Portege R500 - Vista does not SP1 using windows update

I just got a new Portege R500.

Do not specify the information of Windows Vista Service Pack 1, so I guess that's not?
But the automatic windows update does not offer to install SP1.

What I have to do it manually? How?

The other question is: is it OK to do, or are there many problems with drivers after that.

Please help out me.

Hello

First update of Windows is always desirable and SP1 is really necessary, because it fixes many bugs in Vista.

One of the reasons why Windows Vista doesn't automatically update the SP1 version, is that SP1 can be installed.
Check if SP1 has been installed. To do this follow these steps:

1. Click Start, right-click computer and then click Properties.
2. Windows Vista SP1 is installed, you will see a reference to Windows Vista SP1 is displayed at the bottom of the Windows edition section

However, I found a useful document of Microsoft Knowledge that could help you to update SP1
[Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is not available for installation from Windows Update and is not offered by automatic updates | http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948343]

See you soon

  • Windows Vista does not start after Windows update

    I am running windows vista on a PC laptop toshiba l300.  He did an automatic update of windows and this morning when I turn it on it will not load.  It comes with a screen saying download of updates please do not turn off your computer.  then, he turns his car on and keeps recycling through the same thing.

    I tried loading in safe mode, but it does the same thing in that. I also tried selecting the option, the last load charge effective network via the F8 key but again that has not worked.    I have not all disks with the laptop, so I don't have a vista disc.

    I'm not very computer and have done everything I can think off.

    can someone point me in the right directioin.

    I working on my main pc at this time and did the updates of windows to be sure it's XP

    Janhsmn,

    If you do not want to install updates on your computer, you can select the "Hide" option and it will ignore them in the future and continue with other updates. Do not forget that the reason why the updates could be the cause of this problem would be because as a conflict with a third-party software. And most likely will not affect both your systems in the same way unless you have the same third party software installed on all your machines.

    To hide the update in Windows Vista, please follow the steps below.
    1. click on 'start '.
    2. Type "Windows Update" and press on "Enter"(on the keyboard) ".
    3. Select "Search for updates"
    4. Select "View available updates"
    5 right-click the update that is causing the problem and select "hide update"

    Hello

    Have you tested an external mouse on the laptop? It work?
    The touchpad is listed in Device Manager?

    Normally, you can enable or disable the touchpad through FN + F9. Did you check that?
    You may need to install the package of value added for this.

  • The cutting tool does not work after windows updates.

    I read answers to similar questions about the failure of the cutting tool.  I use the tool cutting regularly and I think it's a fantastic tool in Windows. I have Vista Ultimate and all my windows updates have managed: none were not installed correctly, and I did not install new programs or hardware.  It seems that Microsoft knows the snipping tool does not - why can't they simply provide an update patch to correct the problem, rather than make us do all the work.  I don't have to go through hoops of restorations etc to get something it seems work was broken by updates.  I'm about to go to a Mac.

    It worked for me! Thank you!

    In windows 7 the touchad does not work properly, which means I can't scroll pages by dragging my finger on the edges of the touchpad. It worked perfectly witn Vista and now it isn't. I have the 64 bit version.

    You have the most recent driver for the touchpad? Usually the Vista drivers also work on Windows 7.

    Step 1:

    I suggest you check in safe mode.

    Start your computer in safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Step 2:

    If you be able to start your computer in safe mode, I'd say make clean boot and check.

    Place the computer in a clean boot state, then check if it helps. You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • Acer Aspire 5720Z with Windows Vista does not start in Windows

    Hi, I had an Acer Aspire 5720Z who begins to give me the infamous error at startup, which brings you to the display of the Startup Repair tool.  When it ends, a pop-up window message saying "Startup can not repair this computer automatically" happens.  I tried all the options in the Windows Vista environment, but at the end he continues to display the same message and startup windows repair cycles over and over again.  And I'm unable to restore, because there is no restore point created.  However, I could get details of the problem and we hope that this information, someone here can direct me to what I do, since all the data of the disk are there, it's just that here I have a kind of corruption of the file to be replaced.  Here is the analytical error:

    I thought someone here would have developed an idea for you on this error to fix it now.

    You can try this:

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • Speco DVR8TL250 does not connect using Windows 7.

    I have a Speco DVR8TL250 that I can access it remotely using Windows XP and Windows Vista computers. I'm unable to access the recorder using Windows 7.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi dbad_dgood,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

    ·         Please provide us with the exact error message or the error code that you receive when you try to connect the 8TL250 DVR?

    ·         The device is getting detected in Device Manager?

    To check if the device is detected in Device Manager, do the following:

    i. click on start, type devmgmt.msc and then on enter.

    II. research the name of the device

    According to my research, the device is not compatible with Windows 7. You can check out the link below and check if the device is compatible with the version of the operating system installed on your computer: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

    You try to install the drivers in compatibility mode. Steps to follow:

    i. right click on the driver

    II. click Properties

    III. click on the Compatibility tab

    IV. Select run this program in compatibility mode and select windows vista

    Link for reference below: make older programs run in this version of Windows

    If the problem persists, you should contact the manufacturer of the driver, because there is no upgrade or patch for Windows 7.

    Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • Laptop HP - 15-r213ns: hotkeys (keys of wifi sound, brightness), does not work after windows update

    Hello

    I have a HP laptop - 15-r213ns (ENERGY STAR) with windows 8.1

    Last night, after an update of windows, the shortcut of the brightness (F2 and F3) volume (F7 and F8), wifi (F12) and keys all others have stopped working.  I can always change the brightness and volume using windows, but I can't do more using the keys.

    The function keys are working, as refresh F5 or F3 Browse. I noticed that before I had to press the FN key for this and now she does without the FN + Fx, so I guess that the update of windows must have changed something here.

    They used to work fine before the update. I reinstalled the display drivers (NVIDIA G-FORCE 820 - M) and looked for new drivers or update drivers using HP Support Assistant, but everything is up-to-date.

    I was looking for hot key factors in the page of HP drivers for my product but could not find any keyboard, drivers or software related shortcut keys.

    any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Marco

    Hi, Marco:

    The system of the event utility is supposed to get the Fn keys to work.

    Details:

    This package contains the HP System Event utility for the laptop models running a supported operating system. HP System Event Utility allows the special programming function keys.

    File name: sp70439.exe

    You can find this file in the Software - Solutions section of the driver for your model page.
