Qosmio X300-13P issues of Win 7 64bit upgrade

Hi,
I've upgraded X300-13P up to Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
Since the model somehow not in the Qosmio X300 models list (why???), I found all needed drivers (win7 64 bit, russian) using laptop s/n and drivers filter.
Now laptop works.
Issues (please, help to resolve some of it):
The Fn buttons don't work it was installed

Game Console launches only after deleting a driver "HID Miscosoft eHome transiver" or something like this.
Unfortunately, it is automatically created after reboot.
How to delete the "eHome" at all - I'm not sure if my laptop has the device?
It's impossible to register fingers - after I agree to save the scanned fingers software write "Such templates already exist..." and does nothing.

I upgrade memory from 2x2Gb on 2x4Gb (bought in a Toshiba shop with a consultant - DDR3-1066M), but performance decreased - on Vista it was "5,4 Windows", now - "4,5 Windows".
The "bottleneck" - operations with numbers (sorry - I translate from russian: probably not accurately).
What should I do to increase?
Please, advise.

Hi *PauPau*,
thanks for the answer.

It's not clear: what does mean "L500 series" - soft, say, for the "Satellite L500-ST2521" is applicable for Qosmio X300? Any model???
And only Flash card for "L500", but native VAP for X300?

Unfortunately - the button "Disable" is disabled for the driver. :(

OK - I'll try.
Thanks a lot!

Apple iPod USB Device driver issue on Win XP - syncing shuffle 2nd gen.

Hello fellow iPod shuffle users. Any of you run into this problem using the following configurations? Any advise/recommendations/workarounds much appreciated as I've burned 3 days on this issue and I'm still stonewalled.
I personally think it's a device driver issue/bug and am searching for a way to update my Apple iPod USB device driver for Win XP. Two brand new ipod shuffles (received for Christmas 2008) are both behaving this way, so the problem most likely points to a global software issue more-so than to shuffle hardware issue.
PROBLEM STATEMENT: Driver data i/o streaming issue does not allow shuffle to sync data with iTunes after initial sync (i.e. reading the content of the shuffle is good, but writing modified content fails). Posted error message "The ipod ... cannot be synced. Required disk cannot be found". After cracking the hood on my device driver, the problem seems to point to the Apple iPod USB device driver for Win XP. Driver will recognize the shuffle and read to it, but subsequent write attempts will result in device driver balks that "this device cannot start (code 10)".
ATTEMPTED WORKAROUNDS:
*Read All "How to Get Started Manuals" to make sure I was using the right technique for syncing my two shuffles from within iTunes... tried and failed
*Ensure only one shuffle was plugged in at a time (saw notice that two shuffles plugged in at the same time is not yet a supported config)... tried and failed
*The 5 R's as recommended by Apple Support... tried and failed.
*I've tried all 3 built in USB ports on my Lenovo T60. no love... tried and failed.
*Per discussion board: From Window's Device Manager-> Scaned for new hardware while shuffle was syncing...tried and failed.
* Per Discussion board: From Window's Disk Management -> Ensured shuffle came up as a FAT32 filesystem... connection tore down as quickly as windows recognized it.... tried and failed.
*From Windows Software config utility: Ran repair to re-install itunes 8... same results.
*From Windows software management utility: Uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 8... same results.
Hardware: IBM Thinkpad/Lenovo T60. Using build in k/b & no external mouse. Has 3 USB built in ports.
Software: Windows XP Pro SP2/iTunes 8.0.2/shuffle (2nd gen) driver 1.0.4 (same behavior using the original driver 1.0.3).
Apple iPod USB Device properties:
Driver Provider - Microsoft
Driver Date - 7/1/2001
Driver Version - 5.1.2535.0
Digital Signer - Microsoft Windows Publisher

Hi. Ive got pretty much the same problem.... Got a new shuffle for christmas..having real problems syncing with itunes. Funnily enough I managed to get 25 tracks on it but then it just stopped. error message says " The ipod shuffle cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found." Ive done restore, and downloaded a reset utility thingy to try but still no joy.

