How to update usb driver...

I've got a MS-6390 and am running Window 2000 Pro.  I am trying to get my digital camera to connect, and their support tells me I need to update my usb drivers. My multiple attempts all end in miserable failure as far as I can tell. I'm checking in the device manager and looking at the properties for "VIA USB Universal Host Controller" -- on the driver tab I see "Driver Provider: Microsoft Driver Date: 11/14/1999 Driver version: 5.0.2183.1", which suggests to me that the update I just did was ignored. Can someone *please* give me a clue as to what I need to do????

Thanks, but I've had sp3 for a while now. Nikon support has disowned me and won't talk to me anymore until I have a "supported" usb driver. I broke down last night and bought a cheap plastic compact card flash reader and everything works -- it even auto-starts the Nikon software when I pop in the cf card!
So I have a useable work-around, but I am still bugged that I can't get the update working for this motherboard/os. I don't want to give up on that just yet. I hate it when something that should work, doesn't!  X(

  • How to install USB driver for Windows?

    I'm trying to connect my LG VS980 phone to a Windows XP computer. I'm having difficulty installing the USB driver.
    After following several false trails, I found what I think is the right file: on a "Product Support" page which says it's for a "G2 Verizon VS980," there's a button labeled, "Install the USB DRIVER / USB DRIVER for Windows / DOWNLOAD." I clicked the button and downloaded a file 8 MB file. Its name is LG. Not LG.exe or LG.msi or LG.zip. Just LG.
    When I double click the file, Windows quite reasonably asks me what program to use to run it. I don't know what program to use any more than Windows does.
    There's a link labeled "Instructions... LG G2 VS980 SOFTWARE UPDATE below the download button. When I click it, it loads instructions for installing software on the phone.
    Can anyone make sense of this for me?

    I'll so my best to answer the questions.
    >...what you're looking to do a transfer with...?
    Initially I want to download pictures taken with the phone's camera. I've considered other uses for a USB connection that I can explore once it's working. I'm puzzled by the question, though. Why should the type of data I want to transfer affect the fact that I can't find an installable driver? I wonder whether my question means the same thing to you as it does to me.
    Because photos and music are the basic media people want to transfer between their phones and computers. (Computers in this sense are laptops, desktops, note books etc.) So the question to you was valid.
    >Also, have you tried any other computers?
    No. Again, I'm puzzled. What difference would another computer make? Would I be able to find a download from one computer that I can't find from another? (Only by blind chance.) Might another computer be able to execute or load a file with no filetype? (Only if it has magical powers.)
    Different computers may work where the computer you own evidently does not work. It is good to check the connection of the device to another computer to rule that out. I will answer the obvious of different operating systems and how they function.
    >And which software version if your phone currently running?
    That question makes sense. Unfortunately I can't answer it. I've looked up how to find the version number, and the instructions tell me to select an "About phone" item in the Settings menu, which doesn't exist.
    Doesn't exist? open the Settings Menu go all the way to the bottom (scroll down) the last entry is "ABOUT PHONE" click it. It will give hardware and software versions operating system number etc. Its there trust me. My wife just bought this phone and loves it.
    >Often times, the device drivers you're prompted to install are supported solely by the computer's software.
    I'm not sure what you're saying here. Taken at face value, it's a trivial and obvious: any driver that one installs on any computing device is supported solely by (i.e., depends on) the device's software. But how does that relate to the question about the version of Android? Android runs on the phone; the driver has to run on the computer.
    You stated you are using an older Windows XP computer, I can tell you I hooked my wife's phone to our Windows 8.1 computer and no drivers were necessary. It came up with an option on the phone screen and I chose USB Mass Storage for the connection. This option is also in the phones settings. Read the manual it has loads of information form you to use.
    The device had a drive letter assigned and it was labeled LG-Network and once you double click it the folders for music, photos, etc. are all there. Via using windows manager you can simply do a copy and paste to and from the different folders and drives with ease.
    Good Luck

    Hi,
    I am using my Late 2012 rMBP also in bootcamp with windows 7 64-bit
    Often I see a popup from the NVidia Control Panel saying that a new update is available. Most of the time, the update adds new game profiles and such... I only use my Mac for CAD. But sometimes they also fix bugs or improve routines...
    I know I am "safe" to ignore these messages.
    But is it also "not recommended" (or even "dangerous") to install these updated drivers?
    Probably, the included driver in the bootcamp driver pack is tweaked for these MBPs.... but is it?

  • How to enable USB drive and CDwrite in Trusted Solaris.

    hello
    I installed Trusted Solaris extensions in an X86 desktop and after that the cdwrite disappeared, the usb drive is not detected.
    How do I enable the CD writer and the zip drive ? I have a file to be copied urgently, the USB drive doesn't work, the CD writer is not seen on the menu and internet / email is still not functional on this desktop
    If there are some commands to be typed, please give me step by step instructions with command syntax and if there is a file to be altered please let me know where to find that file to be altered.
    Thank you.

    Hi Amit,
    It's the same for Solaris. Take care about the line breaks in the document (sometimes one command seems to be two commands, it's one with parameters) and there is also a small bug: On page 6, step 5, it must read "Directory = topicmaps/example" (as printed in the screenshot).
    Hope it helps

  • How to update webcam driver?

    I've ArchLinux installed with v4l-utils 0.8.8-1 and gspca_zc3xx webcam driver v2.13.0 . The driver is installed as a kernel module, and I can detail it with  modinfo gspca_zc3xx command. This driver version is now outdated, and it doesn't support correctly Auto Gain and Exposure controls in my webcam Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX. On the developer's site in Webcam GSPCA driver V4L version 2 section there is an updated version of this driver v2.15.18, and I found the thread gspca_zc3xx possible options in Mint lxde 12? claiming the above issues were fixed in it.
    Can someone explain with code examples, how to update the webcam driver in my ArchLinux installation step by step? Webcam Setup ArchLinux Wiki lists various drivers, but come very short on explaining how to install them or update already installed driver. Is there a Wiki on how to install or update any device drivers in ArchLinux?

