I imported photos (JPEG) into iPhoto and deleted the original folder (backup is on an external drive).
Where is that 'folder' now, if iPhoto has control of it? Can I access that folder instead of going through iPhoto?
I have trouble, conceptually, of how to edit photos on Photoshop Elements 6 with the accompanying browser.
I can not find the wireless driver software for the model hp 15-r006tu
View 8 Replies View RelatedI got my laptop back from repair and the papers that came with it said that they not only replaced the LCD screen, but also updated the BIOS to the lates version--1.24
I was messing around with my laptop and the various thermal monitoring programs it has while searching the net why the hell my by-core temps always gets stuck at startup. I kept reading on BIOS, BIOS, BIOS. So I went to acer.com.sg for hopes that a newer 1.25 or so BIOS would be available for my Ciel Noir.
Surprise surprise, they have only the 1.16 (came with my laptop when it was new) and the 1.23 BIOS (mine was presently 1.24, and they don't have it). I downloaded it anyway, and checked the readme. I noticed that the flash utility .exe was named JALA0123.exe and then I noticed through HWMonitor 1.14 that my motherboard was marked JALA0 so hmm...this prompted me to flash the BIOS.
Booted up, got into Windows, fired up HWMonitor and what do you know, now it's working!! HWMonitor reads a different TJMax though, so I adjusted it to be the same as CoreTemp's and Everest, and now it's showing (I hope) correct temps.
Now my question is this: Why does the BIOS that comes from Acer directly i.e. after purchase or repair makes the sensors not work? And why are these BIOSes not available online? Is it possible that they use BIOSes that are for different laptop models, hence rendering the addresses for the thermal monitors different from the actual ones? (I read up that thermal sensors depended on the correct addresses, too.)

Let say your Vaio Z is using Bios R4040M3 and you move to Bios R4041M3 to use the official VT support. Later on, you want to move back to R4040M3 to use the Advance Menu hack. Unfortunately, you cannot move back as Sony never publish the R4040M3 Bios update. This is my current situation.
I decided to investigate a way to back up the current Bios. Using a program called Universal extractor, I managed to extracted the files in the original Bios update. The bios update uses a program called Insydeflash to flash the Bios. The Insydeflash uses a file called platform.ini to control its setting.
In the platform.ini file, there is a section called [FDFile]. The section [FDFile] has a parameter called BackupName. If we put in a file name here, the Insydeflash should save your current Bios into that file. Unfortunately, I cannot make it work with the Sony supplied Insydeflash. (version 3.38).
I managed to get the newer version of Insydeflash (version 3.72). The newer version has a new ini section called [BackupROM], as the following:
..........
[BackupROM]
Flag=0
FilePath=c:
FileName=....................
There are a lot of BIOS MOD request forums out there but most of them only specialize in SLIC modification. Our job is to unlock hidden menu in the BIOS. We don't want to use "specialize" word here but we know the "how" to get the job done. Based on the old thread Acer Laptop with Phoenix BIOS: Enable Virtualization, we decided to open new thread which specifically deals with BIOS MOD requests.
Other BIOS modder (bob12x, Darkening & others) and I will help you to unlock hidden menu(s) such as Intel Virtualization Menu and Intel Speedstep Technology.............
I've run into an issue that has stricken every single laptop, regardless of OS, that I've ran that has an intel 4965N WiFi card. Dell Latitudes, Inspirons, Acers, HPs, Lenovos, Toshibas, Gateway, Sony, XP, Vista, Server 2008, Windows 7, 32 bit, 64 bit.
Transfers of large files to my NAS, such as DVD ISOs, system images, or VMware images, will result in a failed transfer 100% of the time.
The issue does not occur with Broadcom or Atheros cards, or intel cards such as the the 2915ABG, 2200BG, 5100N, 5300N, 5350N. Just the 4965N.
I have an intel 5100N card I bought for a friend to use in a laptop, but he opted to use a Broadcom card that was supported in OSX. I'd like to use it in the HP to fix this issue, but unfortunately, HP's current whitelisting of WiFi cards prevents me from doing so. find a BIOS that will let me use my 5100N?
I've got a T7500 that I want to drop in my Aspire 4315. The Chip replacement is simple enough, but Acer unwilling to advise me what Bios I will need to upgrade to, even though they offer bios upgrades on their website.

I didn't install as I had already enabled VT using the EFI tweak. In addition, I am not sure whether I can turn on the Advanced Menu again after installing this Bios.
a download link for this bios? Every site I have visited linked to HP's download site, which then opens up an empty ftp page. A mirror would be appreciated. The file's name is supposed to be "sp34782.exe".

New BIOS update for DV2 on driver page.
"Enhancements:Updates the Computrace OPROM to support the next generation of Microsoft Windows Operating Systems."
What does that mean? I'm already running Win7 on my DV2. Should I update my system with this new BIOS. Will make any difference?
I've just visited the HP drivers website for my Pavillion dv2745se laptop, and strangely enough I saw a new BIOS that came out last month! I thought I signed up for the HP "new-driver" mailing list, but I didn't get any email.
I currently have the F.24 version but the new one is F.27 (sp42186.exe). The enhancements are: "Resolves an issue where the data transfer rate is low for some memory cards.". I'm not sure what that means, but is it talking about the RAM, or a flash drive or something?
So is this new release safe to try? Might there be any other updates than just the data transfer rate fix?
Also on the HP website it said it was released "2008-12-22", but when I run the WinPhlash installer it says "New BIOS F.27, 11/27/2008".
I have a cliehnt with an HP 250 G1 Laptop.The Hard Drive has died, it is making a few repatative beeping noises then failing. The Laptop became unresponsive a few times while she was using it, similar to caching error, then bluescreened and failed to work again. Boot Message is along the lines of Insert Boot Media / Hard Drive not found. BIOS does not show an HDD at all.
The laptop was purchased on the 5th of Jan 2014 but the online warranty check states that the warranty has expired. How do I get this laptop back to HP for repair as the website seems not to offer this as an option and there is no contact telephone number or email address.The lady who owns this Laptop, Elaine is using it for an Adult Learning Course in basic computer literacy.
This was released at the same time as A09 for 1645, why is nobody talking about it? Does it remove the 84 degree gpu limit like A09 does?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI recently had a new motherboard installed on my Dell Inspiron 8600 (by local repair guy - not Dell).
I'm doing a clean install of xp pro and downloading the drivers from the Dell website.
I entered my service code to get all the right drivers, but one of the downloads is System Bios A14 (optional). Should I download and install that or not?..
Is there anyway for a dell technician to see that I have the unlocked BIOS on my laptop?
And if there is how do I revert back to the original?
I changed motherboard (GPU fail), bought used one, which is from vostro 1400, so now I have inspiron 1420 with vostro 1400 BIOS..................

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat are the benefits of unlocking the xps 16 bios? Will you be able to overclock the processor and graphics card? Can that even be achieved even if you do unlock the bios?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI just stumbled onto this site and I've been reading posts for hours. I wish I would have found it sooner! I have a M1530, with 3gb ram running Win7 32bit.
So, from what I gather reading that the XPS M1530 will support either 6 or 8 gb of ram, but only with certain Bios versions?
And those would be either A11 or A13, both of which I can't find anywhere. It sounds like Dell removed these from their site so that we wouldn't have this capability.
If this is the only way this is possible, is there someone out there that has a copy of this file? Or is there another way? I currently have A12 installed.!
during update bios sudden shutting down laptop dell studio 17
and after then not working
what can i do?
Has anyone benched the temperatures with A12 on m1530 yet?
