  • Is there a driver for Windows 7 available for this printer? One user in our office was able to make it work with the Vista driver.

    Is there a driver for Windows 7 available for this printer?  One user in our office was able to make it work with the Vista driver.

    According to the website of Epson here

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?l=en-us&type=hardware&s=Epson%20fx-980&OS=32-bit

    the latest drivers are for Windows XP 32-Bit.

    This Epson Web page says drivers

    http://eSupport.Epson-Europe.com/ViewArticle.aspx?LNG=en-GB&kbid=324521

    are available via Windows Update.

    Microsoft Windows 7 Compatibility Center:

  • TimeZones West Australia. Vista/Win7 with 1 HR calendar of January 6, 2010 with the Vista OS PRE.

    I am Manager of a network COMPUTER in Perth (Western Australia) and have found that appointments Outlook differ in the time of 1 hour between vista pre and post vista systems after January 6, 2010.  On vista and latest appointments are 1 hour later than XPP/W2k3 server.
    Summer time was cancelled in WA and patches released to fix.  All systems have include the hotfix KB974176 and KB976098 installed.
    I've tested with Microsoft office 2003 and office 2007 and found no change.  I have eliminated the exchange Server 2003 as I can reproduce the problem between Win7 and autonomous XPP (not on the field) systems, using the POP of an ISP email.
    I called Microsoft support, the person told me that there is probably a fix published and to call hide them if it's still a problem on the 6 January.  This person seemed unsure of things and I felt he didn't have a patch being released, but just then assumed and was told to end the call of support.
    Like any good computer scientist should be, trying to stop a potential problem before it happens (and I will be on leave on the 6 January).  With appointment problems can cost the company a lot of money if the meetings are missed.

    Is anyone able to tell me if there is a known issue, which will be a patch or hotfix released before the January 6?  Or let me know how to get in touch with the right people at Microsoft who can help me.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Two computers with Windows Vista has problems with (screens going blank).

    We have a Sony Vaio laptop and an HP Touchsmart with Windows Vista.  Last week Sony screen turned black and jumped, then back with the message saying there was an error with the NVIDIA GRAPHICS DRIVER, the driver had stopped working properly.  You had to do repair system, which then gave me an option to do system restore to the previous time.  Done this and back Sony a bit, then the screen went black and had to repeat the process.  Long story short, it won't restore or do something.  HP Touchsmart now do the same thing.  Anyone having this problem?

    If you have the message on which you say that you did - it's a driver problem or a video card problem.  If you allowed Microsoft to update your nVidia driver - that might be the root of your problem.  It is possible that both machines have nVidia video cards, maybe even the same.  In any case - the solution remains the same for at least the one you quoted the error for.

    Download and install the latest video card for any device driver is installed and if this does not work - could be material.

    I'm guessing that the machines are in the same place - same meaning House or business?  If they are connected to a regulation of output/device which could damage the components via automatic voltage of the voltage drops and overvoltages?

  • connection after the vista update problems

    After that windows vista updates, restarts and configures, I can't seem to login screen. I type the correct password, but the screen only flashes for a second and watch the blue progress ring, but then comes back to the right of the login screen. I have to restart and run system restore just to connect, this happened last week with the same update and is quite a nuisance. Updates include:
    (important)
    Update for Windows Vista (KB971029)

    Windows malicious software removal tool - March 2011 (KB890830)

    (optional)
    Updated the Realtek for Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller driver

    -Input - Synaptics Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad

    Windows Live Essentials 2011 (KB2434419)

    Hi Raziel,

    First of all, we will do two important things:

    1. DON'T download or install updates from Windows Update for Realtek and Synaptics (or any other device drivers).  Instesd of get them through Windows Update, go to the computer or Web sites of the device manufucaturer to get the latest update and install instead.  Hide these two Windows updates so they don't mind again.  Unless expressly stated by the manufuacturer for updates from the Windows Update driver, always bring manufacturers instead.  They are the cause of many problems of update.

    2. in prior to starting the updates (and for each 3 other updates and driver updates), create a System Restore Point.  Of allows to install the other three updates one at a time and manually instead of through Windows Update.  Go to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx and look for the KB number and download the update appropriate for your version of Vista and install it, and restart and make sure that all is well before you more on the following.  If we have the same problem, use the restore system back out of it and post back here with the specific update that won't install manually as well as any error information, you can find the problem.  If we can reduce it to one, we will have a better chance of coming up with a solution.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Win 7 64 bit and Z22 synchronization with the Aceeca drivers problem

