Tecra M7: Upgrading to Vista SP1 of XP - what drivers/utilities to use?

Similar Questions

• Are you afraid to upgrade to Vista Sp1 with peripheral Sigmatel audio? Why...! ?

  Hello.

  I have an Ispiron 6400 with the 9200 "lucky" Sigmatel audio device.

  A little review:

  Device driver SigmaTel is a problem with Vista SP1, and you cannot download it from Windows update.

  Windows Update suggests the IDT High definition audio installation which should replace the Sigmatel driver but causes an unexpected error = no audio device installed, RIGHT!

  But now, you can download Vista SP1... GREAT!

  But first I decided to remove the IDT instrument, but to do this I need to delete all Sigmatel applications as IDT pilot install itself on and in the old software so I reinstall the Sigmatel driver form Dell site (R147073).

  Audio device is now works well but... Oh miracle... now after this little joke Windows Vista sp1 is available in windows update...

  So make the choice for me:

  (1) "now" the driver is compatible with windows vista sp1 and I should update

  (2) someone suggest installing the Sigmatel R147075 driver but I would like evidence that is not designed for the Inspiron system and for example it does not recognize SPDIF and he sees two different microphone that does not exist however, it is compatible SP1 and I should update

  (3) I probably found a bug in the windows vista update, and now he thinks that I don't have a Sigmatel device and I shouldn't update.

  (4) I'm afraid

  Dell, please you are ready with the driver for your new laptop, my laptop support... I bought it 1 year ago... and it's always covered... Your support is excellent, why change? Give to use precise indication...

  PS... Download driver IDT is currently not available from windows update... funny, isn't it? It's like Office genuine advantage... present last week and after he disappeared... I'm afraid

  Then I restarted and I got to a page where windows told me that my computer is not able to be marketed with success because of the recent changes I made.

  I did an upgrade from the night before, where I update the OFFICE GENIOUS sthsth (sorry, but I forgot the name). I need to upgrade this thing in order to be able to upgrade to SP2 (complicated huh? lol)

• Error while trying to upgrade to Vista SP1

  Well, I know this is an old topic with lots of KB articles, but I couldn't find anything to get my installation to work. For some reason any automatic updates offered never upgrade when it is released - this may have been due to my Dell audio player that I've changed since. I have downloaded the manual installation of Microsoft version and ran the installation. The green bar got all the way to the end before crashing with an internal error.

  Most of the articles suggest that I have download the update tool system which I did and also ran. He got about 75% of the green progress bar and then stopped. This has happened a couple of times and now it won't even start running. The window appears but the progress bar does not start moving.

  I really don't want to have to do a clean install and lose all my files. I'm sure there must be a way to solve this problem, but everything I tried (including ongoing execution using a boot Installer Clean and a safe Startup Mode) have not worked. Any help would be much appreciated.
  
  Thank you

• Vista SP1 upgrade to XP Pro SP3 or SP2 Business?

  I have a Dell T3400 workstation comes with a Vista Business OEM COA product key, however, this PC has worked with XP Pro SP3 using detail settled. It is time to migrate to Windows 7, however, there is no direct way to "upgrade" from XP to Windows 7, except a clean install.

  My plan is initially upgrade Vista Business OS and then upgrade to Windows 7 Pro. This should be doable by the version upgrade paths available for each operating system. Of this plan, I did a 'test' upgrade to Vista SP1, and it seems to have worked OK (after application for new drivers various and other software upgrades).

  Windows activated and ran OK with this process, but subsequently he reported several pieces of software not compatible with Vista - no surprise. However, I could uninstall is no longer that slot software Vista as it seems to have too writes the necessary special uninstall files. I've returned to XP from a ghost image and will have a second run at it with some XP more pre working on ready for the upgrade.

  My main question: should I remove the patch SP3 of XP to upgrade it to SP2 before applying the Vista SP1? Any other consideration? I read in some other forums of Vista upgrades becomes flaky or non-fonctionnel because they were created before the release of XP SP3 and don't seem too well to manage the later version.

  Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

  I think it will be a case of trial and error. Since you have Ghost to restore XP you can uninstall all apps that play well with Vista and do the upgrade to Vista.  Just make sure that the device drivers for Windows 7 are.

• Update to Vista SP1 KB936330 successful but on reboot, I am asked to re - install the update for SP1

  I need help to install Vista Service Pack 1 successfully.

  I'm trying to upgrade my Dell Inspiron 1720 32 bit to Windows 7 since Vista. Assessment update Windows7 SW told me that I had to first upgrade to Vista SP1. I downloaded and installed the Vista SP1 and the Windows Update Troubleshooter said "Update successful" so I bought and downloaded the Windows 7 SW update. However, I checked one last time before making the update for Windows 7 and Windows Update reports the update SP1 is required. I did the above at least 4 times for consistent results as described above. I rebooted at least 3 times after the updated Vista SP1.

  If the Windows Update Troubleshooter tells me that I need Vista Service Pack 1 and still Windows Update report shows clearly that I have Vista Service Pack 1 installed KB936330.

