Can't restore win 8.1 after win 10 install

I have a Yoga Tablet 2-1051f. I installed Windows 10 but just didn't like it. During installation ot created a recovery file on my SD card. I tried to revert back to windows 8.1 but after it finally rebooted, boot failed. I get error code 0xc000025. It says I need an installation disc and to PRESS THE WINDOWS KEY FOR UEFI FIRMWARE SETTINGS. Of course I can't do this because the keyboard doesn't link. Does anyone have any ideas how to recover my tablet? Thanks

Turned out it was a problem with PRAM. I reset the PRAM (holding Command + Option + P + R) after "Windows could not update the boot configuration". And ran the install disc once more and it worked!
Hope this helps somebody.

IPod Touch 5 not recognized by iTunes after Win 8 install

The heading pretty much says it all. Can anyone help? Ever since Windows 8 Pro install I have not been able to connect my iPod Touch 5th gen to iTunes.
I never had this problem with windows 7.
- I connect my iPodTouch by cable to the USB
- The computer recognizes the iPod TOuch
- I can access the iPod Touch from My Computer
- iTunes does not recognize it. It doesn't pull it up as a device. All other iTunes servies work fine.
I have...
1. The most up to date version of iTunes.
2. Restarted my computer multiple times.
3. Powered down, reset, my iPod Touch multiple times.
4. I have downloaded all computer updates recommend from my manufacturer (Asus) for Windows 8 Pro compatability

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Then see:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would try the following first

No sound after Win 7 install w/Pavillion a1430n

Hey, I've just did a full install of Windows 7 on my HP Pavillion A1430N and I've got no sound. Got the red x next to the speaker in the icon tray. I've seen while searching that loosing the sound is common with this upgrade/install, but I haven't seen my issue specifically. When I do the sound troubleshooter, it claims that the speaker/headphones are not connected. Though they are. I've connected front and back of PC using the designated jacks and have used two different sets of speakers. The device manager says that there is a sound device and that it is working properly. When I hit the tabs for more details on the driver, etc.., I get a very generic, "High Definition Audio Device", but no specifics. Says driver version 6.1.7600.16385, by microsoft. appreciate the help

Amd video drivers not working after win 10 upgrade

AMD video drivers not working after win 10 install. running on microsoft basic driver, call hp smartfriend assistance. appearently there is a fix but hp will not help unless i pay 100.00$ US because the warranty has expired on my notebook.Have a pavilion dv7 was running AMD Mobility Radeon HD5000 series. Thank you hp will not be purchasing an hp product again. Alienware here i come.

Not much we can do since your model is not supported by Toshiba for Win 10 upgrade according to THIS list so there is no Win 10 driver for your TouchPad. That button, however, is not the only way to disable/enable the TouchPad. FN+F9 does it and you can fix it where, when you plug in an external mouse, it will automatically be disabled.

Win 7 won't boot after successful (?) install

Hi Group,
Tried searching the forums for this problem and found similar postings but I think my problem is different...
I've successfuly installed Win 7 Ultimate x86 in that I get to the point of entering product key, etc. but when it does the final reboot I just get a blank screen with a blinking cursor. Tried some of the workarounds like clearing the pram/smc, deleting the ati driver .sys file (which doesn't seem to exist actually) and also using the driver autounattend from the usb drive. I'm running the latest version of boot camp.
Not sure what to try next. I've been successful installing this version of windows in VMWare and on a fujitsu-siemens laptop without any issues. I've also been successful at installing Xp via bootcamp. Really at a loss as to what to try next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jeff

*Take an iMac and Windows 7 Blue screen fun*
the final part of the Win 7 install and Mr Blue screen due to the Nividia driver supplied on Win 7 DVD kills iMac GT7300
1. Install... and Blue screen!
2.Re-boot but from the Win 7 install disk – seems to work if you hold alt on boot up and select the disk to boot from!
3.When you get into the Windows installer, click past the language selection. Then click "Repair your computer".
4.Windows will scan for installations and prompt you with a list. Select your "C" drive and click Next.
5.You should be presented with a windows titled *System Recovery Options*.
At the bottom of this list you should see +Command Prompt+.
Select the command prompt.
6.When the console opens, you can delete the offending driver using the following command:
DEL C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\NVLDDMKM.SYS
7.Close the command prompt window and click the Restart button.
This time, boot from your hard disk.
You will complete the install with no Blue screen.
Having done this go to the Nivida web site and download the GT 7 series drivers for Windows 7.
Install, re-boot and ...
+*... install Bootcamp drivers and right off your back to Blue Screen...*+
Repeat 1-7 and install newly downloaded drivers and off you go

