Window update causing problems of printer driver

Hi, I have a laptop running XP and router wireless computer (WAG54G) and a set of HP6380 in one. About 2 nights ago an update to Windows Installer by himself and rebooted the laptop (even though I have some turned off automatic updates what they seem to be screwing with anything these updates produce still grr)...

I went to try and print and to found the 6380 was absent from the list of available printers... The problem is not with the wireless network (as it is trendy and functional). I don't know what it does the update of windows... but when I tried to reinstall the drivers for this printer from the disc, he acknowledged that they were already installed... So I uninstalled them instead (and it is taken up only parts of the driver remained and he removed these pieces).

Then I tried to do a fresh driver... install that took a long time because it got stuck at the end... Finally, he came up with an error and so I tried to introduce him, HP - and received click on a desktop icon... (Icon HP - XP Installation). I tried it but it tells me to 1) Reinstall driver (done twice -) solve printing problems wireless (not a problem at this point given that I have no printer driver and I can use the network wireless for other things very well) well tried anyway... or 2

Anyone has any suggestions please > in the past when Windows updates have caused problems, I used the system restore to roll back, but this is only a temporary solution - as Windows insists on the updates I want!

Thank you very much!

If you have the original HP software CD, look in the folder of the ccc/utils for a L3_unintsall (or similar).  Run for an uninstall very full.

Reset.

Now, download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & Driver" link at the top of this page.  DO NOT reinstall from the CD (a good rule is in general not the CDs software, but to go to the website of the manufacturer for the latest and best).

  • "Laserjet 1022n Windows Update", causing problems printing: print jobs do not print

    Hello

    A few days ago I installed upgrading Windows Laserjet 1022n on my Windows 7 64 bit and since then I can not print a page normally: the page does not print. I use a TCP/IP network port.

    I made several attempts to resolve this problem:

    -uninstall the printer driver and install it again (I tried the latest version on the HP site and an older one that worked perfectly before)

    -update the firmware of the printer to the latest version on the HP site.

    When I put the printer in pause and start the print job, you can see in the list. Resumption of the printer, printing starts on the printer but you see that the job remains in the list, flashes again and again. The printer keeps printing the same page.

    I don't know what I can do to solve this problem. There is no way to uninstall the update of the HP Laserjet 1022n software because it does not appear in the list of installed programs (course list is also op updates from windows updates).

    I have same problem printing to the same printer from another PC Windows 7 (with the same windows update done)

    But I have no problem printing with my laptop on an other network printers.

    Is there someone who has the same problem and how to solve?

    Thank you for answer

    I found the solution on this site: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/59912-29-1022n-printer-stop-printing

    Just uncheck the chekbox "enable two-way communication" on the "Ports" tab of the properties of the printer and it works normally again!

  • Windows update caused catastrophic hdd failure?

    I installed the update of windows the other day to return to find the catastrophic hard drive failure. I've never had problems with this computer before. I wonder if anyone has had similar problems. I lost a lot of work, the photos that I'm never going back.

    Is it possible that windows update caused this hard drive failure?

    Hello

    Windows updates won't cause failure catastrophic hdd. In addition, I would like to let you know that hard drives are mechanical devices with moving parts, so they are subject to wear and tear expected. It may possibly do not mechanically at a given time. However, most of the manufacturers branded their product with an average (usually supplied by total number of operating hours). But if a part is defective or there is some manufacturing defects, service life of the drive, a bit more in as little as a day.

    Other factors are primarily external in nature. Mounted sudden power can cause a drive failure, as can cause fire or damage, as well as a number of computer viruses of water. Exposure to high levels of magnetism can disrupt the classic functions of a player, as well as net impacts. If dust gets in a car, it can become a catalyst for an eventual failure.

    Thank you.

  • Windows Update Causes startup problem

    I have an interesting problem with Windows Update (or apparently is from Windows Update). I am running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit, if that info is needed. There are two updates I have not install, as I am not sure that is the cause. The updates in question are Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Defender definitions 1.63.604.0. Here's what's happening.

