MBP Drivers and stuff...

ok. i need some info about which drivers are on the MBP. i cant seem to find it anywhere...
what version of opengl do i have?
what version of a graphics driver do i have and where can i find updates?
Is there a way to find this out on my computer? i went to system profiler and found some things but not everything i wanted to know. (Im a mac noob)
ive got 2.16ghz processor, 120gb hd, 2gb ram.
MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

Ditto on what the posters above are saying - you don't normally need to worry at all about this stuff on a Mac. If and when there's a need for an update, it'll come down through Software Update. I've never had to do my own manual update of any of the core graphics stuff in MacOS - one of the advantages of a "closed" hardware environment.
But if you really want to know, the video driver version is found in System Profiler under Hardware->Graphics/Displays. Mine shows a driver version of 01.00.068. ATI doesn't seem to have any driver updates posted for the X1600 for MacOS.
The OpenGL version can be found under Software->Frameworks->OpenGL. Mine reports 1.4.9.8. I've never seen a separate OpenGL update download from Apple - just checked the support site, and the last one I see is from 2004 (v 1.2.1).

  • K8n neo4-f best drivers/config and stuff to avoid-

    What are the best drivers currently for a K8N neo4-f board
    and what should one avoid?  Did some reading, need SOME COMMENTS PLEASE-
    Is this what currently should be used with NEO4-F and WINXPsp2:
    -NVIDIAnForce4SystemDrivers-CK804_MN30004_XP-2006-3-23.zip :
     -YES to nVidia SMBUS
     -YES to nVidia Ethernet (However, I thought this board used domething else?!?)
     -NO  to nVidia IDE  (causes major problems for some.  Use MS Drivers instead)
    -Realtek_ALCXXX_I0003-2006-2-21.zip
    That is it to install?  Anything else?
    Also how turn these off-
    -DO NOT USE Nvidia firewall
    -DO NOT USE Active ARMOUR (causes large download coruption?!)
    Also, BIOS V1.B 112805 is best right now?
    Any other comments on this board?

    Ok, I understand that the MSI K8N Neo4-F uses a:
    Onboard Gigabit Marvell 88E1111 PHY (NOT nVIDIA)
    So, what drivers should be used for this ethernet hardware?
    Where does one find the latest drivers for this?
    Also anyone suggest the best drivers and config for this
    motherboard.  My understanding is NOT to just get the
    latest as the nVIDIA IDE is problematic as well as the
    firewall from nVIDIA, etc!

  • What is the ideal resolution combo for MBP 13" and Projector?

    In our school district we are using 13" MacBook Pro's (OS X 10.7 Lion) and external epson projectors, projecting to a Promethean Smart Board. The default resolution for a MBP is 1280X800, that is a no brainer. Now everything I've been reading says that projectors like to be on 1024X768. When we do that the projector resolution dictates that resolution to the MBP screen and the MBP screen is of course distorted. They don't play nice when trying to set independent settings. We've found that 1280X800 for MBP and 1280X960 for the projector works best. When set at these settings and you plug and unplug the VGA adapter the settings on the MBP hold to 1280X800. But we have to keep calibrating the Promethean Smart Board though inbetween plugging and unplugging the VGA adapter's. Any ideas?

    Try setting up the projector at 1024x768 as it calls for, but you want to use the best image. This might require a resolution reset as you are dealing with 3 different viewing sources. (ahh, if only they would come up with a standard.
    You can try a pram reset with everything up and running, this can sometimes correct distortions.
    NVPRAM reset:
    Power down the mac, power it back up, before the start up chime, press and hold the following keys:
    option,command,P,R,(no commas) and continue to hold these keys till you hear the start chime 2 times. See what you have. You might have to reboot.
    Also you can try connecting the projector, fire up the mac then the projector, it might auto-detect. You can try system preferences click detect displays,
    As for the smart board, you would have to contact the manufacturer for details.
    I know I have not offered much here, but it's worth a try, can't hurt anything.
    Also, if you plan to contact the Community in the future, please ammend your profile with the model and OS you are using, as it could help you get more info.
    Does your IT person have  stuff locked out? Most school districts have many of the useful tools locked out.
    The reason I know this is my wife is a school teacher, and we end up doing most of her multi media stuff on one of our personal computers, because of the lock down imposed on the entire staff.
    I hope there is something that might help you here. If not get your IT person to make it happen.(If they can)
    Good luck

  • Should I upgrade to a MBP? and what about these crashes?

