ATIKMDAG AND VISTA UPGRADE

Hello everyone  I have had this card for 2 months now and had nothing but problems here and their. at a start of a game my screen goes black and then the games comes on and it runs fine  but when i exit the game i have a ATIKMDAG error saying the "display driver has stopped responding but successfully recovered"  I did mem test on my box everything is working fine  it cant be getting to hot and i got updated drivers. Is it a bad card?
also  i want to update my box with Vista 64 but when i run the Upgrade adviser tool to tell me if it would work with all my stuff it says this "
ATI Radeon HD 3800 Series    then manufacturer  ATI Technologies INC  then it says this " This device will not work in Windows Vista. For more information, please go to the device manufacturer's website, Windows Marketplace or contact your retailer
when u look on newegg it says it supports it lol

Ok i installed Vista ultimate 64bit  and have installed the 8.7 drivers (64bit) for it as well
I personaly think it is a bad card but i could be wrong here is the error that windows gives me after the crash  it also does it when it comes out of sleep mode.
I dont have a copy of xp the only copy i have is from my xps dell so i can't use it lol

  • BEFW11S4 v.4 and Vista - firmware upgrade failures

    Hello
    I have had this router for about 5 years, running it with XP with no problems. Ever since I got a new laptop with Vista, the wireless connects for an hour or so and then drops out and I have to unplug the router for five seconds and re-plug in order to reconnect (my other laptop with XP doesn't have this problem).
    I understand that there are compatibility issues between the BEFW11S4 v. 4 and Vista so I tried to upgrade the firmware from linksys.com and kept getting a failed message. I hard rebooted the router but holding in the restart button for 30 seconds, and the upgrade still failed. So I re-set the factory settings through the router's online admin function, re-downloaded the upgrade and still got the failed emssage (I am certain that the model & version number is correct and I'm downloading the correct firmware upgrade).
    Is there anything else I can do other than a) buy a new router; b) live with teh drop-outs; c) remove Vista and go back to XP?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you have any Firewall or Antivirus installed on your computer, you can disable it and after this try upgrading the firmware of your router. It if still dosent work then you can try it from some other computer and try it again.If it still the same problem then i think you can Press and hold the reset button for 1 minute...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 1 minute and re-connect the power cable...Now again you can try upgrading the firmware of your router. 

  • Vista upgrade and XP full version, what can I do?

    I would like to install Vista on a new bootcamp (snow leopard on mac mini), but my copy of Vista is an upgrade. I have a full version of XP, and an upgrade version of Vista. Do I have to install XP first, or can I use the upgrade and just pop in the XP disc when it prompts?  I have done this with another PC that had a full 98 and an upgrade XP, but that wasnt a mac. I also am concerned since I may upgrade to Lion very soon, and dont have the money to get both lion and win 7, that I will be stuck if I try to do a clean install of Lion, I may lose the ability to run bootcamp with my current Windows discs.
    Thanks for any help,
    Ken

  • Firefox mage quality and resolution was superb when I used XP and Vista. Now that I have Windows 7, however (with the Firefox 3.6.3 version), the image quality and resolution is poor. Please help me!

    I am using the Firefox 3.6.3 version with my new Windows 7 operating system. When I used all the previous Firefox versions in my XP and Vista operating systems, image quality and resolution was excellent! However, now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.3, the image quality and resolution is poor (unacceptable for downloading purposes).
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I first activated my new computer and installed the Firefox 3.6.3.

    All my images are pixelated in firefox 3.6.3
    http://www.dcgdcreative.com
    Not only on my site but on most sites I view.
    The issue is not solved by resetting the zoom text view (ctrl+0)
    The issue is not resolved by starting in safemode with add-ons disabled
    The problem seems to only affect .jpeg files and only on Windows 7 on my desktop; as I have viewed several sites using windows XP with my laptop, no issues.
    I had the same issue with IE8 and was able to fix the problem with by setting up the compatibility view for all sites. Issue fixed no problems at all. But nothing similar for firefox?
    Whats the deal?

  • Vista Upgrade - No Longer Synchs Files iTunes to iPod Nano

    What a nightmare - iTunes/iPod worked beautifully with XP - but when I upgraded to Vista it stopped synchronising all my files onto my iPod. Some files says "I am not authorised to use on this computer". Tried to re-authorise but iTunes (despite recognising my my iTunes account to re-set password) then said I had to set up a new account. As well as not synching stuff I have purchased on iTunes it also is not synching audio MP4 files I have bought from Audiable Books despite before Vista upgrade always seemlessly synched with iPod. This is totally ruining my experience with iPod - so before I throw it out of my window please help me get my iTunes and iPod synching properly so I can play the music I have purchased and books. HELP HELP yours very frustrated!!!!

