  Hi, Russell:

  He has a Ralink WiFi card you find the parts list for your laptop.

  So, this is the driver you need for this card...

  This package contains the installation package driver for Ralink Wireless LAN to laptop models controllers that are running a supported operating system.

  File name: sp56942.exe

  HP wireless assistant software is not applicable to your model.  Your model uses the most recent software HP connection manager, which you may need to install in order to activate the wireless card so that the drivers can be installed.

  This package provides the connection manager HP for the notebook models and operating systems.

  File name: sp54630.exe

  The driver hotkey, you need is this one...

  This package contains the Quick Launch software HP, which allows the special function keys on the laptop to program models. For example, the software of HP Quick Launch allows users to press the Fn + ESC keys to view system information. This software works with supported operating systems.

  File name: sp56929.exe

  So that the brightness keys work, you must install the graphics driver first.

  This package provides the AMD graphics driver high definition (HD) and Catalyst Control Center for models of laptop computers that are running an operating system supported. For laptops equipped with switchable graphics modes, this package contains the drivers for the two graphics (GPU). Switchable graphics allow users to switch between a graphical power mode (normally used under the power of the battery) and a mode of graphics performance. If the video output high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.

• XPS 420 - HARD drive failed, performing a clean install of Vista on the new HARD drive.

  Hey everybody,

  My on my XPS 420 HARD drive failed and I'm trying to reinstall Vista using the disc that came with my machine back when I bought it.

  I bought a new WD10EZEXAZ (1 TB Serial ATA HDD), he rose in the same dwelling as my old HDD (ST3750630AS * Barracuda 7200.11*). I start the PC and goto Setup, it recognizes the HARD drive in the blue menu.

  Then I boot with the CD of Vista that came with my system. I proceed as indicated through the following url:

  Clean install of Vista

  After its copied files, expanded the files, installed features, updates installed... it goes to "Complete Installation" and throws an error message: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  I tried a few things I've seen posted on the internet, including trying to run msoobe.exe via command line. When I did, it allows me to Setup user... but finally I get sent to this message of error or another telling me I have to reinstall Windows.

  I read else where some hard disks may not compatible with the Dell disk provides with my OEM machine. If this is the case, can someone advise? I really didn't want to spend $100 one another on a Windows 7 disc, but I feel like this may be my only option... but even in this case, I'm not so sure this will work or the other.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated,

  Tony

  UPDATE *.
  Did some more research, I discovered my new drive HARD is an advanced HDD format... not sure if it has nothing to do with my problems (by www.wdc.com/advformat Vista should not need to perform the work before the OS being installed), but thought I would mention it.

  Thanks again for any help.

  ****************

  Seems that I found the solution to my problem.

  Problem has been fixed by going into the BIOS and change the Mode of Port SATA to IDE/native/AHCI native. After that, the installation worked without any problems. Seems that Windows Setup did not like the port mode is set to RAID.

  Just thought I would post back everybody incase has had the same problem.

• PC with Vista sp2 I can backup and reinstall on the new PC with Windows 7?

  I bought a new PC with Windows 7 and you want to back up my old PC running Windows Vista SP2. Can I do a total back up and reinstall without jeopardizing the Windows 7? Or y at - it a program that moves from programs for me, instead of a return to the top?

  Hello

  You don't give enough information:

  Read this about the legality of moving from an operating system:

  If the computer/laptop came with Windows Vista preinstalled operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key provided with your computer/laptop to the OEM license preinstalled and is not transferable.

  OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

  Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

  And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  ______________________________________________

  Years although it was licensed for retail sales of a clone of Vista that you want to move in all probability if boot not that this image contains drivers for the old Vista, not the most recent motherboard on Windows 7 computer.

  And programs need to be reinstalled from the original media.

  See you soon.

• I need to remove installed OEM Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and install XP. Help please!

  It is a new work computer, not my personal machine.  Our main piece of software, ACT! 2000, will not work on W7.  We bought the new law! 2010, but he does not play well with the rest of the desktop computers, server included.  I know that the best thing to do would be to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro, and then load Windows Virtual PC to run XP.  But because of $$$ and $$$ already spent on this new computer, upgrade to W7 Pro is not on the table right now.

  And am not extremely computer, but I get.  :)  I did a lot of reading on the erasure of Windows 7 & install XP, and I've seen a lot read on hardware/driver problems: ATA, AHCI and SATA configurations... now I'm just lost.

  Is there someone who can tell me, in terms of Joe 6-pack , how to proceed?

  Once, my new Dell Inspiron 560 came loaded with Windows 7 Home Edition, and I need to remove it completely and install Windows XP, I have the disc.

  Thanks a bunch!

  Unfortunately, Dell provides Windows XP drivers for this system, so any installation of Windows XP is not supprted by Dell andcan not work and even install

  To install winxp you need a retail version of Windows XP, you must then boot from winxp cd and perform a clean installation

• need to re - install < root windows > \system32\ntoskrnl.exe

  My computer does not load Windows. I use XP Professional Sp3 (I think). My drive is XP Professional SP2.

  When I try to boot from the cd, I finally get to a screen that gives me the Windows installation press options 1) enter or 2) to repair XP using the recovery console. Press r.

  No matter which option I choose, I get the message "implementation did not hard disk drives in your computer."

