A30p W2K Reinstall w/driver problems

I had a HDD failure in an IBM A30p last week.  Successfully replaced the HDD with a refurb.  Used IBM Recovery CDs to reinstall W2K Pro.  The install appears to load properly but when I reboot the machine, 4 "new hardware" devices are found - 2 are unknown and 2 are PCI cards.  When I attempt to find/install drivers for the PCI devices, no suitable drivers are found.  Similarly, with the 2 unknown hardware devices, I don't know what to look for.
Additionally, when I try to load the ethernet drivers, it doesn't like them either so I can't restore my network connection.
Any suggestions, similar problems or solutions?
Thanks, in advance, for any help.

That is somewhat weird...here's what I'd try:
a) Download the ACPI power management and SpeedStep first:

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4ZDPPT
b) Try both network drivers (you do know that all of  these must be unpacked from the Win subfolder after the install, correct?)
Hopefully this will resolve at least some issues, and then we'll take it from there...
Good luck and keep us posted.
Cheers,
George

  • Tecra 9000 running W2k - Audio controller driver problem !

    Please Help!
    I have a Toshiba Tecra 9000 notebook and recently discovered the sound was no longer working. I am unsure as to exactly when it first stopped working but believe it was either with MS Windows 2000 Updates or when cleaning up PC after Spyware attack. Upon checking the actual device (Yamaha AC-XG Audio Device) it has the every so helpful " ! " with a 'Code 10 - the device cannot start', within the 'Device Status' screen.
    I have removed device and allowed windows to detect & install, no success, then downloaded and tried many device drivers and generic drivers, and
    even the latest as suggested on a Toshiba support website I located
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com that being;
    Driver Date: 22/05/2001 Version: 5.12.1.2138
    I am at a complete loss as to why it stopped working and what to try next to try and resolve the problem. Any
    assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    K

    Hi
    It is possible that after installation of some MS Updates that the audio driver is blocked from loading to your system and no sound can be heard.
    If you want you can try to install this driver:
    http://drivers.soft32.com/driver/download-Yamaha_AC_XG_Generic_Drivers_for_YMF753_743_752-24609.html
    It helps after installation of SP2. I am not sure if it will help in your case but you can try it.

  • T420s wireless driver problem - after restore/reinstall

    i have a 420s that works fine.
    but something went strange with the wireless after one of the updates, not sure if it was windows or lenovo update.
    in any event, i tried reinstalling the driver, and it stayed broke.  so i rolled back the computer to a week or so earlier.
    this fixed the wireless, but broke a few other applications not lenovo related.
    after manual updates on those programs everything works again.
    so fast forward to today.  i did the lenovo update, and it decided that it needed to update the intel wirless driver package, since it was never installed.  **bleep**?  but i figured how bad could it be, AFTER i set a new restore point, so the only thing that would get restored was the wireless if it went strange on me.
    after the update, wireless broke again.  not entirely sure what was wrong, but it just didnt work right and wouldnt connect or see some known access points.
    question;  what is the proper method to completely deinstall/reinstall the wireless drivers and 'access connections' on this computer so that everything works properly? 
    thanks for any insight
    mark

    hey markgca,
    try uninstalling the wireless driver. let windows install its own generic drivers.
    test again with the generic drivers.

    Nokia N8 USB Driver Problem.jpg ‏138 KB

    I am having the exact same issue.
    The Ovi store was installed first via the N8 built in software, then uninstalled and reinstalled using the latest Ovi version from Nokia's webinstaller download, but still no success with the Ovi connection.
    The other file transfer modes work fine 'media transfer & 'mass storage'  but the Ovi store is still unable to run due to Windows VISTA not being able to locate the drivers for the N8 software. (despite being installed!)
    After accepting the prompt for Windows to locate the drivers... The same error as RayMond_021 screen shot appears.
    "COMPUTER SAYS.... NO!"
    Super frustrating! A brand new $800 phone and I can't even access the promised software (Ovi maps) that encouraged me to buy it!?
    PLEASE HELP US!!!!!

  • Reinstall Display Driver to enable 3D

    Currently using Photoshop CS6 Extended on Windows XP.   When I go to enable UGP in Preferences the message I get is "photoshop detected an error in your display driver.   Update or reinstall the driver and check UGP to retry".   Have reinstalled Photoshop but the problem is still there.   Photoshop Extended is compatiable with Windows XP so why can't I enable the display driver?

    CS6 does not support GPU on XP systems.

