Upgrading with cd to windows 8 doesn't work

Good day , 
Last week I bought a laptop runned the lenovo upgrading cd to windows 8 that was delivered with my laptop. I completely followed the instructions. But while it was upgrading I already saw that some of the files weren't found. Later when the installation was done and windows restarted a couple times. I was getting a .exe file that was sayin that a certain file was not found in C. Windows doesn't work at all and needs to reboot everytime but noting happens. 
I hope there was somebody with the same problem and fixed it or somebody knows what's wrong. 
Your sincerely,
Guido 

Thir first thing I would try is a fresh installation of windows 7. Have it perform a complete format of the drive, not a quick format. Make sure you delete all partitions. Also, make sure the DVD is clean. Another thing to look at is the memory. I would download memtest64 and run this on teh machine.

    After Upgrading Acrobat Reader XI to Acrobat XI Pro the previewer in Outlook and Windows Explorer doesn't work.  I have to set the default program for .pdf's to Acrobat Reader in order for the previewer to work.
    Can anyone recommend a solution?

    If I set the default program for viewing PDF as Acrobat XI Pro the a PDF file will open with Acrobat XI Pro, but in Outlook I will get a white screen and the information bubble "This file cannot be previewed because there is no previewer installed for it" and in Windows Explorer I get a white screen in the preview pane.

  • Flashing in Windows Modes doesn't work

    I'm running Windows Vista Business, and when I try to update my BIOS in windows mode, it fails.
    I'm using MSI Live Monitor 3. After finding the bios (1.5), I use "windows mode" to flash.
    A command-line window comes up, and I can see everything getting flashed. However, after it's done it reboots automatically. After both the initial splash-scrren and the SATA-screen showing my drives, I get an CMOS checksum failed error, and I can either start fiddleing with the setting themselves, or just use defaults.
    I've tried both.
    And after both times, after I get back to windows again, Live Monitor 3 says it has an update for me - bios 1.5. So I can only conclude it wasn't installed, somehow.
    Before doing the install, I closed ALL programs, except windows itself. (I'm saying this, because Live Monitor 3 wishes me to close it..........)
    I cannot flash via a floppy-drive because I don't have one.
    Another problem is that DigiCell keeps telling med: "Failed to load driver". I have no idea what it even IS, but I'd just like to see what free software I get. :P
    Thirdly, has anyone heard of problems with external USB drives and MSI mobo's? I have a 500gb My Book drive that throws I/O errors in Vista, but not in XP on another PC...
    My PC is:
    MSI P965 Platinum,
    2.13ghz Core 2 Duo,
    2048mb DDR2 RAM, 533 Mhz

    Thank you Jack!
    It is indeed updated to 1.5 - I just didn't notice, since I had the full-logo thing on.
    I also updated the drivers, but unfortunately that didn't help. :-(
    I've been trying since friday to fix this both on the WD forum (http://websupport.wdc.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5948) and on Microsoft's tech forum (http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.hardware_devices&tid=dc8d09ab-0d98-452c-b2d3-a0948f756dda&cat=en_us_9F280F8D-E6BF-F78C-234A-416CF09D5DC5&lang=en&cr=US&sloc=en-us&m=1&p=1)
    but we've still been unable to fix it...
    To be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with hardware. The drive doesn't work properly on this PC (MSI / Vista) but does on my laptop (Dell / XP), but it has to be checked...
    Basically, it keeps throwing 0x8007045D I/O errors, but I can see noone in here has had similar problems.
    So, thank you for your extremely swift replies and very great help!
    Regards,
    Søren

  • Question '''OS Win2000''' using '''FireFox 5.01 - portable''' Problem: '''Plug-in for Windows-Mediaplayer doesn't work

    '''OS Win2000'''
    using '''FireFox 5.01 - portable'''
    Problem:
    '''Plug-in for Windows-Mediaplayer doesn't work '''
    cause: presumably - Win2000 only copes with WMP 9.0
    Your FF 5.01-portable works only for WMP 12 (??)
    I have no problems with WMP when I use my regular FF 3.6 on this old Win2000. - WMP - Plug-in of FF3.6 works perfectly on my Win2000
    '''question:'''
    What can I do to get WMP running on my Win2000 using FF5.01-portable ?''''''

    See the Portable Firefox support forum for help with that. <br />

    Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!
    in response to Johannes666
    Recommended
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    An answer will require more specific information of the problems you are experiencing Mpittas2.
    In general, if you installed any third party anti-virus utilities, get rid of them. They can cause problems like this.
    There is no need to post your question multiple times. If you don't get an answer right away give it some time, a few hours at least, and please deselect your caps lock key. This will increase the likelihood of receiving competent assistance.

    I bought one Iphone a 3 weeks ago and I can´t listen what people speak with me, because de microphone doesn´t work, I need  to use the speaker, somebody know what I need to do?

    Just thought that I'd report that I've decided on my solution.
    It seems that just making do with what I can find on the US store is the easiest and perhaps also the best way of going about it. All other methods mean trouble. I'm lucky that China hasn't outright blocked the US store, as they HAVE blocked iTunes music store in China already (something about a song about Tibet caused them to block the store entirely).
    So yeah, just going to deal with it I guess. I should be grateful I'm getting anything at all, considering the country I'm in. Still, I just feel so ripped off sometimes when I pay for expensive devices and I can't even get much out of them do to my region. iPhones cost around $700 in China because there's no company like AT&T that you can just sign a contract with to get one, so you have to pay up-front for the phone, and get less features out of it in the end. Makes buying smart phones look like a waste of time and money sometimes, since you can't use the device to do what it was built to do due to censorship and not having any content for your region (though they do have a lot of Chinese apps that I can't use due to not knowing Chinese).

  • I have ipad with IOS 7,  Some apps doesn' t work, safari not open some web site. What can I do?

    I have ipad with IOS 7,  Some apps doesn' t work, safari not open some web site. What can I do?

    Try this and see if it helps.
    Settings>Safari>Clear cookies and data.
    Now close Safari completely. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then "swipe up" or "drag up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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.

  • Just bought my white iphone4 and after syncing with my computer the speaker doesn't work now. I tried reset and even restore and still does not work. Do I have to exchange?

    Just bought my white iphone4 and after syncing with my computer the speaker doesn't work now. I tried reset and even restore and still does not work. Do I have to exchange?

    Make sure the silent switch is not set to mute.  If you can see the red dot, it is on mute.
    It may think you have headphones plugged in, try plugging and unplugging a wired headset a few time.
    The next step would be to restore as new.
    If none of that works, a warranty exchange would be the resolution.

    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.
