Reinstall of Win XP Pro on T42 help = Device and Driver Issue

Hi All, need help. Recently I re-installed Win XPro on a T42 Type 2373 ThinkPad. Prior to doing a re-installed all devices were working(just 3 days ago). Wireless and Ethernet. After a clean installed the systems does not see ethernet or wireless device. I checked Device Manager and I get the famous "? Other Devices" for Ethernet Controller. I have installed all the driver listed on
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-55386
Still systems does not recognize device. Devices are ENABLED in the BIOS. Device Manager does not show Wireless device and Ethernet. I was able to install video, sound, & modem. So here I am stuck unable to connect to internet via LAN or Wireless. I am lost for words. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Solved: after downloading the driver I actually had to go to the location of the file and click on the SetUp and it worked.
After downloading and opening the exe file i assumed (and we know what that does) that was all i needed to do. It seems that also have to then open the folder that this file unpacked to and click on the setup file (which i didn't realise was there).

Elite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update

DElite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update <font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="4">Elite Pro CMSS-3D control (on I/O console)no longer controls CMSS-3D.
The only time it works is if the original drivers are installed from the installation CD.
ANY other drivers stop the control on the Elite Pro I/O console from having any effect on CMSS-3D.
Also at one time when I cotrolled volume, CMSS-3D(original drivers), EAX and Crystalizer from the Elite Pro I/O controls then I had on screen display of said control that was being moved(on I/O console).
Now regardless of what drivers are installed, there?are no longer any on screen indicators.
The indicators looked like the ones that show when using the remote controller.
Anyone have any ideas?

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus N911g Devices and Printers Page Is Slow to Open

Hello, I have HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, model N911g, installed as a wireless printer. I have Windows 7 64-bit. My Devices and Printers page takes over two minutes to open. While I am waiting, if I go to Print Spooler Services and click Restart, the page opens right away. Once the page is open, in the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus device, I ran Troubleshooter and it took about 1/2 hour to finish, and it reported and supposedly fixed a problem in the Print Spooler service. The assigned Port looks like a recovered port. However, if I restart the PC and try to open Devices and Printers again, the delay is still present. I had trouble installing the HP program including the Scan to PC functionality, because response time was so slow. Now it's installed and working, but the HP program is quite slow to open. The spinning circle spins and then stops, almost like it has given up opening the program. Then several minutes later the program opens or the requested action begins.

Check the document I linked below. Step 6 might be the solution you are looking for but it will not hurt to start from the top.

Need Quick Help: LR and PS issue

In my work flow, I do all of my adjustments in LR but I do send certain photos into PS to get fine tuned and then the file is usually re-imported back into LR so that I can organize my files and upload them to various sites and services.
The issue that I am having now, is that when I choose to save the photo as a full sized JPEG it no longer automatically imports in back into LR even if I manually do it. It only re-imports the photos automatically if I save it as a Tiff.
Someone recommended on another forum that I might need to change the file names which worked, but no longer linked the photo to the original cr2 file.
Could anyone help me resolve this issue?
Thanks

Ever consider converting to DNG format? Not only is it a great alternative

you're concerned about hard drive space. Adobe presents some very helpful
info about the DNG format here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/?promoid=DTEHA
You might want to read the thread. The OP is rendering the file to PS. Irrespective of whether the RAW file is converted to DNG or not this requires the creation of a TIFF or PSD.
Converting a TIFF to DNG would be pointless ,DNG is a TIFF itself, and create larger files as TIFF's zip compression, which is lossless, is not only the same as used by DNG but can also support layers which DNG cannot.
Personally the only time I open a file from LR into PS is when I have a issue that requires the use of layers as anything else editing wise can be done in LR. I always save with the layers intact so I can reopen if I need. This does create pretty large files, from even smallish originals, let alone 21 MP cameras. However I have loads of hard drive space. If you are short of hard drive space then just enable TIFF's zip compression, this will be at the expense of longer save and open times, but otherwise have no effect on the files itself other than reducing its size considerable.

Prob: No sound - Laptop: DV1000 - OS: Win XP Pro SP2 - Please help!!!

Hi,
I have just re-imaged my laptop DV1000 without the driver CD. Everything seems to be fine but the audio. I downloaded two driver files from HP UK support but none of them worked. Could somebody please give me some hints?
Thanks a lot,
Bob

Hi Bob,
I'm having the same problem - although I'm on Windows 7 now.
There seems to be a registry fix for XP, check this link out: http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/bizsupport/questionanswer.do?admit=109447626+1242041832337+28353475&threadId=1274952
I haven't tried it out yet as my registry is named CSD Version (maybe a typo?), and the value is hex = 0...
Good luck!

