T500 under 64-bit Vista: can't get switchable graphics to work
The BIOS is set to enable Selectable Graphics, and all four drivers show up in the Display Properties window, but there is no way to choose or enable Selectable Graphics that I can find. I left click on the battery icon, but there is no Selectable Graphics item to click on. I can't find it in Windows or Lenovo power mgmt tools. What am I missing?
Thanks

[to the OP - asking the obvious...] Did your IT guys install the lenovo power manager?

Anyone using Vista - Can you get right click to work?
Do any of you running Vista have right click working? Will the new OS X bootcamp help? Thank you.
Using a fresh install of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition I was able to use both left and right click with my Apple Mighty Mouse, Dell Generic 5 Button Mouse, and a Logitech G5 Laser Mouse I happened to have in my briefcase without anything tricky...
Have you double checked the mouse properties in Windows itself?

Hi,
Could you download the appropriate version of the installer from the following page?

Once downloaded, please quit all of your browsers and launch the installer. If it still fails, please restart your system and try again. Let me know how it goes.

In my iCal, "new reminder" does not appear in the menu under "File". How can I get reminders to show up on my iCal?
If you're running Mountain Lion (10.8.3), reminders is now a separate app. Launch reminders from your applications group and you will be able to access File>New Reminder.

How can I get elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?
In the expert mode of Photoshop Elements 11, I can only work with 8 bits photos. How can I get Elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?
No, you can still buy photoshop cs6 (perpetual license) if one doesn't want to subscribe to the cloud version (photoshop cc version 14)
Either way is expensive compared to photoshop elements.

Can't get Report Builder to work with Apache Webserver
I'm running ColdFusion 7.0.1 and have it configured to work
with Apache. I've got an application named realestate. I created
the following entry in my host file:
127.0.0.1 realestate
In Apache, I've created a virtual server that uses the
realestate server name. But I can't get the Report Builder to
connect to it at all. When I run the wizard, I try to install an
RDS server. I've used 127.0.0.1 for the host name as well as
realestate and I've set the port to 80. I can't get port 8500 to
work at all. I set my ColdFusion root location to fall under
Apache's htdocs. Should I have left it under C:\CFMX7 ? How would I
change the location?Please review the "stickied" threads near the top of this board, about syncing with Windows 7 and Vista. It's all there.

Help... I can not get my microphone to work
Help.... I can NOT get my microphone to work with my Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional card. When I plug it in and test it (in either Configure Speech Recoginition - Windows Vista / or in Counter-Strike Source, Test Microphone Button under the game options) both indicate that the system is not receiving any sound. However, both the speakers (5.1) and headphones work fine. I am using a Plantronics headset.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Below are my complete system specifications. Let me know what additional information you need, if any.

Can't get video chat to work outside of LAN...
Hello,
I can't get video chat to work.
All computers, LAN and WAN are running the latest iChat under 10.4 (including latest updates).
Within our LAN, via Bonjour, everything is fine.
I'm now trying to set up an offsite Intel iMac (10.4) and I can't connect via video chat with them.
I've had this problem in the past and eventually gave up (so much for "it just works" - I've spent the last 10+ years dealing with Macs and Mac-based networking, I can't imagine "my dad" figuring this all out). Trying again with fingers crossed...?
If someone could help, it'd be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Kristin.
The studio router/firewall is a SonicWall TZ 170 Standard.
This router has a static IP.
All suggested ports on the SonicWall are set up correctly to allow in/out from our LAN.
All computers on the LAN have static IP addresses.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on any computers.
Internet connection speed = 7404 kb/s
The offside router/firewall is a LinkSys WRT54G
This router does not have a static IP.
DMZ is ON and set to the only computer connected to it.
Computer has a static IP address.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on computer.
Internet connection speed = 5116 kb/s
If any more information is required to help you help me, just let me know!Does the TZ170 have UPnP or Port Triggering then ?
I can not see that it does here
Opening the ports in the manner listed on that link will only allow one computer (IP) to use the open ports.
The Linksys is router and you have not mentioned what the modem is doing at that end.
Why not use UPnP here ? The Linksys does it (on the Administration page)
Most likely this needs the Respond to Anonymous Pings checked on the Security page.

Vista can not detect my graphic card ATI HD2600 on Satellite A210-128
Hallo,
Can someone help me with this issue?
I have a Toshiba Satellite A210-128 laptop with vista separately on DVD, but it seems that the dvd is damaged and I can not use it any more.
I have installed on my laptop a brand new Vista from the original DVD that Im using it on my desktop, but the problem is that vista can not detect my graphic card hd2600.
So Im stuck...... I tried to install the ati driver from the Toshiba update site but I get a error because ccc can not detect a graphic card ?????/
What to do????
It is something special with the DVD that i have from Toshiba ?????
Thank you very much.Hi

The whole issue is really mysterious. In my opinion there are two options;
Either your have used and tried to install a wrong graphic driver or there is something wrong with your GPU chip.
Are you 100% that you tired an right graphic driver from the Toshiba European driver page?
If yes, then I recommend contacting the ASP in your country because this could be really an hardware issue.
Furthermore I found you second posting in other thread

Can't get Favicon Icon to Work
Hi,
So I can't seem to get my favicon icon to work right. I am using Dreamweaver CS4 and I have an icon called favicon.ico in my remote folder.
Under the head tag I have :
<link href="favicon.ico" rel="icon">
If I preview it in dreamweaver it works great and comes up. However, when I go to the site outside dreamweaver, it doesn't show up. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Ian M
Btw my site is www.Imicallef.comCan I jump on this thread?
I can only get the favicon to work on my home page, all other pages have identical code at the headers but don't show the favicon.
I use this code (highlighted in Bold):

Please help. How can i get my mic to work??
+ Hi all
I have a creative inspire 5. 5700 hooked up to my X-FI extreme music via Digital I/O port.
However im a bit pissed off because i cant get a microphone to work, it seems that the port i use my speakers for is the same port as the microphone..
Any ideas how to get my mic to work without unplugging the digital I/O?
Cheers/Re: Please help. How can i get my mic to work? The only solution that I can think of is to get the?X-Fi I/O Dri've. Unfortunately, Creative does not sell this anymore on their store. You can buy it online, though most places I find it at, it is refurbished.
This is what it looks like: http://us.creative.com/products/prod...5&product=4659#
The other alternati've is the X-Fi I/O Console. This, however is rather expensi've (I think it is anyways).
http://us.creative.com/products/prod...duct=47&listby=
Unfortunately those are the only ways I know of. The X-Fi Xtreme Music does not hook into normal front panel solutions.
