Windows 8.1 64bit Lagging issues

Hi,
I've installed Windows 8.1 Enterprise.My Laptop model is Compaq Presario CQ50-130US. Windows 8.1 was running fine for few days. Then suddenly, started to Lag or stop for 10-20sec. Nothing happens during this time. Also, sometimes, I'm unable to "Lock/Shut
down/Restart".
I don't know what the problem is. Please help me fix this issue.
Thanks,
Anil

Hi Kumaranil_1918,
If my understanding is right, the computer hangs randomly and we can’t Lock/Shut down/ Restart sometimes.
Do you receive any error code? And have you check the event viewer?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Update the drivers and Windows updates
2. Use the task manager to check which program occupy the large amount of the system resource as my last reply.
For more information, please refer to the following KB.

Some issues after clean installing windows 7 pro 64bit

Hi,
I have a couple of issues, I clean installed windows 7 pro, 64bit, (vanilla) restored my license with ABR and used system update to download all the drivers. (no issues until here) But after restarting the system, I found this issues:
1. I have to put the bios in legacy mode for system to boot. Otherwise it gives me a "no operating system found" message. Is there any way to make a proper installation for the system to boot in UEFI and LEGACY?
2. System update didn't install thinkvantage center. (the program that stays in the taskbar). Should this be installed manually? Or system update should have installed it?
3*. I can not use lenovo driver page of my x120e. In IE it shows me repeatedly the wizard to choose my model, although I enter the correct info there. It starts all over again and again. Tried opera, I can see the drivers page, but I can't browse, or expand none of the sections. (all I can think of this, do I need java for the page to work?)
3*. UPDATE: After installing IE 9, java and flash player, still not working. Opera too. Google Chrome works fine. What's the matter with IE and OPERA? What component do I need to make IE work with lenovo drivers download page?
Can anyone help me? Never had to deal with these issues.
Thanks in advance

Who helped you today? Do not forget to thank him.
My hardware: TP x120e 0596-2ru. Windows 7, sp1, 64Bit, English, installed in UEFI mode.

Hello,
Have you tried wiping the hard disk drive and reinstalling Windows 7 Professional x64 from the factory recovery discs while the BIOS is set to UEFI? If so, did that work?

Adobe CS3 Windows 7 Pro 64bit Issues

I recently upgraded to Windows 7 Pro 64bit Edition after my system crashed.
I installed Adobe CS3 without a problem and it ran fine for a little while. Then one
day I started up Photoshop and then it just stopped working. So I decided to uninstall
it and reinstall it. When I started the installation, it halted and asked for this Adobe.dll file
so it complete. I clicked cancel and it aborted.
I have read many of the forums and they all suggest downloading a file or windows xp mode
or virtual pc.
I have downloaded the file that it needs and it still aborts the installation. I have downloaded
windows xp mode and installed it succesfully but I have no wish to use this software virtually
because it is limited in the amount of memory it can use and seems to be a bit sluggish
regardless of how much memory I allow it to have access to. I also have no access to my second
monitor.
Now that I have tried to install cs3 on multiple occasions, i now have to call Adobe so I can have
them reactive my copy. Adobe has to have some sort of work around or patch for this
because I cant forsee spending another grand for an upgrade to solve my problem.
Here is my system specs:
HP Pavilion M8530f
AMD Phenom 9550 X4 Quad-Core processor 2.2 gigahertz
7 gigabytes memory
ATI Radeon HD 5750 Video card
2 monitors
2 terrabyte hard drive

I am hoping its not because this a serious waste of having a 64 bit system if it is. do you know if this may be cause by a certain release version of cs3? i can imagine why any software would ask me to locate adobepdf.dll when it find itself on the cd. this is very puzzling. i have eliminated the video card, hard drive, and processor. frankly, i don't think i should work so hard to figure out how to eliminate a software especially when i paid so much money for it. if adobe doesn't find a solution, i guess i will have to find some other software that gets the job done without all these head aches.

