Power Management Driver wont install in Windows 7

Hi All, I've been trying to get my blue Fn keys to work on my recently purchased SL500. Volume and screen brightness keys work (but no on-screen display), however Fn+F3 & F5 do nothing, as does the blue ThinkVantage button. Installed drivers via System Update, however every time I get the message "Package did not install - ThinkPad Power Management Driver for SL Series". Power Manager is installed and running but the driver is not listed under Program & Features. I'm guessing the lack of this driver is the problem. Anyone else seen this or have a fix ? Thanks.

Please visit: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds014985 but don't download the most current version (3.89.0100) at the top. If you look at the readme, you'll see that the SL500 is not included in the supported systems list.
Instead, scroll downwards to the version table and have a look at the readme for v3.88.0000. You'll see your machine in the supported list, so you could give that one a try, if you want.
Regards.

Wont install on WIndows

Wont install on WIndows, what ever package I create with CC Acrobat Pro just doesn't install. Everything else works but not Acrobat Pro. It runs the installer, but nothing get installed. 32 & 64 bit versions of windows.
The stand alone Pro download works, but only if I'm an Admin, then I have to run the updates before I can register. I can't register unless I run the updates.

Hi Uschi13,
I understand that you tried to install the printer on Windows 8 and were having issues. I suggest that you do an Uninstall of the Printer Software and then a Install of the Printer Software. Use the Printer Install Wizard to do the install as it will go and look for the correct driver for you.
Let me know if helps.

Photosmart c6180 driver disapears after restarting Windows 7

Problem is: Photosmart c6180 driver disapears after restarting Windows 7
Operating System is: Windows 7
Connection is Wireless
Printer is Photosmart c6180
Driver is for Windows
7 and has been downloaded multiple several times from the HP Website
HP Support was not help: they could not even get the printer to work even when it was wired USB since they refused to remove the driver first. I have old computers and use USB Hubs so it puts a strain on the resources to hook up to much on the USB Ports evern with the extra power they have.
I have removed the driver and reinstalled it at least 2-3 times a month since January. The computer sees and installs the printer and it works fine as long as I do not shut down the computer. However whenever there are any updates for windows the computer needs to be restarted and then the printer won't work anymore.
I tryed this today which I found on the internet and it did not work either.
Click on another printer or the Microsoft XPS Document Writer
Click on Printer server properties in the top menu
Choose Drivers in the Installed printer drivers select the printer that was uninstalled in step 3.
Click on Remove and when asked choose Remove driver and driver package and click on ok.
Install the Windows 7 software for the printer.
Does anyone have anything else I can try. I reinstall the printer driver again for the second time today and it allways works just fine if I just never had to restart the computer it would work fine.
I have reloaded th

Ok, Below is what worked for me somewhat.
Okay ... try downloading and saving a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe to your PC from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now download a trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.php
Open the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR, and try to run the standalone install of Apple Application Support from the AppleApplicationSupport.msi you find in there.
It works now BUT there are still problems. It is not allowing or recognizing my Cd/DVD player and i CANT burn. Looking still for this fix.

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

HP Photosmart Plus 209a-m install for Windows 8 not working, driver problem?

I am trying to install the driver/software for HP Photosmart Plus 209a-m on my Windows 8 laptop and keep getting "the Wizard has detected a problem with the driver software for the selected printer". Seems like a catch-22 because that's why i'm trying to install it. I have a brand new hard drive (as of today) with nothing else on it except Norton, which i just installed. I shouldn't have corrupted drivers yet. if it's missing, why can't HP get it installed? I've downloaded hppiw and trying to install that. after i get the "problem with the driver" message, i select the option to install the full suite + driver, and it attempts another download (why is it doing that when i already downloaded the software?), then fails with "Your download was cancelled. You can attempt the download again by clicking Retry". Anybody know how to get me out of this loop and get the software installed?

hi,
sometimes norton does block the installation or the drivers download...
i would suggest you to turn of norton and complete the installation and then turn it back on..

Photosmart C7250 will not install with Windows 7

I have bought a new computer wth Windows 7. My Photosmart C7250 will not install on this operating system wirelessly or by USB. The driver will install so that I can print only when I plug it in, but I cannot achieve full functionality. When I try to install it over the wireless network,, it gives me a fatal error (code 14116417). The printer does connect to the wireless network, though. I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times, and have run out of options. Any ideas, besides buying new??? I really like this printer!!! And thank you in advance!

