  • Problem starting with the Tecra A8 and A9 models

    We have about 20 or more, A8 and A9 Tecra notebooks and each has shown signs of the same problem again. If rebotting and netwrok cable is attached, so they will not start. Remove the cable and it is a normal startup.
    The A8 has a motherboard replacement (problem existed before the replacement) and is still there now after the replacement. The MB is replaced mainly because the sound card was dead. All machines are running XP Pro OS. The A9 is a novelty. Would be - this driver issue or - this one of my favorite - an update from MS that has caused problems.

    > If reboot and the cable network is connected, then they will not start. Remove the cable and it is a normal startup.

    Hmm that's strange.
    However, I recommend that you check the BIOS settings, please ensure that LAN is not set as first boot device.
    Also check if the BIOS has been updated to the State

    Sorry, but this is really rare and you should try universal workaround solutions that could help resolve this problem.

  • Problem starting Portege 7200 - stops running and the light flashes

    I have a portege 7200 with the docker dock 2 dvd, no problems until this weekend, when it stopped starting.

    its plugged into the power outlet and it starts the first windows 98 after the screen time, works my virus checker then the screen goes black, computer stops and the led on flashes.

    ive tried to boot from a CD, using the battery, reinstall windows, all I can think about

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Have you tried to run the notebook without the docking station?
    If this isn't the case, then try it.
    Also, try to remove the battery for a while. Then try to start the unit only with the power adapter.

    But generally, if the LED flashes then this means that there is a hardware malfunction.
    The flash code can only be read by the authorized service partner. Guys are able to find the hardware failure.
    Well well, in this case, if the procedures described above don? help I recommend you contact Toshiba service partner in your country.

    Good luck

  • MacBook pro 2 logon screen starts with no arrow cursor and must be restarted

    2014 Macbook Pro screen Retina 2 13 "opening session starts with no arrow cursor and must be restarted once every five tests.  When the computer reboots, message appears asking you if it must open programs that had started to load or cancel.  It is a recent problem that does not occur two months ago.  Once restarted, everything seems to be OK.  That is what it is?

    Try the start mode by holding down the SHIFT key at startup. Secure boot is quite slow because the operating system performs some cleanup and verification tasks, so give it time. Once you're completely connected, restart normally.

  • New session started with an advertising page and all my tabs are lost

    New session started with an advertising page and all my tabs are lost. Restore the previous session is not active. How can I restore my tabs?

    Great work!

    Sessionstore.bak files are ancient, probably autour time that you have installed Firefox 33 when the sessionstore-backup folder has been added.

    To try using one or more files in the sessionstore-backup folder, here is the process:

    (1) exit Firefox and it must create a sessionstore.js from the main level of the profile folder file.

    (2) rename sessionstore.js to sessionstore.old file, or if you think that you will ever need, delete it.

    (3) copy in recovery.js or previous.js and rename sessionstore.js.

    (4) start Firefox then try to restore previous Session. Those are the tabs you want? If this isn't the case, you can try one of the other files in your backup sessionstore-backup.

    If none of the files has the missing tabs, you could try a recent Windows restore point. It's more complicated on Windows 8 on Windows 7, and you could benefit from using a third-party utility. These have been mentioned in another thread:

    Or... I read on a roundabout way to get previous Versions on the Properties dialog box in Windows 8. I can't test it myself, but here's what you do:

    In the address bar of your Windows Explorer dialog box, replace the current path with the following and press ENTER:

    \\localhost\c$

    Then click at the end and nail on the following (with your user name) and press ENTER:

    \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

    That should help you in the vicinity of your profile folder. Then you can right-click sessionstore.js > properties > Previous Versions, or try one of the files in sessionstore-backups.

  • Problems using with a 40TL968B TV and the Blu ray BDX4350 FPT-AG02G 3D glasses

    Hello

    I just set up a new player to Tv and BDX4350 40TL968B.

    I decided to invest in two or three pairs of glasses of the FPT-AG02G.

    When you try to view a 3D disc I'm having a problem where the shutter affect on continue glass cutting.

    What is happening on the two pairs of glasses and they both had a full charge using the USB cable supplied.

    When I turn on the light flashes every few seconds and if I get close to the TV, the 3-d effect begins on the glasses. This will continue for perhaps 5 to 10 seconds, where the function of components and the image appears is 3D, before stopping and I find myself watching the blurry image of TV again.

