  • 8 Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

    I seem to have a similar problem, except that none of the "fixes" posted doesn't work for me.  I use a PC HP 64 bit of Windows 8

    and my cd/dvd drive and usb cd/dvd drives are not recognized by Windows.  I can 'boot' from the cd/dvd as well as

    I am sure that the bios is ok.  The various "fixes" to the registry have not worked for me.

    Any other ideas?  I really want to avoid a "clean" installation as my HP went from Vista to Windows 7 to Windows 8 and

    There is a whole bunch of things, that I really want to keep.

    Try to remove the GEARAspiWDM entry.

    To remove the GEARAspiWDM entry double-click UpperFilters and, under value data, delete GEARAspiWDM > OK

    Create a system restore point beforehand and restart the computer after.

    However, if you have an application that uses the GEARAspiWDM, like iTunes, just install the latest version of hardware drivers (4.020.5) and that no changes to the registry:

  • Is there a way to save the registry?

    I had a hard drive crash, the technology was able to recover all my files, but had to use a new disk to start. The old drive is now a slave but who no longer starts. Could not save my programs, because the new registry is not correct. Is there a way to save a registry and re install. Since all my files could be saved, I think there will be a way of not having to reinstall all my programs again. Some are older and after moving several times, I don't know even where to find the original programs to reinstall them, but I would use the the one I had. Also can I do a full backup of the entire system on an external drive that could be used to restore my computer to a State before the hard disk crash? (including the registry, of coarse)

    You can try cloning the old hard drive to a new one and then try to fix the boot errors. However, if there are other problems with the old hard drive, it may not work.

    But just passing the registry would not work. It is specific enough for the installation. You must move files much more (which would make a clone - it would be a 1:1 copy of your old disk).
    If the drive is not too badly damaged, a clone would probably work for to revert you to a State before the accident. However, it is not for the faint-hearted. You need a spare drive to clone and then to repair the operating system to start correctly as well as other errors that appear along the way.

  • Any way of keys in registry list in order of the date of change/addition?

    I'm having a problem with a program I installed. I can't find the registry key for the program manually. Is it possible to find registry keys by update? or get their update list?

    Sorry, but this cannot be done.  There are 3rd party programs that will do it, but I'm not aware of anything (but you can search www.download.com,www.tucows.com, Bing and Google).  In fact, in the views of the registry, I just noted that it does not yet reveal the date something has been added or changed.  I'm not even sure that it retains this information (which would make a search on the basis of impossible).

    You just need to find and capture the right information (the name of the program, the name of the main executable file and likely other options) to see if you can find what you are looking for.  You could also contact the manufacturer of the program and see if they can tell you where to find this information.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    If you had made any changes in the registry without taking the backup copy of the registry, then there could be chances that your computer can find themselves in no situation to start and finally end up in the reinstallation of the operating system; This is why it is recommended to take a backup changed in the register of representation.

    Before editing a registry key or subkey, we recommend that you export, or make a backup copy of the key or the subkey. You can save the backup copy to a location that you specify, for example, a folder on your hard drive or a removable storage device. If you make changes that you want to cancel, you can import the backup copy.

  • How can I change the registry values with a common search for the string and replace the function where I don't do all manually?

    Due to problems of space with my installation of XP Pro, (operating system has been installed on a 4 GB partition and I did have a copy of the OS to do a new installation) I am trying to move a number of files on a mounted drive.

    It is a way to search an entire record of [SPECIFY FOLDER] "C:\Program Files\" instances and replace each with "C:\Program Files\Overflow\ [SPECIFY FOLDER]" as a common discovery replace function?

    Also, I'll have to move several "Common Files" files in the mounted folder 'Overflow '. The method to make learning one should help me to do both. Manually, it will take most of thousand years that all the files in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components
    the files seem to have a key value have changed.

    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled some programs at the desired location, but many still use the "Common files" folder despite my having already changed the default installation directory path in the registry. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    One way:

    1. Start Regedit (start-> Run-> 'Regedit')
    2. Select the branch of the registry, or you are interested in changing.
    3. The export of this branch of the registry (file-> export) in a ".reg" file
    4. Use a programming editor (for example, the freeware Notepad ++) and use the "Find and replace" function to make the changes you want.  Save the modified file.
    5. After making the changes, double-click the .reg file to fold changes in your registry.

    As always, keep a backup of your original registry in case things get really bad and know how to do to restore this backup your machine should not be able to start.

  • Failed to save the registry change

    I have a Windows XP (SP3) machine in a domain environment.  The computer is correctly configured in the domain environment (assuming that, because I can log in as a domain administrator and all users get the startup script ran which maps some readers for them).

    I'm trying to change the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate

    In particular - the key: WUServer

    I try to grab the WSUS server name it (i.e. http://main) (main is the name of the domain controller that is running WSUS).  When I entered the value and the output of the register - then go back into the registry, the key is still a Virgin.  I enter the server wsus again, exit, go back-it's empty.  It just won't save.

    I checked the permissions on the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate and 'authenticated users' was a total control.  Also, I gave myself so full control (domain\administrator).  Then, I gave "everyone" full control.  Just editing won't stay/save.

    What could be going on here?  It is the only computer in the company to behave like that.

    Thanks in advance for your help.
