Monitor Not Recognized After SP1 Upgrade

Mar 27, 2008

My monitor not being detected after the SP1 upgrade.During the upgrade, the New Device Was found dialog came up and started looking for my monitor (Sony GDM-W900). It couldn't find it so I told it "Don't ask me again"Well, everything seemed OK until I tried to assign a profile to the monitor.The monitor was not present in the Color management settings.So, I went to the device manager and in there there was no monitor installed at all. I tried scan for new hardware and the monitor still didn't appear.I turned off the monitor and turned it on and scanned for new devices and still it did not show up.I then plugged in another monitor and it found it and installed it properly.Plugging the original monitor back in, results in No monitor in the device manager.If I select Scan for new hardware but not click it, and then turn off my monitor and then click the button, It detects hardware.If I then turn on my monitor, a monitor is in the Device Manager and it is a Generic Non Plug and Play monitor.This works, but at the next boot up, it goes back to seeing no monitor.Thus, having once told Vista "Don't ask again" it now never recognises that my monitor is plugged in (actually it probably does but does nothing).I know there are drivers available for my monitor. If I enablwe the display of old devices in the device manager I can update my GDM W900 driver from the internet with no problems.How do I get Vista to recognize that my monitor is plugged in now? Ot alternatively, how do I get Vista to ask my again for my monitor? I, have been with Vista since RC1 days.

Monitor No Longer Detected After SP1 Upgrade

Mar 27, 2008

I have a nasty problem with my monitor not being detected after the SP1 upgrade. During the upgrade, the New Device Was found dialog came up and started looking for my monitor (Sony GDM-W900). It couldn't find it so I told it "Don't ask me again" Well, everything seemed OK until I tried to assign a profile to the monitor. The monitor was not present in the Color management settings.

So, I went to the device manager and in there there was no monitor installed at all. I tried scan for new hardware and the monitor still didn't appear. I turned off the monitor and turned it on and scanned for new devices and still it did not show up.......

Added A Second Monitor To The GeForce 7100 GS Using A DVI-VGA Adapter And For The Life Of Me Cannot Get It To Display Anything, The Monitor Is Just In Sleep Mode

Apr 23, 2010

I added a second monitor to the GeForce 7100 GS using a DVI-VGA adapter and for the life of me cannot get it to display anything, the monitor is just in sleep mode. I've got the latest driver, Windows is up to date, checked the cables, tried another adapter, tried everything but, still nothing. The second monitor shows up in the device manager and in the Nvidia control panel. It's enabled and set to extend desktops. It seems the system knows it's there because I can move the mouse over, but cannot see anything. The power light on the second monitor just flashes. I've swapped monitors over, to make sure there's not a problem with the display and it's fine. When I do that, the main monitor is then plugged in to the DVI adapter and then that one goes to sleep. Just seems whichever monitor is plugged in to the DVI-VGA adapter just doesn't want to work........

USB Not Recognized

May 12, 2009

I had internet for a whole day when all of a sudden my connection was gone. At first I thought it could of been that the usb stick is broken, so I went out and got a new one. Plugged that one in and the same thing happens.

Every time I plug it into my pc I hear the sound that Vista makes when a device is not recognized. I installed all the drivers and everything was working fine 2 days ago. I'm now using my old usb connector and it's working great. I tried all the usb connectors but all of them make the sound when a device is not recognized.

DVD Not Recognized

Aug 9, 2009

I placed a DVD in the tray to do a backup. The spindle spins for 5 seconds and stops. The system does not recognize that a DVD is in the tray. CD's are OK. I probably inadvertently changed something in the past weeks while trouble shooting another problem.

DVD Not Recognized For Installation

Mar 23, 2008

I had been running Vista since it came out last year with no compatible issues at all. However, there were several issues with performance and finally late last year I gave up and went back to XP. Now that the SP1 is available, I want to go back and install Vista, but for some reason, my computer won't recognize the disc. It trys, but just can't load it. I've tried other DVDs and have burned a couple and they all work fine. For whatever reason, the problem is with the Vista DVD.

IDE Drive Not Recognized.