  • CS3 Leopard Epson R1800 driver problems solved (hopefully)

    Trying to put this post in searchable terms for others having the same problem finding the answer -- new to mac.
    Everybody knows that you need to go to epson.com and download the new mac leopard drivers for most of the printers, including R1800. But the new driver won't install correctly unless you go into Library/Printers/ and move the entire "EPSON" folder into the trash can before double clicking the VISE install icon on the downloaded package. (Maybe there is another way to make it work, but mine wouldn't actually install and start working till I did this.)
    If you have the right driver, you will see "EPSON SP R1800 (1)" as your driver in System Preferences/Print&Fax. Also, you will see "Print Settings", "Roll Paper Option", "Expansion" and "Extension Settings" as options in the pulldown menu in the epson print dialog through PS CS3 (after hitting print in the first print dialog box). There is also a "basic" and "Advanced" choice under Print Settings.
    If you still have the wrong driver, you won't get any errors, but the new dialog box won't show up. The old driver that doesn't work shows up (I think I remember correctly) as EPSON SPR 1800 in your System Preferences window. No parenthetical. Also, if you have the old bad driver, in the epson print dialog box, you see a different set of options, and no 'basic' and 'advanced' choice under print settings.
    I hope that helps some people. I was having a hard time knowing if I had the new driver actually working (even though I thought I installed it). Turns out I didn't! Thanks to random post by John McWilliams and Duane Ellison (who posted screenshot of new dialog in the LR forum), I figured out the thing with the Epson folder. Now let's just hope the prints look good!

    Hi Laura.
    Isn't that the most frustrating thing in the world? Anyway, that isn't the right driver. That is the one that ships with Leopard (or something, I don't know - anyway, wrong one).
    Try deleting the EPSON folder again, deleting your printer from system prefs/print fax, reinstalling the driver and re-finding your printer. Now that I think about it, I did that, and generally fiddled around in there a bit, before it worked.
    I don't know how Macs associate printers with drivers (I'm a PC person and missing my PC!), but once the software in the dmg package was properly installed, the printer automatically picked up the EPSON SP R1800 (1) driver when I told it to go look for printers. I didn't have to choose it from the list of drivers.
    Hope that helps.

  • Nokia Connectivity Cable driver problem (Nokia 311...

    I have an unlocked Nokia 3110 Classic with 2 GB MicroSD Nokia MU-37 memory card. On my PC operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 3. For connection with PC I use an original Nokia DKE-2 USB 2.0 data cable. My problem is when I install any version (from 6.5 to the latest 7.0) of Nokia PC Suite with Nokia Connectivity Cable driver or separatly this driver first and then Nokia PC Suite I got a problem under Device Manager with two devices that have yellow exclamation (saying: The drivers for this device are not installed.(Code 28).To reinstall the drivers for this device, click Reinstall Driver). They are under Modems: Nokia 3110 Classic USB modem, and under Ports (COM & LPT): Unknown device. This unknown device and also Nokia 3110 Classic USB modem (with yellow !) is present when I connect my phone and PC with USB cable and when I choose Standard Nokia mode. I tried to solve this problem on many ways (unsuccesful) following NOKIA instalation instructions and troubleshooter. When I try to install (or reinstall) a driver for this two problematic devices with Hardware Update Wizard choosing Windows Update or any other way (automatic - recommended or another) at the end I got this message: 1. Windows can't install modem with two answers: YES or NO, if I click YES, there is a new message: A service installation section in this INF is invalid. If I click NO at the first message the window of Hardware Update Wizard is just closed with no other messages !
    So please if anyone here knows (or had this problem before and solve it) how to solve this problem, help me, because I am desperate.
    I'll be grateful for any help !

    In this attachments are pictures (screenshots) of my problems (in .bmp format): screenshot of Device Manager on my PC, Unknown device in Device Manager,Nokia 3110 Classic USB Modem in Device Manager and Windows XP Professional SP3.
    You'll see that I use on my Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 some Vista themes. So, don't think that this is some "fake Service Pack 3", this is the real Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 3 (last and official, not release candidate) downloaded from Microsoft Web site, but I use some Vista Customization Desktop Tools or something like that, I don't know exactly the name of this program, but that program install Vista themes that I like.
    P.S. This attachments are pictures in .bmp format but I added a .txt extension because this forum only except files with .log, .txt, .bat, and .xml extensions, so if you are going to save and open it on your PC please remove .txt extension. If not, just click on it.

