Driver problems with Windows Professional XP 64bit Edition

Well, after looking around the forum here I found an answer that works! I wish I could remember who to give credit too though. I installed the latest Vista drivers and I got static all the time. I tried another members suggestion of disabling the X-Fi device in the Device manager every time I log off and then enable the X-Fi the next time I log in. I have great sound as long as I do that. Also, for connecting to a home system I am using the DTS-60, $00 on this website, but it works well if you havea DTS decoder. I am using the X-Fi extreme Music edition. Good Luck, hopefully another driver is on the way.

Bootcamp Driver Problems in Windows 8

I use a MBP 13" 2010 model, and I've used it for a long time, but it's never had any problems with Bootcamp until now.
Last month I bought a copy of Windows 8 Pro x64 (disc) and I wanted to install it on my recently clean-installed Mac. I installed it with no problems using Bootcamp. Booting into Windows 8, I found that the Bootcamp Drivers weren't compatible with Windows 8, but I looked up a guide that told me just to install the drivers one by one. I did that and rebooted.
The drivers still didn't work for some reason. The brightness controls weren't adjustable, the keyboard shortcuts didn't work, the trackpad failed as well, and numerous other problems plagued me in Windows mode. I re-installed the drivers and rebooted, but it still didn't work. I even installed the Nvidia display driver seperately, but no go. Is this Bootcamp's problem? Most likely the driver's out of date.
So I'm stuck using my office computer now, until I can find a way to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.

defan752,
I recently put Windows 8 (64bit) on my 15" 2009 MBP. I performed a clean install utilizing Boot Camp. I followed instructions found online. Prior to installing Win8, I had WinXP installed on a partition, which worked perfectly.
For my Win8 installation I upgraded my MBP's OS from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion comes with a newer version of Boot Camp (version 4.0 - I believe). The newer version has a slightly different process for driver installation. It has you create a driver installation disc within the Boot Camp Asstant software running on my Mac BEFORE creating the partition and installation. First it will connect to the interenet and download the latest support files for the drivers for your machine, then it will ask you to insert a blank disc, upon which it will write Windows friendly installation file (the disc contained an executable file [.exe] which is to be run on the newly installed windows parition). While Boot Camp (4.0 or whatever it is that came with Mountain Lion) doesn't have official support for Windows 8, utilizing the Windows 7 installation method will create a Driver CD that works in Win8. After creation of driver disc, follow the normal installation instructions (create partition, install win8). Once Win8 finishes installing, go to the desk top (Windows Button + D), pop in the driver disc and the Executable file. After the file runs the drivers will be installed but will require a reboot in order to be utilized. Reboot your machine and you should be good to go.
NOTE: hold on to that driver disc, I have already had to use it to repair some of my drivers that got messed (my own fault, not mac's or MS) and reran the executable file which fixed everything again.
NOTE: You will be able to utilize much of the drivers in the Win8 environment, however there are limitations. While the trackpad supports multitouch, it is limited (two finger right click, two finger scrolling). The nifty new multitouch gestures in Win8, are not yet supported. I suspect they will be with future updates to these drivers. But we won't get that until Boot Camp can fully support Win8. Also I noticed that my speakers don't switch to headphones when I plug them in, nor does it recognize the toslink connection. I'm still looking for answers to those problems.
For more details regarding the driver support in Windows 8 running on a Mac i found this website useful:

CPU Overheating problem on Windows 8.1 Pro (installed with BootCamp)

There is a really important overheating problem on windows 8.1 (installed with bootcamp) even i do nothing Cpu is 50-60-70 Celcius degrees. This is really annoying problem. Most of users necessarily need windows OS for using third part programs that doesnt exist on OS X platform. I think this problem is important and has to be fixed as soon as possible.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)

Samsung hard drive problems with mid 2009 Macbook Pro

Arghh, this is driving me mad.
I'd like to know if anyone has installed a Samsung HM641JI SATA II hard drive into a mid 2009 Macbook Pro (mine is a 2.8Ghz) and, if so, how they managed it. The drive is 640GB. These are the steps I've taken:
1. Swap out the stock drive for the Samsung
2. Boot from a USB drive which contains a mirror of my system
3. When the system identified the new disk, I formatted it with 2 partitions (GUID table, HFS journaled)
4. Reboot
5. System is very slow. Boots from USB but can't use keyboard to login
6. Switch off and try again
7. Remove Samsung drive
8. Reboot from USB (works perfectly)
9. Downgrade firmware to 1.6
10. Replace samsung drive and try again
11. System boots from USB
12. Verify that drive is running at 1.5Ghz
13. Disk utility and system profiler both crash
14. Disk unmounts by itself and other random weirdness
15. Remove Samsung drive
I've read endless reports about the firmware in this model of Macbook Pro and its issues with SATA II but struggling to find anything current and specific. Two questions:
a. Is there anythign I can do to get this drive to play nicely?
b. What drive should I get if the answer to a is no?
As a bit of background.. my system began playing up last week with lots of spinning beach balls resulting in forced switch offs. Booting from a mirror on a USB drive works perfectly so I concluded that the drive was on its way out. A drive test utility confirmed this. I'm now wondering if it really was the drive or the cable or the logic board.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers
//A

I'm coming around to the idea that this might be a problem with the SATA cable rather than the drive.
I currently have the stock drive (Hitachi) back in the macbook. It mounted for a while and was then ejected when I tried writing data to it. System profiler reports that "There was an error while scanning for Serial-ATA devices."
I was able to mount the same drive in a USB enclosure this afternoon without any problems. Right now, I seem to be having issues with both the Samsung drive and the Hitachi drive - I wasn't suspicious of thr latter because I thought it was failing.
I found one or two accounts of other people having similar problems that were resolved with a new sata cable.
How does a cable fail? Could this be my problem?
Cheers

