Hp update, now codec stwrt64.sys driver is gone

I did an HP update and now my IDT High Def. Audio codec is gone. Error(52) driver stwrt64.sys is the driver missing.
This is for an HP Pavilion g6 series g6-1c56nr. Windows 7 64 bit.

Hi @pravoby ,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).

Upgraded to 10.8.1 and now my WD external drive has gone "bad".

Worked well last night when I moved large files on to it to make room for Creative Cloud apps...
Then this morning after installing 10.8.1 upgrade and restarting, it didn't appear and is unreadable.
Disk utility said it could not repair it.
Have gone to the WD site, downloaded and upgraded the firmware & software, the WD diagnostics seems to be stuck
on the 90% complete mark.
Do you think this is Mountain Lion or do I need to have the external hard drive taken to a place that
can (hopefully) take off all of my client files and time machine backups (ouch!)
Thanks so much!

MommaKaren,
I'm in the same situation, certainly it's a problem with Moutain Lion. I did a rollback to Lion yesterday and my HD MyBook worked as usual.
It's not the first time that WD have this kind of compatibility issues with Apple OS, It seems like everytime Apple makes major chages in its core OS the problems apears.
I'll wait for a solution from Apple (system update) or WD (firmware update).
WD is denying this compatibility issue, but everyday the number of users with the same problem increase, thus expect a solution pretty soon.

Help! Updated FW to 2.4 - Drive contents gone!

Last night I updated to 2.4 and my movies disappeared! I have 4 movies I purchased off iTunes and they are gone! I also had some content I created but I have backups for those. How do I get the movies re-downloaded?
I know in iTunes you have to purchase them again - but you can back up your iTunes directory (and I do) - The movies I purchased were only playable on the Apple TV

Apple TV should be backing up anything you bought via the ATV (this is how it works) to your iTunes library on your computer (if you have it set up to work with your iTunes library). They should not of only of been on your ATV.
However, there are links in your receipts you get emailed on how to contact them and explain the firmware got rid of them prior to your ATV backing up to your iTunes library and they can push them to your downloads again so they will download next time you access iTunes (..well they have ability but you need to contact them and they have to agree).

Updated to 10.9.2 and now my WD hard drive fails to backup from Time Machine

Yesterday I updated my software so now I am running 10.9.2 on a mid 2010 MacBook Pro. After the update, my WD 1tb hard drive won't backup. It says "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder" Please help! I don;t know how to fix it and the information I found online was confusingly unhelpful!
Thank you in advance, a stressed student!

Do you have any westerndigital software installed? If yes, uninstall it and restart.
I have several WD disks and they behave perfectly.
TM having problems with finishing backup ofcourse will not eject or free up the disk! It might corrupt your TM backup.

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again. If the problem remains, update to 10.6.8 and repeat.

Error trying to update to itunes 10.6.3 & now 10.7 (e drive?)

Error trying to update to itunes 10.6.3 & now 10.7 (e drive?)
I've been having this problem for a while (maybe a couple of months) and avoided it until I updated my iPad and iPhone to iOS 6. Now they won't sync! :|
At first it was simply collapsing after the install process. I've tried again tonight and it is saying that it has an E drive error. I've tried to use the instructions on other discussions (using Run, CMD, and mapping the E drive to C) - but, I don't actually have an E drive. My c used to be split into two, including an E drive, but it has since been returned to one single drive. (I'm a teacher, the IT manager at school sorted this - managing one drive is easier for me to keep it working well - until now).
Itunes was reinstalled and set up simply in the C drive, but could there be something remaining from it's previous install? Help?!?
Thanks,
Luke

many thanks.
There's a few suggestion other than using SUBST at the command prompt given in the following user tip:
"Invalid drive X:\" install errors
Do any of the alternate methods work for you?

