F2, F12, startup, configuration... Help!

When I turn on my computer (usually by opening the lid and pressing the power button to wake the portable computer), I get this:

WARNING: The battery cannot be identified. The system will not be able to charge this battery.

Press a key to continue.


I don't know what to do and were simply hit any key to continue. Battery recharge when plugged in AC. So I have no idea what that means all or what to do. F2 or F12? Help, please.

Thank you!

Hello enj64,

Your battery may need to be replaced. Have you tried to remove and reinstall the battery? How old is this laptop? Maybe you should contact the manufacturer of your laptop to get help because there may be a recall on this farm. Let us know if this helps you. Make it a great day!

    If the Mode and/or the system restore safe does not work and you do not have a Microsoft DVD of Vista (you have Dell, HP, etc.), do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    Equium A100-147 (Windows MCE) bought compatible Vista and bought my promised copy of Vista... used Toshiba step by step DVD ROM upgrade and also updated the Bios.

    Tried to load Vista Home Premium and after going through all the steps, it came with this message...

    How should I proceed and what is useful to load Vista.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Considers that Howard.

    Hello

    How have you tried to install vista on the laptop?
    Have you tried to switch the MCE to Vista or were you running the new clean install of Vista?

    In my opinion, you must perform a clean installation. Don t updated the existing MCE of Vista.
    In such cases, you can join different installation problems

    Hello

    Try this:

    Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
    Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
    Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.

    Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT

    Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
    you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).

    Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
    Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
    most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
    run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • The parallel model configuration help

    This is my first time posting, but I'm a long time reader...

    First of all, I consider my knowledge novice Teststand high to low intermidiate level. I created a sequence test to aid in Teststand that call labview vi. My test sequence tests 5 units at a time in a parallel model (model in parallel sequence). From a functional point of view, everything works great for single pass and loops. However, here's my problem:

    When you select "USE Test", it brings up a window that asks you the serial number for each of the five stations. The operator must then enter a serial number for each and press OK proceed. This configuration is not valid for what I do. My test setup has a button for each of the 5 stations. The user must press the button to start the test (connects to a data acquisition). Then the serial number is read from the UUT and entered in the report.

    How could I go how to reconfigure it? I'm not looking for someone solve my problems for me, I just need a little direction. I looked at the parallel sequence model and I may not know where to go with it.

    Help, please

    Ryan

    TestStand 4.2

    LabVIEW 2009

    In the parallel model, you will see the Pre DUT reminder.  Inside of there, you will find the steps that call the dialog box you're talking about.  The best option is to replace it in your file of the client's sequence.  Then write your own code that dictate the required operators to go direction.

    It's just the description the General "point you in the right direction."  Please let me know if you want more details.

  • RAID 10 configuration help

    I built my new computer and decided to go with a RAID 10 configuration. After windows installation and reboot I got a critical RAID warning during startup. I have identified the drive has failed and returned. I installed the replacement drive and I still get the same error. Is there something special that I'm supposed to do when I replace one of the disks?

    Space is never the issue and speed is a raid10 alone is not enough for editing. Now, you may need to start over again, refcreating the table, reformatting and reinstalling. Don't forget to disable before you re-create the matrix.

    I called once Raid10 the format of table for the paranoid in a hurry. It seems to be the opposite, since you have to start over.

  • Whatever happens, PS CS4 crashes on startup, please help?

    So, to start with, I just built a system, here are the specs:

    Intel Core i7 920

    6 GB OCZ Ram

    MSI X 58 Pro Motherboard

    ASUS EAH 4870 top graphic

    Vista Ultimate 64

    Initially, I built this system about a week and a half and place a copy of the Windows 7 beta on this subject in the meantime that my copy of Vista to arrive. PS installed fine, was blazing fast, and everything was good.

    Then I had Vista, formatted the system, etc. Tried to install PS, and it would crash at startup. I thought that it was pilot issues, so I decided to treat it later. I updated all the drivers, etc, and it still doesn't work. I uninstalled, but got an error on uninstall. Finally, I found the PS clean uninstall script, and that helps. Now when I try to reinstall, it reinstalls all right, but once again, immediate crash. I thought, long shot, but perhaps in some kind my PS disk was corrupted, so I spent last night DLing a trial from here. Once again, an immediate crash.

