Portege R835-P56X : are there no Wifi and soundcard drivers for WIn XP ?

I have just got a Portege R835-P56X . Are there any Wifi and Soundcard drivers for Windows XP for this laptop ?  I want to downgrade to win XP as I have a huge collection of legacy software which have compatibility issues with WIndows 7. I can't find the required drivers on the Toshiba website, all though there are drivers for webcam or touchpad. I don't understand the reason for having a few drivers for XP but not all the required ones. Surely one can't use a laptop without Wifi or  audio.

Best to upgrade Home Premium to Professional and then install XP Mode. Works really well here.
   Upgrade to another edition of Windows 7 by using Windows Anytime Upgrade
   Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
It's not necessary to have hardware vitualization enabled. See KB977206.

  • Are there any issues and potential solutions for large scale partitioning?

    I am looking at a scenario that a careful and "optimised" design has been made for a system. However, It is still resulted in thousands of entities/tables due to the complex business requirements. The option of partitions must also be investigated due to large amount of data in each table. It could potentially result in thousands partitions on thousands tables, if not more.
    Also assume that powerful computers, such as SPARC M9000, can be employed under such a scenario.
    Keen to hear what your comments are. It will be helpful if you can back up your statements with evidence and keep in the context of this scenario.

    I did see your other thread, but kept away from it because it seemed to be getting a bit heated. Some points I did notice:
    People suggested that a design involving "thousands" of entities must be bad. This is neither true not nor unusual. An EBS database may have fifty to a hundred thousand entities, no problem. It is not good or bad, just necessary.
    The discussion of "how many partitions" got stuck on whether Oracle really can support thousand of partitions per table. Of course it can - though you may find case studies that if you go over twenty or thirty thousand for a table, performance may degrade (shared pool issues, if I remember correctly).
    There was discussion of how many partitions anyone needs, with people suggesting "not many". Well, if you range partition per hour with 16 hash sub-partitions (not unreasonable in, for example, a telephone system) you have 384 per day which build up quite quickly unless you merge them.
    You own situation has never been fully defined. A few hundred million rows in a few TB is not unusual at all. But when you say "I don't have a specific problem to solve" alarm bells ring: you are trying to solve a problem that does not exist? If you get partitioning right, the benefits can be huge; get it wrong, and it can be a disaster. Don't do it just because you can.  You need to identify a problem and prove, mathematically, that your chosen partitioning strategy will fix it.

  • When will there be scan and fax drivers for kyocera FS-C2126 MFS

    I am new to MAC OS X and was a bit astonished that the MFP printers manufactured by kyocera are not supported any more regarding scan and fax option. This was not really clear to me when I checked their driver homepage a few weeks ago. I managed to get at least printing work on my FS-C2126 with their drivers but kyocera support told me that scanning and fax is not supported under os x 10.7.x neither via USB nor via ethernet. From their side there's no plan to provide a new driver, they told me to ask apple about that issue. Thats a bit frustrating as the kyocera printers are commonly used in business environment and I cannot beleive that there should be no way to use them in combination with a mac...
    Does anyone know a solution for these issues? Maybe a (commercial?) third party software? I could not find any clues in the internet. I already checked SANE for scandrivers but there are none.
    What's your experience with apple regarding these things? Is it likely the'll provide drivers from their side?
    Any help is welcome.
    Regards
    Stefan

    I totally agree but for whatever reason they don't at the moment....
    I just read that apple is providing updated printer driver packages sometimes (they just released packages for samsung, canon, gestedner etc.) so it seems they do take care about these issues.

  • I am thinking of buying a iPad but my main desktop machine uses Windows 7 and MS Office.  How easy or difficult is it to transfer data files between the iPad and Windows?  Are there obvious problems or the need for some form of conversion programs?

    Many thanks for any advice.

    You don't need conversion programs, iTunes can copy most of your content over to the iPad via the file sharing section, and some apps also support Dropbox, email attachments, transfer via your wifi network. There are a number of apps that you can get that support Microsoft office file (microsoft don't make an app versions of their software) e.g. from Apple there are Pages (word support), Numbers (excel) and Keynote (powerpoint), and from third-parties there are apps such as Documents To Go and QuickOffice HD

  • Why don't some of the photos I took with my iPhone 4S appear on my iPad 3? Both are connected to WiFi and iCloud is activated on both devices.

    Why don't some of the photos I took with my iPhone 4S appear on my iPad 3? Both are connected to WiFi and iCloud is activated on both devices.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • When I start firefox, the previous tabs are there but blank and say new tab, can I restore the tabs?

    When I start firefox, the previous tabs are there but blank and say new tab, can I restore the tabs?
    how can I do this?

    I'm not sure what causes this.
    As the first step, I recommend backing up your existing sessionstore files.
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Scroll down to the files whose names start with sessionstore. You should find at least sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If the .js extension does not appear on sessionstore, you should turn off the Windows feature that hides file extensions from you, so that you can work with file names as accurately as possible. This Microsoft support article has the steps: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219].
    Make backup copies of all the sessionstore files to somewhere like your Documents folder for possible later restoration.
    Next, try one of the data mining techniques in these posts to rescue the URLs from the sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak file:

  • Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap). Any ideas?

    Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap and doesn't provide any kind of professional DVD authoring). Any ideas?

    This comes up a lot these days.
    Practically speaking, there are really four options for the Mac platform: Toast (<$100),  Adobe Premier Productiom ($1,600 to buy or $50/month to rent),  find a copy of Final Cut Studio from 3rd  party (+/- $1,000 new) or a boxed edition of iLife to get iDVD ($50 - $90 on Amazon new).
    The other question everyone has is how many OS versions before iDVD or FCS breaks? No one knows, but Apple has said they're no longer supporting these legacy apps. Of course, no one is mandated to upgrade to a new OS unless they buy a new computer. So if it works on a system, stay with it as long as it makes sense.
    Good luck.

  • What are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA

    Hi all
    what are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA.
    please explain clealry.
    Thanks & Regards,
    James

    James,
    Please go through Roberto's weblog :
    /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/02/14/logistic-cockpit--when-you-need-more--first-option-enhance-it
    Anyways,
    As you know LO cockpit consists of different modules(MM, PP, SD, etc)
    They are called appl components. Each of them have a number (eg.MM=02) and for each appl comp they might be different Data sources and for each DS they might be different tables. So, unless you be specific we cant tell a specific table for a DS.
    coming to the delta mechanisms, there are " direct delta, queqed delta and serialized delta".
    Copa is based on the oepration concern. it can be created on " accouting based" or "costing based".
    Assign points if helpful

  • Are there any available upgrades or updates for osx 10.6.8

    are there any available upgrades or updates for OS X 10.6.8       Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10)

    Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.
