Is deactivation of an element in the device enough Manager to avoid performance problems?

In Device Manager, I show two entries that have an open red on them when x. One is called Intel 537EP Modem and the other multimedia Audio Controller. The element of this second icon is a yellow question mark. Both are disabled in the properties. Deactivation is enough to remove them from the list of things THAT XP tries to start or load when I boot? I have a slow start; about 4.5 minutes. I don't know what is the modem. I use a USB wireless to a router in the House that goes to a DSL connection. I didn't use a modem for dial-up days. And I don't know what this audio controller - I have a sound card Sound Blaster Audigy which works very well. I tried to look into the BIOS to see if there was an additional way for XP does not try to access these two elements x'd, but could not find either.

The 537EP is a voice / fax modem I think and the audio system may be integrated multimedia audio controller (because you use a soundblaster (which is a PCI/PCI-E card)? SoundBlaster island isn't on board / part of the motherboard?

Disable the audio system built into the BIOS. The only way to remove the entry of the modem in Device Manager, open the case and remove the modem

Double-click the modem entry, what is the error on the general tab?

  • HP Pro450 G2: Disabling certain features of the Device Access Manager

    I want to transfer data to my new laptop. To do this, I plugged a USB portable device from Seagate. Access to Device Manager then invites me my Windows password. So far I have not (yet) problems, but while I am trying to transfer data (300 GB) which lasts a few hours, the Device Access Manager appears a ball EVERY 15 minutes asking a password confirmation. I want to disable this current 15 minutes for a password prompt. If I'm not in front of the PC and the miss the bubble pop up then data transfer stops and I have to start over. SO BORING.

    As I said, I do not fear demand for a password when the device is connected, but the interval of 15 minutes for a password entry must be disabled. I can't stay here all night when you do backups of data for the ball wating to pop-up every 15 minutes.

    Kind regards

    You can uninstall Device Access Manager for HP ProtectTools without any concern.  It is only there to prevent users from connecting devices and copy the data from external drives.  For most people, it is not even necessary.  Simply go to the Control Panel window and uninstall through programs & features.

  • Why is my lack of training:, but the drive is listed in the devices/hardware Manager

    OS Windows XP Pro, two identical computers both with USB 2.0.  The Freecom 250 GB external hard drive USB comes and works ok on one but not on the second PC.  Its icon appear briefly in 'My computer', but disappeared when I tried to access.     The drive appears in "Device Manager" under "drives" like Samsung HM 250JI USB Device. "  He was also listed as a USB Mass Storage Device in 'Remove hardware safely' but no drive letter.

    I have re-formatted the USB key as a drive on the first computer, one also made by error-checking complete to include repair and defragmentation, whereupon I transferred the drive to the second computer, but without success.   Maybe I should give up just the drive because I have a very good IOMEGA USB drive.

    I would be grateful for any advice.

    Hi Richard,

    Try the following.

    Method 1: Run the Fixit tool in the following article.

    A computer that is running Windows XP cannot detect a USB, an Apple iPod flash drive or an external hard disk drive


    Method 2:
    update the computer with the latest chipset drivers and also any other device drivers. Log computer manufacturer site to do so.

  • Windows machine is in a constant reboot loop. HP has been working on the device and there is no hardware problem. Microsoft support said there are corrupted in windows files and we were able to repair windows.

    HP is sending me a CD to reboot for Vista and say these original files are on my hard drive. The risk is of losing all the data. I'm embarrassed to say I didn't have a backup or set a restore point in the years I've had the machine
    So my concern is to lose all e-mails, documents, images, videos, and music, a lot of itunes. Microsoft feels that they can get the computer restarted without damage and data. Apple suggested I install a product open source, Ubuntu and use the file manager in this OS to unload the files. I studied a little and it seems too risky.  My question is this; What is the best way to save my files as part of the reboot process?

    You follow what I said.
    We don't know what data is on which drive.

    1 and 2 requires that remove you your hard drive.
    1 means install you also in another computer as a slave drive.

    If you think that labor is out of your reach, see a local computer repair shop.

  • My eBook device constantly throws E_ADEPT_CORE_USER_NOT_ACTIVATED, but my Adobe ID is registered with the device, how can I solve this problem?

    I tried to get this problem fixed compared to the cat, but they were not at all useful.

    The problem is I have a splinter Tolino, and for some reason when I plugged in my 3 Surface Pro so that he would free Adobe DRM authorization has been lost. So, when I went to turn it back on in the book, I realized that I had forgotten the password. And I went to the Adobe site and requested a change of password has changed. I then went back to my Tolino and activated the Adobe ID it and everything seemed good, until I tried to read a book. He told me that the Adobe DRM is not activated and he raises the error E_ADEPT_CORE_USER_NOT_ACTIVATED.

    How can I solve this problem?

  • When I receive a message with an attached large xml file, I have to wait long until Thunderbird shows and displays the contents of the file. How to avoid this problem.

But Thunderbird always try to read the contents of an xml file in order to show ALL he's happy. If the file is large, it takes a lot of time, so the Thunderbirds crashes usually on, so I have to restart.

  • Satellite A350 - FM tuner appears in the Device Manager?

    I have a FM tuner device, but I don't see that he listed in Device Manager. I checked hidden devices and it does not always show.

