Win XP SP3

Unfortunately I destroyed my previous Macbook so I now, I'm going through Bootcamp installation again.
I installed WinXP SP3 integrated on an NTFS partition.
I oculdn't find my Leopard disc,so I just downloaded the bootcamp 2.1 update for xp (it says it's standalaone in the info).
I when I run the .exe nothing at all happens, so I unpacked it and tried running the exe inside the package but still nothing had happened.
I'll try installing bootcamp drivers from the Leopard DVD first and then upgrading, but right now I don't know what the problem migth be..

Hi xchaotic,
although the info on the download page of the BCupdate states that it can be used as stand-alone, I have yet to see anybody who actually did this with success.
When the BCUpdate originally was released in April 2008, Apple clearly stated that it was an update only and would only work when the BootCamp Drivers 2.0 (from the OSX Leopard DVD) were installed before.
Since then Apple has released newer OSX Leopard DVDs with the newer Macs that came out and also as retail version, that already included the 2.1 version of the Drivers (and even newer versions with their latest Macs).
So, how old is your current Mac ?
And when you find the OSX Leopard DVD that came with this particular Mac, try to install the Drivers from it.
Regards
Stefan

  • Win XP SP3 PC wired to WRT54G router repeatedly crashes

    I have a Win XP SP3 desktop that is wired (not wireless) to WRT54G router  (v 3.0 router with latest firmware version 4.21.1).
    The PC repeatedly freezes when I connect to internet using IE or Firefox and has to be re-booted using power button. The following are the 2 error messages from Event Viewer:
    1) The AEGIS Protocol (IEEE 802.1x) v3.1.6.0 service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified -  netevent.dll. Source of the error is Service Control Manager
    2) The PCASp50 NDIS Protocol Driver service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified - netevent.dll. Source of the error is Service Control Manager.
    Other details:
    1) Vonage adapter also connected to router
    2) This PC used to be connected to same router via a wireless-G adapter WUSB54G. That has been disconnected, Linksys software uninstalled and PC is now wired to router. The problem used to happen at that time also.
    3) Router is setup with WPA-PSK security with TKIP and mode G-only.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. I am at my wit's end.

    I also would like to suggest that you download and experiment with another browser, Google Chrome or Opera and see if they are affected also. Their installation may refresh or reload the missing dll's.

  • Cannot print to Lexmark PS Printer, from MacOS 10.4.11 or Win XP SP3

    Since upgrading to Reader 8.1.2, neither my MacOS 10.4.11 nor my Win XP SP3 system will print from Reader to my Lexmark Optra printer, installed on the network (using postscript drivers).
    It appears that the print job is being sent to the printer -- it starts up and whirrs for some little while, but no paper emerges. The status window shows "Busy". This is normal behavior for this printer -- except that it usually prints something.
    All other applications on both the Mac and the PC print ok. And I can print from the full version of Acrobat 5.x installed on the PC. The only application that won't print to the Lexmark Optra is Reader 8.x.
    I can print to an HP C3180 Photosmart printer, plugged directly into the Mac's USB port.
    What's up with this? Did Adobe end up corrupting the print output, so that it's unreadable by the printer?
    Adobe people -- what have you done?

    Mike,
    I've never heard about resetting the printing system on the Mac -- when I opened the Print & FAX icon in System Preferences, I don't see anything about reset -- are you suggesting I delete the Lexmark printer and re-add it?
    In regards to the installation of Acrobat 5.x and Reader 8.1.2 on the same WinXP system -- that's on a physically separate PC -- not emulation on the Mac. And I installed Reader 8.x in order to take advantage of some newer PDF documents that require something more recent that 5.x.
    And ultimately, on both systems .... what's up with the inability to print to the Lexmark printer, when every other application prints successfully. And, by the way, there is also an HP C3100 printer attached to the Mac via a USB cable ... and Reader 8.1.2 prints to it.
    The lexmark optra printer is connected directly to the network here, and all of the PCs and the Mac (only 1) can print to the networked printer without problems -- except for Reader 8.x.
    If you're suggesting I reset printers because of a known issue, I'd appreciate hearing the whole story before I start uninstalling and reinstalling printers.
    Thanks for your reply.