    If I move then if the lenses are very close to the IR output of the TV then the affect of filling may start but stop after period again.

    The TV IR Transmitter is not blocked by anything whatsoever, and niether is the receiver the most on the glasses.

    Everyone knows that before or have any ideas how to overcome the problem?

    Thank you, Ian.

    I think you should check if the battery of 3D glasses is OK.

    I found a nice page of FAQ from Toshiba that can be useful in the future. :

    When turned on, all lights are on except for the Caps lock and Num that flashes 5 times.

    My laptop Compaq Presario 6604 to THE beginning to give a lot of problems in recent times. Every day, I spend a lot time on their fixation; no resolution anyway.

    Problem 1: BIOS hangs at startup

    BIOS hangs at the initial screen for 3-5 minutes. After 3-5 minutes, it goes to the next screen. Pressing only works key "ESC". I tried the BIOS flashed with the latest firmware (PRICE Phoenix F 32). Problem persists.

    What I tried:

    1 memory module checked. Tried different RAM module.

    2 checked hard drive for errors - Self Test passed.

    3 flashed the BIOS with the latest Firmware.

    Problem 2:

    If CD/DVD disc problem is related to the two above, we can discuss it further. Otherwise, I'll look it up in other sections of the forum.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Solved!

    The problem was with supply management power to the motherboard. I took it to a service person and he said it's a common problem with Compaq V6000 laptop /V3000 of the series... He solved the problem in 30 mins by replacing the chips... Too bad I spent several weeks on troubleshooting the problem myself.

    I hope that this post will help someone...

    Thank you!

  • Compaq Presario C731TU: RAM and CPU max UPGRADE Presario C731tu chipset GLS960 cpusocket PPGA478 RAM and CPU max UPGRADE

    Hi all!

    I have a Compaq Presario C731TU I absolutely need to upgrade its opportunities top of page. I discovered that he could run processor family Intel core 2 duo, and celeron family, that sounds really good!

    Then consulted taken PPGA478 processors on the site of intel with their processor feature filter (http://ark.intel.com/search/advanced?s=t&FamilyText=Legacy%20Intel%C2%AE%20Core%E2%84%A22%20Processo...)   the best option seems to be Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T9500 (2.60 GHz, 800 MHz FSB, 6 MB Cache).

    My question is:

    Is there another cpu option better? Inside of a forum, I read that it can withstand up to Intel C2D T9xxx family but after T9500 (e.g. T9600 or T9900) taking turns into PGA478 and not PPGA478. What is the difference between PPGA478 and PGA478? are they the same or not?

    Are there limits on the CPU with the BIOS upgrade? (mine is upgrated to F34 which should be the latest version)

    About RAM: this laptop should work max 2 GB of ram but in fact I use it with 3 GB of ram (with these config.: 1 GB on the inner slot and 2 GB on the external, the inverse solution does not work, can not guess why), but someone "found a way" to use the 2 banks of 2 GB 4 GB total (and if according with this http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/specupdate/316274.pdf - pag. 19 - should be quite possible) , what ram 2x2gb modules can be accepted if? Help me = S

    Thank you very much in advance!

    I opened the laptop and the chipset inside the computer, wirtten there is an INTEL GL 960 who should manage only 553 mhz FSB... But... I installed inside, as the core 2 duo t9300, which has 800 Mhz FSB and it is fully functional in frequency from 800 Mhz to FSB. Really good news =)

    AIDA 64 tool (former Everest) shows the FSB of GL960 chipset can run on 533, 667 and 800 Mhz frequency.

  • Compaq mini c110: problem starting Compaq mini c110

    Hello

    I have compaq mini c110 and when I start it up it gets to the windows loading screen and then it restarts every time. So I decided to reinstall windows. I tried with windows 7, I get the first screen where I choose language after that when I press on install it just "freezes". I waited 2 hours to get to the partitions so I can format them and install windows but nothing happened. Then I tried to install windows XP, I got to the part where he asks me what partition I want to install windows and when I select it it starts formatting and after 20 or 40% in fact, it gave me error that my hard drive is damaged and could not be partitioned.

    I want to know if I should buy a new hard drive in this case, I would like to buy ssd or is something wrong with my mbr, I would get another message if it's defective mbr and how could I solve this problem? Or maybe it's completely another thing?

    Thank you
