• network card and other missing drivers after you have installed windows 7 ultimate on my elitebook 8540w

  HP Elitebook 8540w, model WH137AW #ABA - this laptop and was previously running a trial version of windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I wanted to install windows 7 ultimate 64-bit. I chose to install instead of upgrade that I assumed that the demo version was not expandable. Before the installation, I was able to connect to a wireless network with success. After you have installed windows 7 ultimate successfully, I was more able to connect or see all the networks. The diagnosis error indicates that I can miss a network card, or if I don't have one, the driver may need to be reinstalled. I saw a previous post and answer that looked very similar, but the difference is that I am out of my network card driver, so I'm not able to download any other drivers. -help me please!

  Yes... you can do. If you get confused on what to install, please provide the hardware ID.

• After new XP installed the computer sees my old CD Drive not my new DVD drive

  After new XP installed the computer sees my old CD Drive not my new DVD player.   My newest DVD burner was in the computer before I did the reformat and install again, but for some reason any my old CD player shows. He is no longer in the machine!

  Yes, I did what the measurements LITEON told me to do and I work like a dream! I went to do computer right click, click on manage, click on Device Manager, click on CD-ROM/DVD-ROM, double on this box, click on DVD region, mine had an empty box, I sailed to USA clicked OK, did a restart AND IT WORKS LIKE a DREAM!     I hope that the foregoing will help someone else!     Thanks for your time!

• W700 install missing drivers after own W10 (deleted partition)

  I do "Update Driver Software-> automatically search" and W10 does not do anything.

  TVSU (LSU) does not also something missing

  I thought at some point given TVSU / USJ was able to detect missing drivers, this changed? If Yes please bring back :-)

  Also (most important) can someone please indicate which packages that I have to install.

  Thank you

  I decided to Google the IDS of devices and found another Lenovo user with similar problems (but on Win7).

  I installed versions "Win-7" of the drivers and they worked.

• DeskJet 832c disappeared ink after new cartridges installed.

  I have a deskjet 832c missing ink after installing new cartridges (23/45).   Strange, but just recently, it does not print MS Word doc but prints OutLook e-mail.  Test page prints OK but faded.  B & W only options but no change and tried to color.  Removed the printer and let Win re-find-the XP (drivers) and no change.  any ideas?

  No lights or error messages.

  No new application installed on the PC.

  O/s updates are performed regularly.

  Identify the root cause.  The date code on the cartridge has been since 2008!  Apparently, I had an old cartridge laying around and finally take advantage.  After the installation of a "fresh" cartridge (2014 date code), the printer is back to normal.

  I always find it interesting that 2008 cartridge didn't print documents from MS word but print e-mail and test pages OK (but faded) w / the option to print black and white...

  in any case, case closed.

• HP pavilion dv7-6111eo: various missing drivers after having reinstalled Win7 64 bit on hp pavilion dv7-6111eo

  Aloha

  First of all... I'm not grumpy, geek or nerd... And I want to say these words to those who are at best.

  In this case, you need to see me as a kid in kindergarten, being taken by the hand and what to do, down on every detail. Sad but true.

  Without me know why, I've known several DLL files missing, and often obtained on those error messages.

  A pain in the neck, so I re-installed Windows 7 64 bit, because I didn't want to mess with these missing dll.

  After this relocation, I couldn't have the internet connection to my router. Fortunately, I have a fixed 10 year and longer, where I eventually found the driver I needed, so it works now.

  But now it seems that there are several other drivers missing or not installed.

  I got a little info, another post, it must provide information and hope that will be enough. If this isn't the case, then please let me know additional information which may be required, and where I can find those on my PC, so I can provide these.

• Looking for missing drivers after downgrading

  I got a new HP Envy 700 - 030qe CTO of Windows 8 for Windows 7.

  First question: is there a place I can get ALL the compatible drivers for this machine on Win7?  I'm sure that HP sold this machine exactly (or almost exact) a few months ago with Win 7 on it?  If someone can tell me the model number then I could order the recovery for her disc, hopefully.  I have a legal copy of Win7 with license key, all I need is the drive to recover to Win7.  Even if this is not correct, it would be closer to that you are looking for a bunch of missing drivers one by one.

  Second question:

  I could find most of the drivers except something that presents itself as a USB controller (although most of the USB ports seems to work, maybe all of them).  Any idea what to try for this HP drivers:

  CONTROLLER USB - Hardware ID

• Missing drivers after recovery

  Dear HP,

  I just had the unfortunate experience of having to re - install Windows 7, but not through the recovery option, because it did not work.

  It seems my PC works with the exception of some drivers, including ethernet drivers. Without internet, it is very difficult to get the updates and other drivers. I am currently working for my wife's PC in the hope of resolving the problem quickly.

