Hi,
This will wipe your computer then set it back to Factory Settings. Please back everything up before perform factory restore.

Windows will not update after clean install

ok, I hope this isn't a common topic, I have searched everywhere for a solution. My laptop was slow, maybe infected with malware. I refreshed it and it wouldn't allow me to update and reinstall 8.1. So, I reset it. Still no updates. I got my hands on a windows 8 disk, formatted the drive and reinstalled windows. I still can't update, I have tried update troubleshooter and microsoft fix it. Neither worked, the updater searches and then says sometimes even update needs an update. So i've tried that. it happens often and it wont complete the updater update, even after troubleshooter claims it has fixed any errors. I got one error message earlier in week which I can't rememer. I searched out all the info and fixes on it and got nowhere. I gave up on fixing update and tried all the other installers I could find. The only one I could get to work was WSUS. I downloaded all the updates and installed them, in configuration there was an error and it removed all updates. I am losing my mind, this should be simple and has been going on for two weeks. Please help!

Hi @ludditial
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers and tips.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I understand that you are unable to update to Windows 8.1. You tried doing a refresh and reset but there was not change.
You then formatted the drive and installed Windows 8 from a Windows disk but again unable to update to Windows 8.1.
You have ran the troubleshooter and tried to update the updater to no avail.
As you did the last installation from a MIcrosoft disk, I suggest contacting MIcrosoft support for assistance or do a HP
recovery.
This Microsoft article may help you to overcome this issue. Installing the Windows 8.1 Update (KB 2919355).
There is a section on the bottom of the page for troubleshooting the installation.
Here is a link to Contact Microsoft.
If you formatted the entire drive when you did the Windows 8 installation from the disk you will no longer have the recovery partition and will need to do the recovery from CD/DVDs or USB key.
If you did not create recovery disks, please contact HP support and inquire about obtaining a recovery kit.
Please call our technical support at 800 474 6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get a support number for your region. World Wide Phone Support

U401 touch windows 8 audio driver unable to install error could not find divice for this driver

u401 touch windows 8 audio driver unable to 0wau05w8.exe install error could not find device for this driver
kindly advise

hi karthi2lenovo,
Welcome to the Forums.
If the conexant audio drivers from the lenovo website doesn't detect the device, can you try to:
1. Open Device Manager (press Winkey+R > type devmgmt.msc)
2. On the device manager, open Sound, video, and game controllers and Other Devices then check the status (if there's a yellow exclamation mark, error codes, etc.)
3. As an alternative, try this conexant driver from station-drivers:
Conexant High Definition Smart Audio
Version 8.64.59.52 (Win8)
Let me know your findings,
neokenchi

Why won't Windows XP automatic updates work after installing new ITunes

After installing the new 11.1 Itunes, Windows automatic updates fail to install any new updates.
The last time this happened was when I last updated Itunes. I can't remember how I fixed it but I had to go into the apple software and fix something.
Please help!

Please help me ! I don't understand why I had to restore to factory settings and then when I tried to re-sync it kept telling me iTunes is not working. Why ??

How do i update or install Windows XP sp3 onto a Windows XP sp1 which is already installed on my Imac version 10.4.11?

I really hope somebody can help me with my problem because its really getting on my nerves and im not really that "computer compatible"....... ha ha ha...
When I bought this Imac from my friend he already installed everything needed to run Windows xp BUT the problem is that it is SP1 and i want to put SP3 or if its better Windows 7 what do you think? For the last few months it really gives me a lot of errors en problems and it got VERY VERY slow now!!!
If im not wrong I know that on a normal Windows operating system when you go thru the things I when thru (errors and problems) you just backup and format and re-install the Windows?!?!?!?
AND here comes the real problem, my Mac's DVD ROM does not want to read CD's or DVD's anymore.... somehow it broke I still need to replace it...
so now I also need a way that I can do all this without a CD or DVD needed. im not shore if there may be a way to do it with a flash drive or external HDD or something...
Thank you very much if anyone can help me...
Kind Regards

If your DVD drive no longer works then there is No way to install any Windows OS version. Apple has made it so Windows will only install from the Internal DVD drive. So you better stay with XP. Even if you wanted to upgrade to Snow Leopard you would need a working DVD drive to do that. you may be able to install Snow Leopard from an External DVD drive that connects to a USB port but I'm not sure you can use that external DVD to install Win 7.
With your system you are better off staying where you are as far as the OS X and the Windows version you are now using. Except updating XP to SP3.
If you really need Win 7, which at this time there are No programs that run on Win 7 that will not run on XP (Maybe MS Office 2013 but other then that no program NEEDS Win 7 or Win 8 to install or run) you'd be better off buying a new computer, Mac or a Win PC. If Windows is your Main Operating system then you might consider buying a Real Win PC.

CP60-615DX Touchpad and external mouse no longer work after WIndows 7 SP1 update

Let me start by saying I am in the IT field, though clearly far from being great at it. I was updating a CP60-615DX at work with Win 7 x64 SP1. It installed with no errors or anything I'd consider abnormal. Once it was finished, the touchpad no long worked, as well as any mouse I'd hook up via Usb. So I checked Device manager, and the Touchpad is listed with the yellow exclamation mark, as well as mice I hook up. So I did what any respectable IT guy would do, I went to HP and downloaded x64 drivers for the Touchpad port and installed them. But they didn't fix the issue, literally nothing happened. So I installed the latest chipset drivers. Still nothing changed. So I uninstalled the device and manually added it by doing the advanced driver install for a new device, pointing it to the directory where the .exe file had placed the drivers. ...Nothing. So I uninstalled SP1,.... nothing. After uninstalling SP1, redid every aforementioned step, nothing. So my question is, **bleep**? Anyone know another way to fix an issue where the scrolling devices stop working and the drivers won't fix the issue?
Btw, the user had never set up windows restore, and my only other thought is pulling personal documents off and restoring to factory defaults. One more bit of info before I forget, when I went into Windows Recovery (which loads a pre-environment mini OS for you to restore and fix issues), the mouse worked, telling me it's not a hardware issue, it's a Windows vs devices issue.

