Driver issue please h

I'm having a bit different problem than most that I was able to find on here. When I run the diagnostics test Hardware passes, and everything in the software passes but wave. I believe this to be causing an issue with a program I am trying to use. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the entire cd and the wave driver is still failing. Looking for a fix to this.
Thanks
Jeremy

Hello skoubah,
Welcome to Creative forums!
Even if it says unavailable, both should work. Hmm...try the following steps:
.) Right click on the Volume icon in the system tray and open up Recording devices.
2.) Under recording tab, make sure that microphone is set to default (you just have to click on the default button). You should have a feedback from the microphone. If you can't hear anything, it is possible that mic was set on mute. How to check if mic is on mute or not? You go to Playback tab (this is beside Recording and Sounds). Under playback, highlight speakers and click on properties. Go to Levels tab and make sure mic is not on mute and increase the volume. Now go back to step 2 and try again.
3.) Once you have a feedback from the mic, you can now change the default to What U Hear. Mic should also be working even if it says currently unavailable.
This are my settings when I tested it and it worked like a charm..
Hope this hel
ps.
-Loi

Device Driver Issue - Please help

Hello All,
We are currently using SCCM 2012 SP1 for OS Deployment and i have been working on a HP elitebook 820 G1 and probook 650 G1. Both build successfully but do not install any device drivers.
I have downloaded the driver package from HPs website, extracted all the drivers (inf,sys,cat) and put them into 'one' folder, i then created a driver package and imported the drivers into the package and category.
In the task sequence i have created a 'apply driver package task' with the wmi query for this model, i have also tried disabling the 'auto detect drivers' so that it doesn't look into the DB.
So far i haven't had any luck and have been working on this for over a week.
I have looked at the smsts log on the workstation after the build and there are no errors relating to drivers.
Any help will be appreciated

Honestly it sounds like something isn't right with the WMI query. Can you confirm that your WMI query is correct? Open a command prompt on one of the computer models you are having issues with. Run "wmic csproduct get name" which will report back the computer
model as seen by WMI. Confirm that your WMI query would be valid based on that name. WMI queries that I have used...
Most manufacturers:
SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem WHERE Model like "<model name from WMI>"
Lenovo:
SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct WHERE Version like "ThinkPad T510"

Hard Drive Issues - Please Help

I have an early 2011 15 inch MBP i7 8gb ram. I was running really sluggishly so I did a complete reformat of the hard drive. That did not work, and even after reinstalling everything manually (not from a time machine backup) it is still really slow. When viewing the finder, it get very different numbers on how much free space is left. Once it said I had 1.2 TB free even thought it is only a 1 TB drive. I have run Verify Disk in disk utility and got:

When I use my start up disk and reapiar it says the repair is successful, but then a week later if I run the verify disk again I get something similar to above. Why is this happening? Is the hard drive bad?
Thanks for any help.

The hard drive is dead. Take it in to the store for repair.

