WMC and RF remote, "do not detect the IR receiver.

I'm setting up WMC and spin on the common problem of "cannot locate the IR receiver". I decided to go for a RF remote that I don't have a direct line of sight between the components. It is a remote control designed for WMC. I have everything plugged in and works. The remote is to talk to everything, including the set - top box. But WMC will not recognize the RF Receiver to replace the IR.

I took a glance at the manual to
 
It seems that you have to "bind" the receiver to yourPC and buttons
along the top to determine how it operates in (IR for decoders, RF for)
PC, etc.) and that there may be software, you must install - I can't tell if
the software is just to control other things.
 
You must install the driver software for the computer first, then plug it
USB cable for the receiver. If you have an onboard eHome receiver, you can
to disable it in Device Manager.

  • After a clean install of Windows Vista, Intel Wifi card is installed and activated, but does not detect the network.

    Wireless card not working after a clean install of Windows Vista

    I did a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium on my HP Pavilion of 32 bits. I've completely updated Windows via Service Pack 2. Given that the clean install, my wireless card, Intel (r) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN, was not able to detect all the networks. The Wifi card is listed under NICs as being installed and activated. the hardware on my laptop Wifi switch is set on "on" and the light is blue, indicating that the card is working.

    I can connect to the internet if I connect physically my computer to the modem with an ethernet cable wireless, so the modem isn't the problem. Other computers can connect to the wireless modem, so my Wifi modem functionality is not the problem. The problem with my computer.

    I tried to uninstall the Intel driver and reboot my computer with the generic driver. Install the driver generic, but my wireless card has not always worked. I then ran an update of windows, nothing helps.

    I tried to install the "Intel® PRO /? Wireless and WiFi Link"drivers for Windows Vista (32-bit 13.1.1.1 the latest version and the previous version 12.4.4.5 32-bit) for the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN directly from the Intel Web site at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Wireless+Networking&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+WiFi+Products&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Wireless+WiFi+Link+4965AGN. The map didn't always work with a driver.

    In addition to the pilots, I also downloaded a tool of diagnosis of Intel (Intel® PROSet /?) Utility of WiFi wireless connection for Windows Vista 32 -? Bit). Said diagnostic tool the WiFi card is not installed or enabled, however, Device Manager maintains that he is also installed and active.

    Is there a problem that causes Device Manager to say that all is well with the card, but does not map to realize that they diminish the radio signals? Everything's fine, diagnostic, it just does not detect networks around him. Help, please.

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Qosmio F10: Driver Installation does not detect the wireless network card

    I wonder if anyone can help before I phone supported again. My motherboard is dead and ASP replaced and recovered my laptop qosmio F10. Since having back, my wireless card did not work.

    Windows detects a "network controller" whenever it starts and gives me the opportunity to install it. I tried to install it by navigating in the 'tools and utilities' records CD rom for folders and subfolders of "Wireless network driver" and it still does not detect the card.

    I also tried to install using the cd rom web gui and selected the 'Pilot wireless network' link and then tried to install it. It opens a dos command prompt and try to install but comes up with the error "failed installation.

    I ran the customer service and they told me to run the qosmio recovery/then recovery of product/recovery of qosmio and again...

    I still don't the card wireless not yet installed. This happened to someone else?

    I tried already shot the drivers from the web, but with no luck... If a representative of customer service with the help of good technical knowledge that would be great, or if someone has encountered the problem too and he had fixed to the give me some advice...

    Thank you very much

    Sean

    Hello

    you see the card wireless as an unknown device in Device Manager? If this is not the case, perhaps that the card was not properly installed after replacing the motherboard.

    Go to the store and buy an optical drive. They are very expensive. No, you cannot use the optical drive of your laptop. You can possibly create a bootable USB key with a distribution of Linux on it and copy the correct boot hard disk files. I say "may" because not all older computers can boot from a USB device. Look in your BIOS to see if your computer has this capability. If he can:

    http://www.pendrivelinux.com

    If you have not backed up your data, then you have trouble. While you're at the store also buy an external hard drive. You can start the computer with a Linux Live CD (in your new optical drive), and copy the files on the external hard drive. Then you can continue to try to repair your computer.