  • M-Audio Delta 1010LT driver problems with 10.4.6

    I'm having problems with the M-Audio drivers for my Delta 1010LT sound card under 10.4.6. Specifically, I'm getting frequent kernel panics if I try to play sound through the card when I boot up in the morning after the computer has been shut down during the night. I've tried using not only the current version of the Delta driver (2.0.5), but also 2.0.4, 2.0.3, and 2.0.1.
    Recently, after being very frustrated with this problem, I requested and received a replacement card from the vendor, since both I and M-Audio Tech Support suspected that I might have a defective card. I have to admit that there seems to be some progress. At least for the time being, I have a working setup for Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1 with driver version 2.0.5 and Mac OS 10.4.6. However, I'm finding that I'm still experiencing frequent kernel panics if I try to play sound through the card (any sound application causes a problem, not just PTMP) when I boot up my computer in the morning. (BTW, I probably wouldn't have this problem if the driver would allow my computer to sleep! But that's another story . . .)
    I do have a workaround (at least, it seems to be a workaround, though my past experience leads me to believe that it could cease to be one at any moment): immediately upon starting up, I reinstall the driver. Then everything seems to be OK—unless the system freezes (which it does frequently, and which it didn't before I installed the 1010LT), in which case more often than not I get a kernel panic upon rebooting and have to install the driver again.
    Since when it does work, it works very well, I don't think that the problem is with my machine. (I've tried switching slots several times, which does not seem to have an effect.) But something is still clearly not right.
    BTW, through a process of trial and error, I've determined that there seems to be a conflict, at least on my system, between the M-Audio Delta drivers (all versions) and Intego VirusBarrier X 4 (and, I think, also ClamXav). I assume, though I can't support the assumption, that they may conflict with other anti-virus software as well. With Mac OS X viruses beginning to appear, this is a serious problem that I think should be addressed very soon!
    I'd be interested to hear if other users with Delta 1010LT cards have had similar problems under 10.4.6. I've seen a large number of such items involving 10.4.3 and 10.4.4, but there appear to be few reports of such difficulties with 10.4.6.
    MDD dual 1.25 GHz Power Mac   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I finally gave up and ordered a Firewire 410, which works beautifully. Too bad that I wasted $200 on a card that I couldn't use, but . . .

  • MBP Hard Drive Problem (Again)

    My MBP is going back to the Geniuses for a HD problem for the 3rd time tomorrow, since I bought it in July. I am confused about exactly what is happening, and I would like any advice anyone might have about salvaging any of my data.
    (The first two times, I brought it in because the HD died. The first time, they told me they had replaced the HD, though they hadn't. They ran diagnostics, decided it did not need to be replaced after erasing my data, and then gave it back to me. I brought it back the next day [t died that night as I was reinstalling] and they replaced the HD in about a day.)
    Everything got really slow this weekend and I had "index" and "database" problems in my mail.app (twice), and my iTunes (twice). Now, the replacement HD has disappeared when I tried to reinstall the system software/repair the disk in disk utility.
    This is the chronology:
    I have had this hard drive for 3 weeks, installed at the local apple store to replace my factory-installed dead hard drive.
    On Friday, my mail app stopped working. After diagnosing the error message (thanks to this forum), I learned that the index file was corrupted, so I reinstalled the index.
    On Saturday, my iTunes said it couldn't read my iPod, so I restored my iPod, erasing all of my data (music, calendars, contacts, important documents). I continued to get the same error message.
    Today, I restored it again, but I still couldn't get iTunes to write more than 2 gb of information (of the 20 gb of data). At that point, I decided I would have to send my iPod in for repairs and stopped trying.
    8 hours later, I got an error message that said the iTunes index was corrupted. I started to put the music back in to iTunes, but the MBP kept kept freezing.
    I restarted the machine and received the blinking questionmark. I put in my system installation disks to run disk utility and, if need be, reinstall my system software.
    This is where it gets interesting:
    Disk Utility can see the topline Disk Description and the SMART status is verified. But the name of the disk itself is wrong and the mount point says it is unmounted. The capacity is correct, but under everything from owners enabled to number of files and space available, there is just a dash.
    Unlike my previous hard drive problem, there is no clunking, and the hard drive appears to be working. Disk Utility found the following: Invalid B-tree node size. The volume needs to be repaired. Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit. 1 HFS volume checked: volume needs repair. And that's it.
    My questions are:
    1. What is happening to my hard drive?
    2. Is it dead or is there any way to fix it?
    3. Is there any way to salvage my data? (Because of my iPod failure, I lost my calendars, contacts, important data from my last big back up 3 weeks ago, not to mention my carefully curated music collection. I have my documents backed up to gmail, but not my notes, which were on my iPod.)
    4. Does it sound like an internal hardware problem or is it really just two bum hard drives (from two different manufacturers) in a row?
    MacBook Pro 2.16 ghz Intel Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    In case anyone receives a series of index problems which escalate into apparent hard drive failure and blinking question mark of doom . . .
    the Geniuses fixed the computer by doing a complete wipe of my hard drive.
    They said that the directory error may have existed from before my last hard drive was installed, but I am not certain how such a thing could exist.
    Because it was a directory error, I lost all of my data on the hard drive, but I was able to take the machine home with me within an hour. Since the erase and reinstallation, my computer is running much, much faster, and seemingly cooler, but that may just be my relief at having a working machine back.

What's wrong? Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Please also check Event Viewer if it identify this problem.
    In addition, also check Device Manager, if similar driver already installed, try to uninstall them and reinstall new driver again for test.
