GS70 Clean install of 8.1 Pro but no sound

I had a problem persisting before I did the clean install of 8.1 on my GS70 where after I restarted my computer the audio suddenly stated that I had no audio devices installed. After trying to search and try fixes for about 2 hours I went ahead and did a clean install of my OS along with reinstalling the drivers using the disc that it came with. Somehow it still states that I have no audio devices installed and shows that there's nothing that exists. I'm now unsure of what to do now and wondering if anyone can help me fix this problem.

Fixed it.  Just reset the EC.  Unplug the charger, press and hold the power button until the laptop turns off and keep holding for at least five seconds.  Then stick a pin into the reset hole on the right side and hold it for at least five seconds.  Then plug in the charger and turn on the power.  Speakers worked after this.  Login and then do a battery calibration.

  • A clean install on my MacBook Pro has left my icons stuck on the right side of the desktop. I want to move them but there is no 'None' option which I think would free them to move where I wish. Suggestions?

    A clean install on my MacBook Pro has left me with my icons stuck in the grid on the right side of my desktop. I had the ability to move them and have them stay put in various sectors of the desktop, which I found very useful.  The clean install upgraded the OS to 10.6.8 from 10.5.8. I want to move them again but there I see no 'None' option which I think would free them to move where I wish. Has the upgrade deleted that option? Suggestions? I am new to this community and if not new to Mac, I often feel that way. This is one of those times.

    I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

  • If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes?

    I have two questions...
    1) If I do a clean install on my MacBook Pro will I be able to re-install apps (FCP, Aperture, MS Office etc.) from a Time Machine backup, or will I need the original install DVDs with authorization codes? (because I don't have them)
    2) Has anyone ever seen anything like this before on their computers?
    The Apple Genius' were stumped by my laptop issues and said they'd never seen anything like it before and recommended I did a clean install. Below you can see my trash bin, and if you look at the "Empty" button it reads "N201" and then there's the "N39" to the left of it. You can also see these numbers over by the folder area--"SD5, SD6, SD7." But that's not all...
    When I right click on items I see the numbers again. Instead of "Open with" I get "N152" and there's an "N35" and "LB1" towards the bottom.
    I have no idea what's going on so I'm just going to do a clean install on my machine but I don't want to lose my apps. I don't have the original install DVDs for them anymore. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

    You don't lose them.  You can always redownload them from the app store after you log back in with your Apple ID.
    "Buy, download, and even redownload.
    You can install apps on every Mac you use and even download them again. This is especially convenient when you buy a new Mac and want to load it with apps you already own."

  • Any recommendations on how to do a clean install of Win 7 Pro OA?

    Hey Guys, I just got my new x201 and I'm looking to do a clean install of windows 7 pro (oa)
    any ideas on how to do it without using the rescue and recovery? im trying to avoid all the factory programs being installed, so i dont want to use the rescue and recovery option. my main concern is activation, but im also wondering what CD/DVD i would use to install the OEM/OA version since it didnt come with any media. does lenovo provide this if i need? i can already see performance decrease in some applications, and in just general use of the computer. any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
    i was also wondering if it would be a big deal if i got an SSD for this laptop, would thre be any activation issues with the OEM/OA version? 
    thanks in advance
    nick

    Another note Rescue and Recovery can create OS only disks instead of just factory reset and can also create as is which copies exactly how the PC is now. Not sure why no one on this forum knows that or atleast does not tell anyone. weird. Those options are under the create disks tab. Great for like what your needing to do. Install all the programs and make the as is disk to put on all 99 other PCs. Cheers! EDIT note: Nevermind my useless info posted above. I just confused R&R with OKR AGAIN. Does someone know how to use R&R that could post info. Can R&R create disks of the system as is like OKR can?

    if you're using the same computer hardware to reinstall your cs3, you don't need to deactivate first.
    but if there's a significant hardware change you can ask adobe support for an activation count reset. contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

  • Can I clean install a Windows 7 Pro System Builder on a Lenovo PC with Windows 8 preinstalled?

    Hi. I would like to clean install windows 7 on a Lenovo PC  that came with Windows 8 core preinstalled. I want to format the entire drive and remove windows 8 and clean install windows 7.  I already tried the clean install of Windows 7 Pro to get all of my drivers in line, and now I would like to buy a Product Key.
    Would  a Windows 7 Pro System Builder work in my case? Would it work just as smoothly as a retail version? I understand that the System Builder is an OEM version that includes the Product Key, COA, and DVD) Just want to make sure before I buy the System Builder version of Windows 7 Pro.  Thanks.

