Problems with Win 7 drivers

I am running a Win 7 Pro (32-bit) partition with Bootcamp 2.2 and am unable to find any sound drivers, which is strange because this is actually a reinstall of the Win 7 OS. In my previous install I was able to get sound drivers despite the Bootcamp setup failing to run from the Leopard install disk when in the freshly made windows partition.
I have tried to install the drivers which come on the orig leopard install disk (both realtech and Sigmatel drivers in both XP and Vista compatibility mode)but both have "failed to install." I have also tried to find drivers directly from RealTech's website but have not had any success.
I think that the sound drivers magically appeared after about a month the first time I installed Win 7, a few weeks after its official release, because I had sound back then.
So, my question is... how do I get sound back?!
Has someone come up with a magical konami code that activates it or do I just have to upgrade to Snow leopard for Boot camp 3.x?

I messed up and was running the "compatibility troubleshooter" option, I had not truly changed the compatibility to run in Win Vista (service pack 2.) SO, to answer for anyone one how has this problem. Copy the Setup file from the Leopard CD, right click, properties, compatibility tab, change it, apply, then double click the file and setup will run. After it ran I restarted (still no sound) and then ran the Realtek driver after changing the compatibility in the same way, restarted, and head the beautiful shut down sound!
Nothing makes you feel stupider than answering your own question after asking the World wide web for help...

Downgrade to win7 problem with audio drivers. beats audio software for win7?

I recently purchased the HP Envy 700-074 from best buy. it was necessary to downgrade to windows 7 for some work software and I would like proper audio drivers/software for windows 7. Right now it seems to be detecting as Nvidia audio driver but in this case it doesnt allow my front panel audio ports to output audio. I would also like to have beats working.
here are the hardware ID's associated with the card
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10DE&DEV_001C&SUBSYS_38423619&REV_1001
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10DE&DEV_001C&SUBSYS_38423619
and here's a quick screenshot of the driver that is associating with it right now..
http://gyazo.com/23499c19d5e2a21f81b9124ad822c07d.png
even those VEN_10DE's seem to associate to nvidia, but from HP the driver is meant to be IDT high definition audio? is something going on here?
the only change i've made to the computer is upgraded to an EVGA Nvidia GT 610 video card.,

Hi, Paul.
I have similar problem here.
I bought HP Envy 810-200nr and I hate W8, so I installed Windows Server 2008 R2, which is my favourite.
Then I solved numerous problems with chipset drivers and finally it all works, but Audio (IDT HD Audio) does not work.
Completely silent.
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76C7&SUBSYS_103C2AF3&REV_1001
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76C7&SUBSYS_103C2AF3
It looks okay, when playing audio - indicator blinks and shows level, volume can be adjusted, all parametrers - speakers, etc seems okay but silent!
I tried numerous drivers for W8 and W7 64 but they give "Incompatible version" error.
Can you advise me what to do? I really want WS2008R2 here, but this audio is weird..

Problems with graphics drivers

Hello, I tried to install new drivers to my Ati 6770m (2gb) and there is a problem with almost every driver. For example the newest ati catalyst 14.5 beta. When the driver is installed, I can't switch to the resolution higher than 1024x768. Ati catalyst control centre is not installed or I there is an error message saying, that the driver is not installed correctly so the control centre can't open. Sometimes the system crashes to the blue screen and I have to reboot. I see this problem with various drivers. The only driver, that is working for me is Ati Catalyst 13.10 mobility beta. And with this driver there's a lot of graphic problems with GTA V. I see squares on all objects in distance when dx11 and AA is turned on. It is unplayable with this driver. Please help.

Hey @Tommy2220 ,
Thanks for the additional information. If you uninstall all that you have in the graphic drivers section of the Device manager, including the drivers that are present. Restart the Notebook, and download from here. You will only need AMD/Intel Switchable High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver, it includes everything you will need.
You can also find them , here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system.
Hope this helps you out.
Thanks.

Problems with ATI drivers and gnome3?

I've tried to install gnome3 off of the gnome-unstable repo (sudo pacman -S gnome-unstable/gnome gnome-unstable/gdm I'm assuming that's the proper command). However, when GDM starts, my screen just flashes a cursor, goes blank, turns off, and repeats. Is there a problem with ATI drivers or is the package just not working at all right now?

