  Hello grasshopper.

  This problem may be caused mainly by broken printer drivers, this could have been caused when you installed the updates. I suggest that you start with a restoration of the system on the computer by choosing a restore point when it was working fine.

  a. Click Start, type system restore in the search box and then in the list click on the system restore program.

  b. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  (c) in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.

  d. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

  e. click Finish.

  You can see the following article for reference:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

  You can also try driver restore on the computer and check if it helps.

  To roll back a driver in Windows send the driver to the version that was finally installed for the device. Restoring a driver is an easy way to return a driver for a working version when a driver update fails to fix a problem or maybe even a new problem.

  a. open the Device Manager. To do this, click Start, type device in the area Manager search and then click on Device Manager in the list programs.

  b. right click on the device for which the previous version of the driver is desired and then click Properties.

  c. click the tab drivers.

  d. click on Roll Back Driver.

• J4580 printer not recognized by Windows 8

  Hi all, thank you very much in advance for the help.

  I tried to install HP Officejet J4580 Windows 8 64-bit, but its not recognized at all. Seesms that Windows does not recognize device correctly with the latest driver installed or uninstalled. The printer itself is work corretly (with the same cable on Fedora). I also tried HP tools for printers, but all ask me to connect the printer connected (as well as the isnatller).

  See you soon,.

  Ivan

  Well, I want you to go through the steps, I described above in my first set of instructions on how to uninstall/reinstall the printer.

  In addition to these steps, I will need to go to your C: drive and record programs and the programs (x 86) folder deletes files HP or Hewlett-Packard (assuming that the printer is the only device HP).

  Press on the R of Key + Windows which will bring up the run window. Type "%AppData%" and remove all HP / Hewlett-Packard records. Do the same for "programdata %."

  Reinstall the printer from the download that I linked.

  As a quick question, you upgrade to Win8 or it was installed?

• Stor.e slim not recognized by Windows 8.1

  Hello

  A Stor.e slim external HARD drive is not recognized in Windows 8.1 (no problem with Windows 7). When it is plugged in, it s shown as a device not recognized. Driver is requested but not found.

  Hello

  Stor.E Slim external HARD drive is a 2.5 HDD USB 3.0 and 900mA power it requires to work correctly.

  I suppose that there is nothing wrong with this HARD drive, but with your laptop.

  8/8.1 win requires different drivers and you will probably need to install a suitable driver in order to get the USB ports work correctly (USB 3.0 as well as the driver additional chipset would be also necessary).

• Optical drive is not recognized in Windows 8.1 (x 64) or in the UEFI System Diagnostics.

  Description of the problem:

  Optical drive is not recognized in Windows 8.1 (x 64) or in the UEFI System Diagnostics.

  Steps to recreate:

  UEFI:

  1. Start the PC in diagnosis system UEFI (F2 at the STATION)
  2. Pane controls
  3. Optical drive
  4. Sequential control
  5. Error: Optical drive not installed.

  8.1 Windows (x 64):

  1. Run Device Manager
  2. Error: No CD/DVD Drives section.
  3. Search for new hardware changes nothing.

  Relevant system specs:

  Mobile: HP Pavilion 15-n023sa (construction of vanilla)

  Optical drive: HP DVDRAM gu70n

  Steps already taken to solve:

  • Replaced the DVD drive with one of the similar specs of HP Pavilion. The replaced gn70n perfectly in the other machine. No change on problem laptop. Conclusion: DVD player works, and there is no problems with Windows 8.1 (x 64).
  • Removed DVD player. Restarted the computer. Sign in to Windows. Stop. Replace the DVD drive. Start the laptop. This is trying to solve defects of material with the PnP devices; more help to solve any problems of intermittent loose connection. Conclusion: No change.
  • Ran, troubleshooting of hardware and devices, via the control panel. Problem found: material changes may not have been detected. Explore more options just takes you through http://social.answers.microsoft.com/search/en-us/?query=hardware+device, that it is a 404 error page. Conclusion: Help and Support Windows is sorely lacking. They show no more information than just that something was detected as incorrect.
  • Ran the Microsoft FixIt troubleshooting of optical disc and auto repairman. (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/5/8/F586FB7C-78E0-40EB-AF41-4C925F803CAF/CDDVDWin8.meta.dia... The convenience store has reported that the device was not found. He recommended to remove all power cables, power off, and various other things which have no relevance for computer laptop troubleshooting of switching equipment. He said: If the problem persists, contact the manufacturer. Conclusion: Windows troubleshooting can not solve the problem.
  • Run Windows Update to ensure that all updates and definitions have been installed. Conclusion: Windows is perfectly up to date.
  • Run a complete Rootkit and malware using Sbybot S & D 2.3 heuristic analysis. as a signature database scan using Windows Defender. Conclusion: Laptop is clean of rootkits and malware, to the best of my knowledge.

  Notes:

  The DVD player is NOT appear in Device Manager, OR in this PC.

  The DVD drive is NOT detected by diagnostics system UEFI.

  There is reference to the DVD in BIOS drive NUMBER , other than as an option of Setup, which is generic.

  The DVD player itself, works and has been verified on a different machine.

  The only possible conclusion is that the optical drive port mini-SATA on the motherboard is dead.

• Yoga Pro 2 - display not recognized in windows (hardware or driver problem?)

  Out of warranty by a month!

  Yoga Pro 2-256 gb, installed a new wireless card a month ago. Windows 8.1

  The touchscreen still work while the screen is black.

  System restarted after the mode 'sleep', in my opinion.

  The Lenovo logo is displayed, seems to load Windows, but when windows loads (I don't see it so it is a hypothesis of load) drafts of the screen and the black light is on.

  Can I connect an external monintor that connects after the return from sleep mode (odd). Who then off the backlight.

  When the external monitor, the internal screen is not yet recognized by windows.

  When I boot in safe mode, the internal display works fine with of course limited capabilities.

  I rebooted on the support site display drivers.

  Right now my internal monitor is not recognized by windows and is dark, and I can use an external monitor.

  Someone at - he of the clues as to what my happen? Hardware, driver etc?

  Can what information I provide?

  It is a pretty weird problem with contradictory observations.

  (1) screen working in Mode safe but not regular boot. (So not the hardware problem)

  (2) display on an external monitor in normal mode. (So, no drivers issue)

  Have you installed the wireless card yourself? You unplug the cable from the screen during the installation of the card?

  Could you re - open and check that all connections are good?

  The Wi - Fi card works well?

  I also recommend a complete reset of the laptop to eliminate the possibility that it is a corrupt driver. You can use the NOVO button to reset your laptop. Make sure you make a backup on an external drive for your personal files.
