What h/w to connect ACD to PC ATI Mobility Radeon X1300

Hi – I have a 23” Apple Cinema display that I run with my Mac PowerBook G4. I now have a Lenovo T60 with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 graphics card. Two questions,
1. What do I need to purchase to use the Apple display with my PC laptop?
2. What kind of KVM do I need to switch my Apple keyboard, mouse, and USB hub between my PowerBook and the PC laptop?

For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I understand that after reinstalling Windows 7 when you connect a TV via HDMI  or watched a video on it the image would start to break and the freeze the computer. You have had this difficulty since you reinstalled Windows 7.
I suggest you reinstall the original driver and then run the HP Support Assistant  to check for HP updates.

  • Cannot Connect to External Display with Mobility Radeon on Windows 10

    Just upgraded to Windows 10 Professional 64-bit. Upon upgrading, I have completely lost the ability to connect my 5 year old Pavilion dm4 to an external display via HDMI.  Further investigation leads me to conclude that *only* the integrated Intel graphics chipset is functioning.  The Mobility Radeon 5000 series is completely non-functional, which is why the HDMI functionality is also gone. I've tried 3 solutions: 1) Re-installing the latest Mobility Radeon drivers provided by HP on my laptop's respective webpage.  These graphics drivers are for Windows 7, but at least they were specifically made for HP-style switchable graphics.  This solution failed: I get an error stating that the device is not working or the drivers need updating. 2) I installed the latest drivers for my Radeon directly from AMD's site using their autodetect hardware feature.  These drivers are compatible with Windows 10, but not for a switchable graphics configuration that seems to be required by my HP laptop. This solution also failed: when I try to switch to an external display, I get an external error message that says no external display can be found (no surprise, because the Radeon is not working). 3) I repeated both steps (1) and (2), only this time installing the drivers in Windows 7 compatibility mode.  Alas, in either case I could not get the drivers to install.  The installation in compatibility mode would permentantly hang a fraction of the way through the process and never finish. Does anyone know of other solutions?? I found potential solutions using a BIOS update for dv6 and dv7 systems, but I have neither of those. My system is dm4. System information: OS: Windows 10 Professional 64-bit (upgraded from Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit wi/ SP1).Product Name: HP Pavilion dm4t-1000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PCProduct Number: WD470AV

    Ok, thought I'd chip in here as I've just got back from an appointment at the Apple Store Genius Bar to address the same problem with my April 2011 MacBook Pro. It's Mini Display Port has never worked when connecting to an HDMI tv set though I use it constantly with a Display Port compatitble third party external monitor. I've run OS X 6.8, 7 and 8.2 and it's had no effect, any set I connect to will not see my MBP.
    They wheeled out an HDMI tv (it was a generic set and not a brand I'd heard of) to connect to, logged into my MPC with Apple's remote diagnostic tool and found no hardware or software issues.  They changed around the leads 3 times and none of them worked. One of the Genius then plugged what looked like a 13 inch 2012 Macbook into the the tv and on the second lead (one of 2 identical iWires taken from the shop display) it worked.
    The Genius' take on it was that they'd never had anyone come into the store with this problem and that it's the first he'd heard of it. He also said that there is no mention of HDMI compatiblity in any of Apple's tech docs or manuals for my machine and that Apple have never claimed HDMI compatibilty with Display Port.
    One hypothetical solution would be to completely replace the logic board but that wouldnt work as all we'd be doing is replacing a logic board that according to the Apple diagnostic tools is working perfectly for an identical one. Apparently Apple made no changes to the logic board for that computer.

  • What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)

    I feel like I should know the answer to this. I can't believe it is a hard question.
    What is the direct connect method for transfering photos from my macbook pro to my iphone without using iTunes syncronization? (iow: a simple photo copy from mac to iphone?)
    Easy? Right?
    Just plug my iphone in to a mac and copy a photo from the mac to my iphone.
    I don't have internet access - I can't email it, or mobileme it, or dropbox it.

    iTunes. Other than that there is no direct method. However, do try the iPhone forums.

  • I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.

    I'm having similar issues with my phone.  I got my first iPhone recently, only had an iPod touch gen4 for a little over a year.  Updated to 6.0.2 when we got the phone (iPhone 5) a few days before Christmas.  When I got home on the evening of January 11, my phone would not connect the router anymore.  I was able to get it to connect after resetting the phone and the router, updating the router, and manually connecting.  That laste for a few minutes and then wouldn't work anymore.   I live in an area with very limited service, we have a network extender installed to help, and I am barely getting a 3G signal at times.
    My wife's iPad 4, my touchiPod 4, and all of our laptops are working just fine on the router.  When I dropped my kid off at school today, I noticed that I am not even seeing the school network anymore from the parking lot where before I got 3 or 4 bars and could connect to their wifi when I was there.  Today my phone goes back and forth between seeing my home network but not connecting, to not even seeing the network at all even from the same room that the router is in.
    Hope Apple fixes this problem soon..............

