• My solution for No Audio - drivers Conexant and Windows 7 x 64

  My son and I have the laptop L2000 comes with 32 bit XP and used the audio Conexant chipset. I had been using a SB Audigy PCMCIA card so I don't know when the Audio is really off. However, he noticed when I upgraded his PC. I went through different forums looking for 64-bit Windows 7 for Conexant audio drivers but nothing helped. Microsoft and Conexant both said that HP should provide the drivers. By the way HP, the Conexant site says that they provide no drivers, although they make the chipsets 'at the request of the OEM." Another post said that HP will not have to provide these drivers for Windows 7. The HP solution for my model and Windows 7 has been the "HP Software Advisor" who was 67 MB and totally unnecessary. It seems that it is a very common problem. In any case, here's what you do:

  First of all, you need 2 files that come quite ironically HP, they are SP35558.exe and SP35558.cva they contain drivers for Vista x 64 Conexant. (Later, I found the 32-bit drivers and the procedure should be very similar, except that the files are SP34789.exe and SP34789.cva). Type the following command in your browser address bar ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/ to half way down you will find the subdirectory with these files. Just right click on them and save it on your desktop.

  Double-click on SP35558.cva and tell Windows to use Notepad to open it. Scroll to halfway down to "[Operating Systems]" and after 'WV64UL = OEM' insert:
  W764HB = OEM
  W764HP = OEM
  W764PR = OEM
  W764UL = OEM

  (For systems 32-bit using W732HB = OEM, etc.).

  I then went up to about 10 lines "[system information]" and added

  SysId3 = 0 x 3091
  SysName3 = HP Pavilion ze2000 series
  SysId4 = 0 x 3096
  SysName4 = Compaq presario M2000 series
  SysId5 = 0 x 3097
  SysName5 = series Compaq Presario M2000
  SysId6 = 0 x 3097
  SysName6 = series HP Special Edition L2000
  SysId7 = 0 x 3093
  SysName7 = series Compaq Presario M2000
  SysId8 = 0 x 3093
  SysName8 = series HP Special Edition L2000

  I got this information from another cva file on my PC to C; / / swsetup, this is the directory where HP updates by default.

  After modding the cva file, I taped C; / swsetup/sp35558 /.

  Then, I run the SP35558.exe file. He failed the first time, I missed a line in my cva file. However, I then manually installed the Conexant drivers as follows and voila I had sound, beautiful crisp clear sound.

  "" In the Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under the heading 'Other' and choose 'update driver' then ' Browse your PC "and"choose from a list. Select "Audio, audio and game controllers", and then Conexant 'drive '. Navigate to C:/swsetup/sp35558/and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (don't forget 64-bit). Now click 'OK' and ignore all the warnings on the incompatibility, WHQL, etc.. Give her lots of time, you might think, you are in a loop, but you're not. Congratulations, you've completed.

  I thought that to recompile my answer and then mark this thread as resolved since it was not a post about a problem, but rather how I solved a very common problem that can be beneficial to others.

  After modding the cva file, I taped C; / swsetup/sp35558 /.

  Then I ran the SP35558.exe file and voila I had sound, beautiful crisp clear sound.

  The use of the CAL file is to streamline the installation of the driver and that's kind of cool if it works. If you can't find it, you don't succeed the first time, or you don't want to not bother with modding anything, don't worry, the installation manual will work for sure.

  Run sp35558.exe to extract all and let write off. Then go to Device Manager and update driver manually as follows:

  In Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under the heading "Other" and choose "update driver" and then "Browse PC" and "choose from a list. Select ' Audio, audio and game controllers', then 'Conexant', then 'drive '. Navigate to C:/swsetup/sp35558/and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (don't forget 64-bit). Now click 'OK' and ignore all the warnings on the incompatibility, WHQL, etc.. Give her lots of time, you might think, you are in a loop, but you're not. Congratulations, you've completed.

  I hope this helps.

