Upgrade On A Samsung RV515?

Nov 11, 2012

So, I've had this laptop, a Samsung RV515, for awhile now, and I felt it was time to upgrade it. I would just buy a better computer, but being only 14, I don't have to much money to spend. I was originally planning to upgrade my RAM from 4GB to 8GB, but I'm not sure that is the best route to go. the kind of things I want to know is if I can or can't upgrade or replace my processor, graphics card, etc. I don't know a whole lot about computers, so any input would be great. Also, it may be helpful to note that I haven't done anything to tweak and/or upgrade the laptop yet.

Windows 7 On Samsung RV515 Formatted

Aug 7, 2012

I recently bought a Samsung RV515 with Win 7 installed. I have been using Win Xp for years. Could not get the hang of Win 7 so I formatted the 500gb hard drive and installed Win Xp. I will not go through the problems this caused. Suffice to say I have since used my Recovery Disk to reinstall Win 7. Don't slap my wrist too hard for being a idiot. Now I cannot get on the Internet because the drivers and protocol are missing.I do not know what Internet Card this Laptop has installed or what drivers are required.

Upgrade On Samsung R519

Dec 1, 2009

Was running windows vista home premium on my samsung r519, pentium dual core 2ghz, 4gb ram, 500gb HD - Everything was great.

Then Samsung informed me that I could upgrade to windows 7 for �17 as I had recently bought this laptop with Vista.

So I bought it, installed it and now I regret it. Why? Well..

1 - I had to download all software again which took ages and I haven't done it all yet. 7 gave me a summary of what I needed to re-install by telling me what was removed since the upgrade but it had to restart and I can't find the list again, is it available anywhere?

2 - text now looks slightly blurry/not as sharp as before even though I've updated all display drivers (to my knowledge) This is across web browsers, OS windows/menus etc

3 - the caps lock alert no longer pops up so I have no way of knowing when the caps are on until I type (very annoying)

4 - apparently, only 2.93gb of my 4gb of ram is now usable is this due to the fact I have the 32 bit version of 7? Will I notice a huge difference in performance now?

I'm just wondering if any of you good people know how I can fix any of the above? I guess with point 4 I'll just have to look into upgrading to 64 bit but is this easy/cheap?

Upgrade Path Problem - Win 7 RC To Vista To Win7 Upgrade

Nov 13, 2009

I installed Win 7 RC on a new build and purchased Vista Home Premium 64bit OEM with upgrade to Win 7 Home premium. The Win 7 upgrade disc has arrived. I understand that Vista must be installed and activated for the upgrade to work. Attempts to install Vista with Win 7 RC running or booting from the Vista disc lead to error code 0x80070103, insufficient free space. My HDD has > 450 Gb free space in 2 partitions. Do I need to reformat the HDD in order to install Vista over Win 7?

Continue The Upgrade / Merging Upgrade Process

Nov 30, 2009

Customer dropped off a laptop telling me that his Windows upgrade had failed.

It's a new HP DV6 that had Vista pre-installed on it.

I've taken a look at it, and there's a "Windows.old" folder on the root of C:, which is of course a back up of all his data.

There's also a batch file inside the folder with the following inside of it:

"REM Dummy file for NTVDM"

I'm wondering if there's a way to "continue" the upgrade / merging process? He has asked me to re-install all of his software the way he had it. So i'm hoping there's an easier way to continue where he left off.

I know Windows 7 creates a "Windows.old" folder when upgrading from XP. Not sure why one was created for a Vista to Windows 7 upgrade though.

Revoting Previous Upgrade To Upgrade To Windows 7?

Dec 24, 2012

I have a pc with Windows XP pro 32bit retail version. First I have made an image, just in case. Then I have upgraded it to windows 8, 64bit by using the retail upgrade DVD and clean install. However, I found out that my motherboard is so old (5 years old) that there are no drivers for win8 and after asking ASUS they said that the motherboard is not supported any more and that there will be no new drivers for it. I tried using win7 drivers but it did not work and without correct drivers a lot of things does not work (in particularly hdmi port).What I want to do now is to revert to my image (windows xp), buy a Windows 7, 64bit upgrade retail DVD and upgrade windows xp to windows 7 for which there are drivers for my motherboard.

1) Can I use windows xp retail (whose product key has already been used to upgrade to win8) image to upgrade to windows 7 retail? will the activation of windows 7 succeed? I want to use clean install again since i upgrade from 32bit to 64bit

2) If the answer to question 1 is a yes, how does microsoft prevent users from using the same windows image file to upgrade different pc's? I mean, theoretically, I can make an image of pc1, copy it to a hard drive of pc2 (even if it will result in erroneous installation due to different specs) and upgrade both systems by using two VUP product keys which are cheaper than one VUP + one retail product keys

3) Can I use windows 8 upgrade DVD which is not used any more to upgrade another PC?

Upgrade Key - Use The Upgrade Anytime Through Windows

Feb 27, 2010

I purchased Windows 7 Professional through the Ultimate Steal.

Downloaded it, put it on a disk also.

It will go through the start of the setup and copy files etc, and then it will give an error and say to install from a current version of windows I need to use the upgrade anytim through windows.

But when I go to upgrade anytime it asks for an upgrade key, but all I have with the purchase was a product key and it says that I can't use the product key.

any help?

edit: also i have windows 7 home premium installed right now

and here is exactly what it says:

"To upgrade from one edition of Windows 7 to another edition of Windows 7, use Windows Anytime Upgrade. Cancel the upgrade, open the Start menu, and search for Windows Anytime Upgrade. "

Samsung R60 Drivers

Nov 15, 2009

I was wondering if Samsung have released drivers for the R60 laptop that are fully functional in Windows 7, when I installed Windows 7 I had to search for all of the drivers myself, I was given a disk with the laptop but it only works in Vista. When running a benchmark test, the graphics were much better in Vista because I dont think I can find the right driver for the graphics card in Windows 7.

Also, a lot of the Fn buttons dont work anymore, for example changing the brightness, turning off the display, showing the battery level on screen, etc. I assume this is done through the chipset driver which I never had to install or even looked for.

Also, one last thing, with my graphics card on Vista I get a little ATI icon in the notification area, along with the Catalyst Control Centre, although I never get this in Windows 7.

ATI Cards And Samsung LCD

May 5, 2009

i just installed the latest build of Windows 7 (build 7100). and there are a few problems with my graphics options. There are 2 systems that i tried this on and both are having the same problem. The first setup has a Ati Radeon X1650 by MSI, and the drivers install, signed by WDDM. Now the monitor/tv that i am using is a 42inch LCD TV, and has the 1920x1080 resolution, that is its native resolution. Windows 7, supports the resolution and has it as the recommended resolution, however, when i select it, my monitor says "mode not supported" this is the same problem i have with the HD2600XT card from ATI.

Both of these cards work in Vista Ultimate, Vista Home Premium, Vista Business, and XP Pro SP3 and XP Home SP3, and even tried Server 2008 and server 2003. all of those OS's work with the native resolution on the monitor except the Windows 7 builds. anyone have an idea why this would be??

also, for the HD2600XT i did install the latest ati driver 9-4, and nothing is fixed. right now i am running it at 1280x768, but its skewed.

if anyone has any info on this it would be great, as i have tried everything.

i have also tried installing the 9-3 drivers on both cards, manually and using the installs. the manual way was to unzip the driver package and in device manager install the drivers myself.

The one system i have plugged into it now is a Shuttle Barebone SG31G2B, 4 GB of ddr2/800 ram, quad core q6600 2.4ghz, and the hd 2600xt.

Using Samsung Led Tv As A Pc Display?

Feb 9, 2012

Set up:

OS: Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit
Graphics card: Radeon HD 5450
This graphics card is connected with a samsung syncmaster 2253bw (Main monitor) and a samsung LED TV ue40b6000vpxxn (HDMI to HDMI).
Screen Resolution Syncmaster: 1680x1050
Screen Resolution LED TV: 1920x1080p

Problem Description:

I've connected my graphics card with the hdmi 1 port of the led tv. The tv only shows a crispy image of the first few boot screens whenever i turn my desktop on. The tv shows the error "Mode Not Supported" once it gets to the account login screen. According to the tv manufacturer's manual, the screen resolution and refresh rate of both screens should match in order to get it working.

Actions taken:

I've tried out all possible screen resolution combinations at the control panel of the pc. None of them gets my tv to show what's on my main monitor screen.

Question:

Are there any other steps I can do in order to use my tv as a pc display?

Samsung LCD TV Display

Nov 22, 2012

Currently having resolution issues with my 26" Samsung LCD TV (Model #LN26B360C5D) when used with an older Dell Dimension 3100 PC with Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1.After a re-install of Windows 7 done by a colleague, for some reason my TV won't display it's native resolution of 1366x768 which I'm almost 100 percent sure it had before because I didn't notice any distortion or quality loss. I checked the drivers of both the monitor and the adapter and they read as follows:

-Adapter - Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
-Monitor - Generic PnP Monitor

When I first plugged the VGA cable into the PC, after the re-install, a Samsung driver option appeared and then quickly changed itself to the Generic PnP driver. I have searched all over the web and cannot find the corresponding PC driver from Windows that will work with my TV (if that is even the issue). I also tried booting in Safe Mode and into low-resolution 640x480 and changing the resolution manually hoping that would work but it didn't. There are several Samsung drivers on the PC when I deselect the option "show compatible hardware" in the screen resolution window but I can't figure out which driver works for my tv.

Samsung Series 3 Laptop?

Nov 16, 2012

I have a Samsung NP300E5A-A03US laptop, It has it's own interface for it's updates, it keeps telling me I need a bios update, I have called Samsung support, chatted with Samsung techs. I have done this update at least 15 times, 2 different ways. The tier 2 tech told me that I didn't need the update, He said why do you think that your computer needs a bios update,and I said, because I keep getting these messages that I need it, and it is in the interface as needed. He said, you don't really need it, I said, why does it tell me I need the update. He said ,is your computer ok?, I said, it has some performance issues, and it turns stuff on and off by itself.I have talked to at least 5 different people ,they all make me go thru the same steps. I keep telling them, this won't work, I have tried it ten times. They are starting to get rude. I googled bios updates and Samsung, and a lot of posts came up. Can someone help me and also to understand what bios is, it says it helps with computer stability.

Samsung SGH-Z810 Not Recognized

Nov 7, 2009

I installed Windows 7 on my toshiba notebook. Everything is fine, but I cant use my 3g modem. The samsung sgh-z810 works on vista and xp.

on xp and vista, when i plug in first time to machine, it install a virtual cd, and run setup.exe from it (it is modem's the flash ram). after setup xp and vista recognize this hardware as modem (and card reader) and works.

on Windows 7 after the first step (when setup.exe closed) the Windows 7 doesn't recognize the modem. the modem is not listed on device manager...

i read, that will works if i make virtual xp mode, but my laptop not support this mode.

i saved the drivers from XP with driver-magician, but i cant add device to the device manager. the hardware not shown in the list.

i want to "add as older hardware" to add device in device manager, but i cant use the driver .inf files. when i click on it, the device's list is empty, can't choose from the manufacturers / devices list.

i can use modem if i run virtual machine with installed XP on windows 7, but Windows 7 "alone" cant recognize this s h i t.
