Change OS while maintaining Thinkvantage software

I have a thinkpad R61 with XP.
So from the looks of it, there are two parts to this whole thinkvantage software:
1) the stuff that runs in windows - system update, fingerprint, access connections, etc.
2) the partition with recovery info that you can run by pressing the thinkvantage button during boot, before your OS boots up.
I'd like to switch from xp to vista (yes, i know its crappy, but I have business reasons), but maintain both parts of the thinkvantage technology.
The first part (1) that runs off the OS should be easy, just install the OS, go to the lenovo website and install what i need (or just install system update and let it do the rest).
The second part (2) is what stumps me. I would prefer to do a fresh install (cause upgrades just leave files here and there that take up a bunch of your hard disk space). Is there anyway I could maintain part 2 after the OS change?
It would be even better if I could upgrade the thinkpad recovery partition as well so after the os change, if I ever did a recover from the boot menu it would recover to my new OS (vista) not xp.
Any help/ideas greatly appreciated,
Thanks!

Some of the TVT software has different version from XP to Vista, so a clean install is a good way to go. Install Vista then run TVSU to grab which updates you want.
As for the recovery partition, the only way would be to recover the system using the Vista preload recovery CDs. But unless your system came with Vista originally and then downgraded to Vista, you don't have a license for Vista so legally, Lenovo can't provide the Vista recovery CDs. What I would suggest is to use Rescue and Recovery to take a base backup of your system once you get everything installed and working. That way if something happens you can return to that image as your "factory install" image.

Error While Adding a Software Component

Hi All,
While adding a software component in the SLD, i am getting the below error. Can anybody please suggest me the possible reason for the same.
Storing changes to persistence failed. Please check both your J2EE engine and database are in a healthy running state. (Error: CIM_ERR_FAILED: [NWMss][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Could not allocate space for object 'BC_SLD_CHANGELOG' in database 'X7A' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full.)
Also i would like to know what is a software unit in a SLD??

Can i perform SDK 7 Compilation while maintaining SDK6 look and feel for my App

In our organization we test the App using visual specs and our existing visual specs are aligned with SDK 6 look and feel. When i compile my app with SDK 7 the visual display of the App changes completely and is no longer in sync with the visual specs used for testing. As SDK 7 compilation is a mandate for post Feb 1 submission, is it possible to compile the code with SDK 7 while maintaining SDK 6 visual look and feel?

What i am actually trying to do is to maintain the existing SDK6 UI Look and Feel on iOS7. Apple has issued a mandate to have all Apps compiled with SDK7 for App Store submission post Feb1, 2014. If i compile with SDK7, even if i set the deployment target as iOS6, when my app runs on iOS7 it will have the new Apple's iOS7 look and feel. How can i accomplish this?

Cropping in PS while Maintaining Aspect Ratio and DPI

I shoot the Nikon D3, RAW (.NEF) and convert through ACR. Through ACR, the DPI is set to 300 DPI; the DPI caries over to Photoshop.
I crop in Photoshop using the crop tool (not marquee). To maintain 2:3 or 3:2 aspect ratios, the crop tool requires the width and height in inches or pixels. If specifying resolution, the document size will crop to that DPI, if not; the DPI is derived from pixel dimensions.
In my case, I’ve been cropping at 2in by 3in (or reverse for orientation). The resulting “real” image pixel dimensions are still very high (correct to crop size) but the document size reported in PS is 2in by 3in with a wildly high DPI. By changing the resolution back to 300 DPI through Photoshop, the document size returns to normal. Therefore the picture has not lost anything; it appears to only be a function of the Meta data. The pixel dimensions remain constant while the document size and DPI change.
It apears that you canot specify an aspect ratio via the crop tool without defining it in inches or cm. You can do it with the marquee tool but the marquee tool sucks for cropping. You can however crop in ACR with the crop tool by merely specifying the aspect ratio (not in inches or cm). In summary, the PS crop tool is based in inches or cm while the ACR crop tool is simply aspect ratio.
What I can do to crop in PS while maintaining aspect ratio and defined DPI. Is there a work-around, magic trick, or something else I can do to fool the PS crop tool into an aspect ratio not based in inches or cm?