Hi,
According to your description, since system reinstallation is not helpful, it's probably a hardware problem, it would be better to check if it is the device itself problem.

HP Update unable to install HP Printer Diagnostic Tools

Today the HP Update application prompted me to install three updates related to my Deskjet 3520. Two of them seemingly installed OK, but the third one ("HP Printer Diagnostic Tools") downloads but immediately fails after installation has started.
The manual download of the tool seems to run, but there is no success message, and HP Update still shows this one as missing afterwards. This is on Windows 8 Enterprise x64.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

That update is supposed to install a desktop shortcut to the diagnostics landing page. You can find that here: www.hp.com/go/tools .
I don't know why the update is not working, but I would suggest selecting the "Hide" option so it no longer shows up and adding the above link to your favorites if you wish to save it.

Windows XP SP3. Unable to install AIR, any help?

Hello,
I'm trying to install AIR on my Windows XP SP3 workstation. I had 1.5.0.7220 installed, but the application wanted to update it so I downloaded the newest runtime. Tried to upgrade it but it wouldn't upgrade, kept saying Error 0. So I tried using this note: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403150.html to remove it, but it wasn't in my Add/Remove programs, so I found this command you can run to uninstall it:
E:\Apps\Adobe Air>AdobeAIRInstaller.exe -uninstall
but it fails
E:\Apps\Adobe Air>Uninstalling Adobe AIR (all versions)
failed (consult log)
so I checked the log in %temp% and this is all it says
Error 1714. The older version of Adobe AIR cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612.
=== Logging stopped: 9/16/2009 14:04:24 ===
Then I found a note saying to create the file .airinstall.log in your User dir and try reinstalling. This is what is in that log:
UI SWF load is complete
starting uninstall
Beginning install
Uninstalling product w/ GUID {00203668-8170-44A0-BE44-B632FA4D780F}
Error occurred; beginning rollback: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="1612" errorID=0]
Rollback due to error complete
error during install: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="1612" errorID=0]
runtime install entering error state: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="1612" errorID=0]
begin quitting
So in a last (probably stupid..) ditch effort, I deleted everything in my registry that I thought had to do with AIR and all the adobe air directores in my users folder and program files and ran CCleaner.
It didn't help, in fact it's exactly the same errors..
Any help?

On Windows, it is best to use the Add or Remove Programs control panel to remove AIR.
To install, update, or remove AIR, you need to have administrative privileges.
Here is the documentation on installing and removing AIR:

Invalid signature prevents update, unable to install without it

When I try to install Itunes 10.1 from Apple software update on my Windows 7 64 bit machine, I get an "invalid signature" message at the end of the QuickTime downlay and the download aborts. When I download Itunes64Setup.exe from the website, it aborts within a second or two.
I have tried every conceivable solution on this and other websites to no avail (deleting and reinstalling using Windows Install Cleanup and Revo Uninstaller, deleting files directly, changing the options in Internet Explorer, updating Software Update to the newest version, and too many others to mention). I even reinstalled Windows from the DVD. I even spoke with a friend who works as a "Genius" but nothing we tried
I have been able to install QuickTime 7.40 from the standalone file, which gets me back Application Support and Software Uptdate, but Software Update does not work at all and but there is no way to get Itunes back, Since I deleted the prior version of Itunes, I can no longer sync my ipods, Ipad or use my Mobile Me account, no less upgrade to the OS when it comes out next week. I am desperate.

Well, yours is the first I've heard this happening with a wired connection! Had to look up FIOS, no one else has mentioned a fiber optic connection, either.
It's no consolation to YOUR dilemma, but millions of folks are getting the download OK and it DOES have a valid signature.
I've read posts about resetting security certificates, changing router settings, yadda yadda yadda. Seriously it will probably be less time spent trying to troubleshoot, if you just get it the setup files from a friend who has successfully installed itunes/QT.

Windows 2008 Server R2 - Unable to install MPIO features

Hi everybody,
We encounter an issue with a physical Windows 2008 R2 server.
When we try to install the MPIO features, the system fail the installation :
Multipath I/O Installation failed
Attempt to install Multipath I/O failed with error code 0x80070643.
Fatal error during installation
And no other operation is possible into the server manager before server was restarted.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Lionel Leuba,
This error can caused by many reasons, the typically reason I found as below.
The HP MPIO DSM manager may cause this error when you install MPIO, you can uninstalled the HP MPIO DSM manager and uninstalled powerpath from device manager and reboot the
server.
When you are using EMC PowerPath first but there must install MPIO and Visual C+++ Redist before you setup the EMC tools.
The WMI issue, please run the following cmdlet to fix the WMI.
sc config winmgmt start= disabled
net stop winmgmt /y
%systemdrive%
cd %windir%\system32\wbem
for /f %s in ('dir /b *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %s
regsvr32 %windir%\system32\tscfgwmi.dll
wmiprvse /regserver
Winmgmt /regserver
sc config winmgmt start= auto
net start winmgmt
for /f %s in ('dir /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %s
