I've had problems with Windows 7 Ultimate for a number of months since startup of my new build. Specifically with downloading any non Microsoft.exe files (probably would if trying to run them), will not print in windows 7 (basic printing), and can't get my speakers to work. Also, the Media Player seems not to work when trying to download video's from DVDs. I can only use MS Essentials, updated and system checked daily, for my security & the Wndows firewall. Complete Essentials scans finds no Virus's, malware, etc.
I normally keep my security settings high EXCEPT when downloading programs, accessing online accounts, etc. Obviously, I had no problems with this site.
My build is-
Mothb. -Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P
CPU- AMD Phenom II 4x 955 Deneb AM3
Graphics C.-Asus Eah 4890 DDR5
Mem- 4 Gb Cousair
HDDs- 2 WD 750 & 1 Tb.
2 DVD/CD burners
Monitor - Samsung HDMI
Speakers - 2 Logitech plain, std.
Printer- Hp Officejet Pro K550dtn (Legacy - know HP doesn't have Win. 7 drivers)
I hope you guys can offer me some assistance since this has been very, very frustrating. Scoured the Microsoft Windows forums, Instuctions, etc. and still can't solve my problems. Moderators on the Windows sites seem to refer all problems to MS instruction pages that have not helped me. I hope I have provided enough ifo. If not please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
