Flashing at startup.

Well it's not really bother me, but I was wondering. When I turn on my PC (HP Pavilion a6305-uk) the power button flashes and my diet click at the same time for about 10 seconds before starting. Is this because the power supply is not transmitting enough power for the PC at startup? Thanks for all replies.

Hello James,.

Your power supply should not be made of the sounds - mechanical relay went out years and years and years. I'd get this machine looked at as soon as POSSIBLE, because if the power supply goes out, you'll have nothing working and some semblance of a mystery on your hands. This isn't a software problem, which is what we are dealing with here. I'm sorry.

Post your results here and let me know how you fare.

Kind regards

  • Question mark flashing at startup

    Spring 2011 MBP with EL Capitan.  Thus, used my MBP last night and he started beachballing and force apps to quit smoking, I started but performance has not improved and the beachballing continued.  Was not yet able to click on the Apple icon to restart.  So, off the power by using the power button to restart as I did several times.  Reverse and get the screen gray with the folder icon and flashing question mark.  Completely bewildered, because I have never seen it before.  Restart again trying to reset the LANDAU thought that might have some effect, nothing will do. So, do a quick search on the old smartphone and find out how to get into recovery mode.  Go to the utility disk and look for my HARD drive, but he's not here.  Only disk 0 and then below Base of OS X system, something like that, don't remember what he said exactly.  Yes, I knocked at the realization that my HARD drive is erased, but I wonder if it is indeed cleared or if some kind of virus or something could have caused this and that, somewhere, my HARD drive is still intact.  I know it's probably a long shot and wishful thinking, but I'm exploring all the possibilities before you restore from my backup.  I have not saved in a few months, so I really hope this is the case, because I've probably lost some important stuff...

    Any help would be appreciated...

  • HP G62 - 229WM Notebook PC lock flashing at startup

    I have a HP G62 - 229WM Notebook PC that will not start.  It is consumed, but black on screen.  I have a fixed light at the power button / stop and the caps lock has a flashing regular, only 1 in the series.  I replaced the processor and still have the same question.  Is it the motherboard?

    Sorry, but it doesn't seem to be the motherboard. I've seen other posters have the same processor Flash error but no luck when his replacement. I think that it can actually be a bad cpu socket causing the blink code.

  • Black screen, caps lock flashes on startup

    Dear everybody. I know there are already a lot of similar topics, but none seem to portray exactly my situation, so I hope someone will be able to land a helpful hand.

    Then. A few months ago I had to move to Japan in my country (Italy). The warranty on my HP dv7 6189 sl expired while I was here, but since my laptop was having really bad cooling problems, I have documented my self with videos and guides to the internet and everything I coul find and decided to take it apart myself. I cleaned all the dust from the fan, the basic form of thermal paste on the processor and the Ati HD 6770. Then again once, back to paying attention to put it all together as it was (HOPEFULLY). Anyway, when I tried to start on the laptop, I found it now black screen guard. The light F-12 (wlan connection) continues, keeps flashing orange (like no wi - fi connection) and the CAPS LOCK. It seems to me it blinks THREE times before stopping a few lil lil and then repeat the cycle again. Anyone know what can be the problem? I'm desperate... Thanks in advance...

    Hello

    Based on the codes of following indicators:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01443366

    You must:

    (a) reinstall the memory.
    (b) If you continue to experience this error code after the reinstallation of the memory, the problem may be with the memory itself. Grab the new memory of the computer, put back original memory in the computer, and then test again it.

    Good luck.

    PS we have a rule in our data centers: do not touch the machine without a static Anti bracelet.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - black screen and a cursor flashing during startup

    When my laptop start, after it shows the press f2 or f12 and then from windows, it goes to a black screen with the cursor blink.

    The lights are on at the front, but there is no activity on the hard disk, such as the indicator light does not blink.

    Need help. Thank you.

    I think that your HARD drive is dead.
    You need to replace the HARD drive with a new 2.5 SATA HDD.

  • Flash 10 install and use with PowerPoint issues

    Hi feel really frustrated now and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a quick solution.

    I am running Windows 7, Flash 10.0.32.18 (now the 10.1 beta in desperation) and I did have to reinstall flash on startup until last night, so it's been an unhappy towards the bottom of the turn of events for me and not even the reason for research forums.

