Windows Vista on low performance laptops

Windows Vista can most likely run on a machine like that, but here I will report soon enough for consumers Equium L-20 if they can run Windows Vista on these machines.

I will soon get their hands on Beta 2 of 17.6.06 weekend, so keep an eye on this page to see all the problems that may fall in front of you because I'm going to help you with any of your requests and problems that will meet these machines.

Hello

The big topic and I hope that we will be able to get answers about the prolems with VISTA running on Toshiba laptops?

I have the Toshiba L10 Equium laptop and I installed VISTA a couple of days and installation takes about 40 minutes, which is very good, considering that the L10 is only a Celeron 1.5 GHz (M). He's not a ' all little bit slower "than in Windows XP, but I'll still give it a few days to play with it.

The only one I installed since the utility CD W/LAN driver and I indicated that VISTA to the. INF (using XP SP2 compatibility mode) file in the folder, this utility on the CD and after reboot XP, W/LAN card has been detected and the driver installed. I can now access the internet wireless.

I also have an "unknown device" in Device Manager and that seems to be related to ACPI and when you check the properties and are perhaps "Microsoft Smart Battery subsystem" and I do not know which utility on the CD could address this. If anyone has seen it work on their L10 and knows what it is and what driver it has need, I'd appreciate some info please.

The "unknown device" in Vista has its location as-controller embedded compatible ACPI 'Microsoft' and 'value' is presented as
ACPI\ACPI0001 and * ACPI0001 and by chance, this is be the same 'value' for "Micrsoft SMART Battery subsystem" on the L10 when Windows XP is installed on it.

Apart from that, I have only one small problem, and I miss the 'battery power remaining' icon the system tray specifications and I can't find it in VISTA.

You can go into Power Options in VISTA, but I do not see the options "energy saving" laptop that you get with WinXP or the option to have an icon in the systray.

Anyone know if these portable options are in VISTA and if so, where?

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Windows Vista problems wireless on laptop

    First of all thanks in advance to anyone who can help me solve this problem. It really starts to drive me crazy. I have a laptop HP under Windows Vista Home Premium SP2, I built in adapter wireless and until a year ago it was working fine. I used a public WiFi access point, and I honestly think it crashed my adapter because it has never worked since. At the time I didn't it was something important.
    I can be right next to a wireless router (at home) and a laptop shows excellent signal and my HP link see the strength... until I hit... Then he throws a "Windows cannot connect to"
    I click on diagnose the problem and told me "Wireless association failed because Windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router.
    I am looking for the extra wireless and it shows the same thing but this time one that I want to connect to is now the low signal strength... I tried a signal booster and I have tweeked every setting I can think. I'm lost. Here is a partial of my ipconfig and my all in the event log.

    Hi DJGabby,

    • What is the only computer that is connected to the wireless network?

    Try to power cycle the router and the computer and check if it helps.

    On the PC:

    1. Save your work and restart the machine.

    On the router or modem (if wireless printing):

    1. Unplug the router and the modem.
    2. Wait 30 seconds.
    3. Plug in the modem and wait for it to come to the ready state.
    4. Plug in the router.

    After you put cycle check the connection between the router and the computer wireless.

    If the steps above do not help, try resetting the stack TCP/IP go to this article and either click on "Fix it for me" or follow the instructions to fix it yourself:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299357

    NOTE: You should do this for each network connection, even if they are disabled.
     
    Disable the DHCP Broadcast Flag:
    Link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/928233
    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756.  How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
     
    Windows Vista cannot obtain an IP address from certain routers or some non-Microsoft DHCP servers
     
    To resolve this issue, disable the DHCP BROADCAST flag in Windows Vista. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Click Start, type regedit in the search box, and then click regedit in the list programs.
    2. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
    3. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    4 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\ {GUID}
    5. in this registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the network adapter that is connected to the network.
    6. on the Edit menu, point to new, and then click DWORD (32-bit) value.
    7. in the new area #1, type DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle and press ENTER.
    8. right click on DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, then click on modify.
    9. in the value data box, type 1 and then click OK.
    10. close the registry editor.
     
    By setting this registry key to 1, Windows Vista's trying to get an IP address using the BROADCAST flag in DHCP Discover packets. If that fails, he will try to obtain an IP address without using the BROADCAST flag in DHCP Discover packets.
    You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the wireless card.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Note that this clears all data and reload all the software factory default. Be sure to back up all your important personal data beforehand!

    You can also make recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    How to get Windows Vista installed on the Toshiba laptop?

    I HAVE A TOTALLY VIRGIN (NOTHING on the HDD) computer PORTABLE TOSHIBA, I HAVE MY RESTORE DISKS for VISTA BUT CANT SEEM to GET THE OS installed on MY LAPTOP... Please help

    As a general rule, the installation - insert the installation disc, restart the computer and boot from the installation disc.

    BIOS - how to enter the BIOS and change Boot Order To Boot from CD/DVD

    The computer might need to be set to boot from the DVD drive.

    Each computer is different, when you turn on the computer, it should tell you what button to push to get into the BIOS. It is usually one of the following options and you have to push it in the first 5 seconds:

    F1 F2 F10 F12 ESC LED

    Once in the BIOS find the menu with the boot sequence and change it if it starts from the CD/DVD drive first. Each computer is a little different for this process as well, so I can't give exact directions.

    If you can start still not install it:

    Looks like you got the installation discs for the manufacturer of OEM computer, if so those are modified OEM Windows 7 install disks (they aren't the installation discs for Microsoft) and the best answer may come by contacting the manufacturer of OEM computers, because the changes they did make the different installation process then a normal installation disc.

    The processor and the graphcis card are old and not the fastest.

    Buy a new basic system of AMD (Athlon II X 2/X 3, at least 2 GB of DDR3 RAM, a mainbaord with AMD 880 G chipset (integrated graphics card), you can use the old HARD disc), it is not too expensive, but gives you a boost huge performance.

    I did a smart disk check. root / wmi: select * frommassstoragedriver_Failure status to predict where the performance parameters predicting failure_TRUE

    I used the fix from Microsoft to try to fix, didn't work. I need help.
    I think it has to do with HKLM/System/currentcontrolset/control/system files/NTstDisable8dot3NameCreation
    NTsfDisable last updated to access

    I did the coutless updates and secuitry updated and reinstalled drivers and programs and now I'm having this problem.
    Can someone tell me how to fix?

    Hi Stewfss,

    I would like to clarify the following things:

    (a) what exactly you are trying to do? Why are you trying this?

    (b) is your computer connected to a domain?

    (c) do you use the computer as an administrator?

     

    You can try the following steps:

     

    Step 1: Check with a different user profile

    If you do not have a different user account, you will need to create a (see link below).  If everything works fine with a different user profile, you can infer that the user profile is damaged, click on the link to find out how to solve this problem.
