HP Pavilion dv6707us webcam corrupted by Vista updates.

My HP Pavilion dv6707us says «unrecognized webcam»  I tried the driver updates - but because the webcam is not recognized - it can not download updates.  I read online that this was due to the automatic updates of Windows Vista (Home Premium).  How can I fix?

Hello Sue_991,

I suggest that you download the software from the HP Web site and install. It will automatically load the drivers. Here is a link you can follow to download and install the software:

  • Vista update and we now have a black wallpaper - Satellite P300

    Windows Vista update last night on our P300 laptop and is now rather weird.

    We get only a black background solid and a lot of the icons that we had are gone, and it will not change the wallpaper. Most of the programs are not loading at startup as usual (only anti virus) and most of the things are missing from the start menu... it happened to anyone before? It sounds almost to what they do when you have a pirate copy of Vista (and of course this one IS legitimate as it came with the lappy)...

    Any suggestings?

    I did not physically see the laptop and won't til tomorrow myself... Although my companion knowing its probably just something simple but thought check here around before that snack.

    Thanks :)

    Solved the problem...

    A windows update some how corrupted the registry.

    I hit log off in windows and then tried clicking on the user name to connect (we just auto journal in value) and when trying to load the profile, we had a service user profile Service has no logon.

    A system restore fixed the issue... :)

  • problem with the vista updates, dates back to December 2008

    In December 2008, I had remote access, now have broadband services. have family vista premium with service pack 1, the problem started when I tried to install the December 2008 windows updates. checked all updates essential etc. then let problem execution, not finished, then computer rebooted as it always does, is gone on the screen, then rebooted, saw the windows bar downstairs and then (as would normally go to LOG IN) it went to black screen and then off, the thing windows tried to start and check the disc and other programs of repair but kept saying could not start. Looked at this time comes to say has encountered an unknown error and could not fix, end was to use the F keys as an administrator login and do a system restore to 5 December and then worked well, have run the check disk and defrag and virus scans etc... now, my pc works fine, but I have not installed updates since December 2008, as know that it will happen if I do. However, I want to keep my vista up-to-date. I think that may be corruptions in the updates in a temporary folder somewhere, but don't know where it is. is - it there anyway to remove the files that can be corrupted or is there another solution, looked everywhere for answers in the forums and helpdesk there were several other people in the same question. My computer work fine, but I wonder if I will ever be able to install an update again. I have to be clear that I can run windows update without issue, it lists later and everything but when it's this thing to reboot it goes back to square one as shown above. Something in the updates is messing up my system and even widows classes as unknown error.

  • Problem installation Vista updated and now the Vista operating system unbootable - help

    Here it is the description of what has past.  Ive been through everything I can do and am now stuck with a code of 0 X 4001100200001005.

    I worked with Microsoft Vista forum group of answers, but I'm not back upward and running if Im going back to HP for assistance.  I hope that we can achieve together.  This all started when started Vista updates failing.  I got the 1 3 install stuck on the 2nd about three weeks ago.

    Here is a list of what I've done so far
    I have an old HP DV9410us for a year which will not restart after installing updates.  It comes to configuring updates step 1 from 3 to about 98% and then stops.

    It then says unable to start windows and start the repair program windows for about 5-10 minutes.  He said that you want to use the system restore.  I tell Yah Why Not.  Then, it will stop and start the cycle.

    The error in the Startup Repair States the following

    After a bunch of tests successful

    Root cause found:

    c:\ntoskrnl.exe is corrupted.

    Repari Action: Repair of files
    Result: failed.  Error code = 0xa
    Duration 6521ms

    Action repair system restore
    Result: Completed successfully

    He then returns to the cycle all over again.

    I turned the clock to October with F10 at startup but that did nothing.

    I checked the hard drive for the short and complete and checked everything.

    I dug my recovery disks I did ago about 10 months after I bought and used to return to the top of my hardrive.  I was all ready for a MAC at this point.

    I went back to the HP Recovery program and tried to restore an earlier version of a well-known operating system.  The Manager of recovery disk wont work so I used the Recovery Manager disk.  There is no old configs to this true its in step 2.

    I'm now trying to perform a factory image recovery.
    Reload the operating system.  It started and got to 13% after 20 minutes and gave me the following error code.

    During this process, I have an error that had the code 0 x 4001100200001005.

    It is the reformatting of repeat of the Windows Partition.

    Is this a Vista update problem?  Have you seen this before?

    I'm doing a factory restore and will let you know if this operation fails.  I just wanted to get this thread started.

    I really appreciate this forum and any help you could give me.

    If you had an error in "configuration update 1 3-3 3 ' which would be a problem with windows update.

    to fix this, you'll need a factory image recovery if you can not access other modes for windows. But youy mentioned that you had a 0xx000x... (similar to code) error... try checking the hard drive and memory modules health... threr could be a problem with these devices, you can access it through the bios settings (turning on laptop, the moment you see hp invent screen, press f10) go to the diagnostics section, run the memory test and that hard drive test

    very probably with the error you have, you might have a hard drive problem.

    most of my clients (I am a specialist of the laptop of beak) with that problem and stuck on a boot loop or may not switch from windows, 95% of them had a hard drive failure.

  • Satellite P100-442 - sound after Vista update problem

    Vista Home Premium operating system.

    Since "Vista Update" installed a pilot of its new "Conexant high definition SmartAudio HD2", the sound does not work.
    It does that after I do a "ch for devices modified" via "Device Manager".
    But I do whenever I have start the laptop.
    Should I first remove this driver (and how?) and to install the driver on the Toshiba site?

    Try to restore to an earlier time using System Restore option.

    If everything works again DO NOT install updates for ALL pilot rating. Just install update marked as important. All others (optional) update SHOULD NOT be installed at all.

    Hi, I had / have problems with Vista updates:

    I can not install more than one at once otherwise that it crashes a BSOD. It's annoying, but I can live with that...

    The latest issue (I wonder about that) which is the last batch of updates (I'm sure it's one of these two: KB2479628 & KB2393802) is making my PC run unstable and stop my antivirus to work.

    When either are installed, my pc freezes at startup and can or cannot enter Vista (safe mode still works). When he gets into Vista, MSE shows a symbol of error indicating that it is not functional / turned on. When I try to turn it on, I get a gel complete system requiring a hard reboot.

    OK, I realized I remember little about it... so I'll reinstall tomorrow and I hope to give more details later

  • After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer

    After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).

    [You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) viaControl Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of NIS 2011 (using your product ID, if need be) & reboot. CF. http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    NOTE: Do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate (Norton) until you get a prompt "no update more".
