Video card will not install properly

Hi, I have an HP Pavillion a6120n. I am trying to install a Radion HD 5450 video card (view links below for pc and video card). I have upgraded my psu to an Ultra LSP 750w and disabled the on-board graphics. However, no matter which way I try to install the video card (while running the pc or not) and rebooting, my monitor says "No Signal Detected". Furthermore, when I try to install the software for the video card from the CD, it goes through the entire install process and says that it is complete but the file never shows up in the folder that it is supposed to. Basically, whenever the new video card is attached to the motherboard, the PC doesn't like it and I get no display.
My BIOS version is 4/20/07. I can change the video setting to [PCI] or [On Board] but nothing more than that, like PCIE. Is there a new BIOS version that I haven't found?
Should I be looking at a different video card? Is this one not compatable for some reason?
Any ideas here? I'm stumped.
Thanks so much for your help. Glad HP does this.

I dont see any reason why that card wont work.
Make sure the card is seated and the lock on the tail end of the card is engaged.
PCIe slots are sometimes a little tricky getting seated.
Also make sure it is not binding against the back plate on the computers chassis
where the ports come out the back. It sould seat comfortably.

ITunes 11.1.4 will not install properly - windows 8.1, 64 bit. My only way to recover is to restore my system. iTunes 11.1.3.8 functions properly. When will Apply provide a workable update?

iTunes 11.1.4 will not install properly - windows 8.1, 64 bit. The only way I have found to recover is to restore my system. I have unistalled/reintalled iTunes two times. No success. iTunes 11.1.3.8 functions properly (following system restore). When is Apply expected to provide a workable update?

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

infofablok,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:

It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on. If it does not help make sure to post any errors given by the doctor. Additionally how is the printer connected to the PC (USB/Network Cable/Wireless/Etc)? Is this our first install of the printer and was it working previously for any other functions?
Best of Luck!

Firefox 13 and 14 will not install properly on my windows 7 starter. Also I cannot get the Scrapbook addon to work. Can you tell me why ?

I have tried to install Firefox 13 and 14 on my netbook, running a Windows 7 starter OS. The installation begins to go smoothly from the setup.exe file; but after the installation seems complete, and I press the 'Open Firefox' button the firefox programme can be seen to start opening because it accumulates about 50mb of private bytes RAM on the windows task manager or on the 'process explorer' utility program by sysinternals. '''However the firefox screen/window never opens up and so firefox does not seem to be properly installed.'''' Also I have had problems with getting the Scrapbook" addon to install properly. I have another computer, a laptop, running XP Home, and I can get the Firefox 13 or 14 to install but it is on this other computer that I cannot get the 'Scrapook' addon to install properly; There is no notice on the Addon page saying the 'Scrapbook' addon does not work on Firefox 13 or 14, and the addon does install, but not properly, so it does not work.
I have the old Firefox setup.exe files, and so I have managed to install an old version, firefox 3 or 4, on an external hard drive. I have successfully got this old firefox to work on the XP Home laptop from an external hard drive, and can successfully use the 'Scrapbook' addon in this way.
I cannot understand why I have problems with Firefox 13 or 14. I think I first noticed the problem about 'Scrapbook' with Firefox 12.

It seems your Mozilla installation is broken. Try the following steps to fully uninstall Mozilla Firefox:
1. Uninstall Firefox as you would normally do.
2. Open a command prompt as administrator.
3. By using the cd and rd command, remove Firefox AppData and Roaming folders, for example:
C:\Users\USERNAME> cd AppData
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData> cd Local
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local> cd Mozilla
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Mozilla> rd /s Firefox
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Mozilla\*.* - Are you sure? (y/n) y
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Mozilla> cd ..
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local> cd ..
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\> cd Roaming
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming> cd Mozilla
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla> rd /s Firefox
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\*.* - Are you sure (y/n) y
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla > exit
Remember to press Enter each time.
4. After that, open a hard disk clean-up tool (such as CCleaner or Windows built-in) and remove all temporary files from your computer.
5. Restart your computer. Download '''again''' the Firefox package from [http://www.mozilla.org/es-ES/download/?product=firefox-14.0.1&os=win&lang=es-ES Mozilla official servers] and try to install Firefox. If the problem persists maybe your computer has a problem or is infected with viruses.
About the Scrapbook add-on, I could get it to work. It has no icon when docked to the toolbar, but you can anyway open it. Right-click a button on the toolbar, click Customize... find the Scrapbook icon, drag it to the bookmarks bar so you can see the icon and click on it to open it. Whenever you need to save a page, right-click that page and choose Save page.

k, so I tried installing the new update for itunes and now it wont work at all. it says that the mobile device isnt installed. i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 4 times now.

