  • Installed Windows 8 and all drivers; unknown device

    I always have an unknown device in Device Manager:

    ACPI\VEN_LEN & DEV_0078

    I have the latest version of the bios 2.02.

    Does anyone knows how to fix this?

    Thanks for your suggestion. I initially thought the same thing and reinstalled the driver for power management, but the unknown device is still there. It's actually the Intel Management Engine Interface 8.1 and Serial Over LAN (SOL) Driver for Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit) - ThinkPad I forgot to install.

    Hello Edtannjr,

    Thank you for your message.  Remember that the operating system itself takes place and many OEM systems contains a recovery partition which can take up to a space as well.

  • If I update to windows 8.1 through my local account, all my files and all my information are saved?

    I have windows 8 on my desktop, I do not use a Microsoft account to connect to it, I use a local account. If I update to windows 8.1 all my files and all my information stored? and I will be able to connect to my local account without losing any of my information, such as files and app?

    Original title: I have a Local account on windows 8.

    Yes, absolutely.  This 8.1 update is really pretty as a Service Pack or set of updates.

    The only thing I can think of that can only be an impact for you, it's to the point 8.1 of Windows, you cannot use SkyDrive (now called OneDrive) unless you use a Microsoft Account on your profile.  In other words, you can not just use 'on the side '.  That could be a deal breaker if you rely on OneDrive to store all your files and settings.  But if you are not using OneDrive today, then it don't you impact at all.

    Is it possible to recover my windows vista? I tried to install windows 7 and he shot his request now a windows key. any suggestions?

    Hey BH32009

    Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send vista recovery discs

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F10 or F11 or Alt + F10, 0 at startup to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    Save all data, because it will be lost, do the above

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • I installed windows 7 and the desktop icons and bar tasks are enormous

    Original title: Windows 7

    I installed windows 7 and the desktop icons and bar tasks are enormous, go to Web pages, I have to use the scrollbar at the bottom of page to see the other half of the page - he said could also be a driver problem, but don't know what I'm looking for - someone can help?

    Hello

    Yes, well part of the problem from the point of view of Dell is the only "acceptable" operating system for the Office of series 4600 XP. So they have no drivers 'official' for any function of Windows 7!

    But first I need more information on the video card. Try this (on the Dell site): 4600 system is supplied either with the built-in car video or a dedicated real card video.  You should know that you got.  Right-click of your mouse on the desktop, click on Properties in the next area, you see.  This will bring you into the display properties.  Now click on settings at the top right of this next area, click Next on the advance .  Now, click on the adapter on the top.  Just below the upper on this last box, you will see your listed video adapter.

    You will need this information, regardless of where you get help. My best recommendation is that you go to the community of Dell and after a question here. Someone may have already found one, but there is nothing official since the operating system is not officially supported.

    I'm sorry, there is nothing more I can do.

    Kind regards

  • I installed windows 7 and now my bluerayburner does even appear quite Similarly in Mgr. device!

    Hi, I installed windows 7 and now my Blu - ray drive does not even appear not at all, even in the device mgr. When I put it in a disk begins to spin and it stops, but it does not even acknowledge at all that there a burner.

    [Moved from comments]

    Hi Radlfly,

    I see that you have some problems with the burner blu - ray on Windows 7. I'll help you with this problem.

    1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    2. What is the brand and model of the blu - ray player?

    3. have you made changes on the computer recently?

    4 is the issue confined to this hard drive?

    I want you to know that Blu - Ray is a patented technology, so need the codec appropriate to buy and this is why we cannot include it in our operating system.

    To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.

    Hello

    1. you try to perform a new installation of Windows 7?

    2. where did you buy the Windows 7 DVD?

    This particular message occurs generally if you try to perform an upgrade on the spot of a recovery disc or installation support OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) that contains a custom defined configuration and can't stand not running an upgrade installation.

    The message means that you probably need to start using the installation media. You can also contact the manufacturer of your computer to determine the type of installation media that you have and to confirm what options are available when booting from the disc.

    Here are some links that provide additional information about the installation of Windows 7:
