Error: Device Driver Software Was Not Successfully Installed
Jan 28, 2013
Most times when I start my machine or just turn on my monitors (the Windows Display setting is set to turn off at 20 minutes, sleep is set to Never), I find that Windows is installing software. Sometimes it's successful, sometimes it fails.I see others have had this issue, but the offered remedies (reinstall drivers) did not work (I consider I may not have done it properly).? How can I get Windows to install the software correctly and then stop attempting to re-install the software?(Below is the text of the message I get.)

I have an Acer R3610 (so everything is via USB). When I plug in an I/O Magic disk drive, I get an error "Device driver software was not successfully installed".I had earlier tried to fix this situation by going to Device Manager and deleting all drivers under USB controllers. When I rebooted everything re-installed except for USB Mass Storage Device.
When trying to install my USB cable modem (Scientific Atlanta DPC2100R2), I'm always getting a popup message that says "Device Driver Software was not Successfully Installed." I don't even get a "Found New Hardware" message beforehand. I just switched over to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit from Windows XP today, and the modem was working fine earlier (when I was using XP).
When I put the Setup disk that came with my modem, AutoPlay will play it, but I can't set up anything that way. If I go through Device Manager to try and update the driver, I get a message along the lines of "Windows could not find updates." I even get this message when I manually direct it to my D: drive where the disk is.
I've even tried uninstalling the driver from Device Manager, unplugging the USB from my PC, restarting it, and then plugging the USB back in, but I still get the same error.
It really shouldn't be the modem, as it was working fine earlier and I am even using it right now as I type this on my other PC (that runs Windows XP) and it's working fine. Would anyone happen to know how to remedy this?
When I plug in my ipod to any of the USB ports I get "Device driver software was not successfully installed." I followed all the itunes / ipod troubleshooting and no luck. I updated drivers and unintalled them and still no luck. I am getting this error with two seperate ipods, i restored one back to the factory settings and still nothing. All other devices (camera, thumb drive, etc.) work in these USBs.I have a 32 bit windows seven.
if i am playing league of legends i am getting an error named 'display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered'.. dont know how to fix this.. i tryed newest patch but still it is not fixed, i tryed older versions but still no succes.. uninstalled the game and installed it but that dont work either.. i got a GeForce GTX 260 oc.
Every now and then my WiFi stops working, and if I go to dev mgr, the General tab tells me that "No drivers are installed for this device" for device status. On the other tabs, however, I have all the details on the installed driver, and if I ask Windows to update the driver, it tells me that the best driver is already installed. The problem is solved by rebooting, but I find that annoying. I'd like to figure out WHY it does that. I've saved earlier versions of that particular driver from over the last three years, and the problem occurs with all of the drivers. This is a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit system. The driver is an Intel driver; the one installed at this moment (it just happened again, and I have not rebooted, since I had a powerline enet outlet handy), and the version of the Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN is 14.3.1. I have other versions of that driver saved, from 13.2.1.5 to 15.1.1_Ds64. I had reverted to the 14.3.1 because the more recent versions seemed to be worse about the driver disabling itself or whatever it is doing.Coincidentally with this, the event viewer shows that mmc.exe was terminated because it was hanging. I had just run sfc yesterday, and there are no corrupt files that Windows cannot fix, and there weren't even any corrupt files that it DID fix.
Can anyone help me with installing Canon Lide 25 Scangear, in Windows 7. I've downloaded the software, which is in a zip file, and unzipped it to a folder. When I run the setup, it seems to run, but nothing happens. Has anyone successfully installed Canon software on Windows 7?
Why Windows won't apply my updates. I'm running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I attempt to install my updates but after refreshing the Windows Update program it says they installed successfully but is still offering the the same updates. I've ran Microsoft FixYa from their website to no avail. The updates giving me problems are:
Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2676562) Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2709715) Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2679255)
My comp is having some audio problems. Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit. It says i have no audio playback device installed? One or more audio service isn't running? Both the windows audio and the windows audio end point builder services must be running for audio to work correctly. At least one of these services isn't running? It says I dont have a playback device installed?
No devices displayed when I open playback devices.? How do I get a device or install a driver to fix the problem. In services both windows audio and windows audio endpoint aren't started. When I turn on windows audio i get error 1068: the dependency service or group failed to start. When I turn on windows audio endpoint builder I get error 1084: this service cannot be started in safe mode sound doesn't work no audio at all. I don't have a restore point. I can only boot up in safe mode with networking.
I am having an error with my speakers, it says no audio device is installed, I did directX diagnostic tool test and it says I have no sound card installed...
How to install some software. Tried to download the "chipset" but obviously didnt do it properly. The pop up reads..."Device driver not successfully installed" the list that followed was.."Intel(R) ICH9 Family USB Host Controller 2934"

