No Networking After Windows 7 Lite Strip Down?
Apr 18, 2011
I decided that I wanted this cheap dell laptop to run faster, so I used a tool to "strip down" my windows 7 32bit. It worked stupendously well. Everything seems two or three times as fast now as it was before.
BUT, I now have no wifi access. I confirmed that the wifi drivers are installed. They register as "working properly" but I am not finding ANY wifi signals. The problem is within the computer somewhere. Other computers in my home find 5 or 6 signals (as this one used to). The strip down tool also removed the network diagnostics feature of windows 7, so I am without recourse.
I am, however, able to connect to the internet through my iphone (pdanet) being directly connected to my laptop.

I have bought an HP 625 Laptop with Windows 7 Home 64bit. Having trouble connecting my vmc K3565 rev 2 dongle. Says device drive software installed successfully but when clicking on connect button says: Mobile connections not possible ensure that no other programs are using your selected device. Dongle works ok on my WXP machine.

I have 2 versions of windows; 7 Home Premium and Ultimate ...both are 64 Bit.
I have a Lite-On eSAU108 Black Slim External DVD Burner which works flawlessly on my laptop running windows Ultimate 64Bit. I just built myself a new system and wanted to use my external dvd burner rather than an internal drive
When i plug the burner into my rear usb 2.0 ports on my home premium version of windows 7 i have installed on my desktop it wont even detect the eSAU108 USB burner!
My initial thought is that I have a driver issue. Im fully updated with all my hardware except the motherboard BIOS and windows 7 home premium is fully updated.

I downloaded QT Lite to play my .MOV files and it doesn't show in Right Click > "Open With". Only the Configuration Settings and Uninstall are in Start > Programs. The application is listed in Program Files (x86) but when I double click the application nothing happens.
I was a bit surprised when it didn't add or give the option to add a desktop icon or shortcut. But it seems as though the app has not installed properly. But I downloaded it from: |MG| QT Lite 4.1.0 Download which is the main site.
I have tried it three times now, and I can't get it to work, even though I just installed it with the everything it suggested during the Install Wizard. I opened the Configuration settings and don't understand any of them, so I don't know what to check or uncheck.

since build 7068 I've been facing this problem with this network adapter, will try to explain as good as I can.
Problem as following: Everytime I start the pc after one or two minutes I lost my internet connection and when I try to restart the pc it hangs when shutting pc is showed, forcing me to shut it down only whit the power button.
I have tried to install the vista x64 driver that I have for this network adapter but cannot installed since is onlyfor vista x64, neither in compatibilty mode. After a few research managed to installed it via safe mode. and by now is working good but device manager shows a warning icon and a Cannot start device code 10.
any knows is theres a win 7 update driver?? can I just keep ignoring the code 10 till this bug is fixed??

I just recently installed 7 64bit over my Vista 64 bit (ultimate) and everything is great so far, except neither of my optical drives are available.
Lite-On DVDRW SOHW-1693S
MSI CD-RW CR52
I initially got an error on both drives for "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. (code 52)"
Both listed the cdrom.sys driver but also the unsigned file GEARAspiWDM.sys in the windowssystem32 directory.
I figured I'd rename the GEAR file and uninstall/reinstall the drivers for the optical drives, but it just tells me that it loaded cdrom.sys but can't load any device driver for the hardware.
Device manager shows them with yellow caution tales and lists both reasons as "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing (code 39)
On the driver details tab both show C:windowssystem32cdrom.sys as the driver and it shows it as signed.

have a LiteOn DVD-RW model iHAS122-18 B that i have been using in a non-oem usb enclosure without any problems for several weeks now. But as it is i couldn't leave things alone because the write quality was rather crappy and so i flashed it with firmware from a (electronically identical but with more feature) LiteOn model iHAS524 B. Now i have a big problem it no longer works well on USB enclosure. it does work perfectly internally, on SATA cable but on USB when i insert a disk in it the computer locks.

Quote: Acronis International has released a beta version of True Image Lite 2013, a stripped-down version of its True Image backup tool.The new release ditches disk, partition, email and file backup types, for instance (there�s non-stop backup and online backup only). There are no full or differential backups (just incremental). No scheduling, no backups to CDs, DVDs or Blu-ray, no option to create a bootable recovery disc, and of course none of the extensive settings you�ll find in the full True Image package.