New desktop computer with windows 7 64bit text issue's with FF version 8,7,6

I have a new CPU running Windows 7 premium 64bit using original 17" monitor. Having multiple problems with text in FF version 8, 7, 6, text overlapping other text, images, or cut in half etc. Tried IE 9 & Chrome text ok mostly size problems. Have tried many suggestions made in Firefox forums. Like turn off hardware acceleration, tried downloading updates that were supposed to monitor & change different web pages.
All no difference. I prefer Firefox but if it won't work with win 7 I don't know what to do.

That's one of the first things I tried, it almost seems like the problem goes deeper. I've read in the forums some say to allow pages to choose their own font others say the opposite. How do I get images of my settings so I can show them?

Install Windows 8.1 64bit on a Macbook Pro Late 2008 (using bootcamp 4.0.4033)

Hi everyone, I just tried to install windows 8.1 64bit (x64) on my MacBook Pro 15'' Late 2008 (Core 2 Duo 2.4Ghz - 4GB RAM - Nvidia 9600M GT 512Mo), running Mavericks (10.9.5), and successed it with bootcamp 4.0.4033.
I installed it from scratch (new partition, no update from windows 7), in less than 1h following these very simple steps :
Step "0" :
- You'll need an two-button usb mouse plugged
- Make sure your 64bit kernel is activated by typing this line of command in the terminal :
sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture x86_64
If you need to cancel it, simply type this :
sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture i386
I don't really know if this activation is necessary, but I did it 6 months ago for After Effects and maybe this activation has an effect on what happens next.
Step 1 : download the contents of bootcamp 4.0.4033 on a USB key, downloadable here : Boot Camp Support Software 4.0.4033
After the download, you'll need to unzip this file in your usb key.
NB : This bootcamp only works from XP to windows 7, but it will be enough for your old-timer laptop.
Step 2 : Create a new NTFS partition on your HDD (using the disk utility)
Windows 8.1 64 bit needs at least 20GB, so I recommend a 100GB partition as a minimum for a correct running OS (the "15%" rule).
NB : Windows 8.1 will run over a NTFS partition and nothing else.
Step 3 : Insert your bootable windows 64bit 8.1 (CD or USB key).
Step 4 : Reboot your laptop, and keep pressed the Alt key just after the boot bell sound.
The OS selection screen loads. Once appeared, you can release the Alt key.
Step 5 : If your bootable device is working, the OS selection screen will display a "Windows 8.1" HDD or CD icon. Click on it and presse "enter".
Maybe you'll see a "UFI Windows" or "UFI Boot" or "UFI something...", this doesn't work.
After pressing "enter", the windows 8.1 installation process will start.
Step 6 : During the installation process, you'll have to chose the destination partition for your OS.
Select the partition you've created earlier (step 2)
Following the windows 8.1 steps are very simple.
NB : Don't forget to press the Alt key when windows 8.1 tries to restart!
Step 7 : Eject your windows 8.1 CD/usb key, then reboot holding Alt key, and select your freshly installed windows OS in the selection screen
Step 8 : After windows 8.1 is loaded, insert your usb key with Bootcamp 4.0.4033, open the "bootcamp" folder, right-click on the bootcamp setup, and click on "properties".
Select the "compatibility" tab
Check the box "run this program in compatibility mode for"
In the list below this box, select "Windows 7"
Click "Apply" then "Ok"
Now launch this boot camp setup (press "enter" or double-click)
Step 9 : Complete the BootCamp installation process, then restart (like step 7)
Don't forget to hold the Alt key after the bell sound
Step 10 : Enjoy your freshly installed windows 8.1!
You can acces your bootcamp parameters from the task bar (click on the tiny booycamp icon to open the quick menu and then click on the parameters/configurater). Here you can set your keyboard preference, your trackpad preference (multi-touch works), etc.
Following this procedure, I can use the built-in Apple-maped keyboard of my MBP. Every function keys works (Volume, luminosity, etc.)
Coming from Windows XPSP3, I was very surprised by the speed of the windows 8.1 installation (using an external USB super drive), and more surprised by this OS running flawlessly on my undying MBP!
The only issue I have is that my ethernet port isn't recognized, but it's a minor problem and i'm gonna found it quickly. I think it's due to my installation which wasn't perfectly clean (I try to run manually bootcamp 5.0.1 first, so there is some crap drivers somewhere).
So in order to confirm this procedure, i'm gonna re-install windows 8.1 from scratch very soon, because it take less time to do it (from step 1 to step 10) than write this article!

