SOURCE: Nothing happens when I insert the recovery disc

when it tells you to take out every disc, leave the recovery disc as it contains the files needed for it to recover your system to factory specs

SOURCE: Receive message "cannot install" after

Hi,

Good day. If you're getting this kind of message there's a big possibility that your installer for hp office jet pro is already been damaged or got corrupted. What you can do is to download another driver to resolve the problem.

You can download this driver scanner so that once it is installed on your system if will automatically update or install the driver for your hp. Here's the link

http://drivers-driver.com/hp-officejet-pro-l7700


remember:

1. click download now
2. then install
3. then run the driver scanner and just follow the direction to fix the driver for your hp office jet

If you think that it didn't resolve your issue you can just uninstall it from your computer.
Hope this help you a bit. Have a great day.

If its an older recorder it could be the usual problem of a greasy center-disc =
95% OF THE TIMES I could fix a problem like this was by cleaning with rubbing alcohol the rubber ring on the little rotating disc in the center of the drive mechanism. !!!! Because users always stick their index finger into the hole of all the CD'S for inserting a disc into the tray that a tiny amount of grease gets deposited onto the little rotation disc which touches the center of any inserted disc at about half an inch from its center hole. (underneath) When its greasy the discs slide and the inserted discs speed stays uneven and slow.
You must open the drivebox ( after unplugging the power-cable) to see and clean it.
Be careful to not look at it with power "on" because the laser will make you go blind (danger!!!!!!!
I heavily use a Toshiba DVD recorder since 12 years and it is my most reliable and most versatile recorder, while my brand new Sony recorder lasted only 2 years - Others as well had problems with finalizing etc. but in general the cleaning of the little center-disc that pushes from underneath against an inserted DVD to make it spin helps the most.

I have a pioneer ev7dvd dvd player and i bought a movie called kung fu panda and when i inserted the dvd, there is a "no disc".how could i solve this problem?

If all othere discs are playing except the disc mentioned then it is possible that the format or the disc is faulty. Please check this out on your PC, check the properties to see the format file.
If the player is not reading any disc after this disc was played then is possible that the optical head is damaged.
try cleaning the optical unit as a last resort.

The camera may display a FORMAT ERROR if the inserted media is not formatted or if the media was formatted on a computer. This error may also display if the inserted media is not supported by the camera.
Please make sure that you're using either CD -R disc which does not require formatting or CD -RW disc.
If you're using any other discs like CD +RW, CD+R may arise the error message.
If the issue persists with a new different CD -R disc, service may be required for the Camera.

Have you tried inserting other game discs? like 3 types of disc. If your Wii console plays those discs and don't play with the game disc that you wanted to play, then the format of that disc is not recognized by console. Some disc formats are sometimes incompatible with the player console.

Start by checking the DVR format compatibility list, see if the dvd format matches. The check DVR settings for playing features that can be adjusted. Try other DVD's that have worked on your DVR previously.
