SL300 Thinkvantage Toolbox failure after Win7 upgrade

Despite getting the latest version of this utility - 6.0.5449.31 (using Lenovos Update program installed on PC), the program reports that it has stopped running (after "checking status") and closes down.
Have I missed something here? Surely a diagnostic program should be able to check things without crashing itself.............???
Anybody got this running on Windows 7?

Catch 22 after Win7 upgrade from Vista (no way to install Boot Camp)

I've seen other posts about this but no answers, so I'll keep this
I had Vista Home Premium running in a Boot Camp partition on my black MB 2.0GHz with Snow Leopard, although I only used Fusion and not Boot Camp for Windows. (The Boot Camp partition dated back to the program's beta, which I ran on Tiger. I skipped Leopard.) I replaced the hard drive with a larger model -- thank you CCC and WinClone --, upgraded to Win7 Home Premium and thought I'd try getting Boot Camp running.
The Snow Leopard install DVD has a Boot Camp 3.0 installer that refuses to run on Win 7. (The error message that I get is, "Boot Camp requires that your computer is running Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista.") And the Boot Camp 3.1 Updater is, well, an updater that wants to see Boot Camp 3.0. Doesn't seem to be any way forward!
I've seen it recommended to try a Boot Camp 2.1 installer (seems like a long shot, but has anyone tried it?) or to run the Boot Camp 3.0 installer in Vista compatibility mode (reported not to work).
It doesn't feel worth it to re-image the MacBook's Boot Camp partition to Vista using my WinClone backup, then install Boot Camp 3.0, then do the Win 7 upgrade again, and then run the Boot Camp 3.1 updater. Not when Fusion is so good. It took me several iterations of the restore-and-upgrade business with Boot Camp Assistant and WinClone to get to this point and I'm not eager to repeat it. It's not hard, just tedious. It does seem likely that that upgrade path would work, however. Practic makes perfect.
Thoughts?

And just one more thing... I'm remembering now that when I started up the Win7 install, I got a warning that Boot Camp wouldn't work after the upgrade. I don't know which version that would have been. I went ahead with the upgrade anyway. Knowing now how that worked out, I can see that I probably zigged where I should have zagged. But I remember thinking at the time that my options were to cancel the upgrade, uninstall Boot Camp and then try the upgrade again. It didn't occur to me to upgrade to the 3.1 version of Boot Camp because I thought that was the Win7 compatible version, and I was still on Vista at that point.
Maybe all this verbiage will help someone else avoid this situation!

Old recovery content after Win7 Upgrade

Hi all.
I got a L500 13T before Windows 7, so I had Vista home premium. After Win7 released I got Win7 Professional, with clean install.
As I was downloading the Toshiba software after the installation, I noticed Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator was not available.
Here comes my question, What should I do with the huge folder in D: named HDDRecovery? Also, a non-microsoft defrag software shows that I have a partition called WinRE, which seems like another probable waste of space. Seems like I wont have a recovery tool provided by Toshiba with win7 but I hope I can make some extra space on my hdd.

Satellite L500-13T (PSLJ3E-018019G3)
I noticed Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator was not available.
That's correct. Toshiba does not supply any way to recovery after you clean install another version of Windows.
You don't need any of the rest of that stuff. You can boot into Windows 7 Recovery Environment directly from the installation DVD.
Before you remove other partitions, check that the boot files Bootmgr and Boot\BCD are in the root. Also, run the Disk Management snap-in (diskmgmt.msc) and make sure that your partition is the one marked Active.

Cisco 3750 ping failures after stack upgrade

I just updated my 4 stack of 3750X switches from 12.x IOS to 15.0.2 IOS. Only 2 of them updated correctly the first time, I had to manually update to the other 2. After getting all of them upgrade I restarted the entire stack.
After that I cannot get PCs not on my default VLAN to talk to their DHCP servers or ping anywhere in the network. I get a "PING: transmit failed. General failure". I can however, ping into my default vlan from the switch and ping out to other locations from the switch.
I've tried the following:
Checking firewall status on several (WIN 7) pc's, it's off
Changing ports on switch (no change)
Restarting the PC (no change)
Release/renew ipconfig (no change)
flushdns (no change)
clear ARP table on switch
set un-set spanning-tree portfast (no change)
check interface status (up and up)
check vlan interface status (up and up)
changed vlans (no change)
checked VLAN help addresses (still there)
Any help at this point is appreciated as my network is entirely down right now.

I can set my laptop statically to a VLAN address, and I can ping out, get to the internet, ping between VLANs, etc. But if I just set a port (or leave it in the default VLAN) it will give me the “PING: transmit failed. General failure.” DHCP requests still aren’t getting fulfilled and even pings won’t go through if there’s not a statically set address. Nothing changed on my server configs and I even restarted my DHCP servers after encountered this problem. My guess is this is a new feature that’s turned on by default in the new IOS that needs to be disabled. Any help is appreciated.