And I used this method:
1. Install Windows 8.1
2. Download BootCamp 5 and unzip to folder BootCamp5 of a USB drive
3. Start CMD as Administrator
4. Install BootCamp 5 by entering the following commands
D: (Assuming the USB drive is assigned to letter D
CD BootCamp5\BootCamp\Drivers\Apple
BootCamp.msi
No need for InstEd might be considered by some as even more elegant as bezodziu's method

Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit upgrade to Windows 8 Pro RTM 64bit hangs

I am trying to upgrade Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on a Dell Alienware Aurora R3 desktop PC via DVD to Windows 8 Pro 64bit (RTM) and it freezes on the Windows Splash Screen after the installation and then after the restart. It looks like it has put the PC into
standby mode with the Windows logo frozen on one screen, however I cannot get PC out of 'sleep or hibernate mode' which is what it looks like it's done (flashing yellow Alienware logo).
When it happened the first time I had to manually shut it down and then restart it as the Win8 installation just stalled. After restart it said Windows 8 installation has failed and it successfully rolled back to my instance of Windows 7. I've
tried it again and it's done the same thing.
This is very frustrating as I did a clean install of Windows 8 Pro 64bit (RTM) on my Sony Vaio VGN-Z46GD laptop with no problems.
I have an Alienware Aurora R3 (only 8 months old):
Intel Core i7-2600K
8GB RAM
1.5GB Nvidia GeoForce GTX580

Just thought the Win 8 upgrade would be easy so long after launch but I am getting all of the above! I have done the following:-
Disable options: XD-Bit Capability, Intel SpeedStep Technology and Intel
C-state Tech.
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/KCS/KcsArticles/ArticleView?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&docid=586909
Override the current Intel chipset, it appears to be the issue, and run this older one (Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility, v.9.2.0.1015, A00) for now:
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/alienware-aurora-r3?driverId=R284186&osCode=W764&fileId=2731115303
also install this: Renesas Integrated USB 3.0, v.2.0.4.0, A00
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/alienware-aurora-r3?driverId=R286402&osCode=W764&fileId=2731116122
Still it won't reboot/come out of sleep - is there no answer from Dell/Microsoft to get this working?

Unable to open connection to MS Access 2013 .accdb file Under WCF Web Service Project Using Windows 8.1 64bit

I am encountering the following error when trying to connect to an Access 2013 database:
The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine.
I have Visual Studio 2013 SP3 running on Windows 8.1 64bit OS which also has Office 2013 installed (which includes MS Access 2013). My project is a WCF web service using .NET Framework 4.5.1 using any cpu as target. I have tried reluctantly
to install the older drivers as described by in the below article:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1d5c04c7-157f-4955-a14b-41d912d50a64/how-to-fix-error-the-microsoftaceoledb120-provider-is-not-registered-on-the-local-machine?forum=vstsdb
and also went through the "Add Data Source" wizard in the Project menu to have the connect string automatically built. Even with the automatically built connect string I can not connect to the .accdb file from within my WCF web service.
What's odd is if I use the Database Explorer in Visual Studio it has no problem connecting the my Access file. I inspected the connect string and tried to use it as well but still get the same error. Even stranger is that I have no problem connecting
to the Access DB in an ASP.NET project on the same PC. I am also able to connect to the Access file using a simple Windows Forms application. So I'm wondering if it has something to do with trying to connect to the Access file from a WCF web service
project.
What I'd like to know is if anyone has been able to get this to work in an environment as I described above as a 64bit WCF web service project? I tried to switch my project to 32bit but when I do I get a different error which reads:
System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:
Almost to the point of trying to get this web service project done with SQL Express but would like to know if it can be done with MS Access 2013. Any information anyone can provide to help me get past this issue is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Have you installed the 64-bit Access driver on your machine? See
Data Source Names and 64-Bit Operating Systems for the differences in odbcad32. Call %SystemRoot%\system32\odbcad32.exe to check the drivers.
How do you host your service? Stand-alone or IIS or embedded to another application? Keep in mind that IIS7 runs it in its application pool which is defaullt 64bit. Thus the bad image exception, when compiling your service as 32bit.
When you need the Access database for your service to store informtation, then I would switch to SQL Server (Express) or XML files depending on your actual needs.
Also check whether your account under which your service is run has the necessary NTFS file permissions on the access file and the folder. This is getting even more complex when it's a remote folder.

