Scanner HP Scanjet 4200C: cannot upgrade Windows XP to Vista

After the migration from Windows XP to Windows Vista I can no longer operate my scanner HP Scanjet 4200 C. I installed the original series of scanner HP 4200C software and plugged the scanner via the USB interface. The software starts up, but cannot find the scanner. After reviewing the HP web page I discovered that HP does not provide an upgrade to Vista; the last update they provide is for XP and not Vista-compatible. Everyone had the same problem and found a solution?

HP has written drivers for their products, not Microsoft.

If HP has said that there are no Vista drivers for your printer model, it has none.

If it will not work with XP drivers on the link above:

You will need to consider buying a Vista Compatible Scanner.

See you soon.

  • Cannot upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7

    I want to upgrade to Windows 7 but my computer dosent want to upgrade window xp sp1i have a hp pavilion a510nwhat should I do?

    This isn't your fault. Microsoft has dropped the ball on this one.

    If you have JUST performed a CLEAN INSTALL of XP and you are at the SP1 level, you can do the following (somewhat tedious):
    Preliminary work:

    Download the SP3 installation files (SP2 is not necessary if you already have SP1 or SP1a!), IE8 and Microsoft Security Essentials, which is an effective antivirus/antimalware program. I prefer to keep these (and other useful files) on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links to all the installation of three files:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

    (You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials (for MMS)

    1. physically disconnect from the Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices!

    2. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:

    Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates

    Select "Turn off automatic updates" and click OK.

    3. install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

    4. switch to IE8. Restart TWICE. (Note: it is important to let IE at the level before the upgrade to SP3 IE6.) After you are in SP3, then you can switch IE6 to IE8).

    5 install MSE.

    (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

    6. make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):

    Start | Control Panel | Security Center

    (Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet. Update Antivirus program.)

    7. visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.

    8. reactivate the automatic updates.

    In case you're not SP1 and SP1a level (effectively SP0), download the following installation to SP2 at the same time, you do your preliminary work leading up to:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=28

    Of course, you install it before installing SP3.

  • Cannot upgrade Windows 8 on Windows 7 PC HP Pavilion g6-2270dx

    I have a problem, I just downgrade my hp pavilion windows7 .because when I format my hp (windows8) cannot format because some files are missing something like that. I need to format because I have a virus, my files on my readers always shortened flash, but when I search on google which was a menghapus virus. so. That's why I downgrade the windows8 in windows7 on hp Pavilion. so, I install the windows 7 (BOOTMode). When I go to hp site, looking for an installer for my mobile, theres no available software/installer for windows 7. It's only for windows 8 and windows 8.1 I need to make windows 8 again to my laptop works well, 2 of my usb ports do not work. need help please )

    It seems that if you do not have a recovery media. You can order the HP through this web document recovery media. If you have retrieve media, now would be a good time to use it to find your laptop in its delivered State. After recovery buy a good antivuirus such as ESET or Norton Internet protection solution in order to avoid the same problem of past that has brought here.

    The reason that two of your ports are not is likely to be because the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed controller software must be reinstalled. There is no driver software available to do this for Windows 7 on HP support web portal.

  • Cannot upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium to professional

    I just bought a Satellite L650-1MC and a nice little machine it's too! Tracks of Home Premium 64-bit. I must have professional because I use this machine for work and the first three elements of the software tried to install... easy to store. So far, on XP Pro 32-bit so I want virtual XP on my computer = must have 7 Pro.

    So bought a key of the Microsoft UK (£120!) store and tried to upgrade using Windows Anytime Upgrade (was provided by the text of the presentation it would be... on child's play in 10 minutes!) ... but I can't get anywhere I get the following message... «Enter a different upgrade key - upgrade key you have entered is for an edition of Windows that does not work with Windows Anytime Upgrade...» "to intervene here, then why the hell Microsoft sell me! " ... Enter a different upgrade key".

    I know that I am naïve enough, but would be grateful for any help!

    Thank you very much

    Lindsay

    Well, I'm embarrassed to admit I rather "jumped the gun" on this one... having written and published to my request, I thought I'd see if this would help... it did! Turns out that I am now successfully upgraded to Pro.

    Sorry if I wasted all the time and... If you are having a similar problem... I recommend that go you for a reboot before panicking... like me!

    Honestly, it is useless... In late summer, Windows 7 will be eligible for a free upgrade of Windows 10 and Windows 8.1 will be eligible for a free upgrade for Windows 10. If you buy Windows 8.1 now, you pay full price for an operating system you will use only for a couple of months.

    Spend money to upgrade your hardware, for example the RAM and possibly install a SSD.

    This will make the system runs a lot better when you upgrade to Windows 10. What is the brand and model of your system?

  • Cannot upgrade Windows Vista Ultimate Edition after the HD upgrade

    I have an ASUS computer which is about five years old and works fine. It runs only Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit SP1.
    The HD has been giving signs which is failing. I bought a new HD and copied the old HD to the biggest news. Everything seems to work fine until I tried to run Windows Update. It does not allow me to update and gives the 8024A 000 error code every time I try to run it. I called ASUS for help and they said
    to contact me Microsoft.

    Thank you

    Harold

    I found the solution to this problem. I went to another Windows help forum. It is to reset the Windows Update program. I tried the one here on the Microsoft site, and it did not work. But I tried this one http://wind8apps.com/windows-update-error-code-8024a000/ and the fist solution worked like a charm. He fixed the update and install issues with Powershell 2.0. After that and a certain number of updates, it's updated, Windows Update will update to the latest version. After this release he went and found many updates, I had to install. So be patient, you're in for a little wait.

  • Upgrade Windows XP to Vista to Windows 7

    , I have windows XP Professional version 5.1 installed on my computer. When I bought the computer, I had the opportunity to go back to XP instead of Vista, I got. they gave me a copy of a reinstallation of Windows Vista Business 32 Bit disc, that I have. On the drive, he said: it is already installed on the computer (although I've used XP)

    I want to upgrade to Windows 7, but there is no upgrade option; clean install only. So I was wondering if I could spend XP > Vista > Windows7.
