The drivers won't install

The drivers won't install>Hi
I have a very old MP3 player which I recently started using again. It is around 5 or 6 years old and I think the model name is just Creative ZEN. The model number is DAP-HD005.
Following a hardware failure on my old PC a couple of months ago, I have recently got? a new PC, which runs on Windows 7 (64 bit). The old PC was about 5 years old and ran Windows XP. I have just tried to installm the software that came with the product on the installation disc but it won't load. I have also tried to find anything on theCreative site that will help, but nothing I have downloaded has so far solved the problem. I understand that the player is so old it is unlikely to be supported, but I wondered if there is some generic software that I have missed that I can install which will allow my PC to recognise the player.
Failing this, is gthere a way to make the player work with a Macbook? I tried to install the software on my wife's Macbook, but it wouldn't even try to run.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

You should be able to use compatabilty mode for XP to install this [url="http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=00098">driver[/url]. It may freeze during the install & not progress but if it does & it lasts longer than 0mins exit it & reboot anyway. Then connect the player. Others have used this method & have been using their older players. I used this method on my Vista comp to install an older nomad player. Download the driver rightclick on the driver choose properties>compatabilty>Xp>then Ok. Then run the file & follow the instructions.

    I think you mean Photoshop CS2.  Photoshop 2 is from around 1992.  The old Adobe activation servers were taken down. CS2 is about a decade old Adobe made a new download for old customers that legal customers can download and install. Download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

    You don't want to install the software that came with the drive, you don't need it and it will be problematic. Connect the new drive, open Disk Utility, select the new drive and partition it using the GUID partition scheme, then format it as Mac OS extended journaled and it will be easy to use with your Mac.

  • HT1338 Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install.  Anyone else have that problem?  How do i solve?  Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

    Hold c and reboot off the 10.6 disk, run the installer.
    If the machine your upgrading is the 2006, I'd highly advise you stay on 10.6.8
    It's a 5 year old machine, you're in the last life stages of that machine and 10.7 will push it right over the edge.
    10.6 is a GOOD upgrade for that machine, faster than 10.7 or 10.5.
    And 10.6 will run your 10.5 software, 10.7 will not.
    Get iCloud with a new 10.8 machine coming out after this summer, seriously.
    Your machine is too old to bother with Lion.
    Or else you can learn yourself and use this link to get back to Snow, good luck finding your 10.5 programs.

  • Has MSI (or anyone) resolved the on-board LAN drivers won't install issue?

    I am having this exact problem with my Neo2 PFISR (ms-6728) mb:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=89598.0
    I find the "PSU is probalby faulty" comments particularly laughable. It's obvious the original poster is much more technical than the MSI people making the suggestions. btw...I'm 100% sure it's not the drivers or the PSU.

    I tried a couple of different PSU, same problem.
    I installed Windows XP SP2c, since I can't get on the internet I can't do any updates.
    If I put a DWL-510 wireless PCI adapter in the box it freezes after the bios splash screen.
    If I put a PCI NIC in the slot it boots but the drivers (that came with the NIC) are not recoginzed and I get all the errors that the link in my original post shows.
    I have tried the drivers on my CD (which are only the intel inf and sound ones) I tried the downloaded ones from the site. Same thing. I have flashed my bios, cleared my CMOS, reinstalled windows XP god knows how many times. I see that there are quite a few people on this board with the same problem.

  • Satellite L875D-S7230 Sound problems / drivers won't install

    I've run a PC tech support service for over 10 years so I've tried all the standard fixes to no avail.
    Main problem was after I started using my laptop with an HDMI cable to a projector -- the audio and video worked fine via HDMI, but when I disconnected the HDMI cable the laptop had no audio, and had a red x on the audio symbol in the system tray. Device manager only showed AMD High Definition Audio Device.  Under Playback devices via the Sound icon (yes Disabled and Disconnected Devices are both checked) it only shows the AMD High Def device.  When I reconnect the HDMI, the audio works fine.  Once I thought that not properly "ejecting" the HDMI cable could be the problem, so I used Windows + P to show the Projector menu and selected Computer Only to disconnect the HDMI and then removed the cable and then the laptop audio worked, but that happened several weeks ago, and now after using HDMI again, it's back to no audio.  I've reinstalled  the HDMI audio, but in trying to reinstall the Realtek Audio Drivers shown on the Support page for my model, they won't install - they extract and then when I click to install, the install stops with no error warning, etc. The same with the AMD Display driver (which is supposed to contain the chipset drivers).    I've been through this two hours troubleshooting process twice over the past 6 months and I am done.  Any suggestions are appreciated.  Here's the support page:

    Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, and thanks for posting! I understand you are having some issues re-installing the software for your HP LaserJet Pro M177fw Printer. I'd like to help you with this. First, I would recommend checking your programs to make sure there isn't anything listed for the LaserJet that wasn't uninstalled: Swipe inwards from the right hand side of the desktop (or press Win key + C on the keyboard). The charms bar will pop up on the right hand side of the screen.Select Settings, then Control Panel.Select Programs, then Uninstall a program.Check the list for any software indicating the printer model (select the software and click uninstall if necessary).You'll also want to make sure you have removed all instances of the printer from your devices and printers folder: Follow steps 1 and 2 above to open the Control Panel.Under Hardware and Sound, select Devices and Printers.If you see any icons for your printer, right click and select delete (or remove device).Now let's do a cleanboot of your computer (to make sure another program that is running is not interfering with your installation). You can find the steps to perform a clean boot in this Microsoft document - How to perform a clean boot in Windows Once all of this is complete, run the software install again. Please respond to let me know if we have resolved the issue!Good luck.

  • Bootcamp drivers won't install

    After installing Windows XP Home SP2, I insert the Leopard DVD to install the Boot Camp drivers. The installation begins and gets to the Broadcom network drivers, then I get a windows bluescreen for a second and the computer restarts. There are no wireless drivers or anything else installed. I tried downloading the BC2.1 drivers (.exe, but that will not run at all. I have re-installed Windows, but this does not fix the problem. The BC drivers simply won't install and crashes windows.

    Hello...well, this might have worked for you guys, but not me.
    The Bootcamp manual simply says that upon restarting, "just follow the Found New Hardware Wizard" and it's all set.
    Well, the Hardware Wizard never appeared. Tried everything over again and still nothing.
    I know you say to use the OS disc that came with my machine (a Macbook Pro), but I have been. Otherwise, I of course wouldn't have been able to install Bootcamp.
    So, I've gone through the Bootcamp installation (after the windows installation) twice now, and everything seemed to go fine (meaning the wireless network is operational, and all other utilities that should be linking up with the OS X side of the computer), but on that previously mentioned restart (Step 3, Point #4, on Page 12 of the Bootcamp instructions PDF), the Hardware Wizard STILL doesn't come up....and yes, the disc is in the drive.
    Anyone else have this problem? Is there any other way to make these drivers work? I, too, cannot stand the big fat blurry text/windows on the screen!
    Thanks!

  • Windows Boot camp drivers won't install

    So I'm trying to put windows on my mac again, for the fifth time since windows won't let me activate it anymore. Everything goes fine and it installs and I put the Mac os x install disc 1 in to install the drivers. It loads up and goes through the process of installing the drivers. Once its down it asks me to restart the computer which I do. Once I get in however, none of the drivers are installed like nothing ever happened. I can tell because I can't get internet and the trackpad won't work properly. The boot camp faq shows up and another window to update something shows up but it need the internet to work. I go and try to repair the drivers and it runs its course, restarts and still nothing! No drivers. I've tried deleting the drivers and reinstalling them, removing the partition and reinstalling but nothing is working. I've gotten the drivers just fine before but now they just won't install. I've updated my mac from 10.6.4 to 10.6.7 so can that be the problem? Its the only thing I did different.

    I'm at my office at the moment and I don't have the disc to view. Tell me, have you found the drivers folder? You can select any driver and it should automatically open boot camp and install all "Apple Drivers" while in windows mode. Then after installing bootcamp, you can install Apple updater. I'm adding more than I should because I don't know how far along you are- if you look around the clock area in windows, you should see a boot camp icon; is it there?
    Send me a screen shot with your disc open and I can maybe help you from there. [email protected] Otherwise, I will look at the direct path this evening and post the info here.

  • My dazzle drivers won't install

    I have a Dazzle DVC 100 and it plugs in and the laptop (HP Pavillion TouchSmart, Windows 8) scans it fine. However when i try and update the drivers it won't install even though i have the right drivers downloaded! When i try to install the drivers by
    their wizards it comes up with an error screen that says that the install was interupted. Please help!

    Hi,
    What is the detailed error message? And anything valuable recorded in the event?
    You can first try:
    Temporarily turn off security software.
    Re-download the driver, install again.
    If fail again, Install the driver in safe mode:
    Start your computer in safe mode
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7
    And just as ZigZag3143x said, it is also recommended to contact pinnacle support.

