Useful tips, installing drivers

Hi there everyone.

I just bought a new R60 laptop to replace my dell burst up to ten year. It came with a Vista scam rubbish, so I tried to reinstall XP Pro on it like its kosher and less hungry and I know well.

Problem is that my R60 came without any support, so installing drivers is my biggest obstacle. I had a good old look through the forum and I found, downloaded on my old PC and installed the drivers concerned on the R60.

They are not [excuse my newbness almost] seem to auto install, so depending on the IBM/Leveno site installation instructions, is what has really confused me.

As I see I need to navigate

Start > all programs > Accessories > run

and all I can do is to go as far as

Start > all programs > Accessories

Through the race of early results in a file, or open the Notepad file not found error.

What I really need to do is install driver ethernet and/or driver chipset and so go systemupdate.

Just to say once again, how the beep actually activate you the drivers once you install on the hard disk.

[I assume it will solve several "unknown devices" listed in System Properties].

Any help gratefully received. Will be.

R60, 2 x T2300, 1 gig of RAM, 40 GB HD, XP Pro, 9459-AK2.

Finally thank you operational. I knew I had to have a screw loose not not out! For some reason, not all the material would recognize or accept drivers lenovo so I had to find and install drivers intel, etc and now only left with bluetooth and card reader to sort.

  • Used to install printer drivers

    I have a Hp Pavilion of 9280 with one 6500 printer all in one cable. It came with win7 installed. The printer is on a network. The printer worked fine with my old computer. On this one, he works from time to time. I've been on the HP technical support for four hours and with Norton and Microsoft just wants me to send money and maybe they will fix it. In devices and printers, there is a yellow triangle on my computer. When I run the troubleshooter it says that drivers are not installed for the printer, and of course when you're talking about windows to find that he never does.

    Ok? Have you tried to share your printer from this computer to others on the network? If not try this, first open devices and printers, then right-click on the printer in the list, go to Properties, select the sharing tab and then click on the button to Edit the sharing Options. Now, check the share this printer box and a name should appear now. The next thing you need to do is check the list in the directory box if you have a server that is running Active Directory and if you do not then don't worry in this regard. Now, click the additional drivers button and make sure you have both x 86 and x 64 drivers installed for other computers on your network. If she asked you to install drivers make sure you have your media ready. Now, press the button apply and then press OK. Now to use the printer on other computers, that's what you have to do is to remember the name of sharing, he gave you for your printer, you will need to use this name to attach to the printer. For this, in that you must also know the name of your computer then when you type it will look like this (\\YourComputerName\YourPrintersShareName). Now, at this moment, you will go to printers and faxes (if XP) or devices and printers (if Vista or 7) then you click Add a printer. Now, at this moment, you'll select Add a network printer and if its XP you want to Select a printer shared by name and if Vista or 7, you will choose the printer that I want isn't listed , then Select a printer shared by name. Type in the name of the computer and the shared name for the printer in the line provided, and then click Next. What will happen is it will ask you to install a driver for this printer on the computer, that computer is attached. That must be it and if it does work then I'll see what I can find to help out you.

    I hope this works

  • Used to install keyboard drivers

    It doesn't matter what keyboard I'm trying to use on my laptop. Whenever I plug it says installing drivers and all I get is a failure message. I went into Device Manager and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the manufacturers Web site. I even tried a comfort keyboard 2000 of Microsoft, and it does the same thing.                                OS windows 7 Home premium. I got the computer of an individual and not new or renovated so I think they may have done something to cause this problem without knowing. Also when I try to install the windows 7 SP1 updated it says it fails and needs to restore. These 2 problems could be related in some way? I generally think most of the stuff out there, but... it left me speechless. Help, please.

    The system may have a hidden recovery partition to create the recovery disks on this laptop instructions of manufacturers.

    Or you can contact that manufacturers support line to request records for a small fee.

    Unless reset you as long as the plant you have no idea what the previous user does with the system or installed / downloaded program files.