    No. Your iMac only has DVI video connection. You would need an iMac with Thunderbolt.

  • What is an "active connection" to the FMS server?

    Hi,
    I am wondering exactly what are considered "active connections" to an FMS server?
    Is it only the RTMP/RTMFP NetConnections, or do NetStreams also count?
    Thanks

    Only netConnections. You can't connect a netstream without a netconnection so they don't count on the connection count number.

  • How do I find out what is using a connection pool

    This morning weblogic 8.1.5 complained it couldn't expand a connection pool because it had reached is max concurrent connects limit.
    The issue I have is that I don't actually know what is using the connection pool. It should be defunct and redundent but obviously not.
    This caused all the threads to be consumed and the managed server hung.
    Does anyone know wether it's possible to interigate the pool to find out what it's doing ? I can't check the db as it's managed by another company and I have a v limited read only account.... I can't even select from v&session.
    Cheers in advance for any help.

  • What are the pin connections from 7764 to stepper motor drive

    what are the pin connections from UMI 7764 to stepper motor drive? I use PCI 7340 controller. Third party driver  is not branded, but assembled.  It has 3 inputs, one for (A,A/) one for (b,b/) one for enable, apart from ground pin.

    Dear enigmata,
    Here is a link to the UMI Manual that describes the signal connections:
    http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/321941b.pdf
    What you really need is the documentation for the input of the "translator" mentioned on the left side of the last diagram you posted. It is still not possible to tell which of you drive inputs correspond to step and direction (or CW, CCW) because in the circuit that you posted, these signals have already been converted by other circuitry in the drive to the A, A/, B, B/ output signals for the stepper motor.
    I agree with Jochen: Without the documentation you will need to test it out as he described in his last post.
    Best Regards,

  • What is the life expectancy of the older base stations (flying saucer/spaceship looking one) and what are the telltale connection signs that it's starting to go?

    What is the life expectancy of the older base stations (flying saucer/spaceship looking one) and what are the telltale connection signs that it's starting to go? Also, are there any compatiility issues with newer models and G5/G4s?

    What is the life expectancy of the older base stations (flying saucer/spaceship looking one) and what are the telltale connection signs that it's starting to go?
    Apple has never published any life expectancy specifications for any of their routers (or desktops/laptops) that I am aware of. As a rule of thumb, I would consider two years for any consumer electronics that operates 24 x 7 to be a reasonable period. Obviously some experience more or less and it would depend on a number of factors: ambient temperature, electrical circuit stability, area prone to lightening strikes, etc.
    Some telltale signs that an AirPort has (or is about to fail):
    Status lights are not illuminated or do not match any of the known configurations.
    Unit feels cool to the touch after power is applied even after a lengthly (15-30 minutes) period of time.
    Unit refuses to intialize, even after performing multiple "factory default" resets.
    Weak or no wireless signal.
    Ethernet port(s) not functioning
    Etc.
    Also, are there any compatiility issues with newer models and G5/G4s?
    Three potential issues:
    Depending on the version of OS X you are running on these clients, they may not be able to support the latest AirPort Utility required to administer the latest AirPorts. OS X 10.5.7 is the minimum required.
    Support for 802.11n connectivity. Most G5 or G4 Apples support 802.11g, some only 802.11b.
    Support for WPA2. Not supported if the G5 or G4 is equipped with the Original AirPort Card.

  • What happen when we connect Two PC with IP from Same subnets

    Scenario 2nd : What happen when we connect Two PC with IP from Same subnets. PC1 -192.168.10.1/24 PC2 - 192.168.10.2 on a two different L2 Switch on different vlans which are connected via a LAN cable.
    All ports are access ports
    Interview Question : No More Info.
    Pc1<SwA>------<SwB>PC2
    Q.1 Will they communicate If yes what will be packet/frame flow.
    Q.2 If not where will be the packet/frame drop. ? Why.
    I need step by step if possible plz how the packet moves , vlan taggings n all internal works that happens behind .. plz 
    thnx in advnce ....

    Hi Abhishesk,
    The PCs should communicate each othet.
    Since there is no trunk port involved, there is not tagging involved.
    Since both the PCs are into the same subnet. PC1 will not need default gateway for the communication with PC2. So PC1 will start with sending ARP request for PC2 MAC address.
     Since all the ports in SW1 are in same VLAN, the ARP should reach all ports including the switchport where SW2 is connected to.
    Sw2 has got a complete different access port on ALL the switchports. Sw2 will receive the ARP from Sw1. Remember that there is no tagging for the frame. Hence Sw2 will again send the ARP packet to all the ports which belong to same VLAN wherein the packet is received. ie, Sw2 will send the ARP packet to all the ports in Sw2. PC2 will also get the the ARP.
    The ARP reply will make it way back using the same logic.
    Now both the PCs can start the actual packet exchange.