I recently updated my Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

I recently updated my 20-inch, Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

Can you see them in Disk Utility?
If so, can you select and Mount them?
If not, disconnect them, reset the iMac's SMC and then reconnect them.
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
3. Wait fifteen seconds.
4. Attach the computer's power cord.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
If you still can not see them, connect them back up to the iMac running the older OS, open Disk Utility and look to see how they are partitioned and formatted.

whats the format on the external HD?
verify same on another Mac, its likely a dead SATA card inside the external enclosure.
One assumes you arent referring to a 2012 Air with a Toshiba SSD, since the Air contains no hard drives, only a SSD.
2013 Air use Sandisk or Samsung SSD.

FCP 10.0.1 update now crashes every time I launch it!

FCP update now crashes every time I launch it! Won't even open a project I started last week with version 10.0.0.
I have a deadline at work so I've now got a big problem! I'm trying to give the new and supposedly improved FCPX a shot but this app is turning out to be a real hack. What other professional video editing software do you guys use? Anyone use Premier Pro? I have Premier pro and think I should probably start my new projects in it. As I said....this app is a real mess.
FYI: Same problem for my 1 year old MacBook Pro (8G ram, i7 processor) AND my Mac Pro (16G ram, 2 x 3GHz quad core processors, 4-1TB hardrives.

I don't know who these friends are, but they're certainly misinformed and they don't appear to be doing you any favours.
There are a great number of professional editors who have used Final Cut Pro since version 4 - but took the trouble to
a. Find out the system and install requirements for FCP X
b. Watch professional tutorials such as Ripple Training and actually LEARN how to use this ground breaking new application.
They (and I) are having very few issues with FCP X - especially since the update.
If you're getting crashes, autosave problems etc, there is more than likely some conflict on your system drive.
Create a new (admin) user on your Mac system and try FCP X from there.
I did this, and FCP X worked perfectly on the new account, meaning there was definitely a conflict on my existing system.
To be absolutely certain my MacPro's system was squeaky clean, I then did a clean reinstall (not TimeMachine) and FCP X has worked reliably ever since.
FCP X application should be in your Applications folder and ideally, your project and events should all be on an external HD and not on your Mac system drive.
I have around 4000 clips distributed between six events at the moment and FCP X is coping very well most of the time.
It helps to work without the waveforms displayed as these slow things down considerably.
Do you have FC Studio or a version of FCP on the same drive partition as FCP X?
This is what Apple say on their current web page on installation practice:
"It is strongly recommended that you install Final Cut Pro X, Motion 5, and Compressor 4 on a startup disk that does not have Final Cut Studio (2009) already installed. Use Apple's preferred installation procedure when upgrading one version of Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Studio to the next. This procedure is not unique to Final Cut Pro X."
They do go on to say "if you must" have the two on the same partition, FCS must be located in a different folder - but I would have thought the words "strongly recommended" and "if you must" speak for themselves.

Network drives and System Update updating itself (Error 1327.Invalid Drive)

