Moved an old (16-bit) software to XP, will not work.

We ran a spectrophotometer on a Windows 3.1 via a GPIB-CIIP/IIA card machine, but when the computer is dead we have found another one with the older card slot so we used ae try the GPIB-USB-B on a Windows XP computer. The Explorer of the GPIB Solutions can communicate with the instrument, but the software does not see the instrument. In the original file for the spectrophotometer software, it says to go to system.ini and add the device=c:\gpib-pcw\vdmad.386 line.

Because we no longer have this file we watched the Windows\System32 folder and found several gpib*.dll files. We tried gpib.dll, gpib - vdd.dll and gpib - 32.dl, instead of VDMAD.386 (we fixed the path name too) so far, but none of them worked. We also don't run the updatdos.exe successfully but saw no effect. We have a Win 98 machine that has a USB port, but we need a driver to run it. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I had the famous camera. The instrument is now running on the XP machine, but still doesn't work is not on the Windows 98 computer. I'll keep trying because the software starts the 98 machine and then crashes so I think I'm close here too. To rename the device in Windows 98, I could follow the assistance OR the models tab of device file. Windows XP I had to seek help on the Configuration utility to find the device model dialog box.

  • Portege M750 Win7 64 bit Wireless Manager (3G) will not work

    I can't TOSHIBA Wireless Manager (3G) to work in a new installation of Win 7 64 bit.

    I did a test installation of Windows 7 64 - bit on and old SATA hard drive and checked TOSHIBA Wireless Manager would work. He did.

    I then did a fresh install of Windows 7 64 - bit on a new Crucial C300 Real SSD 256Go.

    The new facility with the Crucial SSD is not very successful... The operation "stop and restart" does not - the closing not always power off completely and you must push the switch down to.

    Sometimes the SSD does not start - you enter the password of the BIOS but then nothing happens. Sometimes you turn off the power and remove the battery before as the startup disk.

    But the biggest problem is that the (3G) Wireless Manager will not work. The application opens and indicates that "died" - which it is impossible that I use WiFi to post this question.

    I tried to install the software Vodafone 3 G portal. It detects the presence of the 'mobile device' (SIM in housing) but then can not turn it on.

    I downloaded and installed all the latest drivers for the chip, the pilot 3G, 3G software, LAN driver, LAN software and all updates of Windows 7.

    I have the latest version of the BIOS (3.0) but this has not been updated by Toshiba since 11/04/09.

    I would point out that Diagnostic PC Toshiba tool does not recognize the installed 8 GB memory (but ccleaner):

    This indicates a BIOS problem?

    -don't

    points to a problem of firmware on the SSD drive (is it sandforce) torque to the incompatibility of BIOS of the SSD.

    I assume that all drivers installed etc were identical on the installation of the trial of HARD drive? so if this is the case it must be the SSD does not not with the BIOS correctly, so the other issues as well

  • malicious software removal tool will not work

    I think that I've been infected by malicious software. I tried to run malware bytes, but it kept becoming extinct and then saying my I don't have ' access permissions to ' this file or the path. Then I went to microsoft and download the malicious software removal tool, but just after he started sweeping, he disappeared as well. I registered a user who belongs to the Administrators group, so I know that's not the issue. I wonder if Malware prevents programs such as these as running and remove it? If so, how to do this? Please help quickly!

    Yes, the malware can do exactly what you described: stop a program being removed from malware and it is impossible to run it again.

    The problem is probably caused by a rootkit , which is very difficult, if not impossible to remove.  Someone with lots of experience of malware removal might be able to fix it, but the only solution is to back up your data files, reformat the drive and reinstall Windows.

    I wish I could give you better news.  :-(

  • Moving project between first CS5 and CS5.5 will not work... Help!

    If all goes well installed CS5.5 sparer dir and tried to import the CS5 project. Well he opened very fast but then he had trouble scouring the project. It seems that CS5.5 dislike some mov files. Maybe som codec problems? The windows monitor will be freezes or the display of 'media pending' forever. On some files mov, *.avi and SB it will allow scrubbing... but very slow. Rendering will not work either when it comes to some problem files, it will stop making and ending with the creation of crash. I tried to create a new empty project to 5.5 and just imported these "problem files", but then it works very well with the washing and rendering. There is no open problem the project in CS5.03, everything works perfectly there. So what I did? Yes, I backed up my c: drive and formatted, it... 28 hours later I installed everything nice and fresh with only the CS5.5 version on my drive. That worked better? N° !!! the same problem. After another 15 hours of trial and error, I got my "blessed of God" has registered C:disk. As far as I understand that this problem seems to be a problem with 5.5 and not my setup of the computer with codecs etc.? If there is someone out there who can help me?

  • Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Vista Ultimate 32-bit upgrade. Installation file will not work. The error is described below.

    The XPS 730 with Intel Q9450 computer yourself running Windows 7 64 bit? The details of performance show that it is capable of 64-bit. When I try to install Windows 7 pro 64-bit upgrade, the installer will not work. I get an error that reads:
    The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows that you are running.

    I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Everything that I read on Microsoft and elsewhere says that you can go from Vista 32 bit to an operating system Windows 7 64-bit as long as you do the clean install. I'm that far away since I can't even run the installation.
    Maybe nobody knows what could be the problem?

    Hi Hal K,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

    If you are currently running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can only perform an upgrade to another 32-bit version of Windows. Similarly, if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, you can perform an upgrade to another 64-bit Windows version.

    If you want to move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows, and vice versa, you will need to back up your files and then perform a custom of the version of Windows you want to install installation.

  • Backward compatible? Can I write software in 2015 SP1 and expect it to work well in 2013 SP1? What are the features will not work?

    I need to set up some labview on my current computer software and run it on another computer in another country in a month. I was told that the computer I will eventually run from abroad Labiew 2013 SP1. I don't have a Labview on my computer today and thought I would setup the same SP1 version ito 2013 compatibility. However, it seems that this is not an option. When I go to download products my options are 2012, 2012 SP1, SP1 for 2014, 2015 and 2015 SP1.

    So what's the best move here? Can I install 2015 SP1 and wait that everything works ok when I go abroad? I guess not. Why 2013 SP1 is not an option for me? Should I see if guys abroad can upgrade to the latest version? What happens if they can't?

    Thank you

    Trevor

    As others said, the best option is to get the same version. If for some reason you cannot really, I suggest you get an older version, because then you can write the code in a newer version and backsave, there are at least two issues that may bite you if you are not well aware of how they work:

    1. If you have used the new features, they will not work in the old code. What you get in fact depends on the specific feature you are using.
    2. When you backsave, I'm sure that LV is a hierarchy save, which means, if you have screws located in the external files that are not vi.lib, it will create copies and you might have a more difficult time sorting out the dependencies.

    This occurs if you are using an older version, because the most recent version will simply open it.

  • Portege R700 - Windows 7 32-bit - NETWORK adapter driver does not work.

    Hi all

    I rebuilt a Portege R700 with Windows 7 32-bit o/s. I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba site but could not get the only rider listed working card. It seems to install ok but will not work. If I try to 'put to date pilot' with Device Manager and point to the files expanded, he said that the required software is not found.

    Is there a driver that works and can someone tell me where it is please?

    Concerning

    This seems to be the controller of Intel AMT.
    You can download the driver form Intel page.

  • CD\DVD will not work. Vista Home premium, 64-bit. Message says: Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

    I downloaded the drivers needed from the Dell site and the burner will not work. The computer was again in March 2009. Not sure where the drivers should be located. I downloaded on: win\syswow64\drivers\afc.sys. I've looked everywhere and tried to find a dialog box offering the option "update drivers" for this device. Could not find a way to do except Dell and that doesn't seem to work. The 64-bit system has no 'Device Manager' that I can find. When I look at the properties of the burner, the link to "find a solution" is not highlighted.

    I have a controller wired xbox 360, not one of these pieces of plug. I put the USB controller and installed the device. However, it does not work. Xbox 360 Assecories status when I click on it says I have it has been changed or moved, and will not work. I have not touched.

  • How can I recover my old firefox after I replaced it, it told me a new will not work?

    I was on my AOL Homepage and was encouraged to be upgraded for increased security. Everything went well, but when I tried to open Firefox, I learned it wouldn't work. Usually, with this older system, I am notified when an upgrade will not work. I would have never taken the lead and replaced my old if I knew. Is it possible to recover my old Firefox?

    There are apps that I have on this old system that does not work on newer systems. (I have an Airbook updated but I like the big screen for some things). I found this on Google:

    Hello

    I put t know what phone you use, but many Toshiba notebook series are delivered and support similar hardware parts.
    You can simply try to test and install the drivers from different series.

    The new Toshiba Bluetooth stack supports Vista and you can install it on all the laptops Toshiba which supports the feature of BT.
    Sometimes, you will get the chip card driver LAN or compatible Sound on the site of manufacture of chips like Intel, realtek, etc.
