• HP ENVY tilted 23-k000a Touch: terribly slow internet wifi after upgrade to win8.1 - ENVY tilted 23-k000a Touch

  I bought a few weeks ago.

  After upgrading to win8.1, I noticed the speed of internet was slow, I'm on a connection "Ultra-fast VDSL" yet all downloads by wireless are 15 to 25kbs max.

  If I connect the cable to the modem and disconnect the wireless connection, I get 200 to 300 kbs as I should, but then my game of Ryan box can't find my computer, as soon as I reconnect wireless it can.

  OK, maybe two questions here, but to start I would like to help to get the connection wireless operating at the speed it should.

  Thank you, John

  Maybe I should say kBs...

• Satellite Pro L300 upgraded to Win8 but I would like to update the drivers

  I have upgraded to Windows 8, but I found the Wifi adapter needs to be reset frequently (it seems to be without a cause) - Troubleshooting Windows 8 solves it by resetting the adapter, but I thought there will be a fix for this?

  When I tried to update the drivers I found that the L300 is not (in the not extensible or expandable lists)-is the L300 compatible in this respect by another model? Or can you suggest how to update all the drivers of Toshiba for this model.

  Thank you

  Your Satellite Pro is the model of laptop old enough and not supported for Win8.
  It is difficult to find drivers for the notebook not supported models and old.

  Problem is that if you make the decision to do so anyway you are on your own and can be all just lucky if everything works properly.
  > is the L300 compatible in this respect by another model?
  It is not easy to give you the right answer. What needs to be done is to compare each hardware component important as chipset, GPU, chip sound, LAN/WLAN with other models and see if some Win8 drivers are available. It is not so easy.

  For example: Toshiba Satellite pro L300 offers 4 different hardware platforms. One you have? What is the model number of your machine?

• Laptop Toshiba Vista OS; possible upgrade to Win8.1?

  Since my first posting, I learned that this Toshiba laptop had Win7 top via an update free, but when my daughter took a virus of the machine, she returned to Vista. She couldn't reinstall Win7 as the free offer (disc) had expired. It was a few years ago.
  so it should consider Win8 as being more available with Win7 support for installation on this machine?

  Hello

  Follow these steps before you 'Upgrade' to Windows 8.1.

  Vista to 8.1 is via a clean install; There is no upgrade path.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-8/upgrade-from-Windows-Vista-XP-tutorial

  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

• Usb3 slow after upgrade to win8

  I ve just upgraded my Envy 15-3200 to win 8, and I noticed that my external hd usb3 is mutating very slow (20-30 MB/s).

  I tried to look for a driver on the page driverdownload win8, but not luck. There is one for win7 so, but when I tried to install it, I got a messeage that it had compatibility problems.

  Any ideas?

  Windows 8 has its own built in usb 3.0 drivers. This is why there is no usb 3.0 Windows 8 driver available for download. No need. We used to see something similar with Windows XP Service Pack 2. Previously, you had to load a supplement to usb 2.0 driver, and after that just let Windows control usb 2.0. Check in your device manager and see if you have the 'super speed' usb ports or listed Central. See also if the old usb 3.0 drivers got carried over as a program in the Add/Remove Programs list. If so, remove them. Then restart

  You may need to uninstall the usb ports and hubs as devices and restart just to give the opportunity to load its drivers Windows 8.

• Satellite C660 - battery after upgrading to Win8 problems

  Hello world

  I upgraded my computer laptop windows 8 but now I have to keep the charger plugged in any time to use the laptop. The battery can be charged and will stop completely in half an hour. I think it's due to a lot of background with windows process 8 can someone there help me walk the battery disappear so quickly. I can't downgrade to windows 7 that I deleted the roll back data.

  Thanks in advance

  Kind regards

  Mark

  I put t believe that the battery discharges more quickly because of some processes that run in the background. This question might be possible on tablets or smartphones, but this isn't a case for the use of the laptop.
  You can try to change the power management settings Windows 8 in order to save the battery.

  But in my opinion, your battery is almost the end of life.
  I'm don't know how old is the battery, but in my case, the battery is a little older and he holds just load for 5 min.
  So, I think that replacing the battery would resolve the issue

• I built a new computer, attempted to install windows xp64, and then upgrade to win8. However, my new computer will not install xp. I can't install win 7 without problem? Why can I not install my Xp?

  Note: Make sure the virses on your computer. remove any installed hard drives or hard drive controllers newley. check the hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and completed. and restart your computer.

  I've changed hard drives, re-formatted and partitioned each. Attempts to load XP always get these results. Win 7 loads without problem.

  You really have a 64-bit version of XP?

  The Windows XP installation CD does not recognize SATA drives.  You must either have a SATA drive driver on a floppy disk (floppy drive) so that you can "press F6" during installation or (b) a slipstreamed XP install CD that incorporates the driver SATA or (c) temporarily change the BIOS in legacy IDE mode, install XP and then install the SATA drivers and SATA mode (this can be a bit complicated (: link1, Link2).

• How to prepare my Skydrive on Win8 installation for an upgrade to Win8.1?

  I posted this in the forum of Skydrive, but did not get a response, so perhaps this question belongs here instead.

  I am currently using Skydrive on my laptop Win 8.

  My "My Documents" folder it's in Skydrive folder. My library showed up in this folder so that when I click on "My Documents" folder in my Skydrive is one that opens.

  The default folder to the following location is empty: C:\Users\Joanne\Documents

  1. what happens when I switch to Windows 8.1?

  2 will be 8.1 sync my current Skydrive documents or the default location of documents (currently empty)?

  3. I plan to back all my documents to the default location and Skydrive uninstalling before I try to upgrade to avoid problems. What do you recommend?

  I put off the coast of the upgrade to 8.1 because I'm quite nervous about Skydrive. I had problems with my documents because I sometimes edit Skydrive is turned off, then later when his Skydrive on clears my new changes (I'll ask this question in a separate post later).

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  The Windows 8.1 update doesn't when you redirect personal folders in different places. Its best restore you all the folders that you have redirected to their original location.

  No, you haven't.  Reinstall the adobe software after a change of operating system does not have a 'new' activation.  It will take an another activation for you, but it will be still recognized as an activation on the same computer.

  If you have made a significant change in equipment (hard drive, cpu), then turn off before the change and the activation after the change would be a good idea, but adobe is good, catering to guests who fail to do so.  in fact, many people are unable to do so because of the accident of loss/disk hard of computer and adobe, it's easy to reset the number of activations, even in these circumstances (via chat, http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html).
