Found New Hardware // CommunityscrebJun 26, 2003, 1:56pm
Since I've upgraded to 3.4 I've got this weird problem:
When I enter certain worlds (one of them is AW), my "found new harware wizzard" opens. When I continieu, the wizzard can't tell me what kind of device it finds, so it can't complete the installation of it... Sometimes it makes my puter freeze, sometimes when I cancel it finds the hardware again and sometimes it just doesn't.... Now at the same time as I upgraded to 3.4 I also installed Direct-X 9... Does anyone know what this problem could be? Has one got to do with the other?? Any tip or solution is welcome here, cause it is very annoing at times... screb weeboJun 26, 2003, 3:06pm
What I would do first is Right click on your "My Computer" icon on the
desktop and select Properties. Click on the Hardware tab and Device Manager. Open those up until you find a yellow ? then right click on it and check Properties, It should give you a clue why the "Found Hardware Wizard" is trying to open. It may be something as simple as plugging in multiple items on a USB port or needing drivers somewhere. XP doesn't always have the drivers for the devices needed. Weebo [View Quote] |
