Program Not Recognised In Windows 7?
Jan 27, 2013
I have a problem with an existing program I have had for years. I had the installation program on my disk, but after re installing Win 7 I somehow have lost the installation program. It is an old one and therefore not awailable any more. I have the program installed on an disk partition, buit when clicking on the icon it tells me that window cannot find language.dll.I have the program installed on another Computer running XP, but it is very slow.Is there any way I can get into Window and install the missing file myself. Alternative would be to remove the XP disk from the old computer and install it on the newer computer, but I might get problem with having both XP and Win 7 running on the same computer.

I have a Blu-Ray/DVD drive on my PC (its a brans new PC).When I first start windows up the drive genreally seems to be recognised by windows (i.e. I can see it in windows explorer), however at some point windows stops recognising the DVD drive forcing me to restart the PC if I want to get my DVD out.I realize there is a fix where you change the registry settings, but given that the DVD srive works when I restart the PC I'm not sure that fix if applicable here?

I have got a Epson SX235W. It can be used with either cable or wifi. I have beenunsuccesfull in setting the wireless side up, cable is ok. The laptop does not find it when scanning to look for it during the setup phase. I uninstalled it and run setup again but only tried to do the wireless part and still no joy. The Epson site is no good and does n The WiFi on the computer and printer is switched on and I had the printer on the table beside the laptop so distance apart was not an issue. I have read that I need to go to register the mac address with the computer but dont know how to do this or even find the mac address for the printer.

I have a Maxtor 500GB stand alone hard drive which I originally bought for a Vista laptop, but have also been using it on my new Windows 7 laptop.It has been absolutely fine for the 6 months that I've been on Windows 7, but today Windows Update decided that I needed 27 (count 'em!) updates to be installed an run - mostly for MS Office.

I have a new computer running Windows 7 Home Premium and a new laptop with the same o/s.
I have a new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX150 and an old Canon camera.
According to Panasonic the driver for their camera is incorporated in 7. I tried the canon and there was no problem downloading.
The Lumix down loads perfectly on the laptop without any drivers being added.
When I try to download the Lumix to the computer all I get is
"one of the usb devices has malfunctioned and windows does not recognise it"
When I check the message it says "Unknown device. (check connections) If windows still does not recognise it replace the device"
Why does it work with the laptop and not the computer? Panasonic are no help once I said it worked on the laptop.

I'm currently running Windows XP SP2 and wanting to upgrade to Windows 7. I have set aside a 20GB partition and i'm wanting to make a fresh instal, not fussed about keep XP. I have 2 internal hard drives @ 149GB each. But, Win 7 fails to recognise them even when i have set a partition on the empty HD! It says something like 'setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate existing system partition ' What does this mean?

I've recently purchased a Zoomstorm PC and am running Windows 7 professional. I was happily going along when the dvd driver stopped being seen. It is there in the BIOS. I have checked the SATA cables, I have checked the filters in the regedit - I have even been on the MShelp forums and done all advised. But to no avail. The DVD does open and shut and I think mechanically it is fine. I do think that I am missing some kind of driver - that isn't supported by Windows 7. Although it was there initially. I can't re-install Windows 7 as its ...my DVD drive!! The DVD is a Samsung

I'm a complete newbie on Windows 7, having been a diehard XP user. I'm actually fielding this question from my XP computer.However, I now have a new computer running [b]Win7 Home Premium (64-bit)[/b].Currently, it's completely 'clean', no other software installed bar Win7. I haven't even connected it to the web yet! There are two 500Gb hard drives installed.However, when I click on 'Computer', all I see is notification of ONE drive only:' [code] When I right-click 'System Reserved', I have the option: 'Change Drive Letter & Paths'. I don't have that option if I click '465Gb Unallocated'If I give 'System Reserved' a letter, will this then designate my 'missing' drive accordingly?If I then click 'Computer' will it show 'Hard Drive (1) and 'Hard Drive (2)?All I want to do is 'see and access' the second drive and be able to add files etc to it whenever I want. Just the way I can with XP.

I have a problem I hope someone can help with. I have an Iomega Prestige 1Tb USB HDD which is working fine. I have however just insstalled Windows 7 RC on an old PC to try it out. The installation went fine and I connected the USB HDD and copied over a number of files to help further set it up to meet my requirements with no problem.
I then installed drivers for my Speedtouch 330 USB Modem and now the USB HDD is not working. I have tried uninstalling the Modem Driver and uninstalling the USB HD Driver and then reconnecting but with no success. I continue to get a Windows 7 error message. The USB HDD is still working perfectly on my XP laptop.
I hope someone can suggest a solution before I try a complete Windows 7 reinstall?

I have a desktop and a laptop. Both Windows 7
If I try to access files on desktop I am asked for a password. When I put in the password which is the same as that in the windows vault on both computers I am toldit is incorrect.
It may be wanting aassword for the computer rather than the workgroup but I cannot sort it out.
I was told networking was easy on windows 7 but its much harder that when my desktop was XP and laptop vista!