Black/Blank Screen with Boot Camp Win 7 Install on new 27" iMac

I'm having a problem getting Windows 7 on a new 27" iMac and am familiar with the Boot Camp Windows installation process. Here's what I've done...
1. Run Boot Camp from OSX, partition the drive.
2. Insert Win 7 cd, proceed with installation.
3. Computer restarts and the 'preparing for initial setup' message displays with the Win 7 splash screen. When it switches to where it should be displaying the Win 7 desktop, the screen is black.
I can hear the Mac still running, but there's no display. It's like it's waiting for some type of user input for the intial Windows setup (haven't yet entered the key).
I've done a hard shutdown and restarted Windows with the exact same result. After reboot, I get the 'Windows was not shut down properly' message with the 3 safe mode options, where choosing either gets me the 'Windows cannot complete setup in safe mode'. And any key reboots it.
The Mac side still runs fine and holding the option key at start up gives the Mac/Win boot options.
I'm inclined to think that it's a video driver issue since the 27" is brand new. Maybe Apple used a new video card for the larger screen and haven't updated the Boot Camp drivers. I checked on ATI's site for an updated driver for the Radeon HD 4670 they say is in the new 27" model that's currently available. (not the quad core)
Is there any workaround for this? I was thinking of installing Vista instead, and upgrading to Win7 once installed, but if it's a driver thing, it would just be a long way to the same result and could have the same problem with Vista as well.
Any ideas?

I think I figured out what is happening here with the video drivers on the new iMac's and Win7. I believe it's re-directing the video to the mini display-port output when you see the screen go blank. I installed my Win7 x64 with no issues but I had an external monitor hooked up at the time and while it was installing the O/S my iMac went black but everything moved over to my external screen. Once it finished installing then everything went back to normal after a reboot.
Not sure if that helps anyone but pretty sure that's what is going on. So if you have another monitor handy, get the mini display-port adaptor from Apple and connect your external screen before you install Win7. Cheers!
P.S. If you have one of the new iMac's and want to install the latest Radeon drivers (after you have installed Win7 on your iMac), try the following. Download and install the drivers from ATI/AMD directly. They'll try to install and fail (no worries) but now the driver/install files will be unzipped into an ATI folder on your main Windows hard drive.
Now go to this site: http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php and download the tool and use the Vista instructions listed on the main page of the URL above. You shouldn't need to download the MSXML 6.0 and I don't think you need to disable the UAC stuff like they suggest for Vista (I didn't) and it works fine. UAC is not nearly as intrusive on Win7 as it is in Vista so I think that's why it worked for me and pretty sure the MSXML 6.0 is already in Win7. Once the program has modified the mobile Radeon drivers then you can run "setup" from your ATI directory and the new drivers will finally install correctly including the Catalyst Control Center. Voila! I now have 9.10 drivers up and running on my new 27" iMac and working perfectly so far.

Itunes wont open after trying to install 11.1.4??

iTunes will not open after trying to install 11.1.4 version ??

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard on both of my computers.
Some time ago, one crashed my computer and I had to reinstall the operating system and all applications.
After I had installed once Acrobat 9 Sdt in the computer, I wanted to update the software version 9.0.0 update to the same level as it was before the crash and that the other computer has version named 9.5.5.
The system for update from version 9.0.0 does not work at all. "There are no updates" listed in the dialog.
Can you advise how I get my Adobo Acrobat 9 Standard (Version 9.0.0) could be updated to the same level as the computer had before the crash.

Satellite P870 - WiFi issues after Win 8.1 upgrade

Internet through wireless is hopeless.
Maybe 3 in 10 pages will load correctly or not at all, mostly not at all.
Other wireless devices in the house are fine, as is using the Ethernet .
Checked the drivers through the device manager, says they are up to date.
However using the toshiba service station it lists 12 updates including one for the Realtek wireless driver.
The date of release definitely after the current installed version.
Trying to update through the service centre it completes and then comes up with an error message, something like process ended by the user.
Of course I never ended anything.
Any ideas/thoughts? Just uninstall 8.1?
Though I would rather not.

