Cannot install drivers- HELP!!

The issue right now is that my laptop (gateway) is NOT recognizing my iPod and itz driving me mad!! I think I have found the root cause. When I plug my iPod in and go to device manager....it comes up as "unknown device". I right click and device status says that there are no drivers for this device. So I try and install the drivers (usbstor.sys and usbstor.inf)...i've done this several different ways....directing it to the CD that came with the iPod....pointing it to C:\program files\windows\inf...etc.
The message that keeps popping up is "Cannot complete hardware update....no suitable drivers were located that better fits the software already installed..." or something along those lines. I'm at work right now so I can't remember the exact wording...I will post some screen shots when i get home.
Here's all the things i have done so far:
- exchanged iPod
- uninstalled/reinstalled itunes, ipod setup
- removed all itunes, ipod and quicktime
- cleaned out my temp files
- i have reset my system settings to a date prior to when i started having issues with my iPod
i have no idea what the issue could be. When I check the USB port for drivers when my iPod is unplugged...it shows two drivers....usbhub...and something else.
I read somewhere that I should check the INF file to make sure that my device is on there. I did this right before leaving for work and did not see "Apple" or "iPod" or anything of that sort on there. Could this be the issue? I did not have time to check my device name and see if it was listed but I will when I get home.
Any suggestions?? anyone with the same issue and solution??...any help would be greatly appreciated. Right now i have a wonderful $300 machine that is useless right now. Also, i am running on windows XP home....and when I first got my iPod...everything was working ok until one night i left it connected to my comp overnight....and the next morning my comp was not recognizing it.....

Go to the site where you get the drivers from and select correct version of drivers then download again it will get solved possibly
do reply
cheers TGT

    Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) Adapters are present in this computer
    Reads the error message I purchased an RaLink USB Wireless adapter IEEE 802.11 b installed in an XP Pro system, an Intel D925XEBC2 MB with A P4 CPU 3.80 GHZ
      I have 4 gigs of RAM installed but it reads only 2.87 RAM on system properties
    I installed the RaLink Drivers and the Ralink interface. I get a strong signal and see that the wifi is there but cannot connect. The 1394 Net adaptor #2 is showing as is the USA wireless card
    I was asked to install the PIN which I assumed meant the network security but my keyboard will only input numbers not the letters, otherwise the keyboard operates properly on notepad but not on the RaLink software
    Under other devices it shows  both the Ethernet controller and the Network controller with a question mark "?".
    I have tried uninstalling and starting the computer several times but they will not install correctly.
    The windows interface shows no wi fi system at all. After going back and forth now both windows and the RaLink interface shows no wifi system.
    When I went to https://downloadcenter.intel.com/detail_desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18717  and downloaded the 32 bit file and tried to install it I got the error.

    Hi there,
    you're in the wrong forum, but I'll try to guide you.
    (a better forum for your question would likely be this:
    http://social.answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/networking?tab=Threads )
    Your RALink wireless adaptor is not manufactured by Intel, that's why Intel driver download won't help you.
    You need to go here (RALink is now Mediatek) to get the drivers for your adaptor

  • HT1461 I have installed the Windows 8 on my MacBook using BootCamp, but I cannot install drivers for Windows now

    I have installed the Windows 8 on my MacBook using BootCamp already, but I cannot install drivers for Windows now: I've got only BootCamp 3 disk and it doesn't goo even if I start it using compatibility options. And my BootCamp on Mac didn't offer me to burn cd with drivers for windows as I saw in many instructions. How can I resolve the problem? Thanks a lot.

    Go back to Boot Camp: on the 2nd page you get this:
    Download the support software and as Windows is already installed uncheck the 2nd box.

  • Can anyone tell why I cannot install drivers for my IPOD Clasic

    I have iTunes installed and I cannot install drivers for my IPOD Classic while using windows vista 64 bit?

    Download the apps on your syncing computer and then sync to the iPod. Note that you can only sync apps for the one syncing computer you use with the iPod. You can manage music and videos among different computer.

  • Cannot install Air help - Error Nr. 0

    When I try to install a compiled Air Help, the installer always informs me that an error occured and that I should try again. The Error number 0 is displayed - does anybody know what this stands for? This does not seem like a very helpful information for endusers without further explanation..

    I cannot help you with the error message but I can clarify when admin rights are required. You need them to install an AIR file and to apply an update. You do not need admin rights to use an installed AIR help system.

    Hi DM,
    I've reinstalled OATS after delete reg OracleATSHelper under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\, then double click UninstallBrowserHelper.bat, delete folder Oracle IE ToolBar, double click InstallBrowserHelpers.bat, howerver, I still got a popup saying " WebDom Browser Helper installation failed! Failed to register OpenScript IEToolbar DLL".
    Still I cannot run openscript cases through OTM. There are 2 situations:
    1) Without stopping the Agent in OTM server. Run recorded case through OTM, no browser is automatically opened and it stopped at the first step, saying "*Failed Object "/web:window[@index='0' or @title='New Tab']" failed to respond to action: <Message name="Navigate"><Parameter WindowIndex="0"></Parameter>*<Parameter Url=......."
    The same case can be run successfully from OpenScript.
    2) Stop the agent in OTM server , Run c:\> C:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin\AgentManagerService.exe -c C:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin AgentManagerService.conf in a cmd prompt ,then execute the script from OTM, however, a browser is automatically opened on the agent side only for 1 second. Also, the result is failed...
    How can I run openscript cases from OTM successfully??
    Can anybody help me?

