Main problems after upgrading from XP to Vista on Qosmio F20

I have recently upgraded from XP to Vista on my Qosmio F20 and having problems. It seems that I lost the ability to change screen resolutions, to adjust the volume, brightness, etc. Basically, I lost the laptop functions. I also tried updating the BIOS but get the following error message "BiOS update only is not supported OS - unsupported OS or service pack installed.»

This also makes very slow computer.

You now have a few questions, or you wrote just a report on your experience of Vista on Qosmio F20?

The fact is that Toshiba does not support Vista on this laptop model and thereby you will ever complete Vista of operation (including the Toshiba tools and utilities). For supported laptops, Toshiba offered special Vista supporting BIOS but for your laptop, this update of the BIOS does not exist.

Sorry! :(

    Hey Larry907

    Uninstall and reinstall the printer

    but 1st go to the website of the printer manufacturers and see if printer vista drivers are here for your printer model

    If you have vista drivers available for your printer model reinstall the printer

    If there are no vista drivers, it may be time to upgrade your printer

    consult the manufacturer of the printer

  • Several problems after upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8

    Updated for win7 to win 8.   The printer KODAK ESP 3.2 stopped working.   Then, there was a problem with my graphic card Radeon X 1650 SE started giving me problems.   Windows 8 said that the catalyst library program was not compatible with windows 8, and when I tried to update, the update stopped at halfway.

    I have not yet activated windows 8 because I could go back to win 7 and if I go even once, I don't want windows to refuse my serial No.   Anyone had similar problems?

    OT: Windows 8

    Hi victor,

    When you upgrade printer KODAK ESP 3.2 Windows 7 to Windows 8, you need to update the printer drivers. I suggest you to download and install the drivers from the following link:
    http://support.en.kodak.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/36460/selected/true

    For problems with the graphics card Radeon X 1650 SE, I suggest you to download and install the drivers from the following link by selecting the appropriate drop down list model number. http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download

    Alternatively, you can try to install the Catalyst Media Center program in compatibility and see if that helps.

    Make the programs more compatible with this version of Windows
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/older-programs-compatible-version-Windows

    I hope this helps. Let us know if you have other problems with Windows in the future.

  • Latitude E5520 Audio problems after upgrade to win 10

    I have audio problems after upgrade to win 10 64-bit.

    Dell Latitude E5520 IDT 92HDxxx HD Audio
    Hardware ID:
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_111D & DEV_76E7 & SUBSYS_1028049A & REV_1001
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_111D & DEV_76E7 & SUBSYS_1028049A

    (1) if I use the built-in driver to Win 10 ("high definition Audio Device") I hear speakers/headphones and switching between the speakers and the works of helmet very well but my laptop computer microphone does not work ("not connected").

    (2) if I use the latest Dell driver (IDT 92HDxxx HD Audio Driver) I hear initially via speakers, but as soon as I plug in headphones I can't switch back to the speakers (i.e. switching between the speakers and the headphones does not work) and my laptop computer microphone works.

    I would be happy to provide more information and help to debug.

    To a Microsoft Community Forum, I received the following reply from Rob Brown - Microsoft MVP:

    Hi, John. It's quite nervous of a member of the MS forum say that Dell is responsible to operate Windows. It wasn't Dell but MS who claims that Win10 has most of the necessary drivers and if not then the drivers Win7 and Win8.1 would work.

    johnsdagg
    I was hoping that maybe Dell could find in the goodness of their hearts to a updated driver IDT 92HDxxx... pretty please?

    I doubt that it is possible for two reasons. Dell went from IDT Realtek as the audio seller so probably not more a a contract with IDT, if IDT even exist anymore. A year ago IDT was acquired by another company. I do not know its current status, but it is sure that the acquiring company will not be upgrading old software IDT. Reference Dell itself does not write the audio drivers. Even when IDT was the seller I believe that Win7 drivers are the final versions - no version 8 or 8.1 I think.

    johnsdagg
    If I use the built-in driver to Win 10 ("high definition Audio Device") I hear speakers/headphones and switching between the speakers and the works of helmet very well but my laptop computer microphone does not work ("not connected").

    The native Windows audio driver can't stand struggling external mic. It is a MS 'known problem '. MS must implement a decision-making support, but there is no indication that it will be. Meanwhile, you have two workaround solutions. You can switch backwards between the natives and the IDT drivers. At some point Win10 could leave the IDT driver works correctly. Or get an outlet cheap usb audio to the microphone. Struggling running out-audio driver usb Windows native usb and so dependent no driver IDT.

  • Windows install-"error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name"; After upgrading from Vista to Windows 7, cannot load new software. ____

    After an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7, everything on the system seemed to work properly. up to what I tried to re - install everything deleted software or install new software.  As soon as Windows Installer starts the following error message appears: "error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name.

