Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.

Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.

Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
get new manually if you wish.

  • Windows does not recognize a blank disc in the DVD player.

    When you try to burn a CD and have a blank CD - R into the DVD player, I get 'Windows cannot read the disk in drive D ". I tried other discs and DVD, but it seems that Windows does not recognize a blank disc. I have another DVD drive and the same is true here as well.  I tried to update the drivers and deactivation and reactivation of readers but nothing is done. However, CDs or DVDs with the content are recognized.

    I had the same problem on Windows 7 32-bit (suspect this fix as well under Vista). After trying everything under the Sun entered Services (search for programs and files, type 'Services') and looked "Shell Hardware Detection. Found that it was disabled (not sure how he got that way). Right-click on it to get the properties. Change startup type to "Automatic", press apply then OK. Problem solved without even having to restart!

  • Firefox process starts but window does not open.

    All the all of a sudden when I launch Firefox 11 window does not appear, but the process will start in the Task Manager. Yesterday everything worked fine, but when I came home in the evening Microsoft Security Essentials was not from, it is protection. I got it working by installing it again. Just Firefox does not open the window for me.

    -J' uninstalled Firefox and restarted the system
    -Ran CCleaner and Spybot S & D
    -Manually reset the registry values with regedit.
    -J' deleted all AppData and plugin files.

    To verify that your system is clean, perform the following steps (no official Mozilla tips, just good practices of personal experience)

    Download and install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full scan. http://www.Malwarebytes.org/

    Download and launch TDSSKiller http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363

    Check all Windows updates.

    After doing this, restart your Pc and this time, when you try to start Firefox, hold down the SHIFT key while it starts. This forces Firefox in safe mode. Let's see if that helps.

  • Satellite P300-28th does not start - windows does not load

    I bought Toshiba P300 28th last week. I spent Vista business successfully in Windows XP Professional with provided Toshiba DVD. Update Windows with Windows Update. After 3 days, laptop turns off suddenly, and because Windows does not start, it in fact does not start.

    When I press the power button / stop, it turns on, shows "Toshiba Leading Innovation" logo image option and "2", "press 12...", and it hangs and stops.
    I tried pressing F2 and F12, nothing happened.

    I can not access the boot menu.

    I put the Toshiba Recovery CD, the hard drive does not work. Recovery disk does not start, despite earlier I remember put boot CD/DVD at the forefront in the Boot Options to Boot Menu.

    I checked everything, power cable, took the battery in and replace after 3 hours, tried to turn on the portable power, without battery cable. Did not help.

    Don't know what to do?

    Your help is very appreciated.

    Hello Fiona

    If you are unable to enter the BIOS (F2) at startup settings there must be some serious hardware problem.
    I recommend to contact your local dealer where you bought this laptop and ask for help, or you can contact Toshiba service provider directly.

    What you have tried to do is good but if laptop doesn t allow you to enter parameters of the BIOS something wrong here, and you need professional help.

  • Message viewer window does not appear

    This started happening recently on my father 15 "retina Macbook Pro race El Capitan 10.11.3: when it starts to mail, the main display window does not appear.

    It's there, but invisible: I know because by selecting "Minimize" from the [Windows] menu in mail brings up for a fraction of a second before it zoomed down to the Dock. Once there, you can click the icon in the Dock and it zooms out on the screen, after which things work normally.

    Until you restart the computer, or stop and restart Mail.

    Oddly enough, this problem will not occur when I start the computer in Mode safe. However, I have disabled all the login items and the problem persists with a normal startup.

    I have never seen something like this and would appreciate any advice or suggestions...

    2. Move ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail to the desktop.

  • Satellite A100 PSAA5A Windows does not recognize ethernet controller

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with a PSAA5A-01H00T A100 running Win XP sp2.
    Windows does not recognize an ethernet controller, so the wireless NETWORK card does not work, even if the wired connection is.
    I tried to install the latest WLAN drivers on the support site (two of them), does not. Windows insists that the correct drivers are not installed.

    I suspect a hardware problem and I have the user on an external wireless NETWORK card, but I would appreciate any idea that you guys can provide.

    Thank you.

    Hi mate

    What Ethernet controller is not recognized? WLan or LAN?
    You have a few unknown devices in Device Manager?
    If so, then a critical driver is missing, and so the controller is not recognized correctly.

    You n t know what LAN or Wlan chip you have and what driver is needed?