    Running 64-bit Vista, I have the ability to open fade Adobe Photoshop CS4 or Adobe Photoshop CS4 (32-bit). They both have the same exact error.

    It becomes quite annoying and I was honestly already too long perusing the KB articles, and I hope that you guys might have a solution for me. I've attached a screenshot of the error I get. If it's important, it's a shot of the installation of the test, I downloaded.

    About a "program" causing the it and closing of Windows, this happens even with nothing open to all, including things from system tray. Whatever Windows also says, it closes, this isn't either or it does not help.

    Thanks for any input.

    Depending on just how Win - 7, Photoshop CS-4 and work of Vista, you will maybe to wipe the Master Boot Record of the disk area, reformat, then re - install the operating system and Photoshop, as well as all the rest, you put on it.

    I hope there is an answer more simple that helps, but it's the best I can find.

  • LDAP configuration help

    I am trying to configure Oracle BPM Suite 10 gR 3 to use a hybrid directory so my participants may be in LDAP.

    I put it in place and it works properly but I need to specify a search for BPM database to look for participants. Currently when I select participants in the process administrator he tries to retrieve all users in my LDAP directory but I want only that it looks like those in a particular context for example OU = bpm, ou = users, o = myorg rather than everyone under o = myorg.

    I guess that there must be a property I can specify to do so, but can't find any documentation as to what it may be.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Mike.

    Hi Mike

    You can try changing the LDAP property file in the directory conf in the installation of Enterprise BPM.
    inside the first occurrence of the "parent dn" tag, specify o = myorg, ou = users

  • Mac Pro: 5 Monitor Configuration help

    Hey guys!

    I have been working on a fairly massive project and am in need of some specific knowledge, Mac Pro, I did not.

    We will use the end 2013 Mac Pro as our work computer to bid on multiple auctions on multiple screens simultaneously. To illustrate the concept:

    * Forgive my skills as God art *.

    The problem we run into is wiring all 5 screens for the Mac Pro. Poster 2-5 have only the HDMI and VGA inputs. We are in need of the best possible quality who can offer screens of theses, my idea was just to pick up MiniDisplay 4 HDMI adapters to connect to the wall mounted monitors and use a Thunderbolt cable to connect the Thunderbolt Display. However, I have been informed and influenced in the delicate on the Mac Pro website formulation in the belief that the end of 2013 Mac Pro can handle 2 HDMI monitors.

    I would like to know your opinion on using MiniDisplay 4 HDMI adapters or not will work. And if no, what is the way to achieve the best quality on the whole upward.

    I thank very you much for your time and help!

    -Austin

    The 2013 MP can handle two monitors inherited (HDMI and DVI) with the cheaper passive miniDP > HDMI or DVI adapter. For more than two adopters must be active adapters.

    All adopters VGA are active.

    This is an active NPD > adopting HDMI

    Download and install Revo Uninstaller from the link below.

    http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-freeware-version.php

    Run revo and use it to uninstall your printer software.  Make a right click on the program icon you want to remove and select uninstall.  During the process, that you may be asked to remove the registry entries, simply select all and then click on remove.  Do the same for any left over files and folders.  Once you have finished all the uninstalls, restart the PC.

    I hope this helps.

  • Computer now put in hibernation, Vista will not boot. Computer stuck on black screen after startup. Help?

    I put my computer on 'Hibernate' when I went to bed. When I woke up, I started the computer learned to manufacturer (HP) computer screen introduction as usual, but windows doesn't not load afterwards, as he usually does: I just get a black screen. Lights supply and all the rest are on. Just nothing happens. Any ideas?

I tried Googling the problem, and some signs indicate a problem with the powercfg parameter. I can't get in cmd.exe to reset because I can't get into windows (although through HP firmware, I can enter in "Administrator: X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe - cmd", which seems the same, but the orders that I see offered on websites do not seem to work - help?).