HP Officejet 4500 All-in-One Printer - G510g installation windows 8.1 64bit

After operating a HP Officejet 4500 All-in-One Printer - G510g from both an old Windows XP notebook and from an ASUS Windows 8, 64bit laptop, subsequently updated to 8.1; I'm now trying to install it to run from a Toshiba Satellite NB10T-A notebook Windows 8.1 64bit, but without success.
The original installation CD does not provide an installation but on start up (presumably because it is only compatible with Windows XP and 7.
The www.hp.com site offers a download of a full driver for the printer, forWindows 8.162bit. This seems to download fine. The file unpacks, says it is installing, but on completion the driver is not available.
There are no options to uninstall, either in control panel/printers or in control panel/software.
Without the driver, the Windows 8.1 system recognises the printer and allows simple printing ffrom applications. However, it is not possible to use the scan options, giving the error message that the driver is not available. Neither HP Solution Center or HP Document Manager are installed.
I have tried HP Print and Scan Doctor. This recognises the printer on USB link, says that there are missing drivers, downloads, unpacks and installs drivers. But the printer icon in control panel/printers continues to have an alarm icon and indicates that the printer is still missing drivers.
I have also tried the HP Printer Installation Wizard. The result is similar.
Please advise how I can install the scan options of this equipment and confirm that the machine is compatible with windows 8.1 64bit.
Thank you
This question was solved.

Hello @monc , welcome to the HP forums!
I read through your post about how you cannot scan on your Windows 8.1 computer as the driver and software doesn't seem to be completing successfully on your system. However, you have been able to install the printer and its functioning fine on other computers.
I would suggest checking the Control Panel to see if there are any printer files to uninstall: Uninstalling the Printer Software
Restart the PC afterwards
Perform a Clean Boot
Restart the PC again
Download and install the printer again: HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver
If you see any error messages or codes during the installation process, make note of the exact problem or error and post me back a screen shot or the details.
Good luck

Windows Services not starting in OOBE after Sysprep - Windows 7 Professional 64bit

So, I'm attempting to create an image to deploy to our Lenovo Thinkpad T540p's using Windows 7 Proffesional 64bit. At this point I'm simply setting up the image and running Sysprep /oobe/ generalize and then trying to boot into windows to make sure it works
before we store and deploy it.
When I do, I'm getting an error message that the services failed to start and restart the PC. I started the process listed here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/658528ce-6eb5-403b-ae41-458147c2c044/sysprep-failling-after-reboot-into-oobe
But my issue seems to be a bit more complicated than that, as the issues for me seem to be coming from the registry key [\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\ROOT\LEGACY_KL1] as being the one that: <Data Name="Message">(c0000022):
Failed to process reg key or one of its descendan
I've tried starting from the Lenovo image, or our previos image but cannot avoid this error. Any ideas? Here is the logfile in full:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RlStS8OyNTsL7Y_VO2HniDz0FI0jUi-ZGnUCVlowVvs/edit#gid=192385465

It's an image that was created by the previous tech. He appears to have modified the lenovo image (it has a bunch of lenovo bloatware still on it) and then run sysprep on it. His image works, but if I make any changes to it, it seems to break.
Yeah, I wish I could get a hold of him and ask, but that's not really an option ><
Edit: Interestingly enough I ran sysprep just from the image and it did the same thing...I'm not really sure what the last guy must've done to set this up

WIndows 8.1 64bit, Windows Installers stalls with any install, updates or third party programs. Third party program installations work if I restart in safe mode. Updates don't as they cannot be installed in safe mode and require normal mode.
Been happening for months now. Some installations after a long time finally proceed, others dont.

