Win 7 on T400 - driver problems

I just did a clean install of Win 7 on my Thinkpad T400. It had Vista Basic on it previously. My system is Thinkpad T400 2764-CTO.
After updating and installing drivers I still get an exclamation mark in Device Manager.
The devices that still have an exclamation mark:
PCI Serial Port
PCI Simple Communication Controller
I got all my drivers from here.
What drivers do I need to install to fix this problem?
Also, where can I find drivers for the touchpad? I can no longer customize the scrolling feature on it.

I believe I read elsewhere that those are for the Intel AMT drivers. I didn't install those drivers either because I don't really need that capability. The splats don't bother me.
I don't get the on-screen indicators either and I know I installed the hotkey driver. I didn't install the Fn-Space zoom driver because I prefer the one built-into Win7.

Satellite A300D PSAKCE - Win 7 64bit driver problems

Sorry for my english - google translated
When toshiba plans to release drivers for Windows 7 64bit? I can not use properly my operating system, not to mention that "Toshiba recommends Windows 7", but offers no drivers for it.
The laptop is A300D PSAKCE. every month i go to service because it gives numerous defects.
Before that I was disappointed that the sound card on my new laptop has just Mic recording, no Line in, no Stereo Mix, and had to buy foreign.
What I can tell you is that you need to tighten not a little, much!

Hi
To be honest I also don’t know when Toshiba will release Windows 7 drivers for this notebook but I noticed that every day more and more drivers will be released. I can understand you that you want Windows 7 drivers as fast as possible but for some models it takes longer I think. I’m also waiting for some drivers…
I recommend checking the Toshiba page from time to time. Maybe they will be released in next days. Who knows? ?:|
By the way: Have you tried the Vista drivers? The most of them work on Windows 7 too. I can say this from my own experience.

Win 8.1 - Driver or Software problem

ATTEMPTING to connect EOS10D to WIN 8.1...
It has been connected and is working fine with WIN XP PRO...
So camera is ok... it is a driver problem...
please see NOTES BELOW...
Please provide previous troubleshooting steps, or information that can help Canon assist you:
I have done the following:
1. Went to CANON web site for drivers and it said to get drivers from Microsoft? http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/eos_digital_slr_cameras/eos_10...
2. Went to Microsoft and downloaded Windows8.1-KB2859675-X64 drivers? when I ran it, it indicated told me ?this update was not applicable for my computer??
http://www.windowsobserver.com/2013/09/25/microsoft-updates-camera-codec-pack-for-windows-8-1/
3. Then downloaded Windows8.1-KB2859675-X86 drivers? got the same message?
Has anything changed since the unit funtioned properly?
(Installation of software, setting, cabling etc.):
DRIVER PROBLEMS ...
Any help appreciated...
Thanks in advance
Ed

Actually I got the following (see below) from CANON Support...
I already had the latest FirmWare installed on the EOS 10D and when I changed the COMMUNICATION to "PTP" I was able to see the camera in Windows Explorer... I never got the Wizard to recognize it, but all I really needed was to offload files... I use Photoshop or other software to edit pics...
Thanks for your input and hope this helps someone else...
======================CANNON SUPPORT
The EOS 10D is not compatible with Windows 7 or 8 in the normal communication mode. You can look under the wrench and hammer icon and you will find Communication mode which you will need to change to "PTP" in order to connect using the Windows Camera Wizard.
If you do not have the COMMUNICATION option in your menu then you will need to update your firmware on your EOS 10D. You can find the latest version along with the installation instructions at this link:
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/eos_digital_slr_cameras/eos_10...
Once you have installed that firmware for your EOS 10D you should be able to connect. There will be a zipped file which will contain the .fir file to load to the CF card of the camera using a USB card reader and a pdf file of the instructions for the installation procedure.
Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thank you for choosing Canon.

T400 WiFi Driver problem

First post. I have a T400 and upgraded to Windows 7 Professional 64. Everything worked great. I tried to load the new WiFi 5300 drivers (ver 13) and my T400 cannot shutdown. It reboots and says that a serious driver problem occured. The machine cannot be shutdown without a hard shutdown. I have tried loading the driver using System Update, the Lenovo website and the Intel website all with the same result. If I uninstall the update everything works fine. I'm hoping to get better wifi performance especially N band with the new driver.
Has anyone gotten the new WiFi 5300 Drivers loaded on a T400 with Windows 7 64? What other Thinkvantage apps do you have running?

