Windows 7 Refuses To Install Printer Driver
Mar 16, 2011
I have a brand new printer Canon IP4850. The driver installed like a dream on an old desktop win XP, on my laptop which is Win 7 32bit. Only on the Acer Desktop Win 7 home edition 64bit it refuses. Windows claim it encountered a "catastrophical error" (????) and error 0x080000FFFF. I tried the driver on the cd which came with the printer, I tried the download from the Canon site: nothing. Microsoft claims it is a Canon problem and Canon states it is a Microsoft problem. I tried to rename the softwaredistribution folder (result: 0). As to me there is something in the setup of Windows (Acer only delivers image dvd's, not original Windows dvd's) which stops drivers from installing. As this desktop is the printerserver of the house, I would like to get it to work!

I have an Oki B4350 printer that doesn't like to work under Windows 7, either 32 bit or 64 bit, but it works perfectly under Vista. Everything I try to print something, the printer just says "invalid data" And refuses to print anything. I've tried looking but the official site has no drivers that I can use, as it says that the drivers come with the OS.

I recently upgraded my computer by adding a pair of kingston 64GB SSDs in raid 0 and reinstalled win7. This worked fine and the computer was working without any issues.I then upgraded the ram going from 4 to 8GB and initially windows refused to boot. I discovered I'd reset the bios and lost the raid settings. Having reset the raid I tried to see if the machine would boot into windows and win 7 said it had to do a system repair as the data was corrupted.I tried this and from thern on the real problems started.What happens now is that when booting from the Cd (so I can reinstall win7),the system starts fine, runs the post and then says windows is loading files. Once the starting windows appears in the middle of screen and the animation is just about to start running, the screen changes, the computer crashes and a thick red line appears across the top of the monitor.
Current system config:
Asus P5N-E Sli motherboard
Intel Q6600 CPU (not overclocked) 2.4GHz
8GB Kingston HyperX dual channel 800MHz CL 4-4-4-12
Nvidia 8800GT graphics card
Creative Audigy 2 sound card
Vantec PCi-E Sata card
Asus/ViXS TV tuner card
2x Kingston 64GB SSD
1x 500GB Seagate
1x 2TB Seagate

So I'm trying to install Windows 7 via XP SP2 but every time I try it gets to the expanding files part(27%) and cancels the whole installation saying Windows could not prepare the computer too boot into the next phase. I ran a chkdsk scan on the drive and unplugged all USB devices and some people said that Windows couldn't find the HDD Controllers so I installed my chipset drivers too but still nothing.I can't really format these partitions(especially C: since I need the XP installation on it to install Win 7)What could be cause of this? Can a damaged or missing bootsector(or bootmgr) be to blame?

Have removed Adobe Flash and Reader plus all the Java stuff (after the warnings) and have tried a fresh reinstall of the Flash player and was going to redo the Reader which was throwing up update issues.
Now i did see something about JavaScript in trouble shooting with the Adobe download

from Epson and HP (who made the PC). I've tried the original CD and latest download for my Epson SX415 on my laptop, and also a friend's, but they have refused to load the printer driver.

I have attempted to install my 8560 printer on my laptop I am having issues. I went to Xerox and downloaded and attempted to install the printer and received the same issue.
It wants to install as a network printer and is requesting me to connect to a network. I do not have a network. When I go to view my devices and printers I see my Xerox printer there which seems strange. I tried to print something from word and it only printed in black and with from the bypass tray. I then went to check my printer preferences and found i had only the very basics options which all seemed to be fine except for the color and tray selection.
Its weird because on my XP and Vista computers, I do note have this issue and they are also laptops. I checked my security and I have rights to everything. I simply want to install the printer and us it with a USB connection.
I am also having an issue with two other devises using the USB port connection.

I have a Lexmark z730 printer and I want to install that to Windows 7. Unfortunately Windows 7 does not support this printer. Is there any way I can make it work? I don't want to move to a different OS just to print something.

I bought a MG5450 2 days ago and began setting it up yesterday however stumbled across an issue where the printer driver would not install regardless of the compatibility setting. Being as it's a newly released printer I thought the drivers would be up to date and new, however I think there may be a issue with NT 4.0 driver policy as when I try to install the drivers through the device manager, it gives me that message that there's a policy in place stopping me.
Windows update always fails when trying to install the printer, however the scanner, and software included all work fine. I can scan images on wirelessly and have them saved on my computer without an issue, however there is no way to print. I have tried disabling the policing through the 'MSC' and adding a local group policy or something along those lines. However none of this has worked. How can I get the driver to install or disable the policy to allow the printer to be installed. Tried installation of the drivers both through wireless and wired, both come to the same outcome.

The daughters laptop which runs Windows 7 and when she tries to boot up the computer it gets as far as the desktop and then a blue screen appears. This blue screen appears even if i try and boot the machine up in safe mode? I am unable to tell you what is on the bluescreen because it only appears for a few seconds and then the machine shuts down?

I have a problem that makes me want to destroy my laptop. I use sleep mode a LOT. Until today, it used to actually enter sleep mode. Now, it turns of the screen, and HDD activity seems to stop (At least the light turns off). But it never actually sleeps. In fact, it seems to use MORE power somehow. I usually get ~5 hours on battery. My new awesome sleep mode is so good it consumes the battery in just 3 hours.

I have a laptop, Acer aspire 7001, and it runs on Windows 7. It ran fine for a year, but a couple weeks ago I dared to install windows updates. There were a lot of them, including SP1. I restarted, but suddenly windows wouldn't open. I managed to start in safe mode and found SP1 wasn't installed correctly. I removed it, ran a couple scans (antivirus, malware, register) and restarted. Still windows won't start in normal mode. A memory scan found nothing wrong. CHKSDK finds nothing. Startup Repair sometimes says "restart to finish", and sometimes "cannot repair". I have written down every startup repair error report.
I tried to use Windows Recovery, but found all restore points had been removed! Furthermore, I tried to use the windows 7 cd, but the laptop refuses to read the CD. It's not just with the windows cd (which works on other computers). The BIOS recognizes the CD reader, but it seems unable to read cd's. So I'm guessing there's a hardware problem there.

My Windows 7 Home Premium x64-based system will not prompt me for a password after the system resumes from standby or from the screen saver. I have both settings in place - I have the screensaver's "On resume, display logon screen" check box selected, AND I have the Power settings option set to "require a password on wakeup". However, neither setting works. I even set the "ScreenSaverIsSecure"="1" registry entry, but it had no effect. After the system resumes from standby or when the screen saver closes, the desktop is available with no password prompt.If I manually log off, or reboot the system, I am prompted to select a user and type the password, so the passwords are correctly in place.

I have tried to configure some notification icons to display and others to be hidden. Win7 respects my settings during the session but after a reboot they are back to whatever they were before. Its a real productivity killer for me. I am running inside a standard account. I thought about trying to change the settings in the Admin account but the icons I need to customise don't appear there.