Macbook Pro will not shut down AND other issues...

Macbook Pro will not shut down. Not using the POWER button, not using control/alt/command/esc, not using force quit, and obviously not by selecting Sleep or Shut down from the Apple menu.
Force quit will not even pop up when selected.
Top row keys do not work either, have gone into settings and switched them to F keys and back again, no luck.
iPhoto will not import photos and will not shut down, gives me a message stating it is importing photos (nothing is connected to computer though). Baffling.
HELP! Computer is only a month old
Thank you everyone xx

HT1923 i had to reinstall iTunes to my laptop due to a virus and hardware issue with the harddrive. since reinstalling it i can no longer find any of my purchased songs or movies. how do i recover all of the content in my account?

can anyone help me through this? i have had this happen a few times but my iTunes list usually comes back just fine and i have all of the content restored.

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

Please Help - External Hard Drive Issue

1) Most of my music is on an external hard drive.
2) I do not always keep my external hard drive connected to my computer.
3) Recently, out of the blue, itunes started saying it couldn't find the files in library.
4) I deleted the library and re-loaded it so that all the filepaths were correct.
5) I disconnected my hard drive and opened my itunes library. It obviously couldn't find the files because the hard drive wasn't attached.
6) I re-attached the hard drive.
7) I opened itunes. It is no longer finding the files. Somehow the old filepaths were all erased. I have more than 7,500 songs, so finding the file for each one doesn't work as a solution.
I need to find a solution for this. I want my library on my C drive because I still have some music on that drive and don't want to have to attach my hard drive every time I add music (something I then do later). I tried sorting through all the other information out there, but there is too much and it's too varied. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much.
Aidan
P.S. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the itunes 8.0.2, which seems not to have some of the buttons shown on previous versions (i.e. "import"). Thoughts?

Thanks so much for the help. It's seriously annoying to have to do this, but if that's what it takes.... One question: Is there not any way just to keep the file paths the same? i.e. If, when I add the folder to the library, the file path points to the location on my external hard drive, why won't it just stay pointed there so that an error message shows when the hard drive's not attached but then doesn't show when it is? I mean, it seems that itunes is re-naming/re-addressing the file path whenever the hard drive's not attached - a very aggravating feature.
Thanks again.

IPhoto Help - photo and message issue

I am fairly new to using Apple products, so if this question or issue has already been covered please forgive me. Just point me to the link. I started iPhoto recently and its pretty fun, but I've been having a problem. When I attach a photo to a message and send it, the first email comes out the way it is supposed to. However, if I crop a completely different pic and again attach the photo to a message, the emailed pic and message reverts back to the card before (pic and words). Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong or what to do to alleviate this problem? Thanks in advance.

It seems that the library system is more complicated than it needs to be.
I don't think so. When you bear in mind what iPhoto actually does it makes a lot of sense. Each folder has a specific role:
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
why there can't be a set of files (pictures), and a directory (info on sorting or categorizing the pictures)
The folders above each have their specific role to play. The "info on sorting or categorizing the pictures" is tracked in the database files. The good news here is that a single pic can be in 1, 10 or 100 albums with no extra copies of the files floating around.
Bluntly, you could simplify the library, but then iPhoto wouldn't work. If you want a simple folder of images, then don't use iPhoto. Pop your pics in a folder and use an Image Viewer. There are many available for the Mac.
Shouldn't there be a dialog box asking me how I want to burn the pictures?
Or, just a wild thought this, have you checked the Help?

Help, permissions and privileges issue.

Hi to all,
Suddenly a few days ago, quitting Photoshop I received the following warning: "+Preferences can not be saved because you do not have necessary privileges+". Quite strange ... I'm using PSD since long time.
So, going to see the privileges settings for PSD's preference file, I've found the set in this order:
(Group) Everyone -> custom
(User) me ............ -> +Writing and reading+
(Group) Everyone -> +only reading+
So simply deleting this "bad" preference file, I had not problems anymore. And then I got the new PSD's pref file with just me as user and the group everyone. Ok.
Then I ran a "repair privileges" without finding out any problems a part with a couple of JavaWM files.
Unfortunately then I found that many applications gave similar permissions' troubles. In other words, I can't update my preferences' files. And if I check these files I always find a double groups "everyone": the first one with "custom", the other one only "Reading" (and me as user with w-r).
Opening an app that gave preferences error warning, I tried to assign for the group everyone-custom the Read and write permissions and reopening that app everything was fine. But it's not a right solution, I know.
So at this point I don't know how to solve my problem. Surely I cannot delete all my preferences' files !
I have a recent "good" backup. I could restore the entire Preference folder. But maybe is there a better way ? Or is there any other check to prevent a similar very annoying issue ?
Thanks and cheers,