I attempted to upgrade my 64bit vista to windows 7 yesterday, and somehow managed to screw it up. After supposedly completing the upgrade my system restarted then told me the upgrade had failed and everything from my HDD was deleted. I then proceeded with a clean installation on my other HDD, everything went okay and it seemed fine until I restarted and it loaded vista again from my other HDD.I went into bios upon boot and tried to change the load order, however it would seem only one of my HDDs is recognised. Also, the vista HDD is now failing apparently (yay!) which I'm not too fussed about, I just want to get a working system again. I checked device manager to try and see whether my other HDD was recognised there and it is, however it would seem that both of my HDDs are exactly the same make/model. Presuming my vista HDD is on its way out, how can I sort my computer so that it boots from the 7 HDD.

I have a playsation controller adaptor which will not connect properly with windows 7.I can see that this is a fairly common problem as there are quite a few threads on other forums about this particular issue. Unfortunately having read through all of them the solutions offered (and seemingly successful for adaptors of other makes) do not work for me.A little history: worked perfectly on the machine I am using before upgrading from XP to 7. I didn't have to install specific drivers as the drivers XP provided were sufficient.Symptoms: pad/Controller is not recognised in "game controller settings" (joy.cpl found in system32 folder) which on XP allowed me to configure the pad. (There is no pad showing in the window under controller) The controller does show up in the control Panel's "devices and printers" but as "HID-compliant game controller" (it also doesn't show in the device manager under "sound, video and game controllers" only in the Human interface devices tree) The pad is therefore not recognised by, amongst others, pro evolution 11.
Checks: I know the hardware I have works as I have a clever little piece of software called joytokey which substitutes buttons pressed on the pad for keys on my keyboard. Indeed I have typed this entire post using the offending pad. (I haven't really but the point is that I could have done showing that the controller is recognised to a degree and working). Why don't you just use the joytokey software to play pro evo? I hear you ask. I do, however as good as that software is it can't mimic the two joysticks on the PS2 pad which limits the functionality I have in that game. (Like going to war and only being able to use a pistol)
The most damning piece of evidence I have to prove that the hardware works fully is that I have microsoft's very own flight simulator X and without the trickery of joytokey or any type of manual configuring I am able to control the vehicles using my playstion 2 pads. (For those of you who have never played the game, everything important is controlled using the two joysticks on the ps2 pad). Just get an Xbox controller they are not that expensive, in fact in the time it has taken you to create this thread you could have earned enough for a few of them! My, you're a talkative fella. I could buy one but I really prefer the layout and feel of the PS2 pads.
So there we have it. The pad and adaptor work perfectly but only on games that don't require Windows 7 to see the pad in the game controller settings.I have tried the closest thing I could find to the manufacturers driver and one I found at another forum, [URL] neither worked properly for my particular adaptor. (Pad still did not show up in joy.cpl and also caused the pad to vibrate uncontrollably and most functionality stopped in games I tested it in)all I need is the driver windows developed for windows XP but if this is microsofts way of forcing people to buy and use one of their XBox controllers then I'll have to admit defeat.

I am running two systems off one laptop. One 64bit and the other 32bit.On the 64bit system all is well and working fine, but on the 32 bit system there is no wireless adaper been detected in the device manager. As i say, the actual wireless card is fine as its working perfectly on the 64bit system.What I am asking is: How do I get the device manager to recognise the wireless card within the 32bit system?

I don't know where this error hs_err_pid came from.I closed down explorer and there were all this notepad messages on my desktop and I can't get rid of them. Researching, I know this is a Java thing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times to no avail.My windows update is fully updated.I've run 3 virus programs.I notice this was addressed for someone using XP but what of Windows 7? My add/remove program file only contines the program Java (TM) update 29. Nothing else is listed as far as Java is concerned.I've run cleaner programs and these did not take care of the problem. Every time I restart my machine these errors immediate pop up at start up.

I have been using a program called Raw Therapee. I downloaded a new version and on installing it quit saying the old version must be removed. I could not find it listed in Revo Unistaller Pro, so I did a forced uninstall with the location of the main executable. This removed a lot of stuff. I checked the program folder and the folder and many files were still there, so I deleted them. I did a CCleaner in between and after. I then unhide and show system files and deleted the folders in the Appdata of main user and admin account, couldn't find it anywhere else.
CCleaner again and reboot. Went to install the new version again and it claimed that the old version was still installed. I did a search for *aw The* and found an entry in the hidden Program Data Folder. In the Admin account it will not let me in this folder to delete any remnants of the old version of Raw Therapee.

I have an issue with my ArcSoft TV program. Recently something changed and now I get the UAC pop up asking if I want this program to make changes to my computer.Issue is this, I can set to record a program, but with the pop up now coming up, I have to be avaliable to click to record the progarm.Currently I have the UAC set not to ask (pop up). However I understand the reason for the UAC asking and I prefer it to ask. So what I need is a way to allow ArcSoft to run without the pop up, but all other programs to ask for security. What is the way to do this for this one program?