I is likely not your printer. Here are a couple of things to check:
1. Disable your security system's firewall.
2. Reboot your router and try again.
Tell me about your network - router brand/model, encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc) and ISP type (DSL, Cable, etc).

Use a windows dvd drive to install bootcamp windows

Hi!
I know it is possible, I looked up google about it but it's pretty difficult to find...
My macbook's dvd drive is broken and I don't have enough money to buy another one nor another external dvd drive. So I would like to use my girlfriend's laptop dvd drive to boot up windows install on my macbook.
How do you think I could do it???
Thanks a lot!

Tom:
Unfortunately it is impossible with the current procedure of boot camp installation of Windows. This is because the drivers for the ports (USB/Firewire) are not installed until Windows is completely installed first on an intel Mac.
Now, if you are planning on installing windows as virtual machine via Parallels or VMWare Fusion then there may be a way to do so by using the windows pc over the network by OSx.

Ethernet controller driver not installing after Windows Server 2008 installation on Cisco UCS blade

I am using MDT 2010 to deploy Windows Server 2008 to a Cisco UCS B200 blade. The OS and hotfixes install with no problem. The system reboots and attempts to connect to the deployment share to continue with the task sequence and I receive an error stating
"A connection to the deployment share could not be made. The following networking device did not have a driver installed. PCI\VEN_1137&DEV_0043&SUBSYS_00481137&REV_A2"
The driver in question is the driver for the Ethernet controller for the UCS blade. More specifically, it is the network driver for the Palo card in the UCS Chassis. When I Ignore or Abort the install, I am able to manually install the driver and restart the
task sequence. The build then completes successfully with no further issue. I just cannot seem to automate the driver install. Has anyone dealt with this type of issue?

Vik and stealthfield - thank you for your responses.
I was preparing a script to manually move the driver into the c:\windows\inf location when I had to stop to create a new task sequence for a different build. It was while building this task sequence that I found the soulution to the problem.
In the Post Install -> Inject Drivers step of the Task Sequence, I noticed that it was executing a command of type "Inject Drivers" with a selection profile of "All Drivers" and "Install only matching drivers
from the selection profile" selected.
I changed this to run a command of type "Run Command Line" and specified that it execute "%Scriptroot%\ZTIdrivers.wsf". I noticed that this was selected in one of my other builds that was working properly, so I thought I'd
give it a try. - IT WORKED.
So to sum up, the solution was to change the type of command being executed in the "Post Install -> Inject Drivers" step of the task sequence. After this change, the machine came up and continued the task sequence with no further issues.
Thanks again for the responses - They were helpful and I do appreciate it.

TCP / IP Protocol Driver - not installed (using Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Service Pack 1

I am using a ThinkPad T520 laptop. Lenovo Solutions Center keeps referring me (with a yellow exclamation mark) to the Device Manager and alerting me to a "non-critical" error. The message is "TCP / IP Protocol Driver - not installed".
I have found numerous pieces of advice for Windows XP and Vista - but very little for Windows 7. I have however tried the Microsoft "Fix it" solution and it had no effect.
I am still able to connect to the internet via Ethernet cable and wifi. It is however worrying that the warning keeps being raised.
Does anyone know how I can fix it?

Hi Tripplec.
Thanks for the reply. I am away from home at present without my ThinkPad, so will try it at the weekend. I am an experienced computer user but this is a brand new machine and I have never had a laptop that produced error messages without providing any suggested fixes. It seems that Lenovo is not suitable for ordinary home users, but only for computer engineers. Sadly that is not me... so before I plunge in, can I just check some details?
1. You suggest removing the offending network adapters in device manager. Which are the offending adapters that cause a TCP/IP protocol driver error? I am nervous of removing the wrong things and making it worse!
2. You also suggest that I go to Network Connections via Control panel, properties of adapter, Install and select the desired Protocol(s) and install them. Is that an alternative fix to 1 above - or an essential follow-on after removing the offending adapters? (Last week I searched the machine and the Lenovo support page of drivers - and never found a TCP/IP protocol driver. If you know where one can be found, I would prefer to instal a new driver, rather than delete other devices and hope that the machine reinstalls them later!).
Much obliged for your assistance.
