Just ordered a T400s what about drivers for win7

Hi, Just ordered a T400s it will come with Vista business english 3 questions: i think i will upgrade with win 7 home premium (either dutch or english) and because the machine has 4GB of Ram i think it'l be wise to use 64 bit?? (use photoshop cs4, windows office, internet) Can i buy an upgrade and do a clean and fresh install? Are the new software and drivers for this machine with win 7 available yet?

If you just bought the Vista machine it is probably eligible for the Windows 7 Upgrade Program.
Yes I would recommend 64-bit to make use of all of your 4GB RAM. If you start with 32-bit VIsta, you must do a clean install. If you start from 64-bit Vista, you can do an upgrade or clean install, your choice.
Released Windows 7 drivers are already starting to appear on the support pages. The official schedule is "on or about October 22nd". Beta drivers have been available for a while.
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • Tecra M3 - What about drivers for Windows Vista

    It is nearly one week after Vista premiere - and siell there is no drivers for Tecra M3!
    I've installed drivers form Tecra M5 (similar hardware) - and some of them works perfect - but some of them - doesn't work,
    When can I expect drivers support for my laptop form Toshiba?
    Actually - this is not to old laptop - it has Pentium M - 2,13, 2GB Ram, GF 6600TE 128MB... so it is profoundly enough for Vista
    But drivers and software like Toshiba Power Saver, or Fn keys? - when? anybody knows?
    Ps. sorry for my english,
    Thanks a lot
    mark

    Hi Mark
    If the notebook is not ??Vista capable?? I presume it will not be supported. I have older non-Vista supported Satellite. Vista runs well and I don??t care about Toshiba specific stuff.
    Probably notebook and PC manufacturers have decide to make some kind of ??dead line?? and all products produced before this line will not be supported. Bad for us consumers, but good for PC industry!

    Can I watch my rented movie for just 24 hours? What about the 30 days? The countdown on my library returned in days countdown rather than hours. Can anyone clarify me about this?

    Read the article you linked
    iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    How long do I have to watch a rented movie?
    You have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and 24 hours (in the US) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you've started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the movie will disappear from your iTunes library."

  • Finally upgrading from 10.5 to 10.6; what should I do about drivers for photo printer and Nikon slide scanner?

    Finally upgrading to 10.6 from 10.5.8. What do I need to do about drivers for my epson photo printer and nikon slide scanner? May be going all the way to 10.8.

    I suggest you determine if compatible drivers are available either in the OS X drivers package or directly from the manufacturer. The following has a link for application compatibility. You can check this, too:
    OS X- Printer and scanner software available for download
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
    If you need to purchase Lion contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
    Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
    Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Are my applications compatible?

  • K9N Neo-F v.3: what RAID drivers for the floppy?

    I downloaded the drivers that are suppose to be for the floppy install during the windows XP setup (using f6).  I found these by using the MSI website and searching for drivers for my motherboard model.  It specifically says they are raid drivers for floppy disk.  After unzipping this file, it creates a main folder called WinXP.  There are two subfolders inside that called "sata_ide" and "sataraid".
    now, from my experience windows has to see these drivers on the root of A:\ during installation.  Righ off the bat, I can tell this zip file is improperly formated to be used with a floppy for windows XP installation.  The files within the two subfolders are named the same, so you cant just place all of these drivers on the root drive without overwriting them.
    So, I made 3 floppies.  On one floppy I followed the directions given on the site where I downloaded the zip file:  Unzip the file and copy all files to the floppy.  This meant sub folders and all.  I created another floppy with ONLY the sataraid drivers directly in the root of A:.  I created a third with only the sata_ide drivers directly on the root of A:
    I created my striped array using 2 WD SATA II drives.  Status is healthy.  Upon installing windows, I hit f6 and inserted my floppy when prompted.  None of the floppies I created worked.  I even went the extra step and formatted and created partitions on each drive.  Still no dice.
    I need to know EXACTLY how to create the driver disk for this motherboard.  Links to the drivers or any extra information is greatly appreciated.  Anyone with experience in this realm on this particular motherboard, Id like to hear from you. 
    Oddly enough, I was able to build a RAID/0 config using an LSI PCI Raid controller and two Ultra 320 SCSI Seagate Cheetahs.  Something I was told prior to that this motherboard would not be able to do.  Now here I am struggling using drivers given to me directly from MSI with HDD's the motherboard completely supports

    Thanks for the help, the problem was a bad floppy ribbon cable , the raid is loaded.
    nice, well you should check floppy integrity 1st to make sure its working correctly.