  • Photoshop 7 Fails to Install WIN XP SP3

    Hi:<br /><br />I can not get a new in the box version of PS 7 to install on WIN XP SP3.<br />Using D:\Photoshop\Setup.exe sometimes nothing happens, then 10 minutes later the opening screen shows up, click NEXT, then accept the T&Cs, then the progress bar shows no progress.  <CTRL><ALT><DEL> shows not responding.<br /><br />There are a couple of FAQs relating to permissions.  This computer has a single user and in Control Panel - User Accounts - this account is the administrator.<br /><br />Please help since Adobe does not support this product.<br />Brooke Clarke<br />[email protected]

    >a) Would going into the same user in Safe Mode have fixed it?
    not alone, unless the problem was with a component instead of an installer confusion in the temp folder.
    >b) I gave up on clearing temp folders a long time ago because of a lack of results. Explain to me the steps of clearing temp folders, maybe I've always done it wrong
    I usually leave mine alone too- well every now and then. just delete all the files from them you can (c:\docs & settings\user\local settings\temp, c:\temp, c:\windows\temp)
    usually there's no problem but occasionally an installer will leave part of itself in temp where by odd coincidence (or not so odd, because there are relatively few install apps that systems use - wise and install shield probably 2 of the most used) has a file that's got the same name as one the new installer expects. so it starts reading from that one instead. now the whole install gets screwy.
    >However I have seen some success with grabbing the hidden Install Wizard folder and dragging it to the desktop, doing the install, the putting it back.
    yes, me too. saves time when troubleshooting and the app that fails to install keeps deleting the install files! :)
    > The way I see it, just get on a new admin install the thing, then delete the user. Who cares "why?" if it works, right?
    oh, i misunderstood. i thought you were advocating KEEPING that new admin user as the main user. that's what i mean is a pita having to move settings over from the old acct. to the new one... i guess that CAN work, sometimes, but not always. some apps (not sure if photoshop is among them) want you to install under the user account that will be running it.
    just another tool to keep in the arsenal... :)

  • MSI K9A2 platinum + Win XP sp3: hardware device yellow question mark

    Hi; I finally got a working system (MSIk9a2 plat mobo was defective, many days wasted):
     9ka2 plat with amd 9850 BE
     bios 1.5
     2x1Gb 1066 OC
     WD velociraptor with OS Win XP sp3,
     2x ATI 4850 in X-fire
     all latest drivers from MSI website downloaded and installed
    ...but I still have a yellow questionmark for a RAID-controller (situated in "PCI-slot 9, bus 3, device 0, function 0"). No driver on the original cd that came in the box would help, nor would the drivers I downloaded from MSI for this mobo make a change to this yellow questionmark. I did for sure install the SB600 raid drivers, because under "SCSI and RAID controllers" it shows that the AMD AHCI compatible raid-controller and the AMD RAID console have been correctly installed).
    I suspect this issue is about the Promise raid controller chip, but I cannot find the driver.
     

    You can the drivers from MSI web ==> http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1332

  • ITunes 10 not compatible with Win XP SP3?