Constant Driver/software issues, please

I have had an Audigy 2 ZS Gamer for over 8 months now and I haven't been able to use it properly yet. There seems to be this stupid idea that form in more important than function. the drivers look all pretty, but cause my Norton AV to malfunction, take way too much processor time while operating the interface, and have caused numerous problems with my 3 regular games: World of Warcraft, Diablo 2, and bejewelled.
I'll detail:
The interface: it's pretty and all, but it doesn't match the rest of my operating windows and the response time is way too long to any clicks. the controls have too small of a reaction area, smaller than the actual controls so that when I click something, I don't have a guarantee that I actually clicked the right spot. combine that with it's reaction time and I get very frustrated trying to adjust anything since I have to click 4-5 times per item. Why can't you just use the base windows components and make it operate like a normal windows app instead of 'skinning' everything to make it look pretty? That is specifically the reason I quit using Winamp. That's issue #. Work on getting things to work right, then try to make it look pretty while keeping the functionality.
Norton AV: I keep having Norton AV 2005 malfunction, saying it can't start, then triggering the Windows XP security center alert for about -2 minutes after I restart. This happens with all versions of the creative software that work with this card. Norton says specifically that it is creative software that causes it. Granted, Norton is not the most functional AV solution, but it is the most quickly updated. I have had more problems with McAfee and I don't trust any of the others to update quickly enough to actually prevent infection. I will not run without an AV program, despite what people say. I have had to wipe my system far too many times due to an infection (3 times) that I was unable to get rid of. Please make your software work properly with other programs and stop the attitude of 'my software is more important' that causes stupid problems like this.
World of Warcraft: the surround and center channels have extremely low volume even when cranked up all the way. I have to lower the main channels to at most half volume, then crank the center and surround channels, then crank the main volume control up all the way and use the speaker or headphone volume to control the actual volume. This creates a lot of noise, and since it works normally with my WinDVD, I have to do this adjustment nearly every time I play WoW. there is also an issue where the volume of what is picked up by my microphone is way too low. using Ventrilo while in this game, I can only listen since nobody can hear me when I use my mic. This same mic and headphone work just fine with my on-board sound.
Diablo 2: the music is scratchy and skips a lot, so I end up having to turn it off. I like the music and Blizzard spent a lot of time creating it. it sets the whole mood of the game and makes it more enjoyable. Surround sound also doesn't work quite right, leaving out some sounds. both of these work fine with my cheap on-board sound. I enjoy playing this game more with my on board sound.
Bejewelled: there are certain points where there are cascades and the jewels line up perfectly and I get about 6-8 groups at once, but with this sound card only and not my cheap on-board sound or my cheap Muse XL sound card, when those cascades happen, I get this aweful screeching sound when it tries to play more than one sound at a time.
Now, before anyone says 'it's the motherboard' or 'it the memory bandwidth', I'll show you what I've gone through with this card, and trying it out again after every change:
processors:
Athlon 64 3500+ socket 939
Athlon 44 X2 4200+ socket 939
Motherboards:
Asus A8V K8T800Pro AGP motherboard (first one bought with my 3500+)
Abit AN8-SLi nVidia nForce 4 SLi chipset (bought this anticipating upgrade to 4200+)
Asus A8N-SLi Premium nForce 4 SLi chipset (bought this when I realized the 4200+ wouldn't work with the Abit board)
Memory:
GB Corsair DDR400 2-2-2-5 (52MBX2) (now in my nephew's system)
2GB Corsair DDR400 2-3-2-5 (GBX2) (never run in the system at the same time)
Video cards:
Geforce 6800GT (with the K8T800Pro board)
Geforce 7800GT (with the other 2 motherboards
Sound cards compared to:
On-board sound from ALC650 chips on all 3 motherboards (works ok, but sound quality not so good and processor usage too high)
Hercules MuseXL (didn't have all the capabilites I wanted)
Hercules FortissimoIII (had driver issues, sound bleeds into Vent)
Turtle Beach Montego (had driver issues, music/midi doesn't play right)
Speakers:
Turtle Beach surround sound headphones with microphone
Logitech 5. speakers (can't remember the model, but it's all analog)
I paid $39 for this stupid card and I want to be able to work with it. My last experience with a Creative product was horrible for the same reasons, an AWE64 back in the ISA days, and was the exact reason I didn't buy another Creative product until this one. I had a friend cheer on the Audigy, so I figured you might have changed a bit, but I found out it all got worse. The only way you are going to fix problems like this is to cut out the stupid fluff and get back to the basics. Fluff may sell to the stupid people, but it really annoys those of us who want things to work.
Simply put: PRETTY DOESN'T COUNT IF IT DOESN'T WORK RIGHT!!!!!!!
K. I.S.S.

I want to reiterate this to the programmers and support staff of this company. Again, they have come out with garbage that is more fluff and less functionality. Someone chime in and tell them that we want working, not necessarily pretty. Crap painted in pretty colors is still crap.

HP DVD RAM UJ8DB Driver Issue, not updating, please help

Hi, I am trying to insert cd/ dvd but it does not detect any cd or dvd i found this issue today. It never showed this issue in the past. I checked on forums, opened device mangager and also tried to uninstall, restart and update or install driver for HP UJ8DB, but it doesn't fix it says windows has determined the driver software is up to date. Please help me fast i want to install antivirus software. I have windows 8.1 PC

It is not a driver issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060
The above Microsoft article will take you through the possible issues. Does the drive show up in device manager? The BIOS?
Can you boot from it? It is likely either a corruption of the registry which the linked article shows how to fix, or the drive itself is bad and needs to be replaced. Post back to answer the questions so we can help.

