try to download the driver WINDRVDIR\pacer.sys

My computer is running very slowly, Firefox, Chrome and IE take ages to start and are very slow to load pages.

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on an HP Pavilion with a Pentium G620 proc and 4 GB of ram

I have Avast Free Antivirus running and

Zone Alarm Free Firewall.

I wonder if I was root kitted out, but I'm not sure.

The story so far.  After updating my DivX program, I started to get a pop-up 'suspicious behaviour' of Zone Alarm.  Whenever it is a program that is

"try to load the WINDRVDIR\pacer.sys driver.

The first time I got the message was a few hours after the release of DivX and it was DivX program that was trying to load this driver.  I denied permission because a few hours have passed since the update.

I was wondering if I had a problem, I ran a virus scan which came up empty.  I planned a boot virus so scan and it came back empty.

I installed Spybot Search and Destroy which found a number of issues, but it does not solve my problem.  Now "try to load the WINDRVDIR\pacer.sys driver" so-called came the Spybot program.

Later, I got the same message but 7Zip program.

I scan the Auslogics Root Kit, no luck

I ran the scan Bitdefender Root Kit, once again nothing.

I defragmented trying to improve performance, but that did not help and I have downloaded and run the program Microsoft Msert nothing helps.

I am at my wits end, I even let load the driver once and my system has suddenly got a bit faster, but I still get the popup with the request.

Google seems to think it's a normal thing, but I had several different programs want to do which is strange to say the least.

Any ideas?

    The Support Pages for the printer are apparently all in a tangle.  I can't, either.  Mutter, bang the mouse on the desktop...

    OK - that found replacing then you can install the full feature software.  The tire site it draws from HP.

    Make sure you take the download for PC and not for the Mac.  The smile.

  • Impossible to download the driver (Deskjet F4580)

    Hello

    I recently bought a new laptop and am trying to install my Deskjet F4580 to use with it. The printer is connected to my network without problem as I have successfully run and print the wireless network test and network configuration pages and my laptop seems to recognize that it is there as it happens in my "devices and printers" in my control panel, however he told me that I need a driver.

    I have the installation CD, but when I use it it fails to install the driver. I put it in, follow the instructions in the wizard, the installation wizard where it is said so "of the control systems, the search for updates, download updates, application updates" then disappears completely and it stops before installation the installation is complete. He shows me a list of things it will do, including installing the driver, but he only puts out the first component before disapperaing. I don't know even why it checks updates until whatever it is has been installed.

    This process is repeated exactly the same way when I try and download the driver on the HP site, and I also tried to download the driver of basic with the same results.

    I don't know what to do as my phone tells me that I need a driver before I can use my printer, but I can't download a no matter how I try. I installed other programs on my laptop so I don't think that's the problem, and I checked that the driver is correct for my operating system (Windows 7 32-bit).

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi hkp206,

    It seems that the installation is having some problems with the updates. Is there a way to disable the updates through the beginning of the installation. Once you get to the part of the facility where he asked to accept the terms, there will be 4 lines of text in blue up, which you will be able to click on. Click on the line that says "the use of Internet connection settings." Select 'No' to all options in this window, then click on 'Ok '. Now, launch the installation and let me know if you still have the same problem.

    The thing you read is if you format the drive using the RAID settings you have selected. You have to look at the bottom of the window where it shows the Format.

  • DeskJet 2540: Cannot download the driver file

    Please can someone help?

    Brian

    Welcome to the community @brianardmore HP

    I came across your post about problems you encounter when you install the printer on your system Windows 10 and wanted to respond to my suggestions.

    I recommend power cycling network devices and a clean boot on your computer and then try to install again.

    1. turn off the printer and the computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press the buttons on the router).

    2. plug the router back in and wait another minute, turn on the printer and the computer.

    3. from the computer, start clean: clean boot instructions

    4. download and install the printer here: printer install file

    5 return to clean boot instructions and allow the start of programs.

    Note: the security program you have on your computer may be detecting the printer as a threat. Try looking through the settings in this program to add the printer to the list 'allow' so that he knows that it is safe.

    You can also try installing the printer using a different method, such as if you are installing wireless, try USB and then convert the USB wireless when you have completed the installation.

    If you have any questions let me know the details. Good luck!

  • Pavilion g4-1100au: cannot download the driver (sp64116.exe)

    Hello, I tried to download a driver for several days, but it stops downloading almost as soon as it starts.

    It is be the sp64116.exe file, but it seems to be a general problem with the download server. When I try with Google Chrome, it stops after about 16 MB (the file is about 350 MB). When I try with Internet Explorer, I get a message saying downloading is interrupted and I went back several times - but it downloads only about 10 MB and then is interrupted again.

    Unfortunately, driver download pages all have some sort of script to download software files. There is no way to enter a URL or use FTP or torrent or something like dropbox to get the file directly.

    Please can you must solve this problem or provide alternative means to download the driver files.

    Another problem with the pages of drivers, is that if you select an OS like Windows 8 and drivers that you need happens to be Windows 7 drivers, then it will not be displayed in the list. Apparently there are several devices to an HP laptop that does not work directly with Windows 8 (or 10?) and you need to get the name of the device (and it is not one easy way to know what devices are built the laptop, if Intel or Qualcomm or Radox or another) and find the specific driver for this particular device file.

    Y at - it another site (other HP sites where the drivers can be downloaded directly or through ftp or torrent clients or something?

    Hello:

    Here is the direct link to the file from the HP FTP site.

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp64001-64500/sp64116.exe

    I could completely download this file using Internet Explorer 11 in a few seconds (I have 100 Mbps internet service).

    @ Evanston only!...

    You see the effects of a hijackware infection! If you had used the computer longer, I might recommend trying to detect & remove infections. But it would probably take a week or two and I'm sure you have better to do with your time right now so I would recommend the following (which shouldn't take any more than two hours of uninterrupted time).

    See...

    Cleaning a compromised system
         http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspx

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

    HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation and formatting the hard drive option" (or "reinstall it Windows 7") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7 article

    NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").

    After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

    4 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
         http://www.Microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspx

    VERY IMPORTANT! -Online free trial Norton will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool again Norton before installing updates AND BEFORE installing your new application antivirus (for example, Avast5 or Microsoft Security Essentials, free).

    Tip: Do not install Spybot again; It's really overkill in Win7 my humble OPINION, especially if you are installing Microsoft Security Essentials.

    If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.

  • Difficulties to download the driver for printer HP laserjet 1020 for laptop Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I bought a new laptop from HP which works under Windows 7 (64-bit). I tried to download the driver for my HP laserjet 1022 printer - the website shows that this printer should work with Windows 7 with the driver available for download from the HP site. When I click to download the driver it starts to download, but then I get the following message "downloading lj1020-HP-pnp-win64 - in .exe was interrupted. I'm trying to resume the download and the same thing happens each and every time.

    Someone at - it solutions? Thank you

    Sarah - I dsl which is at the lower end of DSL speed and I can tell you that I sometimes have problems download from the HP site.  The HP software is quite 'bulky' and/or 'intense' (I have no other way to describe it).  If it gets interrupted it usually leaves.  My guess is that it's your connection mobile broadband is not not a connection permanently at times causing the interruption.  If you have no regular internet type, try to go to a mobile hotspot that is free in a city near you or a store that offers for free (Panera, McDonalds, Starbucks, etc.) and download the file from there.  Make sure your firewall is active and security to prevent unauthorized entry into your computer during download.