  • Canon MF4890 Drivers Won't Install On Mac Running Mavericks

    I just purchased an MF4890.  I use a Macbook Pro running Mavericks.  The disk that came with the printer doesn't support Mavericks and when I download the drivers from the Canon website, they won't install.  If I keep the driver image on my Mac desktop, the printer will print for a time -- but then it no longer sees the printer.  This isn't normal.  I should be able to eject the disk image (as in every other application), and the app/drivers should be installed on my mac.  When I as much as created a folder on my desktop and moved the disk images into the folder (print/fax/scan), the mac no longer sees the printer (wireless).
    Help!  Does this printer support Mavericks?

    Hi BonnieBoop.
    The imageCLASS MF4890dw does support printing on the OS X Mavericks operating system.  You should be able to open on the Mac_MF_Ver1010_00.dmg file and run the installer package.  The icon looks like an open brown box.  Next just follow the steps to install the driver.
    If you are not able to see this information or if the setup does not allow you to save the information, we recommend that you contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666) and a live technical support representative will be glad to assist you.
    Have a good day.

  • No audio, after factory reset,flash install,SoundMax & HDA audio drivers won't install

    My problems are:
    No sound with Youtube or the laptop itself
    SoundMax won't install either though I downloaded HDA audio drivers it requested.
    Flash download stuffed up my SoundMax after factory reset.
    I decided to do a factory reset after Youtube starting slowing down. After reset it (Youtube) kind of worked better
    then the audio disappeared from the laptop. The drivers, SoundMax Audio was gone (greyed out).
    I downloaded the Audio driver from Lenovo website for my X31 but SoundMax install wouldn't install because it kept saying HDA Audio drivers weren't installed.
    I downloaded it from here:
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_AU/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&DocID=HT072373
    So I went to HP site to download HDA audio drivers, then the SoundMax Audio reappeared and I had sound on my computer.
    HDA Audio drivers link at HP website (since Lenovo doesn't have it):
    http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?cc=US&lang=en&swItem...
    When I downloaded latest Adobe Flash, the SoundMax Audio disappeared again. So at the moment I have Youtube video without sound (and Firefox keeps telling me to download Flash?)
    No sound on IE as well.
    Would appreciate your help. Thank you very much.
    I'm using:
    ThinkPad X31 (2673-QU6)
    Based on 2673-N7G
    Win XP Pro Service 3 with recent updates
    Firefox (latest) with add-ons
    Solved!

  • KT4AM-V (7061 v 1.0) - Lan drivers won't install

    Hi, Please help... I'v searched the internet high and wide and haven't come up with a solution yet   !
    Set up:
    KT4AM-V (7061 v1.0) - bios upgraded to v1.2
    Sempron 2400+
    2 x 256MB DDR 400
    40GB 7200 Maxtor
    LG Combo CDRW/DVD
    MSI TV ANYWERE
    350W PS
    Windows XP Media Center (w SP2)
    Situation:
    This is a brand new PC, fresh install of Media Center, pc works great EXCEPT that I can't get the Lan working.
    1- used MSI driver disk - installed drivers ok, but device fails to start;
    2- uninstalled, reinstalled drivers;
    3- disabled/reenabled in BIOS;
    4- downloaded new drivers from MSI;
    5- manually searched for drivers;
    was getting "network adapter no drivers are installed for this device"
    then getting "please wait while the wizard installs the software" hang
    now drivers show installed and operational but cant get internet, ipconfig won't release/renew...
    Stuck... don't know where to go from here!  
    thanks in advance

    Ok... Updated time....
    Safe mode had no different results. PSU is good and shouldn't have any effect in this circumstance.
    Now, I have reinstalled XP MC (with the lan disabled). Everything installed and works ok. I then reenabled the lan in the bios, loaded up, and once in windows got the "limited or no connectivity" message.
    Checked the drivers: auto install driver is VIA compatible ethernet controller... so I tried to update the driver from the CD and it goes to install drivers for Rhine II Fast ethernet... and this is where it hangs up... it gives a gull green bar as if its about to finish and it stays on copying "fetnd5b.sys" thats as far as it gets.
    I'll try removing the TV card and see if that helps... anyone else have ideas?
    Cheers

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 drivers won't install

    I moved and when hooking my HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Printer up it would not work and indicated I needed to install a full driver.  I have had nothing but trouble with this printer since purchasing it!!  I had previously hard wired it to make it usable (barely).  Thinking I would only need to plug the Cat 5 cables in and be up and running, I was irritated to find it wouldn't work. I downloaded the driver but when I it came to installing it I received an error message stating the driver could not be installed.  I downloaded a K850 series driver and got it to print but it wouldn't scan.  Unfortunately, I uninstalled the K850 driver and now I get the same error message when attempting to reinstall it.  I have followed all of the HP solution steps disabling all startup & security stuff, etc. to no avail.  It will not install the drivers.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