Unable to install windows 8 Pro (64bit) on R61, 7755jm1

I have an old thinkpad, the R61 series, model 7755JM1.
And I tried to install windows 8 pro (64bit) on it, hoping to have a taste of the new OS's touch features through remote control on my tablet.
However, the installation has never been successful.
I was able to finish the installation process. Yet whenever it starts to "setup my device", it was never able to finish, and it usually stopped at 65% or 84%.
then my thinkpad would restart on its own, and threw an error message telling me my computer is restarted unexpectedly and the installation is not succeful, also suggesting me try to install again.
This is very frustrating. I have checked on intel's website and other online sites that my CPU (core 2 dual process T8100) supports intel64, and execute disable bit (in my BIOS I think it is by name of "execution prevention"), and sse2, sse3.
In my BIOS, I enabled execution prevention, set SATA mode to "AHCI", and enabled "extended memory test". I format the partition every time I tried to install.
I have installed windows 7 pro on my thinkpad before, and it was just fine.
Do anybody have any idea what is going and how should I solve this?
Many thanks.
Lee.

Hello,
According to the Lenovo, the specs for your R61 (MT: 7755-JM1) as it shipped are as follows:
T8100(2.1GHz), 1GB RAM, 160GB 5400rpm HD, 14.1in 1400x900 , 128MB nVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M, CDRW/DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn wireless, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ether, UltraNav, Sec Chip, FPR, Camera, 4c Li-Ion, WinVista Home Basic 32.
As you pointed out, the T8100 is a 64-bit CPU, so there should be no problems with that. I did notice that the unit originally shipped with 1GB of RAM, though.
From looking at Microsoft's Windows 8 System Requirements page, I see that 2GB of RAM are required for the 64-bit edition of Microsoft Windows 8, so if your R61 only has the original 1GB of RAM in it, it will need to be upgraded..
The R61 officially supports 4GB of RAM in the form of two 1GB PC2-6400 800MHz DDR SO-DIMM modules, and apparently can unofficially be upgraded to 8GB using two 4GB modules with the same characteristics.
If you already have 2GB (or more) of RAM installed, the other suggestion off the top of my head is to make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS firmware installed:
Name: BIOS Update Bootable CD for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit), XP, 2000 - ThinkPad R61, R61i 14.1 inch widescreen with IEEE 1394, ThinkPad T61, T61p
URL: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS013943
Version: 2.30-1.08
Released: 02 Apr 2012
If the issue still occurs, please let us know and we can try and help you troubleshoot it further.

Speedgrade CC 2014.2 build 8.2x51 unsmooth/choppy 4K playback with GPU R9 295x2 - it uses only 2 GB of RAM (Windows 8.1 64Bit), Mac OS - same problem