    When you restart after Windows updates, the computer starts with a black screen with a mouse pointer. That's all. Happened every time I tried to start after the pdates. I can reboot into SafeMode very well, is apparently a problem driver or update.

    I also installed DivX on the computer, but it seemed to work as I could watch .avi via WMP thereafter, so I excluded. I thought that if there was a problem with it, it would not have worked in the first place, but I thought it was interesting.

    In any case, the only solution I found doing a system restore and do not install updates day or DivX, since technically I don't know which is the cause. I had to restore the system 3 times already and I didn't continue to do because this computer was very expensive and I don't want to ruin the hardware or something.

    Someone knows something about an error with updates, or perhaps with DivX that may have caused this. The computer works fine without the updates or DivX, I just want to know what could be the real problem so if it is only one of the 3, I can install the other two at least.

    Change your update settings, install the updates one at a time, hide the problem:

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    See you soon.

  • A Windows Update which included a NVIDIA driver's day, now of video problems

    A few days ago, I installed a driver NVIDIA update in the updates of windows.  Since then, I have had problems with the video screen goes blank.  Whenever I was forced to do a power cycle to recover. Several times.  After awhile, I had to reinstall Windows 7, no surprise.  But, even after this reinstall I still see video problems.  I used this machine for 8 years and never had a problem before this video.  Never.  It is a new problem that came with the installation of the update of the driver.  It seems that the NVIDIA installation has changed something that Windows 7 reinstall couldn't fix!  Looks like something in the video card or the BIOS.

    I expect that any change in the inner workings of windows, including that the registry would be more written by Windows 7 reinstall.  This is a full installation.  Not a repair.  I tried a repair, but didn't work, so a complete installation.

    The update of the included NVIDIA driver NVIDIA console could be appearing in the Panel.  This console configures the driver settings, without going through the windows interface.   What did do?  May have changed the firmware on the card?  May have changed the NIC of the OS?  Maybe something changed in the BIOS.  That was the case, the change persisted after reinstallation of Windows 7.  Yesterday, to installed the provided Comcast Norton security suite.  After the death of the first installation of the video.  I did an uninstall/reinstall and it seems ok at the moment.  Never had this problem before.  Initially, this machine has Windows XP and has been updated to Windows 7.  On both versions of the OS, I have installed security software and never no problem.  Not until this update of NVIDIA driver has been installed with the console software.

    I have really no need for their new console super driver.  I'm not a player, just need to get my system back to a reliable State.

    While searching for a solution on the internet, I'm a LOT see people with this problem.  It seems that this has been a matter of months.  Since I have this problem while performing a Microsoft provided update, Microsoft must weigh on this and get NVIDIA to present a real difficulty.

    After having the same DELL machine for 8 years, I thought to be updated to a mini pc.   A shoe more small print on my desk.  But I'm very concerned about getting a machine with NVIDIA graphics.  Also, I now seem that one cannot assume the updates from Microsoft to be sure.

    Of course, this seems to be a driver problem.  I don't know if the NVidia updates change firmware on the card.

    If this computer is a variety of funds, and I presume that it is or it would not still be alive after 8 years, your best solution will be to go to the computer store and buy a low range graphics card that will fit in your PC.  Probable cost is less than $50.  Only problem is you need to know what type of video slot machine MB of your computer has.  The video card must adapt it.

    If you tell us the brand / model of the PC, we are able to provide more help.

    I should add that my PC is about 6 years old and has a NVidia video card.  I made the mistake of getting a new NVidia driver also.  He made a number of problems.  Finally, I solved it by uninstalling and removing all components of NVidia.  Then by restarting.  I remember not but either Windows installed the right driver or it has been updated for Windows installed.  No problem since.

    nVidia is not really interested in visitors like us.  Their focus is on the players.  Accordingly, users like we end up with a software that is very different from what we actually need.

  • Windows Update causing various problem on the computer

    Original title: bad update?

    11/10, I downloaded and installed updates Vista KB2641690, KB2492386, KB972971644, KB2505189. There is more, but this format makes it very difficult to enumerate. My computer is now constantly lock up, and various closed functions (Explorer being the worst).

