  • My Dell Desk Top DVD Player does not work. Whenever I have insert the disc and click here to read... I get the message insert' disc Please "."

    What is the faulty drive, or the software that is missing

    Hello

    What happens if you close all programs and then insert the disc?

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you have problems with CD/DVD drive:

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Hope these helps.

  • Photosmart WSP 5514 stops my Dell Vista desk top of page 68 to go into sleep mode

    My photosmart 5514 is set up wireless.  When I try to put my Dell desk top with Vista Home Premium 68 pending, I get a message that the driver for the WSP device prevents goiing pending and I am encouraged to communicate with the manufacturer which is HP.  I also have a problem that the scan function can only scan to my laptop and not on my desk even if both are on the same network I don't know if the two probs are related.  I tried several times to update or reinstall the drivers from HP website of HP and from the drive.  The issue (s) outstanding. I can bypass the prob of scan but not the prob of sleep.

    Hi DanToz

    I understand that the port is set to WSD, is that correct?

    I have provided a document to print the configuration page to find out the IP address of the printer.

    You have full administrative rights on this computer?

    The HP 5510d is the series so that's fine.

    If you cannot create a new port on the ports tab, then you probably don't have administrator rights on this computer.

    You would have to contact you with the it Department to be able to do then.

    You need TCP/IP port port.

    You turn off the printer to see if the computer goes into sleep mode?

    Step 1. Make sure that the video is not muted in YouTube and Facebook.

  • How to share a printer Canon MP 970 with a WinXP Dell laptop and a Dell of Win7 desk top?

    I recently implemented a Dell PC in Win7 professional desk top which is ethernet connected to Verizon FIOS router home. This configuration has replaced a desktop Dell 7 years under Win XP computer. In an adjacent room, I have a Canon MP970 USB printer connected to an old Dell Laptop for six years under Win XP and connected wireless to the router home. I was unable to configure the latest desktop computer Win7 to share Canon printer. Older Dell/WinXP (replaced) desktop has been configured to share the printer Canon with Dell laptop, WinXP and did successfully...

    In the laptop, I selected control panel > printers and faxes > sharing > drivers additional > environment, but can find no list for Win7. My thought is that the laptop must have the appropriate driver that allows it to recognize the request of Win7 Office to share the Canon MP970 printer. Thank you fo all help and advice from the community can offer.

    GrampyH

    Hi GrampyH,

    If you have a printer connected to your computer, you can share it with anyone on the same network. No matter what type of printer you have, as it is installed on your computer and is directly connected with a USB cable or other type of printer cable. The people from that your choice to share the printer will be able to use it to print, as long as they first locate your computer on the network.

    Printers that are directly connected to a network and not connected to a computer are available to anyone on the same network. These printers must have a network port or wireless connection that allows them to connect directly to the network.

    You can read these articles and check if that helps.

  • my desk top has a virus and I lost total control of my desktop at the top of the page

    ORIGINAL TITLE: I need serious help

    my desk top has a virus and I lost total control of my desktop, when I restart my computer my keyboard won't let me use the F8 key. I bought an adapter PS\2 and still nothing, my mouse unplugged... When I was able to access my profile before he started that go all wonky random letter would appear in my search bar, or if I connected Internet, as soon as google would startup load, it was as if my keyboard was possessed. the google box would be filled with random letters?

    The thing is, it was not even 2 months ago the same thing! I took my turn 'Squadron of the tech' intro and they said that it (the virus) had been removed. The only sites I go to hotmail is to check my messages, I empty my spam unless I'm expecting something once in a blue moon, I'll go on fb... so I don't see how I caught the virus back. When I finished my computer I log out and do not let my internet race. I just want my baby difficulty... I went to the explicit memory, and they said that it would cost me $ 700 to erase and reinstall the window? is it really necessary?
    Oh ago one of my friends wrote the code for my computer? or set up anything in the BIOS thingy? then when the windows recovery screen appears the white bar does not move when I use the two sets of arrows. the only button that works is to remove

    "Squadron of the technology? Do you mean the Geek Squad?

    If Yes, let me point out that, in my opinion (and that of many others of)
    We here) Geek Squad (and any similar big box store) is amongst the
    worst possible sources for the repair of computers, maintenance, tips, etc. In
    the future, if you need help, bring the computer to a smaller local
    store.

    If you're still having problems, I would not at all be surprised if
    they were caused by the Geek Squad. But tell us what virus you had.
    And how did you know you had it? What antivirus do you use,
    and why the anti-virus program does not remove the virus?