    My wife's Dell is running Win XP (32 bit) with SP3, has most of the recent Microsoft security updates, MS Office 2007, and the 2011 version of McAfee. It is rather "plain vanilla" in its configuration, so I don't expect any conflicts with the Win version of iTunes.
    With iTunes 9.2.1.5, her computer & iTunes work fine. I thought I'd try the suggested upgrade to iTunes 10.4.1. It downloaded and installed OK. However, upon the next reboot of the computer, ended up at the black screen and could only restart in safe mode. Repeated restarts, only could get to safe mode though.
    I restored her computer from a disk image, and it ran fine until I tried to upgrade to iTunes 10.4.1 again ... same thing, can only boot to safe mode. I repeated this process a couple more times with different versions of her system's disk images, all run iTunes 9.2.1.5 OK, but crash with an iTunes 10.4.1 install. I also tried this with and without running Norton Win Dr. & Disk Dr. (not running Norton antivirus, rather McAfee) to clean up the registry and system files, but same results.
    Is iTunes 10.x.x only for Vista or Win OS 7? Is there some known Microsoft update or setting that conflicts with iTunes 10.x.x? Does iTunes 10.x.x not play nice with McAfee or any of its security features? Is there some level of Windows security settings that could cause this?
    I'm OK with iTunes 9.2.1.5 for now, but don't want the next Apple device that requires a newer iTunes version to break her computer. We wish to stay at Win XP SP3 as both our work computers use XP and our same current level of program revisions, so we don't want new issues (plus time & cost) going to Win 7 just for the sake of iTunes 10.
    Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
    PS: I personally use a MacPro at home, but that is not a current option for my wife (just saying this in advance for those who's fix will be to "get a Mac" :-)

    Why not update your OS to 10.6?

  • MSI blutetooth BToes (old) - which drivers for Win XP SP3?

    Hello,
    I'm using old Btoes bluetooth dongle and it's working fine on my old Win XP. Please help me which driver to download for the PC which runs on Win XP SP3?
    This is my dongle: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=116&maincat_no=131&cat2_no=251&cat3_no=257
    I had lots of problem while installing it, so please help me if you were using the exact model. First of all, Windows tends to install its drivers and it works that way as well, but I can not make a serial connection to desired bluetooth device.
    I've tried using Win XP SP2 drivers listed here: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=131&prod_no=116.
    However, it didn't work, I can not recall why. I had to reinstall the whole Windows after it. On the other computer it demanded presence of Btoes USB dongle in a USB port in order to boot Win. Like I said, lots of problems. It ended by installing the oldest drivers which came with the CD. Some of the options just don't work.
    Finally, when I take a look at properties, it says "Cambrige Sillicon Radio" version (I don't know how to UL a pic).
    I have a clean Win XP SP3 installation and don't want to ruin it -- which drivers to install and how? Thanks a lot!

    Quote from: Stu on 08-July-09, 01:35:58
    In all honesty, I would say yes, a more recent Bluetooth dongle will most probably be a lot easier for you to set up and use. For example, I use the built-in Bluetooth modules in my MSI Wind and Media Live, both of which use Toshiba hardware, and they are a dream to set up and use, compared to an old Trust bluetooth USB adapter I used some years back. They just work, full stop!
    Then I would follow your advice, and not try to use this Btoes 1.0 any more. Can you suggest me which one to purchase (just to be simple to install, uninstall, work fine with XP SP3 and, well, Win 7). Please note I might then use the new dongle for BT headset (which requires better speed?). Thank you.
    Previous discussion on Btoes 1.0 is over, thank you, all of you guys! 

  • X201i Win XP SP3 Blue Screen on Death

    Dear Support Team, 
    I have a problem for my X201i. I'm use Win XP SP3 for this notebook. the Bluetooth application is not active and I try to restart and go to bios mode for enable Bluetooth using F9 (set bios default) and restart again. and the problem showing after windows startup screen, show the blue screen and restart again. I will try to fix used win XP SP3 CD but the system didn't detect. 
    please how to fix this. I bought this notebook last month.  

    I have a similar problem, except I can't even get to a command prompt or any sort of stopping point b/c my computer keeps restarting after it hits the BSOD. My usb-based keyboard can't stop the process either for some reason, so I can't get into the bios or the safe mode. I can't do squat except watch the blue screen over and over until I just unplug the **** thing and swear a lot. This all started happening right after the reboot following the install of iTunes8, so I gather this is the culprit (and, besides, a ton of folks out there seem to have the same problem). I don't even have an iPod or iPhone, so it's not that synching issue. If this is a way to get people to throw out their Windows PCs in frustration to buy Macs, then that's just a really malicious move. The only other way I see it is that this is another terrible deployment of an iTunes software update for windows, so what happened to reliable beta testing? Either way it ***** ***** *****. Can I just have my computer back please?!
    Any tips on how to break the cycle when the keyboard doesn't function; and then how to resolve the BSOD issue after that? I miss my turntable.