Both are connected to the internet VIA wireless connection. ( router in room mates room ) I have both computers connected together via a cross over cable also.

i am quite disappointed to see the lack of support for Microsoft's Virtual PC networking configurations. If there is anyone that can help me with this,I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 as primary OS installed. I have also installed Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (not Windows XP Mode). Inside this virtual machine, I have installed Windows XP Professional (x86). I need to have the Windows XP connect to Windows 7 via networking. According to most threads, I need to install Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Win 7 to be able to connect the VM to Win 7. I have configured the loopback adapter (on Win 7) to use IP 192.168.1.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. On the virtual machine, I have set the LAN connection to use IP 192.168.1.2, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. No connection.

Sorry but I'm sure this is now old hat. I've been networking PCs successfully since DOS 2 days but Windows 7 has me ****ed.
I have two PCs running XP and a BT router both work well but have just bought my wife an HP Netbook running Windows 7. I have set up the network 4 times but everytime I restart the Netbook all settings are lost, the shared printer and doc folders are not there and with the exception of a Windows Media folder on the XP desktop NOTHING is visible.
I suspect that it will take at least two hours to set it all up again but if anyone can give me a quick fix or tell me why it can't remember anything, or even the name of some network software that works, you'll be my friend for life!

I have 4 computers on my home network. Laptop runs Win 7 Pro; Storm runs Win 7 Ultimate; S-Mach runs Win7 Ultimate (64 bit); AMD64 runs Win 2K. All have the same login and password. Win 7 machines have network discovery turned on. All in the same workgroup.
Laptop sees all machines but can't access S-Mach. It can access all others.
S-Mach sees all machines and can access all drives and folders.
Storm see only Laptop and can access it. Network map shows S-Mach but it does not show up in Network.
AMD64 sees Laptop and can access it; nothing else.
All machines are set up for sharing with full control permission to Everyone.
When I try to access Storm from AMD64 I get the error, "Network path is not found"
Any suggestions?

I'm looking for some assistance to the above problem I'm having with my desktop. I am unable to connect to the net through this PC, however, the net connection is working fine as I am currently connected wirelessly via my laptop. The icon on the tool bar has a red cross indicating that I'm not connected, when I click on the icon it tells me no connections are available. When I try to connect to the net via the PC through the control panel, a message pops up saying' Windows did not detect any networking hardware'. When I try and acces the basic information and set up connection page, a msg states 'The dependency service or group failed to start.

Can Windows 7 change the perception that Windows Firewall is security you use until you install protection that actually does something?
Like Rodney Dangerfield, Windows Firewall just don't get no respect. It didn't evolve appreciably in the transition from XP to Vista. It does its simple job well, but its lack of ambition makes it a punching bag for reviews of other, better personal firewalls. I can't tell you how many times I've written sentences along the lines of, "Sure, Product X stealths all your ports against hack attack, but heck, even Windows Firewall can do that." Good news: It looks as if Windows 7 will pull the firewall out of its slump. Some new features are visible and functional even in the pre-beta I've got running on my test system, and there's a tantalizing suggestion of more to come.
Hangin' with My HomeGroup
The firewall exists to protect your network, and Windows 7 starts by making it easier to configure that all-important home network. When users hit network problems, they curse the firewall—and they're often right to. Windows 7 addresses the problem by taking over home network setup and making sure the firewall doesn't interfere.

I was trying to overclock my computer using clockgen and then after I closed the program, I noticed that my Internet had a red x sign on it. I troubleshoot it and it said that Windows did not detect any networking hardware. I went to Device Manager and I saw a Unknown Device below Other devices. I check the Details of that Uknown device and it said *SysToolDevice. Yes, I tried SysTool this morning and it didn't work, so I decided to delete it.

i just bought a dell latitude D40 which has win 7 starter installed for the OS. i have 3 other pc's all networked (home network) together and all have win xp prof. i would like to network the the dell (win 7 starter) to the other 3 computers but after doing some research i find that one of the pc's on the network must have win 7 for an OS.just to be sure i'm understanding correctly, is this true ? I'm probably going to have to reformat and reinstall windows on one of the pc's on the network pretty soon. when i reinstall windows, could i install win 7 starter or would i need to install the full blown version(so that i can network the laptop to the other 3 already on the home network

The other night I had noticed that the sound, networking, and USB drivers have failed on my laptop. I ran a full system virus scan on my comp, but nothing came up as malicious. Anyone know how to resolve this issue? I would prefer not to reformat my hard drive at all costs.

I just switch to Windows 7 last week. It's Windows 7 Home Basic Edition.In my old XP, there's a green networking icon at right bottom corner, when there's traffic, it flashes. This icon is useful when i downloading large file so i can tell that if the downloading is still active. In Windows 7 i don't see that green flashing icon?second question. I have an old TV card, when I plug in, Windows 7 installed driver automatically.. so driver has been installed.. but how to watch TV? the TV card comes with an application that is not compatible with Windows 7