    Please be patient, sync issues are time consuming, if you are lucky, just a Hard Rest and Restore will solved it.
    Ok Software Version 1.1.2.
    So you can see all your 10,000 songs, in the new PC iTunes, and do you have any problem syncing the iPod using iTunes 10.5.3.3 on the old computer?
    Can you do a Hard Reset  as below
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    On your iTunes please reset alert warnings, so that we can see the errors.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2527?viewlocale=en_US
    We need to see what problems iTunes is having
    Then connect your iPod to the new PC and sync again.
    Have a nice day!

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Full Version and VISTA Service Pack 2

    I have brought CS4 Full and recall seeing VISTA Service Pack 1 as requirement.  I keep getting prompted by my computer to download and install Service Pack 2.  What to do:
    1.  Install Photoshop on current setup (SP 1) and then upgrade to SP 2
    2.  Install SP 2 and then load Photoshop
    Thanks for any insight.

    SP2 is very stable, uses less ram, and also less hard drive space. If you have not installed CS4 yet just do the SP2 update then CS4. Don't forget to update CS4 to 11.0.1.
    Also either way you want to install works. I installed SP2 with PS CS4 on the system and there were no problems running CS4 afterwards.

  • Official release of XP and Vista drivers for Satellite Pro P100-465 PSPAEE

    When will the drivers be available for both XP and Vista for the PSPAEE? Currently there are drivers for the PSPA4E some of which work, some not, on either operating system. Yes the laptop is preinstalled with the Vista Ugrade and the drivers work but two of the driver apps are blocked by Defender (NDSTRay / ConfigFree and VolControl). I could get no options to enable these (unclassified as yet from MS so they are locked out) I was told to disable Defender by tech-support!
    I have tried a clean install of my own version of Vista Business and had driver problems with that as well.
    I would like to run XP until Vista is, shall we say, more efficient but would like to use drivers specifically for it so a time-frame would be very useful.
    I'd also like to know why there is a plug where a finger-scanner could go underneath the 0 of the number-pad, and a blocked-off lower PCMCIA (PCI-E?) port when neither of these are available as upgrade options? Did I miss those upgrade options or is this a case recycled from another model where they are available? If the latter then that's pretty cheap for a new machine :)

    The Toshiba USA site offers comprehensive information on Vista upgrade and drivers for P100/105 machines which include similar ones to those released in the UK/Europe. If you want to be at the bleading edge of technology/take a chance see

  • Acrobat 7.0 Pro and VISTA

    Just FYI,
    Acrobat 7.0 Pro does not work with Vista. It will continually ask for re-activation even though it is activated the first (and subsequent) times.
    This is not a complaint. Acro 7.0 preceded (and was never intended for) Vista. Just thought it would be helpful to have this fact clear (to avoid calling customer support and being told on the SECOND call that this is the case).
    Will definitely upgrade to Acro 8 or 9. Acrobat is an invaluable tool.

    You may get a few responses. A few have apparently been successful with AA7 and VISTA, but I am not sure of the stability of such installations. You might want to provide a few more details of what you have run into, installation process, and such, so that they might answer. I think your data may be adequate, but if you have more it would help. The upgrade is likely a good idea in any case.

  • Problems with Vista upgrade on Moduslink

    'COA invalid', 'Irrecoverable Error', 'Alert not Implemented'... these are kind of messages I get from Moduslink. I'm not expecting to reply my emails since they are in neck-deep.
    I love my A100 SAA9E, a very stable and powerful machine. I'm from London and have selected all the right options, but it would either come up with a random COA prob, or an error after my penultimate step.
    What can I do? Help.
    Shawn

    I was unable to complete the Vista upgrade via the Moduslink on Toshiba's website http://wwww.toshiba-europe.com/vista-upgrade, even though I got to paying for the upgrade with my credit card. When my payment was being processed I got an 'unrecoverable error', so I went back to repeat the process and this time the site didn't recognize my COA on the bottom of the laptop.
    I contacted Moduslink via the following Tel No. 00800 666 44 666 (UK) and spoke to one of their support staff (choose options 5 and then 8). There is a problem with their site excepting payments from credit or debit cards. The representative reset my COA, but it takes 48 hours for it to clear (so much from electronic data communications to servers). I have been told to retry the upgrade process again on Friday 16/02/2007, however, this time to pay either by wireless transfer from my bank or send a cheque.
    Hopefully, this will help others who were frustrated with the Vista upgrade debacle. It would be more appropriate however, if the company concerned, Modulink, resolved the issue in the 1st place. Firstly by informing their customers that there was an issue, secondly on a work around to the problem and finally fixing the problem. Will commonsense ever prevail?

  • Vista upgrade on 24" imac to play Halo 2?

