• Capacity wireless suddenly stopped working after an update of Windows Vista.

  Feature WiFi suddenly stopped working after a windows vista updated.  Wireless switch is engaged, but stays yellow that messeges troubleshooting all say computer does not detect wireless devices.  It's as if someone pulled the unit and the antenna of the portable computer.  I also downloaded the wireless drivers and Setup several times without success.  Wireless device appears in the Device Manager page.  The only thing that is showing and work is the cable which is how I can download the drivers and appear on this forum.  Is it possible that the wireless device is broken?  All applicable lights are lit on the networking modem, no signal is detected on the computer, I have concluded that the wireless on the laptop is just inop.  Either way, I have a Compaq Presario F700 laptop.  All the options out there?  Thank you

  original title: can't find the wireless device

  Hello again, Kathy,

  More specific instruction, I can give to check settings in the BIOS of your system is to search for a list of devices that installed your laptop. There are only two options for each device, activate them and deactivate them.
  Look for something listed as network radio or wireless card and make sure that it is set to enable.
  The option that you network adapter found can also control the wireless adapter, but it can control only the plug adapter (Ethernet) network.
  A simpler solution, if you have not already tried it it is the system restore in Windows as mentioned by Kiran in a previous answer:

  Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated.

  I tried to reset firefox and search for similar problems, unfortunately found nothing.

  It is also weird empty space before the address in the address bar

  other extensions and addons seems to work very well.

  Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to TrueSuite, you can use the page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the setting on the right side of TrueSuite.

  Any difference?

  Note to other readers: the original poster had to leave Firefox and start it again until it is actually entered into force.

• his Pavilion dv7-6b55dx suddenly stopped working

  the sound on my Pavilion dv7-6b55dx has suddenly stopped working. External speakers work not at all and has failed the test tone. The headset works sometimes - for ex: I can play the same youtube video and audio work once and then again not at all.

  HP support system had run the updates from the previous night (I turned off computer later) so I wonder if this could be a problem?

  have audio beats and OS is Windows 7.

  Thanks for any help.

  Click on the link below. Enter your product number as that indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop (can be under the battery). You can also get the product number by pressing Fn + ESC key. After you enter the PN, click Next, then choose the software & Drivers.On the next page use the menu drop down to select your (probably Windows 7 64-bit) operating system. A list will fill with the drivers. Download & save the last Audio driver.

  Go into the Control Panel, programs & features - software uninstall IDT. Reboot the laptop and install using the downloaded file.

• laptop keyboard stopped working after Windows update.

  have a toshiba satellite A505 laptop and the keyboard stops working after Windows Update reboots. We reinstalled Windows 7, which fixed the problem until the updates have come. Now the keyboard is unresponsive. Sounds like a software problem, no material. Also checked the keyboard drivers that are up to date.

  As a first response, go to the control panel, device, keyboard, keyboard Manager and right click, uninstall it and let it rediscover Windows and then reinstall it.

  It suits it much of the time.

• All browsers stop working after the automatic updates

  * Original title: Windows 8 - all browsers stop working after update

  Hi, I have a Dell 14R with Windows 8, standard configuration.  After the automatic updates pushed on 06-04-14, computer laptop start behaving strange - not able to connect to any external website.  Home page only on a browser worked.  Troubleshooting auto did not find any problems. I restored the computer to the last point saved, generated an error "cannot restore', perhaps due to MacAfee, but solved the problem.   Then I disabled the updates for windows, just in case.  Did you anyone has a similar experience lately and was able to locate and solved the problem?

  I've updated for Windows 8.1 over the weekend, it seems to work great so far.

• USB ports stop working after windows 7 updates (April 12, 2011)

  After application of the 12 updates successfully (KB890830, KB2508272, KB2506223, KB250212, KB2508429, KB2507618, KB2509553, KB2503658, KB2506014, KB2491683, KB2511455 and KB2446710), my USB ports stopped working after restart.

  I restored the functionality of USB ports by doing a system restore before installing updates.

  What should I do? Ignore ALL updates future windows 7, which leaves the system vulnerable? Help is appreciated thanks.