Thinkpad T43p (2668-G4G) Network Controller and Biometric Coprocessor issues on Win XP Pro install

Hi all,
I am new the the forum but I guess its time time to recognise my defeat and send out a distress signal: Mayday Mayday Mayday...
INTRO
My original HDD (Hitachi 7,200 rpm IDE) crashed a few days ago so I repaced it with a WD 160GB drive (5,400 rpm). I always get a firmware message on start up and I could only partition 130GB (not the full 160GB). This I have read from various forums is a common problem with the Thinkpads and that it wont really affect the performance of my T43p... any comments?
THE REAL PROBLEM
I then restored the laptop with Win XP Pro and SP2+SP3 and all relevant updates (I have done this on numerous times and once before with this T43p without problems) and then setup all the Lenovo Drivers I could find pertaining to this model [2668-G4G]. I've got everything up and running EXCEPT the Wifi. I've tried everything but just cant get it to work. I used System Update, I tried downloading and installing in different order, I've removed the Access Connections etc. etc. None of the Drivers on the Lenovo website seem to work for me. I even tried using older versions of the Drivers, which I compiled on a CD last time I restored my T43p but even that doesn't work. When I check the Device Manager there are always two yellow alert signes referring to Biometric Coprocessor and Network Controller.
Has anybody had these problems before and managed to resolve them?
The HDD issue is not as crucial I guess but if anybody has a solution to that I'd be greatful.

Satellite R630 - Driver issues on Win 7 64bit after SP1 upgrade

Need your help here guys,
My Satellite R-630 is less than a year old, running a Windows 7 Home Premium on 64 bit. For a while, I have been experiencing BSOD's, which I traced through the Event Viewer to here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd337789(WS.10).aspx
This did not lead me far enough.
Finally, I concluded through other forums that the SP1 upgrade would solve some of the annoying BSOD issues and I launched the download and upgrade. However, on restart, while my laptop seems to have been cured (so far) of the BSOD's, I have issues with drivers for:
- Sound Card
- USB Controllers
- DVD Player
- Webcam
- Bus Enumerators
I have downloaded the indicated Win 7 - 64 bit drivers in each case. I tried installing them first. Nothing happened. I uninstalled the existing drivers, and installed them again. Nothing happened again.
I figured I must be doing things in the wrong order.
So I tried installing
1). the Chip Set Utility (drivers?) first, then
2). the USB drivers
3). Sound card drivers etc.
Nothing is happening still.
I am running out of ideas here.
P.S While all the other drivers executed fine when I extracted them from the .zip format, the Sound card driver refused to execute, even though the "run command" box was ticked when the .msi file was run.
I extracted it into a folder and ran it manually.
Still didn't help.

That's where I got things wrong I think. I did not use the windows automatic update, because it kept saying connection was unsuccessful.
What happened is it identified a component of the SP1 as a "critical update", a 900 mb chunk (listed as windows6.1-KB976932-X64.exe here: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5842 ) but would not download it. It failed every time. So I went on the windows download centre, looked up for the same component and installed it manually. Right now windows update turned green with the tick and says everything is fine.
I will try to restore my settings to the former configuration and let you know. I was about to try that last night, but I didn't see any restore date prior to the SP1 installation. I'll try this right now.
--*Edit:* So system restore isn't working. There is only one restore point that's prior to the SP1 installation. I've tried 3 times already. Every time it tells me that it could not access a file, probably because of antivirus. I use Avira. I disabled it the second time. Still same message. I uninstalled it completely for the 3rd trial, same message again.--
--So system restore isn't an option. Could it be that I missed a component that would be required for some drivers to work properly after the update?--
*Edit*: In all my troubles, I forgot an elementary step: run system restore in Safe Mode. Which I did. Now my system is back to before SP1, sound, usb connectivity working. I suppose everything is back where it should be. I'll just wait and see if i get a BSOD again and come back here if need be.
Thanks guys.