My issue is it wont even reinstall onto my computer
Yes I'm aware of that. The procedures are also for trying in cases where iTunes can't be reinstalled due to a "Could not start Apple Mobile Device service" message.
If you're getting a different error message relating to the Apple Mobile Device Service (or Apple Mobile Device Support) when you try to reinstall iTunes, post back to let us know what that error message says. (Precise text, please.)

Try repair Apple Software Update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install.
If you donot find ASU in All Programs, go to Control Panel > Programs n Features > highlight ASU and click Repair.

Error code 31, Drivers will not install correctly

I am using the following NI PXI cards in a Chroma chassis:
8360
5112 or a 5114
7352 (I think)
I have a Toshiba laptop, Satellite L305D-S5934 running Vista, on which I am trying to install the driver package. Everything installs fine, with no errors. When I plug in the expresscard, turn on the chassis, and then boot the computer, the 8360 installs and is recognized in Device Manager and in MAX. The other two cards will not install. I get an error code 31 in device manager on the PCI-PCI/PXI bridge stating that Windows cannot load the driver.
I have another Toshiba laptop, Satellite L305D-S5895, which specs out about the same, also running Vista, which runs with no problems at all with the same card, cable, and chassis. Any previous experience with this issue? Thanks in advance for any timely help you can offer, and I'll gladly supply you folks with as much info as I can. Attached is a screen shot of the device manager with the flag and the error message.

Hey Kyle,
It seems like the ExpressCard isn't working properly, based on what you've told me. You say that the ExpressCard shows up properly in Device Manager after installation, but based on that screenshot it looks like it isn't showing up correctly. Is there an NI-MXI entry in device manager after you install? Take a look at this : Developer Zone : What Laptops Have Been Tested with NI's ExpressCard-MXI for PXI and PXI Express?
In looking at this article, I don't see either of the two laptops you mentioned as ones we've tested or have had customer's test. That being said, there might be an issue with the S5934 and not with the S5895. I looked into it a bit more, and the two laptops have completely different chipsets, so it's reasonable to say that one laptop might work and one might not. There are a couple things you'll want to do to try and fix this:
First, make sure you have the most up-to-date BIOS for the S5934. If you still encounter errors, you might want to sign up for the beta program of the NI MXI Express Bios Compatibility Software, which might be able to solve any BIOS incompatibility problems. You can sign up at www.ni.com/beta for that software.

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?

Hi Tamekia,
I am sorry to hear nothing has worked yet. I have looked up some additional information and possible solutions. Follow the steps in this document to perform a level-three uninstall, register the Windows Installer Service, and then reinstall the HP software. An uninstall and reinstall of the software deletes and overwrites any of the files that might cause the error and resets the Windows Installer. HP recommends that you download the latest software from the HP Web site to remove any files that might be causing this error.

I have an Error Message 7 (14001) that says Itune was not installed properly, to reinstall.
I have tried this twice to no avail.... any answers ? Thank You

Hello Debbie,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. It sounds like you have tried reinstalling iTunes twice, but you may need to reinstall Microsoft's .NET Framework:
Resolution
This issue may be caused by a bad installation of a version of Microsoft's .NET Framework. It's important to note that versions 2.0, 3.5, and 4.0 can all exist side-by-side. Click the arrow next to your OS to reveal links to the versions of Microsoft's .NET Framework that are applicable to your OS; you will need to download and install ALL of these. These links will take you to a download page. Click the download button on this page and click Save in the subsequent window to save the installer to your Downloads folder.
Windows XP:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=0a391abd-25c1-4fc0-9 19f-b21f31ab88b7Windows Vista:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
Note: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 is already installed as part of Windows Vista. You can not modify the installation of this version of the .NET Framework in Windows Vista.
Windows 7:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
Note: Microsoft .NET Framework versions 2.0 and 3.5 are already installed as part of Windows 7. You can not modify the installations of these versions of the .NET Framework in Windows 7.
To resolve this issue, run these installers one at a time and follow the instructions on screen to install each applicable version of the .NET Framework. If this version of the .NET Framework is already installed, you may see a screen similar to the one shown below.
If you see this screen, select Repair and then click Next to repair the installation of the .NET Framework.
