If I create a restore point will I have the old sound driver working

I got this notice:
"Dear Customer,
You can enjoy improved sound when you use an updated sound driver on the pre-installed sound system
on your notebook.
To install the updated sound driver follow the steps below:
1. Click Start and click Control Panel.
2. In the Control Panel Home view, click Uninstall a program
3. Select Realtek High Definition Audio Driver and uninstall the driver by following the instructions on
the screen.
4. Download the updated driver from the Toshiba website
http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/sound-20080305155003.zip
5. Unpack the downloaded driver.
6. Change to the driver folder and double click the Setup.exe to start the installation.
7. Follow the instructions on the screen."
May I ask
If I create a restore point before ding this, if it all goes wrong will I be able to system restore and have the old sound driver working?
Is the driver folder found in Device Manager and Sound, Video and Game Controllers?
Many thanks.
Peter

Hi Peter,
Yes, if you would create the restore point before you will perform the driver installation then you will be able to restore the system to the early time point and you will get the old sound driver back on you system.
I think this is a good idea to create the restore point.
Bye

  • Unable to create a restore point

    tried to use a restore piont but none was found then tried to create one but every time it says no restore piont found,did this due to black screen after log in.

    metwinger,
    Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
    I do not know what the problem might be -- the following instructions might be helpful:
    Create a Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR  Create a restore point Win8
    Idea:
    See the Document (above):
    At number 3 where it says "
    "Select a disk to store the restore point system files from the list, usually (C, and then click Create."
    In Figure 3 Creating a restore point
    Under: Protection Settings
    NOTE:
    It might help if you click on your Available Drive (for example, your "C" drive that is "On) and highlight the drive -- THEN click to Create the Restore Point.

  • Creating System Restore Points in Windows Server 2012

    Searching for "Create a restore point" on Windows Server 2012, brings up a link that when clicked takes you to System Properties. Once there, there is no System Protection tab or option to create a system restore point. Windows Server Backup
    is installed and functioning.
    Is this feature available in Windows Server 2012? Was it replaced with Shadow Copies for Shared Folders?
    Thanks for any insight you can provide.

     HI,
    To create a system restore point, run msconfig.exe, that will launch a UI, click the tools tab, select system restore, that should invoke a UI which asks if you want to  restore to an earlier version or do you want to create a new restore point. I clicked
    "create a new restore point" The problem that I ran into is that when I click that button is I receive the error: can't find "C:\Windows\System32\rstrui.exe". That's the .exe which supports the "Create / restore point' processes. I
    posted a question about the missing .exe on the windows > windows 8.1 > Repair and recovery forum and was told to post it here. :>) The subject title of that post is "rstrui.exe Create a system restore point on windows server 8 Standard".
    That post documents the steps that I followed trying to create a system restore point. (FYI: I'm not trying to backup any drives. I know what a system restore point is and what backup is. They are two different animals). I want to create a restore
    point prior in order to prep for installing an App. So, If a problem occurs; the registry keys and app files can be backed out to some extent. BTW: Create system restore point on windows 8.1does work perfectly well, there's a different UI. I just didn't
    know where to post the initial problem.regards,Steve

  • MSE Creates A Restore Point Every Time It Updates

    MSE creates a redundant restore point every time it updates.
    Is there any way to stop this from happening without
    disabling the system from creating restore points entirely?
    Thanks.

    Thanks.
    The HD is 500GB. I think by default 2% or 10GB is reserved for restore points. Once the limit is reached the restore points are overwritten - last in, first out. I have a preferred restore point established that I'd like to be preserved.
    My concern is the way in which Windows Update is used to update MSE definitions. Everytime (daily) MSE AV definitions are D/L it creates another restore point. Eventually it will overwrite the restore point I established. I guess I can always remove the restore points MSE creates using CCleaner or use a different AV program but it's something that should have been addressed by MS. They should have provided users with the option of not having MSE create restore points. I know I can always turn the feature off altogether and create restore points manually but there are times when having a restore point created automatically can come in handy - like when installing a program for example.
    Aside from this issue I've also noticed other little annoyances throughout the Windows 7 / 64bit - Home Premium OS.
    I'm sure I'll discover more annoyances with this OS over time.