Hi:
You need these wireless and bluetooth drivers...

Lenovo T400 screen goes dark issue, some video driver problem

Lenovo:
Motherboard:
CPU Type: Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo P8600, 2400 MHz (9 x 267)
Motherboard Chipset: Intel Cantiga GM45
System Memory: 1992 MB (DDR3 SDRAM)
BIOS Type: Phoenix (08/19/08)
Display:
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
3D Accelerator: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
Problem/Issue:
Driver problem appeard after upgrading from XP to Windows 7.
From the Device Manager I saw that ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 was not working properly and
a) I did the "update driver software." After restart the screen light was darker than usual. (This was usual if I was working from battery but I was plugged in this time. )
As I'm not the best with computers I thought my drivers might be in conflict and to prevent serious damages, I just
b) disabled ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 from device manager.
This actually resolved the dark screen problem.
c) then I went to Lenovo support site: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-72858
downloaded newest drivers for ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 (Switchable Graphics Driver)
and Intel 4500MHD (Intel GM45 Express Chip)
For some reason while installine the: Intel GM45 Display Driver (version 8.15.10.2302) gives me error:
"This Computer Does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software"
Also some problem appeard when installing the new downloaded version:
ThinkPad Switchable Graphics Driver (version 8.792.5-110424b-119200C)
d) so I went back to device manager and made an update to ATI Mobility Radeon from there.
Well, I got it working, but the screen went dark again. When I disable the driver it goes back to normal
brightness and when I enable it again, it stays normal.
I'll try to restart and see what happens

We had the excat same issue.
I could get the picuture back pressing the power button until it went to sleep and then wake it up again.
After the I went to device manager to delete all display drivers both Intel and ATI and then reboot.
doing the reboot windows found some drivers it could use.
I then installed the switchable driver from lenovo.
Now windows device manger report two display drivers:
1)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
2)
Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family, Version, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
So it seams the switchable ATI driver take over the Intel card and the Intel driver is not needed.
At least the problem is solved for us.

Windows 7 - HP Laserjet 8500 print driver problem

I have tried everything imaginable to correct this HP 8500n print driver problem with no success, please help!
I cannot correct or get rid of a reoccurring “Incompatible Print Settings” error dialog box message that repeatedly states that “There are one or more conflicting settings. One of the settings is: Output Bin: Mailbox 1, Accessory Output Bin: Not Installed”. The radio button options are “Restore my previous settings or Keep this setting, and I will change it later”. This same dialog message repeats 13 times for all the other various conflicts each time you click on printer properties to change to 2 sided printing or any other printer settings. This printer does not have any of these features attached or set into it.
I am a volunteer that manages a number of computers on our small church LAN, 2 computers operating on MS XP-SP3, 2 on MS Windows 7 Home Premium and my 2 problem computers that came pre-installed with Vista Home Premium of which I have performed an HP OEM upgrade to Window 7.
I have isolated this print driver problem to the Vista operating system and even when computers are upgraded to Windows 7 does not correct this driver error. I have also tried every possible print driver variant of the HP 8500, HP8550, PCL, PS to include the Microsoft versus HP versions with no success. In each case I get this error yet neither of the XP computers or the computers that had Windows 7 as a original operating system have no problems with their print drivers for this printer.
Yes, I have repeatedly searched and upgraded the operating system and print drivers. In desperation I have even tried to find the correctly behaving Windows 7 print driver and transfer it to these Vista upgraded to Windows 7 machines. However I could not isolate the driver location.
The only thing I can conclude is that this errant HP print driver was resident within Vista and remains resident even after a HP OEM Windows 7 upgrade. Additionally, all of these computers are configured to access this printer via its static IP address on the network. The XP computers are 32 bit, all of the Vista upgraded to Win 7 and OEM Win 7 computers are 64 bit machines all with respective OS.
Can anyone please help me correct this problem?

