Winbook TW700 Adobe Flash player for Firefox

So I have picked up a great little Winbook TW700 with Windows 8.1 More on that later. But after installing FireFox (my most used browser) I was faced with this
issue installing Adobe Flash player.  

Adobe Flash Player will not install on my Winbook tw700!!!

The problem is the blank install screen for Adobe Flash Player for FireFox.  Now Internet Explorer already comes with flash so if you like IE and use it.  You will not need this File or work around.


Head out to Adobe's Web site here  and make sure you scroll down, don't click the Flash player to the right, go down to where it says download the exe installer file for Windows plug-in based browsers.  Flash Player 16.0.0.235.

This will work for FireFox and you can now watch your YouTube videos, Play your Flash Based Games, and get all the latest greatest info off of cnet.  

Happy computing every one.

Now with the FireFox updates you will be confronted with  FireFox blocking the outdated Flash Player... but click on allow till they get this problem fixed... and I will still work great..

Toshiba M700 PCI Simple Communication Contoller

Toshiba M700 PCI Simple Communication Controller Still working on the clean install of Windows Vista on the Toshiba M700 Tablet convertible laptop/notebook
So this was a unit that was purchased with no hard drive "previous owner had a drive crash and removed it" and no recovery disks... I know .. stupid me thinking this would be easy.. So with the COA I know I am legal in loading Vista Business on the notebook. So a clean install with a new drive was in order. Multiple and I mean alot of drivers installed off of Toshiba's wonderful site "Note the Sarcasm" now have PCI Simple Communications Controller" in device manager with the trusty yellow !... Wonderful... Turns out you must install the proper AMT driver not just any old AMT driver off Toshiba's web site but as of today the file name is driver_intel_amt_26827C.exe.. I'm not going to even bother with a link cause Toshiba will convert it and just send you to their default support page. Good luck in your search for drivers... I think this may work for Windows 7 as well but I will not be trying it .. this one will be on CraigsList in the morning. Not my cup of Tea... Will be going back to my MacBook Pro Thank You Very Much ... it Just Works. OH yea and not a FanBoy... Have multiple PC's/Servers I support with Windows.. HA.

Toshiba M700 PCI Memory Controller

Doing a clean install of Windows Vista (Not a recover" on the Toshiba M700 Convertable Tablet style notebook comes with some problems.. As usual
so after navigating through Toshiba's web site for downloads and thinking I had gotten everything .. device manager of Windows Vista showed no device driver for "PCI Memory Controller" after reinstalling driver after driver from the wonderful Toshiba site... "RANT" Why would they not just post the most recent driver like oh I don't know ... HP in a nice list per each operating system instead they make you scroll through ever single driver they have... For this one you are looking for the Intel Robson Technology Driver for Windows Vista.. I am not bothering to put a link in here due to the fact that any external links just go to the default Tosiba support page ... the actual file name as of today is driver_sata_intel_26822a.exe Good luck in all your driver searches..
