What up guys/gals, got driver issues with my printer, iPod and cell phone.
I started having an issue with my printer allegedly having a paper jam, but there was no paper jam. Then the printer wouldn't print anything, again the printer alleges a paper jam that is not there? So I pulled the printer plug out for awhile and restarted, but still couldn't print anything. Then I rebooted my computer, still couldn't print anything.
Then I checked device manager and saw the yellow exclamation points next to my iPod, Brother printer and cell ZTE Metro cell phone. I trouble shooted each one with the Windows trouble shooter and it said to reinstall the drivers. But I saw no options to reinstall, just update and uninstall.
I then installed a few Windows updates (WU) and now I can't open device manager, nor WU? Got a message: "With a Red X: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion." No really?
Also when I click on icons like iTunes it won't open like it normally does? Or it takes several minutes to open then just spins and now won't play...WTF? Cursed...:devil:? The iTunes player shows the icon on the bottom of my screen, but it won't open up and play? Now I can't even close out the iTunes small window?
I also tried to open Malewarebytes, but that won't open either...TF is going on?
My Wise cleaner program is just spinning also, is greyed out and not responding...NF Clue?
Not sure what's going on here, so I'm shutting down my computer for awhile and come back later, to see if anythings changed? Any help appreciated, thanks.