  • HT204364 how do i just order prints?  i see options for ordering cards, books, etc. on my computer but not just prints

    HOw do I order prints?  I see options for cards, books, calendars and slideshows on my computer but not prints?

    What version of iPhoto are you using?  For iPhoto 9 click on the Share button at the bottom right of the iPhoto window and select Order Prints from the options presented:
    Note:  I recommend that you crop the photos to the print size you want before ordering so that you can determine what part of the  photos gets cropped out rather than let the photofinisher's software do the cropping.

  • What are Drivers (for XP OS) ?

    Hello
    I have heard that drivers are needed for the XP OS after it is installed?
    Could someone tell me what their role is?
    And how do i keep about knowing which driver/s to download?
    Thanks

    Hi - and welcome to the forums,
    I don't want to assume you know a lot about computers, so pardon me for some overly simplistic answers to your inquiry.
    Simply stated, you absolutely need those drivers! *Drivers are software bits and pieces which enable hardware to be recognized by the OS.* Without the proper drivers (think of them as translators) hardware devices such as RAM chips, processors, sound components, keyboards, video cards and displays, printers, etc. would not know what to do - nor - would the operating system (OS) know those hardware devices existed.
    When installing BootCamp within the Mac OS enviro, BC contains all of the necessary drivers which allow Windows (XP or Vista) to see the Mac's native hardware devices. Using again the analogy of a translator - all of these devices and hardware parts must speak a common language - literally - such that they function properly together and with the machine's operating system.
    As for knowing what to do during installation, if you stick with the standard Apple recommended order of BootCamp install business, you should be fine. Take the usual precautions when installing such system-invasive software:
    1. BACK-UP existing files
    2. Be certain your existing system is up-to-date with it's own software updates
    3. Have all necessary install discs at hand
    4. Consider putting the BootCamp partition on it's own harddrive. If you don't have that luxury, partition* your existing harddrive to accommodate the BootCamp XP environment.
    *Be advised that partitioning your existing drive means wiping-off all of it's existing contents/data - hence the recommendation to do this on a new, blank, clean drive.
    5. Be patient and don't panic - stick to the known rules and it will go smoothly.
    One last piece of advice to you, these forums are an excellent source for help, advice, etc. Try to read through some posts regarding BootCamp, installing XP, etc. - merely as a source of general knowledge and confidence-building know-how.
    Best of luck,
    mike p

  • What about support for CSS preprocessors?

    I love that Adobe is making all of these advancements in areas of HTML / CSS / JS / etc. but CSS preprocessors are becoming the way to "do things" and this is where I cringe when I have to use Dreamweaver and now recently Edge Code. If Adobe is all about the future, why not start including support for CSS preprocessors (most noteably SASS and LESS)?

    I think you would want to support both less and sass mainly because there are so many differnt opinions on what works best, I started out using less and then learned about sass and did a little research and decided sass had more to offer, but I Know there are sever folks who think less is easier to use,
    I think your biggest problem is getting people to open up something new such as Edge Code and decide what will this offer me that I can't get elsewhere, for example before I got creative cloud, I started with dreamweaver way back in the early days, latter on when jquery started getting popular I couldn’t seam to get code hinting to work, and there where a few random folks offering a half-assed plugin that didn't always work and between that and not being able to pay for the updates for dreamweaver and other products I looked around and found Aptana which I still use today because so far It has never been unable to do what I need and its free, now that I have just recently started using CC which is freaking awsome Im thinking about giving dreamweaver another shot, in-fact I was downloading it when I noticed edge code and decided to try it, the first thinks that I thought was how am I going to use sass with this.
    So that said I think to me the most annoying part of using sass is the setup which consists of the following steps, copy a folder I made and update on my local machine, which has all the basic structure such as css folder, js folder, an index that has the basic linking to folders and files then rename the folder change some of the basic things such as title and well the obvious things, then open terminal and do a sass —watch then carefully make sure I only point to the css folder I'm working in so I don't have the annoying delay you get if you point to a folder that has several projects in it, and then once its set up if I still have any ambitions to even work anymore I do my thing, so things I think would work great would be thus, and this is keeping in mind Im new to the edge products so some of this may already exist, I haven't spent allot of time in any of the apps,
    What if not only could I just drag my preset work folder(s) into Edge Code and get going but maybe have it auto start a sass watch if it detects a .sass file.
    I think code hinting and color are obvious needs.
    Maybe a button that would create a project folder and include some pre determined files in the folder and link to them.
    Maybe a option to work in sass mode.
    Link files between the edge apps, really I could go on forever I am more of a visual person so I made a sample of what it might look like if I could create a picture with my words and I'm sure I'm leaving things out, I don't have allot of time to really explore this like I would like, over all I think the edge apps are looking really positive and I can't wait to see where they go, I hope this helps and let me know if I over looked things.