  Updates were corrupted somehow the drivers, you need to fix manually.

• The ColdFusion 64-bit windows setup program stops working after recent microsoft update

  ColdFusion 64-bit windows installation stops working after the recent microsoft updates and how I worked around it.

  My question is at the end.

  Deploying coldfusion 9 enterprise 64-bit on a trial version Windows 2003 64 bit what OS with OS data center all updates from MS (at 07/04/2011).

  Measures taken (remember, this is all 64-bit):

  1. the installed the base OS that has been slipstreamed with SP2.

  2 checked w / microsoft and 63 OS updates installed.

  3. launch the exe of the trial CF9.

  4. as soon as the first screen (the one that looks like it's the extraction of files) then finished the second screen (the one that says simply SEE Adobe Coldfusion 9) and the progress bar moves quickly 95% to the right and the installation application closes. No error, no nothing. No log file either.

  5. after a moment of silence disbelief (and a new attempt/reboot, etc.), I started to google. I found nothing. However, I found a post (thanks dspent!) which is useful in what he says how he managed to get a log file of all kinds, first extract the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file and launch the adobe_cf.exe by hand.  (Snafu Dspent install was different from mine, but his position has been very valuable and started me in the right direction.)

  6. has obtained a copy of the file rarunzipper and extracted from the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe .

  7. in the windows directory created in step 6, I have launched adobe_cf.exe.

  8. the same thing (, the installation application closes. No error, no nothing. Log file No.).

  9. I look at the hs_err_pidxxxx.log file (where the xxxx is a number).

  10. I see inside this file, a disturbing message: 'a fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime' then ' framework issue ntdll.dll ' , then ' the accident happened outside the Virtual Machine Java to native code ".

  11. OK, now I'm thinking ntdll.dll. Native code! It's like Java tells me that for some reason any, that he can't dance with the operating system.

  12. on a hunch, I decided to test a CF install again on a server with just the installation of SP2 64 W3K3 (ie: skip step 2 above this time).

  13 bingo! That the installation works.

  14. as a result, one of the 63 patches that I had downloaded from MS had triggered a problem with Setup see

  15. back on the first server (with MS installed security patches and that CF installs not on). In the adobe_cf.lax of file CF (one of the files extracted in step 6), there is a line that mentions where the installation gets it is java. Find this file, and check java version Installer uses. It is using 1.6.0_14 - b08.

  16. on the way to the Java website, and there is a newer version of java (1.6.0_24 - b07). Downloaded and installed IT.

  17. change a line in adobe_cf.lax :
  front
  lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
  After
  Lax.nl.Current.VM=C:\\Program files\\java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
  (this assumes that you leave step 16 install to the default location)
  Save the file.

  18. run installation ... * IT WORKS ! *

  Obviously, the built-in java provided with the installation of the CF program is no longer compatible with some changes introduced by a recent update of MS on SP2 64 b. W2K3 platform

  And now comes the interesting part. Although I made the installer to use the new java, it had not incorporated into the generation of CF (ie: in following, you see always c:/coldfusion9/execution/jre AND the java.exe version that is located in this directory is the original version, not the latest version, I forced the installation program to use).

  On the surface, CF looks OK, but I did not test any application yet.

  And finally my
  * QUESTION *.
  Var java.home would be appropriate just to point to the new java directory? I see that the structure of directories and files are not exactly the same (well close) so I am certainly not break things by doing this, but instinct tells me that if the installer beat using the old version, then something else will bring down the road if I do not use the new version. On the other hand, the differences between files and directories is enough that it makes me very nervous with my skill set java limitied to make that decision. 

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi Byron,

  Wow great post no doubt much of the information will be useful for those who have Win03 SP2 +. Must say not come across the similar problem on Win08 r2 SP1 +.

  So, to your question. Adobe (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html) security bulletin recommends to run CF8 and CF9 with JVM 1.6.0_24. The bulletin does not say how to do this. I take you installed the JDK and not only JRE 1.6.0_24? After installation of monitoring JDK as follows:

  Stop the CF - stop SERVICES.msc "ColdFusion 9 application server.

  Take a copy of CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config - so you have a backup.

