• I installed a firewire card on my pc windows 8 and come to find out that there is no driver available for my Panasonic pv103 dv compatible camcorder.

  Since there is no compatable driver with my camcorder and windows 8, I searched online for a usb digital-to-analog converter.  I just realized that I can't find an a d converter that is compatible with windows 8 either (at least at a reasonable price).

  I brought the computer to edit video on - and so far I can't.

  Hello

  Is the problem with the Firewire card or camcorder?

  Whatever it is, you can try to install in Compatibility Mode for an earlier version of windows...

  You could also try right click on the Installer (installation-installation-whatever) for the device file problem and select troubleshoot compatibility. Just follow the instructions in the wizard.

• After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive.

  I have a lenovo laptop, processor Intel i3, 500 GB hard drive. After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive.

  Run the hard drive HD diagnosis extended CD scan manufacturer to know with certainty the State of the reader.  If your brand has no bootable diagnostics in the link, use Seagate Seatools burned onto CD or SeaTools for a USB key .  Follow this with a full check disk command from the installation media kicked prompt know with absolute certainty the State of the reader.  If he repeated the errors after you run the two tests twice, I replace it or at least keep everything backed up in real time.

• Pavilion 20-B323W: so I guess that there is no control support windows 10 drivers or bios...

  This computer was given to me running win 10.  tried to do a reset, but for some reason it didn't, so I did a reset to factory than brpght me back to win 8.  did all updates, finally updated to 8.1 after many failures.  fact the upgrade from win 10 and am right now doing a clean install from a DVD ISO.  I thought that, maybe, I need to update BIOS, drivers, etc..  However, HP is apparently not to support ANY victory 10 pilots, etc. for this machine.  is there advice, help or advice anyone can suggest?

  Thanks for any help or advice that can be offered

  circe801

  You are the very welcome.

  Looking at the support page for your PC, I see that pilot support through Windows 8.1, and the last update of the BIOS is on the W8 support page, which I do not recommend running on W10 if you have not already installed it.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-20-B300-all-in-one-desktop-PC-series/5395624/model/5398935

  What this means is that HP is not supporting this model of PC for W10 at all.

  Sometimes you can use the W8 and W10 8.1 drivers for all devices that may require drivers.

  I used the Vista drivers on some to run my old HP PC W10 and they works perfectly.

  I have an old HP dc7800 desktop and W10 version installed a generic audio driver, which worked OK, but there was a jerky sound of intervene it whenever I start the PC.

  However the driver audio W7 support page of the dc7800 worked better than this W10 natively installed and installed the audio control panel, and the burst of sound from speakers disappeared.

  Hey mooredale24

  they are two completely different operating systems.

  You can switch from xp to vista, if you meet certain conditions

  under microsoft link has the vista minimum system hardware requirements for you to check if you have

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/products/system-requirements

  and as you mention HP go to their Web site below and see if your model computer has vista drivers available for him

  http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/support.html

  If it is not an hp computer go to the manufacturer of the brand of your computer and do the same

  If no vista driver is available, do not upgrade to vista

  link below has xp to vista upgrade paths

  you'd have to try online on amazon.com, ebay etc or ask at your local computer store

• After you have installed the Windows updates, my computer does not recognize that there is a disc in the DVD - ROM thing

  I had this problem for weeks and only recently someone told me that it is perhaps for this reason.
  I tried several things to fix, and one of those who created an error where when I clicked on drive E in Windows Explorer, it looks like:

  E:\ application not found

  So, in the end, I wiped my computer and everything on it and rebooted again.

  IT TOOK FOUR HOURS.

  So, I've set up the computer as I did when I got it 2 years ago, and everything was fine. I could insert a disc, it reads that and I was able to install my game, no problems.

  Now, I have reset everything up, and there are more than 2000 updates to update installed. So I did.

  SO NOW, after all this, which took another TWO HOURS - he does not all disks again.

  I play the Sims 3 - fiercely - and so I tried to re - install all my expansion packs, but it does not now.

  I DON'T want to make that whole process again and install all my games before updating Windows, because I believe, even if I did that, once I've updated, I can't play the game, because my laptop does not recognize that the game disc is there.

  Help, please.

  I spent so much money on these games, and I love them! I don't have the money to buy a new computer.

• Support for Microsoft Windows Server 2003

  Hello

  Can you please let me know the end of support for Windows Server 2003?

  I manage and application that is currently running on Windows Server 2003 and will soon migrate to Windows Server 2012 but the exact date is not decided, as a lot of analysis should be done prior to the actual migration.

  Please let me know when Microsoft end this support for their Windows Server 2003 so that I can work on that accordingly.

  That would be really helpful. Any announcement already made by Microsoft on this? I found a few things online stating it would be 2015, but nothing seems to have come directly from Microsoft.

  Thank you in advance for the information.
