Internal TV tuner won't work on Windows 7

I managed to get the machine to work on Windows 7, hooray!, apparently the AverMedia A301-1 TV Tuner only works on Windows Vista, is there any way to make it work on 7?   I've tried reinstalling windows Vista as a dual-boot but that hasn't worked. Then I tried putting Vista on another hard drive from the restore disc, although it installs it ok, when it comes to using Windows Update which installs nearly 200 updates initially, on restart I get a blue screen with white text; "A problem has occurred....", blah, blah, then it restarts and on boot up I get it again and again - just goes round in circles.   I've now given up trying to reinstall Windows Vista which I clearly need if I want to watch television on the machine as things stand.  Can the TV tuner driver be updated to run with Windows 7?  God help me if I try to upgrade this machine to Windows 10, total disaster waiting to happen!

Hi @fair02 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv2815nr Entertainment Notebook and your Expresscard TV tuner not working correctly. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system to update.
Did you check to see if you system was compatible with Windows 8.1.? In the device manager try updating the  HP Digital/Analog TV Tuner.
Hope this helps you out.
Thanks.

    If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
    Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
    I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

  • Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7 anymore

    Hey there,
    I've got an iMac running OS X 10.6.8 and Windows 7 via Boot Camp. I just updated a bunch of the Apple stuff on Windows -- iTunes, Quicktime, "boot camp" (I assume that meant drivers and such), and whatnot. Now my Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7. It was fine before, so I assume the update screwed something up. Help? I know nothing of retrieving old drivers and stuff like that.
    Note: I am running Snow Leopard, NOT Lion.

    Assuming you want Apple to look at iPhone without a charge a good way to
    start is to show you have tried the standard troubleshooting as I
    suggested.
    These are described in the user manual and even under warranty
    the genius bar will expect these to have been tried before they spend time
    looking at an iPhone as normally these steps fix most issues
    However it is up to you

  • Adobe 6.0 won't work with windows 98

    I bought 6.0 without reading the fine print. When I tried to install it, I found out that I need Windows 2000 or higher. I can't upgrade to windows 2000 due to conflicts with other programs I'm running. Does anyone have any ideas on how to make 6.0 work with WIndows 98, or how to get an older version of Adobe?
    Thanks!

  • I ran the update and then firefox stopped working completely ggot a message about .dll that won't work with windows. tried toreinstall new copy of latest but they won't.

    I just ran the update to .4 as the dialog box said to. Now firefox won't work at all. Nothing happens I get a message about a .dll file that is incompatible. Tried to doanload a new copy but that doesn't get any further starting to extract files then it fails to finish. Any thing I can do or have I lost evrery thing including my bookmarked sites?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SIMBAR={7B37EC33-AF75-48D2-9930-4E9EF2ABA545}; Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) ; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729)

    Thank you,
    Morbus! It worked like you said. Anyway I think the problem starts with maybe needing to completely clean up my OS and drives as they keep "filling up" real fast - much faster than my usage. Uninstall wouldn't work so I just oened up programs and fond the .exe and then deleted it. Scary moment as I really have seen others so mess up everything doing this but download went well of new copy and yes I have all my bookmarks and settings. YAYS!! so thank you again. Also running so much faster and no glitches like tabs not working th way they should. In end I think I need to get an upgrade from Vista home basic. and just then add my files one at a time to see how all goes.

  • I have Windows 7, Mozilla older version won't stay without upgrading to Mozilla 5.0 Mozilla 5.0 won't work with Windows 7 please help

    I have a new Dell, Windows 7. IE and Chrome work beautifully (I had to install these to get onto the Internet since Mozilla won't work). Older versions of Mozilla worked for a few seconds, but then the auto update kicked in (to 5.0). I even tried to stop the auto updates immediately after installing an earlier version, that didn't work either. Mozilla will not allow me to enter text, lets me enter a few letters then freezes. Please advise. Thank you, Mary

    Hi Guys,
    I had this same problem too, and i want to share to all of you my own fix for this kind of problem;
    (READ FIRST: ''This step will wipeout everything that mozilla saved on your computer including : password, history and bookmarks''.)'''
    '''1. download the Revo Uninstaller''''''
    - quick step guide for this:
    select mozilla firefox, don't forget to uninstall everything that relates to mozilla including registry to clean them all up.
    '''2. download mozilla firefox again'''
    - AND REINSTALL. however on this stage, in some cases mozilla will not open at this stage.
    '''3. Uninstall Mozilla firefox again NOW using control panel.'''
    '''4. Restart the computer to refresh everything.'''
    '''5. Reinstall mozilla firefox again, once you have received the prompt for "exporting or importing etc.. etc.. from Microsoft" that means its already working.. it will take around 5-10 sec to load up (in my case) .'''

