SD card doesn't work after XP SP3 install on Satellite P10

I have a Satellite P10, which has a built in SD card reader. I got Windows XP SP3 from Microsoft update a few days ago, and suddenly the card reader couldn't see any SD card larger than 128MB. It was listed in device manager with a exclamation mark by it - and didn't show up as a removable drive in My Computer. Error message was "Device cannot start - Error Code 10"
I uninstalled SP3 , and it works again. I've tracked it down to this hotfix which is included in SP3:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934428/
If I install this on it's own I get the same symptoms, and uninstalling it cures it again.
So for the time being I can't install SP3. Does anybody know if it's possible to remove a single hotfix from a service pack?
thanks
Doug.

With a little help from MS support I've fixed this issue. In this hopes that it helps someone else, this is what I did.
1. Uninstall SP3, and reboot into SP2.
2. Copy the following files from c:\windows\system32\drivers to somewhere safe: sdbus.sys, sffdisk.sys, sffp_sd.sys. I put them on my desktop. They should all be version 6.0.4061.1
3. Install SP3, and reboot.
4. Shutdown, and restart using F8 to go into Safe Mode.
5. Log in as Administrator (or another account with admin rights)
6. In C:\windows\system32\drivers rename each of sdbus.sys, sffdisk.sys and sffp_sd.sys.to have a .old extension.
7. Copy the files you saved in step 2 to c:\windows\systems32\drivers
8. Shutdown and restart normally.
And that's it. Hope that helps.
regards
Doug.

Ethernet card doesn't work with new arch install?

Hi guys,
so this is kinda my first post, not that I'm new to arch i just never had an issue i couldn't figure out on my own... But i love arch i have been using it for about a year now and have had no serious problems except for this. I have had arch running on an older dell vostro 200 desktop before i reinstalled with a vary similar issue except that the fix i came up with doesn't work anymore. I will tell you about the first issue first because i ALMOST posted on here about it originally but i figured out a way to make it work even though it was a hassle.
After cold/rebooting my computer the network card doesn't work at all. lspci reported that the kernel module e1000e was the correct one (i have verified this) and that the kernel has loaded it, i verified that with dmesg but still it wouldn't work. After much much anguish and hairpulling, I realized that it had to have something to do with the module so i tried forcing it to reload with rmmod e1000e and modprobe e1000e and it still wouldn't work until i physically unpluged the ethernet cord and pluged it back in until the light on the NIC turned on. After that everything works as normal i could even unplug and plug it back in with no problems. So eventually i wrote a script that did this for me (except for the uplugging and plugging part) and i used that when i cold/rebooted.
But now i have the exact same issue after reinstalling arch to the T except for the fact that the (crazy) fix i came up with doesn't work now. I used my "fix" after booting from the arch cd and it worked just like it always has. And now after rebooting into my fresh system the fix doesn't work anymore. So now i'm back where i was to begin with but i have no idea what to try next. I didn't do anything particularly different during installation except i added a udev rule for the e1000e module just to see if somehow that would fix the problem... it didnt and i have since deleted that (to see if it was the problem). The only other thing that is different is the root and home are now btrfs partitions instead of ext4.
I have booted several other live cds and dvds (diferent distros) including arch derivatives such as manjaro and they all worked just fine, using the same kernel module (e1000e). I'm not sure what that could mean but i know that it means there is a fix for this some way or another. I am going to hook up a wifi adapter and connect that computer to the internet to put some more information up if it's needed (asked for) but for now lspci -vnn | grep -i -A 10 net reports

Microphone doesn't work after Windows clean install

I have a satellite A135-S4677 (Part# PSAD0U-0N700P) which came with 32 bit vista.
I recently did a 32 bit windows 7 clean install on a new hard drive. Everything works fine except the internal microphone which does not work. If I connect an external mic it works. Speakers work fine.
I have tried the Toshiba Software Installer but it didnt help
I have tried both drivers on toshiba's website for Realtek but it still doesnt work
driver_audio_realtek_TC40053600B.exe
driver_audio_realtek_TC40064600A.exe
Anything else I can try. Please help
Thank you.

