Help I need to locate a driver for my soundblaster live 24 bit soundcard
My son has been given the following PC games for christmas:-
Command & Conquer 3,
Command & Conquer Red Alert 3,
Arma; Armed Assault,
Medal of Honour: Airborne
The problem he is having installing these 4 games is this. About half way through installation an error message appears that quite simply states "The software you are installing does not bear a WHQL signed driver. This software will not be installed".
The PC we are running is a Dell Dimension 900, that we purchased about 4 years ago, and it was bespoke.
I have run DxDiagnostics and it tells me that the driver for the graphics card is called p7.sys and the sound card are not WHQL logo'd, so how the hell do i download a driver for my soundblaster Li've 24 bit, that does? bear a digital signatre that is WHQL Logo'd. I hope you can help, me please.

Re: Help I need to locate a driver for my soundblaster li've 24 bit soundcard? I guess you and your son are currently using windows xp. Well, what you can do is now is ignoring the WQHL pop-up window and choose the "install anyway" option during the installation of the soundcard driver, since WQHL only means the driver is tested by Microsoft and nothing more; drivers without the WQHL qualification does not mean they are bad drivers, they usually works as good as the WQHL ones.
Ofcourse you can also download the official drivers for the mentioned Soundblaster li've 24bit at Creative Labs support/download site.
here is it:
[url="http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?MainCategory=&Product=035&dlcentric= 025&Product_Name=Li've%2+24-bit&filetype=&OSName=Windows+XP">Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS and Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit XP and Windows Vista Pack .04.0077 (63.39 MB)?[/url]
The driver is for all Soundblaster Audigy Value, SE, LS and Soundblaster Li've 24bit, since they are all based on the CA-006 soundchip (with other words Creative Labs renamed the soundcard several times). Also this driver should be WQHL-ed (if not, choose "install anyway" option during installation of the soundcard driver). Make sure you have uninstalled the older driver before installing the new one. For troubleshooting use utilies like "Driver Cleaner" or "Driver Sweeper" (google for Guru3D and go to the site and their download section to get the utilities/tools) to clean up the junk files of the older driver that are left in the Windows OS.
Good luck and Merry Christmas!!!

I need a Wi-FI driver for Equium A100-027
I own a Toshiba Equium A100-027 with the Atheros AR5006EG Wi-Fi Adapter.The Laptop is running on Windows XP and I need some software to use the wireless adapter. Could someone help me somehow?
The Driver had a Genuiune Windows Vista but it was working slow and I've changed the OS to XP.All you need is the right driver for WLAN card. Some special software is not necessary because you can configure WLAN using Windows WLAN settings.

Do I need an external hard drive for my pictures?
Generally, you should have an external hard drive to backup your system. If your internal hard drive is filling up, you certainly can move pictures to an external hard drive.

I need a floppy disk drive for old 3 1/2" disks. I have a PowerBook G4 with Mac OS X 10.4 operating system. What external drive will for for me?
Hi,
Providing that the old 3.5" floppies are 1.44 MB HD disks, you should be able to use a USB floppy drive.
However, if the disks are 2DD/DSDD in the 800K Mac format a USB drive is not going to work. In this case you would need a suitable semi-old Macintosh computer with a built-in floppy drive as an intermediary.

Laserjet 1300 Driver for Windows 7 64 Bits
Come on HP - I need the driver for Windows 7 64 bits for my HP Laserjet 1300 series.
I installed a generic driver which works OK for some applications.
But when using my Stenograph application the box that should be printed
around the text on the printed page is NOT correct: I only see the top and left side of the box shifted by 3 inches.rainbowdog97 wrote:
Thanks very much for replying to my message. I got PCL 5 from both places -- from the Windows Update list and from the HP website. If it helps, at the hp website it is at:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=238322&p...
You can get to it through www.hp.com/go/windows7, where I also got PCL6.
I have a lenovo thinkpad x300, and connect to the LJ1300 with a USB. I installed PCL5, for example, and tried to print a simple text. But my printer does not respond (the light doesn't start to blink), and when I use the Print function, it gives me a message that indicates "error, 1 document".
I will be off of my printer for a couple of weeks but want to be up and running soon. I had hoped installation of Windows 7 wouldn't be dramatic.
Thanks once again.
The links you cite take you to a page where there are links to:
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL5 x64
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 x64
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PostScript x64
As the name suggests, those drivers are intended to substitute for the "real" driver that is specific to a given printer. They primarily are intended for use where a network administrator is responsible for a variety of HP printers on a single network. See http://h20338.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/343033-0-0-225-121.html Personally, I found the "Universal Print Driver" impossible to install and configure. Congratulations on installing it -- even if it doesn't work.
On the same page that you linked to, there is a link under the heading "Driver" that leads to "Product Support for Windows 7." That link basically leads nowhere useful for Windows 7. The conclusion that you're led to by these pages is that the only choice for Windows 7 is one of the Universal Print Drivers. This conclusion is erroneous.
I can't reconstruct how I found it, but if you go to the link in my previous post (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=120&prodSeriesId=...) you'll get to an HP support page for using HP printers with Win 7. Essentially, this page divides various HP printers into 6 categories and describes your options for each category:
HP and Windows 7 printer driver options available for the selected product
HP print driver available
Windows 7 print driver available
HP LaserJet AIO/MFP product options
Product will be supported
Selected product is not supported in Windows 7
The Laserjet 1300 is listed as a Category 3, which means that a driver specific to this model is built-in to Windows 7. This is not the Universal Print Driver. The catch is that the driver for the Laserjet 1300 isn't available in Windows 7 out-of-the-box (at least, that's what happened in my installation). It only shows up if you permit Windows Update to update the list of built-in printer drivers.
I suggest that you completely uninstall your LJ1300. Disconnect the LJ1300. Then, right click on its icon in Printers and Devices and select "Remove Device." Then click on any other printer listed and then click on "Print server properties" in the menu bar. Click on the Drivers tab and Remove the Universal Print Driver (or whatever else looks like it's related to the LJ1300. Uninstall anything to do with the Universal Print Driver from Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program.
Now, you can take one of two approaches:
What I did was just plug the printer in and turn it on. If you've managed at some point to update the list of built-in printers, Windows should just identify and install the printer like any other USB device. Otherwise, you should get a popup asking you to give permission to search the web for a driver. Grant the permission. Windows will find the correct driver and install the printer.
Alternatively, go to Devices and Printers and start the Add Printer wizard. Tell it you're installing a local printer to LPT1. You'll get to the list of built-in printer drivers. Select HP in the left pane and scroll through the right pane. If you find the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300, cancel the process and then add the printer as in the paragraph above. If you don't find an entry for the Laserjet 1300, click the Windows Update button. After a couple of minutes, the process will be finished, and now when you look there will be the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300. Cancel the process and add the printer as in the paragraph above.
Good luck. -