    If this could have something to do with the new pads MSFT security permissions on folders (with padlock) during a upgrade as well as related hidden junctions by compared to the user by the system?

    I tried to install the update system of Lenovo and MSFT Windows Installer Clean Up clean in the hope that the software would help alleviate my problems. See below the link on advice from MSFT on the same error.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/%2Fkb%2F328162

    Unfortunately, I cannot even load the previously recommended THAT MSFT software to solve this error.  I also tried to install the software as 'Run as Administrator' and in 'Safe Mode '.  Even if I could not load the software recommended to MSFT, I was able to install iTunes to Apple through Apple Software Update, I guess, that they do not use Windows Installer.

    With the new structure of junction there is several files or links to the same folder across file system, if it is a folder authorization number which specific files/links are I need to remove restrictions?

    Any help would be appreciated, if not I'll have to do a clean install and individually reinstall each piece of software... Thank you.

    I think I found the solution for this point, because I have just encountered the same problem in our environment and here's what I did to solve it:

    -Create a higher level permissions at the root of the folder redirection (for example \\servername\mydocredirfolder): grant the Group authenticated users the following permissions and apply it to "this folder only" ALLOW: list folders/read data, reading, reading attributes, read extended attributes, create files / add data

    I think the MSI is trying to read the free space on the disk on the server, but it cannot because it tries to access the folder where your my documents redirection is sitting.

    Good luck!

  • Various services not loading after upgrade from Vista Home Premium to SP2

    I searched the forums for solutions to this problem for several days, but nothing helped. I first noticed the problem after an attempted upgrade to SP2, when the upgrade failed Mid - install and restored automatically to the previous pack service, it seems that it does not restore things to their good working condition. On the one hand, the audio service no longer works, despite attempts to start in services.msc. I am also unable to check the dependencies of this service. Second, the network in the taskbar icon indicates that the connection status is unknown, despite the fact that I can not connect and this post. Thirdly, arranging complains that it has stopped working.
    I tried several fixes, like uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, running virus scans and replacement of dll files download, but nothing has changed. I also tried the sfc/scannow command. to identify the root cause, but can not start repair services. Restore to the last know good configuration was my last attempt to win back a system that works, but this service is also blocked, complaining that the volume shadow copy service is not functional (even if I can throw in services). All previous changes have been made using administrator privileges.
    Does anyone have any suggestions before you reinstall the operating system? (ASUS laptop refurbished w/o a DVD of vista) Would be very grateful if you can provide help on this

    Thank you!

  • TFncKy.exe problem after upgrade to XP SP3 on Satellite A200

    Hello

    After upgrade of XP SP3, I have problem with TFncky.

    _System_:
    A200/PSAE7
    -XP Pro (2 x with OS selector, 1 OS XP XP main, 2nd XP for games)

    _Problem_:
    After booting XP from my main XP installation I always get an error message pop up stating that there is no prob with TFncKy and TFncKy should be stopped. As "signature of the problem" I get the following:

    + AppName: tfncky.exe AppVer: 3.22.0.0 ModName: ntdll.dll +.
    + ModVer: 5.1.2600.5512 Offset: 00012ace +.

    With one of the following keys on keyboard always results in above described error pop up but key are functional:
    WinLogo, DEL, HOME, PGUP /-DN, END, right SHIFT, FN + keys F etc.

    My second installation of XP (Lite for games) short smooth after SP3 upgrade: no error TFncKy error message.

    As my second XP runs without any problems after SP3 I'm not sure if the proplem is related with + tfncky.exe + or + ntdll.dll +.

    BTW:
    What driver package includes "tfncky.exe? Toshiba controls?

    Thanks in advance for any information or advice for this problem!

    Best regards
    Andreas

    Hello

    the problem was already discussed in another thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=18082

    The last message was probably the solution for the whole of the case. The mentioned user that "TfncKy.exe" belongs to the Toshiba Hotkey utility that only needs to be removed and reinstalled for this problem.

    In addition, it would be wise to check the registry with CCleaner for example before you reinstall the Hotkey utility.

    See you soon

    1st issue is the battery. Already before the upgrade to iOS 9.3.2 since iOS 9.3.1 my battery iphone 6 s + last latency time approximately 40 hours. Now after the upgrade to iOS 9.3.2,and it last only 15 hours. I noticed that the battery went from 100% to 60% in 8 hours without using it. I change all the settings after upgrade.

    2nd question is Siri Spotlight search Suggestion. I see more suggestion of Siri (recent call log and recent applications) in the Spotlight search. I also noticed that, to start the Spotlight search, I need to get to the bottom of the home screen. Previously on iOS 9.3.1 when I push upwards, search Spotlight is cancelled and return to the home screen. Now in iOS 9.3.2,and it no longer works.

    I also-hard reset by pressing Start button / stop and the "home" button together until I see the apple logo. Who will not help too.

    Have you checked the battery in use/settings/battery? All apps using the battery more than usual?
