Win7 x64 on X301 questions

I have an X301, type 2776-P8U, with XP Pro on it. I want to install Win 7 64 bit on it. Has anyone done this successfully? Does everything work okay? Anything to be aware of? Thanks.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

yes you can install the windows 7 64 bit OS on it. if you let windows 7 do all the automatic updates, it would download most of the device drivers other than these (so you would have do it manually):
1. Thinkvantage Fingerprint Reader
2. Monitor driver (otherwise you can't change the brightness with with Fn + Home/End function).
3. Thinkvantage Protection systems (this allows the laptop to park the hdd's head when it senses out of normal motions).
4. Hotkey Utilities (so you can use the Fn + F2/F3/F4/Fx functions).
5. Thinkvantage Power Manager and Drivers for setting various power plans.
6. Thinkvantage Ultranav
All your X301 related drivers can be downloaded from the following page.

PrE-10 Will not start in Win7(x64)

I sincerely hope this is not redundant, but I have spent days on this forum looking for answers, but with no luck. I have seen many similar questions, but none of the 'fixes' proposed are relevant, or do not work for me.
History:
I have been running PrE-10 since its release, on Win-7(32-bit). I recently had a system crash after installing Windows-8 Beta and had to wipe my hard drive and start from scratch. This time I loaded Win-7 (x64). All my original apps I had stored on an external drive. Some re-installed, some not. I had to re-download PSE-10, and PrE-10 as 64-bit apps.
PSE-10 and the associated Organizer, work fine as before. PrE-10 however does not start. I get the splash screen, with the options of NEW, OPEN and Organizer. Of these, only Organizer opens. The other two options either bring up a Windows Error box 'Pre-10 has failed to start', or it just sits and does nothing.
It is not a system limitation as I have far more than the requirements needed to run it and as I said, it worked fine in the 32-bit version, and nothing else has changed (that I have input), so I am baffled.
As I said, I have done many of the proposed fixes I have seen on the forum, if they are pertinent to my system, and even some that were not. I have now completed the reinstallation of most of my applications, and so far only PrE is causing a problem, but it is very important to me as I am working on a project that requires it.
I have done a Belarc report, but I do not see a link to upload it. I see links for images, videos, tables and weblinks, but nothing for files (pdf). I will attempt to load it as an image and see if this works. I do not want to post it as text or HTML as it is 7 pages long! (Nope, it does not insert). Perhaps someone can tell me how to upload the file.

This is frustrating! I just answered this post at length, but when I posted it it disappered!
Guess I have to start over and hope for the best!
Is that an HP laptop?
No, it is a desktop. However it is an HP 'hybrid' all-in-one, and uses a lot of laptop hardware and software to keep the low profile case.

Check the ATI or nVidia or ??? website to be sure you have a current driver
Another interesting story, that! Nvidia/GeForce does an auto detect and correctly identifies the graphics card, and sends me to a link to upgrade the driver. The driver page says it is for Vista x64 and Win7 x64 (even its long name has 'win7-x64' in it). I download and attempt an install, and it comes back with "you are running Windows 7 64-bit. This driver is for Vista only. Installer closing." I went back and tried 4 other Win-7 x64 drivers, all reported the same thing, even though they state on the site they are for Win7 x-64. I then went to the Device Manager and tried to update the driver, but it reported using 'the most current driver available'. So I uninstalled the current Nvidia driver, which put me into VGA mode. I then went to Windows Update and did a search for updates. It found a missing Nvidia driver and called it 'Nvidia Driver for Win7 x64'. I downoaded and installed it and my system returned to normal 1440 x 900 display. I checked the driver info and it is the same driver as the original, including the release date, so apparently the original driver was in fact x64 compatible, and there does not appear to be an updated driver for it.
Also, for laptops... if that is what you have

[s205] How to install Win7 x64 from scratch on a new hdd?

Hello,
I have a little problem to solve...
I own a s205. My hard drive died. I replaced it with a new one. After that I tried to install Win7 x64. During the install it created 2 small partitions. It was strange to me, I saw it for the first time. Later I read that this is because of UEFI.
Anyway, everything installed good, but after installing drivers I encountered few problems. Neither of net card were working. I started to look for some informations and I know that the problem is UEFI.
My question - can anyone write a guide how to install Win7 x64 on s205 in Legacy mode, so everything would work like before? Unfortunately I don't have any rescue dvds or any other source of Lenovos images.
Regards,
Daniel

Interlacing in capture from miniDV now occurs with upgrade to Win7 x64

Hi there...
this is my first attempt to post a question on the forum, so thankyou in advance for any help or advice.
I used to run Prem Pro CS4 on a Windows XP (32bit) system with no problems at all.
I since upgraded my OS to Win7 x64 and a perculiar thing happened - when capturing from MiniDV the capture preview is very interlaced -with camera motion. With capture complete and clips placed in the timeline, the interlacing is not at all evident. - it is only apparent at the capture stage.
Thinking it was my Nvidia 8600GT graphics card, I upgraded to Nvidia 9800GT (1GB) - still the same problem. RAM was also give an upgrade to 8GB.
I understand the concept behind interlacing - what has me puzzled is why with win7 this capture interlacing has happened and for the sake of clarity would love to have it rectified.
Otherwise Premiere runs smooth as silk.
Any thoughts or advide would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
Matt