Just to summarize:
Setting a dimensioned ratio (e.g., 2 in by 3 in for Width and Height) in the Crop tool without filling in a Resolution value yields a crop with the desired aspect ratio, and without any resampling.
There is no way to specify a ratio with the crop tool, specifically, as the OP has requested, though in a future version perhaps specifying simple numbers there without any units might be a way Adobe could facilitate this. It would be a nice addition and with little downside.
I guess what I don't understand, though, is why the OP cares about the "high" resulting dpi value? It's just a number.
Expanding on this, the Resolution is nothing but a metadata value that can be changed at will (e.g., through Image - Image Size... - uncheck Resample) at any time in the future. There is ALWAYS a Resolution value associated with the image, both before and after the crop (though the crop tool may end up changing it; so what?). In short, the Resolution is just an arbitrary figure until such time as the user wants to use the image for a purpose (e.g. printing).
Always think in terms of pixel dimensions (number of pixels horizontally and vertically) while editing, then think about dpi right before publishing. It's hard to go wrong this way.

System ask for a transport request while maintain IT0002

I'm getting strange message while maintaining IT0002 i.e system ask for a transport request. But while maintaining IT0008 or IT0009 etc it's not asking transport request. So while Diagnosis it is giving
Active integration to Organizational Management means that when a link to Organizational Management is created, it is saved automatically.
When saving organizational data, the data must be written to a transport request because, for example, the automatic transport recording is active. Without a correction request, the relevant changes in Organizational Management cannot be saved.

Check the Tcode OOCR how the swich is active or not
later check with ur basis Guy once

Errors in ThinkPad Bios and Thinkvantage Software

I have been using my ThinkPad T61 model 7664-A24 for almost 6 months now and have noticed quite a few errors in the bios and Thinkvantage software.
1. Bios:
Security>Passwords>Passphrase is grayed out and has no functionality.
2. Bios:
Security>Passwords>Password Reset Service: The instructions in the description window to the right tell us to go to 'Create Recovery Media' in Windows>ThinkVantage and set up password reset service to recover power-on or hard disk password in case of loss. However there is no such thing in Thinkvantage>Create Recovery Media.
3. Predesktop Rescue and Recovery workspace:
The documentation when you click 'Configuration Overview' relating to setting up a password to protect the Rescue and Recovery predesktop environment is wrong - Method 1 and Method 3 of creating this password in Client Security Solution and Rescue and Recovery respectively do not exist.
While these errors do not impede the functionality the ThinkPad, I wish Lenovo would tighten up the screws. I can't understand how such a big company could be so sloppy. The bios should not have any dependency on external software but here some bios functions are dependent on RnR in Windows? I've tried removing the RnR and CSS program but the bios 'Password Reset Service' option remains. I hope Lenovo issues updates to fix these errors.
I will mention more errors in the lenovo software in this thread as I find them.

T400 Thinkvantage software passkey difficulty

A room full of people with laptops can all login to a wireless network with the given password...with ease. My T400's Thinkvantage software has such a tedious bunch of options and drop-downs for the kind of wireless security that you must select, etc. that it takes up to 30 minutes to jump through all the hoops!! This is ridiculous. Do I have to remove the entire bundle of Thinkvantage software to enable the simpler Windows login? There should be a simpler auto detection to figure out which security setting is used, instead of drilling the user with all the tecnical mystery solving issues associated with a wireless netwrok. In short, this software should be transparent and just work, instead of having you spend half an hour trying to figure it out, while everyone else is already logged in. Hate the software. Is there an upgrade to it or is this another waste of time?

you mean ThinkVantage Access? or other ThinkVantage Softwares? Which version of the OS are you using?
You don't need to use ThinkVantage Access software in windows if you don't want to, you can delete it.

Can CDC enabled database DIFF backups be RESTORED while maintaining the CDC integrity?

We tried restoring FULL + subsequent DIFF backups of a CDC enabled database to a different SQL server and found that the CDC integrity is not being maintained. We did RESTORE the databases with the KEEP_CDC option.
Can someone please guide us on how to successfully restore the CDC enabled database backups(FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity?
Note: SQL Server Version: SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU2

