Various Installation Problems with Portege R100 and Windows XP

Hello,
i recently purchased a used Portege R100. It came without OS and i wanted to install XP SP2.
I know that restores only work with suited PCMCIA drives, but the HDD is formatted, so there is no recovery possible i guess.
Here are my problems:
- with my very old Freecom PCMCIA CD-Drive the Windows Setup CD is recognized and it starts loading XP drivers until it wants to start Copying the installiation files --> then I get the Windows Bluescreen with the 00x7 error (virus or driver)
- the same happens with my old W2k Pro installation disk.
- With the even older W98SE strange things occur too: The installation seems to work properly, but when it comes to boot with W98SE for the first time the systems hangs up with pixelgarbage.
- Making the 6 Bootdisks with makeboot did not work either.
- I also tried MS-DOS! And guess what! That worked! Loading the Freecom drivers and copying the Windows I386 folder to my hdd with volkov commander (something similar to NortonCommander) worked too! So i had hav the files on my disk but after running winnt in the i386 folder, the system hangs after a while, when it starts to copy files to a temporary folder.
So i nearly tried everything i know. right now i am downloading knoppix to try that.
I have run Memtest86 and the Diskmanager 9 to test RAM and HDD, both finished withut errors, so the main parts involed in the setup process seem to work. May it be that my IDE controller is broken?
I have no idea, WHY windows won't install!
Help is warmly welcome!!
Thanks,
Christian

Hello
i fixed the problem:
The method of installing the i386 files to the DOS Disk and running winnt works. I was to impatient. Windows setup starts copying the files to a temporary folder. Nromally you see the info bottom right, waht files are copied at the moment. This is a good indicator that the system is still working.
My setup does not show waht files are copied to the temporary folder. But it still works. HDD is spinning all the time. Due to the "non-Sound" of the R100 i was sure it hung up. But it simly did not. After lets say 20 minutes, the setup process went on as usual....
Now i have XP in the R100 and all teh drivers installed. What a wonderfull notebook, really!
Thanks for the hints anyway...

  • Problems with captivate 8 and windows 8

    I´m using captivate 8 and windows 8, and I am having problems with the visualization and publication of my projects. For visualization, there is a message of an error with syntax of the files ou directory, and nothing happens. For publication, I can´t see the project published in the browser. It opens only a text file, with the codes. Is there anyone thar can help me with that?

    Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

  • Problems with Acrobat 8 and Windows 7 64 bit

    Hi all
    I need help with Acrobat 8 and Windows 7.
    During the installation I'm asked to locate the file AdobePDF.dll on the disk. Selected the file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AMD64.
    The installation finishes without any other problem.
    The problem arises when I want to create a pdf from a Word document. I'm using Office 2007. When I select he option to create a pdf from a file, I get message in the attached image.
    If I try to used the Adobe PDF printer from within Word, nothing happes. The small printer icon apprears in the Windows task bar, but that is all. If I double click on the icon, I can see the print job, but that's all. There is no dialog box that asks me to save the file.
    Assistance will be apppreciated.

  • Software Installation Problems with Media Source and Nomad Explo

    Hello Creative Users,
    recently I had to reinstall my operating system on the PC. I have an IBM Thinkpad R30 with a Sitecom USB2.0 pccard. I am running WinXP Pro SP2 with all latest updates.
    I have a Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra with Firmware .20.08 and an update harddri've of 80GB.
    As long as I was running the software on my previous installation everything worked fine.
    I installed the driver .26.02. This recognized the Jukebox. Musicmatch is able to communicate to the Jukebox and recognizes all files on it.
    When I installed Nomad Explorer I got an error ctregserv failed because ctin...dll is not found.
    When I tried to install Media Source from the original disk it showed an error after 30% Media Source not found. Install Media Source before continuing.
    This is what I received now with all verisons of Media Source and Noamd Explorer incl. .30.0.
    Can someone help me as synchronizing with Musicmatch is a pain.
    Thanks
    Rolf

    Hi everyone,
    as I saw many questions regarding installation problems with Mediasource or Nomad Explorer
    in this forum I will answer my own question right here. I was pointed to the answer by a friend with a similar problem on some other software.
    When trying to install the Creative software under WinXP SP2 I happens that the registration does not work. the reason are missing write attributes to the keys for
    Creative software. To correct that go to: Start, Run and enter regedit. Hit ok and you are in the registration editor.
    Find the Creative location unde HKEYS_SOFTWARE. Click right mouse button and choose
    properties.
    Check full access for your user as well the system user. click on advanced and mark both all the users you want to install from. Check the lower box below the user window sayin something about roghts being propagetd to lower folders etc. Cklick conform and ok, click confirm on previous screen and close regedit.
    Now you should be ok and able to install.
    Regards
    Rolf

