Touchsmart 600-1037d will not recognize Touchscree​n after fresh install Win 8 Pro 64-bit

Would appreciate anyone's help in how to resolve my issue with my HP Touchsmart 600-1037d.  I have completed a fresh installation of Windows 8 Pro 64-bit, and the Touchscreen feature is not activated.  Unlike some of the other similarly related enquiries, I do not receive an error message in my Device Drivers that recognizes the Touchscreen and not have the correct drivers.  In my case, the OS simply does not recognize the Touchsreen features that were functional in Windows 7 64-bit.  I have tried using the NextWindow drivers from HP, Windows Update Catalog, and NextWindow websites, however none seem to work.  I have even tried a type of forced "installation" by right-clicking the relevant .inf files - with no success. 

Dear frrw,
Thank you for your reply and comments.  After reading through the pages from the link you provided, perhaps I am missing something.  I have successfully installed Windows 8 64-bit on my HP Touchsmart 600-1037d, which uses the nVidia GT230 adapter.  I have also successfully installed the latest nVidia Win8 drivers for the GT230.  All the features on the Touchsmart 600-1037d work fine - except there is no Touchscreen function.  In Device Manager there is no notification that there is a driver missing, ie Device Manager does not recognize that there is a Touchscreen device that I would need to update.  In Win7 64-bit the Touchscreen function worked fine.
I have tried forcing the installation of the following drivers with no success, ie Win8 64-bit simply does not recognize that there is a Touchscreen device to install.
- NextWindow drivers from HP
- Windows Update Catalog drivers for the NextWindow 1950
- NextWindow website
Would appreciate any further advice.

  • Windows 8.1 Professional x64: Windows will not run Windows Update after fresh install

    Greetings everyone.  I'm having a strange issue that I can't seem to figure out.  I'm developing an image with the following specs:
    Hardware:
    Dell XPS 12 Ultrabook Convertible
    Haswell i7
    8 GB RAM
    256 SSD HD
    Software:
    Windows 8.1 Professional x64
    Problem description:
    After formatting and partitioning the hard drive (UEFI) with a corporate copy of Windows 8.1 x64, the laptop is booted up in Audit mode.  No OEM drivers or software is installed.  Windows is then activated to the KMS server and verified. 
    I then connect to a hotspot (no proxy required) and open up IE 11.  I click tools and select Windows Update.  The laptop then searches and searches for updates and never finds any.  I've let it search for over 10 hours.  The laptop never
    returns an error message.
    Troubleshooting performed:
    1.  I've tried different copies of Windows 8.1 - same result.
    2.  I've tried installing the OS with different types of media (external hd and multiple bootable USB drives) - same result.
    3.  I've disable the Windows Update service, deleted the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder, restarted the Windows Update service and rebooted laptop - same result
    4.  I've installed this copy of Windows 8.1 on different models of laptops with no OEM drivers or software installed - same result.
    5.  I've installed all of the OEM device drivers in the correct order and ensured that the device manager is clear of bang signs - same result.
    6.  Date and time is set correctly.
    Has anyone else experienced this with Windows 8.1 x64?  If I take a copy of Windows 7 x64 or 8 x64 and install it on this laptop, it updates Windows without any issues.  The problem seems to be with Windows 8.1.
    Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

  • My iTunes will not recognize my iPhone after iTunes was updated.

    my iTunes will not recognize my iPhone after iTunes was updated. what does that mean?
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    Hello mzshay2u2,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I understand that you're unable to locate your iPhone within iTunes 12 on your Mac.  First, I'd like you to take a look at the screenshot below, as iTunes 12 changed the navigation of your Library.
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If you do not see your iPhone's icon there, then continue on to the link below.

  • When I try to install WinXP using bootcamp, the iMac will not recognize the CD after it has already read all the information and is ready to begin installation. What is the problem?

    When I try to install WinXP using bootcamp, the iMac will not recognize the CD after it has already read all the information and is ready to begin installation. What is the problem?

    If your on 10.6.8 like you should be for security/stability updates, somewhere along the line a later Bootcamp version was issued and only supports Win 7.

  • ITunes 11.1.4 will not recognize iPhone, iPad after Dell BIOS update

    I suspect the problems everyone is having are related to the BIOS.  I am running a Dell XPS i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz 3.4 GHz with 24 GB RAM, 64 bit OS x64 based processor.  OS is Windows 8.1
    I just updated my BIOS as suggested by Dell.  Now iTunes 11.1.4 will not recognize my iPhone or iPad.
    My computer accesses the iPhone or iPad, but iTunes does not recognize them.
    This was not a problem prior to updating BIOS.
    Is there a fix or patch?
    I have to sync my devices for work.
    Please no baby-steps replies.  Have tried everything including removing devices from device manager and reconnecting to force driver update and try to force iTunes recognition.  None of that works.
    Thanks!