    Toshiba Satellite A205 desktop Acer Win 7 64, Palm Z22

    I have 2 computers (desktop and laptop) running win 7 64.  I was happy when I came across the message that a pilot had been created for the 64-bit version.  I followed the instructions and my office to synchronize with my Z22 - works great!  I'm having a problem with the laptop.  It is a little more and was vista forms upgraded to Win 7 64.  I downloaded the Palm desktop program and followed the Setup instructions for the Aceeca drivers.  When I try to Synch - it hangs to sync to Addit - 9 of the 12 completed.  Program office (on the laptop) actually hangs and I have to use the Task Manager to close it.  It says address book has been done, but nothing appears.  I deleted all the software (office and drivers) and reinstalled 3 times and I get the same problem.  I'm only really interested in my address book.  I suppose I could use an export/import from the desktop to the laptop with a flash drive, but I would like to be able to synchronize the phone with the Z22.  Device manager incicates the unit is running correctly on both computers.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Go to the Hotsync Manager and change the setting of conduit for Addit ' doing nothing '.

    Addit has been dead for many years now.

  • with the Vista installation error: bootmgr.c

    The system:
    AMD Phenom x 4 9450
    4 GB of ram
    300 GB SATAII
    PATA DVD - RW
    Win Vista Ultimate x 64

    Error occurs when you attempt to repair the installation of windows vista.

    The system worked very well.  I put a Server 2 k 8 installation disc, to capture an error message I received some time ago.  Once I got the error message, I took the 8 2 k disk out and restarted.  Vista appeared be started normally, but when going in the loading bar, to black, and then to load the cursor, the system just stayed black (white screen).  There is no error message, just a white screen.  The screen is not time and sleep, as if there is a lack of signal; He remains alive.

    So I put in my Vista installation disc to do a repair. The installation disc comes at the end of "loading files", and when the installer would normally load, I get an error instead.

    *******
    Source: d:\vistartm\base\boot\environ\app\bootmgr\bootmgr.c
    Situation: 0xc0000225
    Line: 1496
    Info: An unexpexted error has occurred.
    ******

    I tried this with different drives and even with the drive disconnected.  I checked the installation disc will load normally on another PC.  Any thoughts\ideas as to what this error is trying to tell me?

    Wow, I was hoping this would be the DVD drive.  The only place from there is controllers and cables, then eventually the motherboard.

    Given that you receive the error without the hard drive is connected and the media works on other systems, we roamed outside what I'm allowed to support in this forum, but I was hoping that we would identify the material defective and much faster.

    My apologies for not being able to help you solve this problem, but if the system is still under warranty, it's a contact in good time the hardware manufacturer.

    If you ultimately identify what is the cause, thanks for posting this information here.  I would really like to know what is the source of this error.

  • Remote control/software Apple TV with the App Store problems

    Seems ridiculous that a Sept 2016 4th Gen apple TV purchase has the same problems of connectivity with the App store. Impossible to connect, or even choose App store, or spare parts offline, erratic, glitch and acts as a problem of distance, but seems to be a software problem or interface. Obvious corrections or ideas to stabilize or least to increase connectivity to app store with 4th Gen Apple TV/remote control?

  • SYNCHRONIZATION with the IPOD Touch PROBLEM

    Help

    In my IPod sync is not all of the songs in my ITunes music library are downloaded to my IPod. An error message comes up saying:

    "Some of the items in the ITunes library, including (name of one of the songs) were not copied to the IPOD because you are not allowed for them on this computer."

    "To authorize this computer for items bought on the ITunes store, choose Store > authorize this computer."

    "For a list of items that cannot be copied, click on the + below.

    In this case 48 songs do not have can be copied. The computer is allowed (I went through this process and confirms that the computer has been authorized) and in all cases, several new songs to the library have been copied.

    What is the problem and how can I get these 48 songs copied to my Ipod?

    It is possible that these 48 songs were purchased from the iTunes Store use a different ID to Apple?  iTunes Store no longer use DRM (copy protection) for the songs, the songs would be really old purchases (in the early years of the iTunes Store).  You can check the Apple ID used for the purchase by doing a Get Info on one of these songs in iTunes.  In the window information, file tab, look at was purchased by.  If this ID Apple is not your current Apple ID, you must use the command allow this computer again.  This time, replace your current Apple with the former and password ID.

    NOTE: A computer can be allowed to read the content of several Apple ID.  Authorizing with old Apple ID does not remove the current authorization Apple ID.

  • Photosmart B209a more: with the Scanner B209a problem...

    It seems that my scanning device was already installed before my installation. How to remove this old installation scanner?

    Thank you

    I solved my problem, NO thanks to HP. Thanks for me!

    HP support will serve only a consult...

    The driver has been corrupted, corrupt yourself, an incompatibility with daily updates of Microsoft, I do not know what upgrade but here is the solution.