I'm also having troubles with Catalyst and gnome3 (I'm ussually in i3 btw) just playing with it tho. Seems to detect my graphics as 'VESA: JUNIPER" which probably means it's using some sort of fallback, eitherway it's not very functional and messes with my X server a bit
EDIT: I can get into gnome, but there's a lot of flickering doing anything, should proabaly check for bugs on their tracker
EDIT2: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 89#p913189 <--- looks like that might be gaining some traction, something to watch
EDIT3: This bug and This Bug might be relevent, not too recent tho
And another one
so yeah..... ATI

Problems with Win XP drivers on a Satellite A200-1FL (PSAE06E)

Hi,
I have problems with a WinXP 32bit installation (downgrade of vista 32bit):
with the sound, with two pci devices and with the mass storage driver.
Xp install some sound drivers: codec, imported or generic controller... I dont know,... but it doesnt work.
Please help!!! I dont know so much in all those matters...

> Xp installs some sound drivers: codec, imported or generic controller... I dont know... but it doesnt work.
Did you check the installation instruction txt file? I dont think that you have checked it because there you will find guide lines how to install the drivers and what installation order is important!!!
I dont understand people who write anything about drivers and the installation processes and dont check the existing documents and help files.
Do firstly install everything like mentioned then if the problems stills exists you can come back and ask for the help ;)

Problem with Wine, NVidia and fullscreen games

Hi,
I'm writing about a problem i recently noticed with wine, nvidia gpu and fullscreen 2d games.Basically the problem is as follows - i am running arch with the latest kernel and nvidia drivers on Thinkpad T61 with NVidia Quadro NVS 140M. I have a problem with old 2d games like Red Alert 2, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Diablo 2, Heroes 3. All of these games do not support the native 1440x900 resolution of my screen and all of them work fine in window mode but crash if fullscreen is selected. I managed to get some of them working by making them work at higher resolutions. For example although Red Alert 2 does not support 1440x900, it can be easily made to work at that resolution and after i applied the necessary settings it worked. The same was with Heroes 3 - by default it does not support 1440x900 and it used to work only i window mode but there is a HD mod which allows it to run in higher resolutions and after i applied it it worked perfectly in fullscreen. I haven't thested Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale but i think it will work there too.
The problem is that i cannot use this approach to all games - for example i must run Diablo 2 and Starcraft in their original resolutions. I read somewhere that the problem is that wine can only change between the resolutions described in the xorg.conf file and if doesn't find the necessary resolution the game will crash or will only take the portion of the screen that is its resolution - for example when i play Starcraft rather than stretching it to the whole screen it simply takes 640x480 pixels of my screen and the game is displayed in the top left corner of the screen leaving everything else black.
I didn't have this problem before - it is something new though i'm not sure since when do i have the problem because i rarely play games. As for the idea that the problem may be related to the resolutions defined in the Xorg.conf file, my xorg.conf is automatically generated by the nvidia installer and there are no resolutions defined there.

Try nvidia 304.48
I remember that issue, with the 302 series.
I have Nvidia 304.48 installed and the problem still exists (it also happens with Catalyst). This didn't occur with 295.59 using the same version of Wine.

Problem with Win 7 x64, WWAN or WiFi card and Windows XP Mode

I have a T500 with switchable graphics (2056-4RU) with a clean install of Windows 7 Pro x64 with the AT&T WWAN card.
With all the Win7 RTM drivers and Access Connections for Win7, I had a problem that the WWAN card (Ericson F3507g, purchased from Lenovo and working flawlessly under Vista 32-bit) would not initialize. Support told me to uninstall the Win 7 versions of the Power Manager Drivers, WWAN card driver and Access Connections and replace them with the Vista counterparts, which restored the functionality of my WWAN card. Based on the speed with which the support tech came up with the suggested fix, I suspect I am not the only one with the disappearing WWAN card problem.
Now I have found that starting the Windows XP Mode virtual machine kills the WiFi functionality (Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN) until I disable and re-enable the WiFi adapter in Device Manager and then restart the system. (I have not problems with XP Mode and with the Win7 drivers / Access Connections opening Windows XP Mode did not cause the problem with the WiFi.) Opening Windows XP Mode causes no problem with the wired network adapter on my system).
Thus it appears that I can have functionality of the WWAN and WiFi adapters with XP Mode using the Released Win 7 versions and functionality of Windows XP Mode together OR I can have WWAN but not WiFi functionality with XP Mode using the Vista drivers that support suggested. However, it seems that I cannot have WWAN, WiFi and XP Mode concurrently.
I reproduced the above XP mode / WWAN problem / WiFi problems on a T500 with Win7 x64 owned by another family member.
Does anyone (particularly anyone from Lenovo) have fix for this?
Thanks.