Hi,
Unfortunately I can't see your uploaded image yet as it is awaiting approval from HP.
From what I can see you are correct that HP does supply drivers for this printer and that the drivers for your printer are already included with Windows 7. On the machines affected, try the procedure below to see if it helps at all
Next download revo uninstaller on the link below and install it.
http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-freeware-version.php
Disconnect the printer from the PC.
Run Revo and see if it finds any HP Printer Software installed. If it does, right click the software icon and select uninstall. During the process you may be asked to delete registry entries. If you are, just select all and click delete. Do the same for any left over files and folders. Once completed, reboot the PC.
Re-connect your printer to the PC and follow the guide below.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?&objectID=c02536257
If this helps you will need to repeat the process on each of the affected machines.
Best wishes,

Win 7 x64 Driver for a 32bit CF Cardbus Adapter (x61)

Does anyone know where I can get a Win 7 x64 driver for a 32bit CF cardbus adapter mounted in the Lenovo x61 internal multicard reader?
I am running Win 7 x64 on a Lenovo X61 7675-CTO. I have an Viking 32 Bit High Speed Compact Flash Cardbuss Adapter inserted in the internal multicard reader. When I insert a CF card in the reader, I get "Mass Storage Controller" and "drivers for this device are not installed" error indicators from the Windows Device Manager.
This configuration was working fine for me under Win XP x32. I read the suggestion posted to another thread that one can downgrade to Win 7 x32, but I am hoping for a X64 solution. I have already installed the "6iio10ww" Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit). The problem seems to be that Viking has not released a x64 driver for this product. It seems Microsoft should have installed the proper driver during the OS install since this device was around before the Win 7 was introduced.
Can anyone suggest a source for the proper driver or an alternative CF card cardbus adapter known to work with Win 7 x64 OS?

Thanks!
Apologies for now double-posting: new thread

Lenovo Drivers Insufficient for update to 8.1 - Driver problem - H430

Lenovo Drivers Insufficient for update to 8.1 - Driver problem (USB?) - H430
my lenovo H430 is about 6 months old - worked okay with preinstalled Windows 8
After update to Windows 8.1 computer no longer seemed to work well at all, although I am unable to provide hard evidence, but clearly it was not working as smoothly as in the previous 8 version with lots of irritating little problems - including sound.
One thing that very clearly was not functioning as it had in 8 version was the USB disconnect icon. In 8 you only had to click on icon and the USB selection window would open immediately. Additionally all USB connections would be shown - back and front USB. Select the USB to be disconnected and it would be disconnected immediately (providing not in use). After update to 8.1 this was no longer the case.
In 8.1 disconnect icon no longer worked as it had done in 8. After clicking on icon there was now always a lengthy pause, followed by the sound of the computer working (whirring sound) and then after a while the USB selection window would finally open. Sometimes it was necessary to click on icon a few times to get any reaction at all. A small MP3 player I had charged up on my computer every morning (front USB) in windows 8, was always in USB list, and disconnected without problem in 8. In 8.1 it was no longer in list and only charged sporadically (would stop charging, but if I clicked on USB icon it would start charging again - although still not shown in USB list).
After about two weeks of 8.1 my screen suddenly - but only briefly - went black twice. I ran a sfc /scannow. problems were found but could not be resolved. I did a Dism /Online/Clean-Image/RestoreHealth this was reported as being successful. About two days later my computer went into blue screen BSOD - "critical-services-failure" - from which I was unable to get out of. The only option open was the Lenovo restore option. Computer was returned to factory state with los of all data.
back to Windows 8 the computer once again worked okay - no problems - and USB icon once again worked correctly (including with MP3 player).
About 2 weeks later after receiving MS messages to update to 8.1 I called Lenovo support and asked about update to drivers for 8.1.
the following list was given:
Chipset: Intel chipset Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version : 9.4.0.1022
Video: CPP2 AMD DISCRETE VGA CARD DRIVER for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 13.152
Audio: Realtek Audio Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 6.0.1.7030
LAN: Realtek Lan Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 8.018.0621.2013
STORAGE: Intel RST Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) - Desktop Version: 12.8.0.1016
I updated to 8.1 and then updated all the above drivers (no USB driver update was available).
The same problems as the last update to 8.1 and USB was as bad as it was in last 8.1
Some days later my computer went into blue screen BSOD once again - although this time did not stay stuck there, and quickly restarted - due to speed of restart I did not get time to read all the text and discover the cause of BSOD.
Computer is still running badly - particularly the USB icon disconnect.
Called Lenovo support but they have been no help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lenovo are failing us with the 8.1 update and the DRIVERS FOR 8.1
BSOD
all i could find was this: (probably refers to after BSOD - the restarting part after BSOD???)