  I pressed F8 and used the "disable auto reboot" and received the message "Windows has not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \system32\ntoskrnl.exe please reinstall a copy of the above file"

  How can I do this?  Thank you, the Safi

  Shouldn't you have the following option under integrated peripherals:

  On Chip IDE - SATA Controller [SATA, RAID or off]

  You don't want RAID!

  You should be able to select SATA and then SAVE the changes that you exit the BIOS (sometimes people forget this step!).

  Not all mobos have the ability to disable sata ahci. The sata/raid controller driver is needed for windows recognize the drive sata hard. Having the pilot does not mean that you have to configure or use the raid features. RAID is simply two working as one of the hard drives. Most of the drivers manufacturer mobo that I take care of combine sata and raid drivers for the controller in a single package. Here is an example of a driver for Intel Matrix Storage Manager. It is a common driver needed for Windows to recognize a disk sata hard connected to a motherboard Intel. If the options as shown in the above post by Jose do not appear in the bios then install drivers, as I said. For this reason, Windows gives you the opportunity to press F6 to install the drivers before the implementation.

• Driver HP PSC 1317 wont install on windows 7 - please help

  Hi, I really hope that someone will be able to help me solve this problem. I tried for more than a week to try to install the drivers for this printer and nothing has worked!

  I am running windows 7 (64-bit).  I downloaded the driver from the HP website, I tried to install, uninstall, reinstall, I tried all the troubleshooting options (disable the start up programs, firewall, remove temporary files, etc.).  I tried to use windows update, which fails to install updates for the driver as well.  I tried windows update troubleshooting, HP print and scan doctor and everything else that I found online.  but nothing has worked.

  I tried to install the driver from the hp website and it installs everything other than the driver, if I try to install just the driver fails, I get the error message 'Fatal error' no code error with it and there is a check mark next to any other than the driver, which has a red x next to it.

  When windows update tries to install the printer when I connect the usb port of the printer to the computer it finds the driver, try installing and then only comes up with "unable to install the driver"

  another message, that I had on the numerous attempts to install is 'error 0x000003eb', but none of these options of troubleshooting the problem.

  Please someone is able to help me solve this problem?  its driving me crazy!  I just want to be able to print documents, im not bothered about scanning or something else

  Thank you

  Jodie

  Download/save the full software features of HP, then run the Setup and follow the instructions

• Satellite L655 - sound does not work on the new install of Windows 7 Pro x 64

  Howdy all,

  I bought a Newegg L655-S5111, which was on sale, put an SSD, and then installed a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit, I got from my current employer (I'm a computer scientist). I've updated to the latest revision of the BIOS (1.70), and I have all the updates installed Windows, all drivers installed, including the correct drivers Conexant HD Audio and ATI HDMI Audio. Unfortunately, the sound does not work. Sound works briefly during my first install of Windows 7, then I cut it up until I could get it set up with a helmet. When I disabled it, she had stopped working.

  This laptop is less than 3 weeks at this point, old and I get no audio on headphones or speakers, even if Windows displays clearly no problems with the drivers, they have the latest version on a new installation, and I can see the audio mixer game. The laptop built-in microphone captures sound as well. I think that's probably not a matter of the physical interconnection, but more likely a software problem, I just have trouble identifying where it is.

  I have also no related error message than any where in the case of newspapers.

  Post edited by: ADMIN

  Can you please do a test and install original recovery image Toshiba, that you got with your laptop on this new SSD, just to see if it will work with the original image.

  Recovery image contains all the necessary drivers and OS is perfectly configured so each piece of hardware in your laptop should work correctly.

  I saw a thread earlier about this and he had to do with a T61. I think as his associates? I have a T61 with windows 7 (pre-installed Lenovo) and the works of the OSD.

  I had my old T60 which had XP and I upgraded to the new installation of windows 7 (32-bit), I installed all updates recommended system and has gone to the lenovo Web site to get the shortcut keys OSD works so my volume keys can be displayed on the screen.

  And I press the button and nothing. I installed the latest version and previous versions (after unistalling, etc.) and still nothing.

  Anyone has an idea about that Lenovo must surely know about it? also must be people who does the same thing as me?

  
  

• Z500 hard drive failed, when the new bios disk inserted don't is not loading

  Out of the blue my z500 crashed and restart the hard drive was not recognized. I opened and made sure it is properly connected. Still nothing.

  I bought an ssd and inserted into the slot of the hard drive and when turned on it flashes the lenovo bios boot screen then instantly goes black. It flashes black then black and backlit constantly

  I removed the SSD and it loads the BIOS without a drive.

  I returned the ssd and got a replacement. The same problem reoccured.

  The ssd is approved to the z500 site crucial and fine as an external hard drive can be installed.

  The original hard drive makes a powered noticeable when rattle noise so I guess it was a normal failure.

  Any ideas? Any other information needed? I am a complete newbie to these forums and appreciate help from anyone.

  Try to install the ssd (of course power should be turned off before doing so). After the physical installation and place the back cover press the NOVO button. A menu should appear and select bios Setup to access the bios. If you can go into the bios put the bios configuration to the default values. Then set the PXE boot to disable. Save and exit.

  Note: You must start in a usb/dvd of windows installer since the ssd has nothing about it yet. Then may need to change some settings in bios inorder to do this.