Boot Camp, Win7 x64 and Bitlocker

Has anyone successfully installed Win7 x64 via Boot Camp and enabled BitLocker? If you have how did you do it?
Thanks,
SMF

repoman_1966,
That answers one question ... no TPM ... but according to the bitlocker docs you can, through policy settings, allow bitlocker to use an external USB key instead if a TPM module is not present. This allows bitlocker to work on computers without a TPM. The catch is that the USB port & device must be accessible during the boot process prior to the OS being loaded - something that not all computers are capable of. According to Apple support on Macbooks the USB is available during the boot process but of course they can not confirm that it will work ... they don't support Microsoft products ...;)
I'm looking to see if anyone has actually done it to confirm what the support folks believe will work.
Thanks.

MSI DKA790GX PLATINIUM msi core center bsod on startup win7 x64

i installed core center on win7 x64, i get bsod rushtop64.sys on startup.

Did you see this in the link? Also it's dual-core-center.
Quote
• If you are using an ATI graphic card, you must install ver. 8.41 driver and its additional applications to make Dual CoreCenter works normally. It is better to use recommended installation while installing an ATI VGA driver.
But that brings me to my next question, why would you install and use that app anyway?
Hardly anybody does.

Firefox 6.0.1 causes extreme problems with ATI Catalyst 10.x drivers on a Win7 x64 system. When I roll back to Firefox 6.0, no problems. Can this be resolved?

Firefox 6.0.1 causes extreme problems with ATI Catalyst 10.x drivers on a Win7 x64 system. Took me quite awhile to identify, but when I roll back to Firefox 6.0, no problems. Once Firefox recognizes this and reinstalls the 6.0.1 update then severe display driver problems occur causing very erratic display behavior and ultimately rendering the system inoperative. The problem appears to occur within a minute or two after Firefox has been opened and it occurs even if Firefox has been subsequently closed prior to the actual event taking place. I have attempted this 6 times just to ensure that the problem was associated with the 6.0.1 update.

Z87-G45 Gaming not able to install Win7 x64 with Samsung 840 EVO

I have a brand new:
i5 4570
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
250GB Samsung 840 EVO
1x 8GB Corsair ValueRam DDR3 1600
I got everything hooked up properly, but I am not able to install Win7 x64 through an USB pen drive (Kingston Datatravel 32GB USB3) I have a proper official and Legit MSDN ISO, formatted by the Win7 USB tool from MS itself.
Note that i do not have an optical device (DVD) installed so I cannot use it 'the old way'.
Bios settings are okay, everything is recognized
USB Legacy - Kingston Datatraveler
HDD Legacy - Samsung 840 EVO
Win7 setup loads properly; but before I can select the Harddrive / SSD to install Win7 on I get prompted that additional (3rd party) drivers are needed to proceed. The volume is not recognized. This happens 9 out of 10 times. In the 10% cases I do get the option to format the SSD and/or create partitions. However, installation fails after all, cannot load or find file ...
What I've tried so far:
Switch out the SATA cables and power cables
Switch through the various SATA ports on the MB 1 through 6
Tried UEFI and UEFI/Legacy (UEFI doesn't seem to work at all)
Update UEFI to V 1.50
All the above result in the case mentioned.
I have succesfully installed the SSD in an other PC, using the same pen drive and ISO and it worked like a charme, thus ruling out that the SSD, pen drive or image is corrupt.
Even when I switched out the SSD after Win7 setup has succesfully copied, unpacked and installed all the files (doing this on the other machine where it works like a charm). Then switching it to the MSI Z87...it fails; starting the setup procedure right from the start, like nothing was ever written on the SSD...
Finally i turned to Win8, and guess what, it installed without any glitches on the MSI Z87
What am I missing here, I would really want to install Win7 instead of Win8
Forgot to enable / disable something in the UEFI? I really don't know, google doesn't give much information on this specific problem (SSD is recognized properly by the BIOS / UEFI as far as I can tell)
The only thing I have not tried out so far is updating the Samsung SSD firmware to the 1.0 version which has been release 3 days ago...
Any clues, tips, hunches??

Quote from: Bernhard on 25-October-13, 18:33:41
Did you disable Secure Boot in the BIOS? If not, then Win7 won't load.
Hmmm not sure, thanks for the reply, will have to look into that later today!
I didn't change it from the default setting I think, unless it is part of the Win8 features in the UEFI. All where disabled by default, and I kept them disabled.
Where is Secure Boot listed in the UEFI, and any idea wether it is enabled by default?
::EDIT::
Found it in some screenshots, I cannot recall from the top of my head wether it was enabled or disabled, allthough my gutt feeling says it already is disabled.

