Answer» I was given a computer by my friend and naturally I reformatted it to get rid of all the crap. The reformat went fine install windows, fine, but here's where I run into issues. It's a presario 6000 6330ca with an msi motherboard and intel chip and I don't have any of the disks it came with and there for none of the drivers and cannot get it hooked up to the internet, I think I'm missing drivers because I cannot create an internet connection and none of my usb ports are working properly. I've been to the HP website and I've tried downloading drivers but it fails every time just WONT connect to the download, plus I don't think it's what I'm looking for ANYWAYS. PLEASE HELP ME!! I've been trying all day to find the right drivers or even a driver that can get me hooked up to the net but I come up dry everytime if anyone has any info on this at all please let me know.

Solve : Driver / CD ROM Does not Play XP Pro? |
Answer» I just formatted my PC with XP Pro. The CDRW Drive was not playing anything for months, it did work at one time. although it appeared in Device Manager and said " Device is WORKING Properly" so I tried a format & reinstall. in Windoze, I even added that .reg keyYou're suppose to remove, not add registry keys.You gave me the link for CDGONE.ZIP to add the registry KEY, or did it remove keys? Anyway I did what you said and still no joy Right click the drive in Device Manager and remove it...you will get a warning message ...ignore it and re-boot. See if the drive works now...if not move it to another machine to confirm it has passed on...Quote You gave me the link for CDGONE.ZIP to add the registry KEY, or did it remove keys?Oh, I thought about solution #1. Sorry.Quote from: patio on April 05, 2008, 08:45:05 AM Right click the drive in Device Manager and remove it...you will get a warning message ...ignore it and re-boot. I already tried that, no luck, the drive works, patio because I used it to reinstall XP Pro, but once XP is reinstalled it wont read any disks even tho it there as Drive F:\. Is there a way to add it to the Autoexec.bat or is that obsolete in Win XP PRO?? This is my friends PC who is having this prob, now thinking about it he had the same prob with another CD Drive in this same machine, (even tho I know that drive worked ok too) so we replaced it with this one and it worked fine, but that was some time ago now and SINCE the last two formats it shows up but wont read any disks in XP... even tho it allowed me to reinstall the system with this Drive, very strange it then wont read any disks now Any ideas ?? What else could be causing this issue, do you know please help, thanksThe only way to check the drive is to try it in another computer. |

Solve : Can't Access BIOS? |
Answer» Not sure where I should post this, so I'm posting it here. Anyway, I have an Intel D945GCNL MOBO, with Intel NL94510J.86A BIOS. The problem is I can't access it. It worked fine a couple of months ago when I was running Windows Vista Home Premium. The stupid computer crashed when I attempted to INSTALL a wireless NIC. I couldn't get it back up and running for the longest time. Well the other day I did get it to work again with Windows Xp, and it runs fine. The problem is like I said, I can't access the BIOS. Hey, even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while... Sorry I haven't gotten back lately, been out of state to my brother's wedding. Anyway, I'm using a Mircosoft wireless keyboard. A Mutimedia Keyboard 1.0A to be exact. The POINT is that I used the same one before when I set the computer up with Vista. Somehow this all started when the computer crashed and I tried to install XP on it instead, and it wouldn't detect any DRIVES. I used a boot CD and ran some different diagnostic software, such as ones you would find on Hiren's Boot CD. Anyway, I'd have to check, but one program said it detected my drive. That's when I attempted to reinstall XP, and for some reason it worked. Though now like I mentioned I can't access the BIOS anymore. I can try a different keyboard, though I don't think that's the problem. Though I guess that's why it's called troubleshooting.Yes, get a good old-fashioned keyboard that doesn't depend upon drivers being loaded first, and I bet you'll be able to get to the BIOS. Aegis, you are probably 100% right about the keyboard deal, though I don't have any extra lying around. However, I did solve my problem, and now I FEEL stupid. Apparently my keyboard has a F Lock key on it. So, I pressed it and tried again, and it worked. All that frustration over one little key. Thanks for everybody who helped me with this.No worries -- I have a keyboard with a similar F lock -- it's goten me in trouble in other ways -- I didn't think of the lock, because it's not the keyboard I'm using right now. Thank you for posting your problem resolution -- it always helps to see / learn the fix for a problem. |

Solve : Out of date drivers? |
Answer» Some of my drivers are out of date where can I get up to date drivers to replace them. It's generally best to go to the manufacturers' sites for drivers. For example, if you need to update an NVIDIA video card, then STOP by nVidia's site. Do you already know which drivers you want to update?Also, if COMPUTER works OK, leave it alone.Thanks both, the pc is working ok so I will leave it aloneQuote from: Broni on May 21, 2008, 08:33:46 PM Also, if computer works OK, leave it alone. Very sound ADVICE. If it ain't broke, don't FIX it. |