  • Mac App Store Non-Commercial users only? What about Lion for businesses?

    When I read the Mac App Store agreement it indicates that the accounts are for 'non commercial' use. I supposed this was to stop companies purchasing an app and using 5 times at no extra cost.
    If we want to download and install the Lion update on our company Macs how are we supposed to do this? The same goes for the Server component.
    Further, I have used my own personal account to use a program in the office that I had purchased at home for playing quick games at lunch time, or for free apps like Twitter. Will these stop working if I have to create a company wide account just for Lion downloads?
    Lastly, our internet connection speed is very poor due to our geographic location. Will we need to download Lion separately for each computer?
    Sorry if Lion questions are a bit premature, but I'm trying to plan ahead.

    Apple is not actually here, just fellow Apple product users. Those business questions are probably best dealt with in a telephone call directly to Apple, either Apple HQ in Cupertino, CA, or at least the closest Apple Store.
    Your games are for you to freely install on computers that you own and control personally. That would seem to include a company computer issued to you. What you should not do is start installing the games and apps on the computers of your colleagues. And you should remove the games and apps when you return the computer to your business.
    You should be able to mix both company purchased software and your personal software while the computer is in your control, just remember that software can only be updated by the account through which it was purchased. So you would need to sign into your personal account to update your personal software on your company computer in your control.
    The software that comes through the MAS at this point is the drag & drop variety, the kind that has normally come on a disk or you download a disc image and drag the app to your Applications folder. With the MAS the software is downloaded and placed in the Apps folder for you. These apps can be copied to the other computers you own or have in your control. You do not need to download them to each computer, although you may do that as well.
    Apple has pretty much reserved more complicated installations for itself. Xcode downloaded as an Installer into the Applications folder. Lion will also come as an installer. The Installer does not have to be downloaded to each Mac, it can be copied to them over your local LAN or direct Ethernet or FireWire cable connections. Or burn to a disk. Then the Installer can be run to install Lion on each Mac. Based on your direct conversation with Apple regarding obtaining Lion for your business, you may also be able to create a common installation of Lion that you then clone to all of your company computers.

  • What About Australia For Belle

    Nokia Belle not available = Nokia Belle will not be launched for this product code and/or country - For Australia..
    What's Problem??
    why can't provide belle for Australia?

    Skyee's answer from another topic, the last sentance is the only one that matters:
    Q: Why is the update not available for my country/operator according to Nokia Belle Availability page?
    A: Nokia Belle is specifically tailored to each phone model and variant, which means that updates for some variants are at the moment still under creation. As usually we don’t comment on timelines, but your phone will notify you once the update is available (just switch on the software update autocheck in your software update app). We are also working very closely with our operator contacts to get operator variants tested and approved. Some countries and operators have nevertheless decided to not make Nokia Belle available due to technical reasons. In detail that means, if the information in the availability page states “Nokia Belle not available” the update unfortunately won’t be released for this variant.
    So basically Australia (myself included) your screwed.
    As for 4G - many a tech site has said for cell phones it's practically useless, not too mention the current crop of phones on offer in Aus isn't that great and the service areas are dismal.
    Really makes you wonder what to get, maybe an old clam shell or candy bar

  • I just won a Nano - what about the warranty

    Hi,
    I'm sure this is an old question but I need an answer!
    I just won a Nano and am going to give it to a friend. I think you can register without having proof of purchase but what happens if it goes wrong in the first year whilst under warranty.
    Will Apple not want to see proof of purchase which is quite difficult when you won it or were given it as a present.
    Does anyone know.
    Thanks
    Anthony

    When you register it, make sure the registration/warranty date is correct.
    Apple will only want to see proof of purchase if the date is incorrect.