Hi YoungBreeze,
Based on your description, I make a test on my computer.
Firstly, I create a database named ‘sqldbpool’ , then enable the
Change Data Capture (CDC) feature and take full+ differential backups of the database. Below are the scripts I used.
-- Create database sqldbpool
CREATE DATABASE [sqldbpool] ON PRIMARY
( NAME = N'SQLDBPool', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SQLDBPool.mdf' , SIZE = 5120KB ,
MAXSIZE = UNLIMITED, FILEGROWTH = 1024KB )
LOG ON
( NAME = N'SQLDBPool_log', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SQLDBPool_log.LDF' , SIZE = 3840KB ,
MAXSIZE = 2048GB , FILEGROWTH = 10%)
GO
use sqldbpool;
go
-- creating table
create table Customer
custID int constraint PK_Employee primary key Identity(1,1)
,custName varchar(20)
--Enabling CDC on SQLDBPool database
USE SQLDBPool
GO
EXEC sys.sp_cdc_enable_db
--Enabling CDC on Customer table
USE SQLDBPool
GO
EXEC sys.sp_cdc_enable_table
@source_schema = N'dbo',
@source_name = N'Customer',
@role_name = NULL
GO
--Inserting values in customer table
insert into Customer values('jugal'),('shah')
-- Querying CDC table to get the changes
select * from cdc.dbo_customer_CT
--Taking full database backup
backup database sqldbpool to disk = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\sqldbpool.bak'
insert into Customer values('111'),('222')
-- Querying CDC table to get the changes
select * from cdc.dbo_customer_CT
--Taking differential database backup
BACKUP DATABASE sqldbpool TO DISK = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\sqldbpooldif.bak' WITH DIFFERENTIAL
GO
Secondly, I restore the ‘sqldbpool’ database in a different SQL Server instance with the following scripts. After the restoration, everything works as expected and the database maintains the CDC integrity.
Use master
Go
--restore full database backup
restore database sqldbpool from disk = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\sqldbpool.bak' with keep_cdc
Restore Database sqldbpool From Disk = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\sqldbpool.bak'
With Move 'SQLDBPool' To 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SQLDBPool.mdf',
Move 'SQLDBPool_log' To 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SQLDBPool_log.LDF',
Replace,
NoRecovery;
Go
--restore differential database backup
restore database sqldbpool from disk = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\sqldbpooldif.bak' with keep_cdc
--add the Capture and Cleanup jobs
Use sqldbpool
exec sys.sp_cdc_add_job 'capture'
GO
exec sys.sp_cdc_add_job 'cleanup'
GO
insert into Customer values('TEST'),('TEST1')
-- Querying CDC table to get the changes
select * from cdc.dbo_customer_CT
When we restore a CDC enabled database, we need to note that the CDC feature is available only on the Enterprise, Developer, and Evaluation editions of SQL Server. And we need to add the Capture and Cleanup agent jobs after restoring the database.
For more details about restoring a CDC enabled database in SQL Server, you can review the following similar articles.

How do I successfully restore the CDC enabled database backups (FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity?
Answer
When restoring a CDC enabled database on a different machine that is running SQL Server, besides using use the KEEP_CDC option to retain all the CDC metadata, you also need to add Capture and Cleanup jobs.
In addition, as you want to restore FULL + DIFF backups of a CDC enabled database, you need to note that the KEEP_CDC and NoRecovery options are incompatible. Use the KEEP_CDC option only when you are completing the recovery. I made a test to display

I'm new using Logic, i've been using garageband for quite awhile now though but my question is just basic. When i want to record electric guitar while clicking the software option it brings me to alot of guitar sounds that i want to chose. I chose the twangy electric or the distorted strat but i only hear clean sounds. No matter what kind of guitar sound i chose in the library it only produces clean guitar. How can i make it sound like it supposed to? Did i miss something i should do?

This definitely has me stumped as I'm unsure as to why your guitar can be heard, but with none of the channel strips plugins applied to the sound.
On the record enabled channel strip that contains your guitar input, is the "I" button located near the "R" active? Also, if you record your guitar, can you hear the FX applied to it when you play back the recorded track?

How do I make image backgrounds black and white while maintaining color in the foreground objects?

I have a close up close-up image of an orchid with blurred background. I am trying to make the background black and white while maintaining the foreground color on the petals, buds and stems. Any ideas?

Use the Blank & White Brick and either brush the effect onto the background or brush is away from the foreground. "Detect Edges" will help control the edge of the mask.
You might be interested in knowing that you can brush on/away masks of different strengths, and thus produce effects in between 0% and 100%.
Search the forum -- there are several good posts detailing how to create this effect.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
First did a full back up of iphone using iTunes
Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
Disconnected USB cable from iphone
Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
A full restore from back-up then occured
I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour.
