Could i upgrade from my current laptop graphics to a Nvidia GTX 840m

I have a HP Pavillion 17-e153sa and i wondered if i could upgrade the graphics to a Nvidia GTX 840m, this is due to me want a better experience during gaming? As i do not know if it would invole me replacing the whole motherboard.

Anything like that would involve replacing the whole motherboard. The laptop is fairly new and the cost of swapping in another motherboard is going to be more than it would cost net to simply sell your laptop and buy one with the graphics you want/need.

I want to upgrade from my current version of Flash v11.9.900.117 to the current v11.9.900.152. On cl

I want to upgrade from my current version of Flash v11.9.900.117 to the current v11.9.900.152. On clicking on the Flash player link in the Downloads section of the Adobe home page I am taken to what looks like the 'Flash Player' download page with an 'install Flash' button in the bottom right hand corner. However, when I click on this button I am directed back to the Adobe home page. Could this be something to do with my AV?.

Bypass the downloader/installer and download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by clicking one of the following links.

Can I change my AMD Radeon HD 7670m Graphics card to Nvidia GTX 980m

Welcome to Apple Communities
Apple releases updates, and you have to wait because Apple creates the graphics drivers. You need to check updates to know that you have the most recent version

Can't upgrade from 9.04 without graphical problems maybe from ATIextension?

Hello,
I figured before I make the leap into purchasing a new machine (Mac or PC-still not sure) I'd post a reoccuring problem with my old Power Mac G4. I have tried on a number of occasions to upgrade from the 9.04 preinstalled system to 9.1 and then even higher. 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 to no success. I'll explain. Here are my machine specs:
---Power Mac G4
---400mhz (I believe it is an AGP Graphic not a PCI)
---512mb ram
---10gb hd, but i have a 120gb wd internal in the upper brack spot right above the 10g. I've been using the 120 gb split in 2 partitions as my 9.04 startup disk.
---external zip 250 usb attached.
---LaCie 52x cd burner attached via firewire
Everytime I try to run the update (and I have downloaded these more than once, thinking maybe it was corrupt on download) it leaves trails on my screen. For instance, when I scroll up and down in windows using the arrows all the text corrupts to the point you can't read it. If you move the windows around the screen that leaves trails and corrupts as well. I took some time and I think narrowed it down (maybe). If I remove the NEW ATI graphics extensions from the extensions folder (the ones from 9.1 install and replace them with the 9.04 (ones from my startup disk). The problem vanishes. So in a sense I'm running 9.1 with 9.04 ATI extensions. I did what the read me says for installing the update and I believe the firmware was up to date where it called for.
The overall hope was to maybe someday put OS X on this G4, which if I remeber correctly you're suppose to be able to do on a mac this old. But I'm having no luck what so ever.
Any help would be appreciated. Maybe I can keep this machine running a bit longer before having to invest in another one.
Thanks again.

Hi, Creative -
One thing that comes to mind is that OS 9 (at least 9.1 and later, maybe earlier, too) installs two ATI extensions when only one is needed, the one specific to the kind of graphics card in the machine. Having both active can cause some problems.
Specifically, the two extensions are named -
ATI Rage 128 3D Accelerator
ATI Radeon 3D Accelerator
Check in Apple System Profiler (on ASP's Devices & Volumes page, click the info triangles on the bus labelled PCI) to determine which card you have, Rage or Radeon, and then disable (or remove) the extension for the other kind of card.

Will I be able to upgrade my HP Pavillion m8530f 's graphics card to NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti

ive been looking all over the web to no avail on a variety of graphics cards that i can install on my desktop. Ive had my eye on NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti but i need to know if i can get some good graphics out of my machine
Specs:
Windows Vista Home premium
5120 system memory

Hi,
The motherboard in your PC has a not so good history.
Open up you PC and do some measuring to make sure that the GTX 550 will fit. This EVGA is a good model but there aer other brands just as good. The card is 8.25" in length. The slot adjacent to the PCI-E x16 slot needs to be vacant.
You will need a bigger power supply. A 500 watt power supply should be sufficient for the GTX 550.
Look at this Corsair CX500. It's a good quality power supply.
You should open up your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your power supply. Here is a list of things to consider:
Specifications
Total wattage - important
12+ volt amperage rating - important
Modular - not mandatory but I like the flexibility
Warranty
i7 and SLI ready
Efficiency rating
Cost
Physical size -- standard ATX PSU is 5.5" by 5.9" by 3.4" give or take a few tenths
A single 12+ volt rail is a better choice.
www.newegg.com has lots of PSUs choices. Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake.....

I cannoy download the latest version of Itunes it will not upgrade from the current version

I cannot upgrade my current version of Itunes to the current version Is there any help available?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find CoreMedia.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

Can I upgrade from a CS5 Student Edition (PC) to CS6 Mac?

Hi, quick question:
Some time ago I bought CS5 (student edition) for my PC. I've never opened the box, so it's uninstalled.
I'm getting a mac (it arrived today actually) and I'd like to be able to install photoshop on this. Since it's a different platform, can I upgrade from my current version without having to buy the full-priced CS6 for mac?
Basically, could I: install my student edition on my pc, get the student verification code (I'm still a student), and then not just go through the upgrade process to CS6 but also cross platforms from pc to mac?
OR: could I install the pc version, upgrade to CS6 (still pc) then crossgrade that?
Would it be the same cost?
Thanks so much

There are no upgrades for student versions. If you are still eligible you simply buy a new CS6 license for Mac.

Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, SMB issues - incorrect password

This is a very frustrating issue, and its affecting my work now.
Basically I used to use the SMB sharing quite a lot in work, it was an ideal way for our clients to get to data off my MBP and worked like a dream in OSX 10.6
I was an early adopter, and upgraded to Lion on release date. Problem is now, I have SMB sharing switched on, but no user accounts enabled. When I tick to enable one I get "Incorrect password" (see picture)
I tried disabling SMB and it again prompted me for my password, and to no avail, I got "incorrect password" again.
I updated to 10.7.1, and STILL unresolved. I am very disappointed that this, as well as the Guest account being disabled if you have FileVault enabled (which is a requirement of my employer due to the sensitive nature of the data we handle). I experience persistent Kernel panics triggered by my MBP switching from the Intel HD graphics to the Nvidia chipset, I am extremely frustrated and disappointed overall.

I mistakedly posted this to another topic. It's something that worked for me, I hope it to be of help to others as well.
Try the following:
1. Create a Sharing Only account through "Users & Groups" preference pane, assign a password to the account. Suppose we you create an account named "mike".
2. In Network select your interface, go to Advanced and then WINS. Under Workgroup set the default WORKGROUP and under NetBIOS Name set whatever suits you (let's assume you put "imac").
3. Now go to Sharing select a folder to share and add the "mike" user account you just created for sharing-only purpose, go to Options tick the checkbox for SMB and then for the "mike" account and enter its password when asked for it.
4. When accessing the shares from Windows box enter username in format "imac\mike" and the password for the account.
This should set you up for accessing your Mac shares from your Windows machine.
There still is a problem with adding ad hoc sharing account from the Sharing preference pane, a bug hopefullly resolved in some of the upcoming updates.

Upgrading from Oracle 9.1.0.8 to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2)

Hello everyone;
We are in the process of looking into upgrading from our current Oracle 9.1.0.8 to Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2): Windows
We would like to download and install the 10.2.0.1 base release (Oracle Software). When I go on SAP Marketplace
https://websmp210.sap-ag.de/oracle-download and goto the (Software Download) section and click on
Oracle 10.2 Software (32-bit versions) to download I receive a error NO DATA AVAILABLE.
Is there another area to download the Oracle Software? or do I need to purchase a CD from SAP or can I download this base release straight from Oracle?
Thanks for your time and have a great day.

Hello Pellegrino,
just download it from the SAP container for each product .. for example
-> Installations and Upgrades - Entry by Application Group -> SAP NetWeaver -> SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 -> Windows Server -> ORACLE

I purchased an album from the itunes store on my ipad2 thinking i could retrieve it from my windows pc. I have turned on home sharing and can see my pc library from the ipad but not vice-versa. Is there any way to transfer the album from my ipad library?

I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?

Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

Upgrade from BOE XI 3.0 to 3.1

Hi,
We need to upgrade from our current BOE XI 3.0 to 3.1. According to Upgrade Guide for XI 3.1, "To install the .NET components (which we need) in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI, uninstall XI 3.0, and then install XI 3.1". There's no mention how to preserve the XI 3.0 configurations/data, or export them before the XI 3.0 uninstall and import them after the XI 3.1 install.
For people went through the same upgrade path, would you please share your experience on how to carry out upgrade to XI 3.1 while preserve 3.0 data?
Much appreciated,
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,
Here your strategy would be.
1) Please check in the Import Wizard Pdf for BIAR file with server properties.
2) Backup of the entire CMS and the contents of the Storage folder (it contains the directories and contents of both the Input and Output File Repository Servers). These are the physical copies of the reports - the CMS contains the pointers etc.
For all backup instances it's advisable to de-activate all the servers except the CMS.

Upgrade from EBP 4.0 to SRM 5.0

Hi y'all,
We are thinking about upgrading from our current EBP 4.0 to SRM 5.0. We are only using EBP for the self-service procurement scenario - with a classic integration towards two different R/3 4.6C systems. We have no internal catalogs and it is very much a standard set-up
Has anyone had some <b>experiences to share?</b>
Will it be a "large" or a "small" upgrade?
Are there any watchouts or learnings?
Many thanks in advance
Thyge

hello Thyge,
you are running on EBP 4.0, i.e. SRM 3.0: Extension of mainstream maintenance was extended from end of June 2006 to end of December 2006, at no extra fee.
Requisite 4.0 will be supported to end of December 2006 (refer to SAP Note 485884 for detailed information on Requisite).
That means that, excpet if you go in a custom support contract with SAP, your system will not be supported at end of 2006.
So you must "be prepared" and do this upgrade in 2006 !!!
If you don't use new features, have only 20 users, and a nearly standard SRM, you upgrade efforts will be really light:
- technical upgrade (attention: new Oracle version required) Unicode version ?
- nearly no custom dev alignement
- light re-training
The main workload would be the migration from Requisite to SAP CCM 2.0 (if you choose this option), depending on your actual content management strategy.
I think a 3 months upgrade project will be the correct duration for you.