I have a Windows network share permanently mapped as a network drive on my system. This prevents Lenovo System Update 5 from updating itself.
Here is what happens:
Launch Lenovo System Update and click Next to look for updates.
When 'Searching for agent updates' it will tell me: 'System Update is updating itself. Your copy of System Update needs to be updated. Click OK to begin updating System Update.'
Click OK, Lenovo System Update will download the update and appear to install it.
At the end it will tell me: 'System Update was installed successfully'
Click Close, just to be sure I wait for a while so System Update can finish whatever it is doing in the background (if anything at all).
When nothing appears to happen I launch Lenovo System Update manually and it will tell me it needs to update itself again, and go to the same process as above. The update did not install successfully at all. System update keeps updating itself in a loop.
Next thing I tried is manually downloading the latest System Update version from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=TVSU-UPDATE
I downloaded systemupdate503-09-17-2013.exe for my Windows 7 machine.
The installer detects to old version of System Update and offers to uninstall that. I click Yes.
A moment later the real error appears: 'Error 1327.Invalid Drive: S:\'
The only thing I can do now is press OK to close the installer.
The S:\ drive is my network drive which is permanently mapped to a share on my NAS.
It is not an invalid drive, S:\ opens fine in Windows Explorer.
I don't know why the System Update installer wants to access my S: drive in the first place. All my applications are installed on C:. While I did move some special folders like My Pictures and My Videos to S:, the relevant folders My Documents and Desktop are still on C:.
I have found a workaround to the problem above:
Close Lenovo System Update completely when it says it needs to update itself.
Run Command Prompt as Administrator (find it in the start menu, righ-click it and 'Run as administrator').
Type 'subst s: c:\' without the quotes. Replace s: with the drive letter of your network drive, and c: should be an existing regular drive.
Now run Lenovo System Update again and let it update itself.
You'll notice System Update now restarts itself after updating and there are no problems.
Once you are done with System Update, type 'subst s: /D' to delete the substituted virtual drive. Don't worry, this will not delete your actual network drive.
The workaround does the job, but it would be nice to see an actual fix from Lenovo. I have a ThinkPad X230 running 64bit Windows 7 Professional if this is relevant.

Please try either of the workaround.
1. Create a new Admin user, log on in that and then you can install Adobe Reader,
or
2. easier solution is just create a dummy folder on your machine anywhere, lets says Folder name "Dummy" in c:\
not go to command prompt
and type subst I: c:\dummy
and you are all set to go.
once you are done, you can remove that virtual drive mapping by
subst I:\ /d
please let me know if works.

How do I Install an .sys driver file on windows 8.1?

I brought a pci-e laptop graphics card adapter of the internet and it requires me to install the graphics card driver software but I firstly have to install a vgapnp.sys driver file but I dont know how?

Hi Willimo,
The main issue is to install the graphic driver software ,right ?
There are two ways to get the driver, automatically update from the windows update or manually download the driver from the manufacturer website and install it from the device manager.
Please refer to the following link :
Download and install drivers

After installing itunes Windows 7 doesnt boot and stalls while loading atipcie.sys driver

After installing itunes my computer stalls when loading atipcie.sys driver. Computer will not boot up in safe mode or Last known good. Only resolution was to perform System Restore to a time before itunes was installed, thus deleting the itunes installation
Anyone know of a fix or workaround for this issue ?

Windows 7 64 bit core i7
BSOD while updating to iTunes 10 with suspended installation of Apple Mobile Device Support. Network drivers no longer working as a result. Attempted fix by downloading from a different machine and competing install via files transferred over on flash drive. No dice. Attempted removal of iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, Apple Software Update to see if this would fix. Followed this up with a restart. This seems to have improved matters as system is starting up faster. No dice. Try reinstall network drivers from Sony ViaoCare disk. Installed and restarted. No dice. Next, try Widows 7 Network and Sharing diagnostics. No dice. Next try manual removal & reinstall of network driver using Device Manager, restart. Can't seem to re-install Network Controller. Still trying to solve this.

How to tell Windows Update to disregard a faulty driver?

I have had to install Windows 10 Technical Preview 9926 as a clean build, as the update build installs would rollback because of a driver error.(Qualcomm Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Wireless Network Adapter)
The issue I am NOW having again with the Qualcomm Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Wireless Network Adapter.
Windows Update is now trying to update the driver again but getting "Windows Update 0x800f0203 error ",it will see the driver update, try to install, but it will failed every time it try's install the driver update
My question is how to tell Windows Update to disregard this faulty driver?

Same problem here,
Hewlett Packard Enterprise WSD Multi Function Printer, other hardware -NULL Print- HP Envy 5530 (driver)
gets error code 0x80070490 every time it tries to load. Then all the other drivers behind it default too. They stop the download. If the option to stall or ignore that one download where available the next downloads would go as planned.
The screenshot posted here overlooked one point......
The instructions I gave on the other thread was to "dot" Never install driver software from Windows Update.
