Windows 8.1 Drivers for DeskJet 842C

I've just purchased a new Dell Inspirion 3647 with Windows 8.1 as a replacement for my old (no longer supported) Windows XP system. My old DeskJet 842C printer doesn't appear to have drivers in Windows 8.1. Has there been any drivers developed for this somewhat old printer? I have downloaded the HP utility hppiw.exe and it lists the printer as USB connected to my computer, but offers no solution for finding a driver.

Windows 10 Graphics Drivers for my HP Mini

Are we ever going to get Windows 10 compatible drivers for Intel 3600 Graphics, both me and my wife have the same model of HP Mini, so as you will appreciate we are going to be totally hacked off if we aren't going to be able to upgrade our 2 year old netbooks to Windows 10! Any advice apart from the usual "buy a new lapop" would be appreciated!

That would be correct. While I am not employed by, nor do I represent HP, I can guarantee you nobody will be developing W8, W8.1 or W10 drivers for that gpu. However there is a chance the W7 driver will work. They didn't develop one for my HP nc6400 notebook (which only has support for XP and Vista), and I am running W10 on it just fine by using the W7 graphics GMA 950 driver that I got from Intel.

Unable to install XP drivers for Deskjet 3650 on Windows 7

I have a HP Deskjet 3650 that is connected via USB to my main computer running Windows 7. I can print without problems I am having problems sharing this printer with 2 other computers running Windows XP. I have downloaded the drivers for XP and extracted them onto the Windows 7 computer.
On the properties of the HP Deskjet 3600 Series printer, I have clicked on the Sharing tab.
Share this Printer and Render print jobs on client computers are both checked.
When I click on Additional Drivers, only X64 is checked and says yes under installed.
The other two options (Itanium and x86) are both unchecked and say no under installed.
I tried checking x86 and clicking OK. I'm then prompted to install print drivers and Browse to where the print drivers are located. I browse to the 3600/enu/drivers/win2k_xp folder and see hpf3600k.inf When I click Open, and select OK, I get a Selected Printer Driver Not Found Error which says The specified location does not contain the driver hp deskjet 3600 series (LIDIL) for the requested processor architecture.
On one of the XP machines, I have installed the printer software and am only able to print if I physically plug the printer into it.
On the other XP machine, I have not installed the printer software but I have download and extracted the drivers. When I click on the Add Printer Wizard and select the printer on the network, it tells me that I am about to connect to a printer on the Windows 7 computer and says that it will automatically install a print driver on my machine. I click Yes to allow it to continue and it tells me that the server for the hp deskjet 3600 printer does not have the correct printer driver installed and that I can click OK to search for the proper driver. I click OK and browse to the folder that I extracted the drivers to and see that hpf3600k.inf is located in the folder and click OK and I get a Install Driver Error window that says Windows cannot locate a suitable printer driver. Contact your administrator for help locating and installing a suitable driver.
So, it appears to me that the driver that I am downloading from the hp site for Windows XP is not the appropriate driver, am I wrong here?
How can I get this printer to work print on all 3 computers without having to move it from one to the other. The printer has to be physically connected to the Windows 7 machine as the other 2 are in the kids' rooms.

Try the following: on the XP machine go to the Printers and Faxes folder, Add a Printer, Local Printer, Create a Port, Local Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the actual share name for the shared computer and printer), OK, then click on have disk and point at the directory where you have unzipped the XP driver.
On the XP machine you have already installed the driver do the following: go to the Printer and Faxes directory, right click on the Deskjet 3650, select Properties, Ports, Add port, Local port, New Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the actual share name for the shared computer and printer), OK.

Windows 8.1 drivers for dv6-6053ea

At the moment i am using windows 7 and the drivers i need are only from HP which are from 2011 only for windows 7. So i was wondering can i find drivers for windows 8.1 and will they work? The main problem is graphics driver.. i can only use the one HP has made and when i download a driver from AMD site i can't install it. So i was thinking maybe when i install windows 8.1 i can find a newer driver that works.
This question was solved.

HP does not have Windows 8.1 drivers posted for your model but we can find drivers for you and yes, you will be able to use AMD drivers from their site for the video.

Re: Windows 7 3G drivers for Toshiba F3507g

Hi
There are some drivers now for Windows 7 and the Toshiba F3507g which integrates the card into Network and Sharing Centre.
Only tracked down 32 bit drivers so far but expect others to arrive soon.
To get them go to here:
*Download the 3G RF Power controller:*
http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/3grf-20090928170546.ZIP
*Download the 3G Driver*
http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/3gdrv-20090928170511.ZIP
*Download the Wireless Manager*
http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/eula/calleula.asp?ID=68434
Uninstall the existing version of Wireless Manager and the drivers then:
1) Install the 3G RF Power controller, this updates the existing version
2) Install the 3G Driver
3) Install the Wireless Manager
Note that the install says it is for a different model of Toshiba Mobile Adapter but it also contains drivers for the F3507g.
Regards
Phil

The latest drivers for this device were just released.

IdeaCentre B320 - Windows 8 64bit drivers for AMD radeon HD 7450 card

I have upgraded my recently bought B320 all-in-one to Windows 8 and now have a problem with video card drivers for HD7450 graphics card. Default Win 8's driver (named something like Windows Radeon HD7400 series ) works just fine, but it have no OpenGL support and therefor I can not run some games like Minecraft. Catalyst drivers available from AMD website can not detect the video card (probably because it have lenovo-specific oem ids?), and on lenovo downloads only 32bit drivers are available for AMD cards.
Was anyone able to get catalyst drivers working on B320 with 64bit Windows 8?
May be there is a compatible lenovo desktop or all-in-one which already have those drivers? And will Lenovo release 64bit video drivers for B320 anytime soon?