    • Your user account settings are corrupt.
    • The core files are damaged.
    • The Explorer.exe file does not load at startup.

  • Image Vista HP Desk Top computer crashes.

    I like 1 million others have a HP image desk top which freezes at least once a day. Can stop only manually switch off operation. I paid for it professionals focus on the machine and have run all kinds of controls. Hardware checks out and don't know any software problems. MEM. withdraws. Reading a hundred or more complaints of the people and demand to help and do not seem to be many solutions. Also, I have a hp with xp on it and never froze. Does anyone take any responsibility and actually address the issue. Or is there a whole bunch of reasons this computer and like those that freeze, being a matter of mutiple problem. It's a huge pain having this computer freezes all the time. It said check the power, they say, check the mem. sticks. Told driver problems, another software conflict, another says cables from the hard drive, another computer running too hot, the other, problems of register, another card viedo problem, another problem of motherboard. Now why all the xp and older computers had this problem run wild as these most recent have. all of the suggestions.

    I have a hp 8core and it would lock up or give me blue screens. at the end of the day, I opened the file and did my house fan 12 inches in the case and it solved the problem. the case of hp, I got one fan and a cooling tower with another; but it is not enough to cool the processor. I bought another one with lots of fans and has the computer placed on the new case. have not had any problems since.

  • Sounds come out of my helmet all the

    Okay, so I recently had a new Inspiron 660 and everything was going so well... until I went on YouTube. No sound came out at all, I quickly realized that I didn't have same speakers hooked up to it (brain PET), so for a quick fix, I went to retrieve my headphones. I plugged them into my computer, and what I was rewarded with? Nothing. So far I have not been able to get any sound out. Nothing appears when I plug in the headphones and the 'Sound' section there's no help whatsoever. I tried several different sets of headphones and headsets. Nothing has worked so far, I tried plugging in a couple speakers another phone to see if I could make it work there and still nothing. Please help, what I extremely annoying and all comments are welcome. Even if you have no idea what you're talking about, but have an idea, share it. Because I really need the help. Thank you!

    I understood the problem for me in any case, that maybe it's not the problem for you. In any case, on the back of my monitor is a headphone jack and it turns, the office tries to use it as a default output for the sound. So, here's where I put my headphones for a sound to come out. To get a sound for the fate of the external speakers connected directly to the audio output jack of computers, you must then unplug the headphones to the audio monitor out taken, to the original output must be disconnected for a new use. Hope this helps and sorry if it's not!

  • Why if I leave my desk top to enter the mode "sleep" I can't get it back on.

    Hello world

    My counter top is an Acer Aspire M5201 64 bit machine I had no problem with all running Windows 7.  I changed to Windows 8 Pro in December and it has worked flawlessly and I was very happy until April.  After several updates Microsoft my machine started to freeze and I have to restart.  However, it would not restart due to no video input.  I've tried several things, change the cable DVI to VGA, unplug the machine and leave for half an hour the tour is played it will return but crashes during the first boot.  If I reboot a second time it lights without problem.  I thought I had managed to solve this problem, but I was put under my computer when I'm away from the desk top.  Today, the phone rang and he entered mode 'sleep' and I couldn't put it back on.  I have consulted many people here in the past about this issue and one solution was to change the parameters of quick start.  It worked but not anymore.  I did different things to my computer to try sorting, but they are all in without success.  I've got rid of Trusteer report on recommendation and dumped loads of temporary files.  I learned that Kaspersky is in conflict with Windows 8 and so on.  Kaspersky has come to me several things that were at the origin of the problems. I have Kaspersky ran for several years and have had no problems with it and I recently renewed my license.  To be honest I really tired performance of my machine as Windows 8 pro has been installed, I ran the following:-

    DISM / online/cleanup-image /checkhealth
    DISM / online/cleanup-image /restorehealth

    How to run the command "SFC/scannow" at the start or in Windows 8 and 8.1

    I have a corrupted file. Cannot repair the military record [l:36 {18}] "Amd64\CNBJ2530.

    Nobody told me how to fix this file only to make an update of Windows, which would mean that I would lose all my Windows applications not that I don't want to do because I have so much of.

    Is there someone out there who is able to help me because I spend so much time trying to resolve these issues, he leads me in the wall?  I had so many problems since Windows 8 Pro installation I wish I had not taken the trouble.  I fear actually turn on my computer.  What was once a reliable machine is becoming a liability.  Thank you

    Hello Julie,

    Thank you for your response.

    You can proceed to method 2 for as much as in the previous post. It will tell what drivers are installed on your computer you open Device Manager.