Hello, guys
I have following configuration:
i7-5960x @ 4.3 GHz
32 GB DDR4 RAM
ATI 295x2 8GB (Gpusniffer.exe shows 3072 MB on each Hawaii unit)
M.2 Ultra Samsung XP941 (>1000Mb/sec)
Few 850 Pro SSD for H.264 4k source
Latest Speedgrade CC build at 16/02/2015 (DUAL MONITOR SETUP - 2560x1440 for Interface and 4096x2160 for Preview)
I work with a lot of short 10-15 seconds 4K 4096x2160 24FPS H.264 clips from Panasonic GH4. Import them to Premiere CC as is, some warp stabilization, cut them, save project and open in Speedgrade CC. Everything is fantastic smooth in Premiere CC.
In Speedgrade - some simple color correction - Exposition, some keyframes and the most simple grading for some material. I use GPU acceleration for sure to have full 4096x2160 4K 24FPS. But it is not responsive and smooth after some correction is applied. Everything is choppy and freezes first seconds, when I press "PLAY". I used Resources monitor, Task manager (Winodws 8.1 64-bit) and Afterburner. And there is what I found out:
Afterburner shows utilization of single GPU (as we know for playback only 1 GPU used) the same amount like in Premiere. Speedgrade CC uses 2,5GB VRAM. By the way, if I use some none-gpu-accelerated effect, like "transform", for example, imported from Premiere, I will get "Not enough GPU resources" message in Speedgrade. Afterburner shows, that Speedgrade CC tried to utilize more, then max. available VRAM 3GB during this moment. So I switch off such effects, before open project in Speedgrade.
Processor is also low on utilization (15%), maybe even a little lower, then in Premiere CC
Disk - 3-10%, H.264 is low on it
RAM !!! - is the problem. I allowed to use 29 GB of RAM to Adobe apps. Speedgrade CC uses not more, then 2-3 GB according to Taskmanager (mostly 2GB) and Resources Monitor of Windows 8.1 64Bit Pro. After I finished with color correction, opened project in Premiere CC, everything works smooth with lumteri on and! Premiere CC uses 9-10 GB of RAM to play the same clip at full resolution smoothly!!!
I already reinstalled everything, including drivers for GPU, Windows 8.1 and Adobe CC. Same result.
Macbook Pro Retina 15 late 2013 with i7-4960HQ/16gb RAM/Geforce 750m UPDATE!
Under Mac Os Yosemite 10.10.2 - same situation here. Premiere CC uses 5GB (of 11GB available) for 4096x2160 Prores 422 HQ and is usable, smooth with some frame drops.
Speedgrade CC uses 2,5 GB of RAM for 4096x2160 and it is impossible to use full 4096x2160. Only 1/2 Resolution for preview is smooth and usable at notebook display. At external 4096x2160 monitor connected through Thunderbolt it is much more choppy, I think it is hard for 750m with 2 GB of VRAM.
UPDATE! Previous version (CC 2014) of Premiere CC and Speedgrade CC under Windows 8.1 64-bit - same situation.
What do you think?
My opinion - Speedgrade CC is not optimized for 4K resolutions. Premiere CC is good for 4K.
btw, for information, latest AMD catalyst omega driver 14.12 has a problem with my R9 295x2 and Mercury Playback Engine (MPE) OpenCL - just the black screen with sound, when I turn on GPU acceleration. So I use previous 14.9 version. With 14.12 GPUsniffer.exe found one GPU device with 4Gb of VRAM and one GPU with 3GB of VRAM (normally must be 3GB+3GB for 295x2 Dual GPU-chip radeon).

So, I got MSI 290x 8GB tested and... found out that I can't use 8GB of VRAM, because there are some AMD driver limitations!!!
1. I switched off my 295x2 8Gb (4GB+4GB) to be sure, it will not affect VRAM amount.
2. I launched Gpusniffer utility with 14.9 AMD driver and 3072 Mb VRAM was available ONLY! It worked like 295x2 with 3072 + 3072 Mb VRAM.
3. I installed 14.12 AMD Omega driver and GPUsniffer informed that I have now 8192 Mb!!! But! Mercury Playback Engine did not work with Premiere Pro CC or Speedgrade CC as with my 295x2. Just black screen.
RGB and Luma at 0 and preview is black with 14.12 AMD driver. Premiere PRO - the same situation.
With 14.9 AMD Driver. Left 2560*1440 Dell working area monitor and 4096*2160 preview LG monitor right side.
With 14.9 Gpusniffer shows 3 and 3 and 3GB Vram instead of 4GB and 4GB and 8Gb. As I understood with CrossfireX switched off - Adobe products and their GPUsniffer utility could "find" and use 8GB on primary GPU, but again we can see AMD driver issues.
Single 290x 8GB with 14.9 AMD driver also displays only 3072 Mb available in Gpusniffer.
NEATVIDEO informed on their website in Bugs section about 14.12 driver problem with MPE. They also wrote about problem to AMD, so I did. I think, this is really bad story. So, AMD, we are awaiting for normal drivers.

Windows 8.1 64bit. Webcam works with "Camera" app ...