Problem installing windows 8.1 Pro into my G702PC Dominator

Hello,
so, I bought my dominator and 2 SSDs as first thing I bought a Windows 8.1 Pro as well, cause it is not possible to buy dominator already with preinstalled windows 8.1 Pro and I need to use domain and hyper-v functionality as well.
I´ve tried to do a pure Windows 8.1 Pro installation (formated C:\ deleted all partitions etc.) and it was looking ok. but afterwards I´ve found, that windows have been already activated and the version was non-pro, simple Windows 8.1 without Pro functionality so the previous version I bought the dominator with. How the heck is that possible? Does somebody perhaps know how to fix that? When I´m trying to install it, it is still not asking for new windows KEY ...so I´m not continuing then because it is clear, that the result will be the same again and again.
I´m wondering, that this can be problem somewhere in UEFI, because this can be the only place where can be the old key saved and again reused despite my new installation attempts. But I don´t want to lose the modern booting methods and go back to slower legacy. Is that actualy slower right? Please can somebody help me with this issue? Thank you very much.

How did you re-install the OS? Did you use the installation disk of your windows 8.1 pro?
Hello, yes, exactly. As first after launching the Windows installer from DVD I removed all partitions from SSD, then I have defined new and then I installed the system like usualy. I was bit surprised that I have nod been asked for key ... but I thought, that i can do that afterwards directly from system or something like that but then I was surprised again :/ M.

Vivtar Webcam driver problem in Windows 7 Enterprise x64

Hi all, I had not long purchased a Vivitar DVR 708HD Camcorder and the camera itself is rather poor, but I was impressed with it's webcam function back when I had it working on a different computer. I'm not an amature as I'm usually quite good at finding
device drivers as I did a lot of manual driver installations in Windows 98 and 95 but this one as stumped me. The even more annoying thing is, I have lost the OEM disk for the camera (although, I wasn't entitrely sure if it contained a device driver for it)
and I have got it to work once but that was in Windows 7 Ultimate x86. Now my computer is running a 64 bit version of Windows (Windows 7 Enterprise to be precise, as described in the title) and I know some drivers do not like running in 64 bit if they are
not native to them but I was wondering if anybody possibly knows how to sort this. If it is a compatibility issue with 64 bit operating systems then so be it but I was hoping somebody could assist me with this and possibly find a driver solution to work this
camera.
If you need the Hardware Identifications here they are:
USB\VID_04FC&PID_1628&REV_0100&MI_02
USB\VID_04FC&PID_1628&MI_02
I suppose it could also be possible that Vivitar features a different type of Firmware for this cameras I'm not sure but good luck if you can help!

Nvidia Geforce 650m driver problem for windows 8.1 on macbook pro

Hey guys. I installed windows 8.1 on my macbook pro (mid2012, Intel core i7, retina, Geforce 650m) of course only for game, but I have a disappointing problem with the graphics driver. First I tried to instal graphics card driver by bootcamp (not the last version, the one before the last) .It started to install drivers one by one starting with graphics card, but suddenly the screen got black and remained black forever! I restarted the windows and guess what! after windows logo it got black and nothing more! Then I installed windows again and tried to install driver from windows update. It checked for update and found the driver for it and downloaded it and started to install, but again the black screen !!! Please help me thanks.

no this does not work. bootcamp drivers are broken for windows 8.1 on an efi install. apple is withholding the discreet gpu drivers from microsoft to trick people into thinking osx is more stable/efficient and thus windows cannot detect which gpu it is supposed to use when it can see both. the discreet gpu is hidden in the fake bios setup that bootcamp wants you to install with. the problem with doing this is that the more powerful gpu is all you can use in windows so the computer runs more hot and is louder which is annoying and hard on the battery life.
thanks apple, if i knew that when i bought the laptop i would have gone with something else.
This is not correct. If you force an EFI installation on a preUEFI Mac, you will see GPU and Audio errors. A non-EFI Hybrid MBR installation works correctly. Does Windows have the ability to switch GPUs? OS X, using external monitors, uses the non-Intel discreet GPU and the machine does not run hot. If Windows can provide dual-GPU support (which they have) and also provide GPU-switching (missing), this can be done. Can it be done for older hardware, highly unlikely. MacRumors has threads with PCI Register changes to expose the Intel GPU and the machine still runs hotter.

MS-6533E VGA Driver problem on Windows NT

Hi
We recently bought a computer with a MS-6533E board with a vga plug on it. I am trying to find a driver for Windows NT 4 (sp6a), I couldn't find a driver for it on the CD-Rom that came with the board.
I went on the web page, I downloaded http://download.msi.com.tw/support/dvr_exe/650nt3b.exe and I tried it, it didn't work :
I installed it (SiS Compatible VGA), it asked me to reboot, I did, then it asked me to adjust my parameters, I have only 640x480, 16 colors, and 60 Mhz as choice. I hit "Test" and I get a blue screen, the system halted. I tried without hitting Test, but OK instead, asked me to reboot, I did, and then it told me the system couldn't use the driver.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks
Alexandre Thibault

Hi Toucan,
I'm getting a bit confused on your post... So now do you have or have not any VGA card running on your mobo... or you are still using any PCI VGA card? If you are using a VGA card, what card are you using? Give us the model of your VGA card...
If your problem lies in onboard VGA, check if you set your BIOS to VGA/Int VGA? APIC disable(as you are running NT4)?
All the Best... :D!!!