  • Problem With Captivate 4 and Windows 8

    Hi,
    I've a problem with Captivate 4 on Windows 8 projects :
    The mouse is not tracked.
    I've applied the last patch for this version (11/15/2011).
    Is there another patch for this ?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi there
    I know this will come off as sounding snarky, but please know it's honestly not intended that way,
    Windows 8?
    I never was able to make Captivate 4 run successfully on Windows 7. So I'm not the least bit surprised to hear it has issues with Windows 8!
    Personally, I'm thinking you are due for an upgrade to Captivate if you want it to work on Windows 8. But then again, I'm not even certain if Captivate 6 is Windows 8 compatible.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Problems with shutdown, expose and window switching

    Hi there,
    Recently I've been having a few issues with OS X. First of all it wasn't shutting down properly -- the menu bar would disappear and it would look like it was going to shutdown, but it never did. I could move down to the dock (on auto-hide) and it would re-appear, at which point I can bring up a terminal window and use 'shutdown' to do the job. On startup I'd reset the PRAM, and then do a disk-check, but the problem keeps coming back.
    Subsequently, I've also been having problems with expose and switching windows (i.e. command-tab). Namely, neither of them work. Expose won't fire from either hot corners or the keyboard, and if I re-launch the app from the Apps folder (without trying to kill it first, I should say), it does nothing. Cmd-tab gets interpreted as just tab, and the keyboard shortcut for dashboard also fails (although I can start the dashboard from the dock).
    I read in another post about an invalid jpeg in the downloads folder being able to cause the Expose problem (seems like a most unlikely bug?). Anyway, I cleared all pictures from my downloads folder and functionality came back, but now it's gone again. It's really very frustrating as it makes moving between windows a lot more hassle.
    Any thoughts would be gratefully received.
    TIA,
    Mat

    This sounds interesting.
    Can you post a copy for the rest of us to see?
    As for actually helping you, and not just satisfying our curiousity, if you start cutting pieces of the code you will probably end up finding the source of the problem (and we won't have too big a program to handle). Since DSC is a likely suspect, you may want to start there.
    Also, are you creating an installer and using that to install? If not, you may wish to try that.
    Try to take over the world!

  • Problem with K9N Ultra and Windows 7!!

    Hello,
    I have the following system:
    - K9N Ultra (MS7250 - Version:2.0)
    - AMD Athlon 64 3500+
    - 4x Kingston KVR533D2N4/512
    - NVIDIA GForce 7300GS
    - Seagate Baracuda: ST3120827AS (7200rpm)
    - NEC DVDRW ND4571A
    I am running Windows XP SP3 but when I try to install Windows 7 (either 32 or 64 bit versions), when the system boots up, I choose to run from CD/DVD, the files are being loaded in the beginning but then the system is stuck in the next screen where it says Starting Windows with the green bar. I have left it for up to 90 minutes and it remains there, no change. I have tried with several different disks, always the same. I tried disabling legacy USB drivers, disabling on board audio, disabling USB and having a normal keyboard and mouse, always the same, no change whatsoever, the system halts at the same point every time.
    Can someone please offer some help?

    i tried once more, again disabling onboard audio, legacy, floppy, everything.....same thing, when the files are loaded and the screen goes at the green bar, the DVD spins down and halts there for ever.
    i am really pissed with this problem. i have installed windows 7 in all of my computers and this is the only one that absolutely refuses for windows 7 to be installed! 
    hmm..what do you mean about the PSU? why would the installation of 7 have a problem with the PSU? 2 days ago i installed again windpws xp sp3 (just to see if they would install in contrast to 7) without a problem. i am really tired of changing keyboards, DVDs, taking RAM in and out etc to it...i could live without the need to take a PSU out of another pc and install it to that one, is there some BIOS fix for the problem you mention?
    the bios is version 3.00 from what i read.
    also..what is nvidia boot agent that is the fourth option of boot in my bios??