  • My pc cannot install drivers for my iphone 5c

    okay, so my first iphone was an iphone 4, and when i connected it to the computer, it could sync to itunes and also start autoplay to transfer photos and videos to pc. i gave that phone to my mother and got an iphone 5c, remembering to back it up using itunes so i still had all my stuff there. i also moved all the photos/videos i had on my iphone 4 to the pc so that none of them are on the phone anymore. i didnt put them back on my iphone 5c, i just kept them on the pc.
    so now i have a bunch of new photos on my iphone 5c that i would like to transfer to my pc to free up space, but when i plugged it in my pc said: "device driver software was not successfully installed." i opened up task manager and it shows up in "other devices" as "iphone", and when i click properties it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)." clicking "search automatically for updated driver software" just says "windows could not find driver software for your device." clicking "browse my computer for driver software" and browsing in C:\Windows\System32 while having the "include subfolders" button checked just like this article told me to: iOS: Unable to import photos to computer - Apple Support leaves me with "Windows found driver software for your device but encounted an error trying to install it. MTP USB Device The system cannot find the file specifed." ive tried uninstalling the iphone and reinstalling it but it gives me the same error message every time.
    my mother's iphone 4 still connects the computer with no problem, and also still connects to itunes. my iphone 5c can connect to itunes. it just wont connect to the computer. my father also has an iphone 5c, and it can also connect to itunes but it gives me the same problem as mine. the computer i have is a Windows 7 Home Premium and it is 64-bit. i havent tried this on a different computer because i cant, i dont have a different one and i dont really have anyone else to help me, so i dont know if this is an issue that is exclusive to my own computer or not. im sorry that this is so long, i just wanted to add as much detail as i can.

  • Cannot install drivers prope

    I recently bought a second hand SB 5. li've! Digital off someone, whenever i download and run the install i recieve the message that it cannot find my sound card. I however was able to install a driver which comes with windows XP which has worked, but if i play on battlefield 2 the sound works perfectly except for the messages that the bots say come out slow and jumpy. I tried installing an up to date driver which again cannot find my card so i extract the driver itself with winrar but once i have installed the driver i have no sound in the rear speakers.
    I have checked that the windows settings are on 5. and have tried installing the eax console but it cannot find my sound card.

  • Install drivers (help)

    I have an 2gh Core 2 duo Imac and I recently installed windows XP to it using bootcamp.  Then I used my Leopard install DVD to install the drivers.   Everything seems find except that Windows XP can't find my wireless card.  I think the problem may be that I didn't use the OS install DVD that came with my Imac (lost it) and I used the Upgrade DVD to move upto Leopard.  I tried searching with google to help fix my problem with no luck at all.  Is there a way to make my mac burn a disk with the correct drivers or maybe a way to get the correct drivers online?  Any help would greatly appreciated.

    Not quite sure what version your using for an OS. What version is your Upgrade disk? Leopard or Snow Leopard?
    It's been awhile since I've used an upgrade disk but you should (?) be able to use the upgrade disk to install the drivers.
    Just insert the Leopard upgrade disk while booted in Windows and see if it will install or "repair" the drivers and then use the Apple updater in Windows to update the drivers.
    You might also try downloading the 2.1 Boot Camp drivers for XP from the Apple Downloads page and see if that helps. Don't forget to update to 2.2 after your done.
    You won't be able to use 3.0 as it only comes on the Snow Leopard disk. There is no other way to get it. You cannot use 3.1 or 3.2 without having 3.0 installed first.
    You can also contact Apple to sell you another copy of your original disk for a replacement cost.

    Connects to windows 8 without a problem.

    Hey shabnamsarup,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities! I found an article that should help you out. I would pay special attention to step 9) Verify that USB drivers are installed, but would also go through all of the steps to make sure that it isn't something else causing the issue:

  • Cannot install drivers in win 7 32 bits using bootcamp 4 or 5

    I posted this question yesterday.
    anyway, I have a imac midi 2011, 21,5 inches using OS x mountain lion 10.8.2. Manuals say I have to install bootcamp 4, because I install windows 7 profesional 32 bits.
    Al follow all this instalation requirements, but when I try to install system say This software is not compatible.
    I Downloaded from appel suppor site to PC intel and after I copy the .zip file in a root of USB formatted in FAT 32.
    Finally is not possible download any driver. I I want to install an specific driver, is same problem.
    I did all this steps but downloading bootcamp 5, and got same results. I understood Bootcamp 5 is only to install win 8 o win 7 64 bit, am I right?
    Thanks for your help
    Gilberto

    To teh best of my knowledge, Boot Camp 5 only supports 64 Bit Windows installations (as it is designed for 64 bit hardware).  I dont recall positively, but I believe that Boot Camp 4 supports both 64 bit and 32 bit windows installations, but the installer may default to 64 bit mode.  You may have to extrace the drivers and install them manually in 32 bit mode.

  • Cannot install drivers for PXI-MXI-3

    We bought a MXI-3 system for our Acqiris cc103 crate. About 2 months ago, after initial troubles, I managed to install and test the system. Unfortunately, I had to uninstall the PCI card and software because I wasn't using the crate and my computer didn't like the card and software installed without the link to the PXI controller.
    Now I want to use the crate again and tried to install the software and hardware. After 3 hours I still have no success. MXI-3 optimise doesn't recognise the crate and the link LED on the PXI controller is off.
    I had a look at the device manager and cannot find the PCI-PCI bridge icon, nor any unrecognised hardware and conflicts.
    I am running Windows 2000
    Please, can you help?

    I realize this is kind of late, Erik, but a few suggestions here.
    First, power down your PXI chassis, and your PC. Power up the PXI FIRST. Then power up your PC. You *must* do it in this order, or it won't work.
    You should see your MXI optimize.