Adobe programs don't work on Win7 x64 with IE8 x32

I have been working for the last 2 hours trying to get adobe flash 10.1 downloaded and installed on Win7 x64 and IE8 x32. It downloads and crashes and never finishes the install, even though sometimes the adobe site tells me it's installed. when I access a website it asks to download the flash player each and every time.
Mind you I don't have a lot of time to troubleshoot and fix adobe issues. I have clients to take care of and if your not going to make your product easier to use then I will block all adobe flash sites from my clients computers. Needless to say this will make them angry at me but let me tell you I don't forgive. I will bash you each and every time a client calls me.

I don't understand - in your post you mention "new Flash Player" several times, but in the subject you mention 10.2...?
What is the exact FP version you have?
For your blue box problem, have you tried to disable Hardware Acceleration?

IPhone name not recognized by Win7 x64

Hi,
I have 2 iPhone 4, both are using one Apple universal docker to connect to PC, phone has its own name, and diaplay properly on PC wherever the device name is used, ie, under My Computer, Portable Devices. iPhone 4 are shown as A's iPhone or B's iPhone, as Digital Camera.
I encountered this issue after installed iTunes 10.5 or upgraded to iOS 5, I am not sure which one caused the problem. The issue is, B phone is no longer recognized as B by Win7 x64, while A phone has no problem at all, both are with iOS 5.
When I put B phone to docker or even connect to PC directly, it is always recognized as A, the device name is always A's name, but the content (camera photo etc) is still B's content.
When using iTunes, phone's name displays correctly.
I connected B phone to another USB port which is never used by iPhone before, Win7 detected and tried to download/install and finally, B phone is shown as Apple Portable Device, no Phone Name, not as Digital Camera as before. Again in iTunes, both phones are shown correctly with their own name.
Not a big issue but a little bit confused, how to correct device name here?
Thanks

Type "iphone not recognized by itunes" in the search box at the top of this page.

ITunes (Win7 x64) is no longer opening after the latest version update

iTunes (Win7 x64) is no longer opening after the latest version update - I have attempted an un/reinstall - can anyone offer other suggestions?
I am running Windows 7 64-bit, and am trying to reinstall the 64-bit iTunes from the iTunes website. I previously have had this working for the last few years with no major issues, the Apple Software Updater has been pestering me for some time so I finally got it to update. However now iTunes will not start, if I select the icons nothing happens. There are no iTunes applications running in the background in Task Manager either.
I look forward to your suggestions.
Thanks,
James.

1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Files

3. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REAPIR.

Win7 x64 Installation on late 2007 MBP+Mountain Lion

Dear All,
As a long time mac and bootcamp user, I've never expected to face this problem but I've been trying to do this for 3 days.
I'm having trouble installing bootcamp (win7 x64 ultimate) into my late 2007 MBP (2.4GHZ core 2 duo)
Pretty much use the bootcamp assistant from start to finish, tried using install dvd and create boot-able USB stick (by changing the plist.info on the bootcamp assistant package, as my MBP isn't supported.)
With USB stick created by bootcamp assistant, my mbp just simply won't read it even during startup and rEFit startup.
Sometimes it goes into the blank state and says no bootable device.
With win7 install DVD, whenever I use built in superdrive, it got ejected after 2-3 mins,
When I tried using Samsung external dvd burner/player, in place of who-knows dead superdrive, it went into blank screen with only a dash blinking (just like when the first time you start a PC) then disc stop spinning after awhile.
Burned few copy DVDs from extracted ISO (from the orginial install disc) and came up with same results
Recent changes, current condition,etc:
- Changed the stock 160gb harddrive into WD500GB blue scorpio.
- Installed fresh OSX Mountain Lion downloaded from App Store (was Lion) and updated everything.
- Had the very same win7 on bootcamp 3 installed on snow leopard few years ago and keeping it even with Lion (the exact same dvd!)
- Superdrive cannot be used to write but can read normally (install DVD shows up normally in OSX environment.)
- With USB created by bootcamp assistant, rEFit shows "legacy booting" and can't find files inside the USB
- Installation is working flawlessly on my 2011 iMac.
- Can still boot into bootcamp on old internal stock hdd (using external case)
- DVDs burned are Verbatim DVD-R and Sony DVD-R, both are top brands.
- Burner I tried to burn them are 2011 iMac's, 2012 MBP's, Samsung external dvd burner (all fail to boot on my 2007 MBP)
- Tried the method to create usb stick on windows 7, still can't boot.
- Burned DVD using Nero and alcohol 120% on windows 7, still fail.
I wonder if you guys can help me, I'm a designer and I really need to install Corel Draw on bootcamp so I can work on some CDR files on my MBP. And other stuff such as office's finance control program that can only work under windows.
Thanks in advance!

Found a workaround, to sum it up, it's pretty much my dead internal superdrive (as for unbootable USB, that's still a mistery). What I did was moving the HDD to my 2012 MBP and install from there. The problem is now that since I installed it on another machine (with ofc all different hardwares) I got blue screen whenever I tried to start Windows7 (in 2007 MBP after moving the HDD back there).
Next step will be replacing the superdrive on 2007 MBP with 2012's. Or if someone got a suggestion like installing the drivers via target disk mode etc, please advice