Issues with Win 7 & CS2. Illustrator and Photoshop have "Stopped Working"

Hi, New to this so I apologize in advance. Bought a new computer in December '09. 6gig quad processor and plenty of 500gigs of disc space. NOt a Memory Issue! Installed CS2 ( 'cause the computer took all of my money!) and all worked fine until 4 days ago. I mainly use illustrator and photoshop. When I tried to save a document... The programs simply "Stopped Working" I'm a rookie with the tech stuff so please speak slowly and simply.... I would appreciate any help as I'm losing money and work right now! Thanks

CS2 is totally unsupported under Win 7. And if you have 6 gigs of RAM I'll guess that it's a 64 bit system which simply adds to the complexity.
Sorry, but the best advice you'll get is to upgrade.

[Solved] Issue installing wine from the official repositories.

I'm trying to install wine, but upon running
$ sudo pacman -S wine
it returns
error: target not found wine
and If I try PlayOnLinux with
$ sudo pacman -S playonlinux
it returns
warning, cannot resolve "wine", a dependency of playonlinux
Wine should still be in the official repositories, and my research has turned up nothing for this issue. Actually I'm not even sure if this is happening to anyone other than me?
Thanks,
Shane
P.S.
I'm new to the forums, so hopefully I posted this properly, and in the right place.

Multicast issue with Win XP

          I am wondering if anyone else has encountered Multicast problems with Windows XP.
          I think I am, and believe these issues are preventing the servers in my clusters
          from syncing their JNDI tree bindings.
          I noticed this while configuring a JMS Server and Queues in a clustered development
          environment. It is a simple cluster of 2 servers both on a single Win XP machine,
          see post 14712 in weblogic.developer.interest.jms (http://newsgroups2.bea.com/cgi-bin/dnewsweb?cmd=article&group=weblogic.developer.interest.jms&item=14712&utag=).
          I tried the MultiCast test utility (http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/admin_ref/utils.html#1199798)
          and found what I think means I have a multicast problem. Output follows:
          ------ Begin MultiCast test utility output: ------
          C:\bea\weblogic81\server\lib>java -cp weblogic.jar utils.MulticastTest -N server200

          I (server200) sent message num 11
          ------ End MultiCast test utility output: ------
          I expected to see "Received message X from server200" messages, like I saw from
          the Win2K machines I tried.
          There is a Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 827536, "An IP multicast may not
          be sent correctly from Windows XP or from Windows Server 2003" (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;827536).
          The issue appears to be limited to computers with more than one network adapter
          (like I have). I am pursuing the hotfix from Microsoft, but these things take
          time.
          Anyone else having similar issues?
          Any and all help is appreciated.


          I am facing a problem and believe that its because of multicast too. The problem
          is seen on XP but not on W2000.
          The MulticastTest when executed does not show any message exchange at all. When
          a server is started I get following exception

No soa_server1 ???? Oracle SOA Suite 11g config issue on WIN 7 64 bit

Hello guys.
Happy new year. Here is the first Oracle SOA Suite 11g issue I met in this new decade:
While I tried to install Oracle SOA Suite 11g on my new win 7 home Premium, after all installation done, I found there was no "soa_server1" under new created domain(path C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domain\servers) with just Admin server only - i have done similar install/config on win vista 32bit before everything was fine. I found following lines in the log(C:\Oracle\Middleware\logs\wlsconfig_20110102233019.log):

Log in issues with Win 8.1 lap top and Android dev...

To say that I'm annoyed is an understatement. First off was the issue that just surfaced with Skype on my laptop and PC. I would be logged into Skype and then for no reason it would shut down, not crash but shut down as though I closed it myself. I tried two wi-fi networks I have access to and it happened on both. Then I installed skype on a desk top and it happened again. Sometimes it would fire up and immediately shut down. Eventually I found a solution on line by unlinking my windows 8 account to Skype and the problem stopped happening. My belief is Windows forced an update on Skype that linked it to my MS account without telling me. Thanks MS, that was really unhelpful and it took me a week to fix.
Then I have tried logging into Skype on my Android phone, 10 inch tablet and Kindle HDX. Cannot connect to Skype, try entering some rediculously long code they email me but nada, it wont connect. What on earth is going on here as it used to work fine before MS got hold of Skype.