Till a better idea comes along:
Don't know if you have tried this but first thing I'd do is go to control panel/system/device manager, find the devices, right click and ask for it to update the drivers. If there are new ones around they should be found.
The only drivers Lenovo offers for the b320 are 32 for some reason and they may not be the best. I had a dead card reader, downloaded their drivers, and it did no good, asked the machine to update the driver, it did and it worked. I don't know where it found the driver but it was not lenovos download page.
Hopefully they will get some updated stuff soon. The tv software is poor at best.

Need Windows XP SP2 drivers for Satellite L645D-S4056

Hi,
I bought a Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4056 with Windows 7 installed. I need to re-format in install Windows XP SP2 to work with my software, and I need all the drivers. The website does not provide the XP drivers. Please help. Thank you.

According to the Toshiba the specs for your model, they included Windows 7 Home Premium edition with your new laptop. I don't know if you could get a full set Windows XP drivers for your quite new laptop, I personally doubt it.
I would suggest upgrading to Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate editions, both of which allow you to run in XP mode, for XP only compatible software.

Windows 7 (64bit) drivers for Tecra M9

When will be possible download drivers for Windows 7 64bit?

As far as I know Win7 support will starts when the Win7 is officially released. According different sources it should happen in October/November.
So, we must have patience and wait until Toshiba starts Win7 support. I use it on my Satellite Pro P300 and want to have all drivers too.

Windows 7 RTM drivers for sound control buttons and quick launch buttons on TX2

In the past two days this forum has helped me find several drivers for the TX2-1027CA tablet. Now I'd like to try to get two more - and I expect this will be more difficult to find, but here goes....
Is there a driver for the sound buttons (sound down, sound up, and mute) on the body of the tablet? Currently, with no driver, it has no effect to push them.
Is there a driver for the quick launch buttons (mediasmart, screen orientation, and so on) on the screen of the tablet? Pushing these also has no effect. Even better would be drivers that allow me to assign my own program choices, but I'll settle for the basic original functions.
Looking forward to any links as this software appears!

Hi Daniel. You seem to know what you're talking about, so perhaps you can help me. I bought my Pavilion dv7-1260us a mere 5 weeks before HP began offering its Windows 7 upgrade offer. Consequently, I had to purchase a retail version to upgrade. Now, I cannot reinstall the original programs and features my laptop came with (specifically, the MediaSmart soft-touch button above my keyboard will not work, and I've lost the Cyberlink DVD Suite 6 program entirely).
Do you happen to know how I may reinstall the Cyberlink DVD Suite 6 program and get my MediaSmart soft-touch key to work again? No one at HP Customer Care (including their Case Managers) can help. When I contacted Cyberlink, they told me I had to contact HP (vicious circle there), OR I have to purchase the program ($120 I don't have). I bought my laptop for school, and had to upgrade to Windows 7 because Vista Home Premium kept crashing (usually right in the middle of an online exam).
I would really like to have ALL of the programs and features working properly, but HP Customer Care will not help me unless I revert back to the unstable Vista Home Premium.
I greatly appreciate your assistance and hope you have a solution for me.
Sincerely,
Michael Walker

You're very welcome.
If the graphics driver works, it should install the drivers for the touchscreen too.
If not, try the one directly from Intel...

Windows 7 no drivers for IE

I am using a late 2011 edition of the macbook pro 13". I have installed windows and update the software and drivers via boot camp but when in windows the IE still has problem connecting to the internet and say that there are no drivers installed.My internet works fine on mac os. I am using mac os 10.7.4. tks alot in advance!

you have a network configuration issue, IE is just the "messenger"
And you have installed the Lion Windows Support Software drivers?
Next, configure using wired connection.
And yes just because it works under OS X has nothing to do with how your router/modem is configured to talk to Windows.
"No network connection" under Windows is a common thread here.

Windows 7 64bit Drivers for my Pavilion g7 2235dx

I had to "downgrade" my parents new laptop to Windows 7 because they found Windows 8 on a laptop to be hard to use. The problem I'm having is the HDMI port doesnt work, as well as the 2 USB ports right next to it. When I open the device manager, I see that the SM SERIAL BUS, ETHERNET ADAPTER and 2 other things in that category have yellow exclamation poin ts next to them. Now on the HP site, they dont support Windows 7 drivers. I do not know the manufacteur, what do I do??
Sincerely,
Desperate for help

So I tried googling the Device IDs and I solved a few of the problems. I downloaded AMD's Chipset Drivers Catalyst Software and Realteks Win7 and WinServer 2008 R2 Auto Installation Program and while it got rid of most of the yellow exclamation points, the one next to PCI Device remains, along with a blue question mark next to Unknown Device (under the Other Devices tab).
I still cant get the HDMI port to work, and I cant find any mention of my HDMI port under the Device Manager. The PCI device looks like its the port next to the HDMI and USB ports and it's for digital card readers for cameras and such. Also, when I plug into the HDMI port, there is no option for a second monitor under the Display tab when I right-click the desktop. The Detect button doesn't seem to work, and Identity just shows a large 1 on the laptop's monitor.
