Why
do I need to upgrade the Intel Turbo Memory Driver on my LifeBook
S6410 from version 1.01 to version 1.1?
A1
With Intel Turbo Memory
Driver version 1.01, you may be able to see the NVCACHE drive
under the My Computer. The NVCACHE drive is only a flash memory.
The stored data may be lost after system reboot. You are suggested
to upgrade to the version 1.1. Then, the NVCACHE drive will
be invisible. You will not accidentally store your data in this
flash memory and lead to data lost.
I am reinstalling
Windows 98/ ME on my LifeBook S-4546/45 and I have an unknown
device listed?
A4
The ACPI device in some of the LifeBook
S-4546/45 series is not automatically found. If you have installed
all devices such as Modem, Audio and Video Controller, it is
probably the ACPI device that is the unknown device listed.
The ACPI device driver is available in the Drivers and Utilities
CD supplied.
My
computer keeps crashing. Where can I download a new driver for
my LifeBook S-4562 (Win 2000), or can get new BIOS for my LifeBook?
A5
This model comes with
the latest BIOS and it is not advisable to upgrade the BIOS.
All the W2K drivers can be found from our website: http://www.pc-ap.fujitsu.com/techsupp/
or from the Software Driver CD. Some drivers will be detected
by the OS itself. After installation of W2K, install all the
drivers and utilities.
I
just installed an external mouse driver (Logitech) onto my LifeBook
S-4562 which subsequently disabled the scroll buttons of the
touchpad. After uninstalling the Logitech driver it reverted
back to the normal mouse driver under the control panel, not
the touchpad driver. Is there any way I can recover the use
of the scroll functions of the touchpad?
A6
Yes. Reinstall the Touch
Pad driver again using the software driver CD. From the mouse,
select Update Driver and point it to the folder where the mouse
driver is located.
When
installing Windows Mediaplayer to 7.1 on my S-4546 with Chinese
WinME, the system displayed an error message prompting that
there was a conflict between the ATI video driver and media
player. How do I resolve this issue?
My
LifeBook S-4562 (with CD-RW), cannot view VCDs even after installation
of Video Driver. Is there anything I missed out in the installation
process?
A8
To View VCDs you need
a VCD Player. For your model, you can use the Windows MediaPlayer
to View VCD. Open the Windows MediaPlayer and select VCD files
from the CD Drive. Then start playing the VCD.
The
infrared connection on my LifeBook S-4542 is not working. Seems
like the driver is not installed. Where can I download a new
driver?
A9
The OS already has the
driver which supports Infrared. If you are installing with Win
2000 OS, the infrared icon from the control panel is called
Wireless Link. The infrared icon will pop-up on the taskbar
if there is another infrared device linked to the system.
I
would like to have the PMSET driver for my LifeBook S-452 using
Windows 2000 Pro.
A10
PMSET is not designed
for Windows 2000, thus PMSET is not available for this operating
system. Please contact the service centre to obtain the correct
modem driver for your LifeBook S-452 that is compatible with
Windows 2000.
I
tried to upgrade Windows XP for my LifeBook S-4510 but I lack
the latest Audio driver and DVD driver. Also my Norton Antivirus
7.5 Real Time Protection does not work and I am unable to play
DVD using Windows XP on my laptop.
The Audio driver is installed by default and does not require
a reboot to activate the sound device. The Windows DVD player
version for Windows XP is 3.1 from Intervideo (http://www.intervideo.com/),
Norton Anti-Virus Version 2002 support for Windows XP.
I
need to reformat my LifeBook S-4532 but I have lost my Recovery
disk. When I tried to download the drivers from the Fujitsu
website (http://www.fujitsu.com), the zip file did not contain
any setup or *.exe files. Is it possible for me to get a new
Recovery CD for my LifeBook?
A12
LifeBook S-4532 sold
by Fujitsu PC Asia Pacific does not come with Recovery CD. Instead
it has a generic Windows 98 CD, which enables you to re-install
your Windows 98 if you need to. After you have re-installed
your Windows 98, use the Composite/Driver CD to re-install your
device driver or utility software.
We strongly encourage users to re-install Windows 98 in the
event that the system fails to start up at all. Under normal
circumstances, the system usually hangs due to a particular
application, which can then be easily rectified by simply
uninstalling that particular application.
The website you are referring to is for Fujitsu products
from the US and not the Fujitsu PC Asia website.
The
following error messages appear when I use the Windows 2000
ATI Video Driver for my LifeBook S-4546 which was downloaded
from the Fujitsu website:
1. The WDM Video Audio Crossbar (ATIBar) application failed
to start.
2. The WDM Video TVAudio Crossbar (ATITVSnd) application failed
to start.
3. The WDM Video Capture For AIW (AtiBt829) application failed
to start.
A13
The error messages indicate
that the Video capture function is not available and that the
function is disabled on the Video card. This is just a false
error message on the event viewer in Windows 2000 and will not
affect the system performance.
I
installed Windows XP Home Edition in my LifeBook S-4562. After
that, the scroll button on my mouse stopped working. The touch
pad and its left and right clicks still work fine.
I used to be able to see the green illuminated adjustment bar
on the screen whenever I adjust the volume or brightness in
Windows ME but it is not visible now. During installation, an
error message reported that the Yamaha AC-XG driver is not compatible
with the operating system:
"Software That Does Not Support Windows XP. Setup has found
programs on your computer that are incompatible with Windows
XP. Contact your software vendors to obtain updates or Windows
XP-compatible versions. If you do not update these programs
before you upgrade, the programs will not work after the upgrade
is completed. Yamaha AC-XG (in Control Panel)"
Are there any updated drivers compatible with Windows XP?
A14
Please install the Hotkey
Utility to replace the Battery Aid for the green menu bar when
you reduce the volume. Prior to that, update the driver for
the 'Unknown device' with the ACPI driver. Please refer to our
website under 'LifeBook Drivers'. Select 'LifeBook Utility and
Options Driver' to look for the above utility application. For
the scroll button, you will need to update the default driver.