    I changed the group from my home network to the public, that the public at home, that the printer was visible on the HP program. So I uninstall all HP programs and use the driversweeper to clean all.

    That, I install the complete program with the HP driver as administrator and in compatibility win mode 7 (as I said, I use win7).

    SOLVED by myself.

    HP abandons us, I have a high end of my time printer and don't bother HP (it's time laugh you!) HP CARE)

    You guys make a driver and programs more accessible Microsoft and compatible! Tha'ts started too much programming at the end as it is, is simply take the best, see for the snippet of microsoft that the discovery of your printer and install, when YOUR programs don't.

    Thank me (no thank you)

  • cannot restore the system with the Vista recovery disc, computer stuck in step 3 of 3 loop

    Hi all

    My computer has been blocked in the formidable step 3 of 3 loop. I followed the advice of Mr. Murphy and created the Vista recovery disk. I loaded it and followed the instructions. Everything was fine. I chose a 5 days ago restore point, and it went well until he must "finalize the restoration of files...". ». That's where he stayed - it would not be completed. I tried the restore points different, all with the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try to make with her startup repair.

    With this CD, you can also do a startup repair of your Vista OS with it.

    If she can't do a startup repair and system restore has failed, it is time to consider doing a re-install of the Vista operating system.

    See you soon.

  • Key and original Windows XP disc has activation with the re-installation problem

    My old machine running on Windows XP Professional exploded in April. I bought a new one and installed the original software (performed by a technician here in SA) disc.

    Microsoft raised a question on the authentic software and I provided all the originals to the Microsoft Help team, but my technician was to get Windows running again may 23 (after 8 days of waiting for a response from the Microsoft Help Center).

    Today the Windows operating system were asked again for activation - but it says that it is enabled.

    However I can not open a session.

    Is the product key: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

    The bar code on the label said hologram: 99994-625-347-755 b X 12-08297

    THE CASE WAS REFERENCE: 1177290811 and THE DATE was 22/23 May 2012.

    I was dealing with Jatin Gandhi, who has not responded to me since last week when I sent him an e-mail on the caveat on the question of the activation.

    I am running Windows XP because I have the drivers for instruments that are not upgraded to the other windows.

    Concerning

    Margie Hengstberger

    Hi Margie.

    Let me start by saying that is a bad idea to share your first and last name on a public forum. It is just as bad validate your product key. Fortunately, it has been blocked or deleted.

    Then, the majority of us who provide assistance here does not work for Microsoft. We are volunteers who give of our time and our knowledge. Therefore, your file number and the name of the person who helped you is of no consequence to us.

    With that, on the way, we will, if we can solve your problem. It is clear from your message and correct me if I'm wrong, that you have a Windows disk that was used to install Windows Xp on your current computer by some technicians where you live. Validation/activation issues have emerged, now, with the current computer. Apparently the technicians who installed Windows on your current computer gave you the Windows disc. Am I correct so far? If not, please tell me what I'm missing.

    In the interest of time assume that my interpretation of the scenario is correct. I would be very surprised if the disc you received is legitimate. It seems that the computer was in the period 30 trial when you received that would explain why you now get a request to activate Windows. The period seems to be very close to matching the scenario I described as well.

    Personally, if it was my computer and I had paid someone (the technicians who installed Windows) to the computer or to install Windows, I come back to that person and ask it be fixed. I think maybe it's where is the problem and who is responsible for this problem.

    For now, I will provide you with instructions to reset the trial period. However, the number of times that this is limited to four. Therefore, once the new trial has started, you will need to solve this problem one way or another, with technicians who have installed Windows on the computer.

    The trial of Activation reset:
    ------------------------------

    1 turn on your PC

    2 repeatedly press F8 and go to Safe Mode

    3. connect according to the normal
    (Note: administrator password is usually empty, or use the recovery password if CD does not know the password)

    4. leave the Office to fully charge (who answered "Yes" to continue mode without failure)
    (Note: this is just a long way to say go to Safe Mode)

    5. click on start - run

    6 type exactly: rundll32.exe syssetup, SetupOobeBnk (then click OK)
    (Note: a single space after 'rundll32.exe' also the Oo are two letter o in "oobe"; capital and the comma are important)

    7. wait a few seconds (although you won't see any change)

    8 restart your PC normally (start - stop - restart - Ok)

  • How can I restart/reinstall my computer to factory settings if it did not come with the Vista CD?

    A windows update error code came on my computer that cannot be resolved, and I have to completely redo my computer i.e. restore it at settings as if I had when I bought it first. The manufacturer of my computer is Compaq and I don't have the Vista cd with it, it was already reinstalled (im from the UK) how I re do the comp without the cd.