Mar 13, 2009

I have an Ultra ATA 100 drive that will not install in BIOS or Vista 32 ultimate OS. I have support on my motherboard for 66/100/133 pata (as well as sata II). I have all dated drivers for the motherboard. I'm using VIA's Hyperion Pro drivers. I think my problem is setting jumpers in the drive. I've tried the drive on both primary master and slave, and secondary primary and slave buses. I've also tried the drive in combinations of 2 HDD and 1 HDD, 1 dvd rom. I've set the jumper to cable select, master, and no jumper with no results. However, the drive works in an AMD box running XP 32. The HDD it is not working in is Vista 32 sp1 ultimate. As it is now i have the HDD on the same secondary bus as my dvd rom. The HDD is set to master, and not showing up anywhere. The drive is a Maxtor 40gb.

USB Device Not Recognized...

Feb 28, 2009

I'm troubleshooting a friends computer and can'tseem to get it working.Basically, he's running Vista Home Prem 32bit. He just bought a new Canon MP480 inkjet printer and everytime he plugs it into his laptop he gets the "USB Device Not Recognized". I tested his printer and cable on my laptop (Vista Ultimate 64bit) and it IDs the printer and tries to install just fine. We're both running SP1 and I just did a double check and I we're both fully up-to-date on Windows update.I've tried uninstalling the USB hardware and then doing new install of the Intel chipset drivers.I've tried "forcing" the driver install using "driver update", but Vista just comes back and says "Driver for "unknown device" currently has the best driver confused I've tried draining the laptops power and I've tried a "driver inf cache" delete thing as well.

Install DVD Not Recognized

May 5, 2008

The disc can be read by a similar model machine. Mine can both read and boot from an XP install disc, but the Vista DVD isn't seen at all (not within XP nor on bootup). There are no firmware updates for the motherboard or drive which are more recent than what's already installed.

USB Device Not Recognized ...

May 14, 2008

I have been using a Trust 7 Port USB Hub with Vista SP1, using the built in Vista driver, without issue. However, Vista has suddenly started to report this has 'USB Device Not Recognized'. The hub works with XP and other USB devices work fine when plugged into the same port. I have tried deleting the infcache.1 file as suggested in other threads but no joy.

USB Device Not Being Recognized

Mar 23, 2008

My flash drive and my picture device are not being recognized when I plug into my front USB ports. The wireless keyboard/mouse is in a USB port right next to it and that works. I even unplugged that thinking maybe it was a "power" issue. I am a novice, why won't my USB devices work, nothing comes up when I plug them in, just a "bleep" sound but NOTHING else.

CD And DVD Discs Not Recognized

Mar 23, 2008

I have searched the forums through and through, i have removed filters from the registry, rebooted, deleted the driver from device manager and let the system reinstall. When I put a disc in my drive, autoplay does not start or anything. I have checked the autoplay settings and they all seem to be correct. I can put a music CD in and go to Media Player and play the CD. but when I go to my computer and open the drive it doesn't show any files. this is not just for music cd's, it is dvd's, programs and everything. My drive is the Optiard AD-7653 (that is how it is listed in the device manager)

USB Devices Not Recognized .. Checked Everything

Mar 23, 2008

Vista stopped recognizing my installed USB devices yesterday. System restore, Last Known Good Config and reinstalling the device drivers have not corrected the problem. Also did a registry clean and repair. Tried renaming INFCACHE.1 to INFCACHE.1.bak. Tried the hotfix mentioned in a similar post. Ran a registry scan and repair.

Devices include memory stick, webcam, printer, wireless KB and mouse. USB ports have power, and Vista sees new hardware when its is plugged in, but always sees it as unknown device and cannot find or install drivers. All devices worked fine 2 days ago..........

Games DVD Not Recognized For Installation

Mar 11, 2009

I'm trying to install Age of Conan. When I place DVD in the drive it makes a repetitive sound and does not appear to spin up. DVD is not recognized by system: no pop up window, explorer indicates there is no DVD in rom. I place AoC in a second machine (running XP Pro) and install screen appears. I have installed OS & Office with the rom and placed a CIV IV DVD in drive and that installation started.(i.e. I believe the rom works)