R7770 / Win XP pro driver issue - directx not supported help please!

Hi guys sorry to bother you, and for such a long question.
I've just purchased a brand new MSI branded AMD radeon r7770 to replace my nvidia 8800gt graphics card which finally bit the dust last week.
Despite uninstalling the old nVidia drivers, trying the ones that came with the card and downloading and installing the very latest versions from both the AMD and MSI sites, I still cannot get directx to work. At first glance, the drivers look to be installed OK, (the Catalyst Control Center starts up etc) but none of my games run, and the desktop refresh is incredibly slow. KSP's crash log helpfully states that it cannot find the device driver. When I run Dxdiag.exe all the directx diagnostic tags are greyed out and the info box states that the card does not support directx.
The system is pretty ancient but should still be up to the task as it was a well speced gaming PC in its day:
Mboard: Asus P5K3 Deluxe (intel P35 chipset)
CPU: Intel core2duo Q6600 (quad-core)
mem: 4 gig Corsair ddr3 mem.
PSW: 600W
OS: Win XP pro SP3
I'm aware that this is an old PCI-E 1.0 board and the card is designed around PCI-E 3.0, but the computer boots up and starts Windows just fine. Both the Bios and Windows detect the R7770 correctly. (I'd have thought if this was an issue - it wouldn't go past POST at all and begin beeping like crazy!)
To muddy the waters still further, as a experiment, I installed an old radeon card for test (a crappy Sapphire hd 2600 pro PCI-E version), which is about the same age as the rest of the system.
I couldn't find the drivers disk initally, so downloaded the relevant ones from Sapphire and AMD. Got EXACTLY the same problem as above: it looks as the drivers have installed but no Directx support (which is daft as I used to use that card games until I could afford to replace it with the 8800)
I tried everything I could think of for hours (including disabling driver signing security, stopping anti-virus software, trolling through the windows/ inf, System32 and System dirctories to weed out anything ATI - you name it) then miraculously found the old drivers for the HD 2600. Installed them with no probem at all - everything worked just as it should!
So, I looks to me like the XP drivers on the web are now garbage. Anyone else have similar problems or know of a workaround?
I'm not exactly rich so can't afford Win 7 or the dreaded Win 8 (which I loath) or a new PC, which is why i'm soldering on with this dinosaur!
The only thing I haven't done is splat Windows and do a clean install, do you think that'll help? If so why did the old radeon drivers work (win has been cleanly re-installed many a time since I last used that card, so there was no legacy junk lurcking in the windows diectory or it's registry)
Do you think I'd have better luck with NVidia? If so could you kindly recommend an alternative from them? I know an R7770 is a bit OTT for such an old system, but they are dirt cheap at the mo and not much more expensive than much less powerful cards.
Anyone have any thoughts about UBuntu? If it is a driver issue or there is no workaround, I may need to consider this route. Trouble is none of my legacy games will run on Linux and i'm not sure virtualization is available for my mboard.
Anyways, thanks for your time and for any suggestions you might make
Regards
Mike

Hi Flex, thanks for the quick reply and for the advice.
In the end i got it going by changing the boot.ini settings.
They were initially set with the /3GB /fastdetect switch to force the WinXp kernal to run in 1GB, and not take up 2GB as is it's default.
It was set that way to stop a 32bit game (KSP) crashing every 10 minutes or so, through lack of addressable memory.
All I did was simply set the boot.ini back to its default and directx sprung to life. I reset it back to 3GB to make sure it wasn't a fluke and as soon as I did, it killed directx again.
Maybe its a driver issue afterall - probably lack of proper XP support by AMD (This dosen't happen with the old- - 2008 vintage - version 4 ATI radeon drivers.) or perhaps its because the card has twice the memory over my old cards and therefore needs to access a higher portion of I/O allocation than is available in 32bit WinXP.
Its all a bit ironic really as i'm finding the R7770 runs like crap under dirx9 - i'm getting about 30% the frame rate of my old Nvida 8800GT and, as I can't use the 3GB switch anymore, it crashes every 5 mins or whenever I play any resource intensive game.
As the crashes are caused by lack of available address spaces under 32 bit systems, I've bitten the bullet and got 64bit Ubuntu. Got this working in the wee small hours last night - including the R7770 using the AMD catalyst drivers for Linux. Hopefully that will sort things out (and gimmie an excuse to learn a proper OS!)
Wish me luck i can see another "steep learning curve" on the horizon!
Cheers
Mike