Problem solved as the issue was to do with the microsoft account. Ever since Windows 8 I've had many issues on other peoples laptops and my own just because Microsoft want you to have your Skype account linked into your windows account. Previously I've re-installed Skype from scratch in Win 7 type mode and solved the problem and with my Skype which I'd re-installed. I had to unlink it from my Microsoft account.
Clearly and unbeknown to me, Microsoft must have linked it during an update of Skype and that caused Skype to close immediately it had launched. Unchecked the link in Skype and problem solved. Why cant MS leave things alone if they aint broke !!!!!!

Issues sharing win 7 drive over network to mac

Hi guys,
So i installed a new hard-drive in my HTPC today running win 7. All has been going fine until i attempted to share the drive, all appears to have been set-up correctly on the windows side (enabled sharing on the drive etc)
However when i attempt to connect to the drive it comes up with a message saying:
Connection failed
You do not have permission to access the server 192.168........etc
I have two drives that i am trying to share over this network, the first one has been shared for about 6 months and has been working fine, my mac can see it and get files off of it perfectly. I can still connect to this drive now aswell.
It's just this new drive thats causing the issues. Im trying to connect using a registered user
Any ideas, thanks.

X-Fi unit issues with Win 7

I have a SB X-fi Xtreme unit in my system. It was running XPsp3 and ran just fine. Upgraded to Win 7 home premium. Now some video files have issues with the sound tracks but music seems to be okay. Itunes seems to play my music just fine (although a couple of things may be boarderline - hearing sux LOL). I can't narrow it down to any particular video type since it happens on FLV, MPG, MOV and other extensions. VLC and MS MP both show these issues. Playing stuff on Youtube and elsewhere acts up. I am running the creative 8/3 release 5.2..208. I went to the website and tried the dri've upgrade available ?but it errors out saying that it does not find a device. I also installed various codecs since I figured that might be a cause. Any help is welcome. BTW I am running 32bit.
EDIT
I have also downloaded both:
XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0000.exe and
XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe
version 0000 gives me a message that it'scould not find a?device type?error and closes
version 0090 didn't complete (I waited 5 minutes and there was no disk activity - task manager said it was working) under normal mode
I then ran 0090 under XP sp3?compatibility and got a 'driver not found' error.

CS2 is totally unsupported under Win 7. And if you have 6 gigs of RAM I'll guess that it's a 64 bit system which simply adds to the complexity.
Sorry, but the best advice you'll get is to upgrade.

CS3 install issues in win 7 32 bit

I have a licensed copy of CS3 design premium. I installed on my desktop no issues. License permits me to install on a laptop as well for portable use as long as I don't use them at the same time. CS3 will not install on my 32bit window 7 system. The install looks like it goes fine and then at the end it says shared componets installed....there are red X's by all other applications like photoshop, dreamweaver, etc.
Why in the world will it install on one windows machine and not the other? Both are new computers.
Thanks.

We need much more info than just such generic and vague statements. Okay, we know about Win 7, but we know nothing about the rest - hardware specs, disk layout. And it would help to have at least some basics from the install logs.

RDweb 2012 excel jump list issue for win 7

Hello All,
I am installing win 2012 server RDweb test lab. everything working perfect but Excel 2010 jump list now showing up on client side (win 7 Embedded thin client) remaining all office application Jump list working perfectly.
I tried to clear recent jump list but nothing is happen.
Could you please help me to resolve.
Thanks.

Hi Sunil,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
For Excel jump list issue you can try below suggestion as it may get your issue resolved (Quoted from below articles).
Jump List...that is corrupted in AutomaticDestinations-hidden system folder is the likely solution.. To resolve and fix the issue, follow these steps:
1. Open Windows Explorer .
2. Type or copy and paste the following into the address bar:
%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
3. Identify files that are comparatively larger in size than the rest of the file, such as files that have file size of 1 MB or more.
Delete the abnormal file.
Tip: If you do not want to retain the Jump Lists’ recent items history on all applications, just delete all the automaticDestinations-ms files in the folder.
4.The recent items functionality on Jump Lists will be restored. The recent items on the Jump Lists will be re-added as the program is been used. However, do note that the solution does not restore the previously pinned items. So user will have to pin new
items again.