Solve : how to remove camera driver from control panel? |
Answer» HI, This is my first time posting here, so please bear with me if I don't do it just right. First of all, I have a HP Pavilion Windows XP Service Pack 2 computer. Under Control Panel in Add or Remove, there is something that just says "Camera Driver." I would like to remove it, but when I click on Change/Remove, nothing happens. I had a couple of digital cameras connected before and am getting a new camera. I would like to remove this before I connect the new one. Anyone know how I can remove it? Thank you wel if you are unable to uninstall it from the Add/Remove button try to uninstall it by double clicking the installation setup ( the exe from where you have installed the files). I hate to appear stupid, but where would I find the installation set up? I ran a search on Camera Driver, but could not find anything CALLED that. I have no idea what program installed it. Thank you for your help.wel ther would be a Setup FILE for the camera drivers which you hav installed when U connected your camera to the p.c for the first time. So i am talking about that setup file.I appreciate your help, but I have no idea where that setup file is.Quote when I click on Change/Remove, nothing happensMost likely, it's just empty, leftover listing. Download, and install CCleaner: http://www.ccleaner.com/download/builds. Get "Slim" version. Read CCleaner instruction here: http://www.jahewi.nl/ccleaner/ccleaner.html, and run CCleanerI did run the CC cleaner and it deleted a lot of unecessary files. I'm very leery about downloading stuff like that and running it, because in the past it, or more likely me, has caused big problems on my computer that it took me forever to fix. This one so far has caused no trouble. After I ran it, I shut off my computer, restarted it, ran Outlook Express and the internet, and everything still works. But, Camera Driver is still in my Add/Remove section. Should I just ignore it? I'm only worried because when I connect my new digital camera, I don't want it to cause a PROBLEM. I am REALLY grateful for all the help.CCleaner is very safe program, and it always creates backup, just in case, something goes wrong. You may want to manually remove that entry. The safe way to do it is described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314481You are a genius!!! That removed it. Thank you so much. Glad to help |

Solve : Can't burn/copy to CD-RW or DVD-RW? |
Answer» We just got this new computer in January... first time with a CD/DVD burner! I seem to only be able to burn and/or copy to CD-R and DVD-R... if I PUT in a blank CD-RW or DVD-RW, my computer doesn't recognize it. Our computer is a Systemax. Not sure what other information is needed. It burns and copies great - as long as I use a -R. I'm just wondering if this is a setting I can change, or if this is just the way my system is. I don't mind until it's one of the kids copying a 10-minute PowerPoint for class and then that disc can never be used again... ug. Thanks for any help/information. A few questions... some burners will not recognise -/+rw format only -/+r If this is true it must be a really chintzy player...i have heard this way back when CD was the only format...i have not heard it since.look at the first dvd PLAYERS. tell me if they were -/+rw compatible. i havent looked into that dvd playerTry one of these: 1. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 or... 2. http://aumha.org/downloads/cdgone.zip or... 3. Go to Device Manager, click a "+" sign next to IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers. You'll see two items: - ATA Channel0 (or Primary Channel) - ATA Channel1 (or Secondary Channel) Right click on each of them, and click Uninstal. Confirm. Restart Windows. They'll be automatically reinstalled.Quote from: NOT ADMIN :P on May 13, 2008, 05:35:32 PM look at the first dvd players. tell me if they were -/+rw compatible. What "first" DVD players....and aren't we discussing burners here and not players ? ?Ha...i meant DRIVE. lol easy tiger... have i unleashed a beast from a miscommunication, i HOPE not!! Less than 6 months old it should still be under warranty. It would be time to contact Systemax. |

Solve : Star NX1040 Driver for DOS 6.2? |
Answer» I plan to use a NX1040 that I can get for free to use as a POS receipt printer. I have an old Pentium machine that I can load with the DOS 6.2 system, w/no windows. I will run a Foxpro 2.0 receipt generating program on it for a business. I can get the driver for this printer in Win 3.1 available for download. STAR Micronics told me they don't support that printer any more. It will not run without drivers. Sorry, wrong. Couldn't be more wrong! Manual here for NX-1040 and LC-100 http://www.star-m.jp/eng/service/usermanual/lc100um.pdf Quote This printer has two emulation modes: Standard/Epson mode and IBM In other words, it's a bog-standard early-1990s 9 pin printer that will PRINT from DOS in 40, 80 & 132 column mode without any driver. There are buttons to select features and fonts. DOS itself didn't have drivers. To do fancy stuff, each DOS app shipped with its own set of drivers so you had one with Word Perfect and one with Lotus 1-2-3 (a spreadsheet) and one with Foxpro (a database). Setting Epson LX or one of the IBM Proprinter models will do the trick. Lots of fun finding out what they can do! It will do all kinds of tricks if control codes are used, this is handled for you by the aforementioned "drivers". But you can do it from eg Qbasic. If you have trouble with getting to work with the parallel port, go into the BIOS and monkey with ECP & EPP settings. Well excuse the heck outta me... Quote DOS itself didn't have drivers. Quick name 20 devices you had in your vast experience that ran on DOS without drivers ? ? I clearly meant that printer drivers were not part of DOS. hard drives Floppies cga, ega, vga cards printers and HARDWARE in general (a notable exception would be Soundblaster cards and their clones) could all be handled natively by MS-DOS. The "driver is part of the OS" model came with Windows. |