    Right, so I bought a macbook about a week ago, and I'm just not sure if I should upgrade to a MB Pro or not?
    I'm not a huge gamer, the only game I can think of playing on XP is Flight Simulator X, which does need a good video card, but I haven't played any games for 6 months or so, so I don't think that justifies getting a MBP.
    Other than that, how is XP performance on the Core 2 Duo macbook? Does the integrated graphics cause problems? I suppose it is just like any XP laptop you can buy nowadays, as most of them also come with integrated graphics.
    The only thing that does make me feel like getting a MBP, however, is that this thing is a bit too happy to ramp up the fans sometimes. I'm thinking this is because of the integrated graphics? Am I wrong about this? I noticed that the fan came on easily in the following scenarios:
    1. Playing Macbreak Weekly H.264 video podcast fullscreen within iTunes 7. If not fullscreen, the fan doesn't come on. BTW, I noticed VLC plays this a lot smoother than iTunes. I don't know if VLC makes the fans come on though.
    2. Running iEatBrainz (a rosetta version). the fan came on while it was scanning my music collection, maybe this isn't related to integrated graphics?
    3. Playing an HD trailer, the fans come on. If this is due to integrated graphics then isn't this a future problem when there will be more HD around to play? the fan coming on all the time will be very annoying. I'm not really going to be playing heavy HD anytime soon though, but in the future it might be an issue.
    Two other separate problems I hope you guys can help me with:
    Problem 1:
    It has crashed 3 times in the past week.
    Crash 1: I think this was due to VirtueDesktops and trying to use an external display at the same time. Basically the WindowServer crashed and I lost the Apple menu and right-side clock and stuff. The dock was there and I could click on icons but nothing would launch. I had to force a shutdown by holding down the power button.
    Crash 2: Once again I think this is due to the external display. I was connected to the external display when I put the computer to sleep and it hung, the display was still on the external monitor but I couldn't click on any menus or dock so I had to force shutdown.
    Crash 3: Just 2 days ago I disconnected from the external display and was using it on the couch when I closed the lid because I had something to do and as i walked away I heard the startup apple sound! It had restarted just because I closed the lid! That was really odd.
    Before I close this problem off, though I must add that I initially used this laptop w/o an external display and keyboard+mouse for 3 days straight without any problems. I also did a hardware test (extended) and everything is fine. So I think 10.4.8 and external display + USB might be broken?
    Just in case, I have reinstalled the whole OS a day ago and so far with multiple sleep cycles and doing normal work (not connected to external stuff) it is just fine so I don't think there is a hardware issue.
    Problem 2:
    The other problem with the Macbook is that the button on the trackpad is just slightly sort of off-balance? I can make it move forward/backward vertically if I trace my finger vertically across it, is this normal? Sometimes if I click on the left hand side, it sort of gets stuck but immediately comes back up, so it's not a huge problem but annoying nonetheless. Does this warrant me getting a replacement unit? Could the button just stop working in the future, and then they have to replace the whole top casing don't they? Note that this happens only sometimes, and is hard to reproduce if I try to do it manually, it just happens *once in a while* but the button does work properly and everything and the right side of the trackpad is just fine.
    Other than this the laptop is fine, and I simply don't have the budget to pay for a MBP right now but I've been waiting to get a mac for so long now that I just don't want to return this and wait a few more months ...
    White 2.0 Ghz Macbook Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    you are right, the macbook has endured multiple sleep/wake cycles now, and i finally plugged in a USB mouse yesterday and it still seems fine. The touchpad button is still a little loose however.
    As for the extended test, I did that and there are no problems, so what do I do now?
    I have decided against upgrading for now, and I don't want to go to the hassle of taking it all the way down to the apple store, but even more stories today of macbook cases slightly warped after time and cracks appearing also scare me, how common is this? Or is it just careless users who might have dropped the macbook?
    If this case bending or warping or cracking and ramping up fans is common, I might as well save all my money and return it. I don't want to argue with Apple later on about fixing things, I've read horror stories there as well ...
    and yes, I'm in a forum where people only post problems but there seems to be too many, or am I wrong?

  • T61 Win 7 64bit drivers and Think Vantage software

    Hi,
    I have a question, when Lenovo will give all drivers dedicated to t61 ( 14", nvs140m). I've downloaded a sys update 4, deleted all vista or 7RC drivers and I'm waiting for client security solution, nvidia graphics drivers or whatever was available for xp or vista... when is it possible to get it all? or may be it will not be avalible?

    Hi Stuart
    The situation is pretty simply and clear, so I'm really wondering you were not able to find drivers, tools and utilities for your notebook model.
    For European notebooks you can download all stuff on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    This is European support page for drivers download. I found your model there and your notebook model is fully supported for Win7 64bit so you can find all drivers, tools and utilities there.
    Please check it out and if there is some problem with installation let us know

  • Daniel help... or anyone... vista drivers and softwa

    hello i am so confused now... too many drivers here and too many softwares and files to download and don't know what are the new ones and what are the suitable ones
    i have audigy 4 pro and i am using vista....
    what are the right driver and files i should download to work properly with my audigy?
    i already downloaded the files :
    1-SB Audigy Vista Driver 2.5.0004 (based on X-Fi release)
    2-Unofficial SB Audigy Series Software CD (Rev 2)
    3- Sound Blaster Audigy series Vista Support Pack
    long ago but i don't know where are the updates... or where are the new drivers and what to do
    may any one please help me?