  • On my Mac (vers 10.7.5) I use Disk Utilites to burn a DVD. The DVD won't play on the Mac but will play on my Windows PC and on a DVD player. A DVD created on my PC will play on the Mac. Any ideas why this is happening?

    I used iDVD to create an IMG file
    You created the video DVD, the IMG file, with iDVD and just burned it with Disk Utility. As Klaus1 pointed out Disk Utility can't create video DVDs.

    Hi
    Pages 5.0 and 10.9.
    While App Store tells me there is no update avalable to Pages, which it says was installed Nov. 4, its the old Avatar/logo thingo and, as I say, it will not open the Pages docs created on my MacBook, which definiitely does have the new Pages running smoothly.

    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • My iphone 5 has 7GB, went to apple store the guy said my backup that I was restoring from was corrupted so I have to restore it as a new phone wondering that if I do this and it does not work, will iTunes have my old backup saved?

    Yes, if you have been backing up on a regular basis.
    If this is your first time backing up, then no.
    you can check edit - preference - backup - see what is listed

  • Due to NAS issues, when I started a new time machine backup it did not have the old backups available. My question is do I need to delete them or will time machine automatically reclaim the space?  Only one Sparse Bundle, same name.

    Due to NAS issues, when I started a new time machine backup it did not have the old backups available. My question is do I need to delete them or will time machine automatically reclaim the space?  There is only one sparse bundle but when I enter time machine I don't see my historic backups.  I use a synology DS212 for my time machine.  Started a new backup which is 218gb but it says 618 gb is occupied  therefore it looks like 2 or 3 backups are still on the disk. Before my NAS issues the last backup was in 2014.  As you can see there is a second sparse bundle from 2012.  Not sure what that is.

    This is an old message now, but what happened to me similarly was:
    I had a major computer crash and through complicated pathways ended up reinstalling (Mavericks) as a new user (long story).
    At least I had good Time Machine backups on an NAS drive (Synology DS212j), or so I thought - when I started Time Machine up again, the old backup file was gone, replaced by a new one using my "new computer" name. The old file was gone both by directly mounting the NAS drive and by clicking "Enter Time Machine".
    It's like I had {OldShareName}.sparsebundle and then it was replaced by {NewShareName}.sparsebundle, all of the old info vanished.
    (I have spent a week finding old files elsewhere and have completed a satisfactory self-restore. It pays to "archive" [my own variation of] as well as "back-up".)
    My belief is that if this were a wired-netword-drive, e.g. plugged right into my iMac with a USB cable, then the old file would have remained.
    But this is an NAS drive, connected directly to my Airport wireless router, and I don't know the significance of the fact that it stores its Time Machine backups as "sparsebundle" files rather than simply as plain(er) files.
    As usual when things get complicated with computers (not just Apple computers) there was never a warning message. Something like "YOU'RE ABOUT TO DELETE A TIME MACHINE BACK-UP FILE!!!" would have made my life a lot simpler.
    BTW, I did try a "restore from Time Machine" option the first thing I had my "new computer" (old hardware, 2009 iMac) up and running, using Migration Assistant, and it ran for many hours and then failed in the wee hours - what that has to do with anything I'm not sure.
    I'm not sure that I have a question about this other than "why do these things happen to me?", but it's a warning. Apart from that I've been very happy with the stability and reliability (but not the cost or set-up complexity) of NAS vs. directly-cabled external drives.

    Have you done a restore of the phone to see if that fixed the problem with the speaker? If that doesnt help then you probably damaged something inside the phone when you dropped it.
    If you're annoyed by the problem, you can always get a replacement phone

    I'm not so sure about that. I'd say the jury's still out until someone gets one and tries to use it single-link.

  • If a new apple id sign in.what will happen to the old apple id if you erase or reset the phone?

    I buy a new iphone 5s and the store open it and put his apple id to download some stuff.. And after that i try to make my own apple id. What will happen if i erase all data and it is in need of apple id.. Will it be the old apple id or my apple id?? I heard that if i erase all data. The apple id of which i buy my iphone will appear and mine will not??

    If the store setup the phone with an Apple ID/Password, that is not yours, & turned on Find My Phone, then you will need that Apple ID/Password to re-activate the phone. Called Activation Lock. Read here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695
    So, go back to the store where you got this phone & have them fix things.
