  This irritating box was related to an add-on for AOL. In order to remove the extension of the problem, you will probably need to start Firefox in Safe Mode so that it does not work.

  You need to close Firefox anyway, you can, for example:

  • ALT + F4
  • Right click of its mosaic on the taskbar > close all windows
  • (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) Task Manager

  To start Firefox in Safe Mode, hold down the SHIFT key while double-clicking the shortcut.

  A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Then you can go to the Add-ons page using either:

• Wizard BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  How is it assistant BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  This has two questions:

  1 capacity of SSDS faster for Fusion drive has been reduced. Therefore less effective for the reader of the merger. For example if I need to create a partition of 80G for my windows bootcamp partition, only 48 G will be left in the drive of the merger.

  2. ability of the bootcamp windows partition becomes very limited, cannot be greater than 120 G.

  3. even when I try to fuse out of the drive of fusion in the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD disk, and then run the BootCamp assistant to create the bootcamp partition start from scratch to reinstall El Capitan only on the HARD drive (without drive Fusion), it won't let me do anything, it just shows an error that says something like "a person has created additional partitions on this drive please select. another disc. But there is nothing else to choose.

  Before my (5 K, 27 inches, end of 2014 retina) to El Capitan Yosemite, I was able to use the previous version of the wizard BootCamp 5.x to create the partition, bootcamp on the drive of the merger. And it will be divided in the fuser unit in two and insert the Bootcamp partition (with the size I chose, which can go up to 1 TB) between two partitions of MAC OSX.

  The disk partitions resulting from it, will be the partition MAC OS x on the SSD, the partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #1, partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #3.

  Then there is the BootCamp partition on the HARD drive partition #2.

  Is there a way to get what I need?

  That is what has been described in this notice of two canoes?

  Thank you.

  After having worked on those weeks, I realized that I need very painfully (by first going back to Yosemite and bootcamp 5 to escape all the limitations of El Capitan and BootCamp 6) I want to share here. Someone at - it other smarter solutions welcome.

  Note these steps and mentioned drivers only work for my version of iMAC, retina 5K late 2014. If you have other material, please search on the web to see which driver will work first. And all of these steps are destructive and assumed that you first take backup. It is only shared for interest only. Readers will have to bear your own risk.

  A. take backup

  1. take a backup completes my iMac Fusion Drive using Time Machine. Then restart with a Yosemite USB installation and select Terminal from the menu on the top bar.

  B. fuse out of the merger in two physical disks drive: SSD + HDD

  1. in the terminal, type the commands in show what the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the disc fusion)

  Cs diskutil list

  2. in the terminal, type commands for the fuse of the fuser unit and separate them to an SSD and a HARD drive.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the drive of the merger. There are many articles in this community on how this could be done,

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  This should finish within 30 minutes. If you have taken more time, this means that your reader of fusion has been altered somehow.

  I hit this issue too.  To use this command to remove the fusion drive hung up, and I need to do the hard to scramble a few sections of data in the hard disk partition table using the controls to tell the OSX this hard drive is a new without partitions:

  Cat >/dev/random /dev/disk0 (where/dev/disk0 is the SSD)

  and repeat for disk1/dev/disk1 which is the HARD drive in my case).

  This command will not return anything, but expect to press Ctrl-Z to end after 1 minute.

  2 create independent partitions (non-fusionend) for the installation of OSX.

  Borne Terminal output, and select disk utility, in disk utility, select the drive to HARD disk (and not on the partition), you will see the error message and you will be asked if you want to fix the fuser unit, click on ignore. Then wipe the HARD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"HARD drive".

  3. Repeat step 2, and then erase the SSD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"SSD ".

  C. install on the HARD disk as drive didier autonomous not fusion.

  1. go to Yosemite install screen and proceed with the installation of a clean copy of Yosemite to the iMAC. then connect you.

  D. use BootCamp Yosemite f5 to install windows.

  1. launch Yosemite bootcamp.

  2. check the two checkboxes for creating the USB drive to install windows 7 or a later version, and to download the windows supports the Apple software.  Do not click on the last box to install or remove windows pie creating real bootcamp partition again.

  3. it may take several hours to complete this function of your internet b/w and also performance of your USB drive.

