Printer Not Recognized By Windows 7 Family Edition Premium?
Apr 5, 2011
I have a new Windows 7 Family Edition and have not been able to get it to recognize my printer. Printer is Lexmark Pro 205. I've installed and re-installed the printer several times, disconnected the USB and re-connected and the computer still won't recognize that my printer is connected. Therefore can't get it to print.
I am planning to eventually upgrade all of my computers (a Dell Inspiron 1525, and Compaq desktop) to Windows 7, but would like the cheapest way possible to do it.I love the family pack, but unfortunately it doesn't look like its available anymore.Is it still available? Or do I have to spend more money to upgrade?
How can I get the most out of my fresh Windows 7 installation? I have a Lenovo B570 with a 2nd Gen i3 processor and 4GB DDR3 RAM. 500 GB HD.I use my computer daily and work from home on my computer. I run a lot of memory intense programs and software so full optimization is necessary. I almost always have multiple programs open. I would like to know what programs I should get(ie Tune Up Utilities, Advanced System care) for optimization

I purchased a laptop loaded with Windows 7 Home Premium edition that needs an upgrade to Spanish. I downloaded the x84 Spanish Ultimate edition but I am unsure how to proceed to minimize any mishap.
I am trying to install win7 Home Premium onto a bare Bones PC but the mouse does not work. Checked mouse on another PC and it functions. I am using the USB 2.0 ports
Has anyone any idea on what is the difference between Windows 7 Home Premium Gold and "standard" edition? It is available from Dutch retailers, but they were unable to give me an answer. Googling forums and Microsoft web site (including Dutch one) also did not bring any results, except for more offers.
Just built a new system today, components seem to be working fine. Popped in the 64bit install disk and...can't proceed past the first page of the installation because my keyboard and mouse are not showing up.I thought it might have been the usb ports, but the peripherals show up and work fine when I boot into UEFI. The mouse is a Coolermaster Storm Spawn, and I'm trying to use a Razer Black Widow keyboard.I did a google search,o remedy this.[CODE]
I have recently took a HP 4250 off of a network that was using a static IP address.I put it in an office to be used by just one user. I found an older USB line to use on a new imaged Dell 390 Windows 7 32bit machine. When the USB is connected, I get a "USB Device Not Recognized." Under Devices and Printers, it shows up under Unspecified as an Unknown Device. When I network the exact same model via IP, it installs automatically.
The thing is I don't know is how XP or OS deal with network printer. I have an application that directly request to network printer without judging the installation of the printer.So, after installing a fresh copy of XP if I run my application it add an network printer and start doing the process. where as my application failed completely in 7 Premium also tried to add network printer. While doing this, its gives an error. the snapshot of the error is given PrinterBehave | Flickr - Photo Sharing

I have an HP 2175 All-in-One printer and I've lost the installation cd. I followed the instructions as provided by the support pages directly from HP. Few things happened. First, most of the features of the printer were not working, such as one-touch scanning. If I'd select print landscape, the document would come out portrait. I tried uninstalling, and doing a fresh install, and I've been getting under the control panel device list multiple copies of the HP2175 printer (Copy 1... copy 2.... etc).
I'd like to know, how do I remove the drivers fully, and try a completely new install again, how do I get all the features to work, and how do I get rid of the extra copies of the device?
I have installed the Windows 7 OEM version on one of my other computers so I have access to the OEM software, even if I do not have an available license. That said, my father has a spare CD-Key from his x64 Family Pack (3 Keys for simultaneous operation). I am wondering if I can install Windows with the OEM software and then activate it with the Family Pack CD key or will I have to wait a week for it [Family Pack disk] to arrive in the post?
New laptop with Win 7 will not accept the program. Message: 'The InstallShield (iKernal.exe) could not be installed.' This program (from BBC Who do yopu think you are) is 2007 and installs on Win XP perfectly.

Maybe I will add one more PC.I would like to control desktops, deploy software and Win7 updates, controluser rights etc..How can I do that and what do I need? Windows server edition on one of the computers?
i have a hp dv6 and the hard drive crashed. so i took a friends old dv4 hard drive and installed it. everything has merged over correctly except for the usb ports. when they installed the drivers automatically they all failed. so since then i have tried reinstalling wich leads to error code 37 in the device manager. also i have searched vigorously all over the internet for a correct driver but have found none. then i tried to update the chipset driver which installed correctly. then I did every update on microsoft.com and intel.com to no evail. when i plug in my external hard drive it draws power from the usb ports but is not recognized. under the device manager it shows how the usb controllers have not installed properly and they continue to not work.
I've been trying to find out everywhere to see if my graphics card is capable of Windows 7. I'm having a real hard time. My card is Intel 945 Mobile Family.
My brother installed Windows 7 and his card was outdated so now everything is "blurry" and not nice looking. He couldn't downgrade so he bought a Mac. So yeah, I'd try it out on my computer if I could fork out 1k to get a new computer, but I simply can't.
The windows update advisor says that my graphics adapter isn't "supported" with Windows Aero. The requirements state that it needs 128MB, which I believe I have 256.
It's getting annoying that the Windows Advisor says that it's not supported, yet Best Buy is selling my same exact computer with Windows 7 with the same graphics card. I'm conflicted; I don't want to mess up my computer, yet I want Windows 7.
