TVAC and other TV utilities not recognizin​g wireless card -- even after reinstall attempts

so first things first, im on a T61p, XP pro SP3, Intel 4965AGN
i guess we'll start from the top...
1.) TVAC works great, im happy.
2.) i go to update all my system drivers through the update utility. wireless driver update hangs midway through, and wont connect on restart. no surprise.
3.) i get the driver on a different machine from the lenovo support page. install, reboot, card works, but only through the windows utility. TVAC doesnt recognize it to configure connections, and it doesnt show up in the FnF5 menu.
4.) attempt to repair TVAC through the control panel. no dice.
5.) uninstall both the wireless card and TVAC, then reinstall in that order. nada. attempt in reverse order. zilch.
6.) attempt 5 in safe mode. still nothing. not showing up. say screw it and use the windows utility, then get pissed when i realize i need static IP switching capabilities.
so, something isnt fully un-installing, or so i'd guess. i'd assume its not a compatibility issue with the new driver, though it could be.
any advice to get it working correctly, even if its retrying a particular step?

someone must know... help!

    Recently I was working on my home Network and lost myPassword for my Home wireless connection. After many attempts, I remembered thepassword and was able to get in. Now the MacBook Pro only works at home on aHard wire connection. I have an additional 9 devices on the same network, allare functioning properly. The Air connection works fine at any other Networksout side the Home connection. I did a PRAM reset, deleted the Network profileand rebuilt in System Preferences. Still unable to connect wireless on Homenetwork. Any Ideas?

    I seem to have fixed it by putting <div  class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

  • Speakers work for phone and other apps, but not for music playback on 4G after downloading ios 8.0.2

    I know others are having off the wall issues with sound on their iPhones after installing the iOS 8.0.2...In my case? Thank God the sound for phone calls and alarms work, but the same can't be said for when I try to play music or a radio app?? And the speaker option on my voice mail sticks....
    There are 1001 other issues that I have with this so called upgrade, and let's just say that I've been looking at using my AT&T other phone options since I'm ready to upgrade....Since this is the second time in about a year that I've gone through **** and back with an Apple OS upgrade and there just isn't the cache there once was with owning an iPhone? I'm seriously questioning why be brand loyal when I can't find an answer to my issue and the one solution is to go to the Apple Store and deal with the arrogant and rude clerks OR try and see if someone has a decent solution, OR wait for weeks for Apple to offer a bug fix or access to older OS's!
    (BTW--I HATE how this OS kills the battery! And I'm not happy with the 2 apps that I didn't want and can't get rid of!)

    I was hoping that the iOS 8.1 update would have fixed my problem, but it has not. The app updates continue to hang and will not up date unless I follow the procedures mentioned earlier. I have spoken to Apple Care, and their only suggestion was to do a network settings reset. This worked once, but on the following days as more app updates appeared, they would not download. Once again, the only way to achieve my goal is to do one of the following;
    Change networks
    Sync through iTunes
    Reset Network Settings
    Turn off Wi Fi and use Cellular Data (not my preferred option especially while at home and connected to my home network).
    I think Apple are loosing the plot and seem to be chasing profits more than producing a good reliable product. I would have respected the company more if they had admitted that iOS8 was not ready for general release rather than release a faulty system causing so many problems.

  • Firefox will not open on my computer, even after reinstall, with no error message or when I try to run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p. Help?

    I recently installed firefox so I could use an adblocker. It installed just fine, and it worked just fine for about three days. Then yesterday it stopped opening. I'm on a Toshiba running Windows 7. The icon highlights when I click on it, but then it stops and won't open the browser at all. When I try to run it with the manual command "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p, I get the error message, "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location." I installed it to that location, and I don't need a disk. I'm connected to the Internet just fine and my other browsers (Chrome and IE) work the same as always. But they're swamped with ads and I really was happy wih Firefox when it was opening...how can I fix this issue?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Data Execution Prevention (DEP) has not allowed firefox to start, even after reinstalling firefox

    Firefox will not start. Windows message tells me Data Execution Prevention (DEP)has prevented this program from starting. Help says: If DEP notices a program on your computer using memory incorrectly, it closes the program and notifies you.

    Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

  • Could not scan for wireless networks, even after restoration

    Lately I have been having peoblems with connecting to my home wifi, and most other places. When I say most other places, I mean that sometimes it scans when I'm out of the house, but very infrequent. Hoping it was a software issue, I backed it up, and am in the process of restoring back up. During the "from the facctory" setup, I tried to connect to wifi, but the same problem occured. I'm thinking it's a hardware issue. Hopfully someone can help me out !

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Restore as new.
    If neither of the above resolves take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • I can not get Firefox to play music backgrounds on pages in browsers it works in IE and other browsers but not firefox, what HTML or Jave script do I need too use to make them work?

    I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
    I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
    I thank you in advance

    If a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
    BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

  • Some PDF files and other emails do not display the whole page. Is there a way to change that?

    Some PDF files and other emails do not display the whole page. Is there a way to change that?

    If an app does not behave as expected, try closing the app completely and reboot the iPad. It appears as though you have the original iPad. It helps if you list your iPad model and the iOS that you are running.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Using Mac OSX 10.7.1: recently replaced our DSL modum & wireless router and suddently I can't get some web sites to load. Many do, but Twitter and others often do not. I've reset the browsing historty, forms, cookies and cache but it continues to happen.

    Ok, first thing, why are you doing anything with WAMP or XAMPP when you're running a Mac? MAMP should be what you want unless you're not explaining part of what you are trying to do.
    2nd thing, I haven't used MAMP in a while, but there are two possibilities for not seeing what you want to see once you have MAMP turned on. One possibility is that you already have "Web Sharing" turned on in your Sharing Preference Pane. If that is the case, port 80 will already be taken and you'll be seeing the default Apache install (files are stored at /Library/WebServer/Documents/). This would push MAMP to either not turn on it's web serving capabilities, or to push it to another port. The other possibility is that MAMP defaults to another port anyway. So instead of localhost, you might have to type in localhost:8080 or something similar. I believe the control panel that gets installed can take you to the currently MAMP-served page, and it can also help you change which port your serving on.
    80 is the default port for web serving and the ONLY port that will let you get straight to the server without having to type in webaddress.com:port# instead of just webaddress.com.

  • Facebook, hotmail and other sites are not working on safari?

    If you look at the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. It appears you are not the only two having this problem.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    is mandatory to have a credit card to my account? and if I do not have a credit card I can not make a Itunes Account?

    Hi,
    In addition to Roger's post, you will need a credit or debit card at a future date if you want to buy from Istore.
    You can use itunes gift cards that have been purchased from external sources. Card needed if to want to buy gift card from Istore.
