Lenovo S410p accidentally deleted NVIDIA Driver from device manager

Hello,
I "accidentally" uninstalled my NVIDIA GeForce 720M driver from my device manager when I tried to reinstall the driver. Now it no longer shows up on the device manager at all, and I cannot install any driver since the laptop does not detect it anymore.
I am running Windows 8.1 64bit on a Lenovo ideapad s410p laptop. The only graphics driver detected is the intel one. And since I'm using a laptop, re-plugging in the graphics card is not really a feasible option either...
System restore does not work (The oldest backup, somehow, is AFTER the uninstallation), and I really do not want to resort to factory reset... And of course, before the uninstallation, the driver worked just fine.
Is there any way I can force the laptop to detect the GPU again? I am pretty sure the hardware is working fine, just undetected
Please help, I have no idea what else to do at this point. Thank you in advance..
Solved!

hi Votbear,
Welcome to lenovo Community Forums!
Can you check under Drive D: if you still have the drivers folder back up
Try looking for the Video Graphics driver installer and install that.
In case you can't find the driver folder or the system does not have a D: drive
Try downloading the driver here, see if those work
NVIDIA VGA Driver for 32-bit Windows
NVIDIA VGA Driver for 64-bit Windows

Help I deleted my Bluetooth from device manager

Well trying to connect a controller things got messing and I tried to re-install my bluetooth by deleting it from device manager but, now downloading the drivers does nothing.
Also my computer is a lenovo y50-70

Hi,
Did you mean the Bluetooth was missing from device manager? How did you delete it?
Open the Device Manger, click View -> Show hidden devices to see if it appear.
If it's not listed, find a category named Other devices under Device Manager to see if it appear there.
If the issue still persist, Please remove the device driver from “Control Panel – Programs and Features”, reboot the computer and see if the device will appear. If it still won’t appear, please try to install the driver for the Bluetooth device again and
click Action -> Scan for hardware changes to check the result.

Bluetooth driver uninstalled from device manager

This has been highly frustrating but here goes, I recently bought a small bluetooth dongle from ebay that came with no drivers as it is labeled as plug and play, when I plugged it into my laptop it found it straight away but installed it as a bluetooth radio, i was advised by a friend to uninstall the bluetooth radio driver from device manager and download bluesoleil which is what i did. now blue soleil does not recognise the device and the laptop tells me Usb Device Not Recognized, i have searched and searched for fixes but nothing has helped, could anyone advise or provide me with the correct software, this is not a branded device either so device specific software is unavailable.
Please help, p.s im using windows xp sp3.
Thanks

Just download the latest Bluetooth stack for your operating system. Extract the it and execute the exe file. Follow the instructions.
You can transfer your files easily by using the file exporer when the bluetooth software is installed again.
Just right-click on the file which should be sent and select "to Bluetooth" from the context menu ...
or
Right click on the bluetooth icon in the system tray can select Bluetooth Information Exchanger. Discover the bluetooth devices by using the Bluetooth menu and use e.g. the OPP folder to drag and drop the file to you mobile phone. You can also use ftp if you mobile phone supports it. You can transfer
serveral files at once with it.
or
just use the synchronisation software if your mobile phone offers one.

Is it possible to delete iCloud drive from ios8 device

I updated my iPad to IOS8, not thinking I said yes to iCloud drive. I use my iPad to type minutes at a meeting and then complete them on my iMac. Since I do not have Yosemite yet, if I type on my iPad will I not be able to access the document on my Mac? I have all my completed documents saved on my mac but will any new ones be lost in space if they are started on the iPad? Is it possible to delete iCloud drive from the iPad. I know I can turn it off, but that won't help. Maybe I will be lucky and Yosemite will come out before my next meeting. It looks like I could probably email a copy from my iPad to my iMac as a pages doc. and then be able to open it in pages.
Thanks
Judy

Hi David:
Thanks. I see that I could open in icloud pages and I guess work on it there. I have never worked that way before. Can you save it back to the mac? or just to iCloud? And I have to send out copies to board members which, I guess, can be done there. Thanks for your input. I feel so stupid,; I even saw the "small print". Oh well.

I accidentally deleted a driver and now my wireless will not work at all.

in a state of frustration i accidentally deleted a driver. I think it was the astero driver and i downloaded it again via the hp website. it is installed, but my internet isn't (i'm using a friends verizon card). i don't know if my deletion of that driver/software did something severe and i have no idea how to get my wireless back working.

Please download and install the driver from the following weblink:

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

I accidentally deleted the pictures from my itouch 5, is there a way that i can retrieve it? i don't have a back up of it in icloud.

- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- A data recovery company may be able to get them. Not cheap.

If you have your ipad backed up, you can restore it (You'd need to make sure your backup predated your deletion).

They aren't supposed to.

Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it

How to delete a photo from Device-Work/photos

How to delete a photo from Device-Work/photosI saved a photo from my work email account (it's a picture of a golf green) and afterward, I noticed that I can't really do anything with it.
How do you delete files from the "work" side of the phone?
Also curious why these files are even there if you can't do anything with them...what's the point?

i didnt even know there was a work side to the phone.
its my personel phone but i use it for work as well but dont have a work email set up as its the national health nhs.net and there is so much protection that i couldnt be bothered with it.
only way i think you could get round this problem is sending the email with the attachment to one of your personel emails like yahoo which if you have that set up on your phone and save the attached picture it will automatically be saved in your pictures folder.

Was it backed up somewhere? If yes you can restore from your backup and get the note back.
