I downloaded the drivers needed from the Dell site and the burner will not work. The computer was again in March 2009. Not sure where the drivers should be located. I downloaded on: win\syswow64\drivers\afc.sys. I've looked everywhere and tried to find a dialog box offering the option "update drivers" for this device. Could not find a way to do except Dell and that doesn't seem to work. The 64-bit system has no 'Device Manager' that I can find. When I look at the properties of the burner, the link to "find a solution" is not highlighted.
Hello DanHenry,

This just started about 2 weeks ago and it starts as soon as I opened my browser and it does matter not what browser I use. I have also a lot of page up latch and do ctrl alt del out of there because it crashes my cursor and we can do it all. I ran Microsoft Security Essentials to search for viruses and it came back clear, I did a disk cleanup and I cleaned my computer with a program I have and none of it helped. So if someone has something they know who can help, I would be very grateful.
Hello
No security program finds all so do a thorough check of the malware.
You say you "cleaned up my computer with a program I have.
We recommend that you use that you use a registry or a program of cleaning/TuneUP/utilities, because they can do more harm to your any good operating system that they claim to be able to do.
Search for malware, if necessary using the safe mode with networking.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-Windows-in-safe-mode/#Vista
Windows Vista
Using the F8 method:
- Restart your computer.
- When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
- Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
- Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
- To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
- Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.
Once in Safe Mode with network, download and run RKill.
RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

The system image does not work on win7 Home Premium HP Pavilion Elite HPE 250f
The system image (and Windows Backup with and without Image system options) just do not start with the same error message indicating insufficient space for "Volume Shadow copy".
HD has about 100 MB for the operating system and other files more about 11 GB for HP Factory Image. Trying to backup to an external drive, Iomega USB with 650 GB of capacity. External hard drive now empty but has been used before.
HP support has no answer!
April 24, 2013
Just thought I'd give you the answer to this old problem.
Windows 7 (for earlier versions) work as described in the help of the screen except that the VSS mode
must be turned on. This allows Windows to actuall save parts of the operating system
Although these parts are involved in the actual backup.
Shame on the HP technical support for not knowing this.
In addition, the original tech support suggestion was to call Microsoft.
With a new HP PC you have no direct support from Microsoft (free).
It took me a while to work with Paragon Backup (wonderful product) to realize that VSS
must be enabled in the operating system for these virtual backup features to work.

I've seen others have posted simular questions, but I thought id repost this even in the case where there is more help. I have the Elite Phönix Pavalion h9-1150 desktop with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit. and the bios HP 7.07 (seems no possible to upgrade the bios).
As others have had I install the new graphics card, the 960 Asus GTX card that came out last month and the system start gives about 3 beeps in about 30 seconds and then it goes to a screen that is black with a blinking cursor and nothing else happens. cannot enter bios or settings for HP...
I tried to disable UEFI boot devices in bios settings and enable only the legacy devices (after him swinging back on my original card, then move on to the new card), but it still gives 3 beeps after the start. However, I was able to get into windows. Although I think that this may be due to turn off the computer with the old card in without power first. and after 3 beeps (which always blocks you on the bios menu) sometimes it appears the window where you can select the safe mode or normal mode... as sometimes happens if you start your computer with windows 7 If you had just it off without turning off power or something. There, I can get into windows and run the PC and graphics card without problem, it's just when I try to start the problem happens.
and suppor HP no. is NOT a fault of the card itself. As much before. I bought an EVGA card earlier a GTX 780 and SAME problem happened (although I have not tried to remove it then devices boot UEFI)...
There is a problem of spacific with HP computers that seem to lock 'new' start-up equipment.
Honestly not be blunted. I really think it's bad what I read somewhere that even if HP would never say it they do it on purpose to prevent people ruin of guarantee or any "liabity' that occur by people any other hardware on HP computers inventory installation
makes no since to me. the PC SHOULD be able to run the card. in fact his race he now once I was able to circumvent the blocking (temporarily) check markers, everyhting is fine tracks of card 3 times faster then old (that should be the case).
But it's just this block as HP for some reason any installed on their bios/cards mothers is the question.
Good news is I got it from amazon and I have about a month, until I return. which I think this time I'll make. to see if something pops up in a month or something.
It's the ONLY solution, it seems that HP has officially to deactivate start secure Windows 8
but this isn't a computer of windows 8. and I guess even if install windows 8. the issue wouldn't disappear because given that its an older bios, there is no way to have a secure boot option to delete?
HP you really need to get on the ball and give us a straight answer on this subject. Is it ALL WAY to solve this problem? Can you not just do an older BIOS update to allow this? Or do you simply not want to worry about old PCs?
anyway I think that it is wrong and very frustrating and to be honest. If this is the case when my pc otherwise MUST run on demand
It's a PCI express 16 x slot card that is 3.0
Here are the specifications of deetailed according to the guidelines of your page
http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=c03273835
the card SHOULD WORK fine. I thought the GTX 780 was a little too much for the PC as he had more then a six pin port and needed a little more power, so at first I thought it was the question. so I returned it. and has now got this new card.
However, the ASUS GTX 960 map requires the SAME power that the card GTX 550 it by default and the SAME SIX connector
so it SHOULD work.
and performance tests indicate that it FACT it's just stupid... bios that asks the question.
I'm afraid to turn off the computer at the moment and try again to see if windows starts normally after you turn off the startup UEPI devvices because he cannot start properly...
HP you are one of the largest suppliers of computers you know technology what are YOUR computers. WHY cant you give us a direct awnser on this.
ITS VERY frustrating
and to be honest if I can't solve this problem, I am very hestient never buy another product HP if their spacifically computers have this new method of hardware locking.
because I have the card now works on my pc, it runs great! 3 times as fast as it should! and yet, I know in the back of my mind, if I can't understand this bad likely issue just to send it back... less I have time.
and for now, I did not have money to buy a new pc. This PC is JUST perfect for what I need for now another card then you want a little better...
He shoudnt be as much hassle there?
Thank you.
Hello
You need update the BIOS that is listed under Windows 8 to support the new graphics. You must upgrade to Windows 8 or temporarily install Windows 8, you can install the update to the BIOS. While there may be other ways to install the BIOS update, clearly having Windows 8 running will be the safest way. 8 BIOS version is your best chance to get the latest graphics cards to work.
You can Windows 8 Enterprise 90 days trial.
If you decide to install W8, then create external recovery HP Media and backup your data before doing anything.
The reality is that there is no guarantee that any particular graphics card will work in any particular PC, even if the graphics card works in other PC or even the same or similar model PCs. Know what the return policy is before you buy.

