Plugging The Printer USB Cable Into The Modem And, In Control Panel?
Jun 24, 2011
One desktop PC running Windows 7 Home EditionOne laptop also running Windows 7 Home EditionMy modem is a Thomson TG782TMy printer is an Epson STYLUS Photo RX610I currently print by swapping the printers USB cable to either my desktop or the laptop, no problems.My desktop is cabled to the modem, my laptop is wireless.My modem has a USB port, to which I can successfully plug in a USB memory stick, and use from both the PC and the laptop.I have tried plugging the printer USB cable into the modem and, in Control Panel, installing a new printer using 192.168.1.253 address.The printer appears to have installed ok, but all attempts to print to it have been unsuccessful
This event happens maybe once every 20 plug-in attemps and only when I'm slightly up or down from a straight push in. The device doesn't matter. The port in question is one of four on the front panel of the case. The rebooting only happens with one port. Never had a problem with the other three. I haven't pulled the front of the case because it happens so infrequently.
New computer - Dell Inspiron 15R laptop. Windows-7 home premium 64-bit. Trying to access internet. 7 gives connection option of Broadband where ISP requires ID and Password. However, my ISP does not require this info to log on....its just "plug-n-play" I have run every test and diagnostic that I can find and the only prob I can find is something to do with the DNS, but have no way to fix the problem. The connection is Cable Modem, via LAN wire. One of the diagnostics recognizes my ISP, but still won't let me connect.
I rarely need to send/receive a FAX, but I would like to know how before I need to. In the past, I had a dialup FAX modem, but now I'm on cable, and I never thought about FAXing until just now. My printer also has a FAX function, but the only driver available for it on Windows 7 is the one that Windows 7/Windows Update installs.In the Windows FAX/Scan program, the scanner works perfectly, but When I try to creat a new FAX, it says that I need a FAX modem. I have no idea of whether my cable modem is capable of that or not, but when I select to send a FAX, a window appears stating that I need a fax modem or server, but when I select to use a local modem, an error appears saying that I need to contact the administrator (me). From the interface, the only thing that appears to be for setting this up is the Tools>Options menu, but when I click on that, nothing happens.The first question is whether it is typical for a cable modem to be able to handle a FAX or not?
my pc was causing a lot of problems. i have a verizon wireless jetpack,with a netgear wireless adapter. I tried uninstalling netgear, then wanted to reinstall it. But I cant install it. It keeps saying no connectivity can b found. like there is a connection missing to the modem. A VW tech guuided me through the jetpack, everything was fine with that. What do I need to do?
When I go to Control PanelAll Control Panel ItemsNotification Area Icons dialog then there are a lot of programs which are already uninstalled.
How can I cleanup/delete all these useless entries? How can I delete ONE single entry manually?
Second question: Assume I want to hide icons and notification for mutiple/all entries (here approx 40 items) in ONE STEP.
Third question: How can I save/backup the current notification settings (for later restore) into a file? Are these notifcation settings stored in a certain branch of the Registry (which exactly) ?
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?
I have a Lenovo G560 and i only see one account when i log onto windows whichs is mine but some how my boyfriend logs in without changing my password and now i am not theadministrator i cannot open change or delete a single fileing doesnt help. it says cannot find path or environment variables then it says contact system administrator which my account is. I cannot do a system restore cause it wont let me says denied
For some reason I can't view anything that is under the control panel as well as the control panel itself. I can open everything else fine such as pics, music, games, videos. But anything that has to with the control panel I can't see. The task bar says the folder is open but I see nothing.I have tried the following: ran sfc, it says nothing is wrong, tried to create a new user account, but I can't since it falls under the control panel. I tried to create a new user account through the guest account (I was able to make it an administrator) but it says I can't create a new account with special characters such as $=- etc... I didn't use any special characters at all so I don't know why it's saying that. It seems to me that this is a registry problem, and I'm a little uncomfortable with the registry and don't like to mess with it at all. Worse comes to worse I'm going to try to reinstall windows
cant install java. its missing from my control panel and eveytime i try to reinstall, site site gives me the java 160-31 update, when i try to install it, a dialog pops up promting me to search for the 29 update. i guess thats the 1 in missing cause the same thing happens when i try uninstalling 29 & 30 from my programs & features in my control panel. im running windows 7 home premium 64 bit and ie 9. i also use Google chrome.
I run a server from home and im thinking of giving a few of my very good and trusted staff members access to my server machine but would like to disable the control panel first.

Alright, so it started around 5-7 days ago. Photoviewer started giving a message with this line,C:Program FilesWindows Photo ViewerPhotoViewer.dll is not a valid win32 application.Searched on google, first thing it said was to check if there's any viruses. I scanned it with super-antispyware and had one virus. Did the sfc /scannow and it says it couldn't repair some files (CBS logs are over 3mb ). Cleared the virus and after two days, most of the items in control panel doesn't do anything when I try to click on it (i.e Power Options, Backup & Restore, Firewall) or it gives the line,Windows cannot find '::{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371,Paint and opening other things through Start Menu gives this fine,C:Windowssystem32ODBC32.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error
I've tried this twice now (on the same machine) and each time Control Panel won't work; it doesn't open. If I change the start menu to show links to Control Panel applets only some of them work; User Accounts, Display, Power Settings, Windows Update and others just do nothing. This means I can't adjust my display properties to get the correct alignment of my dual monitors, among other things, so I've given up on it meantime.
Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions on how to overcome it?
When I click on the control panel icon on my desktop nothing happens. When I click on start>control panel I get the same result. I have a power options icon on my desktop and that does not work either. If I right click the power options icon and choose open file location the control panel opens normally. Everything works fine in safe mode though.
i installed windows 7 and managed to get sound working but in windows xp i had this soundmax control panel wizard that let me configure standard sound jacks to 5.1.
i tried going to control panel > sounds > configure speakers but no 5.1 options.
I just finished my new build and everything was going along well when I loaded my drivers for the asus xonar essence st sound card. Now everything in the tool bar, but the start button will not respond and control panel is frozen. Control panel will load but takes 3 or 4 minutes and then is unresponsive. So I can't just uninstall and start over. Any one have any ideas?
my control panel is not on my computer when i enter my desktop. can you helpe get it on my desktop. i also want my pc to restore back to 13th of april?
