Lexmark x5495 and windows 7 - driver problem

Hi, I have windows 7 and just got a printer - lexmark x5495
unfortunately Windows cant find the right driver 4 the printer via windows update...
I have downloaded driver for win 7 32, 64 bit, windows vista even windows xp and non of them is good!!! :(
I was looking all over google for somebody to solve that problem and nothing!
on the lexmark and windows websites it says printer is compatible but must be something wrong with driver
btw it works 100% under win xp and it is not any printer spool problem...
can somebody help me, please
Could you be more specific when you mention none of the drivers is good? Is there any exclamation mark in device manager for the printer? And what makes you think the problem lies with the drivers and not the printer itself or the way you setup the drivers?
Suggest you to uninstall the printer drivers from device manager, next reboot your pc and ensure the printer is power on and plug in, next let windows 7 detect and assign drivers by itself instead of using the drivers downloaded.
If still no go after the above, run the drivers in xp or vista compatble mode under windows 7

Business printers and devices have driver problem

My biggest problem after installation of 10.5 is that I use my laptop in a prepress business and I lost nearly all of my print drivers. I did a rights repair and still no luck. I'm guessing that none of the high end business copier printers we have in the shop have 10.5 drivers. If so I'm kind of aggravated. Why would they make 10.5 so incompatible with IO devices. Doesn't make any sense. It's a guarantee for a ton of customer service problems.
It also hung while entering form data and I had to hard reboot it. That almost never happened with 10.4. Getting more of the spinning wheels than I would like as well. No reason for them that I can see.

Windows XP driver problem - Nomad Zen Xtra and Zen To

I have both a Nomad Zen Xtra 60GB and a Zen Touch 20GB, both of which were working fine with my Windows XP Pro SP2 computer until a couple of days ago. I had recently put firmware 2.0.03 onto the Zen Xtra, and was using the drag-and-drop method in Windows Explorer to copy loads of albums across to it from my music folder. It seems I might have tried to copy too much over at one go, because eventually the file copying just stopped, and I had to unplug the Zen Xtra from the PC to abandon the copy process. Since then, neither Zen device has been properly recognised by any of my PCs. When I plug the Zen Xtra into?a USB port, Windows brings up the messages: "Found new hardware: Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra" and "Found new hardware: MTP device", then brings up the Found New Hardware Wizard, even though firmware 2.0.03 is supposed to provide "seamless support with any computer running Microsoft? Windows Media? Player 0 and Windows? XP - no drivers or software needed" (I have WMP0.00.00.4036 installed). The Zen Xtra's display does not show the "docked" icon except when plugged into my laptop (running XP Home Edition)... but even on the laptop Windows still asks for a driver, which it then fails to install properly. When I plug my Zen Touch into my PC, it detects that an MTP device has been connected, but Windows Media Player doesn't list it under the Sync tab, and when I try to install the "Creative Software Suite for PlaysForSure-enabled Creative Zen Touch Players", the installer complains that "Setup could not detect any portable device on your system... please ensure that Zen Touch PlaysForSure Firmware is properly installed". The device's firmware version is 2..0, and as I have already said, both this and the Zen Xtra were working fine with my PC up until a couple of days ago. Additionally, the "docked" icon?no longer appears?on the Zen Touch's display when plugged into the PC. I have made the registry change suggested in Creative Knowledge Base Solution ID #9287, and my PC is up-to-date with Windows Hotfixes. I've also tried uninstalling all Creative programs and reinstalling them one at a time, but I can not get my PC to correctly work with the Zen devices anymore. Any suggestions? Also, is there some kind of Factory Reset that I can do to get my Zen Xtra back to an earlier firmware?

I had the same issue. My battery ran down during a sync, then I was unable to sync again.
The Zen is showing up fine in the device manager, but none of the software (Media Player, MediaSource) sees it.
Finally, after a day of trying new drivers, running cleanup, etc. I decided to go into the Zen's recovery menu. To get there, press and hold the Play button and press and hold the reset (use a paperclip) button while powering up.
Once there, select the first option in the menu to Clean up the system. I forgot what it's called and I'm in the middle of a sync now, so can't look.
Worked fine after that. Phew!
If your device is being detected fine, but cannot sync, try that and post here if it fixes it.