for the sim card, try this:
http://jack.ukleja.com/update-ericsson-f3507g-mobile-broadband-on-windows-7-with-lenovo-thinkpad/com...
I have another operator and I finally gave up. apparently it's also no that easy to install the SIM card, if the plastic thing that helps to remove the SIM card is not the right position, it will overlap the SIM Card chip.
can't help for the WIFI. I had the problems too with access connection and decided to remove it. I use Seven's network manager, which does an equally good job.
Since I have the switch to turn off the wireless, I don't really need access connection anyway.
Finally, something that I learns while struggling with the bluetooth driver: the order in which power manager, access connection and the different drivers are installed DOES affect their effectiveness. I forgot the details but I remember 2 things:
always read the TXT file that is available on the driver page on the lenovo web site and install power manager and access connection last.
Good luck

[Vox] MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 problem with audio drivers compatibility

Ok,let's go...
I have a DELL Latitude d510 laptop with a centrino 1.73 GHz procesor and a soundcard supported by Sigmatel software Sigmatel C-Major audio.I bought MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 and tried to install it on my lap top.Yes,I had problems with SP2 on my XP and the MSIVPS software from the instalation CD was crashing every time I tried to start it,but I solved those problems by downloading the latest drivers and the 3.xx version of MSIPVS.But...I still have a problem with audio.To be precise it seems that my audio drivers are incompatible with the VOX drivers.So now I have video but I don't have audio.Also I installed the tv card on my desktop machine and it worked like a charm(everything workes:audio,video,the old MSIPVS which I like better than the new one cause it supports my remote,has better way of managing scanned channels,e.t.c ,but I have USB 1.1 on my MB so the image quality is very poor).I did a lot of experimenting,for example i uninstaled my audio drivers(that Sigmatel C-Major thing),and installed the old MSIVPS and guess what...IT WORKED but there is no use from this cause I don't have audio On the other hand if I have everything installed then in the MSIVPS (the 3.xx version not the old one) under audio I get CD Player as an input audio device(what happened with microphone...?).To cut the long story short I tried a bunch of things and still no audio.Is there any other case of DELL audio software-VOX incompatibility?Any ideas,or solutions?

thank you for answering me. y have no pci card working, only usb 2.0 and sata devices. also, the MSI geforce 9600gt PExp 2.0 gpu. the only usb 2.0 devices which work, are the flash (pen) drives, keyboard and mouse. but no way that the WLAn adapter and TVcapture, both usb 2.0 work.i've tested them front side and rear side and is the same failure: if i use a pendrive, works ok. if i insert the wlan or the tv capture stop work as the 2.0 and a advertising window tell me to change to a 2.0 port, means the ports are working slower, at 1.1. i still have the other PC, built on the MSI K9N4-slif mobo, tested them and both devices work at perfection. i have 2 screenshots to show you:
this, is the device manager (sorry, in spanish but you understand that's about the nVIDIA EHCI USB 2.0 controller. the 2nd one seems to be more sensitive (works worth) then the first one. when the tvcapture begin work, then fails, i'm trying to update this controller, does it ok but then the devicemanager-window freeze. i must stroke the "enter" key to "accept" / finish the update. then, fails again:
the other one is from everest corporate edition:
both drivers marked with purple colour!
i think i should update this Win XP drivers, but how? the usbport.inf file (C:\Windows\inf) don't change anything. i don't want to switch xp to vista, i'm happy whit it.
i'm thinking also on another possibility: could be an energy failure? some usb devices, like the big usb flash dives. 250-320gb, fail because the 5v/usb are receiving it's not enough. could be, but that means this mobo has no solution and i'll loose my money.
thank you very much and i'll stay alert of your suggestions. by

my graphics card is Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller, and maybe should install a module for it works with wine.
The window where you start all options configuration appears to me, but when I go to Play THPS4! showed me the error. The version of my wine is wine-1.1.8. I don't know if I have to install any shape or form over any other option in winecfg.
thanks

Can you try it on a desktop comp using arch and wine instead? Maybe it's a graphics problem? Anyway, I've checked the min req. and it's quite low..
Please check this site if your game is supported or if ever you want to play another game in the future.