    My computer works horribly since the update. Is there a way to reverse the updates, or should I use a fixed disc and just pray that I don't have reinstall?

  • Windows Update Causes Massive screw-up system. Help!

    Hello world!

    I need help desperately. I use a HP Slimline desktop running Vista. I've recently updated (last Tuesday or more) using UPDATES AUTOMATIC - and my computer everything is SCREWED now.

    Essentially - I installed the update as part of the shutdown process, as I normally would. But restart my computer, it gets regarding the screen before the log-in (when he has this loading bar bit and the rest of the screen is black). Momentarily, one of two things happens:

    1. blue screen of death. The computer turns off, tells me to reboot and try to restart in Mode without failure.

    2. Startup Repair launches. I ran the diagnostic tool, but it has not detected any problem.

    So pretty much the problem is that WINDOWS WILL NOT BOOT. In the Startup Repair, it tells me there is no problem with anything - but it also TELLS me THAT SYSTEM RESTORE has BEEN STOP on my computer. I do not disable this feature!

    I have all my files stored on my external hard drive - however, my computer does not recognize this drive. My wireless internet, which is usually given if my computer is turned on or not, also does not work.

    I'm totally screwed? I mean, I've never used to before startup repair and it is confusing, mostly because I do not know why the system restore does not work. I CANNOT LAUNCH MODE without FAILURE or any other useful tips from Windows.

    What can I do? Help, please.

    the computer had McAfee installed as a trial when I bought it. Have since renewed - subscription is up to date, and no problems have been associated with him other than he identify some of my updates of windows as spyware.

    1 applications McAfee (and Norton) are known to not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Even on the assumption that you have purchased a subscription before the free trial period has expired, there is a good chance that "remnants" of the trial caused the version purchased, renewed not to install and work properly.

    2. the fact that the application of McAfee is supposed to be identify legitimate (assumed) updates to Windows as"spyware" is certainly the evidence to me that the application of McAfee was not "works" and therefore led to the infection of W32/Alureon rootkit you are dealing with now.

    To be clear as possible, your problems are not due to the installed KB977165 itself, they are due the KB977165 have installed on an already infected computer. [1]

    That being said, I wouldn't bother a support of opening incident now. Follow these steps, instead:

    [You may want to print these instructions for offline viewing.]

    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!

    Once installed the clean, 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) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

    NB: The McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the removal tool from McAfee before installing updates, Windows Service Packs, or updates IE and before you reinstall your purchased version of McAfee Security Center [2].

  • 82566MM security update causes problem

    I use a network with fixed ip addresses setting and a 300 tinkpad X.

    After installing Intel 82566 MM Gigabit Network Connection update via Windows Update on every reboot

    the default gateway is removed. I can enter it manually in the network settings, but this isn't the way it should work.

    Does anyone have a solution for this?

    Concerning

    Johann

    I'm terribly sorry. Not the NIC driver update caused the problem. The problem came with Vista Service Pack 2.

    I found the following solution and it works now fine again:

    1. open the registry, regedit.exe
    2. go into the path: HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/Tcpip/parameters/Interfaces.
    3. here you must select the CLSID of your network card when you change the settings. You'll probably recognize it watching the IPAddress value which will have IP address for this adapter.
    4. open the value 'Passerelle_par_defaut' of doubleclicking it. You will see a list of all the bridges that disappeared! (maybe in your case it will be single, in my case it was because of the many test multiple addresses) Most likely, the first line will be empty. I don't know how this little flaw can be a big problem. However, if you manually delete the first empty line, click OK and restart your system, everything should be working again fine.

  • Windows update and the eternal Saga Driver

    I have Win Vista Home Premium 64 - bit version. I also have a Samsung CLX-3175 Color Laser printer.

    Windows Update keeps reporting that an optional update for this printer is available, published on 29/04/2009.

    I made the following...

    The driver installed and checked again - Windows Update reports that's always ready to download
    The installed driver, restarted my computer and then checked.
    Looked at this forum and followed the instructions on renaming the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution - still does not work
    Contacted Samsung to see if there is anything that I should know - they passed me back here

    Any suggestions?