  • Still having problems with UAG SP4 and Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    This must be one of many threads on this topic but I'm stuck.
    Because of the incompatibility with 8.1 and UAG2010 we've updated to SP4. Now, out-of-the-box 8.1 no longer wants to install the client components via ActiveX. I can log in, but the client isn't compliant so not all functions are available.
    I actually had to manually get the client components from our UAG server. After installing I compared the System Information window with that of my 8.0 / IE10 installation and the only difference is that I can't see the version of the Device Session Cleanup
    and SSL Application Tunneling gives me a "red X" in 8.0 and says "not detected" in 8.1. I did notice some .NET 3.5 components missing in 8.1 so I installed those too.
    Compatibility mode does not help and switching to IE9 mode using the developer console is a workaround, not a solution.
    What am I not seeing here?

    Hi,
    maybe the same problem we've faced:

  • [T410] discrete gfx - Problem with Video Card and Windows Aero -anyone using 4Gb memory modules?

    [3/3/2010 Update]
    There's a issue of using 4Gb sticks on T410 currently that results in video output artifacts and aero interface problems when using Lenovo supplied drivers v8.16.11.8825. I think I can call it confirmed (Three people including me face this issue).
    Possible workaround is to install modified EliteBook 8440p video driver (read along this thread) comes with a BIG drawback of not being able to change brightness level within Windows 7. To sweeten it a little bit - you can set luminance level at POST screen, when computer boots up.
    [Original Message]
    Encountered strange behavoir of my T410.
    I have a T410 with 256Mb of Video Memory and 1440x900 display, a T61 with 128Mb of Video Memory and 1400x1050 dsplay and external monitor HP w2338h with 1920x1080 resolution.
    If I connect external monitor to my T410 and launch Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 - image blinks and comes back with Aero disabled. Looking through event logs reveals the lack of memory. Entry information can be found further.
    Now If I do the same with my old Thinkpad T61, connect the same monitor using the same cable - I can open as many Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 instances I like (tried 5) and nothing blinks and Aero stays enabled.
    Actually I find ridiculous, a notebook with more VRAM cannot archive the same performance as notebooks with less.
    Does anyone know what path should I pursue to solve this issue?
    UPDATE: Simply running multiple instances of Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 without external monitor causes Aero disabled as well.

    This must be buggy drivers, on Lenovo download site is just the one and the only initial driver for T410 graphics card.

  • Problem with remote control and Windows 7 - HP Pavilion 6301eu

    I installed Windows 7 32-bit and my remote control does not work. I have tried all possible drivers and still nothing ... Photo driver attached. Does anyone have a link to the current drivers for the remote control and Windows 7? thank you

    Hi John:
    Thanks but, I had already done this. I was having THAT problem with Encore (could not even initialize before tanking) when I first installed it and that's when I updated the Roxio engine. I don't know what else there is to update or correct at this point.
    There was one thing that occurred to me: When I was using XP, I had to disable Open GL in order to get Encore to stabilize. I've heard one recommendation for Encore that one must disable graphics acceleration. I would like try that here except I can't figure out how to do that in Windows 7.
    I've been Googling "Windows 7 Disable Graphics Accel" and have come up with nothing useful.
    Thanks for your help though and if you have any other ideas, I'm all ears.

  • Problems with Active Directory and Windows 2003

    Hello,
    I'm using Mac OS X Server 10.4.9 with Active Directory bound to a Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain. I can bind successfully to the domain using the graphical interface. Then in Samba I can access shared directories using Windows users. However, after some time somehow there are problems and Windows users aren't authenticated anymore on the Mac. I've looked at the firewall and there are no denied packets from the Mac. There are two servers in the domain, all clocks are synchronized and domain information is up to date. When I unbind the Mac, I can see the machine account being deleted on both domain servers and created too on both machines when I bind to the domain.
    Problems occur when I try login in using ssh or samba do I think this is a problem with the AD module.
    I turned on debugging messages on DirectoryServices:
    sudo killall -USR1 DirectoryService
    When in Windows, using the Administrator user I try:
    net use \\10.0.0.1 /user:domain\Administrator
    Where 10.0.0.1 is the Mac.
    In the Mac I get from
    tail -f /Library/Logs/DirectoryService/DirectoryService.debug.log |grep ADPlug

    I really don't know what to do. The Windows Event log shows no messages. The link used to work and there have been no changes in the domain servers.
    The key line seems to be:

    But I don't know what that ADSEngine.mm is.
    XServe G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Hello.
    Thanks for your reply.
    I tried the net use with a drive letter with and without the /user switch. When I use a domain user domain\user1 I can't connect. When I use a user local to the XServe it works.
    When I use
    net use x: \\10.0.0.1\share /user:domain\user1
    I get prompted for a password, but it doesn't work.
    I checked the firewall and all packets to or from the mac are accepted, no denied or dropped packages.
    I already went through the MS document on fw ports. Before I opened to Kerberos ports the binding failed. No the binding work OK.