I have a problem when using Google Maps, at some point my computer blanks the window and says there's a problem with display drivers, and it has recovered,but it doesn't. Problem doesn't happen with Int Explorrer, so I do not believe it is the computer

When using google maps through Firefox, after asking for a place which is not the general North America section which routinely comes up, the firefox screen goes white, with a narrow banner at the top. A message appears in the lower right corner which says something about display drivers having had a problem, but now have recovered. However the display doesn't recover and the banner message is that Firefox is not responding. When I go to restart Firefox if I go to the restore point, the page is still frozen out.
I do not believe it is a problem with my computer because it doesn't happen if I use I.E. to go to google maps, then G-maps works normally.
This phenomenon did not happen before the latest upgrade to either Google or Firefox. I have used Fiefox for a number of years and also Google Maps on previous computers and on this one, and not had this before.
This is a relatively young computer (Asus EeSlate 121) less than a year old. I have used Firefox since I bought it and until recently had no problem with Google Maps.

I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
Now all is working.
Thanks,
B.

Problems with Vista Drivers on Satellite M100 (PSMA1E)

Hello,
I got Problems with installing the Vista Driver for the Graphic Card and the Realtek Sound Card.
I downloaded the Drivers from the Toshiba-Support Side! The Realtek Driver couldnt be installed because of some missing file! The CCC wouldnt run correct after installation! I got Vista Buisness!
Greets, kalest

I fixed the Sound Problem for myself:
The Realtek Site offers drivers for the HD-Soundchip. I installed them and now i got HD Support on Vista!
The Problem with the Cata.Control Center still exists!

Qosmio X300-130: Problems with some drivers in windows 7 64 bit.

I have installed normally in my laptop windows 7 64 bit version. Before I continue with my main problems I am in the forum for answers and I found this [post |http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=232906&#232906] . How can I see if have a 32 or a 64 bit BIOS? If I have a 32 how can I make it a 64?
And now my problems:
1. I have installed a 64 bit sound drive for windows 7 of Realtek the version 6.0.1.6392 and it only recognizes the 2 speakers above the keyboard. How can I fix this?
2. My media controller manager is not responding with the drivers for windows 7 64 bit. Should I have the bluetooth on? I tried with media player and VLC and it wasn't responding. How can I fix this?

>How can I see if have a 32 or a 64 bit BIOS? If I have a 32 how can I make it a 64?
Start the notebook and press F2. Then you should be able to access the BIOS.
There you should see the version number. Furthermore you can download the latest BIOS from the Toshiba European driver page.
>1. I have installed a 64 bit sound drive for windows 7 of Realtek the version 6.0.1.6392 and it only recognizes the 2 speakers above the keyboard. How can I fix this?
The notebook supports the speakers: main x2 + tweeter x2 + woofer harman/kardon
All speakers are controlled by sound chip. So you need to install just the Realtek sound driver.
Further settings can be found in control panel Realtek HD audio manger.

Adobe Elements 9, sharing photo mail problem with Win. 7, Live Mail.

Last Oct. 2011 I bought a new HP laptop with Win. 7 I and PS Elements 9 and Permiere 9. I am familar to XP and PS Elements 6. I play with photos alot and shortly found that I could not send/share photos using Photo Mail and Win. Live Mail. I contacted Adobe and was told that it was HP's problem. I contacted HP, They worked very hard on trying to find the solution. I was in contact with 3-4 techs. accessing my lap top for 4-6 hours trying many things. Finally I was told that I needed Outlook to use Photo Mail and that if I bought Micro. Office it would have Outlook. I think it was around $200.00. I already had Office Home and Student and told the tech. that I had already paid $$$ for the laptop and programs and the unit should work. The tech. tried to down load a pervious ver. of Outlook, but it didn't work. I was told that sometimes when purchasing a custom pc thing do not work properly. The last Tech.told me it was Adobe's problem. I didn't know what to do-----I finally called Adobe back. I explained the problem---this Tech. said "no problem" and had it fixed in no time at all! It had something to do with a number as I recall. Access # ? I don't recall.
Last week I got some type of a virus and had to restore back to factory settings. Now I am in the same problem and cannot fix the problem. I called both Abobe and HP. They both told me to purchase help one at $50.00 the $39.00 and it would be fixed. The other option is to purchase Elements 10 around $100.00. and the problem will be fixed.
AM I FRUSTERATED----YES!
Mel

I would not normally recommend going back to earlier software but if you are re-building it may be worth installing the original version of MS Live Mail. But PSE does not work with Live Essentials 2011.

Do you have any idea ?

Well I had a problem where wine would crash and bring my xserver with it!
The problem was that dri was not enabled, so you might want to try enabling it.