Why Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit installs not Windows updates?
I am not able to download and install Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit windows update. This Gateway laptop has always been able to quickly and easily install the update by clicking windows update. However, since the introduction of Windows 10 it has been a lot of your time trying to install updates. I had this same problem with Windows 7 too. Never before there was no problem for the two operating systems. Installation of Windows updates has always been easy and fast without any problem. Running the troubleshooting isn't good and hunting error codes has been unproductive. What the hell is happening?
Hi Joe Cool1:
'Check for updates...' crashes and slow Windows updates currently affect the SP2 for Vista and Win 7 SP1 users, and I doubt it's a coincidence that Microsoft has ended mainstream support and only provides support for these two operating systems. The evidence points more to a problem with the Windows Update Agent (WUA Vista, C:\Windows\system32\wuaueng.dll v7.6.7600.256 has not been updated since June 2012) and the problem tends to be more prevalent on computers with slower processors and a limited amount of RAM.
There are step-by-step instructions posted on 16 June 2016 wire m #l's updates doesn't work do not, he has been looking for updates to the hours which should speed up Windows Update for both for Win 7 SP1 and SP2 for Vista. The instructions were for users of Vista, so when you reach step 4 just use the appropriate links of Win 7 on the page Web of Dalia http://wu.krelay.de/en/ (Win 7 x 64 if you have 64-bit Win 7 OS;) Win 7 x 86 if you have a 32-bit Win 7 OS) to download packages update stand-alone correct (.msu files) for missing Windows kernel mode driver (Win32K.sys) updates on your Win 7 machine.
You can also find some useful tips in entry 9 August 2016 Microsoft MVP Woody Leonhard on his Woody on Windows InfoWorld blog titled 2 easy steps to speed up scans of Windows 7 update that includes detailed instructions for the use of circumvention of Dalai to http://wu.krelay.de/en/. Woody's workaround for Dalai to speed up Windows Update to users as well Win 7 SP1 and SP2 for Vista.

Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit OS is unable to complete the installation.
Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit OS is unable to complete the installation.
I have a Dell Inspiron 530 of 2007 which came with Vista and has been updated 2 years later at 7 w. I had to reinstall 7 W... 3 or 4 times since 2010. I guess that my machine can't handle W7 very well.My current problem started with a BSOD problem. After trying some suggestions Internet on how to solve this BSOD problem that did not work, including repair of Windows, I did a data back up mode without failure and then decide to reinstall Windows 7 from the MS CD. My level of understanding is limited, but as noted, I've done this before with success. What I didn't understand is there seems to be another unsolved problem which does not allow the complete reinstallation of windows.I did a clean install, then a formatting and in both cases, W7 could not complete the installation. It progresses to the final stage of "complete installation" and then there is a second error message 1 that I can't read... "" a problem has been detected... close... "." It seems to be a reboot loop.I have since read that the original BSOD problem and the 'detected problem' could also well be linked to the display driver. And this driver it must be disabled before performing a Windows installation. But I'm not able to access Safe Mode or the control panel to turn it off. If this driver is the problem, is there another way to turn it off?Or are there any other suggestions on how to complete the installation of the operating system?Thank you.I see that you have posted on the Dell desktop Forums and Robert (rdunnill) gave you a suggestion.

Re-installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on laptop it was installed before
I have a Toshiba laptop (model A665-S6050) that I fixed. He had a broken screen and hard drive was dead. I tried to install Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit from a disc that came with another computer and using the product key on the bottom of the laptop. It did not work. Is there a good way to do a fresh install on this laptop, and I need a specific installation DVD? Where can I get this, and what is the procedure of re - install Windows 7 and activate it?
Hello
The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery
But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).
As you have a license of preinstalled OEM (Toshiba), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they need to provide for a fee, If they are still available...
Or you can also borrow the same exact detail Windows 7 Edition DVD and use your product key to reinstall.
The COA sticker with the product key is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.
With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.
See you soon.