    Here is the fix from Waldo-E3 elsewhere in this forum.
    Like I said, no baby steps answers please!
    Kudos to Waldo-E3!
      RESOLVED...
    Found these steps posted elsewhere by another and the solution worked for me...
    1. Go to Windows 8.1 Control Panel. 
    2. Go to Hardware and Sound; Devices and Printers; Unspecified (look for Apple Mobile Device USB Driver) 
    3. Right-click, then select properties on the menu list. 
    4. Select the "Hardware" tab at the top  When the properties dialog box opens, once more select properties on the lower right hand button. 
    5. Under the "Driver" tab menu, the update driver button will be grey and unselectable here. So you need to select and click "Change Settings" button located near the lower left corner. 
    6. Now you can click the "Driver" tab menu near the top, so you can see the "Update Driver" button. 
    7. Select "Update Driver". 
    8. Select and click "Browse my computer for driver software". 
    9. For Windows 8.1 64 bit, it should be located in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.   
    10. Click Next, and let the driver re-install. 
    11. iTunes  11.1.4.62 should open automatically if your iphone is connected already

  • Apple programs will not recognize Internet connection after Tiger upgrade

    In January, I posted the question below. I wanted to update it, but this site has archived it and will not allow responses. In the hope that I may help someone else, I am repeating my question, now that I have the answer.
    ===============================================
    ORIGINAL PROBLEM
    Last week, I upgraded from 10.3.9 to Tiger. Ever since then, I have had trouble using Apple's programs that require internet usage: Safari, iTunes, Software Update, etc. All of these programs think I am not connected to the Internet. But I am; I can use Netscape, Internet Explorer, and other non-Apple programs on the web.
    Furthermore, it's not consistent. Sometimes Safari will recognize the connection. I'll be using Safari, looking up websites, when suddenly it will quit connecting, giving me the message, "Cannot connect to the server," no matter what server it is, even apple.com (so I have to use Netscape to access my .Mac and this Support screen).
    How can I resolve this?
    ==============================================
    The problem was that my Earthlink Access software was setting a proxy on my connection. Netscape & Firefox worked because they ignore any proxies; the Apple programs (plus Shiira and Internet Explorer) didn't connect because they use the proxies.
    Why did it sometimes work? Well, if I first used Safari to go to a secure website of my bank, somehow that opened up the connection and then I could continue to use the Internet and Internet based programs like iTunes and widgets. However, if I tried to use an Internet-based program before going to the secure site, then it wouldn't work.
    After months of phone calls and e-mails and sending data packets and all such stuff with Apple Care, they finally stumbled upon this answer: Uncheck the proxy box. And that did it. At first I had to uncheck it every time I started up the computer, but now it stays unchecked and I can use my Apple programs with no trouble.
    I just wanted to share this with you in case you also had trouble with Internet connections after upgrading to Tiger, because I did see several other people had this same trouble.
    Movable flat-screen iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   1.25Ghz processor, 256 MB memory (DDR SDRAM)

    For the record, could you state each Proxy box you ended up unchecking please? I'll attempt to submit a user tip with credit to you for finding this solution.

  • DVD drive will not recognize blank DVDs after upgrade to Lion.

    It finds burned DVD/CDs but not blank ones. Disk utility partially sees blank dvd, gives option to eject it, but will not allow eject it. Finder does not see it at all. have to restart to have it eject. Tried different DVD's (Manufactures and -R / +R, etc). Have followed recommendations on resets and have even reloaded the OS.  This problem started immediately after upgrade from snow lepoard to lion.

    Repairing permissions yes. But in my head, if everything is working fine for it, just won't read Blank media, could it be a software thing?
    I'll give it a shot in a few hours

  • It will not open even with a fresh install

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026778 /questions/1026778]''
    Firefox has not opened for a while. I did a fresh install on a windows 8.1 64 bit operating system and the darn thing still will not open. I am not happy about this.

