Install Intel wifi drivers and utilites. These are self-installing zip files.

That's where I got the drivers from. The wi-fi is the one not a win32 app and the video is encrypted.

Okay ... the video driver is installed but in device manager it says its still calling the screen a standard VGA and the resoluton still goes no higher than 1024x768. I did reboot. Waiting on the network driver ... again. Maybe the first time I downloaded it was bad.

I are listenin' to the duck. I'm halfway home. Screen resolution is normal now. Now its the etwork adapters turn to be a pain. Double click and the extraction runs but the setup itself doesn't. I'm still waiting for it.

I did get the video driver for it. Extracted the archive and clicked on the setup.exe. Its encrypted.


Ok...this is how it works. I ask question, you answer question.

Short of that, stop 'doing things'!

Okay ..... no more doin' stuff. Set up on both the network driver and the wifi utility does not run. The first dl with the video didn't run either. I dl'd that one a second time and it worked. The network driver I dl'd a second time and got the same result. No set up. What am I doing wrong?

Disable the 'Service Station'. Do not install Proset even on the off chance it lets you.

Failing that, do it the old fashion way (there's no logical reason Win7 is seeing this);

right click/ Properties/ Driver/ Update Driver/ Browse my computer for driver/ Let me pick from list......

Find your adapter.

 

Can I assume there is no Toshiba Disk, just the Recovery partition?

Downloading both now. There is no Toshiba disk, just the Recovery partition.

Lan indicator installed. Stll the same thing with the network adapter. Why does it do that. Also ... I had gone to the Toshiba site and looked up the specs for my laptop. It listed the network driver as 802.11b/g/n. That's listed under realtek not intel.

if i good understand , there is problem with the wireless connection but he can use internet via cable ( network connection )...

Both setup teamviewer and take control remotely of his computer, making the job yourself... problem will be solved in les that a 1/2 hours ( unless there is other sh!t problem around but you will be able to see it )...

At least, setup some chat room where you can start a real interactive communication who will greatly improve the process...

I may be wrong Uvah, but if you did a complete reinstall the OS from the recovery partition everything should just work. Did you install the OS from the recovery partition, or a Windows DVD?  If you did it from the DVD, you are going to have problems, you should restart and do a complete OS reinstall from the recovery partition.

Windows DVD. Win 7 Pro. The old one was Home Premium. If this OS in already installed wouldn't the recovery partition change all that. More imporantly, would it work because the OS is not the same. Besides I don't know how to do that.

I am pretty sure on a Toshiba there is a certain key to hit during boot to go into the recovery partition. Not sure what it is though on yours. I think my old Toshiba had it at the bottom of the screen during boot at one point saying "Hit ?? to enter Recovery Partition".

Once you install from there you should be fine. As far as running Home or Pro, unless there is really something you absolutely need to have in Pro, Home should be fine for everything you want to do.

If you did it from the DVD, you are going to have problems

There's no reason he can't do that.

True in most cases yrag, but he would be better off restoring from the recovery partition, and then if he really wants it he can upgrade to Windows 7 Professional using the DVD. That way any unique Toshiba stuff, drivers etc., should not be an issue.
