  • Tecra M9 and M10 wheel Volume does not not under Vista

    Hello

    I hope that someone can help me, I'm Vista using Microsoft Deployment Workbench deployment for Tecra M9 and M10 material and the volume knob will not work. I added the drivers of Toshiba in Deployment Workbench, while they are presented the machines via Plug n Play, volume button do not work. I also deleted the drivers of Deployment Workbench and installed the drivers manually on the machines, this installs fine, but volume knob will not work. I have two development servers, Win Server 2003 and Win Server 2008, the two do not run successfully the pilot slots.

    If I deploy a standard Win Vista Enterrprise 32 bit OS of DVD hardware, with any driver when it is installed, the volume wheel works. I can then manually install the audio driver and the volume button still works. But if I deploy the same exact DVD based OS of Deployment Workbench, the volume knob does not work?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is doing my head and holding up the deployment of the new image.

    Thank you

  • Administrator password does not not under Vista

    I have a new desktop computer with Vista and have worked on getting it set up. I've set up user accounts, but my password of the administrator account does not work. I tried all the options and checked the capslock and even tried a few misspellings, even if I don't have a problem the first 4 or 5 times I had used it. is there anyway to reset it without having to reinstall Windows since I don't have a password reset disk?

    You did not account for additional user with administrative privileges? If this isn't the case, you will need to use a program like NTpasswd empty password for your account, so you can connect.

    Download the bootable CD .iso image file, burning with burning software, third party (as an image, not in the form of data), starting with the media that you have created. You need to maybe change the boot order in the BIOS or obtain a menu of boot command temporary with the pressure of a special key. NTpasswd will run. Follow the instructions carefully.

    http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

    Once you're back in the system, here are my suggestions for how to configure user accounts in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    Hello

    Troubleshooting explains how to upgrade the video driver (graphics card) and others as needed.

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - graphics card - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on set to update driver
    (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with
    their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), then the manufacturer of the device
    site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and)
    software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - reset after each
    installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up.
    This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so
    install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and try again if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check manually
    by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
    questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
    manually if you wish.

  • Dv5 does not load Vista, failing hard drive test

    I have a laptop HP DV5 with Vista - 2 years and more under warranty.  He had some problems with Windows Update error codes, I did a system restore to a point a little backward.  This does not solve the problem, so I tried to cancel restoring the system back to the State of our days.  This was fine, but then the system locked up when he tried to restart itself-it has attempted to restart for 45 minutes and got nowhere, so I turned off.  This throw Windows completely, as the system restore was not full yet, so now that my computer will boot the HP logo and start up options, but then get hung up trying to load windows (I have a black screen with a scroll bar down cycles endlessly with Microsoft Corporation written below)

    Bottom line - I can't get the computer to boot windows, and system recovery does not work.  Tried directly from the hard drive and vain and ordered HP-put one disk disks this morning, once removed from the HP screen, I get the bar "Windows loading files" at the bottom, which ends in about a minute, but then it just goes back to its normal load upward, with the scroll bar and Microsoft Corporation at the bottom of the screen.  So I can't open basically even the system restore window.

    I just ran the self-test of the primary hard drive and had hard disk Test do not.  I'm not particularly computer saavy (I didn't know that to do this test in reading this forum), if anyone can tell me what I should do next?  I don't want to go somewhere and get screwed!

    Thank you!

    -Becky

    Hi Becky,

    The result of the primary Hard Drive Self Test means your hard drive is defective and must be replaced.  It is the HARD drive in my dv5.

    http://www.Amazon.co.UK/320GB-Scorpio-WD3200BEVT-SATA-5400rpm/DP/B0013E0A0M

    Hard drive replacement is not difficult (generally remove two screws from the cover of the HARD drive on the bottom of your laptop, remove a futher two screws holding the disc in place then pulling on one leg to lift the reader.  Then unscrew the metal casing around your old drive - often called the caddy drive - attaching to your new drive, insert the new drive, fix it with two screws and replace the cover.  Then simply insert your recovery DVDs to load Vista on your new drive.  Here is a Youtube video showing this.