  • T420 Headphone Jack won't work in Windows 7

    Hi all,
            I've recently got a T420 4180A32 (Conexant CX20672) and the headphone jack doesn't work under Windows 7. It works when I boot (natively) into Ubuntu, but obviously when I run a Virtual Machine into Ubuntu through Windows, it doesn't work either.
    I have:
    - Uninstalled and reinstalled the driver version that came installed.
    - Installed,  Uninstalled and reinstalled a newer driver version.
    - Uninstalled the old driver and installed the new one.
    - Reverted to using the generic High Definition Audio driver. The speakers work fine but again, headphone jack doesn't.
    - Established that it obviously isn't a hardware problem.
    - Uninstalled then reinstalled DirectX
    - Tried various headphones on the off chance that they were the problem. They weren't.
    I haven't:
    - Done a full reinstall of windows 7 (although I might)
    - Tried Windows 8, although again, I might as I have an unused licence for it and I really want my headphones to work.
    That's about all the info I can give. Besides this problem, the laptop runs great!
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have now noticed that when using ubuntu the headphones work but that won't mute the speakers, so I am starting to think it could actually be the jack, as the headphones, as a device, arent dectected by ubuntu either, they just work because they are plugged in, I guess it's the way each OS works.
    Check if that happens in your computer as well. Also, where did you check the prices of compatible sound cards? Which should I buy? I may go to a Lenovo store to get it fixed.

  • Ff won't work on windows and can't get maintanence to work what do i do?

    ff says its compatible,but windows says otherwise.ff freezes in the middle of anything, manly while loading a page.maintanence won't work at all help me!

    How about trying a previous build of Firefox? Then, if that works, upgrade again to the next version until you find the culprit. Then, just stay with the previous build!

  • Bluetooth mouse won't work in windows

    I have a microsoft bluetooth notebook mouse 5000 that works well in mac osx but when I go to windows 7 in bootcamp it reports that the bluetooth hid device driver is not working and the mouse won't work.
    I can get it to detect the mouse and try to load the driver but then it says that the driver installation did not work.
    In device manager the bluetooth hid device has a warning icon next to it and it says that the device is not working.
    When I try to use my magic mouse in windows the same error happens and it says that the hid bluetooth device driver is not working.
    Both mice work fine in mac osx and the microsoft mouse was working ok in windows until last week.
    Since then, my son installed a couple of games in the windows side and the mouse started acting up the following day.
    Any advice would be very appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi!
    I suffered this problem time and time again, I kept on pairing/un-pairing/re-pairing etc. and then for no reason at all it suddenly worked. What happened I do not know. Be patient. First off use a wired keyboard and wireless mouse and if that works stay with it for a while. Then try both wireless. I found my mouse was more temperamental than the keyboard. You may have to try wireless keyboard and wired mouse (USB into the computer direct).
    Good luck let me know how it goes.

  • Solutions Center patch won't work. Windows 7 from Vista. C6280.Red

    I have a Dell Inspiron (Windows 7) and a C6280 on red with my husband's Hp Pavillion lap (Vista).  When I click Solutions Center to scan, a pop-up tells me I cannot do that just because. I have a CD for Vista since the lap is older than the Dell, when I try it Windows tells me to forget it. Then a window tells me Solutions Center won't work because I never finished installing something or "other".  If they mean PS_AIO_02_NetWired-FullWin_WW-130-140 I installed it 4 times. "Others" were many.  When I try the patch (dot4patch_reboot.exe) it immediately reboots  and... nothing else.  For rebooting my computer I don't need a patch, I'm obstruse but not that much. This is the 4th day I'm working at this and I'm desperate.   I'm thinking of throwing the whole rubble out of the window. In case I change that for myself: would a kind soul help me with this mess, please, please, pretty please?  You might have noticed I'm not very good at this kind of problem.  Therefore I have something extra to ask: make it simple?  Like Forums for Dummies?  Thank you so very much. Whether you can help me or not you had the patience to read all this.  Bless you.

