I am running a Windows 7 x64 OS. My problem is that my CD/DVD reader reads CDs fine but when I insert a DVD, it makes weird sounds and doesn't detect the DVD at all. I already checked for that filters thing in Registry Edit but I had no filters. All drivers are up to date. Device Manager says that the Reader works fine.
I just recently changed / did format my OS from Vista to Windows 7. All drivers were working in Vista but When I had WIndows 7, My audio driver and Built in SD card/flash reader is not functioning. I was able to find the realtek driver for windows 7 for the audio problem and it worked fine. Now my SD/flash card reader is still not functioning.I tried to use automatic search using windows for the driver but I was not able to find it.I have Toshiba Satellite Pro M200 (core duo, 2G RAM, 32Bit)
I have a toshiba mini notebook that came with preinstalled windows 7. I hate what MS has done to wordpad. Can I get a copy of windows xp and some how override this peice of dog dung. I've used wordpad for everything
I tried both upgrade and clean install of windows 7 ultimate from vista home premium but ended up with this error, "windows setup could not configure windows to run on this computers hardware".
it happens when the installer reaches the the final point where it shows "Gathering..." and "completing install".
the screen goes off and back onn for about less than a second before it fails to install and that error comes up.
I'm using Toshiba A300 Satellite notebook with 4Gb Ram, Core2duo 2.27Ghz 400Gb harddrive. I don't know what's causing the problem.
I rebooted my labtop everything came back ok but the webcam application that normally is under utilities i went to toshiba website installed their so called application but it's not doing anything, what can i do to get it back.
I did a clean install on my new HP pavillion model a6632f, everything works other than I can't get the 15 in 1 reader to show up. There are no unknown devices in device manager.
When I put a CF or an SDHC card in the internal (USB) cardreaderor in an external (USB) cardreader, those cards are not seen, although the readers are seen alright.When I disconnect the internal reader, put a card in it, and connect it again to USB, the card is seen. Take the card out, put it in again; no card. Same with he external reader.I checked Device Manager on possible wrong settings, but couldn't find anything.
im running an evga sli 58x, and windows 7 64bit 7077
i have the RC1 version of windows 7 but i hate to install that and as i have all my games and everything id have to reinstall with it(major pain) plus im not even sure if that would fix my problem
anyways when i plug my card reader in i can't access it at all, it does show up in device manager but it says drivers not installed. I don't think they make this card reader anymore and there would be drivers floating around for a card reader, so what are my choices?
I bought this Generic USB All in 1 Mini Card Reader off eBay (Some Cheap chinese thing) It worked fine on my previous setup, Windows Vista x64, and it still works on my fathers computer, Vista x64 I believe. But When I try to connect it to my current Windows 7 x64 install, it justs gives me an I/O device error, I think it might have something to do with the Device driver for Win 7 It might not be compatible, I don't know just thought somebody might have an idea if I can get it to work in Windows 7.
on my laptop (ASUS Z91N), I've got one left driver issue: the integrated memory card reader.
It's called Ricoh SD/MMC controller, the latest driver having the best behavior found is 2003-10-20 (1.4.2.9) from ASUS website for WinXP. All other drivers found does nothing, they install but when I plug the card, nothing appears in "My computer".
The problem is that when I plug a SD card, windows detects it, assigns a letter, but I am unable to open to look at the files. I get "Access denied" every time.
When I try to format, it does it with the good size detected! I tested by looking with another computer.
So, this problem is weird, I never had any issue similar to that in the past.
I'm running Windows 7 RC on HP nw8000 and I'm pretty sure the card reader worked ok on Vista Ultimate 32.
Has anyone found a driver for the built-in SD card reader? HP doesn't list anything past XP on their site, not even for Vista for this device for this notebook.
im not very computer minded, so this message may be brief to some. I have owner and been using a HP Pavillion DV7 Laptop on Windows 7 Home Premium for nearly 6 months now. The computer has been great and worked well up until this morning. A notice came up to do some updates, and once i clicked and computer restarted, I noticed my fingerprint reader no longer worked. I just get a message at first saying 'reading detector', then followed by 'The Fingerprint Reader Is Not Detected'. I had my finger sensor working fine daily up 2 this point.... its as if maybe a driver has been disabled or removed? without the sensor working, I have no possible way to get past user login screen. Its saying to type a password into box, but I cant for the life of me remember it, Im sure I never set one, as I knew the finger sensor would be easier?
I just bought my laptop, a new toshiba satellite with windows 7 and 64 bit, i tried to install assasins creed 3, but gave me error about "feature transfer error component sound_sfx filedata2.cab error data error (cyclic redundancy check)", i thought it was a game error, but then i realized my dvd reader stops working, i tried to copy the files from the dvd and it stoped working after a while also (it happened with abother DVD too when tried to copy the file to my computer). So i was wondering what can i do

I have emails that come to me through my yahoo acct. that when I down load are in adobe software. When it opens up it opens in Microsoft Word and shows up encoded and unable to read.

I have a Lenovo H215 Desktop computer (AMD CPU, Win 7 64 bit) purchased in 2010 upon which I have never been able to get a download of th ADOBE reader for PDF files to successfully install.I downloaded and saved the free reader download directly from the ADOBE website. I have installed this reader on my other Win 7 64 bit computers.On this Lenevo computer I get the User Account Control dialogue panel asking if I want the program to change my system then when I respond nothing happens. No error messages, nothing. I run the install as adminstrator.I have un installed all other applications on the system and run CCleaner with the same lack of results.
After downloading new version of Adobe Reader, all of my programs try to open in Adobe. System won't let me do restore and I can't open programs to include my anti-virus program.
My fingerprint reader randomly stopped working a few days ago. I first noticed it when trying to log on to my computer because the reader doesn't respond at all and now it doesn't even give me the fingerprint reader option when it comes to the welcome screen.
I have Microsoft Power Point Reader installed. When I receive a Power Point presentation in an email, Windows 7 can't open it and I have to save it then open the Reader myself to see it.What can I do to get Windows 7 to find the Reader?
I'm trying to open a pvs file in Adobe Reader and when I try I get the file could not open because it's not a supported file type or the file has been damaged. When I try to open in another program (Microsoft Word) I get a file conversion table that I can't make out one way or the other.
I have 4 micro SDHC camera cards, a 64 meg, 2 gig, 4 gig and 8 gig. Problem: my computer will only read the 64 meg, via a adapter, and not the 2 gig and above. I can read all directly from the camera connected to the computer via a USB port. Whats up with this?
