| vista hp 32 | Spurious request for driver?!? In the summer i bought a photo keyring for my wife. It came with a disc to organise loading photos onto it. The disc was faulty so i just uninstalled what i could. Still, months later, at boot up, I am asked to insert the driver disc as soon as windows opens. Irritating, not fatal, but i would dearly like to resolve it. I have looked in start up, i really have no idea what i am doing though. Help please. |

| Vista Home Premium x86 / Win7 Ultimate x86 | Re: Spurious request for driver?!? It would help to know what the name of the program was called. If you can find it in startup, simply uncheck it. In the services tab right next to the startup tab, check the box that says "Hide all Microsoft services" and then see if you can find it there. Uncheck it. You can always recheck these items again, so don't worry about it. If neither of these work, see if you can find it in Device Manager (press win+r, type devmgmt.msc). You may want to try uninstalling the device from there, if one exists. This last step may require you to be a little more careful, so if you're unsure, post back here. By the way, I suggest using an advanced uninstaller, like Revo, to make sure programs don't leave any junk behind. Keep this thread posted. |
