HP Pav. Dv7 LT, Vista 64 bit, SP2
My mediasmart touch media controllers no longer work to increase or decrease volume, though mute works, as does Wireless touch light; my touchpad scroll feature no longer works either, though the light is on & it works as a touchpad like normal. I've downloaded & attempted to install the updated software for the mediasmart, but had "path not found" error messages, so I went back to download & install the original older version 2.2 I believe, but that had same error messages of oath not found, along with permission errors! I'm unable to install any of the update software from HP site for my laptop ![]()
None of the original HP media software has worked on my LT right, from the beginning, I've used other software instead, for writing CD/DVDs & playing media files, etc. My webcam works in Skype, but not in HP software for it, etc. I've been downloading these 231 MB update files all day & getting no resolution or install of these updates.
When I tried opening ANY of the HP mediasmart software from Start Button, it acts like it is starting--the circle cursor goes active--then nothing happens, yet I've never uninstalled the software that was originally setup when I bought this LT, I just haven't used it. HP update hasn't worked in over a year either--it never find any updates! (It "works" or seems to, but never has any results).