Hi

Cant revert back to Win 98 after Win XP

I have been running Win XP Pro on my MSI KT133a Pro mobo. Been running well, but I play Everquest. And Everqeust(EQ) does NOT like Win Xp any thing. SO, I was told to reformat and reinstall Win 98, and dual boot to WIn XP. Ok cool. So I format, and proceed to install Win 98. Well, after about 10 attempts, I cant get Win 98 to load. I get the 2nd blue install screen and i get errors saying cant write to disk, fatal exemption, you name it. So, I try Win Xp again it installls perfect. But that is not what I want. I need Win 98 back on it. So I try again, same results no go will not install. Ok, I go to antoher machine get it to install Win 98. I finally get Win 98 installed. I change back over to the MSI mobo machine (was Win XP but now, via a differnet pc trying WIN 98 on it now), i start the machine up. Cool it boots get screen welcome to windows etc, I start to load drivers. Video first, BUT, I cant get my AGP drivers to work now. PCI fine, AGP no go. I did download the latest 4.33 version of VIA 4in1 drivers from this site and I installed. Once they load, PC starts to enter a LOOP reboot after I see the Splash Win 98 screen. I cant even boot into safe mode. All I get is Splash screen, reboot, splash screen , reboot, etc etc etc.
I have taken all hardware out ther than memory, video and hard drive/cpu of and stil same problem. Only way I get win 98 installed is by using a different motherboard! What the heck??! SO, I take harddrive out, put it on another athlon machine, and oh my it loads. hmmm.. put it back on my MSI board, reboot reboot reboot.
It appears my MSI board will now only accept Win XP Pro as its OS. How can this be? How can I fix the board to forget Win XP was ever on it? Any of you out there have same problem? Win ME does the same thing, no go.
BTW, i HAVE reset bios, updated BIOS with newest from this site, taken battery out, unplugged machine, tried a different processor, tried 4 different harddrives, tried PCI vid, tried 3 diff AGP cards, I have run out of ideas. PLEASE help me!!!
System: Athlon XP 1900+
MSI K7 Pro2 KT133A mobo

Linksys lan card ver 5.0
Western Digital Caviar 7200 80G harddrive
Hewlet Packard 9200i CD ReWriter
Toshiba 3.5" floppy
(now these are what are noarmally in machine during the time I had Win Xp PRo on it. I have tried all kinds of different parts in this machine even changed out ram trying to get mobo to forget it was ever an XP Machine)
Please any suggs!!!!

When you fdisked the drive did you also do an fdisk /mbr
If XP is hiding anything like a boot loader it could be there.
Also try using another hard drive if you have one laying around dosent have to large just enough to install 98 on.
If you can do that then you know its something up with that hard drive as oposed to the Mobo.
Also if you can get your hands on the latest partition magic ive heard that xP does some nasty things to hard drives if you use their new formating for the drive.

How to get back installed apps after a fresh install?

I would like to start a new installation, format Macintosh HD and reinstalling Snow Leopard. From that point carry on with Lion, Mountain Lion and, eventually but not sure, Mavericks. After the new install could be problems retriving all intalled apps from Applestore?
Thanks

My imac started with Snow Leopard, then after Lion and Mountain Lion i accepted the upgrade to Mavericks and i didn't appreciate the new interface and usage of some apps, i.e. iMovie. Meanwhile, even before Mavericks, os was slowing down, but even if a bit annoying and unusual still accetable. Consider that i have installed a bunch of apps regularly purchased, mainly fom Applestore. No fancy gadgets. So, as i didn't like that much Mavericks decided to restore from Time Machine. Possibly was a mistake and now i have an enviroment i feel i can't manage. Today, for instance iDvd shut down in an unaspected way three times and then i decided to reinstall. Agree Mac is not Win and, in fact, never had such a problem, but now i need, say for my interior peace, to start from a clean situation. That's why my question, what about my actally installed apps?
Thanks

X301 missing Lenovo Thinkvantage software after OS re-instal

Hi all,
The saga of the X301 OS re-instal continues :-)
Everything is seemingly operating as a base lap top, however the lap top after the re-install does not contain it's IBM/Lenovo specific software.
Examples:
1. Thinkvantage blue button not functioning
2. Internet connection is done solely through Windows and not the IBM network connection
3. Mouse mat works but the scroll page up and across functionality has been lost
4. Sometimes when typing it shoots the cursor off down the page
I have nothing on the system (hardware) stating that it requires a driver.
Any help or assistance appreciated.
Best Regards
Liam Fassam