    RitadeCasia,
    I am sorry it is not working.
    This part of your statement concerns me:
    "Only new happening today was an  HP window offering downloads, erasings and so forth with the image of a lovely Oriental girl."
    This Update message is not from HP.  HP does not offer any updates while showing the image of any lovely person.
    You might consider the following:
    The system may be infected with a Virus (corruption causing software) or Malware (essentially an unwanted or malicious program)
    Use your best Anti-Virus software and run the best, deepest scan that is offered.  When the first scan is complete, run your Anti-Virus again.
    Anti-Virus Software packages
    If you do not have Anti-Virus software, or if you need recommendations:
    Avast Anti-Virus   NOTE:  You may select the free version.  Avast "plays well with others:  it gets along with Windows Defender (the Microsoft Anti-Virus that comes standard on your computer.
    Recommendations provided by Microsoft for Anti-Virus software that works well with Windows 7 and most probably with Vista as well:
    Windows 7 consumer security software providers
    Malwarebytes software can help pull out, that is, it can extract and destroy those programs that do not belong on your computer.  Download and install the Free Version.  You might run it at least one time, perhaps twice.
    Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free
    After each time the computer is scanned, reboot / restart your computer and log in.
    ======================================================================================
    File System Scan -- sfc
    Assuming the computer is considered "cleaned" of unwanted virus and malware software, you might next complete a system Scan to help make sure the File System is healthy:
    Using System File Checker (SFC) to Restore System Files
    System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Wi...
    The sfc scan can be run more than one time to make sure it catches everything it can find.
    After the sfc scan completes, try your installations again.
    ======================================================================================
    New Backups -- System Recovery
    After the scans are completed and you are fairly confident that the system is clean, you will want to create a new backup of your personal data.   This is a backup of your Account, files, and any "extra" folders that you have created that is not part of the Vista Operating System.
    You do not want to over write any previous backups this time.  Example:  If you have a backup of your data on a USB stick that you made last month, two months ago -- or any time before the problems began, then you should KEEP that older backup and make a new backup on a different USB drive. 
    In other words:  You need to make new backups -- but you may not yet be able to trust them 100%; keep the older backups along with the new ones.  IF you end up having to run a full Recovery on the computer, you will then have a choice about which personal backups to load after the recovery is complete.
    Recovery
    If you cannot fix the persistant problems on your computer, you may have to run a full Recovery to reinstall your Vista Operating System.  Please READ all the following documents before you run a Recovery.
    You may NOT need to run the Recovery if you can fix the problems and your computer is again "acting normally".  I am providing the Recovery information in case you need it.
    Reminder:  A full Recovery is destructive -- the Recovery procedure removes your data, removes the Operating System, and then reinstalls Vista.  You must then complete additonal Recovery steps to load your personal data into place on the computer. **
    ** The exception:  IF you have created (previously) a full IMAGE backup, you can use it to restore your computer to that exact condition.  A full Image contains not only the Vista OS, it also contains all your personal data, your programs, and everything else that was on the main disk when the Image was created.
    If you do not already have an Image, you will be using other means to Recover the system back to working order.
    Documents to Help with Backups and Recovery
    The first document shows you how to use the computer's programs to make personal backups.   This is not the Recovery procedure -- it is something you do BEFORE you run the Recovery.  This procedure is related to Recovery in that it is preparation work you do ahead of time to protect your data.
    Reminder:  Do not overwrite your previous backups -- IF your system is infected AND the Anti-Virus programs cannot  completely fix the problem, then you still need to make backups, but you also need to understand that they may not be 100% safe or complete.  You can use the new backups, just know that IF they are later found to be infected, you will be depending on your older backups to restore your personal data  -- you need to keep both old and new personal backups on hand and ready to use.
    Use Windows Basic Backup and Restore Center to Back Up Files in Vista
    The above doc calls:
    How to Back Up Your Files (Windows Vista or XP)
    This document shows you how to run the Recovery procedure -- this is the "destructive part" that removes and then reinstalls Vista.
    Recover Windows Vista Operating System Using HP Recovery – Notebooks
    This document explains what steps are necessary to completely restore your computer after you complete the initial Recovery of the Vista Operating System:  installing personal programs (Firefox) and personal files (your personal documents and pictures).
    NOTE that you will need on hand:  Downloads or CDs of your programs that are not part of Vista.  For example, if you have installed a Photo Editing software, you will need to reload it after the Recovery.

  • HP Officejet 6500A won't work with Windows 10

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 on my HP Pavilion and now my HP Officejet 6500A printer won't work.  Do you have any updates to solve this issue?Thanks.

    I have the same issue with my OJ 6500 (network connected).  And I've been just been sent on a wild goose chase to install the support assistant - which didn't actually resolve my issue.  When I go directly to the drivers, it recognizes my OS as Windows 10, but doesn't give me a matching driver package to download... How/when will this be resolved? Does anyone have a workaround?If I knew that my printer/scanner doesn't work anymore I certainly wouldn't have upgraded to Windows 10.  Win 8.1 wasn't perfect, but at least everything worked... Thanks for any suggestions!
