Reformatted R15 with XP, now drivers are missing and internet won't connect

Hello!
I obtained a Satellite R15 without recovery discs. I kept telling myself that I'd make a set but never got around to it. Recently, I began having problems with my MSOffice 2007 software. I tried to uninstall and reinstall but the files were corrupted and it didn't work. My next step was to purchase the Windows XP tablet edition operating software. I reformatted and installed the software. However, I had to reinstall it 3 times before I was able to get it actually reformat my hard drive. The new system is missing the help center for some reason and was also missing drivers. I went to the Toshiba download center and I downloaded every possible driver/program I could need for an XP operating system and installed them all. Some of them would not work because they wanted to connect to the internet. Some of them did not work because I'm missing an "rpc driver" . I also installed service pack 2 for XP but not service pack 3 because I don't have an internet connection. Initially, the modem, ethernet, sound, video and a few things did not have drivers. Now I have drivers for all of them except one - seems to be for shock absorption software and I can't find it anywhere. I need help.
1. I still cannot connect to the internet either through an ethernet or wireless
2. I'd like to have a help center again - I use it once a year or so, but it's nice to know it's there
3. I am still not able to install MS Office 2007
4. I'd like to get that software for the shock absorption.
Any advice would be much appreciated!

Is the HDD ok? I would run the Advanced test in Hitachi DFT to ensure is has no bad sectors.
Install the "Toshiba HDD Protection System" driver from the Toshiba website. Common Modules needs to be installed first, its very important.
Is the Office CD scratched? Does it work in other PC's?
Ultimately, you would want a Toshiba Recovery Disc, that way you can be sure the drivers are all installed properly. I believe you can get replacement discs from Toshiba.

I had a lot too like 5,000. So, i dont know what to do! And last night i was trying to turn my laptop off, and it kept saying you need to cloe iphoto cause its still in progress, but i had never touched or did anything really with it so i had to force quit iphoto. And then it finally turned out but im not sure what i did.
    thanks! All help will be greatly appreciated

    He's asking you if when you launch iPhoto with the option key held down you have the option of opening more than one library.  If not then you current library may be damaged and you can try to fix it by applying the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • My computer was recently wiped (was:whipped) w/o uninstalling any of my apps now they are missing and I am unable to re-install my apps

    PLEASE HELP!

    I don't know what "whipped" means (Is that meant to be "wiped") but if you need to have the old installations deactivated you need to contact Adobe Support by chat or phone.  Here is a link to a page with options to help make contact:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/download-install/supportinfo/
    You can probably download the applications though it depends which versions.  Here is a link to a page where you can find what's available.  If you need to find your serial numbers they should be available thru your Adobe account online if you registered them.

    If there is something preventing you from reinstalling the applications you will need to explain more about that.

  • Just days ago, I downloaded and created folders for two batches of photos and now they are missing. They were not deleted by anyone, and even if they were, they were not found in my trash can. What happened? They were erased from my camera, so I am upset.

    Just days ago, I downloaded and created folders for 2 batches of photos I downloaded from my camera to iphotos but now both are missing.  They were not deleted and even if they were, were not found in my trashcan. I have looked through every folder and they are not there. Is there a bug that can get into iPhoto to do this? Is there a program Apple offers to retrieve lost photos? Thank you.