    Hi,
    Ijust tried posting in the Windows section but the site is down so i'll post here if that's ok?
    I have a full version of Windows XP installed on my 24" imac and it runs fine.
    I now hve a Windows Vista upgrade disc and was wondering if i can use this disc to properly upgrade to Vista or do i need a full version?
    Also i want to play Halo 2 and was wondering if anyone has this game running ok on an imac?
    All the windows games i have installed in XP work fine (exept fo King Kong for some reason) and i don't want to upgrade to Vista for Halo at the expence of my other games if it does'nt work.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply. I don't have anything running. I installed World of Warcraft basically right out of the box. I love Apple but it doesn't look like they've put a lot of effort into the gaming community. Even looking at the Mac Pro there are only a couple of graphic card options and they are old when considering graphic card evolution. The aluminum iMac is only a couple of months old and it comes with the HD 2600 which is rapidly headed towards the low end value market. ATI is already in the 3800 series (HD 3850 & 3870) and NVIDIA is in the 8800 series. Neither of these series are supported on the Mac Pro to the best of my knowledge. My wish would be that Apple give us gamers a little more attention. It's a big market and worth the effort. Sadly for now it looks like my beautiful iMac will have to be delegated to work detail (word processing, e-mail, finances, etc.) and my XP system will be for fun and games. (Wow! That's a reverse on the PC vs. Mac commercials.) Thanks!

  • ITunes 7.7 and Vista

    Hi,
    just moved my library to a Vista computer. I used backup/restore and it went well, however I had more than 1000 Podcasts before and deleted them for the move. Now I want to put them back and Vista is shutting iTunes down, whenver it "touches" Harvard Business Ideacast Episode 1.Itunes is performing "Analysis ... to adjust volume" and if I cancel it before it starts iTunes works, if I let it go it get's shut down by Vista with the message to upgrade iTunes to a newer version (not possible - it's the latest!)

    It tells me to do the same thing when I try to download the songs I just bought from the iTunes store! I started having problems AFTER downloading v7.7!!! Help us apple, something is wrong.

  • Tried to use Iphoto and was told I needed upgrade. Try to install upgrade . Upgrade should take an hour if photo library is large. It's now close to three hours and still upgrading.  Can't use Iphoto and don't want to stop if still upgrading...3hours??

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • Best Practice: SAPGUI Version and Patch Upgrades

    Hello -
    Does anyone have some thoughts/information on best practices relating to SAPGUI version and patch upgrades.
    Obviously, sometimes upgrades are forced upon us (e.g. 7.10 for Vista) and in other cases it may just be considered "nice to have".
    Either way - it always signifies regression test and deployment effort.  How do we balance the benefit and cost?
    Thanks, Steve

    Hi Steve,
    you're right for the first part, yes, we (usually) patch twice a year.
    Now for the rest
    An uninstall will only happen on release changes (6.20->6.40->7.10), i. e. about every 4-5 years as SAP releases them.
    Patches are applied to the installation server and the setup on the client will only update changed program parts. For example, upgrading 6.40->7.10 took about 10 minutes (incl. uninstall), applying patch 1 less than 5 minutes.
    I recommend, you read the "SAP Frontend Installation Guide - 7.10" which you find at SMP alias sapgui. Navigate to  Media Library - Literature. It explains setup of the installation server (sounds like a big thing, but ain't much more than creating a share), creating packages, applying updates etc.
    Peter
    Points always appreciated

  • FrameMaker 8 and WMFs (and Vista)

    I don't have any clue what is going on but I have been using FrameMaker 8 since the start and as soon as I upgraded to Vista SP1 I've seen something that doesn't make sense.
    A little history...
    For vector drawings I (like most of you) use Microsoft Visio 2003 for vector drawings. The best consistent quality output I've found without rasterizing is to export as WMF (not EMF) and import as a File relative WMF file. Without any need for scaling, under Windows XP SP2 all vector art rendered successfully.
    The issue...
    I recently updated to FM 8 Build 273 (that WAS interesting, jeez) and also upgraded to Windows Vista Ultimate SP1. Everything runs quite well (contrary to other forum discussions) but the WMF graphics are too large by about 20%. I have to know scale everything to 80%. Crap. What is really odd is that the original artwork is rendered fine under FM 8 and if I simply re-export under Visio again (under Windows Vista) and re-import it in FM 8 I have to re-scale the images between 75 and 80%.
    Is anyone else seeing this? It almost feels like Windows Vista has changed its WMF format. In fact I did a file compare and the files (generated under Windows XP SP2 compared to Windows Vista Ultimate SP1) are exactly the same EXCEPT some of the content is different! (I think EMF gives the same problem.)
    thanks,
    Ken Whitaker

    "the original software maniac"

    Ken,
    The WMF format is not the best for use in FM as some information is
    not properly carried across (such as fonts, curves are not truly
    smooth mathematical entities, and so on). Visio's EPS export has
    always tended to be flawed, so the best quality for publishing is to
    create a PDF from Visio and then either crop and export an EPS from
    Acrobat or use the PDF directly in FM. I create the EPS in Acrobat and
    have never had any problems.
