Hi caelyx27,
Thank you for providing with your operating system and additional information but I will see need your product number please. You can try Testing for Hardware Failures to see if there is any sort of hardware issue that might be triggering that message. Also, check your Device Manager to see if there are any devices with an exclamation mark or any Unknown Devices. If there are post the hardware IDs.

Hardware changes might not have been detected

Hello,
I am getting the error message "hardware changes might not have been detected" for five days now. Using HP Pavillion g6Notebook PC/Product No. : D8Q59EA#ABF running OS Windows 8 (not wanting to upgrade to 8.1)
After Windows automatic security and KB updates, and HP update, five days ago I started having error messages when trying to watch videos online. Video would start and five seconds in 'black-out' with error message 'unable to play video' imbeded in video itself. I then noticed sound abscence on my laptop and noted that although all sound controls are at proper settings, there is no sound. Device manager is showing NO exclaimation marks or warnings. HP Action center is saying 'no issues' and Control Panel automated fix tools are all coming back as 'unable to fix problem', OR, when running troubleshooter in CP for hardware and devices getting the "hardware changes might not have been detected message". I have tried using a restoration point to before issues began, which temporarily fixes the sound issue but it then goes off again. Same with 'HP recovery' option for 'drivers', temporary fix that does not remain. Tried 'system restore' from a restoration point just done where sound WAS working but even that, once done, quickly lost the sound. Tried Microsoft onliine auto fix tools and they too are unable to fix the problem. Windows updates all up to date, no 'optional updates' available other than Bing Desktop and Microsoft Silverlight, both of which I do not want or need. Drivers all up to date it appears, including with HP Updates. Intuitively it feels as if the drivers are up to date, recognized and functioning, but then 'something' is 'disconnecting' their recognition/functioning, IF it is in fact even a driver issue. I have been reading for several days and narrowed it down to that. Seen a few articles re the EXACT same problem referenced on an OS Windows 7, but not ONE where a solution that fixes the problem exist! Thank you in advance for your help and please advise if further details are required. I have added no new hardware recently, or ever, in fact to my laptop, only Kaspersky Pure MANY months ago and it is working perfectly without conflicts. Thanks again.

Hi RedmoonWolf,
Bit of a puzzler of an issue for sure. And you're right, there's very little out there in terms of similar error messages, and how to fix them.
I would consider going to the Windows Update window, and noting which ones went through lately. Then, another place to start first might be to go back to that same restore point again, and this time halting the automatic updates.
Once that is stable again, try updating any browsers you use, and also Adobe flash, as a lot of videos work off of that.
Secondly, before doing any more updates, go ahead and run the system file checker - might be something that it'll catch and fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
Finally, if all is going alright, create another restore point, and then try the updates again, hopefully this time around they'll work

USB 3.0 devices not being detected on a Thinkpad X1 Carbon

After every reboot or cold boot, no USB 3.0 devices are detected on my
Thinkpad X1 Carbon Touch. (Intel Series 7 chipset)
There is a way to get them to be detected, but it doesn't survive a reboot
and it's ugly.
Go into device manger and uninstall the device "Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible
host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)"
The do a "Scan for hardware changes"
Then everything is detected correctly.

>Is it that specific driver?
It's a driver built into Windows 10.
>What if you try the Windows 7 driver available on Intel's website here?
I tried that, Windows 10 wont replace it's own driver. (Windows has
determined that the driver software for your device is up to date.)
>Hope that helps!
I've been fighting it for a long time. It's downright annoying. I can plug
it into my USB 2.0 port and it works all the time, but a lot slower, or
even plugging it into a USB 2.0 hub that's plugged into a USB 3.0 port
always works too, and slightly faster than the USB 2.0 port. (but not as
fast as USB 3.0)
I suspect it's some kind of power management issue to do with the driver,
devices aren't getting the power up signal so they just don't show up at
all. It could be a hardware difference, but the same devices just worked
on Win8.1 and below.

Error: Windows Vista failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause

PLEASE HELP!
My Lenovo SL500 is not working at all - I get error: "Windows Vista failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause"
I tried the following on my Lenovo:
Windows repair menu = "windows cannot be repaired"
Lenovo Rescue and Repair
Rescued my files from Hard-drive (copied to external hdd)
Restore System = Failed
Diagnose hardware = HDD passes all tests
Don't know what else to do with = Boot from another device ? Access BIOS?
Because I do not have the windows vista install disks
I purchased and downloaded the recovery disks from neosmart.net
The neosmart windows vista recovery disks DO NOT WORK = Error is "Unable to find any valid Windows partitions on this computer".
The Hard-drive exists because I was able to back-up files from HD through (Lenovo Rescue & Recovery Rescue files). So there is a hard-drive.
I don't know what to do next?
Last resort is to Factory Restore via either the Lenovo R&R or Windows Vista Recovery Disks (neosmart)?
Will I still have windows?
PLEASE HELP!