    My problem started as I stood in front of one of my classes (I work in a college) with PowerPoint 2007 and a lesson ready to go and the images Flash who had always worked refused to be anything other than a still image without interaction.

    Unfortunately, when I upgraded to Windows 7, I did a clean install and reinstalled Office as well as the latest versions of Flash, Shockwave etc. I say unfortunately because I now have no way of knowing where the problems lie. On request, Microsoft is categorically stated that it is a matter of Adobe and the forum appears to support this thesis.

    On the investigation, I found that when looking at a slide of the object has been identified as an object Flash, but I can't show all properties, also "insert a shockwave flash object' is not available in the control toolbox. This would indicate that Flash is not installed even if looking at a flash on the internet was not a problem.

    The last number which may help a solution, is that when you try to view a .swf file, I learned that I need to have Flash Player installed (I have) and trying to use a third party such as SWF Opener flash drive he also asks me to install flash.

    As everyone here I have installed, uninstalled all Flash etc. several times that I care to remember now.

    I'm not technically minded when it comes to the nitty gritty of software use and programming, I like just things to work.

    Please help as the most important thing I use my laptop so that I have now cannot!

    Following the previous post gm377

    Summary: The Installation from the download from Adobe site installs Flash Player 10ActiveX AND the Shockwave Flash Object

    I think that Version Stand alone of the Setup program installs ONLY the Flash Player, NOT the Shockwave Flash Object

    That is why #1 in the post before this one is correct. The Shockwave Flash object (plugin is requested)

    And that's what youtube asking because, though even they say "Flash Player", they assume and understand that the Adobe

    site installs both.

    Now, Adobe is no indication that the uninstall program needs to be run before a download and installation of Flash Player 10 ActiveX.

    In addition, because the beta was installed and now isn't there and with uninstalls and installs, you never know if there is a problem.

    Flash Player 10 ActiveX should be listed in Add/Remove and Manage Add ons Shockwave Flash - Adobe Systems, Inc. - object

    Enabled-ActiveX Control must be registered and the file is Flash10c.ocx.

    Solution: Back to the Adobe test site - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about , keeping your add ons disabled and enabled as you have indicated in the screenshot of today (20/11/09) and as the message is ' an additional plugin is required to view some items on.

    This page"and the small image says"Get Plugin"and when you click it, the message is it wants to install Flash Player. The test is clearly you say that the Shockwave Flash (ActiveX Control Flash10c.ocx) object is not there, and saying: it wants to install Flash Player, it also says Flash Player 10 ActiveX isn't here either, or the "Get Plugin" would not fail.

    If Yes, do it! Don't forget to restart later, check in Add/Remove and see what is listed, check in Manage Add ons and see what is there. Then see what youtube to say and your slides in Power Point and where else you want to go :-)

    The worst that can happen is that it won't do the job and it will uninstall it and reinstall, but I'm hoping success!

    Sorry for the long posts, but I write as I think.

    Nice screenshots by the way, thanks

    UPDATE:

    I ALMOST FORGOT, LOOK OUT FOR THE GOOGLE TOOLBAR. IT IS GENERALLY VERIFIED AND WILL INSTALL WITH ADOBE FLASH IF YOU DO NOT UNCHECK HIM.

  • Satellite P30-133 CD/DVD not recognized in Win XP

    A few months ago that the CD/DVD drive disappeared from windows XP home SP2
    It is visible in the list of the BIOS boot, but I'm not sure if it turns elsewhere in the bios.

    The BIOS also seems to be ad slowly started upward. I have reset the BIOS to default settings and the player was available for long enough to reinstall windows. Resttting the deafault BIOS does not work every time. Everything is now on the machine is a new installation of windows and the drive is not visible. Light on the DVD/CD drive flashes on startup every time, but it will not read a bootable disc.

    The disc was found in another machine and works fine. What is a BIOS problem or a motherboard problem.
    I am reluctant to spend huge sums of money on this laptop, as he already had a new motherboard a couple of years.

    Any help or advice appreciated.
    This isn't a problem that will be solved by the registry hack 'filter '.

    Have you tried a BIOS update?

    You reinstall Windows using the recovery disk? Or have you installed Street copy of XP?