  4. If you install Windows 7 (like me), then the downloaded drivers will not work for you, this will cause the issue of the device driver appleDSS.sys does not like this driver and others are too recent for windows 7 to use.  Also, your keyboard and mouse may not work even if you try to plug in a USB external keyboard or a mouse. You need to replace the drivers downloaded by others (the Boot Camp 5.1.5769 drivers that I find in this link: Software Support of Boot Camp 5.1.5769.) (Note: this driver is material specific only works for my iMAC model).  Once you have downloaded it, copy the two files in the root directory of the USB installation to replace the original ones. It's specific and material available for download somewhere on the Apple Site.

  -From the Finder, delete the $WinPE$ and the Boot Camp of the FLASH PLAYER files.

  -Expand the old drivers for Boot Camp 5.1.5769 (two records and another file) on your desktop.

  -Copy the $WinPE$ and records of Boot Camp in the FLASH PLAYER.

  5. open Boot Camp Assistant again and only select the third option, install Windows 7.

  It will show you the screen to select what installation disk, select HARD drive.

  Then drag the slide bar to select the size of the Bootcamp partition for windows you want, knowing that there is a restriction for windows installed using training camp on a MAC that the last byte of the BootCamp partition must reside in the first byte of the 2.2 T of each physical hard drive.

  For my case, I need only 500G for bootcamp and leaving behind 1.7 to for my MAC OSX partition immediately after the bootcamp partition and an another 0.8 T MAC OSX partition after him. 1.7 TB and the partition of MAC OS x 0.8 TB well exploited in the meantime bootcamp partition, will be merged into a fusion drive by Bootcamp. Thus, you will end up with total 2.5 TB of disk space in a logical drive - fuser.

  F. reinstall OSX El Capitan

  Once your target windows system (if windows 7, windows 8 or windows 10) works very well.  You can continue to create again your Fusion drive and reinstall OSX El Capitan.

  1. Insert the install of OSX Yosemite rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

• XP installs - ntdlr.dll missing on the Satellite P300-133

  We bought the satellite P300 with preinstalled Vista. It worked fine except for some major programs for hardware configuration in our society.

  So, we tried to install XP Professional on the primary partition that has been formatted before that. The blue screen where XP installs its files (after you have created the partition and formatting it) on the end to 99%, it says 'missing ntdlr.dll '.

  We first tought it has something to do with the SATA compatibility mode which we configured in the BIOS to cause driver AHCI missing on the XP CD. Then, we did a backup CD with nLite with the SATA drivers installed and run the AHCI mode.

  The same problem at the same point. I DIND'T try with another copy of XP but I know that it (a month old scratch free original CD) works very well because I installed it on another laptop front.

  The only thing that is strange od these partitions are mixed to the top. The partition where Vista was before is now D, it is also the reader where we tried to install XP, C is not the car with all the previous system backups and F it seams to be the Vista installation files.

  Please any suggestions, its very urgent

• Satellite U400: Installation of XP and change the partitions

  Hello!

  First of all, sorry for my English, it is not good, I hope you understand me!

  I have a Satellite U400, and I would like to create a partition to install XP and have a dual boot with Vista.

  My first question is:
  I have seen that it is possible to download all the drivers xp... but they are the only upgrade, or in the book there is not driver for Xp in default?
  I need to install any drivers? And when I install it?
  Immediately after the first installation of XP?

  The second question is: I tried to resize the Vista partition, but Vista says it's impossible resize as much as I want to, because of file sharing and the snapshot.
  Can you help me solve this problem too?

  Thank you for your support!

  Bye!

  As to the question;

  (* 1) * first of all, you should check what model number you have. Driver Toshiba page provide XP drivers for 4 different U400 series.
  XP drivers that are released in the page are the most recent versions and if you want to use all the features of the laptop all the XP drivers must be installed after the installation of XP operating system.

  But before you try to install XP, you must include the SATA driver in XP. The SATA drivers are located in the Intel storage Manger.
  Please also check this forum for more information how to include the driver SATA in XP operating system.

  (* 2) * I guess you cannot shrink the partition because Vista needs a part on the partition for paging.
  It is an OS feature that allows you to use the HDD as RAM temporal.