Hi, Josemne
Yes, if you can restore the system through Rescue & Recovery, then you will still have WIndows on your machine, but all your files will be deleted from the hard drive. Luckily, you have already saved those files elsewhere. I would recommend trying to restore the system and see if that works.
Best,
Adam

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware of software change might be the cause.

Hello,
Last night when I was finished using it for the day I went ahead and shut it down. Prior to shutting it down it was working perfectly fine. When I went to boot it up this morning, I kept getting the error that windows was unable to start normally and it took me to startup repair multiple times. I don't have the operating system disk (Windows 7) anymore I'm not sure if my computer just didn't come with a windows 7 disk. All I know is that I don't have it anymore. I tried basically everything I could find on the internet that was supposed to help with it and nothing works. I tried going into safe mode and using the command prompt, still nothing. It's now just showing up with a screen saying "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware of software change might be the cause. But like I said, this comes as a problem seeing as though I don't have my windows disc. I would really like to now if there is a way to fix this problem. I am requesting your help to fix this issue.

try to download and burn a copy of win7 from forums.MyDigitalLife.info
match your version and bits of windows
then run repair / Startup Repair 3x off the win7 dvd without letting it try to start into windows. rebuilds your partition tables and fixes a lot of things.
if that doesnt get you into windows... read up and run SFC /offwindir /offbootdir from the win7 dvd
you dont say much what you've tried .. i assume you tried from the F8 menu / startup repair / an older system restore date ?
You need the windows7 dvd !!!

Windows 7 32 bit failed to start .A recent Hardware or software change might be the cause.

Hi 12345Kiran,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Notebook and looping repair screen on startup. Try performing a hard reset. When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices. If that does not help try to turn on the computer you start to press F11 repeatedly till the menu opens. You can do a system restore.
I would be happy to assist if needed as there are many models of HP I would need the model number. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.

I'm using HP dv6 7043 cl. My system was really slow. It was taking almost 7 mins in startup. I tried to reboot but I think I chose the wrong option while doing it. I pressed F9 button. It asked me to choose DVD-R or usb. I chose dvd option as my recovery was made on discs. Later it gave me the hp recovery menu options. There, I chose system recovery. It did it successfully but now the windows is not starting. It says Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. Can someone please help and tell me how can I solve this issue and again get back my original windows?

Hi,
Assuming this may just a problem with the recovery media/process, here's an alternative option you could try.
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your notebook - this is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source - Digital River.
Windows 7 Images.
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

My iphone 4 is not being detected by any of my computers and not charging when connected to any computer. It will, however, charge to the car or wall. The only change that I can think of is that I downloaded a podcast from itunes directly from my phone.

My iphone 4 is not being detected by any of my computers and not charging when connected to any computer. It will, however, charge to the car or wall. The only change that I can think of is that I downloaded a podcast from itunes directly from my phone. I've since deleted this podcast with no luck. I've restarted both the phone and the computer, still no luck. One computer is running Vista and the other Windows 7, both have the latest Itunes Update. Anyone have a fix for this?

You clearly did not notice that you have joined a USER TO USER COMMUNITY FORUM
This is NOT Apple ,Apple do not read nor do they therefore respond
So if you would like to wind your neck in ........................
try a reset of iPhone and then a restore,best, as new and if it then functions correctly try restoring with your backup

How do I resolve this I have reinstalled iTunes but it still doesn't recognise my ipod

I reinstalled Itunes a couple of times. I unistalled all programs that I never use, I updated all of my drivers, Windows swept my computer and found no problems. I have a yellow causion lite when I look at the USB-port with the phone connected. All other devices work without a problem.

Upon startup Firefox says "Proxy is refusing connections." When I select "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced settings and solve problem, changes are not saved and upon next startup I must select again...!

Firefox 4 was working fine. Then one day, when I started up Firefox, it says "Proxy is refusing connections." I solved this by selecting "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced network settings, but my changes are not saved and upon every start-up I must select it again! (I even completely removed my webroot antivirus protection, as it as hindering many proxy related programs, but this seems to not be the source of the problem)

You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"