Beginning dump of physical memory
The computer is fine just browsing the internet for example, but if I use a CAD package it will crash. Today it crashed just opening a Word document..
The OS is Windows XP SP2 installed on a 24" Intel Imac.
I've also installed the latest drivers from this link:
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/bootcamp-xp.aspx
Note crashing happened before I installed these drivers too.
Graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT
Any help would be great!

If you are running Windows using Boot Camp I'd recommend re-posting in the Boot Camp forum. You can find that forum at:

If you are running Windows using Parallels or Fusion then you should post there.
I would think your chances of finding your answer would be with those that are running Windows.

Pp 2.0 and Windows 7 sound problem

I received the error "The currently installed sound card driver does not support direct sound input. Recording is not possible." I tried many of the solutions offered on forums. This is what I found worked for me. (I have an HP with realtek hd audio)
I plugged in external speakers.
In adobe I went to Edit, Preferences, Audio Hardware, selected Pp windows sound, clicked on ASIO settings. For direct sound output ports I only have speakers selected and "Yes" for sync reference. For direct sound input port I have stereo Mix selected and sync reference no. To the left I have "Direct Sound Output", "Full Duplex", and "Start Input First" selected.
In my computers control panel under sound I have "speakers" selected as my playback and "stereo mix" selected as my recording.
I hope this helps others who like me are not computer savvy.

Thanks! Though I upgraded to solve the problem, this is good to know.

Insert Micropone or any jack in Micropone Input or Aux Input, on your sound card or motherboard !
AND NOW YOU CAN USE PREMIERE PRO 2.0

975X PowerUp--setting up PATA RAID0 and 2 optical drives (Problem Solved)

Hi, all. Revamping my existing system extensively and need some help.
I have 2 optical drives and 2 hard drives. I want to have the optical drives set up as master/slave on one IDE cable and the 2 hard drives set up as a RAID array on a second IDE cable. I did it on my old mobo but is this possible with the 975X Platinum PowerUp?
The manual says that IDE1 can support a master and slave, but that IDE2 only supports a master. However, I know this to be false because IDE2 is the slot that the JMicron RAID controller governs. I can manage to set up a RAID0 array with both HDDs master/slaved and plugged into IDE2. However, the optical drives in IDE1 are not recognized if I do this. I can get the system to recognize the optical drives if I plug them into IDE2... They work, but are incorrectly recognized by the JMicron portion of system post as a RAID array. I can't install Windows on the RAID array because so far the system won't access the optical drives without them being on IDE2--which I need for JMicron to control the RAID array. You can see how this would cause trouble. Is there some way that I can go into the BIOS and tell the system that IDE1 is the optical drives?
I have looked in the manual and on websites. Nobody seems to have the same problem. I know that I am a bit behind the times by not having a CD-RW/DVD-RW combo drive, but even having only the one device would not solve the problem of devices on IDE1 not being recognized by the system. This sounds like it should be possible to set up correctly, but because of the unfamiliarity of the motherboard and the complexity of the BIOS in relation to my last one, I know I am not doing something right. I hope I've made the situation clear enough to make sense to other people!
Any suggestions?