    I hope this helps.

  • Gamepad not working do not under Vista

    My Windows Vista loaded and runs MS Combat Flight Simulator V1 OK using the keyboard, in 'settings' program, he recognizes the joystick for calibration but joystick doesn't work just not in the game itself. I tried this fix below - but no luck. Any other ideas please?

    If you upgrade to Windows Vista, one of the things that you may find is that your older programs works under Vista. Many software publishers are working to release Vista compatible versions, but in the meantime, you can try running in Compatibility Mode applications.

    To do:

    1. open Windows Explorer.
    2. Locate the executable file of the application.
    3. right click on the executable, and then click the properties option.
    4. Select the Compatibility tab.
    5. Select run this program in Compatibility Mode option.
    6. in the drop-down list, choose the operating system that you ran before upgrading to Vista.
    7. If necessary, select run the program as administrator.
    8. click on OK.

  • Satellite P300D-15O - display drivers does not-XP/Vista

    Hi all

    After buying this Satellite P300D-15O tried several times the reinstallation of operating systems: Windows XP Pro, Windows Vista x 32 and x 64 version, but does not display drivers offered by Toshiba downloads: it runs only the Windows standard vga drivers after you have installed and not working drivers for AMD/ATI HD3470.

    Max resolution is 1152 x 864. The laptop has been pre-installed with Vista Home Premium and good work and resolution of 1440 x 900 ATI drivers; but I want a new installation on my own without any addition of pre-installed software from McAfee/Google etc - The Toshiba telephone Customer Service can't help for this problem, they have NO answer, :(! Is there a solution with the inf files? Can anyone help!

    THX, endo

    Hello

    In my opinion, make you a huge mistake. Laptop with factory settings is perfect set up and all hardware components are working properly. OK, I understand you don't want to use some additional preinstalled software, but you must understand that you don't have to do it.

    I have absolutely the same option about it than you and the first thing I did with my Satellite P200D is to remove all the software, I don't want to have installed on the system.

    You can do the same thing. Go to the control panel > programs and features and then remove all the additional software. Later, install your favorite software and be happy with it.
    I do the same thing. Why install OS Vista own especially if you ve already paid for a Vista license.

    What do you think of this?

  • Satellite Pro L40 - wireless adapter does not work - Vista

    I recently had some problems with my laptop.
    A couple of weeks, I put in a disc of OpenSuse.
    It's not stable anything, but locked me out of my original Vista operating system.

    I reinstallled Vista Home Basic, but there are a few problems.
    Mainly, my wireless adapter does not work.

    When I flip the button to turn it on nothing happens and it is not recognized in Windows.
    I installed Atheros Driver, but still nothing happens, light is not yet.

    Any advice?

    Hello

    First check the device-> network adapters area manager
    You see the WLan card? Or the unknown device appears?

    If there is an unknown device, then the WLan driver has not been installed correctly or you tried to install a driver badly these two options are possible.

    Remember that your wireless network card? Maybe it was a Realtek WLan card?

    If it's a Realtek WLan card, try the WLan driver from the Realtek website and look for 802.11 g (RTL8187B) chip or you will simply check the page of the European driver Toshiba too the Realtek WLan driver also appeared on the Toshiba page

    What should I do? Thank you.

    Hello

    Method 1: I suggest that you do the startup repair using the Windows Vista installation disc and check if it works.

    If you have a Windows Vista installation disc, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disk, the option to repair your computer will not appear.

    a. Insert the installation disc.

    b. restart your computer.

    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.

    c. If prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

    Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

    d. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

    e. click on repair your computer.

    f. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

    g. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair.

    See: How can I fix a startup (startup)?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-I-fix-a-boot-startup-problem

    Method 2: If above method fails, then run the command chkdsk WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment) and check if it solves the problem:
