterprise Edition. Delete first, then install the LabVIEW application, then reinsert DDPE gave a system where everything worked.

  We have built apps that used progressively more labview drivers (vision, labview base; digital i/o)

  Hi Syed,

  Thanks for the reply with the status of the issue.

  I suggest you try to install the drivers for Windows 7 in compatibility mode and check if it works for you. I saw this troubleshooting procedure described working for other members of the community.

  Step 1: Download the driver for the Webcam from this link of Lenovo.

  http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=DS015018

  Step 2: Installing the driver in compatibility mode.

  Make the programs more compatible with this version of Windows:

• Device Manager does not not in Vista Home Premium 64

  Well, I tried to help others in the hardware section so maybe someone here can offer some advice for me.

  I'm running Vista 64 Home Premium on a dv9700.  For more than a year the Device Manager did not work.  Everytime I try to open an error window appears which says "mmc.exe - bad Image".  I also have a similar error window when I try to open MS Paint and several other utilities like the option "Manage" when I right click on my computer.  In the fault window is a big red X and it says: "C:\Windows\System32\odbcint.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.  Try to install the program by using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or support software provider. "In the case of MS Paint, he says"mspaint.exe - bad Image"at the top of the window of the fault, although he then gives the same extended error description as above.  I think that the root cause of all this might be a bad odbcint.dll file, regardless of who is.

  The problem has existed for some time, but I would like to be able to reuse my device manager to check the dates on the drivers and things for updates.  I know I could probably use the system recovery option, but I prefer not to return to the factory default state and having to reinstall all programs, I've added since I bought this computer almost 3 years ago.  Windows used to have a repair option that would repair the system files without deleting the installed programs.  I can't find that on Vista.

  I have already run the SFC/scannow utility from the command prompt at the level of the system administrator.  It passes through the system for a long time and then says it finds corrupted files, but could not solve some of them and go to CBS. LOG file for more details.  When I try to open this log file, it says: 'access denied', even if I have the system administrator access level.

  Someone at - it give me advice without having to restore everything to default "as shipped"?

  Thanks for the link DLL Vista d/l.  I didn't know who was available.  I downloaded odbcint.dll which the fault indicates that this file is either damaged or missing and replaced him in the windows/system32 directory.  Also, I did the same with the file mmcndmgr.dll you mentioned.  I get always the fault of odbcint.dll every time that I try to use the devices, MS-Paint, manage and probably several other things that I have not tried.

  It seems that the only option is to restore the system to default if I want to get this working again.  So during my research, I learned that the downgrade to an older version of Windows is free.  I wanted to sort of go back to Windows XP from Vista 64 that accompanies this laptop since I got it.  I have a Windows XP Pro installation disc that I bought for my desktop PC and all I would need is a free Microsoft activation key which told me they would provide decommissioning.

  However, the support section driver and software for Windows XP here on the site Web of HP has rather limited resources compared to the options for my dv9700 Vista CTO.  On the one hand, there is no graphics driver listed.  I know I probably d/l anything directly form the nVidia site, but this is not the only driver XP or absent utility of the product support for my computer page.  I guess I'll probably use just the recovery Vista DVD that I made when I got my laptop, if I decide I want to do this.

  A F11 recovery that accesses the Recovery Manager in the laptop's recovery partition would be a good plan. When a Windows operating system beghins to exhibit behaviors such as yours is so it's just a matter of time before is no longer, it will start up in Windows.

  I recommend that you create a CD to recover fees just to have the value.

  It is actually faster and more reliable to perform the recovery of the Recovery Manager in the recovery partition from the wear of your DVD drive and recovery CD set since the purchase of your laptop.

• USB-6008 appears in Device Manager but not in MAX or Labview

  I use Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit and you want to use a USB-6008 in LabVIEW 8.5.1. The device appears under data acquisition devices in the Windows Device Manager. The flashing on the device, but the device does not appear in the Explorer of Measurement & Automation 8.7.1. am I missing something?

  He doubts.

  First, check the easy things... to refresh the list of devices to MAX and see if it comes to that.  I'm guessing you've already tried this, but it never hurts to check.

  My bet is that it's a database corrupted Max.  This happens from time to time.  Usually when I see it, the 'Dev1' always appears in LabVIEW if you plop down constant DAQ hardware or control.

  There are tools and processes to erase and start over with a new database, but in my experience, the best way to resolve it is simply update or reinstall MAX.

• WALKMAN NWZ-S545 gives error cannot start (error 10) device in the Device Manager (and not driver for this device found)

  Under Xp (sp3), Device Manager gives me an error for a Walkman NWZ-S545.  XP sees it as a MTP device, but it does not start.  The Device Manager will give me 2 error messages: device will not start (code 10) not and no driver not found for this device.  The walkman works very well with my other machines on the LAN XP but naturally one that I run my media (a all my MP3 etc.) is the one that has the error.  All of my PC are almost identical (with the exception of the server, duh).  I changed USB ports, uninstalled/reinstalled drivers, called SONY to dozens of times, nothing works.  Is a service not started that must be, a driver damaged, what?  Thanks for your help in advance.

• HP m8120n no Ethernet in the Device Manager and not detected

  Hey all:

  I have a desktop HP Pavilion Media Center m8120n (product sheet here) and I recently did an installion of installation clean factory, Windows 7 Pro 64 bit with a DVD retail of Windows. I managed to get the drivers for almost everything, but there are some persistent problems.

  The most serious of them is Ethernet. I can't find drivers ethernet for this machine, even after the update of Windows running several times, no hardware drivers have been found. The ethernet controller/port is not still appear in Device Manager at all!

  I tried to use the driver for this calculation pager on the HP support site, but there is no mention of all the Ethernet/LAN drivers at all.

  I read that sometimes it is important to update the chipset first driver in order to get the job of ethernet. Since HP provides no chipset driver, I decided to try updating the chipset 8120n with theutility to update Intel drivers Intel's Support page.  I have updated to version 9.4.0.1017, once the Web page has scanned my system. However, even after the update the chipset and Windows restarts, I have still no Ethernet at all.

  Depending on the product specifications page, under the section network, the computer uses a controller Ethernet Intel 82566DC. However, after trying to install the driver for the Intel 82566DC since the Intel, the installer website told me that no network controller Intel were present on the system.

  What is really worrying, is that not only does the Device Manager does not even see an Ethernet controller, but the Intel drivers update utility didn't recognize it under the section "Wired" after that the latter had analyzed my computer. Ethernet controller also does not appear under system information.

  I'm starting to wonder if it is a hardware issue and not a driver problem at all! The Ethernet port may be damaged or does not work for Windows do not install the drivers, or even recognize it.

  Does anyone have advice or steps I could take to rule the hardware problem and find a driver that works for my installation of Windows 7 on this computer?

  "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent." -Issac Asimov, from its roman Foundation.

  Good new! It worked! It was really the BIOS that was causing the problem.

  On the Advanced Settings tab, there is an entry called Onboard LAN off, just like the desktop I have to work!

  After booting, Windows installed the drivers for it right away, and now I get to enjoy this sweet Gigabit speed on my network!

  I'm so happy that it was not a hardware problem, and that it was a simple change to the configuration of the BIOS.

  Thanks for all your help!

  I'm as resolved marker.

• Gamepad Xbox 360 as seen in "Device Manager", but not recognized as "Game controller" and will not be installed all the drivers

  My problem is very similar to the one raised here:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_other-gaming/Xbox-360-controller-seen-in-Device-Manager-but-not/fcf52151-604e-4BF3-BF55-2fa4930bc415
  However, the OP in this question unfortunately never had answer to his question.
  When I plug my Xbox 360 controller on my laptop, my computer recognizes it as a device, but does not recognize it as a game controller. Instead, my device is listed under a category called "Other devices", and the drivers are not installed (he gets the little warning sign yellow after the icon).
  I tried to install the correct 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' (http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/d/xbox-360-controller-for-windows (Windows 7 64-bit)) and direct the machine to install its drivers from there, but nothing helps.
  I've tried right-clicking on the device, by clicking 'Uninstall', out in him plugging, uninstalling and reinstalling Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories, restarted my computer and each unique combination of these things.
  I tried to talk to an Ambassador of Microsoft, who told me to update the driver and manually make a 'human interaction device', but unfortunately it did not work.
  I called Support of Windows games, who gave me information from these links:
  support.Microsoft.com/kb/908888
  support.Microsoft.com/kb/906347
  Outside of download the drivers manually in the form of 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' (which I already have), I wasn't able to try all of the hotfixes listed in the guides, because my camera is not listed as a joypad or human interface device. It is simply listed as "Xbox 360 Joypad" and it is listed under the heading "other devices."
  It seems that there is just something wrong with my USB and it's just is not installing drivers properly, but this isn't the case. I plugged many other devices, including an iPod, a mouse and an external HARD drive, which all had their drivers properly installed and works great.
  I also know that it is not a problem with the xbox controller, that I plugged into another laptop (also Windows 7 64-bit), as well as pilots very well on the other laptop.
  I'm really puzzled by this situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated, but please do not repeat the information or links I listed here, or who was in the last question which I quoted above. Thank you for your help.

  UPDATE: I finally got to work. Everything is beautifully detailed in this video from Youtube:

  Here's what you do:
  1. plug your device and go to Device Manager
  2 right click on everything that your computer recognizes your device as (for me, it was listed under 'Other devices' and had a yellow warning sign on this subject) and click on "Uninstall".
  3. disconnect your device
  4. If you have not already done so, download and install the appropriate for your device 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' program
  5. plug your device back on and go back to Device Manager
  6 right-click on everything that your computer recognizes your device as (for me, it was listed under 'Other devices' and had a yellow warning sign on this subject), but this time click on "update driver software".
  7. click on "browse computer driver software.
  8. click on "Let Me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer.
  9. Select "Microsoft Common Controller" and then select your device. Have it install this driver. From there on, it should work on.