  Change the line CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config find "java.home =" and comment it for example:

  #java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre

  Add the new line like and save next:

  Java.Home = C: / Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_24/jre

  Note he slashes and the location of the JRE (runtime): you must point to that of JDK, because the other JRE in C:\Program Files\Java\jre6 will be missing a DLL.

  Start CF via SERVICES.msc.

  HTH, Carl.

• Canvio Basic 2 TB suddenly stopped working after Xbox update?

  While to say that the title of the hard drive has stopped working once an update has taken place on the Xbox one a few days ago.

• HP ENVY laptop - 15-ae178ca: Second monitor stopped working after the automatic update of HP

  I use my laptop with a second monitor (HP Pavillion 22xw) connected by HDMI. It was working fine until yesterday (including yesterday it worked), when a message from automatic upgrade HP was shown to informing him that the system needs to be restarted. After that, my second monitor stopped working. The system will not identify it more. I tried another cable, I rebooted several times, I tried to update the specific Intel graphics driver, I tried to uninstall and install manually another (I can't get this one done, because when I run manually downloaded driver there is a message saying that I need to contact the manufacturer). Please notify that I need my second monitor is fully functional!

  Hello @MAlex_B,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

  I understand that you have a problem with the display and wanted to help you!  I see only after an update, the external monitor no longer works.

  Given that this problem happened recently, have you tried to perform a System Restore, to define the notebook to its previous working state?  If this does not work, have you tried to update the drivers of graphics Chipset and BIOS on the HP website directly?  You can find the drivers for you product here: drivers - HP's ENVY for laptop - 15-ae178ca

  Please post back with the results.  Let me know if this information helps you solve the problem by marking this message as 'accept as Solution', this will help others easily find the information they seek.  In addition, by clicking on the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thank you!

  Hi @DPF0225,
  
  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!
  
  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook and problems with the WiFi doesn't work does not correctly.

  Some say that you could restore the BIOS using factory default values with this. Here is a document that shows you how to restore the default BIOS settings. In this way, it will look at the hardware installed on your laptop.

  You can try to use theWindows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

  Please let me know how it goes.

• HP Pavilion dv6-6b57sa suddenly stopped working and will not now to power on. Help, please!

  OK, so I'm a new student and my laptop has just decided to stop working. I had the laptop for 2 years but I have not used until I came to College. Long story short, I wanted to use it as a working laptop and one im using now for media.

  Anyway, I started the dv6 and it was fine so I jumped to get a coffee. As I got home I heard a click and then the screen was cut off and now it will not turn back. I tried the hard reset, take out the battery for 15 minutes. The battery charge indicator does not come on either. I use an original HP charger and have connected it to a plug adapter multiple with an influx of cutting on it.

  No LED, no noise, no charge indicator. Can someone help me with this, extremely upset I've saved this laptop for her than to die in the first week.

  Not sure, but there's less chance of it. Given that the laptop is not put under tension with other adapters. You must take it to store to get the verified motherboard.

• LifeCam has suddenly stopped working after many years

  Original title: problem with my Microsoft Lifecam VX-6000

  Problem with my Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000.  I used my LifeCam several times when using Skype, but now it will not work.  I examined a large number of questions and answers that are listed in the support forum but nothing I found fixes my problem.  I am running Vista Home Premium on my HP #SR5050NX PC with a 32-bit operating system.  I used this webcam for many years without any problems, but now it will not work.  I reinstalled the current drivers on the Microsoft site and it appears in Device Manager that the drivers are correct for the LifeCam VX-6000 webcam.  When I try to open Microsoft LifeCam it locates my camera and the green light comes on but no picture.  When using Skype, he finds the camera LifeCam 6000 but gives me a message that it cannot use this device because it might already be in use by another application, but no other application works.  I have also a Cisco Webcam that I have in the past to select which camera I wanted to use while Skyping but he stopped working at the same time my LifeCam 6000 ceased.  I get the same message... This webcam cannot be used because it might already be in use.  The drivers are correct on this camera as well.  What can I do to fix this?

  Thanks, I appreciate your help and your support!

  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
