His bodyguard out

The sound on my Toshiba Satellite P855 continues to go out (Windows 8). It is not the speakers... headphones does not work either. The Device Manager shows the device works correctly, the drivers are up to date. If I right click on the speaker icon on the bottom toolbar and run 'configure' on "playback devices", it says "this device is used by another application...". "No other applications are running. System reboot will bring her back, but he died finally again.

Any help is appreciated.

  • His bland out syntax?

    Relearning ed. After several years in a row and update old files, I find things do not work in dir. 11.

    In the old days, it was in the library of Lingo and was a common partition entry:

    on exitFrame

    sound fadeOUT, 5 * 60

    end

    This causes a script error now. What should I use instead?

    Thank you

    Check the docs. You must provide a sound channel object and the milliseconds that abating with the. So, assuming that your sound is played in the channel 1, it might be

    on exitFrame me
      -- your 5 * 60 looks like a 'ticks' value
      -- in which case it's 5 seconds or 5000 ms
      sound(1).fadeOut(5000)

  • Reinstalling Windows without installation disks

    Let me clarify some things that I think are made:

    Laptop = ideapad z575 which is a windows 7 64 bit computer.

    Windows wouldn't boot because it has an error since avg and update wondows - avg seem to be ashamed that their driver is the last show at startup but remove avg then showed another driver and it all points to a depth of problem.
    In short, I feel that a reinstallation is the best way forward.

    I saved my data sisters so happy to do a quick format and reinstall of windows 7 - have the serial number sticker, but no disk I do not think that it shipped in all.

    I didn't modify all partitions, but using a utility disk in the back that I was able to access it via the standard boot drive I can put another active partition... now to return back I had to create a bootable utility that I made from USB, it also allows me to inspect the readers through a windows interface.

    So I am here and able to do a lot in the back through my USB. I saw and was able to run a recovery program that is located on one of the partitions. But he told me that something was friends with readers and I think it's because of my defining a different partition as the only active.

    What is the next best step for me it feels exaggerated do not use partition lenovo gave to reinstall windows, hoping I wouldn't need browse and find/download all the drivers, etc... and not to mention updates of bios etc...

    I can say that I have the following discs and back access and access through GUI.

    When I say access via the GUI I found that I was able to do this system revoery options screen when he says click to search the drivers an interface will appear and where I can the eyebrows of all partitions and USB - which was pretty cool. The button says "Load Drivers" and from there, I can choose the partition and try and run one touch back.

    When he first boot from USB it looks like as it is by default and selects a Boot called drive (X and the default folder is the Windows/System32 folder.)

    Here are the disks or partitions I can see and explore

    Lenovo (C 27.5 Free GB GB 28.9 contains just request files and drivers.)

    Local disk (E it looks like there's a Windows installation on it that I can see my sistsers files in the my documents (I got these by using XCOPY to get the complete recursive directory and do be careful if you use just "copy" as it will ignore folders and files inside!)) For me, it's the normal bootable disc and one that is broken.
    349 GB free of 421 GB so this seems to confirm that it is the main trunk and use the partition.

    Local disk (D only 166 199MB MB no said no files and folders at least since the GUI - perhaps back can show me something...)

    Start (X 29.1 MB of free space of 31.5 MB I don't think it's my USB (NOT confirmed) the last modified date is 2009! he seems to have a windows installation - is possible to reinstall from that?) I tried to click on a setup.exe found here but it does not work via the GUI as it comes to find specific drivers is not not a general file Explorer.

    I have 2 drives USB also visible to help me. I got the above files to another on the ERD. And the 3rd is the CD. If these are known as CDROM (F, Reapir disk (G: I did that) and 32 GB Flash (H)

    Maybe I need to burn an iso install wondows in the latter. Who can be a last resort.

    What is perhaps a few right steps to take right now. I think I should be able to change my active partition and get a contact working again by reversing what I was doing back disk partition - don't remember the name... a few trial and error required.

    But I hope that with this info I can get my sisters laptop that works again. I think also that if I took it to a local shop they will simply be to format and reinstall windows 7 and drivers do not care to take the time to maybe get to a situation of factory. It is because the baisc economy. I don't want to go that route because I know I can do what I want to just make the best way.

    Knew nothing about this function - will keep in mind for the next window of time slows down or does not start - throw his toys out of the pram etc... suffering from windows computer slow? You are not alone

    In any case, I think I've sorted it. Hope that C is not too fragmented because I chose to not be complicated with a format and keep the original scores. In this way its just easier.

    Wifi that I had remembered to disable in the BIOS.

  • Help with multitasking it please?

    Since I got my phone (Moto G 8 GB), multitasking has been terrible. I love the phone, but it's his left out major. Switching between the 2 applications at the same time generally involves having to reload the entire application, even some of the lighter applications such as contacts. I looked in the settings and everything is OK, as the apos as the default background. Also, I don't seem to have any heavy applications running in the background. Facebook is the heaviest app I have on my phone. I wonder if there is anything I can do to remedy to this or if anyone else has this problem?

    When you switch between applications, they restart because the system runs on the RAM. You see the message to reboot on some of these processes because the system killed these processes in order to keep others running and to free some RAM when its need is why you always have a bit of free RAM.

    Even the Air iPad with 1 GB of RAM, even that bike G, has problems, keeping applications running in the background. I'm afraid that this problem is quite normal if you have applications that run in the background taking up RAM. The system kills just the process relatively little important, as Google play music and display of WiFi, to keep others running and have at least a little memory available when it is needed.

    So you're an Android user average above that you have several applications that won't install average consumers, so I recommend going with a phone in the future who has at least 2 GB of RAM.

    P.S. I read in places that Motorola is aggressive with background applications to help with the battery, so maybe that is why the system cannot even keep apps simple people in memory, even if you have still a few available RAM.