    You cannot correctly install a driver by moving it to another folder, which does not work

    You also have the problem that Win sp1 installs.

    So overall you have a damaged system you won't be able to heal until first put you it to a State factory. (Or buy a commercial version of win7 to clean install)

    Is BTW, this laptop brand/model?

  • SP M30: Unable to install drivers with tdevconex.exe

    Hi, for installing drivers WinXP on Satellite Pro M30, I have only one image burned on the installation CD. It seems that there is a problem with the tdevconex.exe (root dir). When it is started, a window appears which has asked to send an error report to Microsoft. So I'm not able to install some drivers (WLAN, LAN,...).

    Unfortunately, the drivers downloaded from the Toshiba Homepage see this file on the CD (as the wland.cmd for example).

    So, what can I do? I did find this file on the homepage for download. Can I install these drivers without the tdevconex.exe? How? Or where can I get the file?

    Thank you very much!
    Timothy

    Hello

    I put t know what image you have, but I recommend to use the original recovery CD. If you n t have one you can use the CD of the full Microsoft and after that version, you can install all the drivers, tools and utilities with the help of Tools & Utilities CD or you can download them from the download page of Toshiba.

    Very important, it is the command of facilities. After installing OS install Chip Set Utility initially, display driver, sound driver and so on. Before you begin to install Toshiba stuff please install common modules first. It is very important.

    Just FYI; If you check the download list for your model Toshiba on page you will find information update Microsoft Windows XP SP2. Here, you can check what drivers or tools must be reinstalled after installing SP2.

    Good luck!

  • Qosmio F10 - cannot install drivers for some hardware components

    Hello

    I decided to reinstall Windows XP SP2 again, given that the laptop was full with a lot of garbage and slow work. I've done it before, and it has always worked very well, but this time it does not recognize my sound card, network card, graphics card, etc., one could say that all the material.

    I used my tools and Utilities CD after installing Windows and installed first of all the chipset driver, rebooted my laptop, I tried to install my sound card, graphics card, network card, but nothing happens. Still, he does nothing. I really have no idea what is wrong, always worked before.

  • Satellite A500-13F: can I install drivers for ATI page?

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A500-13F with graphics ATI Radeon HD 4650.
    Can I install drivers from ATI downloaded from their site? I ask because theres a note on downloading the page saying as follows:

    Following books are not supported in this version: *.
    *...*
    * Computers laptop Toshiba (Please check with your mobile phone OEM for support of the drivers for these books) *.
    ...

    What does that mean? Do I have to install these drivers, will they work?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Still, you must download the drivers from the Toshiba driver page because they are pre-tested. Talk to the graphics driver, it is modified and a protection against overheating. So, I'm not advice you to use the ATI drivers. You can use them, but at your own risk.

  • Problem in installing drivers Sound and Bluetooth in a Satellite A100-712

    Hello everyone

    I have formatted the hard drive of my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-712, downloaded the sound and drivers BT of this amazing site.

    But there is still a problem.
    In Device Manager, there are yellow signs with the realtek drivers and bt. I don't know what to do?

    Please, you can list the steps for a correct installation for these drivers?
    BCZ I'm crazy... :(
    Thank you

    Hello

    First question: why you n t use the Toshiba Recovery CD?
    This CD contains all the drivers, tools and utilities, and you do not have to install any drivers separately

    Secondly: The Toshiba driver page, you should find the installation instructions document
    Just follow the order of installation mentioned in the txt file and everything should work!

    PS: Don't forget to use the right drivers. I think that the A100-712 is outside the PSAA9E series

    Hello

    Counter question: why you want to use any other display drivers? Are not satisfied with the drivers of Toshiba or can you notice problems in Windows?

    Theoretically, it is possible to use the nVidia drivers directly but don t forget that they are not pre-tested on your laptop. Your graphics card could be overheating and so you lose the warranty.