    As the instructions on the page state, you must uninstall previous Creative drivers and software. That doesn't include the Vista Windows Update drivers. If that's all you have installed then it's okay. But if you installed any official Creative downloaded drivers or software or previous daniel_k stuff, then yeah, you must uninstall all that first. If the uninstallers don't remove all of it then DriverSweeper from guru3D.com is a good way to clean house.
    Disable UAC and reboot.
    Install that Vista Support Pack and reboot
    Install Unofficial Creative Alchemy .00.8 and reboot
    Install the Revision 2 Cd by unchecking the Alchemy and in the Audigy 2 ZS installation choose custom and uncheck the drivers and software installed by the Support Pack and put checks in everything else (though you can leave Smart Recorder unchecked as it doesn't seem to install for me. Save you clicking okay to error messages). Reboot.
    Reenable UAC and reboot.
    That gives you the latest versions of all the stuff.

  • Downloading drivers and such for B85M-E45 online

    Hello. When replying, please bear in mind that I have no idea of what I am doing whatsoever.
    I am currently setting up my new pc with a B85M-E45 type motherboard. My pc does not have a optical drive since I did not think it would be necessary, and I can see that the stuff I need can be downloaded online, so that is just great. Problem is, I have no idea of which files to download and where to find those. I got two DVDs with the pc, one called Drivers & Utilities, another one called Afterburner I think. 
    My pc runs a 64 bit Windows 8.1.
    Would someone be so kind as to show me exactly what to download from MSI's website?

    Hello,
    You can find all the drivers and utilities >>HERE<<. Just pick your OS and download.
    From the "Drivers" section you surely need:
    Intel VGA Driver (Only IF you don't have dedicated graphics card like AMD or NVidia)
    Intel Chipset Driver
    Intel Management Engine Driver+Microsoft hotfix
    Realtek PCI-E Ethernet Drivers
    Realtek High Definition Audio Driver
    And from "Utility" section:
    Command Center (worth to have it to monitor and control fan speeds, CPU temps etc)
    Network Genie
    Fast Boot (if you plan to use FastBoot feature from BIOS)
    Anything else you can install but might find useless. Nothing from Utility section is required, but you may find those I have listed to be useful.

  • Latest drivers and audigy applicati

    hi
    i'd like to know ...if i install the lastest driver for the audigy on vista 32 bits, will the applications from danielK's drivers still work with the new driver
    i mean that i d like to use the applications which danielk provided for vista and the latest driver.
    did anyone test this

    I have been running the Daniel K's drivers on Vista Ultimate 32 bit. I did the download of the new drivers and let them run without first uninstalling Daniel K's stuff. The drivers installed with no issues. The EAX settings, EQ, Speaker Settings, and Soundfont Bank Manager applets all still show an install date of when I did the Daniel K driver and all still are working.

  • I was trying to update my ipod touch and an error occured. Now it says I'm suppose to connect it to itunes and restore it to it's original settings. That's going to make me lose all my pictures and stuff right?

    Okay, while I was updating my ipod an unknown error occured. Now It's telling me I need to connect it to itunes, even though it's plugged in already. And when It does connect it shows up as a generic "ipod".  It doesn't even show my ipod anymore. And it wants me to restore it. It said something around the lines of "restore ipod so it can connect to itunes." Isn't that going to delete all my pictures and stuff? I don't think it saved the reboot from when it was updating!I just want all my settings and stuff back! I don't want to lose all my stuff especially my 2,000 pictures on there! Ugh! Help!

    Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

  • Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

    After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
    Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
    Problem:
    - New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions. 
    - When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi. 
    - The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install). 
    Solution:
    1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
    Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
    Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software  for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
    The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
    1 Printer Driver
    (Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
    2 Scanner Driver
    (Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
    3 Network Tool
    (Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
    Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
    4 Solution Menu
    (Canon Solution Menu Ver. 1.4.1 (27-Jul-2012 ))
    5 MP Navigator EX
    (Canon MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 (02-Auf-2012))
    6 Easy-PhotoPrint EX
    (Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX Ver. 4.1.6 (21-Jan-2013 ))
    Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
    http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
    Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
    1. Choose a product category
    Multifunctional Printers
    2. Choose a product series
      Pixma
    3. Choose a product model
      Pixma MX868
    4. Choose type of document
    Downloads or FAQ
    If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
    2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
    Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB.  Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’).  This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
    3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
    After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
    Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
    DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list).  The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
    You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
    If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List.  It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
    If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