Validity sensor/digital persona not working after win7 upgrade on dv3 2050ea

Hi,
I have recently clean installed windows 7 after Vista onto a dv3 2050ea laptop. I used the HP downloads page to get all the new drivers for win7 including the validity sensor and digital persona package. Win 7 does not find a biometric sensor and I can't see where to launch digital persona from . What can I do ?
thanks
Alan

I just fixed this problem with my HDX 18,,,,,,I will walk you through the process that fixed my FP reader.
I upgraded from VISTA to WIN7, that was where the problem occured.
My PC DL'd the the updated Digital Persona Identity Protection Suite (DPIPS) program for WIN7 from the HP site.
There is a known incompatibility with this update from HP and WIN7.
The Validity Sensor Driver that detects the FP reader is the same for VISTA and WIN7 in my PC (check this first / update IF necessary).
NEXT
I went through the: START>Control Panel>Programs and Features>Digital Persona>Uninstall.
Shut down and restart 2X.
I went back to the HP site and DL'd the DPIPS program for VISTA.
RUN > DPIPS program.
UPDATE from the DPIPS Program (Version 4.11.3826) bypassing the the update from HP.
Hope this works for you.

T61 key not working after win7 upgrade

Hi I upgraded my thinkpad T61´s windows from XP to 7(64bits) but one of my key from keyboard stopped to work.
I installed all the drivers and ThinkVantage System Update, but it didn´t work.
My keyboard layout is Portuguese-BR(ABNT) and the problem is with "/" key.
Are there any software to test the key board? Maybe any mapping problem?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, edbrmm
I would recommend navigating to Control Panel ► Device Manager and opening the tree for Keyboards. Right-click on the keyboard and select Scan for hardware changes. This should scan the keyboard and let you know if anything is wrong with the device, as far as the computer is aware. Try this scan and see if any results are found.
Best,
Adam

App failure after OS upgrade- support options? PSE-6 Prem-4

I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0 and it's companion video app, Adobe Premiere 4.0, and I run MS Vista HP.
I recently updated my operating system to Service Pack 2 (SP2). When the upgrade was installed, as usual there were many glitches that needed tweaking, but the worst was my Adobe apps. Both of the above named apps, came back with the same error "cannot start, reinstall program".
After the initial error message, future attempts to start either app were not answered. Nothing happened. Reviewing the status in Task Manager showed that the apps were both running, but neither was actually visible or operating, just eating memory while standing idle.
After reviewing the forums and knowledge bases and finding nothing on this problem, I contacted Adobe Support via Chat (the only method available) and after a long drawn out process of locating my registrations for these apps, I was told that I had to back to the original retailer where I bought them, several years before. The only other option was of course to BUY the latest versions from Adobe. Even if I had any recollection of where i bought it, I can only imagine how that conversation would go! The original disks were 'somewhere' but I just moved and lord only knows where they were put until all is unpacked! One would think if one had the serial numbers, that downloads or better yet, repair files, would be available to registered users, but NO!
My original software worked fine, so no reason to spend more money in this economy, I just needed to get them working to finish a project with a deadline rapidly approaching. As I was working with PSD files, no other application would help me finish my project, so I had to get something. Perusing the Adobe website I found the trial versions of Adobe PSE 8.0 and Premiere 6.0! Great, I thought, this should work to finish my project and hopefully I would find my original software before the expiration date of the trial software!
With ever faithful 'Murphy' standing by for the install, I got the message "Trial period expired. Please enter serial number". This happened with both apps, and the only thing I could figure s that I probably downloaded these before and there was some embedded snitch file that would not allow me to run it again. But... Murphy must have gone out for coffee, because in a moment of inspiration, I went back to my original apps and clicked on the icons... You guessed it, both apps were restored to full operation!
So this is why I am writing this to the forum. I found a fix that Adobe either does not know, or won't tell. Whatever files went missing or corrupted during my upgrade were re-installed into the Adobe 'common' folder, restoring my original apps. If these files could be identified by Adobe techs, they could be made available for download to repair these issues without the run-around, and without making customers spend more money, the mark of a reputable software manufacturer.
The only thing I do not know for sure, and until I find my original disks I do not intent to investigate, is whether or not the original apps will continue to function if I uninstall the trial versions to get my disk space back,s they do not work and only take up space. I will investigate the Adobe folders and see if I can identify which files were installed with the trials, and if they may be affected by an uninstall. Sometimes the uninstaller apps are intuitive enough to know that certain files are in use by another application,and will not be included in the uninstall. But I am not going to test this theory until find my original disks!
Please pass this info on to your friends who use MS Vista and PSE 6.0 & Prem 4.0

It's Ok.
Now I have:
$ cat /etc/issue
Oracle Linux Server release 6.4
No any problem.

