Missing cd/dvd drivers on new install of win7

 I have a HP EliteBook 8460p.  Replaced the faulty hard drive with a new Hard drive which was sent by HP.  Tried to do a new, clean install ofWindows 7 Pro but I keep getting an error that says "a required cd/dvd device driver is missing".   I have read some HP support forum where i need to download Storage Controller Driver http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-HP-Consumer-Products-and-Technologies/missing-cd-dvd-drivers-on-new-install-of-win7/m-p/2411307/highlight/true#M9718  I'm unable to find the Storage Controller Driver, Can some please forward the link to downloadhttp://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/psi/home/?sp4ts.oid=5056942&sp4ts.pn=SN188UC&sp4ts.sn=CZC2141VHC  

Hi: I think that is the problem then. Hopefully you can find the W7 pro version you need at the link below. SP1 Media Refresh are the newest files. http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/14709-Windows-7-Digital-River-direct-links-Multiple-Languages-X86-amp-X64/page60?p=470600&viewfull=1#post470600 Then use this tool to make the file bootable onto a 4 GB USB flash drive or a DVD. http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool It is very important to check to make sure the file that you downloaded reports the same size as what it was advertised to be. For example, some members have gotten a "Download Complete" message but only part of the file was actually downloaded (like 2 GB out of 3 GB).

  • How to Install Latest SB Live Drivers Onto New Install of

    I upgraded to a new motherboard and CPU and have just installed a fresh new copy of Windows XP on the machine. I haven't plugged it in yet, but I will be installing a SB Li've Value CT4830.
    In preparation for installing this card, I tried to download the latest drivers, but the web site says that in order to install the latest driver, I must already have the driver from July 2002 installed.
    Where can I get the July 2002 driver? It can't be on my original CD since I bought the card before 2002.
    I am trying to do a minimal install of drivers, and do not need or want to install any non-essential appliction software, unless its necessary to get surround sound.
    If it matters, XP Service Pack 2 is installed.Message Edited by anthonyanthony on -25-2004 02:25 PM

    Same thing here with me. I recently got a new system but kept my Soundblaster
    card (Li've Platinum 5.) and with it a fresh install of XP SP2. I knew I would
    have to use the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe driver update because the origi-
    nal CD could not be used (same as you). So I was doing a fresh install of the
    Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe with no pre-existing Soundblaster stuff installed (save
    for the XP Soundblaster drivers).
    So here is what happened:
    * ran Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe; did the typical install
    * sound is ok -- however, I ran the diagnostics and the mixer, soundfonts, and
    one other one (the last item, forgot which one it was) failed
    * tried to start the mixer to verify the mixer failure and the familiar "CTDevcon.dll
    has failed" message came up
    I have had this happen to me before in trying to install the Li'veDrvUni-Pack and I did
    manage to get everything working again but I forget how. I believe it involved running
    the CTzapxx program which I did try but XP keeps on putting in the default Sound-
    blaster drivers after rebooting. I think this might be the problem (the fact that the
    default drivers keep on getting installed) but I can't remember how to get around it.
    Moderators/experts/technicians -- any ideas?

  • Photosmart 8150 not printing any documents from new install on WIN7 desktop

    Calibration and alignment prints correctly from the printer panel menu but nothing else prints properly. For instance, the Print Test Page command from the printer properties and from the printer diagnostics utility result in a completely blank page kicking out. Tried to print a single page PDF and got the line drawings (all in green...they were black on the PDF) and none of the text. Getting very frustrated. Any ideas?

  • Cannot install Windows 7 on Equium P200D-139 - CD/DVD drivers missing

    Hello all.
    Hello this laptop came with Windows Vista.
    I am trying to install Windows 7 - 32 Bit for my mother.
    She does not have the original Toshiba DVD's so I purchased Windows 7 for her.
    First I boot using the Windows 7 DVD.
    Then the language selection screen is shown and selections made.
    Then the +Install Now+ option is chosen.
    Then the following message appears - this is verbatim:
    +"A required CD/DVD device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.+
    +Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive you can safely remove it for this step."+
    I cannot progress beyond this point.
    The Windows Vista installation is still on the laptop, and I cannot find any of the drivers that are required - sadly the driver request is not very specific. I am wondering if it is needs drivers for the hard drive?
    I have been searching on the internet and cannot find any drivers that work.
    Thanks in advance for any help :-)

    Hi
    The CD/DVD driver is part of the Microsoft system and also available on the Windows 7 installation disk.
    Therefore there are no special CD/DVD drivers available.
    I read about this theme in different forums and also on Microsoft support forum and mostly this issue appear if the Windows system disk is faulty/damage.
    I dont know from where you got this disk but I recommend you to download an Windows iso file from Microsoft server as mentioned here:
    http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=73726
    Then you could create own Windows installation disk or USB flash memory stick
    The serial key which you got with the Windows disk could be used for activation.

