Installing driver to slave OS?

I have an issue, my mothers onboard usb has failed (yes I'm sure)I only have USB ports, no PS/2
I've opened the PC up and there are only PCI-E slots (x3) no PCI
I bought a PCI-E USB card, problem is when I start up PC I need keyboard or mouse to install the driver.
I tried connecting to it via my laptop with Remote Desktop Connection, I get the message it isn't running on the PC
I tried connecting to the PC via my laptop on starting the service via computer management, get told access denied, something about error 5.
I've installed the driver on my laptop, which finishing the install, to get the .inf , .dll etc files and copy them into the windows inf folder, but this didn't work, install failed on startup.
Is there a was to take my PC HDD out, connect it to my Laptop as a slave and connect to it somehow to install the driver?

Hi Dhevo,
Usually the windows update will install the driver for the new devices automatically if there is a released driver included in the windows update. For your situation ,it is apparent that we need to install the driver manually.
"I tried connecting to it via my laptop with Remote Desktop Connection, I get the message it isn't running on the PC.I tried connecting to the PC via my laptop on starting the service via computer management, get told access denied, something about
error 5."
It seems that we haven`t configured the machine for remote desktop connection .
"I've installed the driver on my laptop, which finishing the install, to get the .inf , .dll etc files and copy them into the windows inf folder, but this didn't work, install failed on startup."
To install a driver ,this method is not practical.There are some registry keys should be modified.
Here is a link for reference :

"Is there a was to take my PC HDD out, connect it to my Laptop as a slave and connect to it somehow to install the driver?"
I am afraid this is not available ,we may meet with activation issues if we connect it to another machine and boot it up.
I am afraid the only option is to look for a PS/2 mouse to operate the machine.

  • Problems with Vista installing driver for

    Just bought the 6 G ZEN and have installed the supplied software for the device and when I connect the device to the PC Vista starts to Install Driver Software. I then get an error message 'Device driver was not installed successfully, please consult manufacturer for assistance getting this device installed.'
    I also tried downloading the updated software from?the Creative website?and installing this on my PC, however I get the same error message.
    When I go in to the control panel and to the device manager, there are two new portable devices with errors:
    . Creative ZEN, with error message: 'Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 9)'
    2. Unknown device, with error message: 'This device is not configured correctly. (Code )'
    Hope somebody can help me out with this. (I tried to send this message to support by completing the online email form, however upon submitting the form (URL: http://dmzrespapp.europe.creative.com/kana/FRH) I get a screen saying Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage)

    i'm afraid the issue could be due to the pc as the nati've driver on the vista computer might be corrupted.
    but to confirm that, you can access to recovery mode to do clean up to have a try.
    also you can still upgrade the latest firmware on the xp computer to see the results.
    i hope the above can help you.

  • How to check netwok whether install driver in mac 8.6

    i want to set tcp/ip. But connect via field no "Ethernet" for me to choose in TCP/IP. So, i want to check network card whether install driver.
    My mac is mac8500. The Specifications below:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=112374
    What is AAUI? What different from 10baseT and AAUI?

    When that Mac was designed, there were still big arguments going on about which cabling scheme would be most popular for users in the future. Dual Baseband coaxial cables, Single or dual Broadband Cable TV cables, and point-to-point twisted pair cables using RJ45 Jacks were all still possible options.
    AAUI is a 14-pin Ethernet Interface with the Transceiver left off. You could buy transceivers for each of the existing media listed above, to adapt it for the different cabling schemes.
    Since your Mac has a Built-in RJ45 twisted pair jack, you should use that. Since it is built-in, you should find an Extension for "Built-In Ethernet" in your System Folder > Extensions. If you do not, you may be able to re-install Mac OS, and select just to re-install the "Networking" part of the software.

  • Cannot find the installed driver for Canon Pixma ip6600D

    Hello,
    I'm pretty new with Mac and OS X and got one problem to use a previous installed driver.
    First, please excuse my bad english, I'll do my very best
    I've got a Buffalo Linkstation Live 320GB with implemented USB Ports.
    You can take the USB Port to use with a printer.
    The Linkstation will be a Windows Printserver.
    I've connected a Canon Pixma ip6600D at USB Port one and all works fine with Windows XP and Vista via network.
    Printing with this Network device uses Windows Network-printing like -> workgroup\buffalo\lp (lan printer)
    With Windows this works very well. But now im using OS X Leopard.
    So I've downloaded the Canon Mac OS X 10.5 Driver for the ip6600D (can be used for Network printing) and installed it.
    OS X wants to reboot, so I think the extension is installed fine.
    After this im going to "System adjustments" -> "Printers and Fax" -> "Windows" -> "Workgroup" -> "buffalo" -> "lp"
    The Printer is found and here comes my problem: The ip6600D driver does not appear in the drop down list. Only Gutenprint ip6700.
    I'm able to print with this driver, but it doesn't work very well and im not able to use CD printing.
    So, wehere ist the ip6600D driver? Lost in nowhere?
    If I want to search for the driver, nothing could be found.
    Searching with Spotlight for ip6600 doesn't find something to use.
    Only the installer image of the driver and some web links.
    How do I choose the installed ip6600D driver?
    Thank you much for any help.