    I'm re-installing from a cd.  I have upgraded since Aperture 1.0!!  When I use the install from Aperture 3.0, it won't open my library (because it has been updated to a newer version of Aperture).  So, I tried to open Aperture with the sample library on the disc.  No go.  States I don't have permissions. 
    I updated the re-installed version of Aperture 3.0 to the current 3.2.3.  I still CANNOT open Aperture.  I seem to be getting the same error message. 
    I have fixed permissions and all.  My Mac is up to date.  I don't know what else to do. 
    I have a MacBook Air and Aperture works great on it.  Problem is my huge library is difficult to transfer or duplicate since it is so large.  I think I will just take out my hard drive from my Mac Pro and put it in a desktop enclosure. 
    I can't even open Aperture from my Vault.

  • My touchsmart 600-1120 will not shut down. Is there a new bios update?

    I've worked on several Touchsmart systems - and this is the first time I've had this problem.  About 10 seconds after the system is completly shut down - it starts back up.  I've done all I can think of in the "power options" - and cleared the BIOS.  Nothing seems to help.  Perhaps a short in the switch?  I've noticed that several models of the 600 have a bios update to 5.12  - mine is 5.01.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How come the SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio will not recognize my AdventureWorksDW after installation?

    I am trying to do the tutorial for SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio, but I can't get the AdventureWorksDW to be recognized by it, when I try to connect to it. 
    I have tried to shut down, restart, downloaded a couple of different versions of AdventureWorksDW (I believe 2008 is the one I need), and tried to attach this AdventureWorksDW using SQL Server Management Studio 2008R2, but I cannot even do that! The instructions
    for attaching a DB tell me to open Management Studio, then open a connection instance.  But then I cannot find the database button to right click on, or the attach item in the menu that is supposed to be there with it. 
    I had installed AdventureWorks2008R2 previously and the SQL Server BIDS sees that, but of course I cannot do the tutorial without some serious mods if I do that. I have rebooted computer, closed and reopened the BIDS app, deleted and re-created the
    OLE-DB connection in BIDS, but nothing works. What am I doing wrong? I've worked in mostly the Oracle world for most of my career so I'm not new to either DW or relational DB, but this one is driving me to pull my hair. Any help greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!  Is this correct?
     CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorksDW2008R2_data

    (FILENAME
    =
    'C:\SSIS Downloads\AdventureWorksDW2008R2_Data')

  • Will not recognize either of my apple installed optical drives in 10.4.11

    G5 2 x 2.66 . what is up with this. i can't burn any discs. any ideas??? both drives spins LOUD. then nothing shows up on the desktop. help!!!

    Hi MrConsistent,
    Try a different media... try Fuji/Maxell or Sony. My PBookG4 laptop did the same thing after the 10.4.11 update and low and behold it was the media.
    Doesn't hurt to run Disk Utility from your system restore disk and verify there are no errors on the drive. Here's how: *Testing and repairing a disk or volume*
    When you have problems with a disk or volume, use Disk Utility to test and repair it. Disk Utility also reports the S.M.A.R.T. status, which tells you whether your disk has hardware problems that will cause it to fail.
    You can verify your startup disk with Disk Utility, but to repair it, you must start up your computer using another disk. For example, you can use your Mac OS X Install disk.
    Close the files and quit the applications on the disk that you want to repair.
    Open Disk Utility, and select the disk in the list on the left.
    Click First Aid.
    Check the S.M.A.R.T. Status at the bottom of the window. If you can't see the S.M.A.R.T. Status, be sure you selected the hard disk your volume is on, and not the volume itself.
    If the S.M.A.R.T. Status is "About to Fail," back up your files on the disk as soon as possible and replace the disk.
    If the S.M.A.R.T. Status is "Verified" or "Not supported," click Repair Disk to repair the disk.
    If Disk Utility cannot unmount the disk, be sure you have quit any open applications and click Repair Disk again. If it still cannot unmount the disk, repair it just like you would repair a startup disk, by starting your computer from another disk, such as your Mac OS X Install disk.
    If Disk Utility tells you to look for links to corrupt files in the DamagedFiles directory, some of those files are overlapping on your hard disk and are likely to be corrupt. Examine the affected files, each of which is listed in Disk Utility's output on a line that begins "Overlapped extent allocation". Most of these files have aliases in the DamagedFiles folder at the top level of the affected disk. If you can replace the file or recreate it, delete it. If it contains necessary information, open it and examine its data to make sure it has not been corrupted.
    If Disk Utility cannot repair your disk or reports "The underlying task reported failure," try to repair the disk again. If that doesn't work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat your disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and restore your backed up data. If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced. See an authorized Apple dealer for more information.
    Also, while you have DU open... click, Repair Disk Permissions... always a good thing to try.

