RC1 + Toshiba Tecra M4 = problem

Posted: 09-08-2006, 12:37 AM
RC1 will not install on my Tecra M4. It tells me that my bios is
incompatible with Vista. I'm running bios 1.70. What's the fix?

Have you checked for a later BIOS?

Contact Toshiba.and ask about Vista compatibility.
I have a Toshiba Tecra S1 and Vista seems to run fine.

To Jupiter Jones:

I have a Tecra S1 also, and I don't know if you've encountered this problem
but I cannot get the built-in Intel 2100A wireless card to install. The
driver installation always times out and doesn't go through properly with
built-in vista drivers, but it works on the XP install.. any ideas?

To Jupiter Jones:

Hey I have a Tecra S1 also, everything installs fine except for the wifi
network card; the driver installation always times out and cannot complete
successfully even with the built in Vista drivers. It works in XP. Any
ideas?

Mine is a 2200 BG and that may be enough of a difference.
It functions fine with the native Vista drivers.