Solve : Audio Drivers?? |
Answer» Say you are in a situation where have just formatted your PC and then installed a fresh VERSION of the operating system... Naturally you would have to reinstall the drivers, but then you don't have the CD to get them at the moment... When downloading AUDIO drivers for your system, what are you supposed to look at? The Motherboard model? or The Chipset? Thanks in advance... XDYou can do both actually. But the safest THING to do is to visit the MANUFACTURER of the motherboard's website. They will usually have the correct drivers.Or the card manufacturer if it's an add-on sound card... |

What we need to know is what computer part did you install the driver for? *most of the computer parts inside your computer require drivers (software) to communicate with each other* Do you have any cds that came with your computer?? See if any say 'driver' or (version 1.64 etc.) on the lable/cover what were you TRYING to fix or update wen you installed this driver? Or what wasnt working which made you try to fix it? Just try to answer as much as you can so we can eliminate some thingsAlso, can you not boot to safe mode and ROLL back the drivedr to an earlier one? Or use system restore to go back to a time before this faux pas?Quote from: CallMeJustin on April 21, 2008, 01:52:33 AM How do i uninstall the driver? Click start then click run and type in: devmgmt.msc This will take you to Device Manager. Here you see all of your hardware devices and drivers. If you see a yellow or red ! or ? then you need a driver or have the wrong one installed. right click the device that is in question and choose uninstall. The best place to get drivers is usually from your computer manufacturers website. Check it out and see if they have driver downloads |

Solve : sTANDARD VGA driver? |
Answer» i have a problem. whenevr i try to install the VGA driver in my notebook it says "setup was not complete, try to install with a standard VGA driver before running the setup" Why are you trying to install standard VGA driver, not your video card driver? It's something to do with the ATI drivers and this is a very common problem. Some ATI drivers will not install if there is an older ATI driver installed. To the original poster, give me a little bit and I'll prepare some steps for you.First, go to ATI's website and download the LATEST Catalyst driver for your machine. Go into Add/Remove PROGRAMS and remove anything "ATI". Go into the Device Manager (right click My Computer, click properties, click Hardware tab, click Device Manager) and look under "Display Adaptors". Delete any ATI hardware listed there. Restart your computer. After the restart, Windows may detect your video card again and attempt to install a driver for it, cancel this. Install the ATI Catalyst driver you downloaded.i did everything . even i use the driver cleaner in safe mode (disabling antivirus) with cab clear. after that i reinstall the OS . after that how can an old driver be in the system as all REGISTRY settings are new. even after this the display driver adaptor say such error message. in device manager a yellow ? mark device is there (VGA controller) when i uninstall it and reboot system says new hardware found and trying to search the driver but failed . so what can i do further?Formatting the drive was a bit drastic and unnecessary. But now that you've done that, repeat the same procedure as before (remove all ATI software from Add/Remove Programs, remove from Device Manager, etc.) and then download and run the Catalyst removal tool from http://support.ati.com/ics/support/KBAnswer.asp?questionID=1447. After that, restart and try to reinstall the driver.i tried with the catalyst uninstall utility before posting in this forum. should i install the original driver supplied in a CD while purchasing the notebook?Try all of the steps again AND that tool. The tool alone or just uninstall doesn't always work. They need to be done together. |

A close second would be BAD RAM.incorrect. What VIDEO cards are you using?? If they are nvidia. BINGO. I just solved this problem with the same error with my 2 8800GT's running in SLI. SOLUTION: Go to nvidia control panel, (right click* and its in that menu) go to video options or something similar and select that all the option are set to "determine by software/game" If you have any options forced on that the game you are playing does not support that is what crashes your system. Otherwise you may just have to DL a previous version of your video card driver which may not have any problems. Quite often they are not tested fully and people experience that error and revert back to a previous driver until the new one is fixedQuote incorrect.Wow!Im hoping this worked??? wouldnt want to correct Broni and then be wrong I heard he has well developed mind control and can eat your brain thru the internet. :O *all information supplied by quaxo, and he should be punished for anything that i have done wrong* umm- patio never POSTED in this thread irrelevant, I know. and, so far. how would the Nvidia drivers cause a spontaneous reboot? Although windows Loads them it doesn't actually call on them until it gets to the welcome/logon screen.(I think) Also if his computer is fairly old (AMD K6-2, Pentium 2, etc) then essentially any driver software after around 2001 will cause the IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_EQUAL (with my old AMD K6-2, I couldn't play Midi's with the MIDI synthesizer, and god forbid I install ANY Nvidia graphics card...) The key here is what did you install right before this started happening?thanks to the edit function it is now BS_programmer who looks the fool. lol blast u! And it's BC_programmer, no BS, although that would be a neat name. |
