Skype says it's incompatible with my computer

Since yesterday, I can't open Skype - the computer says that Skype is not compatible with the computer.  Why?  When it was working fine yesterday?

Skype is a updated version that resolves the problem.

  • Rome 1 incompatible with my computer

    so I want to play in rome total war on my computer its seven windows and was purchased in 2007, but the game came out in 2005, and the game says that it's incompatible with my computer tried everything please help

    I play RTW on W7 64-bit, and after a little violin, it seems to install and run OK.

    There was a recent update of MS which stopped in some versions of the game running, see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-gaming/kb3086255-is-this-a-half-baked-solution-or-am-i/13d4c03e-f04f-40b9-b438-e903eda3cab9 and workaround as of 18-Sep-2015, that worked for me and others. All the details are in the post and article KB of MS which is linked.

    In addition, on W7 64 bit I should not install it in a folder created manually, rather than the default values, and there were a few updates to install in this folder as well. If I let him use the default automatic installation location then the game wouldn't go for me. More details - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-gaming/irome-total-war-will-not-run-in-wincows-7/8f0f5f78-b093-4469-9a9e-f6e958e696e4

    If you can try to uninstall the game and then put it back in place in a specific manually created the folder and then install the patches on this same folder, then see if that runs. You may also need to play with the service mentioned in the first link above. Alternatively, you can try to update your video card drivers to the latest compatible drivers available for your model of PC and specific from PC manufacturers support web site.

    If this does not help, please report it back with all the most relevant data, as any exact error message or the error number that is reported when the game fails, and the details of your PC and operating system.

  • My Lexmark printer stopped working and the error message says "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?).

    When my printer stopped working because of error messages about "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?), I tried to change to 2nd USB port without success. I tried a new cable; that did not help.

    Then I uninstalled and reinstalled my Lexmark printer and changed the error message. Now, the printer does not work because "the USB device is not recognized."

    I tried to update the chips; Use 1 USB port; and using the old cable, all this without success. I checked the connections of the cable to the printer and the PC and turn on the printer and goes off; I'm out of ideas. Any other suggestions?

  • Windows 8 Incompatible with ASUS UX21E-KX004V Ultrabook

    Hello Microsoft!

    I recently updated my ASUS 11 "UX21E-KX004V Ultrabook to Windows 8, thanks to the discount offer available during the period that I bought the machine.

    HOWEVER

    Windows 8 seems to be incompatible with this computer. He installed, started a couple of times without problem, but in the last days here is the problems I had:

    1. When you try to open a video file in windows Explorer, the computer turns off immediately. No blue screen, nothing. This has happened every time.
    2. yesterday, it wouldn't even get into windows at all. Arriving at my login screen, the computer shuts off immediately. Tried to run at least 5 times, same thing.
    3. today, this allows me to access the login screen and login to windows 8, but my WiFi does not work. The button on my keyboard shows that the wireless card is active, but windows refuses to believe. I can't get windows 8 to activate the WiFi at all.

    I expect this type of problem from a beta version, still being tested, but not a copy of the publication. Please note that I had finished all updates to windows. There is no update of the driver available for any of my devices.

    I reinstalled windows 7 on my machine and am not eager to see this garbage again for at least 6 months to you guys give time to fix it.

    Thank you all for your help and advice.

    I must admit that I got tired of closing Win 8 and ongoing fan running problems.  I did the F9 key at startup thing which enabled me to reinstalled Win 7, including all the drivers.

    It did the trick and everything works smoothly in the butter.  I like Win8 but, just my opinion, I think that it is more appropriate for devices of the touchscreen cursor driven by applications.