    How to see it in the list of drivers in the driver manager? (Why she get hidden well?)

    Where this device get its drivers or is it without a driver and only works with the tuner NXP software and the antenna

    Thanks for any help on this

    Hello perfection,

    Do you mean a FM tuner Satellite A350 internal or external one?
    As far as I know the Satellite A350 doesn t have FM tuner

    If you have an external FM tuner have you installed the driver for it? If so it should be listed in the device if Manager she s connected to the laptop.

  • Windows starts fine, but the Device Manager is empty. nothing else works besides the top of office

    Windows xp sp3-basically a six year old child was playing on the computer. I didn't know that the idea that he did. Looks like he has deleted all devices. There are simply not there. When I click on the drives, it completes. Everythings still on disks. I tried to reboot in safe mode. the computer turns on and off the fine. He can't get WiFi to install if no network. the computer was a prize won my daughter, no disc, but it's all legitimate. his recorded a son-in-law john r.  He has a floppy drive, a dvd burner and cd burner. It is in great shape before this happened. im hoping that this is a simple reboot or something im just missing.

    Hi Cindy,.

    ·         Device Manager is empty?

    ·         You have installed Windows XP Service Pack 3?

    Method 1: Check to see if this article helps you.

    None of the items appear in the device list manager when you open

    Method 2: You can run the Microsoft Safety Scanner to search for infection by the virus. Check out the following link.

  • How to remove the device when the icon is not present in the taskbar

    When I attach material to my laptop the software always removal icon in the bar spots.  When I already have the material to be fixed at a fresh start it is not displayed.  Should I go somewhere in the Panel to uncheck and check always show?  Where can I find the menu for this view?  How can I delete a material without the icon, or how always to get the icon appears?

    Here is an article I found via Google:

    (1) with a USB stick inserted, right-click on the drive in 'My computer' and select 'Properties' then 'material '.
    2) click on your equipment in the list and select 'Properties' again.
    (Alternatively you can double-click the disk in Control Panel > system properties > Device Manager > hard drives)
    3) click on 'policies '. Normally, the "Optimize for quick removal" button will be active - but do not change it. Instead click on the link "Remove the device safely" to "optimize for performance".
    (4) new, select your hardware and click on "Stop". Click on 'OK '. This will stop your material and it can now be removed. This is a work around the missing icon, but you do not make more than once - the icon 'Remove hardware safely' should now appear normally in the Notification area whenever ANY removable device is reinserted - hopefully for good.
    (5) ensure that the icon is not hidden in "Customize the Notifications" as described above. This worked for a USB (USB key) under XP flash drive but could work for other removable devices as well. (for example use this procedure with a USB key to fix the missing icon for removable CD / DVD drive on your laptop)
    (6) take a look at any software download that installed applications of connectivity as part of the package for example iTunes, Ovi Player. Uninstall (Add/Remove Programs), and then reinstall (extract from the web site) and re - simply enter your account details. Clear any corruption with these can bring back the USB support.
    (7) another possible reason for losing the icon is the TCP/IP stack is corrupted and needs to reset. Search Microsoft for their utility to achieve this. He is quite on the web (very painless).

    It seems that your user profile is damaged, so these steps may or may not help. You scanned for viruses or other malicious software recently? Did you program updates could cause this behavior?

    Have you tried a system restore to a point before you started having this problem? Or if it came from a good time?

  • The limit of the device must be less than or equal to the limit of life cycle license in first cisco 2.2

    Hi all

    I have seen under error in the tool main 2.2 Cisco infrastructure

    The limit of the device must be less or equal to the limit of license of life cycle and also secondary device ISE inaccessible since premium.

    Could you please suggest how we can solve your problem.

    Thanks in advance...

    Kind regards

    Sachin

    Yes. Life cycle license are by smart device managed. See this page for a good overview:

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/cloud-systems-management/Prime...

    .. as well as this page:

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/cloud-systems-Managemen...

    .. who States:

    Life cycle license: allows access to all the features of the life cycle, which includes the configuration of the devices, image management software, basic health and performance monitoring, fault management, troubleshooting and customer visibility on the network. The license of the life cycle is based on the number of managed devices. Life cycle of the licenses are available in sizes from package of 25, 50, 100, 500, 1000, 2500, 5000, 10,000 and 15 000 devices and can be combined as needed to reach a total number of device under license.

    A device is uniquely identified through the assigned IP address and system object ID (SysOid). Routers, switches, light/unified access points and network first Cisco (NAMs) analysis Modules are charged on the number of licenses. If a switch stack is managed via a single IP address, it counts as a single device. A single frame will, however, be counted as multiple devices if the chassis is configured with several IP addresses. For example, a switch with several service cards, such as a firewall and so forth, or a stackable switch with an IP address assigned to each switch who is involved in the stack is considered multiple devices within the first Cisco Infrastructure. Cisco Wireless LAN controllers (WLCs), autonomous and peripheral access points third are not counted against the number of licenses.

    When you have more devices that licenses, you will receive the error see you and prevented from adding additional devices to your inventory.

    We see it more often when it is light (i.e. not independent) APs are added to a wireless controller. PI will not prevent the new APs to be added, they are managed under their association with the WLC. However, if you try to add a new switch it would prevent you to do until the deficit of licenses has been sent.