    I think you should since the kernel owns the files. Also, the file you linked is beta, so it is likely no one will,add this to the official package for you.  What I don't know is how best to handle this.
    1) rebuild the Linux package except manually delete those files for the build prior to packaging.
    Or
    2) make a new PKGBUILD for just this new driver and somehow handle the file conflicts outside of pacman... Not recommended in my mind.
    Perhaps someone else can offer and alternative solution but for now I think that option 1 is your best bet.

  • How to update NIDAQmx driver in Labview RT?

    Dear members,
    I have a problem  to make my NI PCI 6289 card working in Labview RT.
    Namely when I run the self test appears an error number -88716.
    The screenshot says that  the NIDAQmx drivers on the host and on the target are different.
    It suggests to update the driver to correct the error.
    Now I have checked. On the host I have the NIDAQmx8.5.1f2 driver on the RT target the NIDAQmx8.5.1.
    The question I want to ask is. How can I update the driver on the RT target to the other version?
    Since I have installed the RT system just yesterday I can't imagine that I have done some updates on the host which are not done on the target.
    Someone has an idea how to override the error?
    Thanks
    Principiant  
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The NI support solved my problem here is the link with the solution.

    In the download page, just download the first  link NIDAQmx 8.7.1 not the runtimes at the end of the page.
    Thanks for the help .

  • [SOLVED]How exactly are USB drives mounted?

    When I plug in a USB drive, Cinnamon brings up the device in Nemo so I can see its files. The location it's mounted at is /run/media/<username>/<long string I assume to be a UUID>/. How is it that I can mount it again at another directory and use it from there? Also, when I unmount it from the second directory, is it already safe to remove it or do I need to unmount it from the first one as well?

    That's the way I had it on my 8.04. I remember having to set that myself though.

    I had it mounted at that default location and then I had mounted it onto ~/mnt (I recreated /mnt in my home directory)
    tomk wrote:You seem to lack some understanding about your own system. If your USB devices are automounted when you plug them in, that's because you configured your system to do that. The fact that you are asking how that works should worry you IMO.
    I never configured my system to do that. When I used Arch and XFCE, I don't remember USB drives being automatically mounted. I had to do it myself. Cinnamon apparently does it automatically. What I wanted to know was why, if it does it automatically, does mount not give me an error about trying to mount the same partition again in a different place.
    Thanks for your answers everybody.

  • Security question, how to disable USB drives?

    Hi. We´re implementing security measures on our small office, and in the account settings I´ve disabled cd burning for a given account, but I also want to diable the use of USB drives except for the compnay one. Is there a way to achieve this? Thanks

    Just FYI no matter how many securities you put on a USB port, there is always a way around it, but you can buy usb lock plug ins online. They are called USB locks. I don't know where to find them off the top of my head. they plug into the usb connector in the back of your computer.

  • Please advise me how to update audio driver for windows 7 32bit....my computer is dv4 1428dx

    HP PAVILON DV4 1428dx company installed OS is vista...Upgrade to windows 7 -32bits
    I have been having troubles like BSOD, NETIO.sys and computer crashes evey 5minutes.
    it is now stable without any problems and only the sound driver refuses to install.
    Please advise how to update driver for W7 as it is not available on the HP site.

    Hi:
    Did you try the Vista driver?  Normally they work fine for W7.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-69143-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...=
    Another thing you can try is to be connected to the internet. Click on the audio controller in the device manager. Click on the Driver tab.  Click on Update Driver and select the automatic search.
    Sometimes W7 will pull down a driver from the Windows Update site.
    If the above 2 suggestions don't work, try this driver which seems to be the same as the Vista one, but for Windows 7.

  • How to eject USB drive?

    I have a USB drive that doesn't want to eject.  It get the error that it is in use and can't be ejected.  Yet, nothing is using it.
    I'm trying to eject through Finder.  Any ideas how to resolve this?

    Worked just fine.  Thanks.
    Funny how Apple tech support can never solve anything.  After an hour, they'll finally say, force quit everything, restart then restore to factory defaults.  That's the common workflow.  Get out the big hammer.

  • How to Update the driver of your graphics card

    When I open Photoshop CC, I get this message:
    "3D features require a minimum of 512MB of vRAM. Photoshop has detected less than that on your system. Updating the driver of your graphics card may resolve the issue."
    I went to the website they recommended but found nothing about this. How can I determine if this is the problem? How do I find out how much vRAM I have? How do I update the driver of my graphics card?

    You cannot upgrade the GPU except by buying a newer model with a better GPU. Normally, with shared RAM the GPU will have a maximum of 384 MBs of VRAM with 4 GBs of installed RAM. That will increase by about 128 MBs per 2 GBs of additional installed RAM.

    at /Volumes/FreeAgent Drive because the following problem occurred:
    /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.kext faailed to load - (libkern/kext) link error, check the system/kernel logs fir errors or try kextutil(8). the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)

    Other t han Paragon NTFS for OS X which has been supported and works fine the others have had trouble since 10.7.3 era.
    I use both Paragon NTFS and also their HFS+ for Windows. The demo is fully functional for 10 days and is under  $20 (may be on sale too).
    The software that some drive cases come with are often the source of trouble and best not  to install, and to reformat the drive as well.
    I believe Paragon has a utility to convert a drive to/from NTFS and HFS but check their site.
