If you have a new printer and did the install of the software following your owner manual and are having this problem you need to contact the manufacturer and find out if they have a solution, it could be you need a new or different driver or it could be you have some corrupt files in your pc or registry. With a printer always be sure you do the install in the specific order they tell you to.
You can try going to the manufacturer site look for your model then see if you can do a search there for that error you might find a solution there.

NewDev. hmm
Might also try running the System File Checker - it will check, verify, and replace any busted windows files. Some can run it , some not.

From the run line off the start button popup menu... type, or copy & paste;
SFC /ScanNow

give it a few minutes to do its checking. Tiny message box with the gradual completion bar.

Interesting enough, computer was fine until I tried to open Photoshop C3. Like last week, it gets stuck on MMXCore Routines when opening. Tried uninstalling it last week, but apparently it didn't happen. Thought maybe it would open since computer was running okay now. Computer crashed. Here are the crash reports for today: On Mon 3/19/2012 4:53:24 PM GMT your computer crashed crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\Mini031912-01.dmp This was probably caused by the following module: win32k.sys (win32k+0x9D10D) Bugcheck code: 0x7A (0xFFFFFFFFC0600058, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000056, 0xFFFFFFFFB5D20884, 0xFFFFFFFFC000B000) Error: KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR file path: C:\Windows\system32\win32k.sys product: Microsoft� Windows� Operating System company: Microsoft Corporation description: Multi-User Win32 Driver Bug check description: This bug check indicates that the requested page of kernel data from the paging file could not be read into memory.

Help setting up DH's new laptop

Q

Snidely - good point about not removing things if they're not causing trouble - lest they turn out to have been needed. So I have left some things that I have no idea about. I did delete Dell Stage - bc. it's a real pain - gets in the way all the time (my daughter who's had this on her laptop for 2 years confirmed that it's just in the way). I did all the microsoft updates, ran a few antivirus, got rid of what I want to get rid of, and it's mostly good to go. Here's the trouble that remains: I can't get the printer working. It's a Canon Pixma MX850 - on the home network. I did not want to install the Canon disk bc. it has a ton of it's own bloatware. So I went to Canon and downloaded the driver - as well as the IJ utility software (I think that helps the computer find a printer on the network). Went to devices and printers, added the printer and made it the default printer. It shows up in printers and devices, but when I go to print something, it fails. Troubleshooting says the test page didn't print bc. something else is in the queue. But there is nothing else in the queue. I opened the queue from my pain desktop (that's connected to the printer) - and there's no documents in the queue. Went to the printer queue on DH's lapto; - it also shows nothing in the queue. I can print from other computers. Don't know what else to do. And I just remembered that I did not see Java. It didnt come up as needing updating when I ran the Secunia scan. I am not sure which programs need it, but can imagine my husband being stumped if he tries to do something that needs Java and asks him to install. I'd like to install it for him. Got to remember that. I also have a question about Microsoft Security Essentials. Twice now it found something bad - and I selected to remove the couple of files. Does this AV just run in the background or do I also need to run scans? Thank you. Lynn.

Computer crashes at start up

Hi jean_mi_z5, Reports inconclusive to me. It's showing a lot of system file crashes, but those crashes can be caused by 3ed party files / drives causing the Microsoft drivers to crash and I don't see any 3ed party listed. If you're having a lot of blue screens and it appears you are, I strongly recommend you post at the link provided.

I typed newdev.dll 1% is not an active Win32 file into Google; first 2 hits had a solution. Same solution.

Both used RegCure Registry Scanner which magically fixt it.

RegCure does not appear to be freeware ...

Mikie you beat me to it.

Sorry about that - I shoulda lookt at it closer....

Well I sort of thought the hype about RegCure looked a bit contrived - suspected it might have been self serving so I messed around with it some and..

You have to buy RegCure - I didn't see that right off. I tried it and it found 487 problems of which it fixt 3; the rest if it got registered. They haven't sent the KEY yet. Maybe you get one free run, ie one free fix w/o money.

I ran Abexo and got 33 errors which I left. I ran RegSeeker (Same outfit ?) which got 115 errors which I eliminated. I re-ran Abexo and got 11 errors which I eliminated. I reran RegCure and got 473 errors. I reran Regseeker and got 6 errors which I eliminated. I re-re ran RegCure and got 477 errors which remain unfixt.

What a crock!

The mind boggles. For sure the RegCure ran way faster than tuthers. Perhaps it would be worth the money vs buying another printer but I spect it would be a gamble.

Perhaps RegCure ran faster because it never actually tested anything? These 'come ons' only want money, they tell you there are large numbers of errors to scare the bejabbers about of nervous computer users.

yikes yet another registry cleaner that promises you world peace on a golden platter!! Geeze man what a crock indeed.
And if you do use them and let them delete what they want hope to high heaven you don't end up with a computer that is now a door stop because it hosed the thing.
Step away from the reg cleaners LOL

When I got my new HP all in one I installed exactly as directed but kept getting an error message I went to HP site and did a search and found that was a common error message and it required a different install cd so they sent me out the new cd and all was well.

Sorry it took me so long to get back. I've already "bought" Max Reg Cleaner for $30 and it didn't help at all. I think you're right, it's a hype.

Another thing is that this started with my HP that I had already so it isn't the PC and probably isn't the CD either although it could be.

I tried running the SFC /ScanNow and it started but then said that it couldn't run it all. It said that I have to insert my XP Home Edition CD and I don't have one. It was loaded when I got it and they didn't give me a copy.

I'm pretty sure it's a corrupted file but haven't been able to find any info on how to repair it.

I'll keep trying and thank everyone for the help. If you think of anything else I'd appreciate it.

Think I'd go to Services and Stop the Print Spooler if its started and set it to manual or disabled then unplug the printers usb cord ... uninstall the printer then After about hour or more shut down for a while.

Then in a few days try installing it again folioing the printer install instructions.

Xp sometimes would do delays configurations here - strange stuff with hardware drivers several days after the install.
Vista Microsoft say has an Hour's window before it updates configuration changes.

And there's sometimes some magic with hardware when you power down for a while and that hardware is not starting up at boots. Disappears from dmi after some period of time , then windows reenumerates it fully & clean at a future use or install.
