Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.

Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.

Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
get new manually if you wish.

  • Why does Firefox always minimize/resize? Using F11 is a spotty solution that does not always work

  • HP ENVY 17 Leap Motion SE: Dual boot Windows 10 with 8.1 - Start menu screen does not always watch.

    I bought the full version of Windows 10 House because I want to keep my factory installed Win 8.1 x 64 and dual boot with the new OS.

    Installation went without problems - on a partition separated after the reduction of the C: partition by default, but when I restart my PC, start menu does not always appear for make me decide which system to choose and the computer boots directly to Windows 8.1.  I even turned off "time to display list of operating systems" when Windows 10 is selected by default OS, but when I turn off my PC for a short period and put back on, I am greeted by Windows 8.1

    Could be a bios or partition related question? Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

    Hello

    Thank you for posting this and for letting me know it now works for you (which is acceptable to you).

    In fact, what you describe above is not a bug, but it should. This is because Microsoft has changed a bit the boot process and the stop function since Win 8 (which means Windows 8, 8.1 and now 10). Instead of the stop full as in Windows XP, Vista, 7, Windows 8, 8.1, and 10 (when he is chosen to turn off) will stop, but closing them is a kind of hibarnation. For this reason, what describe you above is going on (he begins the latest OS because it was really completely out).  Full done restart restarts and it meets the place where the OS is selected.

    More information-> http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/how-windows-8-hybrid-shutdown-fast-boot-feature-works/

    This mode ensures a faster start-up (on cause of so-called half restart).

  • Citing the phone dial pad does not always

    Hi all

    I need to call phone telephone keypad with number pre-filled, however Phone::requestDialpad does not always work. If the phone application has never been used for startup of the phone, then calling Phone::requestDialpad evokes it without switching to the keypad (if so I manually go, I can see it filled with the number, I have passed to requestDialpad). When I close the phone application and call Phone::requestDialpad from within my application again, everything starts to work - phone application appears and switches on the dial pad.

    Is this a known problem or I do something wrong? I have also reviewed as part of Invocaion, but the manual is not described anything to activate keypad - only for phone calls and showing the call log. Is there a MIME type or action to show just Dial Pad with pre-populated number?