Error Msg - There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive

Okay, I have been using itunes w/the same ipod for quite a while. Recently my computer died so I just bought a new one. Before getting rid of the old one I logged onto windows and moved all my files to an external drive. I am now using this external drive for all my docs, music, etc. on the new computer and did a "move" of "my documents" (including "my music" contained therein). I installed itunes and my ipod using the software disks that came with my ipod. I inserted the ipod and it worked fine but it did make me associate the ipod with this new computer and had to reinstall all my music on my ipod. So far so good. Then when I went to play a purchased song itunes informed me that I had to upgrade to the most recent version of itunes to play the song. I then dowloaded the update and installed it. After installing the updated itunes, itunes then basically re-associated itself with my ORIGINAL profile (I'm not sure if profile is the correct word to use here) and once again deleted everything on my ipod and reinstalled all my songs. Now this is where I began having this problem. Now, everytime I run itunes (with or without my ipod connected) I get 12 of the above-mentioned error messages. The top of the box says "Windows - No Disk" and the main part of the box says "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." I am given the choice of "Cancel" "Try Again" and "Continue." I hit cancel for a total of 12 times. I've tried with disks in both of my cd/dvd drives and get the same message. The funny thing is that I have about 12 or so card readers (scene by the computer as drives) and I'm thinking that maybe itunes is trying to access those drives or something, but I'm not sure. So, that's it in a nutshell. Any help by someone w/knowledge of this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This can also be caused in iTunes 7 by "dead tracks": songs that iTunes is expecting to find in a certain place but the song file isn't there.
I recently upgraded to version 7 and got this message every time I started iTunes. I used the iTunes COM SDK for Windows with JScript to find all the dead tracks in my library. Then I fixed them by either deleting them from the library or else correcting the library's idea of where the song file was. Once I did this the message went away.
Another way to look for dead tracks is to parse the iTunes library XML file and look for invalid file paths. I did this in Perl without too much trouble.
(I'm cross-posting this to several threads about the same problem.)

Hard drive issues after update 10.10.3

Question also posted here:Hard Drive Issues (Both new and old)
I'm trapped in a HDD nightmare with my MacBook Pro mid-2012.
I updated to Yosemite 10.10.3 (with the Photos app). A couple of days after the update, I was watching a movie on my TV screen via HDMI. In the middle of the movie I removed the HDMI cable from the MacBook Pro and everything freezes. I forced shut down (Note: My HDD was encrypted). After I forced shut down, I tried to turn on and the loading screen would never stop loading - like, 14 hours stuck with the progress bar. Since I have backups, I decided to access DU and format my HDD. I tried everything. For real. Every command line I could type on Terminal to format, repair, erase and/or partition. I read almost every issue-related questions on the forums and stack exchange groups for a week (even posted my issue here: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/181090/erasing-and-partitioning-hard-dr ive-from-internet-recovery?noredirect=1#comment215695_181090).
So, I decided that it was a HDD failure and bought a new one.
I bought the Seagate 1TB SSHD Hybrid - ST1000LM014. Installed the new fresh disk and guess what? All those same problems again. I´m not able to restore from Time Machine because it doesn't recognize the disk in the restore page. But the disk is recognized in the DU. When I try to erase or partition the new SSHD, the same old errors: File system formatter failed. Yes, I tired GUID Partition Table, all of the security options, etc.
Please. Any light that you can throw at this issue, I'll be very grateful for. BTW, the new SSHD is recognized and the SMART Status says: Verified.
Any ideas on *** is going on?
Thanks in advance!
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), i7, 8GB RAM