Satellite A135-S4677
After a clean install, the order of loading first the Toshiba supplied hardware drivers and hardware utilities, then the Toshiba utilities and software is critical for success.
1st Hardware Drivers & Hardware Utilities
1) Chipset related
2) Display
3) Sound
4) All other hardware drivers & hardware utilities
2nd Toshiba Utilities & Toshiba Software
1) Toshiba Value Added Package (TVAP)
2) Toshiba Flash Card Utility (sometimes included in the TVAP)
3) All other Toshiba utilities and Toshiba software
Also, Toshiba laptops are very finicky about only using Toshiba supplied hardware drivers to work properly, and those drivers supplied by Windows Update and/or the chip makers. That's why I recommend disabling automatic Windows Updates. To do this, click 'Start - All Programs - Windows Update', on the menu at left click on 'Change settings', under 'Important updates' click on the drop down menu at right and choose 'Never check for updates (not recommended)', and click OK. Then only manually check for Windows Updates, check all available updates carefully, and never allow Windows Update to change any of your hardware drivers. Though you should still regularly check for updates.
So, after disabling automatic Windows Updates, try downloading and installing these drivers in this order, and see if it resolves your mic problem.
Intel Chipset SW Installation Utility for Windows 7 (32/64)
Intel Display Driver for Windows 7 (32)(v8.15.10.1825)

Please let us know what happens. Good luck.

Macbook doesn't work after trying to install yosemite

Hello to everyone,
I have a macbook pro 13 8gb RAM and i7.
I had a problem before installing yosemite, when I switched it off it was always spinning the circle without really shutting down.
So I decided to create a USB driver with diskmaker x with on it Yosemite.
To install it with a clean way so I pressed alt while I was switching it on and I went in disk utility I initialized the Hard disk (750GB) and then I setted as reboot disk the yosemite usb driver... while it was running it I saw some interferences on the logo white page (like thin lines blue and red green..) so I switched it off I tried again and it said to me after a while impossible installing yosemite file system verify or repair failed.
So I tried to initialized the main hard disk again repair it and downloading yosemite via wifi...
An error occured and I saw the folder with " ? "...
Now I tried to start it but it doesn't work, I select the hard drive, I don't see disk utility anymore and once I select the hard disk it start a page and it stucks on the page with apple logo and the bar under it which is incredible slow to advance...
What can I do?
Many thanks

2nd graphics card doesn't work after upgrade to 10.6

I ordered my Mac Pro with two ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT graphic cards and they always worked great. After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, it always shows a display connected to the second card even when there isn't. This wasn't an issue until I started having windows displayed on that "ghost" screen that I couldn't see. In the System Profiler, It no longer recognizes the graphics card like it should and reports the wrong amount of memory (1024 instead of 256MB... I wish) and of course reports a "Display" that doesn't exist. Since from time to time I like to connect my TV to my Mac - for movies or whatever else - I connect it to this second graphics card but since 10.6, it hasn't worked.
In short: my second graphics card isn't recognized correctly; it has a ghost display with or without a display connected to it; will not connect to a display.

I'd assume you do have a bad card now. Maybe wait and see if newer ATI cards come out, or opt for 4870 or flash one of the 1GB models that can be flashed, and save couple $100.

Graphics card doesn't work after cleaning

So yesterday my computer was dusty so i decided to clean it, I used compressed air can. So when i was done i put everything back and started up the computer and i got no signal to the monitor, all fans were running even on the gfx but the monitor was black. So i switched place on the gfx and still nothing, i've change the cpu cooler to the stock Intel one, still nothing, i have checked the ram and still no sign. So what should i do?? Can i get a new Gtx 760 of my warranty? Btw i think my videocard is the problem, what do you think?. Please help!

Be aware that using compressed air (especially if using canned air) can cause condensation causing a short if the card is installed shortly afterwards. In this case warranty would be void. Try without the GTX760 and see if computer works fine (in case cpu has integrated gpu or you have another vga). If so make sure card is dry and retry. If no help try the card in another system.

