Hi Tayyab

When you decide to install a new version of Windows on an older computer, the first thing you need to do is to consult the manufacturer of the computer for the hardware drivers that are compatible with the new version of Windows.

The support material General laptop Dell Forum:

http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518.aspx

Search for your Dell product.

Dell support service provides support for your Dell product:

http://www.Dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/products

If Dell does not support the hardware on this model, you should try to find compatible drivers directly from the hardware manufacturers.

In Windows 7, press the Windows key + R to display the run dialog box.

Type msinfo32 in the Open box, and then click OK.

This will display information for the laptop, including all the material and information on the pilots.

    Make sure that Windows is updated appropriately that there have been several USB updates.

    1 check that the driver letters for them, for a player, if the drive of the default drive letter is changed, what is happening.
    Mine was h: I added a device that took H: and the player stopped. So I put it back to H: and the other
    device to J: and everything worked again. If necessary start - type in the area of research-> disk management find top
    -Right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

    Don't forget to remember the MP3 must be set to the PSG to sync with WMP, and meteorological service of Canada to copy and delete files
    and update the firmware.

    If no joy follow these steps:

    You may need a powered hub. (all the USB ports on your computer are not powered, often only 2)

    Try these:

    Make a Restore Point

    Control Panel - Device Manager - click in the empty area - VIEW - show hidden devices

    Here, your devices are the MP3 player.

    Now look everywhere EXCEPT the USB controllers for your devices (cannot be found) and if you find
    It RIGHT CLICK and UNINSTALL all.

    now go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers in the category, but the category itself.

    APPLY/OK

    RESET

    This refresh battery USB and hopefully it will allow the unit to install. (You may need a powered hub)

    Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need clear specific devices, as appropriate.

    This is a utility to help you, but do 1 above.

    You must remove all instances of the devices and restart.

    I hope this helps.

    Windows 7 does not recognize that a Canon canoscan 8000F is as a device when it is connected to the USB port.  Tried unplugging, reboot & reconnect, in different orders, but the computer does not recognize there is.  Tried to install a European website for Canon driver: Scangear CS, 8000fvst8120a_xpen.exe, which is advertised as compatible with Windows 7.   But the installer does not work.

    Hello Graboots,

    Thank you for your message.  You can plug your printer on another computer, in order to exclude the possibility that the problem lies in the printer?  You can try using a different cable, for this rule as well.  Since it is a question of recognition, we remove the external devices before software troubleshooting.  Do you get anything when you plug the printer (ie. a tinkle of connection)?  Please let us know, we are looking forward to hear back on your part.
    See you soon

  • Windows 7 does not recognize my Dell 2407WFP monitor - only as monitor not Plug-and-Play credits.

    This monitor is able to execute the resolution 1920 x 1200 and it worked well on the same laptop Dell Latitude D820 under XP Pro SP3. However, Windows 7 does not recognize the Dell Monitor (shows as non-Plug-and-Play monitor credits) and will go no higher than 1600 x 1200. The monitor on the laptop will run in 1920 x 1200 and also 1920 x 1200 poster XP running inside a virtual machine, so the problem is with Windows 7 not properly recognizing the Dell 2407WFP monitor in VGA mode. All other operating systems work very well to support the material properly.

    The laptop is running a NVidia Quadro NVS 120 M map. I tried several versions of Vista Dell drivers (do not have for Windows 7 - therefore Dell is not to follow). NVidia has no drivers for this card because it specially designed for Dell and all pilots must come from Dell (new Dell doesn't help here - I know that Windows 7 was just recently released but there are important suppliers for some time. Thought Dell was big by taking charge Microsoft with their business line of products but I think that even they cannot follow.

    It seems that the problem is also Windows 7 is not correctly identify the Dell monitor and many other monitors as well. Unfortunately, I doubt that this issue will never be resolved by Microsoft. I have yet to see that all the issues MS resolved long. I begin to see the truth in the last pub in Apple vs MS on television. Well the time to upgrade the new hardware.

    If anyone has a suggestion or a solution to solve this - I'm all ears!

    wait until that Dell publishes drivers for win 7 or you can contact them for the same thing.

  • My computer windows 8 does not recognize my Canon's SELPHY PRINTER. What can I do?

    My new computer Windows 8 does not recognize my Canon SELPHY printer. What can I do?

    [Moved from comments]

    Hi Jan,

    1. What is the number of the Canon Selphy printer model?

    2. have you installed the drivers from the printer?

    3 have you tried to plug it into different USB ports?

    I understand that you are not able to connect printer Canon Selphy on Windows 8.

    Check if the device is detected in Device Manager.
    Follow these steps:
    a. on the desktop, press the Windows key + X , and then select Device Manager.
    b. expand Print Queues , and then right-click on the printer.
    c. Select Properties , and then check to see if the device works properly under device status.

    Is there a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside, then it indicates that there is a problem with the drivers.

    Follow these methods and check if that helps.

    Method 1: It is easier to connect to a printer on Windows 8.  Simply plug the USB cable from your printer to a USB port available on your computer.  If the computer is not find the printer, then plug it into another USB port and verify.

    Some older printers can require additional information to complete the installation, so connect you using the Advanced Printer Setup.
    Reference: install a printer in Windows 8

    Method 2: If there are no printer drivers available for the printer, then I suggest you to install the driver in compatibility mode.
    Install the drivers in compatibility mode for Windows 7.

    Follow this link and install the drivers for the printer.

    http://www.USA.Canon.com/Cusa/support

    Check out the following link to install the drivers in compatibility mode.

  • Install Windows 8 does not recognize the system drive

    I built a new machine (chart below). Since this is a new machine and not an upgrade, I bought Win 8 Pro 64 bit OEM to do a clean install. The SSD is my system disk that Windows 8 will be installed. Four data drives are mirrored, two for the other two. Construction went perfectly. The BIOS recognizes all six disks: 1 SSD, 4 HDD, 1 DVD.

    Insert and boot the disk of Windows 8. Accept the EULA, enter the product key. Arriving at the page "Where do you want to install Windows?", only four hard disks are listed. The SSD (installation to go) is not found by Win 8. ??? I tried to change ports SATA, cables, power supply - no difference. For each new change of hardware, the BIOS still sees everything. This isn't a hardware problem.

    The question remains: why the installation of Windows 8 does not recognize the SSD drive. All five disks are on AHCI. I'm not in RAID.

    I spoke with crucial technical support of all (manufacturer of the SSD). They were also surprised that the drive does not appear in the list.

    Does anyone have a solution? I spent all the money on hardware, as well as the new version of Windows and I cannot install it.

    This is the real kick in the teeth: Microsoft won't support me. The OEM of Windows 8 version is the same as manufacturers, such as Dell or HP. Support told me I had the support of the manufacturer. HA! I am the manufacturer. Either that or upgrade from an earlier version of Windows. This means that any that a new construction machine will get ZERO assumption of Microsoft. All just great.

    Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    The DSS must be LOW LEVEL FORMATE.

    Once, there may be no other [HDDs] not connected to the SATA ports.