  • Windows Vista will not recognize the dvd drive in my Mac Pro

    After running windows updates, Windows Vista can no longer find the drivers for the dvd drive. Any suggestions?

    Thank goodness for restore points. That was all I needed to do (system repair, do you want to restore to last check point) to be up and running.
    I found my problem documented as an issue with Samsung SATA + Windows 7, and my X58. Curious, as moving a working system from one motherboard to another would always end up with Samsung SATA DVD not working, but LG is fine... so looks like time to buy another SATA DVD.
    This from /technet.microsoft.com exactly describes the issue:
    *CD/DVDRW from TSSTCorp (Samsung) drive, after install W7 without any problem not recognized...* | Modified on 9/9/2009 4:48 PM by lmarcelo
    CD/DVD/rw do not respond on the Windows 7 Professional RC 32 bit, I have an Intel G35 desktop board, and 2.3 Ghz. CPU Intel Dual-Core 2, with sata optical drive. (From Samsung) Works fine in the raw clean install, but after the second reboot in the device manager appears with a yellow triangle, so I can't read nor write any CD or DVD.
    I did this several times, (Format and install), even with a new CD drive, but it's always the same. Using a 160 Gb. WD hard disk, and alternated with a 400 Gb Samsung Sata HD make no difference at all.
    Problem: Can't do anything with CD-DVD drive. (Messagge in the Device System General tab Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)).
    By the way, this configuration was working fine in XP Pro. SP3. Any hint? clue? same problem? any one?

  • "Profile is missing or corrupted." Will not start again even with fresh install.

    Apparently after some kind of crash, whenever I start Firefox I receive an error message saying "Profile is missing or corrupted. Cannot be loaded" or something like that. The information about loading the Profile Manager does no good, since it presumes you can already start Firefox. It is not even allowing me to create a new profile, and downloading a new version of Firefox does not work either.

    Hello tomreedtoon,
    try to delete the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profiles.ini_file profiles.ini] file to force firefox to create a new profile, the profiles.ini file exist in firefox profile folder '''path'''
    for your windows use "Start > Run" (or press "Windows key+R" to open the Run box) and type :
    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox
    and click "OK" to quickly open the appropriate folder
    when the new profile created (after you delete the profiles.ini folder) then see:
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile#os=win7&browser=fx22 Recovering important data from an old profile]

  • Backup will not recognize/detect the DVD onto which I stored my files.

    The system: TouchSmart tx2-1275dx system running Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit).  Unit is two years old.
    The problem: I am doing a complete restore after complete HDD failure.  I have used the HP recovery disks, purchased online for $16.50 , to reinstall the operating system; it is now back to its as-purchased state and functioning okay.  When I open up the Backup/Restore application and attempt to restore from the backup files on my DVD drive, the system does not recognize those files.  I have tried making a small backup of the restored system thinking that would enable the backup process.  The system will recognize the small backup but not pre-failure backup.  Thinking that the problem was the disks, I tried them on my desktop machine.  Though it runs XP Home, it quickly recognized the backup-disks and successfully restored the files in a temporary profile without issue.  
    The question: What can I do to restore the backup files (*.vhd) I made prior to this failure.  I did monthly backups specifically to avoid this kind of data loss.  There has to be some way of getting the system to recognize them.
    General remarks: The hardware portion of this restoration was easy.  The software reinstallation/restoration has, to date, taken a suprisingly large amount of time and money; yuck.  

    If you are using the built in Vista backup, here is what I think has happened.
    Vista backup uses an image based backup, it stores an image of the hard drive and the files you selected for backup, it also stores a disk signature in the image, it contains partition data and other parameters, since you replaced the disk and most likely is not the same size, Vista backup will not recognize that backup as legitimate, signature mismatch of sorts.
    What you can do:
    1. If you have acess to a W7 PC you can use disk management in W7 to mount the vhd image and the copy all your data out of the image to flat files.
    2. You can do this in Vista but takes some software to be installed
    http://www.pronetworks.org/forums/how-to-mount-completepc-backup-vhd-file-t84349.html
    Conclusion, you most likely can get your data but you will have to decide where it goes.
    I don't guarantee this is the issue, but is most likely.
    One other thing you can try is to copy the contents of the DVD to your hard drive, then point to the directory.
    Vista and W7 backup is not a full featured backup solution and has its limitations, I sugget this software for backups and disk images, it also has a rescue boot disc you can make.