    debbie5891 wrote: ... They were not deleted and even if they were, were not found in my trashcan...
    How do you know they were not deleted? Is it possible that they were moved to the trash and the trash has been emptied, if not by you, perhaps by someone else?
    In the best case, you mean they were not deleted from your camera.  If so, it will be simple to merely download again from your camera after you have corrected any problem with your Mac or workflow.
    If you have a way to be certain that your two folders were not deleted from your Mac,  follow the directions provided by your Mac's Disk Utility to repair your Disk (not Disk Permissions.)  On more than one occasion, disk repair has restored the visibility of missing folders I knew I had not deleted.  If you have trouble with the process, post back which specific Mac OS version ( > About This Mac) you are using so we can offer specific help.
    It is also possible that the missing folders might be saved somewhere you do not expect them to be.
    It is also possible that they may merely be invisible and, thus, not showing in your Finder windows even after performing a Disk Repair.
    Here are some more ideas you can consider:
    Restart Mac and then look where you expect the folders to be.  They may be visible there now.
    If not, try a Spotlight search for the folder name(s) you used.  Spotlight may give you a list of places to look.  If you don't remember the folder name(s), try a search for the file type your camera uses for saved images.  My cameras save "jpg" files, but yours may save other image file types. 
    You can also open a finder window and use the window's search oval to search.  The method allows you to use the search "+" button to add invisible items via the "File Visibility"  choice.
    debbie5891 wrote:... I have looked through every folder and they are not there....
    If you are using any version of Mac OS X, I doubt this statement can be true.
    If you select your disk volume name (not the Media item) in the sidebar of your Mac's Disk Utility, you will see that the number of Folders and files on your disk is very large.  For example,I keep my startup disk small and write most of my files to other disks.  Even so, my startup disk contains more than 195,000 folders.
    If you mean you used some software to search each folder, please post back the name of the app you are using.
    debbie5891 wrote: ... Is there a bug that can get into iPhoto to do this? ...
    I have not had the problem you describe, nor have I heard of such an iPhoto Bug.
    I have used every version of iPhoto I have seen including the current new version: iPhoto '11 version 9.5 (902.7).  You can find the version you are using by executing the iPhoto > About iPhoto menu command and post it back here.
    debbie5891 wrote:... Is there a program Apple offers to retrieve lost photos? ...
    I am not aware of any Apple apps that work specifically on photo files.  If you know the pathname to the lost files, and if you are comfortable with Unix commands, you might be able to use your Mac's Terminal utility to retrieve at least some of your images.  However, it will be MUCH simpler to merely download another copy from your camera.
    You can search the Mac App Store for "unerase" to find several apps that can unerase files, including deleted photo files, in certain circumstances even after the trash has been emptied.  To determine whether one or more of them may meet your needs, see their product info and reviews for specifics about each one.
    debbie5891 wrote:...Thank you.
    You're most welcome.
    If you need to post back for more information, please provide specifics on your Mac OS, iPhoto version, which of the suggestions offered here you have tried, and any details not already provided about the problem status.

    I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
    I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
    Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

  • How to find which drivers are missing?

    My laptop model no is Hp Pavillion dv6 1337tx. Someday ago I installed Windows 7 32 bit OS and also installed all drivers from the HP site. Still in the device manager I can see som drivers are missing. What can those be and how can I identify those missing drivers and solve this problem?
    I am attaching a screenshot of the device manager showing some drivers are missing.

    Your image has not yet been approved by a moderator.
    Determining what the devices are is a one at a time process. On each unknown device or device without drivers, right click on the device and select properties. In the properties window select the Details tab and  hardware ids in the property  dropdown. Post the PCI\VEN string as seen in the following image for each device here in your post.  Once that is done we can let you know what the device is.
    This is where the drivers for your notebook are located.  Do you know  which chipset is installed?

  • I have 2nd gen. Ipod shuffle I restored it and now when i am trying to sync it, it is showing that some files are missing and it is not getting sync what should i do???

    Master reset...? Your device was jailbroken prior to you purchasing the device. The only symbol you should see on reboot is an Apple symbol. Download redsnow... google it! Download the latest version and your IPSW (ipod restore firmware) it has to be the correct version. And the "just boot tethered" should fix your device.
    But that's only if you didnt back the device up. If you don't care about any of the data on the ipod then you can simply open itunes navigate to the device and click the restore button. This will restore the ipod firmware and install a fresh copy. Good luck let me know if you have any problems.

    The exclamation make is an indication that iPhoto has broken the file path to the original photo.

  • I downloaded the ios6 to my iphone and my moms phone  Now they are syncronized and I lost my contacts. All my phone numbers have emails in them but no phone numbers. Now whenever I get or send a text it shows up on her phone. How do I reverse it?

    I downloaded the ios6 update for the iphone to my phone and my moms"s phone. Now they are syncronized and I lost my contact telephone numbers. Now when I get a text or send  text it shows up on my mom's phone. I asked for help from the people at the ATT store and had no idea how to help me. That is crazy that they don't even know anything about their own products! This is EXTREMELY frustrating. Did you create a software that cannot be reversed or corrected? How to I restore my phone to the way it was? I am being told it can't be done. I have been an ATT customer for 8 years but I would love to go to Verizon right now. Pleae let me know how to reverse this and get the phones unsynced.

    If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
    When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
    Take a look at this.