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a problem, namely that Windows Backup doesn't seem to be working atm. When I try to backup, no matter what the files or destination drive, I get the error "the backup did not complete successfully" during the "creating volume shadow copy" phase. When "troubleshooting options" pops up, it says "The requested system device cannot be found" and gives error code 0x80073BC3.
It worked until recently, I have no idea what caused the problem I haven't updated my hardware or anything.
When I try to use the "Turn Windows features on or off" function to add or remove anything I get "An error has occurred. Not all of the features were successfully changed." I need to remove Microsoft .net framework 3.5.1

I got an 8 gb Crucial ram card and when I put it in my 2011 Acer Aspire and started it there was a blue window saying that there was a driver problem, how can I fix this?
I have a brand new Dell XPS8500 running Windows 7 Ultimate x64. When trying to play online games, I keep getting this message:Display driver AMD driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered.The browser (Chrome) freezes up, the screen goes black, the error message pops up, the browser goes completely white and I have to go into task manager and kill it.I tried getting a screen shot but could not.
I recently bought an infrared webcam [generic] from China. Cheap and easy. Turns out that it "encountered an error" when I installed the driver. Before I bought it, I didn't know that it was for 32-bit Windows (they failed to inform me). Is there a way to emulate a 32-bit application on a 64-bit system??? Or a way I can fool the driver to make it work? Or even tamper with it to do so? And, if that won't work; does that mean that the device only works on 32-bit system and would never operate on a 64-bit one? I tried the webcam and driver on a 32-bit laptop and it worked fine. So they device isn't faulty.
i have a problem with my usb mass storage.my usb ports read usb mouse,data cables but they do not read pen drives and as i attach a pd,it shows "usb device not recognized" or "device driver not installed". it was working fine in xp but now in win 7 it doesn't. i have installed all drivers and have tried every software but it doesn't work.
I have had this Display Driver has stopped responding and has recovered successfully error ever since I have purchased my HD 7770. I contacted HIS and they told me to disable ULPS. I have but it still crashes. The speeds of the card have not been touched and temps when Idle are 27-30c.
I cannot even render a video in Sony Vegas Pro without it getting the error. when that happens vegas pro crashes and i must start the render again. other times are in games.
Counter Strike Source crashes when I get the MOTD (message of the day) or I select to buy weapons. if i start the game again its all fine?!?!
I have a 700w CoolerMaster eXtreme Power Plus Catalyst 12.4 (most stable I have tried 12.6) CCC overdrive settings. Core: Default Mem: default Power +20 for extra headroom
Right for a while i've been suffering from a problem where whilst playing certain PC games (i.e. Empire Total War, Battlefield Bad Company 2 & even Spore) the game begins showing black screens followed by a complete crash of the game, me having to ctrl+alt+delete it and be given this message at the bottom right of my PC ("Display Driver nvidia Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 301.42 stopped responding and has successfully recovered").
Recently I reformatted my HD and clean install win 7 ultimate 32 bit on my computer, bcuz of some problems when booting up, took like forever to boot or 2 to 3 restarts..At first BIOS cant detect my HD so I taught its a hardware issue I did like changing the sata cable also took it to a technician TWICE! maybe the sata port was broken they check all the connection, the last one did fix it but im still having difficulty booting up..He said one last option reformat, so i did reformat it successfully from win xp, now it boots up just fine its running good no problem for like a week yeah just 1 week!. Now my pc has new problem or is it?? Whenever I used it 2 to 3 hours my pc hangs so much even just opening event viewer would take me 5 to 10 mins and 2 errors always flood event viewer the first time i saw it disk error reach 5231 and nvistor32 reach 5366 errors, right now as I am writing this, Disk error reach a waaping 23,145 total. I think this is a serious problem that needs some fixing.