  I thought that maybe try to update to the Vista SP2 but it says I can't do it until SP1 is successfully installed.  I'm stuck and I need help.

  Hmmm - that sounds as if there is a junction (I thought I had checked for that).

  Please, check the following

  SFC /scanfile=c:\windows\system32\tcpmon.ini

  What result do you get?

• "WindowsUpdate_800705B3" "WindowsUpdate_dt000" error during the update to Vista SP1

  Windows Vista.

  Dell XPS M1530 laptop.

  NVidia GeForce 8600 M GT graphics card.

  I tried to upgrade to Vista SP1 at least 10 times.   It retores the previous version every time.   He died in post installation configuration phase each time, before and after the reboot.

  I did this update with Windows Update and manually with the full 400MB download from Microsoft.  I cleaned the SWDistribution directory.

  I did it with a clean boot. I tried with Norton Antivirus discharged.   I have removed all unnecessary applications.

  I have updated all drivers, including a complete set of video drivers directly from NVidia.

  I ran all stand-alone hardware diagnostics.   I have run chkdsk at startup.   I ran sfc.  I ran MS virus scan.

  All these have been recommended in the forum posts.   None worked.    Many think 800705B 3 error is a video driver issue, but I'm now on the most recent.

  I wish that the program of MS Windows Update would report is just a mistake 800705B 3.   Why is there no error message with the error number?

  Help, please.

  This problem has been resolved by running the diagnostic MS tool and find that some system files have been corrupted.   We had to upgrade (IE reloading) Vista version original DVD.  Then the SP1 and SP2.    Thanks to MS Chat technology!

• Inability to see the Vista sp1 when I run WU. / problem driver Sigma Tel.

  Hello

  I have a laptop XPS M1710, the series models MXG061 with Vista SP0. I tried to upgrade to Vista sp1 since its release on 18/03/2008 without success. I read all the MS KB dealing with potential/problems and had the required 3 KB / hotfixes installed before beginning the process.

  The only question I identified was the Sigmatel audio driver. I've updated my driver installed with the newest Dell A02 v.6.10.0.5343 download one and tried WU and could not see Vista sp1. I then tried another pilot that I became aware of via a request mailed to experts-exchange posted by an employee of dell Chris B. was V.6.10.0.5614 A09 still when I tried WU after the installation I was unable to see Vista sp1. Any constructive help on this issue would be appreciated. Thank you.

  
  

• Upgrade satellite Vista M30 - need drivers

  Hello

  I'm pretty clueless about computers and upgrades to Vista to realize I needed drivers. I have a M30-604, and where I would be able to find drivers for I can use wireless etc.

  Thank you

  Carol

  Hello Carol

  Unfortunately I have to disappoint you. Satellite M30 is quite old and it will certainly not supported in Vista. Because of this, you will not be able to find a driver for Vista on Toshiba download page. As far as I know Just notebooks with Vista capable sticker must be supported.

  I have Satellite M70 and it is also not supported, but I managed to install Vista and everything works fine. Driver audio I found Googling autour.

  Sorry! :(

• Install Vista SP1/upgraded to Windows 7

  I tried to update this Dell XPS 410 (2 GB) for Win 7 for three days now without success.

  When I started, I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, who said that I had to install Service Pack 1.  I tried, but couldn't.  Just to be sure I wasn't facing some old screw ups, I did a clean install of Vista Home Premium (which came with the computer) and installed all the Windows Update says updates are available without errors.  I think it was around 104.  Curiously, that does not include SP1.

  Then I downloaded and tried to install SP1.  I get this error when I do: "an internal error occurred during the installation of the service pack. Error code: 0x007000D.  See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=101139. "

  I went to this webpage (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947366#readiness) and have gone through the steps.

  1. He recommended to download the stand-alone package for the update and trying to install that.  I did this and got the above error.
  2. It is recommended that download and run the system update readiness tool.  I did that (it took more than two hours!), restarted the computer and tried again to install SP1.  I got the same error.
  3. She recommended to close all applications and try to install SP1 - I had nothing else running while this was accomplished in step 2.
  4. At this point, he said "If your problem is still not resolved, you can try the steps of troubleshooting on your own, or you can contact Microsoft technical support.".  I don't know how to contact Microsoft technical support, so I'm here.

  I am only running Microsoft Security Essentials; I guess that would not get in the way, but I've disabled real-time protection and tried to install - same error.

  I'm about at the end of the things that I know to try.  How can I get Windows 7 installed?  I have three computers (almost) identical and installed Win 7 on the first without any difficulty.  Took about two hours.

  Can anyone help?  I need all three of them on Win 7 as soon as possible.    It's frustrating to have so much wrong.

  The machine looks good all other ways.  He has installed Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and some third-party software, HP printer, and an another USB device.  I did a chkdsk - weather.  I have installed Dell Support Center: it checks the material and the machine passes all the tests.

  Assistance would be appreciated.  A way to circumvent the requirement of SP1 and install Win 7 anyway?

  I [was] trying to install SP1 manually, because it has not offered by Windows Update...

  There are all sorts of reasons that Vista SP1 was not offered through Windows Update so far. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948343.