  • ScanGear MX700 Drivers will not install on new iMac

    I am new to Mac, so I'm not sure if I am missing a step. Using the install disk that came with my new Canon MX700 I installed the scanner drivers in the series:
    ScanGear MX700 series 1370.mpkg
    IJ Scanner Selector 220.pkg
    ScanGear MX700 series 1370.pkg
    ScanGear MX700 series Network 1370.pkg
    After I load each package, I allow the computer to restart to complete installation as suggested after each download.
    I've turned the printer off and on (using USB to connect to iMac). When I attempt to scan using the menu on the Canon, a window pops up: "Scanner is not selected. Click [Scanner Selection] to select scanner. Scanner driver will be closed." When I select "Scanner Selection" another window opens called "Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector" but there is nothing in the Network Device List to select. Under TWAIN Data Source Name is "Canon MX700 series Network", but there is nothing with a MAC Address. I am unable to select anything and that is as far as I've gotten.
    HELP!

    If you are using the control panel on the MX700 to scan, then after you press the SCAN button, you are prompted to select the connection method > Local (USB) or 'LAN Connected'. Based on the message you are getting, and since you have the MX700 connected via USB, I would guess that you are selecting 'LAN..'. If at this stage you use the arrow up or down key to select 'Local', then I believe you will not get the message.
    If you are scanning from your iMac, rather than using the MX700 Control Panel, then you do not need to configure the IJ Network scanner since you have the MX700 connected via USB.
    You should be able to open an application like Image Capture to check the USB connection. If a message stating that 'No Image Capture device is connected', then click on 'Devices' and then 'Browse Devices'. The 'Image Capture Device Browser' should appear showing the MX700 under TWAIN Data Sources. If you select this entry it should show it as connected. If it doesn't show it as connected, then you could have a problem with the USB cable. A previous post had a Canon user capable of printing but they were unable to scan and the included USB was the fault.
    If the connection is okay you should be able to scan using the Image Capture application. After the prescan is performed, you must select a portion of the displayed image using your mouse by dragging from one corner to the opposite corner. Now the SCAN button will be available.
    Note also that you can use the Preview application to scan.

  • Transferring drivers over to new install

    Hi!
    I'm a recent switcher (5 months), and since I've moved to OS X, I've installed, and subsequently uninstalled, untold piles of crap. Therefore I've decided that together with the external enclosure I'm getting for one of my hard drives, I'm going to do a fresh install.
    However, my printer isn't supported my OS X. To get it to work, I had to install Xcode and use the Terminal to run some sort of Linux driver.
    Because I plan on keeping my new install as lean and clean as possible, I'd like to avoid all the tedious mucking about in Xcode and simply copy the driver over. Is this possible?
    The printer in question is a Minolta 1350W, and it's using the 13xx linux drivers.
    Thanks

    Do you know where (all) the file(s)
    are?
    > That's what I want to know. Where are drivers kept?
    And is it possible to just transfer one from one
    machine to another?
    You really have to look at the source code package to determine where files will be installed when you do your own compiling. The usual install directories are /usr or /usr/local. It should be noted that you may have changed the default location when you built the driver.
    I took a short look at the source code. Running a "./configure --help" includes the following --By default, `make install' will install all the files in`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix', for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.After a quick "./configure" and "make" followed by a "make -n install", it appears that files were installed in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/man/man1. I didn't do a full make install and check for all the files that would be installed and I may have missed other files that were installed somewhere in the /usr/local tree. There may well have been more than one file placed in each of the directories such as /usr/local and /usr/local/lib.
    It does not appear that a PPD was generated during the build. I am assuming you used the PPD from the linuxprinting.org site. That PPD will be whereever you manually placed it.
    To be sure you get all the files installed, it would indeed seem easier to install XCode and rebuild the package. XCode has a convenient uninstaller in /Developer/Tools. I think you will actually spend less time going this route than searching all over the indicated directories trying to determine which files you need to transfer.