• Install the missing drivers after cleaning to Windows 7 from XP

  Hello. I have a custom computer I upgraded from xp to Windows 7 Home Premium. Everything worked perfectly before the upgrade. After the upgrade, my multimedia card, PCI, has stopped working and The Geek Squad, nor the built-in convenience store could find the drivers for it. It says "code OxC004C008 and 28 for the NTativrv01". then another message said: "PCI simple communications controller - no driver; then "Mlti-media conroller does not have a pilot.  appreciate any help I can get. Thank you

  1 a helpful to take before step same you've solved these problems is to create two alternative accounts protected by password Admin-level.

  • Accounts of users & their safety are taken much more seriously in Windows 7 so the tricks we learned under XP can not help us any more.
  • [No matter what account can suffer from corruption of the profiles user and if it's your main account and you have no spare Admin account to access the system, then you have a serious problem that we are not even allowed to advise you in this forum other than to suggest a complete reinstall of Windows 7].
  • If you have these two alternative accounts then, because they are rarely used, they are less likely to suffer from the corruption that is in use.
  • So even if you have problems in your account you can then log in as one of them and solve the problem.
  • You must write the passwords and ensure the safety of the sheet of paper.  You could do 'Password' reset disks instead, but they are not more effective than a piece of paper and they will also have to be stored somewhere in the place safe.

  2. did you run the Windows 7 compatibility checker before the upgrade?  You can start now and its results will always help you.  See Windows 7, 8.1, 10 compatibility tests for Windows XP, Vista - WiKi

  3 then see where to find the hardware drivers to treat your problems with your multimedia controller etc.

  4 once you get these things sorted, then you want to probably ensure that you get a Windows 10 forced update before you're ready - see disable Windows 10 improvement and ignore someone who starts to tell disable you updates specific Windows or turn off Windows update itself because it's all nonsense.

  5 like many of us when we arrived first of XP, you reach not used 'images of the system' which is worth doing as soon as you have a system worth preserving - so you probably want to turn it off until you have fixed your problem with drivers hardware.

  • You can make an image of the system in less than half an hour.
  • You can restore an image system in less than half an hour and thus replace problems based on software, including problems of drivers, who have appeared on your computer.
  • Search for create a system image using Windows to get an introduction to & use,
  • Then go into Control Panel, [view by - small icons, if necessary], Backup & Restore for the link on the left side to create a system image to run the utility.
  • Note that you should not make the system repair disc which will find references to your Windows 7 installation disc can do what a system repair disc can [etc.].
  • Target the most convenient & reliable to record images of system on is an external hard drive.  An image of the system does not have the external hard drive to any target, so it can also be used for other purposes such as the storage of your current file backups.
  • Rewritable DVD is not as reliable and you need several whenever you made a new image.
  • Utility of third to party system images can be better that the built-in Windows utility I use Acronis TI which has a very good reputation.  Macrium Reflect free edition also has a good reputation.  But you can start with the built-in utility, and then you worry about the alternatives later.

  All the best,

• Tecra A3 (PTA30E) - some missing drivers after reinstalling XP

  Hello

  Ive had my tecra A3 PTA30-E for some time now and the built-in wireless has always worked.

  Last month, I got a fatal error on my XP SP3 (damaged or missing ntoskrnl.exe) and wouldn't boot, I finally followed the fault to a sector corrupted on my HARD drive. After a complete format and reinstallation of XP SP3, I have my laptop in service again but less my wireless and my wired network adapters and a couple of other devices. I used the pilot site to download all my drivers and BIOS update toshiba and installed it all. Ive got most of the work including my ethernet devices so that I could connect to the net via a cable.

  Then I wanted to install the drivers on the wireless but when I look in device manager theres no wireless option and its not in "network adapters" either. The switch at the front of the laptop for the wireless is on and the light is lite and fn + f8 does nothing

  I even tried the Toshiba diagnostic tool and comes as all the drivers and cannot do not regiester built theres in wireless is

  I have still 4 devices that were not installed ("other devices"? ") and they are"
  ? multimedia audio controller
  ? network controller
  ? video controller
  ? video controller (vga compatible)

  I tried to download all possible wireless LAN drivers and place them in a folder and then said he's looking for the driver for the '? network controller "in this folder, but it is not installed as no driver found."

  Is it '? network controller "my case, nothing to do with the wireless or wireless card?"

  Suggestions welcome as I exhausted on this one

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  First network controller can mean both LAN or WLAN card. If you check the vendor and device ID in Device Manager, you identify which device it is exactly. So please check the Web from Toshiba site for drivers:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  As far as I know multimedia audio controller means that the audio driver and the display driver video controller.

  But just one question: why you n t use the Toshiba Recovery disk? There are all the pre-installed drivers.