Since it is a fresh install, the only drivers that are installed are the ones that came on the Windows XP SP2 CD and the JMicron RAID drivers that I slipstreamed in. However, the directory structure and instructions for use weren't very clear in the .zip file that the RAID drivers came in. It says:
"For floppy install:
Please copy all the directories and files in the "floppy" folder to the root directory of a floppy disk to create a pre-install disk for Win2K/WinXP/Win2003/WinXP 64bits/Win2003 64bits.
For example,
A:\amd64
\x32
txtsetup.oem"
Well, my power supply does not have a connector for a floppy drive, which is why I was installing the RAID drivers with a slipstreamed XP CD. However, in the actual .zip file, there is no "floppy" folder! There are 4 subdirectories: Application, Driver, Floppy32 and Floppy64. The Driver directory has 2 subdirectories: amd64 and x32. I didn't understand whether I was supposed to use the files in the Driver/x32 folder, or the ones in the Floppy32 folder.
I ended up slipstreaming the files from the Floppy32 folder because it seemed to make the most sense according to the instructions. However, I noticed both in nLite and when Windows was actually preparing setup that multiple RAID drivers were found in and loaded from this directory, whereas in the Driver/x32 folder, nLite detected only one set of RAID drivers. Did I use the wrong directory to get the JMicron RAID drivers when I made the slipstreamed XP CD? Or do you think there is a different problem?

Sound not working Notebook Envy 15 TS windows 8 and windows 8.1 - problem continues

Hello,
My computer sound stopped again.
I posted previously:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio/Sound-not-working-Notebook-Envy-15-TS-windo...
After I`ve followed David`s steps my computer`s sound started working again. But it didn`t last. The sound stopped working just one day after.
I did the procedure again, and it worked. But just for a few hours.
The second time I reinstalled the IDT codec I noticed at the device manager that there is no conflict at the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
Instead, the conflict appear in another item of the sound, video and game controllers topic: high definition audio device.
Is there another codec I should reinstall?
Could anyone help me?
Regards,
Luiz

External table in Oracle 10g and Windows server 2003 problem

I'm having a problem accessing an external table in an Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 server environment. The disk is remote (mapped) to the server. It's the usual access errors, kup-04001 or kup-04063.
I have the [seemingly] exact same setup in an Oracle 9i and Windows 2000 server environment which works perfectly. Services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
In the Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 environment, services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the mapped disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
This obviously effects mappings, deployments, etc.
Does anyone know if something changed in either the db or the os?
Thank you,
Michael

Thank you for your reply.
Your proposal is the standard solution. As a matter of fact, that's how it is on my "old" system. Server "A" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM. Server "B" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM and is where the flat files reside. SYSTEM has full permissions on a disk local to Server "B". Database directoriies defined on Server "A" point to Server "B" remote disk. External Tables on Server "A" are defined with directories that point to Server "B" remote (mapped) disk. I have no problems with this configuration.
I'm having a problem acheiving the same configuration with Oracle 10g and Windows 2003. I guess I'm baffled over the fact it isn't working the same way as my "old" environment. Why shouldn't it? Oracle (and you) want me to start services as a specific user. It shouldn't have to be that way unless something changed in the way the database makes calls to the os or if Microsoft slipped something in with one of it's numerous security patches.

Xboard 61 and Vista x64 driver problems

I cannot install the driver for my Xboard 61 without this happening. I've done the following:
-run as administrator
-changed the integrity setting to "ON" using BCDEDIT
-run driver setup in an unpacked driver application folder
-checked to see that emuumidi.sys is installed in system32 folder
-re-checked to see that the same Xboard works on my extant XP x32 system (and it does)
I'm at a loss for what to do. Emu has email support now and its hasn't provided any answers.
Here is a copy of what happens to my system. Any suggestions are welcome.

T61P Windows 7 Driver problem: Port_#0006.Hub_#0007

Am getting an error message saying driver not installed for Unknown Device. When I look at details, the location of the device is: Port_#0006.Hub_#0007. I found some great fixes to other driver problems I was having on the message boards, was wondering if anyone else had this problem and better yet had a fix!!!

A quick and painless path to take is install Lenovo System Update v4 onto your machine, run it, and install all critical updates.
In most cases, if you're missing a driver, this should supply it for you.