I have now seen the suggestion by Tomaspoko and Brillow at http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/Windows-8-1-update-S440-ThinkPad-black-screen-wit...
Despite the AMD driver giving an error during install at the last stage of the suggested fix, this has now yielded a working switchable graphics for my S540 for the first time with Windows 8.1. Catalyst Control Center also works for the first time, so thank you to both the above-mentioned posters for a solution that does work.
Hopefully in time AMD will release a non-broken updated AMD driver and CCC package.
Thanks again for a nice solution from this forum - the problem was driving me nuts!

Audio driver problem

I have what I think is an unusual symptom. My audio device comes and goes. When I have a device, it is a yellow Multimedia Audio Controller. Checking Device Manager tells me that I have no audio device installed. Why not? What happened to my audio device? I have not intentionally removed or disabled it, just one day it wasn't working. I visited Tech Guy and got advice from a few people and the prevailing theme seemed to be one of driver problems. So, I downloaded Realtek AC'97 Audio, attempted to install it but got a blue screen (not the BSOD) which said it was shutting me down to prevent damage to my computer and a full screen of info. It shuts down too quickly to read all of the info. Anyone out there got any ideas? I'm using a 6 year old factory refurb T43 with Win Pro.

@clairienz:
it looks, that mcq's T43 has flexing of the southbridge - that can happen to every notebook brand and model (my DELL Latitude had the same issue a couple of years ago). The USB 2.0 - message is an indicator for it.
The Lenovo audio driver in normal cases works fine with XP service pack 3, even it is an older driver.
One thing very often will be forgotten while installation:
Executing the downloaded package only extracts it to C:\DRIVERS\WIN\Audio. After that the setup.exe must be executed additionally.

M 8215 D1U network driver problem

Installed a new hard drive (old one crashed), loaded Win XP Pro no problems. Trying to load network driver first so that getting other drivers would be easier. Used q37z53usa download from Lenovo. When I execute SETUPBD per instructions I get an error "..... is not a valid Win32 application". What am I doing wrong or what else can I try?
Thanks, Kevin

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Win7 and ATI hd 3400 series driver problem

Hi guys
i have installed win7 on my T400. generally there is not driver problem. but in device manager window there is a '!' on ATI mobility Radeon hd 3400 Series. i have downloaded ATI Display Driver for Windows 7 32bit and 64bit from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-BETA.html#m8xdiscrete but there is not any change.
1-is it a serious problem?
2-how can i solve this problem?
best regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since your system shows two display adapters, you do have switchable graphics. Deinstall the ATI driver and install the Switchable Graphics driver. This package contains drivers for both cards and allows them to cooperate.

Help How do I fix this?????

Maxtor one touch III firewire 800 its connected to my Titanium G$ Powerbook I am beginning to think its just another drive failure

Computer is balky random freezes across apps. Two hard drive cleans later (their scan reveals no hard drive problems) photo shop won't work at all, magic touch mouse inoperable and their diagnoses is corrupted data? Anybody heard of this?

Computer is balky random freezes across apps. Two hard drive cleans later (their scan reveals no hard drive problems) photo shop won't work at all, magic touch mouse inoperable and their diagnoses is corrupted data? Anybody heard of this?

Well, yes, data does get corrupted sometimes.
The trick is finding what data.
By 'cleaned' are you therefor meaning that the drive has been erased and the system re-installed?
Because that's the quickest way to deal with such a situation.
Back up the system first of course,
Add back 3rd party apps one at a time in case one of them is causing the problem.