• Model and options not available using VMware Infrastructure Client of cloning

  Hello, yesterday I posted in the wrong place. The administrator sets and I got a resolution of a few posters. Thank you. I have ESX 3.5 stable running on my HP Server. I also managed to install a virtual machine to Windows 2003 server and installed the VMware tools on this instance. I am so very happy. I added a second virtual machine and instead of executing Setup from a CD, I wanted to work with a model or a clone. While using the client VMWare says that I should be able to clone a virtual machine, or make a model, I don't have the option. In reading, it seems that I need Virtual Server Client. Is this correct? I'm downloading the client I think, but also wondered if this client has been designed to replace my VMWare Client on my workstation? It runs on windows XP? Or I have to build another server? My hat is off all who were able to become experts. Although the idea sounds simple enough, trying to get my head around it proved to be one of the most difficult software that I had to learn on my own. Thanks in advance for any help or pointers. Regards, Mark

  models and cloning are characteristic of vCenter.  It is a separate download, but also the price.  You will use the VIC to access your vCenter server.  The vCenter Server would be hosted on a Windows operating system.

  You can download an evaluation version which is good for 60 days.

• HP 15-AF006AX: need drivers for 15-AF006AX for Windows 7 and Windows 8 HP model

  Hello

  I recently bought two units of 15-AF006AX HP HP model and I installed Windows 7 on a laptop computer, & Windows 8 in another laptop, but do not want to upgrade to Windows 10.

  I tried to find the drivers, but it is not clearly mentioned that the drivers are for what operating system:

  http://support.HP.com/in-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-15-notebook-PC-series/7771410/model/8524986#Z7_30...

  In the details section of all drivers, it is mentioned that "the pilot is for supported operating system", but the OS is nowhere specified. I've seen lots of reviews for this model of laptop that drivers available for this model to the HP Web site are for Windows 10 & with these drivers, the laptop does not its 100% if the OS is not Windows 10.

  Please someone share me the links where I can get the drivers for this model for two OS - Windows 7 and Windows 8.

  (I guess that there are separate drivers for Win 7 and Win 8)

  Thanks in advance!

  @ashu5577: you need to look more closely at the drivers and software page.

  Just below the image of the laptop, there is a line, with a light blue background, that says "your operating system: Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Windows 8.1 and offshore at the right end of this line, the word CHANGE.»

  It shows Win8.1 for me because I am running 8.1; I'm running Win10, it would show Win10.

  You change the operating system by clicking on CHANGE and change the OS selection menu drop-down.

  Hi KB,

  Try to set up the two devices in same vlan first and test your strategies.

  Just add vlan switch with number 10 or whatever it is and connected ports or the virtual card on vlan 10 for connectivity.

  It could be that useful...

• PowerCli script to generate the report for the VM and ESXi model

  Hello

  I'm trying to generate a report for the virtual machines to a domain controller that includes the operating system, Cluster and host of brand and model of ESXi, but for some reason any the ESXi info does not come through. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Get-data center 'TEST ' |

  Get - vm |

  WHERE-object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"} |

  Select Name, @{N = "OS"; e = {$_.}} Extensiondata.Guest.GuestFullName}},

  @{N = "Cluster"; E={$_. VMHost.Parent}},

  @{N = 'Esxi model'; E = {Get-VMHost - VM $_.} VM | {{Select model}}

  The virtual machine has the properties of the host.  For your information "Model ESXi" use $_. VMhost.Model, $_ is the current information for pipeline for the virtual machine.  You did for the section "cluster".

• Windows 2008 R2 NIC disconnected when converting from a model and started using workflow start-vm in VCO

  Hello

  Have a very strange problem. I wanted to apply patches using a VCO on my model R2 2012 Windows workflow and Windows 2008 R2 models. My model of Windows 2008 R2 when converted and started by the workflow VCO does NOT get an ip address. Yet, when I manually turn on the model of Windows 2008 R2 after be converted manually, it gets an ip address immediately. So weird.  There is no problem with 2012 Windows, it works very well. NOTE: The workflow that starts the virtual machine only turns on (and is built in the workflow built by vmware) Finally, today I built a new model and has the same problem. NIC is VMXNET3 and problem seems of course specific OS, has anyone seen this before?