Icloud doesn't work after a clean install of windows 8 pro and office 2010

After installing the 'iCloud Control Panel for Windows v2.0' on my cleanly built laptop. I now getting the following error after activation the mail option under the iCloud Control Panel 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again'..
I have done this add also added a second email address and change the new email address to be the default email address.
I've also done the following as well....
Ideally the error message you have mentioned is related to iCloud. But you may try these steps as you have already tried re-installing the iCloud control panel and sign in back to sync with Outlook:
Check if there is any new updated version of iCloud released for Windows 8.
1. Sign out from iCloud control Panel.
2. Go to Outlook -> Click on File -> Options -> Add-ins.
3. Select Com Add-ins in Manage -> Click on GO.
4. Disable all the Add-ins -> Click OK to save the settings.
Now go to iCloud Control panel and sign into the iCloud account. Open Outlook and check if you are able to sync.
however the same original error still accures. can i also point out i have delete the all the os and applications and started again by rebuilding the os windows 8 pro but this time using ms office 2013 and the error 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again' happens again als did option 1-4 from above as well and the error still happens.
Any Idea's?

Windows 8 is not supported on Boot Camp, that may or may not be part of your issue but it makes troubleshooting difficult. Post in Microsofts forums as well, that error message is not limited to Boot Camp installations, regular Windows users also get it.

Software Update doesn't work after new SSD install

I just installed a new SSD into my five year old MacBookPro (CoreDuo). I am taking the opportunity to reinstall from the ground up, getting rid of a lot of the cruft I've gathered over the years. I installed 10.6 fresh from the DVD and then ran software update. I could update iTunes, Airport, etc, but couldn't run the 10.6.6 combo updater. I was told that the file was corrupted during download and wouldn't expand.
I downloaded the standalone combo updater from the website and that worked fine. However, when I went to install the drivers for my printers via the System Preferences function, I get the same error. Is there a setting or something that I missed?

In 10.6.8 Apple won't allow Mac's to connect to WEP Encrypted networks, and won't reconnect to "hidden" networks automatically.

HT1710 password doesn't work after archive and install

I was advised to do an Archive & Install, without preserving info to see if it would fix a weird slowness issue.
I just did the Archive & Install, and when it restarted, it showed my name and photo, but it wouldn't accept my password. I can't login. All I can do is restart or shut down.
I rebooted from the install CD. Same thing.
I rebooted in safe mode. Same thing.

Are you using Filevault?
Are you using Firmware password protection in Mac OS X ...

P20-552: 2GB SD card doesn't work.

I have a P20-552 (PSP26E-025E9-S4) which is about 18 months old. I recently bought a Canon digital camera (IxUS 750) with a 2GB Sandisk Ultra II SD card and the combination is working well. Although I can transfer images from the camera to my Toshiba portable using an USB cable, sometimes I would like to use the SD slot on the portable but there seems to be a problem: seconds after pressing home the SD card in the slot I get the message "Disk is not formatted - Do you want to format it now?". I reply OK but then I get the message "The disk in drive E cannot be formatted"
The card continues to work perfectly well in both my camera and in my iPaq PocketPC. The SD card slot in the Toshiba will work quite happily with the Sandisk 256MB SD card that is usually in my PDA.
Anybody has any idea why the 2GB card doesn't work in the Toshiba? Is it a question of updating a driver - I did look the other day but I couldn't find anything that to me seemed appropriate but I might well have overlooked something..
I am running XP Home (SP2) and have fully automatic updates ON. I have Norton Virus and Zone Alarm running and am not experiencing any problems with any other software/applications - at least, no problem since someone suggested vacuuming my overheating laptop a few weeks ago ;-)
Thanks, Brian.

It seems that the unit doesnt support this card.
Check your user manual. There you will find a information that this unit supports only the following SD card sizes: 8/16/32/64/128/256 and 512 MB
According to this document the 2 GB are to high.

IMac - Display doesn´t work after restart

My iMac 21 Display doesn´t work after restart. If I turn it off and 1 hour later I want use it again the iMac shows the white screen with the mac logo and then the display goes off. I connected an external display to check if the iMac was ON and with the external display I can login and do everything but the iMac Display doesn´t work .
If I turn it off and wait 3 or 4 hours and then turn it back on the display works OK.
This is very strange behavior I have spent hours and hours trying to fine the solution or a similar issue but nothing so I am looking help here at apple.com
BTW When I bougth the iMac 21 there were some spots over the display so the display was replaced by the provider. The warranty has expired by now.

To tell you the truth, I don't know if they have to repalce the LCD panel or what they do for a bad backlight. In this reality of block or assembly replacement it probably involves repalcing the panel and not the backlight component. Don't know what it would cost. You'd have to ask that of a service center.

[Solved] Network doesn't work after hibernate?