  Please visit this 3rd party for more details:
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/Understanding-Windows-Vista-paging-file-size/

  In your case, I would leave a few more space on the partition to make sure that this feature might work properly.

  >... didn't start Guide so didn't know was going to take so long.
  That's the problem. After the first boot recovery image installation will be launched and a lot of different drivers and software components must be installed correctly. This procedure can take more than an hour and must not be interrupted.

  I assume that laptop now stuck on some some step and the installation cannot continue.
  F8 option works when the installation is completed successfully.

  What to do now?
  I don't know where you bought this laptop, but maybe you can talk with your local dealer about your problem. If they have the same specifications in their showroom you can ask them if they can create the recovery to disk and you can use for installing the OS.
  Second option is to order directly installation disk from Toshiba under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx but you must pay for it.

  Let me know what you think of this.

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  From your description, it seems that, after you have installed the correct video driver for your ProBook (15.201.1301) AMD, Windows Update is then by installing a different driver on top of that, right version?

  If this is the case, you must follow these instructions to STOP Windows update update drivers: how stop Windows 10 to update automatically the device drivers - windows Windows 10-10

  Once you do this, you should not see updates to the pilot after that.

  Good luck

• How can I get the installer for my application check the operating system type and then install the correct driver type?

  I have a request that I wrote and have been use and distribute for awhile. The installer I created for this application is an additional installer to install a driver for the USB connection. The USB connection is actually a virtual COM Port. The problem is that the people who drafted modified driver setup the installation program itself. They used to have an installer that would check for 32-bit or 64-bit OS and then install the appropriate driver.

  Now, they have two distinct installation programs: one for the other for 32-bit and 64-bit. They let the user know their OS and install the appropriate driver. I'd rather not have to rely on my users to do. From what I've seen the creater Installer provides that an executable to be run after the application installs.

  Is it possible to have the installer of the application, check the type of OS and then run the correct executable file after installing my application? I think that I could write an Installer 'wrapper' that checks the type of operating system then executes the correct Installer. But I expect a better solution.

  Thank you
  Joe

  So, I make it work!

  The trick is to find a way to determine what type of OS you are using. The method I used was, indeed, read the environment variable. A buddy of mine sent me this link:

  http://StackOverflow.com/questions/2401756/how-to-find-if-the-machine-is-32bit-or-64bit One of the phrases he bibliography the Processor_Architecture environment variable.

  It seemed like a reasonable idea. So I started to research how read LV it environment variables turns out, you do it by reading a registry key. There is an example of LV on how to read a registry key. But I did not know where they are in the registry. So, I searched the Processor_Architecture registry. I found it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment.

  According to the article in the link, this value will already be x 86 for a 32 bit OS, or something with 64 inside. I just check the response for x 86 string. If it is, I just run the x 86 version of the driver Installer. Otherwise, I run the x 64 version.

  It turned out to be as simple as that.

  I hope this helps someone.

• For about two weeks screen installation 18 Windows updates at the stop.

  For about two weeks when I shut down Windows 7, I get the message that Windows installs updates 18; do not to stop the computer.   The screen shows that each update is installed and the computer then goes to the closure program.  Installation time is always the same, which indicates that there may be a problem and I see the same updates on a daily basis.

  I did some research on anti virus program bundled in this machine.  I thought I had seen the McAffe program, but apparently, he was anti Norton virus.

  The procedure will be similar, Yes:

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. click right on the file saved in #1 above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4 uninstall AVG Free 9.0 & reboot.

  HOW to uninstall or change a program

  ATTENTION! Now you're "working without a net": no to anything else online (e.g., navigation, control electronics, cat, other downloading) until you have completed the steps #5 and #6 below!

  5. now to do a fresh install of AVG Free 9.0, this time select the CUSTOM installation option and do NOT install (uncheck) Linkscanner Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, security or the email of crawl components toolbar.

  6. manually and regularly update AVG until you get a prompt "no more updates available.

  7 test cycle.

  Note: If you also think there could be a McAfee application installed at a certain point, he could not not bad for download/run the McAfee tool, too, before proceeding to the 'custom' own installation of AVG 9.0.

  Most of these modules of 9 AVG is not compatible with IE8 IMHO (especially LinkScanner). Do yourself a favor & don't install them.