    that should be retail since it seemed to be used for pc upgrades either way your new system builder key should work. those are called refresh because they re-released them sincea bug was found in thier installers. Do you have any key in the computer atm? or is windows just waiting to be activated? 
    EDIT: its a good copy look here>  http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/14-windows-7-direct-download-links
    Should you want to use the DVD images permanently, and don't own a product key yet, you can order a Windows 7 OEM or retail version from Amazon. The OEM reinstallation versions contain a DVD with a product key just like the retail versions. They are significantly cheaper, but lack a proper box packaging, and don't include technical support by Microsoft. The OEM key will work with the Digital River downloads, so you can just pick the cheapest one. Sometimes better editions are the cheaper ones, so all of the following links to Amazon offers might be worth checking. I've already tried to find good deals for all editions and linked to them here:

  • Clean install of Windows 7 Pro or Enterprise creates update issues on Pavilion G6 notebooks

    Hello,
    Our small company has 5 older HP Pavilion g6 notebooks running Window 7 Home edition.  We wanted to make them, and a few other Acer laptops, part of our domain.  So, we did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro (you can't upgrade with a volume license key).  After the install, the HP laptops have windows update issues and currupt installs.  The Acer laptops installed with no issues.   I've tried installing the Enterprise version with the same results.  I tried installing from dvd and usb, both with the same results.  Any idea?
    Thank You

    Hi, Sorry for the late reply. It seems to be kinda stable now.  Updates would never work from the getgo.  I had to reinstall update agent a few times and run the update troubleshooter found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/windows-update-issues/en-us  Until I got it working, I used Autopatcher to install updates. However, the computer isn't stable enough though to allow someone to use it for work.  I don't recommend doing a clean install on these machines.

  • Icloud doesn't work after a clean install of windows 8 pro and office 2010

    After installing the  'iCloud Control Panel for Windows v2.0' on my cleanly built laptop. I now getting the following error after activation the mail option under the iCloud Control Panel 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again'..
    I have done this add also added a second email address and change the new email address to be the default email address.
    I've also done the following as well....
    Ideally the error message you have mentioned is related to iCloud. But you may try these steps as you have already tried re-installing the iCloud control panel and sign in back to sync with Outlook:
    Check if there is any new updated version of iCloud released for Windows 8.
    1. Sign out from iCloud control Panel.
    2. Go to Outlook -> Click on File -> Options -> Add-ins.
    3. Select Com Add-ins in Manage -> Click on GO.
    4. Disable all the Add-ins -> Click OK to save the settings.
    Now go to iCloud Control panel and sign into the iCloud account. Open Outlook and check if you are able to sync.
    however the same original error still accures. can i also point out i have delete the all the os and applications and started again by rebuilding the os windows 8 pro but this time using ms office 2013 and the error 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again' happens again als did option 1-4 from above as well and the error still happens.
    Any Idea's?

    Windows 8 is not supported on Boot Camp, that may or may not be part of your issue but it makes troubleshooting difficult. Post in Microsofts forums as well, that error message is not limited to Boot Camp installations, regular Windows users also get it.

  • Yoga 2 Pro BIOS UI corrupted after clean install Win 8.1 Pro

    Hi all.
    First of all sorry for my bad English.
    And here is my problem:
    I just bought a new laptop "Yoga 2 Pro". Because I have a legal copy of Windows 8.1 Pro I decided to reinstall the system. Before re installing BIOS UI looked normal but after re installation of the operating system BIOS UI looks strange and can not use it. You can see it on the attached photos. I tried to reinstall the system a few times but immediately after installation BIOS UI looked like in the pictures. Interesting that after removing system from SSD, BIOS UI is starting to look normal and is fully functional. I even tried different versions of the operating system because I thought that the cause lies with the ISO file. The effect has always been the same.
    Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this problem?
    I will be grateful for any suggestions.

    I did try removig the Lenovo energy management software, but that didn't work. I also then reinstalled and tried setting it to Performance mode. However, I didn't look for a Windows power mgmt solution.
    What's weird is that after I powered down and used the Novo button to check the BIOS version (just to confirm what I said earlier), when I restarted Windows again I did not see the Hyper-V error message. I haven't restarted again, but will check again tomorrow morning when Windows starts again.

  • T400 win xp clean, installed everything....but still complains about a pci device driver?

  • I have Adobe Photoshop 10 installed on my MacBook Pro but cannot get it to type an O with Umlauts as it does on the keyboard outside Photoshop

    I have Adbobe Photoshop 10 on my MacBook pro but when using it cannot get an O with Umlauts, which are easily done outside Adobe.  I feel sure that it must be possible, but nothing I have tried has succeeded.  Can anyone help?

    How are you trying to get the Ö? By holding down the O key or by pressing Option-U to get the umlauts and then press the O?
    I have a later version of Photoshop and am able to type Ö using the "Option-U + O" method, but not using the "hold down O" method. My guess is this has to do with the type engine inside Photoshop. Adobe apps tend to use a different type engine because it is capable of things the OS type engine cannot do.