When system up, battery monitor (and files in /proc/acpi) says that no battery is present (see italic messages, theoretically battery is present), but DPMS and suspend work.
Is there any solution apart from downgrading? It's a big problem for me, cause I'm often using my laptop on batteries.

Looks like some magic (i.e., simple full system restart) helped. After that ACPI looks normal. Some errors still are in dmesg, but seemingly not critical.

Presario CQ60 On-board microphone problem after Win7 upgrade

I upgraded my new Presario CQ60-409SA with the HP supplied Win7 DVD. Since then my on-board microphone has stopped receiving input. Plugging an in-line mic into the front jack works fine, but absolutely no response from the on-board one. I have checked that the mic is not muted. Dale in HP support centre suggested I uninstall the drivers and restart. This unfortunately did not work. Can anyone help? I am using the latest drivers from the HP site (SP-45166). Many thanks.

I'd REALLY love some help with this one. Is anyone from HP able to assist? Has anyone else had the same problem? The mic was fine in Vista, but the system just doesn't seem to pick up that it's there in Win7. External works fine. Any ideas????

Several tools/utilities don't work after Win7 upgrade

Hello,
I am working with a Tecra A9 PTS52E laptop which had WinXP running on it.
I recently upgraded to Win7, but not from a Toshiba install disk.
I found a number (not all) drivers for tecra a9/win7 online;
but some things still don't seem to be working correctly.
first of all, I installed the Value Added Package 20100419152838,
but OSD and the Toshiba power manager don't work. Instead win7 keeps telling me my battery is broken (?) Is there a way this can be fixed?
I also had trouble finding Toshiba Disk Creator, and I couldn't make Toshiba Security Assist work properly...
Thanks,

Toshiba Power Saver is not the same application as you know it from the past. It has now limited options and Toshiba power saver options you can find in advanced power settings for power plan you use.
It cannot be installed as single utility. It is part of Toshiba Value Added Package.
This with battery confuses me completely.
Is battery detected by OS?
Can battery be loaded properly?
Can you run notebook on battery power supply?
This with composite battery entry is normal and the same is listed in device manager at my notebook. How many entries do you have in device manager for Batteries?

Powerbook G4 17" motherborard failure after RAM upgrade???

Thank you in advance for any advice.
I have an original, first generation PB G4 17" that I've used for 5 years. Recently, I had to replace the AC supply because the former one was bent when the laptop fell out of a chair. When I took it in to an authorized dealer here in Taiwan, to test the power adapter, I decided to upgrade the RAM from 1GB to 2 GB. Before I brought it home, it seemed to work at the store, although I thought I did not appreciate any performance boost when I opened multiple apps. Anyway, after I got home, I tried to turn it on, but it would not turn on. Thinking the battery was depleted, I hooked it up to the new AC adapter (Apple brand), and lo and behold it would not boot. I would shut it down by pressing the on/off button or just disconnect the power source (adapter and battery). It started to beep three times after multiple attempts. I took it back to the store, and got my original RAM reinstalled, and the same three beeps occured. I just got a call from the service center and was told that the motherboard has failed. Does any of this make sense? I have never had any trouble like this prior to the RAM upgrade. I just replaced the HD about 6 months ago. I'm just sick to my stomach...Any suggestions? Any input would be much appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
We could discuss how you'd benefit from the additional memory, however, since the system isn't working, let's focus on the beeps.
When you start the system, it goes through some tests (called the power on self test or POST) before loading the operating system. If it finds any errors, it beeps, and the beeps are:
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
3 beeps means it doesn't find any memory that passes the POST test. The fact that this started up after the service center installed the memory upgrade is suspicious, however, if it worked in the store then stopped working later, it may just be unfortunate timing.
There are some company's on the internet that claim they can repair the logic boards, otherwise, Apple's solution is to replace them. In the US, some Apple stores offer a 'fix everything' service for $350, which is less than specifically replacing the logic board - perhaps there is a similar service in Taiwan.

Time Machine Restore failure after Lion upgrade

Hi all,
I recently (accidentally) reformatted my Mac's hardrive and then installed Lion. I can only recover the files from TM after the Lion install. I can 'see' other backups for a split moment in the time field, but can onlny restore from the last 2 backups that I can clearly see after the Lion install. I REALLY need to get my apps back! Can anyone out there heeeeeelp!!!?

Are you using the "Star Wars" display? If so, that's probably not what you want to do.
Your best bet is to do a full system restore, per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. That will put everything back just the way it was; your version of OSX, your apps, user accounts, preferences, data, etc.