I've spent a few hours googling and trying out various things - all listed below. I give up - any ideas???
OS: Windows 8.1 64bit
Memory: 32GB
WebCam: Microsoft VX-7000.
As per subject - the webcam works with the "Camera" app but not with Skype for desktop or for Modern UI (or the Microsoft Lifecam software for that matter).
Already attempted:
1) Uninstall webcam drivers - download latest from microsoft (Windows 7) and install in Windows 7 compatibility mode.
2) Close (from taskmgr) anything that looks like it might use Webcam.
3) Run Skype for Desktop in Windows 7 and 8 compatibility modes
None of the above work. In Skype for Modern UI the webcam doesn't appear in the drop down in Settings - so I can't even select it. In Skype for desktops (version 6.11.32.102) the webcam is found but instead of image I get "Can't start video. Try closing other programs that might be using your webcam".
I see from a bit of googling that various people seem to have the same issue (i.e. Webcam works with Camera app but not Skype) - so I'm hopeful someone has found a workaround / fix to this issue and I've just not had the googling skills to find it
Thanks,
- Matt Symes

I have 6 USB3.0/2.0 ports on the rear panel of the motherboard and the camera is connected to one of these.
I also have 2 USB 2.0/1.1 ports on the front panel of the PC connected to the motherboard (it's an old PC case!) I've tried using these with the webcam and there is no difference (i.e. works in "Camera" app - not in Skype)
TI've generated and attached the log file as requested.
Thanks for your assistance in this issue.

Windows 8.1 - Brightness control issues!!

Microsoft - Nowhere in all the communications you've posted here have you even remotely taken responsibility for this bug! The first time we go to adjust the screen brightness after updating to 8.1 - the screen goes down to it's minimum brightness setting
and will not adjust, no matter how we try to adjust it. My P500 Lenovo had the same issue. I talked with Lenovo support and they knew the driver that was included in your 8.1 update was the problem. We tried installing an 8.0 driver & a driver
from the Intel site to no avail. Lenovo support finally installed a basic Microsoft driver which solved the issue! My question - at this point - is, if it's obviously a problem related to the 8.1 update - when can we expect a fix? When 8.2 comes up - do we
dare assume that the driver in it will be solving the problem - or will it reintroduce it? As customers who purchase your product - we expect better
communication regarding issues that crop up. We don't expect perfection - just
integrity!

I shall suggest you to uninstall and reinstall graphic driver.
Intel has already come out with graphic driver designed for Windows 8.1 32bit and Windows 8.1 64bit.It is available in Lenovo's website and it is applicable for P500.There is absolutely no need to install the graphic card driver made for windows 8
when the driver for windows 8.1 is available in manufacturer's site.

Install Netweaver 7.1, service pack 3 on Windows 2008 Server 64bit

Hi All,
Good Morning. I am working as Oracle APPS DBA. I had a requirement for installing Netweaver 7.1, service pack 3 on Windows 2008 Server 64bit machine.
I need this Application server for Vertex O-Series which is working with SQL Server as the database.
Can any of you guys help me in providing the document or steps in order to install this application server?
1. Pre-Requisties steps
2. Installation
3. Post steps
I apperciat your help in this.
Thanks,
Srinivas.

Hello.
We are at the same point too.
Anybody here install the Vertex O series 6 running on the Java Stack? if so, what NW release and what component?
We are currently running an older version on SAP NW640 JAVA with no issue, and I am making the assumption the new Vertex would be running on the same SAP java AS for 7*... maybe not?
The install documents from Vertex say the requirement for SAP is:
"SAP NetWeaver 7.1 with Service Pack 3 or higher" and I see that there is only 7.1 for PI and Mobile.
(Maybe they mean SAP NW 7 SP3?)
We did ask Vertex, the company, about running this on the java app and they wrote:
"Netweaver 7.1 is currently supported for deployment of O Series 6.0. Versions 7.0 and 7.3 of Netweaver are not supported.
O Series 6.0 is supported for use with Java 1.5 and Java 1.6. "
Thanks for your help. And I will post here again if I find my answer.