  • My solution for No Audio -- Conexant drivers and Windows 7 x64

    My son and I have the L2000 laptop that came with 32 bit XP and used the Conexant chipset for Audio. I had been using an SB Audigy PCMCIA card so I am not sure when Audio was really lost; however, he noticed it when I upgraded his PC. I scoured various forums looking for 64 bit  Windows 7 drivers for Conexant audio but to no avail. Microsoft and Conexant both said that HP should supply the drivers. By the way HP, the Conexant website says that they do not supply drivers even though they make the chipsets "at the request of the OEM's." Another post said that HP was not going to supply these drivers for Windows 7. The solution from HP for my model and Windows 7 was the "HP Software Advisor" which was 67MB and totaly useless. It appears that this is a very common problem. Anyway, here is what you do:
    First you need 2 files which ironically enough come from HP, they are SP35558.exe and SP35558.cva They contain the Conexant drivers for Vista x64. (I subsequently have found the 32 bit drivers and the procedure should be very similar except the files are SP34789.exe and SP34789.cva). Type the following into your browser address bar ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/ About half way down you will find the sub-directory with these files. Just right click each one and save to your desktop.
    Double click SP35558.cva and tell Windows to use Notepad to open it. Scroll about half way down to "[Operating Systems]" and after "WV64UL=OEM" insert:
    W764HB=OEM
    W764HP=OEM
    W764PR=OEM
    W764UL=OEM
    ( For 32 bit systems use W732HB=OEM, etc.)
    I next went up about 10 lines to "[System information]" and added
    SysId3=0x3091
    SysName3=HP Pavilion ze2000 series
    SysId4=0x3096
    SysName4=Compaq presario M2000 series
    SysId5=0x3097
    SysName5=Compaq Presario M2000 series
    SysId6=0x3097
    SysName6=HP Special Edition L2000 series
    SysId7=0x3093
    SysName7=Compaq Presario M2000 series
    SysId8=0x3093
    SysName8=HP Special Edition L2000 series
    I got this information from another cva file on my PC at C;/swsetup/ This is the directory where HP updates default to.
    After modding the cva file, I saved it to C;/swsetup/sp35558/
    I then executed the SP35558.exe file. It did not work the first time -- I missed a line in my cva file. However, I then manually installed the Conexant drivers as follows and voila I had sound, nice crisp clear sound.
    Under Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under "Other" and choose "Update Driver" Then" Browse your PC" and "Choose from a list". Select "Sound, audio and game controllers", then Conexant, then "Have Disk" . Browse to C:/swsetup/sp35558/ and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (64bit remember). Now choose "OK" and ignore any warnings about incompatibility, WHQL, etc. Give it plenty of time, you might think you are in a loop, but you are not. Congratulations, you are done.
    This question was solved.

    SysName3=HP Pavilion ze2000 series
    SysId4=0x3096
    SysName4=Compaq presario M2000 series
    SysId5=0x3097
    SysName5=Compaq Presario M2000 series
    SysId6=0x3097
    SysName6=HP Special Edition L2000 series
    SysId7=0x3093
    SysName7=Compaq Presario M2000 series
    SysId8=0x3093
    SysName8=HP Special Edition L2000 series
    I got this information from another cva file on my PC at C:/swsetup/   (This is thedefault  directory for HP updates.)
    After modding the cva file, I saved it to C;/swsetup/sp35558/
    I then executed the SP35558.exe file and voila I had sound, nice crisp clear sound.
    The use of the cva file is to streamline the driver install and it is kind of cool if it works. If you cannot find it or you are not successful the first time or you do not want to bother with modding anything, do not worry, the manual install will work for sure.
    Run sp35558.exe to extract everything and let it strike out. Then go to Device Manager and update the driver manually as follows:
    Under Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under "Other" and choose "Update Driver" Then "Browse your PC" and "Choose from a list". Select "Sound, audio and game controllers", then "Conexant", then "Have Disk". Browse to C:/swsetup/sp35558/ and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (64bit remember). Now choose "OK" and ignore any warnings about incompatibility, WHQL, etc. Give it plenty of time, you might think you are in a loop, but you are not. Congratulations, you are done.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I update drivers and BIOS on Satellite P300?

    I've been having problems with my wifi, and as my partners laptop is working fine, it was suggested that I might need to update drivers and/or BIOS.
    I've tried to do this but where do you download the BIOS/driver updates to?
    It just defaults into 'my documents', sits there and does nothing?
    After downloading, How do I ensure my notepad 'takes' the updates?
    As you can see, I'm not overly technical so any advice in simpletons terms please...
    Thanks.

    Hello
    All drivers and tools for your notebook can be downloaded here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    At first I would try a WLAN driver update. If you have downloaded the WLAN driver, unzip all files and start the setup.exe file. This will automatically install the new driver and will be used now.