  • Audio problem with win xp sp3 black edition

    Product Name-Hp Pavilion g6-1318AX
    I've recently installed the win xp sp3 black edition.All the drivers are working but there is a problem in recognizing the sound hardware...I have tried installing many IDT HD drivers but its not working...On the properties of IDT HD audio hardware it shows a s follow..
    Device not working..error(code 10)
    Plz help me Sir/Madam.
    Thanking You.

    Hi:
    You probably won't be able to get the audio to work in XP on your model.
    If you did not first install the Chipset driver and Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) Bus Driver for High Definition Audio before you attempted to install any of the audio drivers you tried, then that is part of the reason nothing is working.
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/S​oftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=0&​...
    You may have to start from scratch and install XP if you can't uninstall the audio drivers you tried.
    You can also refer to this guide, read the audio info listed under the Difficult Models section, and hopefully one of those suggestions will work for you.

  • Firmware update problem solved after Win XP SP3 -upd

    I'm one of the numerous victims of ZEN firmware updating problem. At the start I had Win XP SP2 and WMP. My player is ZEN Micro 5gb and after trying to update firmware it had firmware problem and stayed in the recovery mode. Firmware updater and ZEN Media Explorer couldn't recognize the player. So that's how I got it work again:
    1. Rolled back WMP to WMP9, updated it to WMP0.
    2. Removed ZEN Media Explorer and Jukebox driver (all Creative stuff) from Add/Remove programs in Control Panel.
    It didn't solve the problem. I also tried my player with couple of other computers, but it didn't help either.
    3. Installed Win XP SP3 -update.
    4. Reinstalled driver for ZEN Micro in Control Panel.
    5. Ran the firmware updater and this time it did recognize the player.
    (6. Updated WMP back to version and the player's still working.)
    Hope this will help you too.

    I can start the upgrading process, but at around 95% it stops, and says "firmware upgrade failed." I didn't uninstall WMP though, because I have Vista, and I hae no idea how to do it. I can only get my computer to recognize my 6G Zen when I go into recovery mode and choose 'reload firmware' then I connect it to the computer and I can start trying to upgrade it. If I dont go into recovery mode, its just a blank screen, the computer doesnt recognize it, and I can't even turn it off without reseting.
    ?I've tried so much, now when I try to upgrade, it loads a little bit and jumos to the end quckly and says "firmware upgrade fails" and nothing works. Do I have to try to do all the things you listed to fix this?

  • LabVIEW 2010 will not install on Win XP SP3

    I have made several attempts to install LabVIEW 2010 on Win XP SP3. I already have LabVIEW 2009 installed and working.
    For each attempt I accept the default install options and do not put in a serial number. The first attempt got stuck at 2% complete and did not change for 30 minutes. No error messages. I cancelled the install and tried the install again from setup.exe.
    The next two attempts stall at 0% blinking forever. The 4th attempt made it to 18% before it stalled for more than 30 minutes. The next two attempts stalled at 0% repeating and would not cancel. I had to terminate them with Task Manager.
    Why won't LabVIEW 2010 install without stalling before than 30 minutes? Why does it not spit out an error message instead of just stalling? How do I know why it won't install?  How do I fix it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had the same problem. The 2010 install was very slow on my XP SP3  PC. I do not why, but it took very very long time to get past 2% of the setup. But then the install process speeded up. So just let the computer take the time that is needed. It will eventually install. I used the trail version download from NI
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
    (Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

    Hi everyone
                    I want to replace my current factory installed win 7 home os to old version win xp sp3. how can i do that?

    Support for Windows XP has ended. It is highly unlikely there are Windows XP hardware drivers available for your HP laptop. You need to stay with Windows