Great.
Searching and reading in this forum, I found another post about same issue.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa;jsessionid=1D85FFDB1B589AFF1D9EFE2943E5 353C.node0?messageID=11502097&#11502097
The only problem was about the sudo command in Terminal.
Using "sudo chmod -RN /Users/short_name" as suggested, I got invalid argument.
But using "sudo chmod -N *" then "cd Library" and "sudo chmod -N *" and then "cd Preferences" ... then again "sudo chmod -N *" I've cleared ACL.
Finally, booting up from Leopard DVD, choosing "Reset Password" from the Utilities menu and there "Repair home folder permissions" did the job.
Now all preferences' files have only one group as "everyone" (and me as user of course).
Cheers,

Running Dual boot windows 8 and win 7 pro with xp mode installed!! I love it!!

It took over 2 days to figure out how to adjust the bios to get my win 7 pro DVD to boot and install dual boot on this GREAT MACHINE!!
Step 1: using diskmgmt.msc you have to shring the C partition. I shrunk it so I had 80GB remaining as unallocated space.
Step 2: You have to enter the machine Bios adn set the BIOS to Both and UEFI as first
Step 3: Connect your usb dvd
Step 4: Put your win 7 pro dvd in the usb dvd drive
Step 5: Reboot your machine and when it starts press F12 to get the boot menu and select the usb dvd drive then press enter
The machine restarts
Message on screen says press a key to boot from cd/dvd
Press space and it boots up the win 7 pro DVD
After files copy and load the setup screen asks to accept the agreement and where to install win 7
BE SURE TO SELECT THE 80GB location
Then follow thru the win 7 prompts to load it.
When the machine restarts you will see a dual boot screen with Windows 7 on top as first selection and Windows 8 below it as 2nd selection.
Make sure to hit enter with windows 7 selected
The win 7 installation completes.
You will see many items with drivers not installed dont fret.
You can load most of the drivers by highlighting the device in control panel/device manager and pick update driver then select BROWSE for DRIVER and be sure to put in drive D:\ which is now the windows 8 drive and hit search.
Many of the windows 8 drivers installed with no issue.
The Realtek driver was an exception .. goto to the lenovo site and pick the x100e tablet and download the LAN driver from there about (4MB). Copy it to flash drive and install it in win 7 from the .exe file. The driver for LAN will install sucessfully. The version of the driver is 7.46 something the 7.11 versions do not workl.
I have only 3 drivers that I could not find - 2 list as unknown and are related to ACPI or power management and 1 lists as USB controller but all the USB stuff works without it.
Be sure to either shutdown the system or sign out of win 8 when your done so you get the dual boot menu. If you shutdown while logged into win 8 the next time you start up it will go right to win 8 until you signout and restart.
Just to let you know an easy way to shutdown is go to the desktop and press ALT + FN + F4 and a shutdown menu comes up on the desktop.
Once win 7 pro is installed you can download the XP mode free from Microsoft and install it.
This is of course AFTER you have ACTIVATED WINDOWS 7 ONLINE with YOUR ACTIVATION KEY(you supply).
ENJOY! This is the BEST machine I ever had!

It's been many, many years since I don't do dual boot anymore. Don't find the reason to do it, either. Different kinds of virtualization should be enough. Anyway...

No audio in firefox, works fine in IE & Chrome. Have Dell E6500 running Win 7 Pro 64 bit. every thing works with native windows driver but with not IDT driver

I have no Audio in Firefox. I think this is an old problem with Dell IDT driver and Firefox. Flash is installed, I have uninstalled and re-installed two or three times, removed pluggins and put them back to no avail. The native win 7 driver from 2010 works okay in all browsers including firefox but I would like an up-to-date driver that works. The latest IDT driver for my Dell e6500 running Win 7 pro works great in IE and Chrome but not Firefox.

I don't think there was any setting I could change on the driver. Firefox did not show up in the mixer or volume control. It is there with the native win 7 driver. This driver doesn't seem to see Firefox. I just got this computer, but looking for help, posts three years ago on the web seemed to have this problem with the Dell e6500 and Firefox.