  • can not detect the iphone after upgrading 12.5.1.21

    Set to update to the latest version of itunes (12.5.1.21) and now itunes does not detect my iphone.  tried to remove the lockdown folder. tried to restart all devices.

    Windows 10 with all updates installed. Someone at - it suggestions?

    If your iOS device does not appear in iTunes, try the following:

    1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager
    2. Plug in your device
    3. Locate Bus USB Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
      It is also possible that the device may appear under imaging devices, portable devices or other devices or as a device USB of MTB.
    4. Right-click and select software update of the driver...
    5. Click Browse my computer for driver software
    6. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers or
      C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    7. Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
    8. Click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
    9. Click Next, then close and exit the Device Manager

    To step 3 above, open the Device Manager. Expand one of the articles that are listed.

    • USB Bus controllers
    • Imaging devices
    • Portable devices
    • Other devices

    Plug in the appliance. You should hear the telltale Windows sound device connection and a Division must acquire a new entry. This should be your device. It cannot be labelled properly at this point. If you do not hear a suspicious noise cable damaged.

    Or try If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support Apple version of the above opinion.

    If not try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes in accordance with the resolution of the problems with iTunes for Windows updates. 64-bit users might also try the alternate build Download iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) , which is sometimes a useful workaround.

    Or try to go back to the last version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the programs installation of iTunes to download links. If you're back 12.5.1.21 to 12.4.3.1 or 12.4.2.4, for example, then you will also need to restore the database of the library using the method described in the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library. The tip makes suggestions to reintroduce recent purchases, so at worst, you lose a few meters or a newly created playlist.

  • Does not detect the hdmi cable more (very specific scenario)

    Well then...

    Got a monitor 15-HD to hdmi cable and a mac laptop (13 in the retina).

    So when I got all that I put it all together and it worked. I left because there a little bit, everything is plugged in and did not return for some time, so my mac fell asleep at the time wherever I went. Disconnected everything to relax on the couch. I went back and all plugged together again except that now the mac does not detect the cable. Tried a bunch of things with it. Restart, unplug the unit, detection manually, etc...

    Since the monitor is used and recently purchased cable, I thought time to them to test first. Got a laptop PC and plugged into the cable. The monitor and cable worked.

    Tried to connect my mac to the TV with my ps4′s hdmi since I did that a lot before. Also works.

    The problem is literally the combination between the cable and the mac. Which is a problem since I got the reason was to serve as my mac.

    During my research, I saw that specifically leaving the connected hdmi where sleeps your laptop can spoil it supposed to be... I saw it one time so idk if it's true, but it happened to me... and no, it wasn't really a solution when I came across that. Tried Googling this specific problem, but did not meet anything since my problem seems so specific.

    Fast forward to the next day and tried again now that both had little respite between them. Plugged into the HDMI and my laptop starts fading and return to a black screen. The screen would go black usually and so the laptop screen and the monitor would appear once again. sauf_que this time that there not, he just kept it and the monitor has not changed (Yes) it's). Not wanting to let him do that too long I unplugged and tried a different port with an adapter, I have also, since I did 3 holes I could use this for might as well try them all again. But unfortunately, I don't have it trigger anything again. So I went through another round of troubleshooting to try to make it work, but here I am, trying to see if anyone else has had this problem and solved. I am back to wait another day I guess and just hope. If not idk what to do, except maybe to get another cable? I don't know if this would solve it well.

  • Wk2 will not detect the HDD on Portege 3480CT

    Hi all, been tring this for 2 days now and I have no idea. I want to install win2k on 3480CT but the win2k installation does not detect the hard drive... It will detect WinXP, win98 detects...

    I have the latest version of the bios, I start to think win2k is in need of a driver for the reader, but I'm not finding.

    Help...

    As mentioned for install the W2k you n t need additional drivers.
    I also recommend the HARD whole disk formatting and delete all partitions.

    In addition, you must use an original CD of Microsoft W2k. I read on the net that some people wanted to use the copy of the CD W2k, but this CD is not bootable.

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your problem of alignment.

    If it is still bubbling even with the native driver, test by using other headphones. If still no luck then probably hardware failure. Contact technical support for warranty repair.

    If it works fine with the native driver, then the Realtek driver is buggy. Try a different version of the driver. If you need help with this answer comes back with the full model name (something like "Inspiron 11 3147", etc.) and which operating system there.
