Since I installed Windows 7 Ultimate more than a year ago, my screen saver has never worked. On doing extensive web search, I have come to a conclusion that the culprit is the Microsoft wireless desktop set (700v2.0) and that installation of an update 'HID Non-User Input Data Filter' from Microsoft Update Catalog would resolve the problem. I have downloaded the corresponding file folder (Microsoft - Other hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter (KB 911895) containing a cab file from the Microsoft site which contains the file. Since then I have been trying various suggestions for installing updates using cab files including the article but nothing seems to work. Can someone please suggest a simple way to somehow install the update.

I may also mention here that my basic problem is screen saver not working for which I have tried all suggested remedies including clean boot, Windows Update (installation is set for automatic updated and is up-to-date) and installing the latest drivers for the wireless mouse and keyboard. In other words, I have tried all possible solutions except KB 911895, where I am stuck about installing the update because it is only available as a cab file.

If some one has some other solution for reviving screen saver, it is most welcome! • Does the screensaver simply not run as scheduled or is there an error? • If there’s an error, what is the exact error message?

The update which you trying to install that is for Windows XP and will not install on Windows 7. And for screensaver issue.You can create a new user account and check. If it works in a new user account, then probably your user account may have been corrupted and would need a fix. Create a user profile Now check for the issue. Follow the below provided link to fix the corrupted user profile. Microsoft-Forum Moderator.

Screensaver simply does not function - in fact, it has never worked since installation a little over one year ago. Mine is a stand alone PC connected to internet through ADSL router of MTNL Triband internet service. I am the only user and administrator currently. You are right that the fix mentioned by me was originally given for Windows XP but the same is also now made available for Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) on the Microsoft Catelog site. I will try the change user suggestion and revert to you after the same.

Hello, my name is Emmers Presson. I am a Support Escalation Engineer for Microsoft in the Windows Core team. The purpose of this blog is to give you the steps to install a hotfix (or any other “package”) on the currently running operating system using the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) command.

DISM is a new command-line tool that comes built-in for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 is the DISM tool. DISM combines the functions of multiple tools from the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) and allows users to perform multiple actions on operating system images. For the most part, this involves viewing and manipulating “offline images” which are in the Windows Imaging (WIM) file format. Here is a good reference that explains the function of the DISM tool and what the DISM tool is meant to replace: There are also some DISM commands that target the running operating system (“online”). For example, you can use the following command to list the “packages” installed: dism /online /get-packages /format:table The command-line switch to install a package is “/Add-Package.” Let’s say that you are running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise and you want to install the hotfix KB976571. When you download the hotfix file, the file name is “Windows6.1-KB976571-v2-x64. Ps3 Wireless Controller On Pc Usb Stick. msu.” When you look at the DISM syntax in online help, you would assume that following syntax would work: DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:c: kb976571 Windows6.1-KB976571-v2-x64.msu where the.MSU file is stored in the c: kb976571 folder.