After I erase the hard drive (I assume one pass of writing zeros is good enough, 7 passes not needed?) do I turn off the laptop, then turn on and insert the Install Disk? Will there be a prompt telling me when to put in the disk? Or do I put in the disc right after erasing?
One pass is fine. If you've previously backed up your hard drive to an external hard drive using SuperDuper!, which is what I use and recommend, or another program, if it created a bootable drive, you want to boot off of it, bring up SuperDuper! and copy the drive back to the internal hard drive. SuperDuper also makes the drive bootable. When done, reboot, and you should be all set. If you're using Time Machine, you'll want to install the operating system, then restore the Time Machine backup. SuperDuper! is available from http://www.shirt-pocket.com/superduper/superduperdescription.html
Finally- should I update the OS? Is there a problem with the newest update that caused this crash, or was it just a spurious glitch/bad luck?
I've been running 10.5.8 for awhile with no issues, and would recommend moving to it.

HP 6600 Scan\Print Driver Issue for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

Hello,
For some time now I have been unable to scan or print from my desktop (Windows 7 Professional 64bit) and I have exhausted too much effort and am now bringing it to the masses.
The problem:
Printing: Currently receiving an "Error - Offline" message in my printer queue at all times.
Scanning: Scanning has never fully worked on this desktop. I am always unable to communicate with the printer. (Though webscan works through accessing the printers IP address)
Things I have tried:
Ran HPPSDr, followed directions (Unpluged power to printer, turn back on, restart computer) brings me to this website after it cannot fix. (Note that while the HPPSDr is running it always notions that there is a driver problem)
Uninstalled Drivers from CD-ROM, re-installed, countless times
Installed "Windows 7 Pro 64 bit drivers" from the HP website and uninstalled, countless times.
Attempted to set a static IP and use "Update IP Address" to point specifically at the printers IP.
Installed Drivers and finding the printer myself through it's own static IP address.
Turned off firewall and attempted to print (after reboot), same errors
Setting up the printer on all of my laptops (3) wirelessly to attempt to find if there is a problem with the printer or static IP. (1 is Windows VISTA 32bit and the other 2 are Ubuntu 32bit). All laptops are able to use the printer wirelessly without any problems.
Read all of the forums about this issue and attempted all of the 'solutions'. Although I mostly don't see that anyone with this same problem is resolved, unless I'm missing the perfect post.
Things I have not tried:
Plugging the USB directly into the desktop. (This seems self defeating as the purpose for this printer was to be able to print wirelessly to it from across the room)
Re-installed Windows 7 Pro 64bit (Trying to avoid this, would rather just print from laptops)
You tell me
Curiosities:
I have noticed strange things that make me believe the driver is somehow incomptable with my OS. Here is a shot of the properties of the printer:
Weird that it is not recognizing the model number.
Also in the Printer Settings when I go to the port tab, there is no port selected, if I try and tab away it forces me to select a port, yet when I do and 'apply' and then re-open the Printer Settings in the ports tab; it has again unselected the previously selected port.
Theories:
I feel like my OS is just refusing to notice the IP address for the wireless printer, no matter what I have it set to, even if it's dynamic. It's like the driver for Windows 7 Pro 64bit is actually not the correct driver for my system.
Anyways, another thing to mention is that I am not currently willing to wipe my operating system and re-install Windows 7 Pro in order to resolve this just yet. I want to see if anyone else has any other avenues I can try before even beginning to consider that.
Anyways, thanks in advance for taking the time to read my ramblings and hopefully someone who has resolved this issue can help me.

Hi Zerosouls,
I understand you are having an issue with HP 6600 Scan\Print Driver Issue for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
First try to click the Windows icon, type services in the Search box, and then click or tap View Local Services. Scroll down to the Windows Installer. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started
Restart the computer after this step and try installing Hp Officejet 6600 again.
Please let me know what happens

HP PSC 1510 driver issue with Windows 8.1

I can't get my HP PSC 1510 all in one to work with Window's 8.1. I've installed HP doctor and the driver fails. I've downloaded the new driver so I don't know what the issue is? Anybody solve a similar issue?

