Installing drivers for T61 after re-installing OS

Hi,
I have just re-installed XP Pro onto this computer.  I did not use the lenovo recovery disks so i will need to now download the drivers.  But i am confused as to EXACTLY WHAT i need to download.  Can someone help me.  I did download the ethernet driver so i can connect to the internet.  But i am not sure what else to download.  The lenovo support/download site lists several drivers but again i am not sure what i need and if there is any order required to the download.  Can someone help?

Hi welchs101!
ThinkVantage System Update will find which drivers and software apply to your system, and let you choose which ones to install.
Hope this helps!
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • CUDA support of nVidia drivers for T61

    May be a redundant question, but does the nvidia drivers for T61 available on Lenovo's website contain CUDA support (I know from nVidia's website that nvidia Quadro NVS140M is a CUDA-enabled product)? Just wondering before I go ahead and install the drivers, toolkit and SDK for CUDA on the computer.

    The drivers from Microsoft support CUDA and all features of the 570m on Windows 7.  I have not tried installing them on Vista, but it should work there too.
    No hack or tweaks required.  Just download, install, and CUDA works right out of the box.  This also boosted my "Experience Index Score" by a few points on Windows 7.
    Get them here.  You must use IE to access this site.

    Try on Vista and let us know.

  • Using bootcamp 5.1, Windows 7 home is installed but missed installing the drivers disk. How to install the Mac drivers for windows after the fact.

    While using Bootcamp 5.1, and OS X 10.8.2, I partitioned my Mac disk with 80 Gigs for Windows 7 home and the install went great, but I must have missed the time when I was to install the Mac drivers disk to install the drivers for Windows,(when in Windows I don't have a mouse or optical drive.)  Is there a way to install the drivers after Windows is installed, or do I have to go through the whole process all over again?

    Press X key after the startup sound to boot into OS X. Then, open Boot Camp Assistant, download Boot Camp drivers and burn them into a USB drive or DVD. Finally, boot in Windows and install drivers

  • Please help with a few drivers for z60m after fresh install

    I got a bad virus(several actually) that I could not eradicate. I was advised to just wipe and reinstall the OS since it is not under warranty anymore. I could not find the recovery disk, must have been lost inthe last military move could not find a replacement recovery disk at the IBM website so  I went out and bought an xpprof OS thinking it should not be that hard to find any drivers XP does not provide . I had no problems doing that on our acer laptop and a friends HP laptop before so was pretty confident.. Boy was I wrong this has been the reinstall from hell. I reinstalled the audiodrivers from theIBM website but the speakers still don't work. The laptop will not recognize the wireless, even after installing the drivers for that and I can't find anything out about why the dock does not work, I assume there are drivers for that too. I also have 4 ugly yellow question marks that I can't seem to get rid of in device manager.  At this point I am already out the price of XP Prof but I really need this laptop my husband took the acer laptop when he deployed to Afghanistan, only because I was confident I could get this one fully functional.  I see now my self confidence was badly misplaced ,even though I am working on a degree in computer technology this laptop is kicking my tush.
    Is there anyone that could help please
    1. help me find why my speakers still dont work even though they are recognized as soundmax in device manager
              I found several references to this issue in the forums but there does not seem to be a resolution
    2. help me figure out why my laptop suddenly (after the fresh install)does not know it even has a wireless capability even after numerous attempts at installing the driver(driver seems to install just finebut upon reboot there is still no wireless available
    3. figure out how I can get my dock to work again
    the laptop has always worked great til now and all these things were functional before the virus and reinstall of the OS)
    4.  get rid of ugly yellow exclamation points under Other Devices, I am sure they must be important( I am sure at least one or more of them has to do with the wireless)
    sorry this is so long Im  just frustrated thanks so much for anyone that can give some guidance on this

    hanaleia, welcome to the forum,
    download and install ThinkVantage System Update, it should get the drivers for you. Please ensure you read down the site as you may need to install a patch for XP SP2.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • WinXP 64 Bit Drivers for T61 Thinkpad (7661-G28)

    I installed Vista64 on an additional drive and was constantly running into application crashes as well as what apppears to be system pauses when a window was in focus.   Things just froze and if you brought up task manager they would start responding again.  I installed windows Vista Ultimate (SP1) for this. I was trying to take advantage of all my memory in the system 4GB brecause I am trying to setup a demo disk with Virtual Workstation so I need the memory for the virtual environment. 
    Anyway I gave up (after learning about how to remove the new Vista boot loader on a dual boot machine) and decided to go back to 64 bit XP to get a stable system.  The problem with this is of course the lack of driver support for 64 bit XP on thinkpads.  I have read  most of the posts in the forum on 64 bit options for XP and I have tried all of the suggestions for them.  I still do not have but one drivers active.  I was able to get the Ethernet driver working but still can not load the wireless (4965AG), audio(SoundMax Digital HD AUdio), SM Driver, or video (Intel 965 Chipset) drivers.  Has anyone had any luck with a model T61 and 64 bit drivers for Windows XP(64)?
    Any help is appreciated.

    i've never tried before but my personal opinion, it won't work.