    Since there doesn't appear to be an iP6600 driver within the Gutenprint v5.1.3 list, then you could try one of the other iP models, like the iP5200. The key is to find a model that uses the same ink tanks as your iP6600D (and preferably the same engine but that is not as easy to find). If one of the other IP models doesn't help, then you could try the S800. With older versions of Gutenprint I would recommend this model as it would be good enough for text printing, but not that good for images.
    If you are unable to find a compatible printer then you may have to look at changing some things. The Canon printer driver has not been designed to be used on the Mac OS X when the printer is being shared by Windows, hence the need to Gutenprint. If this model is not supported in later versions of Gutenprint, then you could look at using PrintFab (which you will have to pay for) or changing the network setup so that the printer is not connected to Windows, such as getting an Airport Express/Extreme. This would allow both OS's to connect to the printer using the Canon driver. Or you could connect the printer to the Mac and get Windows to connect to the Mac share using Bonjour for Windows.

  • My Windows 7 Ultimate {32bit} does not install driver for my LG HDD HXD5 320GB

    My windows 7 does not install driver for my LG EXTERNAL HDD HXD5 320GB & its attached using a USB.
    It works perfectly on Other computers having Windows 7 & Windows XP & Windows Vista, just doesn't work on mines.
    I have had internet connected when it was installing hence it got the opportunity to search Windows Update for it but it fails :(
    It works even on my computer ( I have DUAL OS) on windows XP SP3 but i need it to work in Windows 7.
    Please help Thanks :)
    & i have already tried tried the solution which was proposed for another topic in this forum on which it was to Uninstall the driver using Device Manager and unplug the HDD and attach again and let the computer detect and install it again, my computer
    does detect it but fails to install the drivers.
    My Computer has a 2GB of RAM & 2.40GHZ (32bit) with an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and had come with Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit installed, & i upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit which is completely updated to all the Updates that Microsoft
    had offered (using the built in Windows Update in Control Panel)
    I have got screen shots of it too.
    http://shumayal.fileave.com/HDD.zip
    PS: Same is the case with some of my USB Flash drives, but in their case they don't get detected at all but get in Windows XP SP3 (which is another OS on my pc) as well as on windows 7 and other OS on OTHER COMPUTERS but not mines in Windows 7.
    Thanks :)

    Hi,
    I recommend you try to update the BIOS and the motherboard chipset drivers for Windows 7 firstly.
    After that, please refresh the USB Stack:
    Control Panel – Device Manager – USB Serial Controllers – Right Click on EVERYTHING and UNINSTALL all except the category itself – Reboot
    . This refreshes the drive and the USB stack
    Then, right click on the LG EXTERNAL HDD HXD 5 320GB in Device Manager and select Update Driver Software.
    You may also try the Windows 7 built-in
    Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.
    Hope it can help you!

  • Error installing Driver for audio device in MS-6585 Motherboard

    Hi,
    I have MS-6585 Max L motherboard. I installed windows 2000 with SP4. When I tried to install driver for the audio device, it always fails with the following error.
    An error occurred during the installation of the device.
    The data is invalid.
    And in the Device status in the properties menu
    The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
    I tried to download the latest driver using the "Live Update" and it didn't help. I tried few other options suggested in the web.
    The usual cause of this problem in Windows 2000/XP systems is Registry keys that are set as read-only.
    From the Start menu, click Run and enter RegEdit to run the Registry Editor. Open the following - Keys => HKey_Local_machine => System => CurrentControlSet => Enum => PCI.
    You will see several keys in this form - Ven_xxxx - where xxxx represents a string such as - 1102&Dev_004&Subsys_00011103&Rev_04.
    In each of these folders there is another folder that has a long numerical name. Open each of these folders, and look for the DeviceDesc entry that matches the type of hardware that you are trying unsuccessfully to install. Use the right mouse button to click on the Ven_xxxx entry for that device, and click Permissions. If it is set to read-only, then that is the cause of the problem. To rectify it, change it to Allow Full Control.
    I'm stuck and I am not sure what else to try. Its not clear to me where the problem is. Is there any log I can look? Any other suggestions please
    BTW, It used to work..I had to reinstall windows 2000 and after the clean/format reinstallation it stopped working.
    thanks for any help
    Suresh

    It might be that the drivers are for WinXP. Are you 100% sure they are for 2000? Can you get a copy of XP, it would prabobly solve youre problem.

  • Windows XP SP 3 does not recognize HP Scanjet 3770 after downloading and installing driver

    Hello !
    I have a second hand HP Scanjet 3770 scanner.
    After downloading and installing driver there is only 1 icon on my desktop - Image Zone.
    There is not icon of HP Director software, neither on desktop nor in C:\Program files\HP folder
    Windows XP SP 3 does not recognize HP Scanjet 3770 after downloading and installing driver (Image Zone software)
    There is another scanning HP device installed on the same computer - all-in-one HP Photosmart C 4280
    What I have to do ?
    Thank you !

    Some things that pop in my head- your CD/DVD drive may need cleaning (laser eye). There are discs to do this or you can use a cotton swab sometimes to wipe the laser. OR- the last recovery may have been the last fatal strain on the CD/DVD drive and it is now not functioning. Maybe you could borrow the drive from the other Dv4 and try it- or  borrow/buy a USB CD/DVD drive to try.
