User question

Hello!

I needed to transfer photos from my phone to my computer. I connected this device to the PC (the computer sees it), and even tries to install the drivers, but to no avail. I tried to manually search for drivers through the device manager, it says that there are drivers, but cannot install them because: “The service installation section in this INF file is incorrect.”

Help me please...

Good day!

Relatively recently, I was restoring the operation of one laptop... When I connected the phone to it, absolutely nothing happened: Windows 10 installed on it did not find the drivers and did not automatically install them.

Moreover, the second Windows 7 OS saw the phone in normal mode and it was possible to exchange files. It was clear that the problem was with the OS, and after a few minutes a solution was found. I will share it here, I mean that this problem is quite popular...

Solving the problem of installing "firewood" step by step

1) Is your device visible? Are the cables and ports working?

The first thing I recommend starting with is to decide: " does your device see the laptop (computer)?. It is possible that there is a problem with the cable or USB port, and when you connect the phone, it is simply “invisible”, which is why the drivers are not installed.

How to determine this?

Very simple. Notice whether the battery appears to be charging when you connect the device to a PC USB port? If it appears, then most likely everything is in order with the USB cable and port. By the way, pay attention to whether a characteristic sound appears in Windows when the device is connected.

You can also connect other devices to the USB port with this cable, or connect the phone to another PC. In general, decide whether the equipment itself works...

2) Checking the device manager - searching for unknown hardware

And so, the ports seem to be working, the cable too - the next step is to see if the equipment is displayed in the device manager.

To open Device Manager:

  1. Press a combination of buttons WIN+R;
  2. enter the command devmgmt.msc
  3. click OK.
  4. The method works in all modern versions of Windows (note: in Windows 10, by the way, to open the device manager, you can simply right-click on the START menu).

In Device Manager, expand the tab "Other devices" . It is in it that all those devices that the computer (laptop) sees, but cannot install drivers, should be displayed. The screenshot below shows just such a case: the phone is visible to the PC, but cannot install Windows 10 drivers in auto mode...

3) How to find and install the required driver - solution attempt No. 1

First, I recommend trying to find and install exactly the driver that is recommended for your equipment, based on its Property IDs(each equipment has its own identification data, so you can search for drivers even without knowing the exact brand of the device).

To view ID properties, right-click on unknown device (note: by the way, when you disconnect a device from the USB port, this unknown device should disappear from the other devices tab ), and go to its properties.

Next, simply paste the copied line into any search engine (Google, Yandex) and find the driver for your device. Next, run its installation and test its operation (in many cases, you won’t have to do anything else).

4) Finding and installing the driver in Windows auto mode - attempt No. 2

Modern Windows versions(8, 10) can automatically find and install drivers for many devices, and they do it quite well.

To check if this works: go to device Manager, then click right mouse button by the desired device (for example, by an unknown device), and in the pop-up context menu - select "Update drivers..." .

In general, the method is quite good and helps out in many cases, but in mine it didn’t work, after a while it was said that:

  • There was a problem during the software installation process for of this device
  • Third party MPT DEVICE INF does not contain signature information (see screenshot below).

5) Selecting a driver from those already installed is another solution to the problem

I’ll say one seditious thing: some people are looking for a miracle driver to solve this problem, but there is no problem as such. The drivers they are looking for have already been on their PC for a long time, there was simply an error in identifying the device and driver, and therefore the computer simply does not accept them. You need to show him the path to them again, and everything will work...

Therefore, if the previous steps did not help, I recommend opening device Manager (how this is done, see above in the article) , expand tab "Other devices" (it shows all the devices for which there is no “firewood”) , right-click on the desired device and select an option (as in the screenshot below).

In the next step, do not specify the folder with drivers, but click on the link "Select a driver from the list already installed drivers" (see screenshot below)

Voila! The drivers were installed successfully. When I log into Explorer, I see the phone and is displayed in "This computer" , now you can upload files to it and upload photos from it (problem solved).

Successfully installed!

Note: if instead of a message about successful installation you see an error (for example, also related to the INF file), click the button "Back", and try to continue the installation again. This is exactly the method that helped me...

This is where I end this article, good luck!

When installing absolutely any software, various errors may occur. There is no template answer or advice for such cases. The occurrence of such problems depends on many different factors: software category, OS version, bit depth, availability malware and so on. Quite often, errors occur when installing software for nVidia video cards. It's about mistakes nVidia drivers today we'll talk. In this article we will look at the most popular of them and tell you about effective ways troubleshooting.

If you're having trouble installing drivers for your nVidia graphics card, don't despair. Perhaps our lesson will help you get rid of the error. So let's get started.

Error 1: nVidia installer failed

This error is the most common problem with installing nVidia software. Please note that the example shows four items, but you may have more or less. The essence in all cases will be the same - software glitch. There are several ways to try to fix the error.

Installing official drivers.

Do not under any circumstances try to install software that was downloaded from dubious and unverified sites. For these purposes there is. If you downloaded drivers from other sources, then visit the nVidia website and download the software from there. It is best to download and install the latest drivers.

Cleaning the system from old versions of drivers.

To do this, it is better to use specialized programs that will remove old drivers from absolutely everywhere. We recommend using the Display Driver Uninstaller or DDU utility to do this.


Virus software and antivirus.

In rare cases, the above error may be caused by a virus that “lives” on your computer. Conduct a system scan to identify such pests. Sometimes, it is not the virus itself that can interfere, but the antivirus software. Therefore, if you did not find any viruses after scanning, try disabling your antivirus while installing the nVidia drivers. Sometimes it helps.

Error 2: Wrong bit depth and system version

Such an error often means that when choosing a driver, you simply made a mistake in the version of your operating system and/or its bitness. If you do not know these parameters, then you need to do the following.


Error 3: Incorrect video card model selected

The error highlighted in the screenshot with a red frame occurs quite often. It means that the driver you are trying to install does not support your video card. If you just made a mistake, then you just need to go to and carefully fill out all the points. Then download the software and install it. But what if you don’t actually know the model of your video adapter? In this case, you need to do the following.


If for some reason you are unable to find out the model of your adapter this way, you can always do this using the device ID code. We discussed how to search for software for a video card using an identifier in a separate lesson.

We have shown you the most common errors that you may encounter during the installation of nVidia software. We hope you will be able to resolve the issue. Please note that each error may be specific to your system. Therefore, if you were unable to correct the situation using the methods described above, write in the comments.
