Service Windows 7 Plug n Play stuck on "start".

Hi all

Recently computer of my grandfather acted strangely, so he asked me to take a look inside. After that almost 15 hours of work, I've come to a problem I can't find the answer to.

Essentially the Plug-and-Play service does not completely start. Try to start or stop the command prompt with 'NET start PlugPlay' or 'NET stop PlugPlay' gives error
"The service is starting or stopping. Please try again later. »
I tried to reinstall the service, reconstruction of parts of the registry, the windows repair disk, nothing seems to fix anything. It may be useful to mention that I am positive he is free of malware after it scans with multiple antivirus programs (McAfee, avast!, SuperANTISpyware, Malwarebytes), and that I already had to fix the engine service of basic filtering and firewall and defender of widows services.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I spent a few hours trying to find an answer anywhere on the internet and so far I have found nothing that works.

His computer runs Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 x 64.

Thank you!

Taiexali,

At this point, I would suggest a reinstall of Windows 7.

Copy/backup the data first

Reinstall Windows 7 from either the recovery Partition or the manufacturer of the PC recovery discs.

Reinstall the applications

Restore data

  • Try to load windows on the new drive, stuck at 'starting windows' screen

    So I'm actually down ranking of windows 8 pro to windows 7 pro two 64. I was finally able to get the comp not recongize just load the USB. My problem is that when it does not start, I'm stuck at 'Starting windows' screen I was wondering, perhaps, that I need to format a patition first? It's a new Lenovo warranty hard drive. (Kind of funny how to send CD's for a laptop that doesn't have a cd player only) I looked in the formatting of a usb key, have had some difficulty in finding a reliable way... Thank you

    Hi davefromsb,

    Windows 8 computers have a bios "UEFI" and so will come with "Secure Boot" as well as "UEFI" only start enabled. Disable secure boot if you do not have and choose start to the "legacy" methods The problem is most likely that the image of Windows 7 which has been engraved on the USB key was burned using an instead of a TPG one MBR partition scheme. I hope this helps.

  • Windows 7 will not go beyond screen "starting Windows."

    I have a Dell Inspiron N5110, who used to have Windows 7 Home Basic Edition. Since the upgrade of Windows 10 entered, I updated the BIOS and installed Windows 10.

  • HARD drive external, Toshiba PX1395E, not plug and play in Windows XP

    Hi all

    Thanks for reading this.

    Just bought a number of HDD 2.0 USB 750 GB external PX1395E.
    I want to use to back up files from my old computer to my new computer.
    In fact, my old pc recognizes the HARD drive (plug-and-play) and I already copied the required data.

    BUT: my new computer, with Windows XP Professional, Service pack 3. Does NOT recognize the HARD drive.
    I used several (versions 1.1 and 2.0) USB ports and everything is connected to the way that it should.
    Windows tells me that I have plugged 'something', but is unable to recognize what it is and I can't use the material.

    I think I need a driver to make this work. Site Web de Toshiba does not provide this particular driver (I checked, but it cannot find).

    Is there anyone with a solution?

    Thanks in advance.

    Do you see the HARD drive in the disk management?
    Control Panel-administrative tools-online-online disk management computer management online

    Another way is that reinstall you the chipset driver. Look at the Toshiba site to download and choose the right one.

    Look for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager.

    Let me know, what you're doing.

  • What is the reliability of Plug and Play in Windows 7?

    What is the reliability of Plug and Play in Windows 7? I mean he came in windows in Windows 98. Sometimes, when you plug a USB device, you may need a set of 60 seconds to restart your computer. Our company become lazy 60 seconds is too long to wait to use a USB device? It might be a good improvement in the next generation of Windows operating systems, but is it reliable, Plug and Play in Windows 7? Any ideas?

    There is a finite amount of drivers that can be incorporated into Windows such as Windows recognizes the device. In addition, device manufacturers must submit the drivers to Microsoft to incorporate into Windows at construction time. Out of the box Plug and Play does not work for all possible configurations of hardware.

    Windows 7 Service pack 1 is released in 2010, the last chance for drivers to be incorporated into the build. Devices with their own hardware ID, which were released after the construction cannot be identified automatically and must, by definition, provide the required drivers for the start install but after that, they should recognize the device automatically. Although the USB 3 specification has been ratified by little around the time of the release of Windows 7 more material supporting this specification came out that shortly after. Windows 7 does not natively support USB 3.

    Windows 7 of Plug-and-Play support works very well, but depends on the hardware manufacturer provides drivers reliable and other support files when it comes to new hardware. Your problem is not with Windows, but your reception units. Windows 7 is now disabled standard support.

  • Windows XP SP3 USB errors / unknown devices with Plug and Play

    I have problems with USB flash drives and other plug-and-play devices detected by windows. After taking all possible measures to correct this problem (e.g. windows update, chip / update of the bios, update driver, driver and media ultilites reinstall, uninstall and allow windows update after restarting, removal of hidden devices and even remote tech support from Dell) whenever I connect a flash drive or use all plug-and-play devices it is detected as an unknown device and I can not put updated pilot any port I use. Hardware problems were excluded dute to recognition of the device and USB keyboard and USB mouse are functioning properly. Also these same plug-and-play devices worked well on other items of work. After Googling my eyeballs, I gave up and need help please. The only thing I can do now is to reinstall the operating system that really, really, I don't want to do.

    UPDATE *.

    Dell has replaced the motherboard and the problem was solved. Thanks to all here who offered advice and patience.
  • Windows XP 32 bit ceased to recognize plug and play devices.

    Recently, I had a virus and had to reinstall windows. After installation, I've updated all the drivers and Windows updates. My mouse, keyboard, monitor, and wireless adapter to work correctly. After about 3 weeks, I went to install my printer. I installed the hardware, but it could not connect to the printer. I followed the instructions of the manufacturer again and again but it never connects. His grateful sound because when I turn on the printer or offshore, I hear 'bing', but it doesn't connect. I used the "New hardware found" Wizard with the disc in the drive and it looks right and research, he never does the program on the disk. I tried to use the camera to Windows and the scanner Wizard with no luck.
    After that I gave up, I tried to use my camera, that has worked well until I reinstalled it and it happens "New hardware found" and the "new hardware detected" appears, but it does not recognize the CD, just look and watch for hours. I got fed up and finally bought a "plug and play" card reader SD and the bubble appears in the toolbar "new hardware found", but then the "new hardware found" stands and asks a disc! Its a PLUG and PLAY! There is no disc! The material is on the device! It's not my USB ports because he DOES not see something trendy and I checked Device Manager and he said his work without no problems found, but it does not connect to it. Does anyone have any info on what this might be? ANY help with this is greatly appreciated! Thank you

    Hi pressure,

    Peripheral Plug n Play need driver for the operation.

    PnP means that you do not have to restart the computer to install something.

    I suggest to update the drivers for the chipset of your motherboard and see if a firmware update is available for your BIOS.

    Hello Kirk,

    I'm not sure what you mean by "manually installed", but you need a print driver for the printer recognized by Windows. Go to this page to download the driver you need for whatever version of Windows you have: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?pnameOID=14497&locale=en_US&taskId=135&prodSeriesId=25522&prodTypeId=18972&lang=en&cc=us .

    Once you have downloaded the right print driver, I let the computer do the installation.  NOTE: you may need to completely uninstall what you've done "manually" so that the correct driver is working correctly. See the HP Web site for more information (I'd do it, but I do not know what operating system you have and its depth of Bit (32 or 64)).

    Post here if you need further instructions or assistance (be sure to include your OS and Bit depth). Let me know how you fare.