    Satellite P500 is fairly new, so I guess that Toshiba updates the display driver in next time too. Take a look at the page from time to time. ;)

  • Satellite L50-A-1CU - can I use non-Toshiba drivers for Intel & Nvidia?

    I have some problems in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop using the Toshiba drivers; can I use those of Intel and Nvidia, or there is something exclusive to Toshiba?

    Thank you very much
    Marco

    Hello

    In general, yes you can use them. Problem is that these drivers are not supported and tested by Toshiba for you to use their own risk.
    To be honest in the past years I've heard different stories about this. Some people are happy with the best graphics performance.

    Some people are complaining on very strong and permanent machine running to cold air. Even after that initial installation of image recovery the situation is the same. I ve heard say that the values in the GPU BIOS will be changed and it is not possible to recover their origin and default settings.

    There are also reports on the switch OFF as a result overheating.

    I put t know what to say on this subject. I use my machine with the original drivers. I don t want to risk anything. Of course, with your machine, you can do what you want, then that's your decision.

    If you install them please be so kind and send us comments. It can be very useful for other owners of laptops.

  • Help to install drivers

    I need help to install drivers from here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=4063&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us β = en & product = 3998680 I can't seem to understand what are the components on a number of things. 〉  Recently, I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7.  Question 1 - is equivalent to the driver HP Advisor HP Total Care Advisor?  If it is not and is an updated version has the better, so should I uninstall Total Care before you install the driver?  Also, when I updated from Vista to 7, I noticed that during the update it updated to the ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics/video. However what I can't say is if one who is already updated the same as the driver on the driver page or if its still a stale version.  I ask this because when my computer updated it automatically updated the Bios, but I still had to go and update the bios again from this page.  Is there an easy way to know if what you already have on your computer is version updated the drivers on the link?  I don't want install something I already have if its already been updated.

    The HP Advisor is the same as HP Total Care advisor, we used to have in Vista. You can download and it wil update your Total Care Advisor, that's what I did, and everything worked well.

    If you want to check if you have the latest version of the drivers on the Web site (such as for your ATI
    Radeon HD 3200), go to device-> graphics cards Manager->, click with the right button on ati radeon-> click Properties-> go to the tab "driver", then it looks like the version 'pilot', which is also mentioned on the page of the HP driver.

    Supposedly, when you run the HP support assistant (which is also accessible through HP advisor once update you), it detects if you have outdated drivers, but it does not work for me, so just browse the driver page and then check the Device Manager if you have the same version as what HP has published.

    Understanding Teredo

    To better understand the Teredo Tunneling , you must first know what IPv4 and IPv6 . IPv4 is a Protocol IP affecting our computers with a unique address which is our identity to communicate with the world via the internet.

    Most of us, are on the IPv4 technology and so is the rest of the world. However, because of all the available IPv4 addresses being occupied the Internet is running out of IPv4 addresses as more and many of us have begun to use internet and networks strongly that is the main reason that we have now the IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) which brings in countless addresses, which is 2 to the power of 128-2 ^ 128 (340,282,366,920,938,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) without end.

    Now that you know about the shortage of addresses IPv4 - it'll be easier to understand what the Teredo Tunneling . IPv4 is still widely used, to put in it, it's simplest form, I would say previously, everyone knew only one language, but now there are two so the person (System) in a language of IPv4 will be understood by the same, but not by those who speak in the language of IPv6, which makes networks communicate with each other is not possible , and internet is all about the connected networks and talk to each other - we need an interpreter to translate IPv4 to IPv6 and vice versa so that's what the Teredo Tunneling , this is an interpreter to treat language v6/v4.

    8. now download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware by clicking on the link below.

I highly recommend to get the premium version which will protect you in real time of the infection in the future against malware that can cause corruption, but if you do not want to buy then you can just get the free version.

    9. once it has been downloaded, install it. Open it and go to the Scan tab-> custom-> check scanning put in all the boxes in the left pane and select your drives in the right pane.