    Try to boot from a Bootable CD, if it does not, then the motherboard may be faulty, or the drive has intermittent problems.

  • Satellite C660 - TOSHIBA Accessibility error

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite C660/C660D fine, apart from one or two minor issues (which this thread is on about). First of all, the laptop was and is still littered with loads of random software from TOSHIBA, here is a list:

    + TOSHIBA Assist +.
    + TOSHIBA Bulletin Board.
    + TOSHIBA ConfigFree +.
    + TOSHIBA Disc Creator +.
    + TOSHIBA face recognition.
    + Support utility TOSHIBA Flash Cards +.
    + TOSHIBA hardware setup +.
    + TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert +.
    + TOSHIBA Media Controller +.
    + TOSHIBA Media Controller plugin +.
    + TOSHIBA online product information.
    + TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator +.
    + TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator reminder +.
    + TOSHIBA ReelTime +.
    + TOSHIBA Service Station +.
    + TOSHIBA supervisor password +.
    + Toshiba TEMPRO +.
    + Package + Toshiba value added
    + TOSHIBA Web Camera Application.

    Is there an ISO image of recovery pre made somewhere or do I have to make my own, because if I decide to unisntall some of these programs, I could need at a later date?

    The second issue is with the TOSHIBA Accessibility application which shows the FN keys, it does not seem to start. He worked the first day then I disabled all startup TOSHIBA applications and I get the following error: "registry is missing or may be broken. ', I don't know why!

    I tried cleaning the registry, as well as the registry is not broken.

    * Thanks in advance *.

    Hi Olivier,.

    I'm happy to hear that you are owner of laptop Toshiba too and you've discovered the forum here. We can discuss everything on laptops from Toshiba, that s interesting :)

    I'll try to help you resolve this issue:

    1.Yes, there is a recovery image for restore factory settings with all drivers and tools on your laptop but is important burn you this image to a blank DVD using pre-installed recovery media creator. You will get a disc with an image of Windows with all the drivers and tools => settings of the case. Thus, the same parameters as you purchased the computer.

    2.i think that FN keys don t work because you have disabled some important tools Toshiba they are necessary for the FN keys. For FN keys TOSHIBA button Support and TOSHIBA Flash Cards startup items are absolutely necessary, so you should allow them and restart the computer.

  • Satellite A300D - create a recovery disk

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba A300D. Recently, I installed the version BETA of Windows 7, wiping my installation of Windows Vista on my laptop, now I don't want Windows 7 more and wants to return to Vista. I still have the recovery partition in drive D, but I don't know how to be: create a recovery from this disk or restore using this straight from the trunk. I tried pressing F11 at the Toshiba flash at startup screen, and who just go to a screen that says "Windows could not start...". "etc, I also tried to go to the Multiboot menu and selecting HDD2, and who does not work either.

    So can someone tell me how I can restore back to Windows Vista, I'm not taken worth losing data as I alll backed up on an external hard drive.
    Where can I get the Toshiva Recovery Disc Creator software anywhere?

    Hello

    He's a bad friend... usually it is not possible to restore the laptop on the factory (in the image of Toshiba) settings if you have removed the Vista HARD drive and not create the recovery disk...

    The recovery disk is THIS essential disk and must be created at the beginning!

    But maybe you're a lucky guy...
    I found this thread with a nice tutorial posted by forum user.
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=164927&

    I didn't test it and I don't know if it will work, but I think you're last option... otherwise, you will need to order the Toshiba recovery disc.

  • Recent update BIOS maybe bricking M93p tiny systems?

    1 the engine is lifting a cursor flashing at startup (brick)?

    3 machines can no longer start on the hard drive.

    In the 3 machines that do not see the hard drive to start, they sometimes show in the boot order in the BIOS, but when you try to include them in the boot order that they disappear.

    Hard drives are a recently Windows 7 64-bit image that worked before the BIOS update.

    If we network boot in PE, we can see the contents of the hard drive.

    Called Lenovo support but I got bounced around... any one see any problem like this?

    Last updated.

    After playing with the main boot order long enough and try different things, I have all 3 machines that were not recognize hard drive at startup to boot in Windows. I got one to Wake-On-Lan, but it does not work on another. Then the other came on the rise after long enough.

    One 4th I called Lenovo and I meet replaced Council.
