X40: Can't get WLAN / "Ethernetcontroller" driver to work

Hi, I experince problems with the the wireless network driver. After formating the hard drive and installing XP with SP3 a lot of drivers were missing. Now I have the most of them installed after following the two step installation. But one is missing.
The wireless network still doesn't work and in the device manager it appears that an "Ethernet-controller" isn't working.
I have tried to install the wireless drivers for X40. Can anyone help me?

TLDane, welcome to the forum,
it would be helpful if you could post the Type and Model Number of your X40 as this will help members to help you. If it ends in CTO please provide some details about the ThinkPad. Please do NOT post your s/n.
Thanks

Can't get Zip or Jaz Drive to work with PB G4 OS 10.4.7

Hi All,
Please help if possible. I recently upgraded from a PB 3400/G3, "Kanga" to a PB G4. When I used my Kanga I saved tons of files and pictures to my Iomega SCSI 1G Jaz and 100M Zip drives. I would like to transfer all this stuff to my PB G4 but nothing I have tried works...
I:
- purchased a Iomega SCSI to USB converter for my JAZ. When it is hooked up to my PB G4, after what seems like 100 years (actually about 7 minutes) it shows up on the desktop. Then after another 7 minutes it opens. Then after another 7 minutes the folder I select opens. And so on and so on. I get scared that I'm screwing up the OS...and tired of waiting so I quit the whole thing.
- purchased a USB Iomega Zip which never shows up on the desktop, does not show up in the System Profiler, and does not show up in the Disk Utility. It doesn't matter if the disk is in the Zip before the computer is turned on or inserted later.
- read FAQs on the Iomega site and tried most of their suggestions (check that on/off switch is in the on position, power on, cables connected, etc.) including remove Iomega driver (or whatever it is) and reinstall.
The one thing I have not tried is to remove the Iomega files from the system manually and then reinstall the software. I am a long time user of a Mac, but OS 10 is a mystery to me and I'm deathly afraid of removing files I need. What are the Iomega files and where are they located? Do I remove them from OS 9 and OS 10 or just from OS 10?
Oh, I forgot...I read a lot of Apple discussion items talking about removing some Adaptec files but I think they were just for PowerMac users.
What this all boils down to is, does anyone know how I can get my Zip and Jaz drives to work on my PB G4's? As you can tell, I move forward very slowly and giving up my trusted Kanga is a big step for me I'd like to be able to move between my Kanga and G4s for a while longer.
Thanks to anyone who has the patience to read thru all this stuff and provide suggestions.
Powerbook G4, 15", 1.25GHz and PB G4, 12', 1.5 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.7)

USB and Firewire Zip and Jazz drives exist which work with Mac OS X a lot better than SCSI. I would suggest selling the old SCSI one to someone who can better use it, and get yourself more up to date drives:

Can't get a 250 gb drive to work as the only drive

Someone please help. I have had a 36 gb raptor working on this system just fine but want to switch to use a 250 gb SATA hard drive instead. I have tried everything i can think of:
K8N-FSR motherboard
bios are up to date 1.40v
tried copying disc to disc via Western Digital utilities
everytime i try to boot it up i get the error loading OS message.
Anyone? I really am out of ideas here.

stick with it mate - you will overcome...
if you want a quicker read than the FAQs on SATAs my story is on this thread and to cut a long story short - if you have any IDEs HD in there and don't want it to be primary you need to unplug during any format or repairs. Plus whilst a SATA will slave and operate as non-active partition fine without RAID even to get a single drive to be active needs RAID enabled and the MSI drivers loaded to windows.
Let us know how you ge on - also if you go into BIOS RAID setup have you made sure you switched drive to the right....
oh and ignore the remarks about pr0n - I have 440GB HD space in my rig!

I recently had the genius bar change my imac hard drive because it crashed. For some reason Time Machine didn't back up some of my important files. Can I get my damaged hard drive back from the genius bar to see if I can access that info?

Unfortunately, that drive is long gone, probably back to the mfr. Drives are not returned when they are exchanged. You can go by and ask them, but the chances are slim to none.

I have an iMac 21.5 inch purchased in 2011 with a failing 1TB Seagate hard drive. Can I get a replacement hard drive?

I have an iMac 21.5 inch purchased in 2011 with a failing 1TB Seagate hard drive. Can I get a replacement hard drive thru the Apple Replacement Program? I did purchase the Applecare Plan but it expired in Dec. 2013.

FWIW, if you purchased the iMac in 2011 and purchased Applecare, you are covered for a total of 3 years. You mentioned yours expired in December 2013 - that cannot be unless you bought yours in 2010. If you bought it in December 2011, you should still be covered until December 2014 - if so, contact Apple/make a Genius Bar appointment quickly so the replacement is covered by the warranty. The hard drive replacement program might have expired, but as long as you're covered by Applecare, a drive replacement is covered.

Here is a Do-it-yourself guide.
You also might consider maxing out your RAM since you plan on opening up the machine anyway. (Depends on which model you have, the older CoreDuo can use 2GB max, later Core2Duo models can use either 3GB or 4GB, depending on model.)
Other World Computing can help you find the parts that are compatible with your particular computer model, and they may offer a small rebate for your original RAM/drive.

You can also go to an Apple store, they won't sell you the part, but they will replace it for a fee.

I was out of town for a few days. I had no issue installing the driver on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). What specifically happens when you try to install?
If you get this message:
then you need to right-click on the installer package and select 'Open' when you get this message:

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. It came installed on my HP Desktop. I am can not get the warp text tool to work. It has worked in the past. Once I click warp text, the little window does not pop up, and if I try to do anything else after I click warp text, it wont let me. Just sounds the ding, alert, can still slightly navigate the program but can not use any other tools after clicking warp text. I just have to open task manager and close the program. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or maybe I just need to uninstall and re install. Having trouble finding out how to uninstall and reinstall because the program came pre installed on my desktop.

It actually sounds like the warp text window is opening off screen.
Resetting the photoshop elements 10 preferences should fix it.
*Press and hold the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after you start the launch of the photoshop elements 10 editor
*Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop elements setting file
*Press Yes

HT2845 can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS

I can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp,running Windows 7 Ultimate on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS........ It works perfectly on the Apple ,

Not sure if this will help anyone, but I had trouble installing on 10.8.
I then found this particular support page:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4142&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&s w_lang=&product=4231205#N228
Be patient with the download, it takes some time ... When it has downloaded, follow the install instructions. It works well.
I use the printer through usb but my wife uses wireless from her PC laptop.

I can't get my HP laserjet p1102w to work with airprint

Hi!
So it seem's that I can't get my HP laserjet p1102w to work with airprint. I got it to send out it's own Wi-Fi signal, and i get in touch with that signal on my iPad 3. But when I wan't to print something out from Pages, then it says that it can't find any airprinters.
I tried to update the firmware several times, but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions to what I can do?

Hey T-racer,
As a work-around you can also use the HP eprint method which is available with your printer. The application (HP Home & Biz) is available for free in the apple catalogue.
You can find more info on it here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03128518&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &product=4110396&tmp_track_link=ot_search
It shares many of the same capabilities of airprint but is a different program/feature.
If you have any questions, just ask!