  • Problem with "watch folder" and Windows 7

    I have just switched to Windows 7 and Elements 9 - so far things are working quite well, but I am having a problem with "Watch folder"  It is watching my odf folder "My Pictures" but all my new photos are going into Libraries/Pictures and PSE9 won't let me add that to the watch folder section.  I am afraid that if I ask PSE9 to Get Photos and Videos / From Files and folders I may get a whole buch of duplicates in my Organizer.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you - I followed your directions
    and found that I had already tagged it to watch, but hadn't realized that it was tagging both the old and the new.  Big learning curve for me.

  • Problem with Encore CS4 (and Windows 7, possibly)

    Greetings:
    Anybody else having this problem? First I'll get my system blood work out of the way. It's a brand new HP Pavillion.
    Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit)
    8GB RAM
    Over 700GB of FREE harddrive
    Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @ 2.5 GHz
    Video Chip Set: Intel G45/G43 Express Chipset
    I have ensured that everything is updated. This includes:
    All CS4 Applications
    Windows 7
    My Graphics Card Driver
    My Display Driver
    I have also updated the Roxio PX Engine to V4.18.16a. I had read on a forum that Encore uses this driver and it should be up to date.
    OK, the problem, which I can reproduce with the simplest Encore project:
    1.     Start Encore
    2.     Create a new project - specify DVD - everything else id default.
    3.     Create a timeline
    4.     Import asset. It is a simple Standard Video AVI file, 720x480.
    5.     Select timeline for editing
    Here's what happens:
    A) Monitor window behaves normally. I can click play and watch the imported video. Sound is fine, everything is fine. I can start and stop the play back freely. All is well.
    B) Now, I can do a number of things to create the problem I am having. The simplest is to just go to the timeline editor, select the AVI asset that has just been there, running fine, and remove it from the time line. At this point, the monitor window's internal frame that used to represent the video view port area, disappears. By "disappears", I mean that the Monitor window goes to the background color which is used for empty, unused window regions. What had been there before was a jet-black frame representing the video view area
    Now, if I go to the project window and re-select the AVI asset that I was just viewing and put it BACK into the timeline, the Monitor does not restore. If I play the timeline, the monitor is still blank, although I can hear sound.
    In addition to this, I also find that Encore has slowed so that response to the simplest operation is extremely slow. It doesn't crash, although, it might if I hang around long enough - but I don't. If I shut down Encore and restart it, it will work OK until I start manipulating video assets again and then the same thing will happen.
    I should mention that, yes, I have this new computer but I was using Encore on an older and much slower XP system with less memory and drive space and I had no trouble with encore. I should also point out that the AVI assets that I use to produce this problem are the same ones I had used successfully on the older system.
    Is there anyone out there that would find this problem familiar? Anyone find a solution?
    Thanks in advance to anyone that responds.

    Hi John:
    Thanks but, I had already done this. I was having THAT problem with Encore (could not even initialize before tanking) when I first installed it and that's when I updated the Roxio engine. I don't know what else there is to update or correct at this point.
    There was one thing that occurred to me: When I was using XP, I had to disable Open GL in order to get Encore to stabilize. I've heard one recommendation for Encore that one must disable graphics acceleration. I would like try that here except I can't figure out how to do that in Windows 7.
    I've been Googling "Windows 7 Disable Graphics Accel" and have come up with nothing useful.
    Thanks for your help though and if you have any other ideas, I'm all ears.

  • Problem with ASUS laptop and Windows 8

    Hii
    I have a problem with my ASUS vivo LAPTOP. Its running on Windows 8 and going pretty well, but sometimes when I use the Google chrome browser and open multiple pages the computer freezes and does nothing which requires me to shut it down by long pressing
    the power button.
    The question is what is the problem and does this process of long pressing the power button to shut it down harm my computer Hardware or Software?

    Are you sure the issue is happening only when you use Google chrome. Then, it is an issue with the browser. Remove chrome and then re-install and check if that fix the issue.
    Regarding force shut down is only meant to be used in emergency situations. If the computer is forced to shutdown everytime, this can lead to formation of bad sectors in hard disk and reduce its life span.
    Hope this helps.