Dell Audigy 2 and Windows SP3 driver and static problems

SB0243
Ok, Creative you and Dell have left us customer behind and giving us the shaft.
I know you tell us to go to Dell to get drivers, and Dell still has the same driver posted they had when i bought my PC in 2003.
Funny thing is that the only driver i find that work without the static problem is the one from the creative CD from 2003. The only catch is that none of the other sound Apps will install or work with windows SP3. So you end up with a card that has sound without static but only in two speaker mode, no mixer, EAX, CSMM, sound bank, etc... you know all the other stuff.
I have installed Danial K driver at one time and they worked good for months then the static came back one day. Now after a fresh install of windows with SP3 i end up here with only the old driver working with just two speakers.
This is very sad that a big company like creative can not create a driver that works with current software. You need to fire all your programmer and go hire two with all the money you paid everyone else and maybe then these two top programmer might be able to make something that works. This has become a joke in the sound industry.
It was said that this ship is sinking, i think it has sunk at this point, us rats are jumping ship to some other card that works. Most likey it is not going to be from creative.

IPod Shuffles, gen.1 and 2, won't sync, strange windows xp driver problem

I have been fighting this issue for 3 days...Each time I connect my iPod Shuffle to the USB port on my XP computer, it runs the new hardware found wizard and asks to load the USB drivers, disk drive, and generic volume drivers for the iPod. And each time, when it is finished doing this, the iPod appears briefly as drive with a letter assigned in windows explorer.
Then as soon as iTunes opens, the orange light on the iPod stops blinking, and iTunes sees the iPod, but the iPod disappears from Windows explorer. At this point, when I try to sync or add songs to the iPod, iTunes says it is syncing, but the led on the iPod never blinks orange, it just stays green, and i can't manually add songs either, and the sync never happens and iTunes just times out.
When i look at the iPod in the device manager through the control panel/system, windows says the iPod driver is installed and operational.
However, when I look at the iPod by clicking on 'safely remove hardware' in the system tray, it says there are no drivers installed for the ipod. When I click on update drivers, window says the best drivers are already installed.
Both iPod Shuffles I now have, gen 1 and 2, do the same thing on this windows xp computer, and at one point, the gen 1 shuffle worked perfectly on this machine. Both Shuffles work fine on my Vista computer, but all my songs are on the XP computer....can someone help?

OK, I can get the iPod shuffles to sync if i stop the iPod service, the bonjour service, and the apple mobile device service before i plug the iPod into the USB port.
I stopped the services using the 'computer management' tool that you can access by right clicking on 'My Computer' and choosing 'manage'.
Then i manually open iTunes after i plug the iPod in. The iPod in this case continues to show up as a drive in Windows explorer, with the drive letter i originally assigned to it.
Any thoughts on this?

HP LaserjetPro M277dw printer and windows vista driver installation issues

I ust got the hot off the press HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277 which seems to be a miraculous machine. Just one problem. When trying to download and install the printer driver it goes through the whole process and then tells you the driver will not work with this operating system.
Hmmm. It says on the HP website that this is the correct software for this machine. I have been through at least 10 HP support people up to Level 3 support and hours of online work with HP people trying to install the software. The word I get back is that it will not work with my machine. So I am wondering if I have a Windows Vista 64 bit machine, and the software says it is for that machine, but it wont load, what machine will it work with? The last person I worked with just told me I will need to get a new computer. I thought I just bought a printer that would work with my computer, and now I am told i have to buy a new one?
Any ideas on how to get the software to load? I have some functionality, such as wireless network printing that one technician was able to get to work, but no scanning. Another technician changed all the permissions for installing various programming segments to "everyone" but that didnt work either. He had it so messed up that the it would not print anymore wirelessly either. I had to restore to an earlier date after that guy got off my computer so i could at least get some functionality back.
So, without the driver, I cannot scan to this computer, and i really dont know what other good things i am missing out on because I have never experienced the correct configuration......please help if you can. I need to send the machine back within a certain time period, and I really do think it is the solution for my business, if I could get it to work......Thanks!
PS Direct connection to computer and downloading software that way does't work either.....cannot use the printer directly connected.....

Hi,
Is it the following one ? If not, please download then try again:
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/COL60646/kj-145845-1/HP_LaserJet_M277_PCL6_Legacy_Print_Dri...
By the way, what is the model of your Lasejet M277 printer ? Must be M277 something.
