Problems after installing drivers.

For a long time, I had a same problem installing drivers.  I finally got out it was because I have my program files all together for my E drive (my C drive is a smaller SSD).  I made the necessary changes to my system to allow the drivers to be installed on the C drive.  After installation I copied the entire tree on my E drive and changed my system to install on E.

Since that every time I try to print I am told that the printer is offline.  I can't open the scanner either.  Windows find the printer successfully, and I'm able to do things like check my ink level.  I can not print correctly on other computers on my network so I know the printer is fine.

The printer in question is a Photosmart HP 6510, computers are all windows 7 and connections are all wireless.

I am sure that the problem is the way I have all my files on my E drive program and not my C drive at 90%.  The ideal solution would be for the HP Installer to assume not only that I want things on C, but I don't see that changing at any time soon.  Anyone with advice on how it works?

Hello JPadilla,

I set up a laboratory and recreated the error code that you receive when you try to change the drive in which the software is installed to. I'm able to successfully download, extract and install the HP software on my E: drive by following the steps below:

1. Please make sure that there is no HP printing software installed on your C: drive, even if it's just the basic print drivers go ahead and remove them.

2. clear your temp folder on the C: drive: click on your Start Menu in the search box type %temp% and delete the files.

3. Please make sure you back up your registry before proceeding to #4.

4. has created a folder on your D: drive and name it 'Test'.

5. click on your Start Menu and search for "regedit", once you are in the follow-up record this way:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows > current Version

6. now that you are in the registry, I need you to right click on the following files and select Edit and change your:

ProgramFilesDir to D:\Test

ProgramFilesDir (x 86) to D:Test (x 86)

ProgramFilesPath to Test %

ProgramW6432Dir to D:\Test

7. now, we can go ahead and download the drivers and full software features. Once you have clicked on the download, select Save as using the drop-down arrow and select computer and select your E: drive, click Open, and then save. Once downloaded go ahead and select RUN.

You should now be able to install on your E: drive, as stated previously I managed to clear the error and changing the drive in which the software was the installation by following the directions above.

Please keep me updated and I would like to know if it is a resolution that is successful for you or if you need more help, I'd be happy to help you.

Thank you very much

  • Boot problems after installing Vista SP2 (KB948465)

    I installed SP2 via update.  During the update process there was a power failure.  After that (I don't remember if it's immediately after, or if a few days elapsed) I had problems with the startup.  Initially, seemed the Startup Repair to fix the problem, but not permanently, and the Startup Repair had to be used repeatedly just to start.

    After a few times of what is happening, Startup Repair did not turn, and the PC wouldn't start.  After about 5 attempts using the decision-making power, sometimes choose the Startup Repair, sometimes choose to load windows normally, he did start.
    I immediately did a system restore to return my PC before SP2 was installed.

    After the restoration of versions prior to SP2, Windows Update showed that the SP2 update failed.  It was on 9 November.  As I need my computer, I didn't reinstall SP2 until I had finished this work.

    As I thought that the problem is probably caused by the power outage, on 10 September, I reinstalled SP2.  Windows Update show no SP2 as an available update, then I downloaded and installed the standalone update.

    Between the 10th and today, 14, Windows Update has installed more than updated.

    Today, I was unable to start for the first time since the reinstall SP2 and Startup Repair has allowed me to open a session.
    I tried to uninstall SP2 via update.  The first part of it seemed to work, but when it came to reboot, the PC stopped at the end power to the bottom of the procedure.  I used the power switch to turn the PC back on.  After startup, the PC told me that deletion failed.

    Then I tried the system restore.  Unfortunately, the first available restore point was post - SP2 installation.  I restored it for the point that is as close as I could.  I tried to uninstall SP2 again through Windows Update.  This time, I receive a generic error message immediately (less than a second) - it does not attempt to go through the configuration - restart the procedure.

    I haven't restarted my PC since then.  Most updates have been downloaded automatically, and the PC tells me that a restart is required.  I'm a little worried that I will end up with a completely insensitive PC.

    I use an Acer Aspire X 3200 with Vista home premium pre-installed.  I don't have a Vista disc.

  • Problems after installing KB978338 on Windows Vista SP2

    I met a problem after installing KB978338. The update installs without error or problem, but the system is extremely inadmissible after the reboot. The "\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop is not accessible" error, and the system is practically unusable. Normally opens the Task Manager and system seems inactive, but you try to start a new application from the Task Manager gave an error "hose is not valid.

    System is Vista Home Premium SP2 installed without any obvious problems before the update. Start the system restore and go back to immediately before the update of the results in the system back to normal functionality and responsiveness.

    I've never seen or either of these mistakes before and my research has not yet been able to find something similar, so I am at a loss to start this kind of problem with an update of troubleshooting.

    Please tell us how can I still troubleshoot or solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance.

    According to your assignment, it seems that you need a driver and you can get all the drivers here:

    In regards to the FN keys you have Toshiba Value added Package, and Flash Cards Support utility. Everything can be downloaded from the official page of Toshiba.

    Thank you

    It seems that you have a damaged file somewhere in your installation.  You will need to go into the control panel and select the option to repair the installation.  You will need to run the repair twice due to a known problem.  After that, you need to reinstall the NI_Daqmx 9.4.

  • HP Officejet 7612: analysis of problems after installing Windows 10

    After installing Windows (prior to Windows Vista) 10, scan documents with my HP Officejet 7612 became a hell of a job.

    Printing is no problem.

    With Webscan, I can only scan and save 1 page at a time, I can not scan several pages of the document 1 more.

    I downloaded "Extended Scan" but when I try to use this app, it says "year error occurred while scanning" without more information.

    With "HP Scan and capture" I can't scan the size of A3 paper full of documents and there seems to be no possibility to change the size of a3 paper. Maximum size is 'legal letter '.

    Same problem with "Windows Fax and scan."

    Are there other ways to recover the possibilities of full scan from my HP Officejet 7612?

    Hello
