How to install USB driver for Windows?
I'm trying to connect my LG VS980 phone to a Windows XP computer. I'm having difficulty installing the USB driver.
After following several false trails, I found what I think is the right file: on a "Product Support" page which says it's for a "G2 Verizon VS980," there's a button labeled, "Install the USB DRIVER / USB DRIVER for Windows / DOWNLOAD." I clicked the button and downloaded a file 8 MB file. Its name is LG. Not LG.exe or LG.msi or LG.zip. Just LG.
When I double click the file, Windows quite reasonably asks me what program to use to run it. I don't know what program to use any more than Windows does.
There's a link labeled "Instructions... LG G2 VS980 SOFTWARE UPDATE below the download button. When I click it, it loads instructions for installing software on the phone.
Can anyone make sense of this for me?

>...what you're looking to do a transfer with...?
Initially I want to download pictures taken with the phone's camera. I've considered other uses for a USB connection that I can explore once it's working. I'm puzzled by the question, though. Why should the type of data I want to transfer affect the fact that I can't find an installable driver? I wonder whether my question means the same thing to you as it does to me.
Because photos and music are the basic media people want to transfer between their phones and computers. (Computers in this sense are laptops, desktops, note books etc.) So the question to you was valid.
>Also, have you tried any other computers?
No. Again, I'm puzzled. What difference would another computer make? Would I be able to find a download from one computer that I can't find from another? (Only by blind chance.) Might another computer be able to execute or load a file with no filetype? (Only if it has magical powers.)
Different computers may work where the computer you own evidently does not work. It is good to check the connection of the device to another computer to rule that out. I will answer the obvious of different operating systems and how they function.
>And which software version if your phone currently running?
That question makes sense. Unfortunately I can't answer it. I've looked up how to find the version number, and the instructions tell me to select an "About phone" item in the Settings menu, which doesn't exist.
Doesn't exist? open the Settings Menu go all the way to the bottom (scroll down) the last entry is "ABOUT PHONE" click it. It will give hardware and software versions operating system number etc. Its there trust me. My wife just bought this phone and loves it.
>Often times, the device drivers you're prompted to install are supported solely by the computer's software.
I'm not sure what you're saying here. Taken at face value, it's a trivial and obvious: any driver that one installs on any computing device is supported solely by (i.e., depends on) the device's software. But how does that relate to the question about the version of Android? Android runs on the phone; the driver has to run on the computer.
You stated you are using an older Windows XP computer, I can tell you I hooked my wife's phone to our Windows 8.1 computer and no drivers were necessary. It came up with an option on the phone screen and I chose USB Mass Storage for the connection. This option is also in the phones settings. Read the manual it has loads of information form you to use.
The device had a drive letter assigned and it was labeled LG-Network and once you double click it the folders for music, photos, etc. are all there. Via using windows manager you can simply do a copy and paste to and from the different folders and drives with ease.
Good Luck

How do I install the Display Driver (Video Card)?
Tools & Utilities CD doesn't work with Win7,,Hi
Im wondering that you installed Windows 7 on this oldie. In my opinion Windows XP would be the better choice but ok, you can do what you want ;)
Anyway, as far as I know your notebook is equipped with an Intel graphic card so I would recommend downloading the driver form Intel directly because the Toshiba website shows only Windows XP display drivers.

In the bootcamp installation it asks me to create a bootable USB drive for Windows Installation. To do so, I must choose an ISO image. What is that? When I click "choose" I don't understand the options presented. Is this the destination of the partition or where Windows will reside on the Mac? Why does it also indicate the the destination disk si my WD Passport Back up drive?
OK, so I have an apple superdrive hooked up to my mini (along with my Passport back up drive). I also have the discs for both 64bit and 32bit Windows along with the product key. I am still not sure what to do when faced with the options after "choose".

Tecra 8200: I can't install Wlan driver for Windows XP
Hello ,
i can't find wireless driver for windows xp. I have Tecra 8200. I try to install a lot of drivers of the official page of Toshiba for Tecra 8200 but the drivers do not work.
If anyone know how i can install wireless in my tecra 8200, please let me know.Hi
Firstly what I want say is the Tecra 8200 was not delivered with Windows XP and you will not find any Wlan drivers for WinXP on the Toshiba website.
I have checked it and there are only drivers for W2k, NT, and W98SE.
But as far as I know the unit was delivered with the ORiNOCO specification Wlan miniPCI Card Wireless LAN standard: 802.11b
In this case I would recommend searching in the net for such drivers.
Unfortunately, this is all what I can suggest. -
How TO Share XSAN DRIVE for Windows PC
Good day .
I spend 1 day for sharing Xsan Drive for Windows Users.
For Mac Users it is not problem , But Mac can share only User Documents and share files with Windows PCs.
I found 1 solution with SAMBA. SMB.
I whant to get Apple solution for it. I dont whant to use anothere software to share files.
Thanks.It is not clear what you are asking.
Do you want to share the XServe RAID data to Windows clients?
What machine is the XServe RAID connected to? Is it connected to a Mac?
By default Mac OS X Server will only share user home directories. To share other directories you can use Workgroup Manager (Tiger) or Server Admin (Leopard) to specify additional share points.
The Mac will not automatically share any volume to network users. That is a security risk, so you have to tell it which directories to share. -

HP PAVILON DV4 1428dx company installed OS is vista...Upgrade to windows 7 -32bits
I have been having troubles like BSOD, NETIO.sys and computer crashes evey 5minutes.
it is now stable without any problems and only the sound driver refuses to install.
Please advise how to update driver for W7 as it is not available on the HP site.Hi:
Did you try the Vista driver? Normally they work fine for W7.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-69143-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...=
Another thing you can try is to be connected to the internet. Click on the audio controller in the device manager. Click on the Driver tab. Click on Update Driver and select the automatic search.
Sometimes W7 will pull down a driver from the Windows Update site.
If the above 2 suggestions don't work, try this driver which seems to be the same as the Vista one, but for Windows 7.

Thanks

suk4023Hi Sukande,
Deployment procedure is same irrespective of operating system.
On AIX, you have to copy the file com.sap.aii.adapter.lib.sda to your desktop and modify using winrar as explained in the below article and copy the modified file back to the respective path on AIX server.

Portege M400 - How to install Toshiba Utilities for Windows 7?
I've upgraded my Portege M400 to Winows 7 (32bit) which went fine. However, cant find how to get and install the utilities I had included with the XP Tablet version.
Can anyone suggest how to get them (I understand they were available for Vista)?
TIA.
KrisHi
The Toshiba Utilities that you mean are only designed for Windows XP. On Windows Vista and Windows 7 you need only the Toshiba Value Added Package. This package contains all what you need.
Portege M400 doesnt support Windows 7 but you can try to install the Vista drivers. The most of them are also work on Windows 7.
As far as I know you also need Toshiba Button Support on this model.
