Vista does not recognize my camera even if I hear 'bong' when I plug?

I tried to download pictures from my Nikon D5000.  I plug it in, turn it on, hear the "bong" that windows knows I connected a new device and then nothing.  I try to download from my photo software but my camera is not listed as a device to transfer, I go to my computer and try to find the camera - not here.  I followed all of the directions, I saw on this site - I have uninstalled all the USB drivers and reinstalled ran Windows Update and installed all available updates, contacted Nikon but their software doesn't recognize it, reinstalled the driver of Nikon, but Windows says that it was already there.  The only thing I couldn't do was run the program Microsoft Fix It - I received a (non-specific) error just says there is an error and try again later.  ??  Is there anything else I can try?  I am running Windows Vista Home Basic Service Pack 1.  Thank you!

Hello

Try the following steps.
Step 1:
I suggest you to uninstall the Nikon D5000 driver from Device Manager.
(a) click Start type Device Manager.
(b) locate and expand imaging devices.
(c) locate and right click on the device.
(d) click on uninstall.
(e) restart the computer.
Step 2:
Download the latest driver on the manufacturer's site, keep the computer in a State of startup boot, install the driver on your computer and check the status of the issue.

Note: When you have finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset your computer to normal startup.
Step 3: I would also suggest you to update the drivers from the chipset of the motherboard manufacturer.
 
Step 4: update the update of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 update for Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and check if the problem persists.
 
Hope this information helps.

    Make sure that Windows is updated appropriately that there have been several USB updates.

    1 check that the driver letters for them, for a player, if the drive of the default drive letter is changed, what is happening.
    Mine was h: I added a device that took H: and the player stopped. So I put it back to H: and the other
    device to J: and everything worked again. If necessary start - type in the area of research-> disk management find top
    -Right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

    Don't forget to remember the MP3 must be set to the PSG to sync with WMP, and meteorological service of Canada to copy and delete files
    and update the firmware.

    If no joy follow these steps:

    You may need a powered hub. (all the USB ports on your computer are not powered, often only 2)

    Try these:

    Make a Restore Point

    Control Panel - Device Manager - click in the empty area - VIEW - show hidden devices

    Here, your devices are the MP3 player.

    Now look everywhere EXCEPT the USB controllers for your devices (cannot be found) and if you find
    It RIGHT CLICK and UNINSTALL all.

    now go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers in the category, but the category itself.

    APPLY/OK

    RESET

    This refresh battery USB and hopefully it will allow the unit to install. (You may need a powered hub)

    Windows XP Movie Maker does not recognize my camera Canon HF R10.  Canon is also not listed as a brand for the digital display when I connect the device to the computer.

    =========================================
    Movie Maker has been designed to download from mini-DV cameras
    connected with FireWire... (they record at small cassettes... not
    flash drives)

    The best would be to download the video files in a folder on your
    hard drive... convert the WMV movie format and then import
    in Movie Maker.

    If you connect the camera via a cable USB and go to... My computer...
    It should be recognized as a drive. If it's... you can download it from
    there by copy and paste or drag and drop.

    Good luck...

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and

  • Vista does not recognize external hard drive (LONG!)

    I bought a Terrabite Cavalry USB Mass Storage 1 unit some time around January 2009. We used it to back up my computers portable wife and daughters without any problems (it was Windows XP a Windows Vista). Shortly after, we have tried to back up my desktop computer, also running Windows Vista, but my computer does not recognize the drive into any USB port. After this attempt, we get is more willing to work on any computer. We contacted the cavalry and they replaced the drive, but we lost a lot of data since most of the files saved on my wife and daughter desktops have been deleted to clean up their hard drives.
    When I received the spare drive I backed up my computer with no problems.
     
    We moved from NC to PA in August of last year and had packed the new car. Recently, we unpacked and used to transfer ALL the photos of my wife, numbering several hundred, again with no problems. In addition, she has saved his computer using the Vista utility. Today, I made the horrible mistake of trying to back up my computer using the same player. I had completely forgotten the previous question. Yet once, my computer did not recognize the drive, any USB port used or on the tabs 'computer '. When the drive is plugged in and turned on, it will be not even allow us to display the elements on the tab 'computer '.
     
    And now, just as before, the player no longer works on my wife's computer either. THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL QUESTION! If we cannot access the drive over 500 photos of our family, covering more than 5 years are lost forever!
     
    Although I've read similar questions on this site (especially in regards to Windows XP) I can't find the one that is exactly the same problem as this.
    There is nothing wrong with my computer. Each USB port works fine. I tried other USB devices with no problems of any kind.
     
    On both computers, if you connect the external drive and the power up it starts with a light blue on the front as it is supposed to. He then became red and Windows makes the normal audio alert, as it does with any USB device plugged. On the bar, the new icon 'Remove hardware safely', says but clicking on that alone causes the computer to get ung place intil the drive is unplugged. The same is tru if we try to access the tab "Computer" in the Start Menu. The computer attempts to load the itms 'Computer' but never the completion of the task. THE TWO COMPUTER DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING! My wife uses a Dell with Vista Home Premium and I use an EMachine with Vista Home Basic. And this issue seems to happen only after using his computer to mine, not the other way around because I had done a backup on thise drive when I got last year and she just did a new now on his own.
    I wrote to the Cavalry, but received no response. They said the last time that they aren't able to recover lost data, and it is said that all over their site.
    The external drive is a cavalry model # CAXP3701PA.
    Someone please help! Pictures of our last five years (including photos of my wife of his precious Golden Retriever from puppy to now) are lost if we cannot solve this problem. It seems that the player works well, but something corrupting of the software driver. We tried again to my wife's computer o and it begins with "Download driver software for device" but then what I described before using it.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Put the disc in a real store of the computer (not the leeks and the glances at a Best Buy or other stores)
    and they can remove the drive from the case and put it in another computer to back up data
    to other media. Of course this cancels any warranty and may not work if the drive has probably
    in fact failed. Data can often be recovered since a failed drive while it's expensive.

    (The drive could be put in either your PC as a 2nd drive).

    I hope this helps.

  • Vista does not recognize video card

    I recently moved, and after I put my computer my monitor is not a signal. I plugged my monitor on the main port and it came. My computer does not recognize the card in the Device Manager. I opened it and inspected the map for all the Visual problems and plugged it upward and noticed that the fan on the graphics card not working. I then did a full restore of the system, reinstalled the installation CD supplied with the card after you disable the onboard and restarted my computer. Still does not recognize the card and after restarting it on my integrated card. Then, I went into the BIOS and selected PCI-E as my first. So... im out of ideas here, if the fan is still ongoing is not the card still work? I don't have another office to plug it in. Is there another way to know if the card works? Why it can't recognize the graphics card which was working fine before the move? On a side note, the computer was unplugged for 2 weeks during this time, but I don't know why this could be a problem.

    IM using Vista 32 bit.

    Hi Myriam.
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers forum
    If the fan on the card does not is an indicator that the card is not powered, so the only way to test it is to plug it into another machine to see if the motherboard is not giving power or is the card that is bad. You can also try to plug a PCI-E device and see if it has power.

    You have all the cables connected directly from the power supply to the graphics card?
