Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

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 - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it 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 the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
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 AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.

Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
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.

How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
get new manually if you wish.

===========================================

Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
first.

    How can I keep the Macbook Pro closed on a stand?   without opening it to activate the market every time I use it?

    Yes, you can continue to use your MBP as long as an external monitor, keyboard, mouse/trackpad are connected.  No problem at all.  Use it as usual.  A lot of use do this every day.  LPX will be fine.  Just be sure to save your work before you leave, before switch to "standby" mode.

  • Open indicator point rest under Safari, after closing of

    So, I just got a MacBook Pro Friday, and I was in love.  I've never owned a Mac before, but I seem to have a small problem which is a bit annoying.  Whenever I shut Safari through the upper left red 'x' button, the open light is still showing on the dock.  It has been like this since I bought it.  Whenever I have secondary click Safari logo and press "Exit" from there, the open point indicator disappears.   When I close Safari, which dot rest as usual and when I secondary click Safari, and then click "Show all windows", there is an invisible window thing, it seems, and you can see absolutely nothing.  No way to get out of it or do something with it, unless you secondary click on Safari on the dock and click "exit".  It's just me angry a little bit, and I'm not sure what to do about it.

    On Mac OS X, you can keep an application running even after you close all windows. That's what you're observing: you closed the window but firor leaves the app.

    Because it's faster to open the following file, for example, but it is not really a question of a method be better than the other. Two operating systems are just different.

  • Mac Air drains almost zero during the night when the laptop is closed.

    In the morning a few last that I was wake up an empty battery and I were not able to find a reason why. For example, last night, I have to close to 33% and earlier this morning it is 2%. My laptop used may use one/zero to 100 during the night, so I don't know what it is.

    The laptop isn't a deal and is closing completely. During the closure, it is either not sleep or something it is waking up. I looked at the activity monitor and nothing takes too much energy (but something could stay while it is supposed to sleep, but I don't know if there is a way to check that).

    I'll leave it open tonight and just push sleep in the menu apple tonight and see how it works. Even if it works, I wish I could just shut up because this is supposed to be able to do.

    Also, I recently downloaded Skype plugin and it's, it's the only change I made in the time this problem started, which may have something to do with it.

  • What is the setting for Thunderbird to quit smoking looking for emails from a closed account, but leave the old mails in Thunderbird?

    I closed an e-mail account, but don't want the messages in the Inbox to 'leave' Thunderbird until I have a chance to sort through them.

    I suggest you take Thunderbird into offline mode and access your messages moved. Since you have already cancelled the account if it syncs with the server your messages may disappear. That's why you do this BEFORE you cancel your service with the provider.
    Do not remove the account from Thunderbird before moving into local folders or they will disappear with the account.

  • When I click to open thunderbird but the e-mail window does not appear until the icon shows the app closed, how to fix this?

    To start thunderbird, I click on the quick start on my toolbar icon, it highlights that if beginner, then a few seconds later, returns to the closed state. No e-mail window never appears on the screen. When I check the Task Manager, thunderbird does not appear in the list of running applications, but one or two processes show running on the Details tab (one first process by clicking on the icon, and then another if I right click and try to open one of the windows in option). I am running Windows 8.1. It worked well earlier in the day, so I have no idea what happened past. Restart the PC does not help the issue. How can I get the windows thunderbird appears on the screen again? If I can't, please send the instructions to backup all the associated email and address profile information so I did not lose anything... then uninstall and reinstall thunderbird and restore all the info related to my current profile. Thank you.

    Thanks for the reply... still not sure what happened, but I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling bird t. Everything is back to normal after that. So your solution can work, but I don't have the chance to try it. My solution, but is not ideal, was effective and the problem was solved.

  • Why my firefox all the closing hours?

    BP-56e95474-e62a-457a-B445-3903f2151110

    Could you describe the problem a little more in detail? The crash report said that there is a 'blocking' in the version of the Flash plugin. A Firefox also closed completely?

    The crash report has different extensions enabled (Gmail, Lightshot, Bugzilla Tweaks warning system) from the list in your post (see Question details > more details of the system). That looks good to you?

    You want to share other incident reports to see if they have cast additional light on the problem?

    It is a standard orientation which addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

    (1) If you have any recorders/downloaders who interact with Flash media to ensure that they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

    (2) disable hardware acceleration in Flash: right click on the media in the drive and click on settings, then the first mini tab and uncheck the box to use hardware acceleration.

    More information in this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

    (3) turn off mode protected (Windows Vista and later)

    The functionality of the safe_mode of the Flash player plugin has security benefits, but there seem to be some compatibility issues on some systems. You can disable it using the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, find 'Shockwave Flash' and click on the link for more. Then uncheck the box for "Enable Adobe Flash protected mode" and try it for a day to see if that helps you.
