  • ENVY 15-AH151sa laptop: Guard for lack of HP Scan of my PC (to check the drivers)

    I had to download a driver this morning. I was able to pick the one I wanted and it worked. As I was on the help screen, I thought I would check if any other drivers needed to be updated.

    I get this:

    Is there a problem with this process? Should I please?

    New Envy 15-AH151sa

    Taffy, I got what you ask.

    Want to see what other drivers need to be updated. You do not mention that one that you have already installed but.

    You have installed the HP Scan to see if your drivers are all up to date, but the analysis fails every time.

    Well, join the club. She does it for me too.

    The driver HP scanner is bug sometimes and does not always work correctly.

    It recognizes some of my products, like the bad model and fails.

    You can check the drivers manually but... as the saying goes, ""If it isn't broken, don't fix it".

    If your new windows 10 laptop is not working properly, won't change anything.

    You did that you need to update, so that a specific matter that fixed you. You're good to go.

    This applies in particular to the Bios. Do not update that unless you really have a problem.

    Windows 10 will automatically update as needed in most of the other pilots.

    Maybe it's not the opinion that you were missing, but I hope that it will offer some relief to determine if you need to update everything.

  • Back to Windows 7. Where to find the drivers

    I just bought a new laptop for my wife. I guess that, more correctly, she had for a few months now. His old laptop died and she thought she could live with Win8. She could not. She now wants windows 7 on his laptop. If she's not happy, nobody's happy and she's not happy. HP itself isn't helping their stand seems to be that the isOS of material too advanced for decent OS w. I believe that BS. There must be a way to get the drivers to get the abomination his system off. I really need help. She is a teacher and all the documents of her classroom and on-line documents on his laptop computer. I'm getting earfuls of tales of how many extra clicks it takes to do anything. I had hoped his laptop and mine would be the last two long enough for MS to come to their senses and give us a usable OS, but that ship has sailed. Save my sanity and my marriage. Help me to find drivers.

    Windows 8 could be a success if MS listened to comments during the development phase.

    No one I know wanted to get rid of the W7-type interface.

    Very well if they wanted to have the new interface of tile, so there was an option to check a box and let W8 display and behave like W7, and those with tablet PC or touch screen computers laptops/computers office could use the tiles, etc.

    I find heavy W8 going backward to find stuff.  Anyway, we can go on and on this subject and it will not change Microsoft's mind.

    Here are links to the drivers you need.  Please make your set of W8 recovery disks or install W7 on another hard drive.  The recovery partition probably does not work after installing W7.

    You will need to go into the BIOS and enable the legacy mode and disable secure startup (if legacy mode don't automatically disable secure boot).

    After that you get installed W7.

    First install the AMD chipset driver and restart. First listed file is what you need.

    http://support.AMD.com/us/gpudownload/Windows/pages/raid_windows.aspx#2

    Then all the W7 x 64 drivers of this model should also work on your.

    USE NOT ALL BIOS FILES

  • Message came up with, "Windows has detected another computer with the same IP address on this netework."

    A message came that said, Windows detected another computer with the same IP address. "... or similar message to one, that could just be the functioning of the laptop for the wireless?

    MurrayJoe:

    > Mean someone has or may have access to my PC or laptop?

    You mentioned a wireless laptop. Do you get this message at home (when your laptop is in communication with your own wireless router), or that you get this message when in a public hotspot?

    If at home, then I would be not too concerned (what security options enabled in your home router?).

    If you get the message while using a public access point, this does not necessarily your computer has been hacked... but it is a warning that you should not ignore. In general, I would not go to any site that has my financial data, or any other sensitive data, a public hotspot. There are too many ways that a public hotspot may be compromised.

    Your original post said that "a message came that said, Windows detected another computer with the same IP address.

    There are several reasons this could happen... some innocent people and some not so innocent.

    If your network is configured for the most common way, then your router uses a feature called Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). You can read about DHCP here...

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration_Protocol

    Basically, when a device on your home network needs an IP address, he asks your router and your router assigns an IP address... technically, "rents" the router address for a given period (one day). Once this period has elapsed, the device must 'renew lease'.

    DHCP stops you from the hassle of having to assign a static IP address to each device on your network and then don't forget to retrieve that meet if/when a device are removed from your network.

    Sometimes the process DHCP can be confused and assign the same address on multiple devices. If/when this happens, communication between devices on your home network may be confused. Windows is smart enough to detect that another device on your home network has the same address as the computer where Windows is currently running..., but Windows can not solve the problem.

    You can determine the IP address of the computer that is running Windows (and posted the message you saw)... by entering "ipconfig" (without the quotation marks) at a command line prompt. Then you can check the IP addresses of all devices on your network until you find the other devices with the same IP address. Then you could say either every device to get a new IP address of the router (or restart the device). Alternatively, you can try just stating the computer that is running Windows to get a new IP address (by first entering "ipconfig/release" then "ipconfig / renew" in the command-line invite him... all orders without the quotes).