Hello! This is my first legit Linux install so excuse me if I'm a bit slow. I installed Arch last night and everything went smoothly. However, after I tested out hibernate on my machine, the network doesn't seem to work. Just prior to the hibernate, I installed Pidgin and Skype but they worked alright, so I think that the hibernate caused a problem on eth0.
I have an Asus P8Z68-V Pro motherboard with an Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet Controller that's using the e1000e driver. Running "dmesg | grep e1000e" says that it is up.
I'm not entirely clear here, but from reading, I think that I have several ways of connecting to the network, including network, dhcpcd, networkmanager, and wicd. I am using wicd so I did the following (or at least I think I am only using wicd):
#rc.d stop network
#rc.d stop dhcpcd
#rc.d stop networkmanager
Similarly, I put a ! in front of network in rc.conf:

DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng dbus !network netfs crond wicd)
Restarting eth0 through wicd-cli still did not work. I also tried resuscitating the network via instructions on the configure network page before trying to focus solely on wicd.
I found a few similar problems on the forums by searching "wicd hibernate" and tried several solutions but they did not work. Several problems seem to be that the network doesn't work after a suspend because I guess the stuff in RAM did not get saved? But people were able to restart the network by running "/usr/lib/wicd/autoconnect.py" and I wasn't able to get this to work. As a final effort, I added "resume" into mkinitcpio.conf and placed the machine into sleep again to see if it may magically reset something but of course this did not happen .
mkinitcpio.conf:
# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array. For instance:
# MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES=""
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image. This is run first, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries used in a given hook.
# (Existing files are NOT overwritten if already added)
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
# Some users may wish to include modprobe.conf for custom module options
# like so:
# FILES="/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf"
FILES=""
# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
## No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
# HOOKS="base"
## This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
## work as a sane default
# HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems"
## This is identical to the above, except the old ide subsystem is
## used for IDE devices instead of the new pata subsystem.
# HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata filesystems"
## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
## No autodetection is done.
# HOOKS="base udev pata scsi sata usb filesystems"
## This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.

Not sure if my fstab.conf is useful but if this has something to do with settings getting "lost" in swap, here it is. Linux is on an SSD and HDD (sda and sdc) and Windows 7 is on a HDD (sdb).
fstab.conf:

Is wicd causing these problems or did I configure something else improperly? Would appreciate any help to get eth0 up again!

Ok, I think I've made some progress! Hibernate definitely affects my network connection. Could this be a kernel 3.0 problem?
I noticed that ifconfig showed eth0 without an inet addr, just an inet6 addr for the longest time. e1000e seemed to be loading up ok. I'm not certain here, but I think that meant the dhcp settings didn't stick, or something along those lines.
Trying to use dhcpcd like the instructions here did not work. By some chance, one attempt did work and while it did, I downloaded and installed dhclient. After that one successful attempt, renewing the DHCP lease via dhcpcd did not work again.
Luckily though, I found that running "dhclient eth0" worked. My DHCP settings seemed to have somehow gotten messed up after my initial, problematic hibernate to the point where none would stick, even after a reboot. Manually typing in "dhclient eth0" would get eth0 working, so I decided to add it to the bottom of /etc/rc.local, like in the example on the networking page.
Now, eth0 works after a boot. However, after the daemons load up during the boot process, my computer takes a long time to get to the login prompt (this is relatively speaking, since I am on a SSD and the boot process used to be blazing fast before). I'm pretty sure it's because I added "dhclient eth0" to /etc/rc.local.
I should say that even with these changes, after a hibernate, my eth0 still does not work and if it weren't for the edit to /etc/rc.local, eth0's inet settings would still not stick after a reboot (that is to say, the hibernate does do something to my network settings).
Is this the correct/most efficient way to fix my DHCP problem? Can I fix my "eth0 after hibernate" issue? Also, can I make my DHCP settings boot up without changes to /etc/rc.local so that I can get a fast boot again (still not sure how it was able to work before without my edit)?

Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML

My Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML
Mail client connects with the Mail Server wich seems to run but then they can't receive any email...
the problem seems to be related with dovecot ... in my smtp log i get this:
relay=dovecot, delay=324, delays=324/0.02/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: pipe: fatal: pipe_command: execvp /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver: Permission denied
I have to say that in the usr/libexec there wasn't the dovecot directory so I just tried to create one but with no luck
Any Ideas?
Cheers
Carlo