    Shayne

    Hi SkeE007,

    This problem may occur if you do not install the updates in the correct order. An old update does not install on a new update because newer versions of files are detected on the system. Therefore, the installation of the older update is unsuccessful; However, no NDR is sent to the Automatic Update component. Thus, the automatic update interprets this setup as a successful operation. Because the update has not been installed successfully, you continue to benefit from the update until the server still offers the update.

    Follow the steps mentioned below:

    Step 1: Rename the Catroot2 folder


    To rename the Catroot2 folder, follow these steps:

    1. click on Start, type cmd in the Search box, right-click cmd.exe , and then click run as administrator.  At the command prompt, type the following commands and press ENTER after each command:

    net stop cryptsvc
    Ren C:\System32\Catroot2 oldcatroot2
    net start cryptsvc
    output

    {Delete all the following folder tmp*.cat files: C:\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}

    Step 2: Reregister DLL files that are associated with Cryptographic Services

    To register .dll files that are associated with Cryptographic Services, follow these steps:
    Click Start, type cmd in the Search box, right-click cmd.exe , and then click run as administrator.
    At the command prompt, type the following commands and press ENTER after each command:

    regsvr32 /u softpub.dll
    regsvr32 /u wintrust.dll
    regsvr32 /u initpki.dll
    regsvr32 /u dssenh.dll
    regsvr32 /u rsaenh.dll
    regsvr32 /u gpkcsp.dll
    regsvr32 /u sccbase.dll
    regsvr32 /u slbcsp.dll
    regsvr32 /u mssip32.dll
    regsvr32 /u cryptdlg.dll
    output

    Note If you are prompted, click OK .

    Click Start, type cmd in the Search box, right-click cmd.exe , and then click run as administrator.
    At the command prompt, type the following commands and press ENTER after each command:

    regsvr32 softpub.dll
    regsvr32 wintrust.dll
    regsvr32 initpki.dll
    regsvr32 dssenh.dll
    regsvr32 rsaenh.dll
    regsvr32 gpkcsp.dll
    regsvr32 sccbase.dll
    regsvr32 slbcsp.dll
    regsvr32 mssip32.dll
    regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll
    output

    Restart the computer.

    Step 3: Hide the update

    Since the update dates back to April, you can simply right click on the update and select hide update and it will not appear on the list the next time that you use the update service. We have hidden the update because it is very possible that you would have received the latest version of this update that is already installed on the computer.

    I hope that helps!

  • Windows 8.1 hangs in Windows Update, trying to get the driver

    (I posted this query on another Forum HP. A person named Waterboy71 who claims to be working "on behalf of" HP suggested that I post here for a wider exposure.) We have added a Surface Pro 3 64 bit 8.1 running win to our home network.  Our Office XP WHAT features of an HP LaserJet 1200 printer is connected via USB and it is shared. Our laptop running XP has no problem to the 1200 LaseJet impression. On the Surface when you try to add the printer Win 8.1 concludes the LaserJet 1200 and calls Windows Update, probably to download a 64-bit printer driver. Windows Update crashes, it is short and does not stop. We have let it run for about an hour before the end of. I looked on the HP site for the drivers and it seems to imply that Windows Update is the right way to get the driver, that we need. Is there another way to do this? Or y at - it a way to get the update can I work correctly?

    Here's what works in windows 7 and will probably work in windows 8. You need to load the printer on windows 8 machine as a local printer by saying it is connected to the lpt1 port and disable auto-detection. Just follow the prompts and when you get to the page of manufacturers choose hp on the left, then the lj1200 or universal pcl printer driver on the right. Finish the load and do not print a test page. Now, you will need to know the name of the computer that the printer is connected and it will also need the name of the share allocated to the printer on this computer. For these instructions I will use the name of the computer as xpmachine and the sharehane as lj1200. You will replace your real names. Now right click on the printer icon in devices and printers, then highlight the first properties and left click. Now, click ports, and then add the port. In the box that appears, type the following: \\xpmachine\lj1200 where you will replace your names. Save and apply and you will now be able to print to the printer.

Maybe you are looking for