Hi @DerekRL , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I can see you're experiencing driver issues. I'd like to help!
I would suggest Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, I would suggest putting your system into clean boot mode within the Microsoft configuration. You can do so by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest reinstalling the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

ThinkPad USB Keyboard with TrackPoint (55Y9053) driver issue (keys not working)

Hello!
I bought this external keyboard yesterday for my Dell desktop running windows 7 (professional) because I liked the thinkpad keyboard in my thinkpad t400. After plugging in to my desktop and installing the drivers that came in the CD, I noticed some keys (u, o, m, enter(return), l) were not working, i.e., nothing get displayed when I press those keys . When I tried installing it on thinkpad t400 running Windows 7 professional, the same non-working keys were displaying numbers instead of alphabet values.
Please note the keyboard is not 55Y9003 but the newer version 55Y9053. Also, note the trackpoint worked well including scrolling and all other keys were working. Interestingly, when I plugged this keyboard on Ubuntu machine (desktop and laptop), everything worked well without even installing any drivers.
I initially thought it was a hardware problem and got replacement from Amazon. Both the keyboards exhibit the same problem. Given the fact it works nicely on Ubuntu, I think this is a driver issue. I tried installing drivers from thinkpad site including versions 1.6 and 1.7.
I would appreciate if someone can help with the right drivers.
Thank you,
Vinai
Solved!

How does the keyboard compare to the one on the T400? I'm considering purchasing one for my desktop because I'm addicted to the TrackPoint.

Vista Premium Home Edition 32-bit on newest Macbook Issues PLEASE help!

Please someone help me with my problem, I'm begging! I've asked around a bunch of places and everyone comes back to me with "well it's a mac.. use it as a mac why do you have vista on it" and never seem to help me. I love my mac, but I also use Vista for many other programs.
Okay here's some backstory...
I recently had to buy a new macbook because my old white macbook came back to me unrepairable! So I had bought the newest model of the macbook, the aluminum 13-inch. Now on my old white one I had installed vista no problems at all, no issues. It ran beautifully! Now I thought I'd have no issues doing the same on the new macbook. Boy was I wrong! I portioned my disc - installed vista, installed the bootcamp drivers and started vista.
It was fine for a while but then I started getting sound cut outs and screaching noises! When I am gaming the sound cuts out completely but not before the game freezes. Then I started having issues watching videos and listening to audio on firefox. Then it'd crash completely! Now it's started shutting off completely giving me a blue screen for a couple seconds telling me there may be a conflict or driver issue. It doesnt stay on long enough for me to read but I ended up checking windows problems and solutions and found this:
"This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 and this version of Windows.
Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 was created by Intel Corporation and is distributed by Apple Inc.."
Also driver not found? - "Windows detected a new device attached to your computer, but could not find the driver software it needs to make the device usable. Each device manufacturer typically includes driver software of a CD that comes with the device, or as a download from its website. The hardware ID of your device is ACPI\APP0001."
I don't know how to fix it. I've been trying everything - reading forums, trying to update drivers, reinstalling bootcamp drivers, and vista repair... I just have no idea what to do! Please help me!!! Please please! If you need more information ask for my email so I can talk to you more in-depth so I don't go insane trying to figure this out!

What do you want someone to say or do.
The story slides into information about Intel chipsets and crashing. That to me says take it into Apple and have AppleCare do something.
There is no reason to deal with an issue. A Mac is a personal computer. There is nothing that says it can't run Linux or Vista or has to run Leopard (though it isn't supported on older versions of OS X).
I've used Vista for over two years now, from RC1 pre-release to the latest SP2 beta.
Is your version of Vista SP1 or the older original?
I've found lately that I need to install some software even before Vista starts doing all the updates. Apple Boot Camp but also AV software etc. HOWEVER, given some of the reports, I sometimes wonder if the Apple Windows drivers are current and were tested on late 2008 to work with Vista and XP SP3.
I would think Vista SP1+ would be best bet. I'd even install Vista and then see when Windows 7 beta is officially available to the public, it runs better on laptops than Vista or XP. Better battery life, support for mobile and wireless devices etc.
You could play around and I've downloaded drivers or looked for drivers on Intel, something you would do on any PC running Vista. Maybe these links and discussions or Intel's. And find people and places that support you rather than "lecture." I don't know, haven't read up, on the device, or use a MacBook, but maybe these will help you.

A number of reviews have come out looking at "who makes the best Vista capable laptop" and MacBook Pro and Air have both gotten high marks from reviewers like ComputerWorld.

Driver issue please h