    You can't get there with GUID/GPT.
    There are tips on making a USB flash device that is bootable.
    You can set aside a small 6GB partition somewhere and put Windows 7 installer there and run it WHILE IN Windows.
    Windows Vista can be upgraded in place to 7 RC.
    You'll need NTFS (30-50GB).
    Windows doesn't support FW for booting.
    You can create a drive that has Master Boot Record.

  • After a new install with old TBird uninstalled."Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible" Should have created a NEW profile?

    My Windows 7 Ultimate computer received an unauthorized Windows overnight update followed by error messages. Bless Microsoft. To compound the problem there were NO restore dates found and no recent backups. I lost about the last entire year of data including all my many downloads and recent documents, etc.
    Like another user, I also had more than a year of Thunderbird emails in my inbox and many other folders. Important to me. Now TBird won't open...at all... and gives me an error message: "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." OK. So I uninstalled it and REINSTALLED IT, more than once, and still get this same error message after a supposedly successful installation. The error message and then TBird fails to open. Shouldn't it create a new profile with the new install?

    No. It's looking for, and finding, profiles.ini but can't find the profile in the location stored in profiles.ini.
    Deleting (or moving or renaming) profiles.ini should indeed force it to generate a new profile.
    Do these help?

  • New install of Ubuntu, Firefox menu bar is missing.

    I have a new machine with a new install of Ubuntu 12.04. In Firefox the menu bar is missing. I have the black border with 3 buttons in the left and the current page title. I also have a tabs bar and toolbars. I've looked in the forum/help and tried the suggestions there, here's what happened:
    If I right-click the tab bar, the only toolbars shown in the drop-down menu are Navigation, Bookmarks and Add-ons, so I can't show the menu bar that way.
    I don't have a Firefox button.
    I've tried creating a new toolbar and moving all buttons except the address field and google search across in case it was a lack of space on the toolbar but that didn't help.
    I can't reset the profile as I don't have a help menu.
    I've re-installed Firefox and there was no change.
    Does anyone have other suggestions please?

  • Snow Leopard and Windows 7 - Unable to locate CD/DVD drivers to install

    hi,
    I am using Boot Camp to install Windows 7, and when the installation starts, I get an error message/ popup window that states: "Unable to locate CD/DVD drivers...".
    I can't eject the CD, or figure out which drivers it needs, & how to get them.
    I've noticed a lot of people are having this same issue with various PC manufacturers and various releases of Windows 7...
    Some people have successfully avoided this by installing off of a USB drive. I am wondering if it's at all possible to install Windows 7 / Boot Camp with a USB drive... or if there is another solution to this problem.

    hi,
    i'm replying again to my own question with more info
    basically i inserted the snow leopard and the mac os x install dvd's that shipped with my early 2009 nehalem mac pro tower into a windows machine. i was able to "explore" the dvd using windows and found some boot camp support folders which contained drivers.
    i copied these drivers to a thumb drive.
    so now, during the windows 7 install... i have the option of navigating to these drivers on my thumb drive.
    however - i don't see any potential drivers for the dvd burner/ superdrive...
    here is the list of companies/ drivers supplied:
    ATI
    Broadcom
    Marvell
    Apple
    Cirrus
    MotorolaSetup.exe
    Asix
    IDT SigmaTel
    NVidia
    Atheros
    Intel
    RealTekSetup.exe
    it is my understanding that the superdrive is hitachi...
    the information on this drive inside the system profiler is as follows:
    "HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GH41N:
    Firmware Revision: PQ05
    Interconnect: ATAPI
    Burn Support: Yes (Apple Shipping Drive)
    Cache: 2048 KB
    Reads DVD: Yes
    CD-Write: -R, -RW
    DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
    Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, CD-Raw, DVD-DAO
    Media: Insert media and refresh to show available burn speeds"
    i really wish i knew more info about this drive and where to get windows drivers for it so i can install windows 7 on my mac pro.
    this is the stock drive that shipped with this mac pro. i find it strange that no one else is running into this issue?
    thanks