    I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011.
    Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

    Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
    After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.  The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard. 
    The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
    To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2 Insert the Mac OS X disc.  If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
    Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
    If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
    Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
    4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware  Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
    5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
    6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
      If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers 
    If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
    To repair Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Start up your computer in Windows.
    2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
    3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway. 
    If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
    Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

  • T440 - DWM service is crashing in windows 7 64 bit after installing drivers for USB Replicator

    Dear All,
    Good day!,
    This will be my first post to the community and looking forward for an expert advise on the issue am facing with Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video drivers in Enterprise 64bit running on T440, following are the details:
    Environment:
    Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit installed on T440 where all drivers are up to date for all devices though (System Update 5) tool.
    Requirement: Usage of Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video (M01060) which will be connected to . 
    Steps followed:
    Connected to the port replicator before installing the device driver. 
    Download and installed device driver from the link: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-73088
    3.    Issue: After installing the device driver above, system reboots and after logging back using the local admin account or any other windows account (DWM service) crashes along with any other software installed (Ms. Office, Lync, IE9, ...ext). Tried uninstalling the driver, rebooted and Windows runs smoothly again back with no errors.
    4.    Questions:
    T440 hardware compatible with Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video ? 
    Which USB version Lenovo ThinkPad USB Port Replicator with Digital Video has ? (2.0 or 3.0) ? did I missed some special drivers for USB ? 
    Any other links for the above driver can be found for Win 7 Enterprise 64bit ?
    For 3 days, am searching the web for a similar issue, found and followed all troubleshooting steps mentioned by others but none of them helped. I will really appreciate your support if any expert can advise. Thanks in advanced

    I have the same problem with my T400 updated to Win 7 pro.  Not happy.  

  • After I installed 10.6.8, my HP Officejet lost the ability to print 2-sided.  I installed the latest HP drivers for Snow Leopard, but the 2-sided option is turned off and greyed out.

    After I installed 10.6.8, my HP Officejet 7310 lost the ability to print 2-sided.  I installed the latest HP drivers for Snow Leopard, the 2-sided option shows up in the print window but is turned off and greyed out.  Also the scan function won't let me scan at any density greater than 150 dpi.  I have talked to Applecare and to HP tech support and been told "too bad."  Any help would be appreciated.

    THANK YOU!  And who are you?  I spent a couple of hours on the phone with Applecare and with HP Tech Support and they couldn't fix what you did in a few words.  Many thanks!  John

  • TS1369 unable to install usb drivers for ipod/ipad/iphone, even after following steps from diagnostic testing

    I have followed the steps suggested to reinstall the USB drivers for my ipad/ipod/iphone products, but receive a message that says one of the installers cannot perform the installation at this time. I've tried numerous "other" times, but get same msg.

    Hi 2010c309a,
    I understand you are having issues with your scan software on your computer. I recommend a complete uninstall reinstall.
    The HP uninstaller program might be available on the printer CD, depending on the printer model. If you have the printer CD readily available, try this option to quickly check whether you have the HP Uninstaller, and then run it. If you do not have the CD uninstall all HP printer software from the control panel. Here is a document you could look at for help.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c02259020&lc=en&product=3737195&tmp...
    First try to click the Windows icon, type services in the Search box, and then click or tap View Local Services. Scroll down to the Windows Installer. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started.
    Scroll down to Windows imagine Acquisition. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started.
    Restart the computer after this step and try installing again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • I need some old drivers to work after Lion install, any tweaks for that?

    My Protools interface isn't working (not compatible), some controlers i had for video games arn't reading drivers for them. Is there a fix for them? What if some of the drivers are never going to be updated, is there an app i can install?

    I have Firewire interfaces from Alesis as well as a Zoom R16 and an old Tascam US122 and NONE of the drivers will work with Lion. I've been in touch with Alesis and they say they're "working on it". Meanwhile I have a recording session booked for next week and it looks like I'm going to have to either cancel or revert to Snow Leopard to get the job done. I haven't ever had this much of an issue when updating the OS before. I'm trying to stay calm but I have to admit to being in a bit of a panic.
    Zoom support said it was a Lion problem and left me with the impression they weren't even investigating the issue. I haven't tried getting in touch with Tascam because the device itself is old.
    The Alesis gear includes a Multimix 16FW and an IO|26 which used the same driver in Snow Leopard.
    Any solutions that might get me going, particularly with the Alesis gear, would be greatly appreciated

  • Where would I find the drivers for an external device after I install it?

    Okay, so I need help. I installed a driver for osx 10.5 thinking that installing the software 10.7 would support it. If it did, then it created a bigger problem, which is I cannot create a USB Ethernet connection in the networks pane. Mind helping out and telling me what I should do?

    you would generally find the drivers for an external device on the manfacturers website.  However, with printers for example, I have recieved updates directly through Software Update.