  Thank you

• Cloning and cloning to the model

  1. on the live server cloning what happens to the data that are written at the same time?

  2. is it safe clone all servers or not, SQL, Exchange for example?

  3. based on the responses to the numbers 1 and 2, all different Clone model?

  I have not live cloned a VM but I guess he's going out of the same technology that backups use which is to create a snapshot and it clone the virtual machine in the State when the snapshot occurs, all written data after the snapshot will stay on the virtual machine but won't go to the cloned virtual machine.   With regard to cloning all types of servers, I wouldn't like exchange or SQL.  There might be a use for it, but I don't see anything useful in cloning an exchange server.  The majority of our models and cloning is base installs operating systems and our citrix presentation servers when we need to get a new server.

  The model basically just cloning clones of the virtual machine, and then it converts it into a model so you can deploy them.

• Qosmio G40 - webcam and windows live messenger

  Well I've had this problem before and was solved with the installation of Service Pack 1. Well now it comes back to haunt me again! Windows live messenger does not register the webcam. The cam works and I am registered in the control panel etc. It is only on live messenger it does not...

  As described above, I have a Qosmio G40 with Windows Vista Ultimate and windows live messenger.

  Live messenger is set to allow phone calls and Messenger live in general - but there is no exceptions for webcam in the Security Panel?

  Looks quite simply that the cam is not lit - I have a black screen with static...

  Any ideas to fix this?

  * Download driver Chicony Webcam drivers from Toshiba Web site section was updated. If you can't find an updated driver, try a new driver of another model of Toshiba.
  * Install the Service Pack 1 of Vista, or Vista Hotfix KB934374: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374 (KB934374 is included in SP1)
  * Update your e-mail software (MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc...)
  * If you have another program that can use the webcam (e.g. Skype), make sure that they are completely closed and not, sitting in the system tray.
  * Try to close the bar Assistant camera on the left side of the office.
  * To stop the Camera Assistant software from running at startup, run Regedit and delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Camera Assistant Software".

• Using WHS and Windows 7 on the same machine.

  I searched and discovered that WHS is running on Vsphere, but this

  my situation and what I was wondering. I just bought these components:

  GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3P

  Intel Core i7-860

  G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4 GB model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL

  ASUS EAH4350 SILENT/DI/512MD2 (LP) Radeon HD 4350

  LG Black 8 X BD - ROM 16 X DVD-ROM - model CH08LS10

  Now I would like to run WHS on a virtual image and Windows 7 on

  another. I will be ripping my blu - ray and DVD and I have plan of encoding

  paste them into a mastroska or mp4 file. If I store the files on the WHS image,

  There will be problems, their diffusion to the image of Windows 7 or any other

  another computer on the network?

  Now, I know that the realtek cards are not taken in charge, is there a custom

  d 8111, if not if I buy a new network card. I'll be able to

  create a raid-5 on this forum and have whs recognize it? Can also

  use multiple monitors in vsphere? I also wanted to install vsphere

  on a USB key, which will affect in anyway?

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello, yes you can easily run WHS and Win7 on a same machine, but...

  I'm not sure that ESXi is the hypervisor desired for this project.  With ESXi, you can access ANY virtual machine console directly - all that the local display is the shell for ESXi very plain text mode.  There is the possibility to cross a second adapter to a virtual machine using vmDirectPath I guess, but there's always the keyboard and mouse.  Essentially, any race VM services network (only), or that the RDP access or other.

  After what has been said, you could however plan to run Win7 host operating system (such as the computer is essentially just a PC Win7), and then to run WHS as a virtual machine in Virtual PC or vmware Workstation.

  Anyway you'd probably want to 8 GB of RAM in the box.  Another issue is the affirmation of disc - is one of the most beautiful features of WHS Drive Extender, then you probably want to either assign virtually complete drives individually.  Balancing OF can create a good amount of disk IO when it runs every hour and could easily bog down the host if it executes all of the same SATA drive.

  HTH
