No New Hardwear

Hi folks i am a new user to computers so may be a little dumb when it comes to how the thing works. I have win xp sp2 my browser is IE7 and i have maxthon but have not learned to use that yet. my problem is that when i boot up for the first time each day i have a popup screen that says setup wizard has found new hardwear if you have a disc from your supplier please insert now, as i have no new hardwear i don´t understand ? if i press search it spends 3 or 4 minutes and then says no files found if i cancel it i have a popup on the tool bar "your new hardwear is not installed and may not work".
can you help please

 

Goto:

Start --> Settings --> Control Panel

Double Click on System

Click on the Hardware tab

Click Device Manager.

Look through the list and see if there are any devices with Red or Yellow error icons and tell me here. These are hardware devices that are not installed or are disabled.

 

when i click start i do not have a settings option i can only go to control panel

 

OK Goto Start and then Control Panel and follow the rest of my instructions.

 

ok will do

 

ok i have only one it is "pci simple comunications controller"sorry i forgot to say it is yellow

 

This is probably a modem. Do you have a Driver disc for the modem in your computer? It may be an onboard modem so you may need the mainboard disk for your computer.

Try putting the cd in the drive and allowing it to search again.

If you still have problem you can search for the dirvers on the manufacturers site.

If you STILL can't find it and have no use for a modem you can right click on it in device manager and disable it.

 

i have bluetooth installed plus sony ericson pc suite is it possible that these are the problem if so i can uninstall

 

I don't think this is the problem.

Try disabling the device as descibed above and see if your bluetooth still works with your mobile.

 

ok i will try that if i still have problems i will come back to the same thread thanks for your help
