Dimension 4600i will start only after I have press F1 to continue

I have a Dell 4600i, BIOS v. A12, purchased in 2004. Well well, the IDE crashed hard disk so I replaced it with a 250 GB Seagate SATA (SATA 0). Install XP Pro without problem, (I DO NOT press F6 for RAID config part 3 drivers, don't think I'm being SATA connectors on the motherboard) but then had to restart machine and let's go... Was told that each player not connected are not (well since they are not connected). This includes s SATA, IDE primary, secondary IDE blah blah blah. He said nothing on the drive on which is connected, as it was detected but does not just go? And of course I get "F1 to continue, F2 for Setup.

I press F1 and it starts with windows with no problems, works fine!

All just annoying to have to press F1 each time that I reboot? The only way it will start without pressing F1 is to disable the other drives in the BIOS? I've 2 options in the section of the sequence of Boot, "Drive C" & "USB device"?

There is no option for me select it in the BIOS to boot from "SATA (?)", JUST "drive C".

In the section hard drive, alll readers are set to "auto-detect" and it does not recognize my SATA drive as primary.

No idea how to fix this with turning off all other readers?

Thank you

  • Time capsule starts only after the last update

    We recommend that you do NOT. It is often not successful and it is better to keep an archive on a USB drive for a few months and once you have a decent amount of history to put the USB back to other uses.

    You can copy the sparsebundle to each computer... Apple has a set of instructions--small as usual.

    Any practice of best approaches on the Capsule of backup for the future (for example via a connected USB drive)?

    A TC has only a function of archive built in. Whenever you press on archive it backs up the entire TC on USB... not possible for incremental backup.

    You can work around this by using Carbon Copy Cloner... which can save almost anything to almost anywhere... However, it is extremely slow more wireless when the backup drive is plugged into the USB TC rather than on the computer... To copy all packages to TC on computer... computer to TC... TC on the USB drive.

    On ethernet, it is full duplex and should work ok... but it is always faster to plug the drive into the Mac and so you travel go simple package.

    I intend to buy a new (although my NAS (QNAP) would support Time Machine backups, I don't plan to use it, not even for a double-backup-strategy).

    I would certainly use the QNAP but with Carbon Copy Cloner rather than Time Machine. It is much more reliable and flexible... Although it lacks the possibility of several version of TM.

    A dual strategy of backup using TM and CCC is well worth... make clones bootable from all your computers on USB auto powered 2.5 "drives suitable size for each computer.

    Yes, you're right!

    In any case, the cause of your problem is the same:

    Cause

    The problem occurs when the database schema version is not compatible with the version of vCenter Server device.

    I guess you need to reinstall the device vcenter.

    Another option may be to back up and restore the database to the new vcenter appliance:

  • CC of Photoshop starts only after the update not

    HY everybody,

    This afternoon, I did an update to photoshop CC (from Creative cloud Panel).

    After restarting my computer photoshop CC starts not more. It is said

    Cannot find ahclient.dll, try to reinstall the software

    It seems an odd error, couse installed Photoshop CS6 begins regular without error.

    How can I solve? How can I download a new package of Creative cloud Panel?

    Thanks to you all.

    Flavio

    This error comes usually when there is a corrupted installation of the Ps (or the user has deleted/moved the affected files). In this case, you need to install PS CC after using cleaning tool (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html)

    Please confirm that you initially installed Ps of CC app itself?

    Kind regards

    Hello

    I updated the BIOS of 3.05 to 3.08 and the unit starts, loads for a little, blue screen of death and then begins. All the solutions to this problem?

    I changed the SATA from AHCI to IDE settings in the BIOS and I can now boot Windows

  • Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Model A3E82AV number

    I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.

    I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.

    I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

    I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.

    This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?

    Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

    FIXED!

    I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.

    The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

    For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

    Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
    Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

    Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A

    If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

  • Firefox plant start up after update of Norton 22.5.4.24 - does not start even in safe mode

    Incident reports could help us by giving you an individual diagnosis, but if they are accidents of almost instantaneous startup, allow me to mention something that is 'flow' where you have this problem:

    Firefox crashes a few seconds of starting if you have either the Applian Technologies Freecorder and Replay Media Catcher programs in combination with Norton Security software (and possibly other security software).

    If you have either of these Applian programs and it is not essential, try to uninstall it then restart Windows to ensure that none of its components are running.

    Firefox will start normally after that?
