Once you install a new printer firmware for your printer, is it possible to return to the earlier version of the firmware of the printer in case an error occurs?
Once you install a new printer firmware for your printer, is it possible to return to the earlier version of the firmware of the printer in case an error occurs?
It may be an option, as long as the error prevents you to connect to the machine. Even so, some firmware update software will not allow a downgrade. This is something that you should go to the manufacturer of the printer for more information.

Any help would be greatly appreciated?
Thank you

HI Maria/Winston.Not, trying to be coy but. I've never had close the firewall to load anything. It will be, or at least should invite you to make a choice to leave the program to run or not? Nevertheless.If you have windows activation hurt you firewall can reactivate manually without going through the bugs that you can not. If you click Start and choose the runtime application. Type cmd, and then press ENTER. When the command prompt box appears type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes. He'll say firewall reactivated and ask for a reboot. Restart the computer and it will be active again. Just trying to help.
Hi Winston/Hewlit,
Thank you both for your advice.While waiting for your answers, I pushed all sorts of buttons and downloaded all kinds of programs in the hope that I could break the firewall (Hewlit the printer I tried to install says to disable the firewall to install the printer, and then turn it back on?).After a reboot, the message 'corrupt windows\system32 etc' file came and asked me to put in the original disc of Windows XP, I did not.Cut a long story short, I have now booked for a technician to come out as I'm totally lost.Thanks again for your help,M -

Original title: Signature Collision?
I'm having hard to the installation of a second external drive. I use Windows 7 Ultimate RC. There was a WD 1 TB drive My Book already installed - healthy and works very well. The problem occurred after installing a second WD 1 TB my book reader. I followed all the instructions, pluuging the drive to a USB hub. Windows found the disk, installed drivers and reported the new drive ready for use.
Windows Explorer does not see the new drive. Devices and printers shows 2 external drives from WD. Disk Management shows as 2 drives, but the second disk is offline because of a 'Signature' Collision
Each player works very well if it's the only drive plugged in. "Eject My Book" does not work because a program (or more) are to use the player in the background (Windows or Norton).
I installed the latest firmware and I'm still having this problem. I've been emailing WD with this problem and they are running out of ideas.
Can anyone help?
Thank you

I can't access internet wirelessly from my laptop because I installed a new printer which is now connected to my router, is - it related somehow?
Hello
1. what happens when you use a wired connection?
2. how many devices are connected to the router?
This can happen if you connect that a specific number of device to the router, and when it exceeds the limit. You can consult the router's manual or contact the manufacturer of the router to check if all the parameters must be changed to connect several devices.
Hope this information is useful.

When you install a new application, is it necessary to start from a clean boot to ensure that no application works? Somewhere, a long time ago, we advised me to always be in a boot environment when installing new applications and have always respected this notice since. However, I recently learned that is not necessary and may even be counterproductive because some Microsoft Services are needed for new facilities. My goal is to have no corrupted installations to avoid future problems, but I have nothing seems to give me resistance gremlin 100% and I still have my share of challenges. Almost all applications that I install contains the warning to make sure that no application works before installing. Can anyone tell me with authority the best way to ensure that new installations of new applications please? In addition, the same orientation for Win XP Pro to do with Win 7 Home Premium please? Thank you.
YW. Yes, I think an important thing to take away is to realize that it is better to only install the necessary Windows updates 'priority '. There is one exception, apparently. Recently, an MVP made me notice that updates to certificate root (which although considered "Optional" are virtually useful updates to security for IE) must be installed as well.
But others are optional and since then, they can be VERY problematic (especially updates of pilot and the dreaded Windows Search 4.0), you really should stay away from them!
Happy to help to explain things. Good luck!

I did a backup of the computer on my old HD 110 GB. Install a new 500 GB HD and restore complete pc but windows onliy see the 100 GB on the C drive and the 9.99 on the D drive that were on my old HD and do not see the additional 400 GB. How I can solve this problem.
Hi abgolf3,
The question may be how the new hard drive has been formatted. Take a look at the way in which the reader is implemented by clicking Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > double-click on computer management > double-click storage. Is all the space on the disk are responsible? If so, take a look at these two documents for your problem:
Format a hard drive or partition to NTFS format
