Reinstalled Vista, now need to reinstall drivers and utilities
I reinstalled windows vista after a reformat, how do I know if all my drivers and utilities are responsible
Unless you have used a recovery partition will not. You will need to reinstall them. Obviously if youre on it now and you're on the net, he installed the LAN drivers. Check the Device Manager, if nothing appears a? This means that it needs drivers

Replaced the hard drive, need help with drivers and utilities!
Hello
Yesterday, I replaced my old hard drive with a new WD, and I reinstalled Windows Vista. Everything goes fine until I jumped in the utilities and drivers (Resource CD) supplied with the laptop. I guess I thought that the CD all the work, would do to reinstall all the necessary drivers and utilities... Now I'm stuck with a laptop computer that cannot connect to the internet, and the screen is too big. I don't know there is more wrong with my laptop than meets the eye. On the CD of drivers & utilities there the list of drivers and some of them have check marks, others do not. I tried following some online course on which those who/what order to upload, but I don't even have some recommended drivers on the Dell.com site (specific to my Inpiron 1545 model)! I know that I could download them immediately the site, but I don't even have wifi to do.
In addition, I read the performance of a Dell Factory Image Restore and I tried it. When I get the black screen with no option, I have to click on "Repair computer" but the option is not available either... I thought that maybe it would be an easy way to restore my laptop (readers and all) to the original settings. Maybe the option is not there because my computer is practically empty, with nothing to restore? All I have on my laptop at the moment is Windows Vista 64 bits and drivers a couple that I don't know much.
Bit of help and advice would be great.

OT: Sony laptop Vaio question.

Now, most of my drivers and utilities VAIO is not compatible! Support for Sony is saying, direct installation Windows 8.1 will be loss the drivers and utilities and we cannot install drivers and utilities more!
The solution is that I have to install Windows 8 PRO and install and upgrade the sony vaio drivers and utilities. After that, I can do an upgrade to Windows 8.1 PRO.
So, the question is, I download the installer of Windows 8 PRO but, PRO 8.1 Windows key does not accept!

Thank you.

Hi Akhil,
Thank you for writing to us, we are happy to help Microsoft Community.
What is the model number of the Sony Vaio laptop?
I wish to inform you that the product key that is used for Windows 8.1 cannot be used for Windows 8.
If you upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 8, you will need the key to upgrade of Windows 8. The retail version of Windows 8.1 product key cannot be used to activate Windows 8.
However, the majority of drivers and utilities that are compatible with Windows 8 works correctly with Windows 8.1.
Please let us know the model number of the laptop, so that we can get the proper drivers and utilities from the laptop.
Forward to your response.

Drivers and utilities for Qosmio F20 running Vista
Hi, I had a Qosmio F20 (PQF20A) computer laptop running Windows Vista
None of the drivers and original utilities were installed, and none of the function buttons/keys work.
Some drivers, I was able to install through update (Device Manager) and Toshiba Support
I looked up support for public services and the only drivers/utils available are for * XP * ONLY
When I try to install the Modules or controls or any other Vista drivers/utilities it stops and says "TVALZ Driver Installation Failed" and then "driver blocked due to incompatibility, for more information, contact Toshiba... »
Can't find anything relevant on the Toshiba site. I looked towards the top of Toshiba in various regions for support...
There the drivers/Utils for Vista?
Help, please!Hello
Unfortunately, the Toshiba Vista tools or utilities for Qosmio F20 don t it.
As far as I know the Qosmio F20 series and the G20 have been designed and equipped only with the XP operating system and so Vista drivers were not released.You can try to search for some unique drivers on Internet sites s chip maker but features such as the control keys or the FN buttons will not work with Vista :(
Good bye

Alienware TactX KG900 & MG900 drivers and utilities update?
I'm looking everywhere for a software update for the Alienware TactX keyboard and mouse KG900 & MG900. Later I see available online at Dell is the same as the original disk I have since September 2009 v1.0.51.0.
Looks like Dell would provide software updated with more features or capacity with profiles more preloaded for games today or simply able to to make it more user-friendly. Its now 2011, and windows 7 64-bit is the norm these days.
We need a software update please.
sincerely

You can find all the drivers for the page of the European driver Toshiba Satellite M30.
But the M30 is a former series of notebook and that's why pilots have been moved to the archives.In the first option called product type, just chose Archive instead of the laptop.

Satellite Pro U500-10N drivers and utilities Toshiba Windows 7
Windows 7 has been on the market for at least a year. And I can't believe it, there are only * 4 * drivers to download to a Windows System 7 x 32 bit (for 64-bit system there is * 145 *). When you install this system on U500 some drivers and almost all the Toshiba Utilities disappeared... and there is no place where you can download it from...
Can you, team support, please do something about this issue? A lot of people would be extremely grateful for that.Kind regards

Hello
If you want to discuss with the team of assistance you should contact Toshiba hotline and explain the situation.
You are right. Win7 is long on the market, but it doesn t mean that laptop manufacturers are supported on both versions (32 and 64 bits) for all models of laptops.
Fact is that most old models of laptop computers come with Vista are supported for Win7 32 bit but all new laptops as your U500 are mainly supported for 64-bit version only.Global trends in computing, mobile computing and software development move forward and it is important to have systems always better and faster. This is the reason why all best sellers of cell phones offer more platforms with 64 bit OS only.
To be honest I put t think that Toshiba will provide support of 32-bit for U500.
I U500-1EX touchscreen and use original BONES I had with. -
I am running Vista now, what should I upgrade and how?
I had this computer for about 8 years, I think. I never upgraded to something else. Vista was already installed but I need to install Microsoft office 2013 and I know that it is not compatible with Vista, so how can I do to upgrade? Also, how can I back up my files to an external hard drive? I have some pictures I want to keep.
Hello
Before you spend money on your Vista machine:
Microsoft sells more than Windows 7, you must try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=20
Check if your specifications are compatible for Windows 7:
"Windows 7 system requirements"

_______________________________
Do the following before upgrade you to Windows 8.1.
Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8 drivers available for your model.
If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.
There is a lot of information in this first link from Microsoft:
Download and run the Windows Upgrade Assistant 8.1 of to see if your machine is compatible Windows 8.1 and read the update for Windows 8.1: FAQ here

Windows 10 is NOT a free upgrade from Vista; It's onlt free of Windows 7 and 8.1.

The easiest way to back up your Photos, etc., is to click with the right button on the folder > crushed cursor send to > have a USB Flash drive or a hard drive plugged > copy the files to that.
If you follow the Microsoft Vista backup process, you will have problems by copying them on later operating systems.

Tecra S2->; drivers and utilities for Vista?
Hello
Does anyone know if Toshiba intends to release drivers for the Tecra S2, is not so old and my model has more then enough grunt to run Vista, my only hesitation in the upgrade is not knowing if utilities such as power manager will work, or if they will all be upgraded.
Thank you!
The update/version of the Vista driver is a theme of Top10 here in the forum.
(check the other categories ;))I think Toshiba will first publish drivers for mobile phones capable of Vista with vista tab.
I m not sure about books another but I think Toshiba will release some drivers for laptops that are able to run VistaLet's be patient.