    But since you said that you are not very tech savvy, my first suggestion was the easiest... just shut everything in your network, and then restart one at a time by starting with your ISP device, router, and other devices. If the problem persists after that, then more troubleshooting (as described in the previous paragraph) would be necessary.

    I hope this helps to clarify the issue for you. If you have any questions, please post them and I'll try to answer.

  • Each new browser window has two tabs (one is the sign more) then how we close a window with a single page in without warning multi-onglet?

    Firefox 38 changed the behavior of the tab for me so that each window with two tabs open. The second tab is the 'plus' sign for the creation of new tabs. This means that when the window is closed, the content disappears, but the window to grab and must be closed by hand.

    I tried the "Hide Tab Bar with a tab" extension, but it does nothing. My additional windows are always open with the tab bar (which they don't have in previous versions) and two tabs are there.

    I "warn me if I try to close multiple tabs" together. I don't know if that's the problem. If this is the case, I don't want to give it up because it's useful. When I have several tabs. But a window that has one thing that he really needs to behave like a window that has one thing in it.

    I crossed by disabling the extensions, and the extension of ImageTweak seems to have been the culprit. It was apparently works well with the previous version, 38 he screwed up. Well, not an extension is critical.

    On this path, it is not easy to say anything. Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then restart the device. The unit should be recognized and installed correctly.

  • The desktop icons and taskbar disappear when windows has finished starting - any of the usual things help

    I have a Windows XP Home Edition with a breath main card computer.  Replaced the Board, PS and other items.  Then re-activated windows and everything was fine.  Until the last moment, I rebooted after activating it.  I have the problem that I have seen posted in a bit.  When Windows has finished initializing all the desktop icons and task bar etc. disappear.  Nothing works.

    I can bring up the Task Manager and manually run programs, etc.

    Believe me when I say I spent reviewing EACH reference to this problem... Yes 5 days and counting... Tried them all.

    I also tried a repair of windows in place which ends without any problem (twice)... but still no icons or taskbar.  I also ran several controls of virus, including one for the virus, which is usually the cause of this problem.  (fsnimda3.exe), I tried all the ideas in another thread (page 9) and many other institutions.  Before I did the reconstruction of the material I've cloned the original hard drive and have used the disc cloned juggling his original for the back.  Even tried to reinstall the old disk and do a comparison of sector by sector, in the case where my cloning process missed something.  In the 30 years I've been in the computer business I have never had a re - format a hard drive to solve a problem.  BUT I think it will break my record.

    I'm doing this as a favor for a friend.  But at this point our friendship is really put to the test

  • The Windows XP Explorer crash when checking the USB SD OEM-builtin card reader properties

    Hello, people.

    It's my only known PC malfunction, and initially, it worked without problem. The question began at a time not very long before a recent update failure. The problem is related to the card reader SD OEM-builtin of the Pavilion. Windows XP is unable to connect to this player when my 4 GB SDHC card is slipped into the SD card reader, an error box quote as 'due to an error IO peripheral."  and somehow this blocks / crashes Windows explore (IE no.not) with the 4 GB card in drive F:-SD reader.  But Windows and the reader work very well when my 32 MB SDHC card reading. Both the 4 GB and 32 MB cards work fine in my Canon Power Shot and I can download the contents of the card of 4 GB (JPEG format) via a mini-USB cable for the camera as always, but burning the battery juice in the batteries in the camera. I'd rather take the camera SDHC card and empty its JPEG files in the SD drive. I don't think that it is able, barely used player until three or four months ago. I'll also post this question to the Canon forum and maybe HP forum, but I would like to have some ideas as well on the side of Windows.

    It occurs to me, I don't know how many contacts on the card is active in dealing with the 32 MB. I expect that the 4 GB card should use almost all of the pins; I was wondering if a unused pin in size of 32 MB can be failed do contact and this could corrupt the ease of use of the 4 GB card.

    FYI - my system is HP Pavilion a1020n, five years old. It includes the processor Intel P4 CPU, has 130 GB free on the system partition, and has been upgraded from two years to 2 GB RAM DDR2 PC2 - 4200. OS is Win XP Professional x 86 SP3 with .net all Frameworks 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4 customer and extended 4, IE 8.00.6001.18702, most Silverlight 4.0.50917.0 to patched. All the .NET Frameworks are patched, except that the last .NET two patches for the version 2.0 and 3.5, KB2418241 and KB2416473, both failed several trying to install, and I'm looking for help with that in a posted question, but if you think of these malf are linked, please let me know.

    Any suggestions on Win Explorer and the card 4 GB SDHC, anybody?
