• HP Blackbird 002 gaming system restart problem

  Product name: HP Blackbird 002 LCi

  Backbround: Fantastic machine and very expensive.  When I bought it, I learned by HP that there technical support (not necessarily free) for life as long as HP was in business.  Apparently is no longer supported by three HP tech, Shsma, Mankish and Ajfhat.  So here I am.  I upgraded hard drives and the operating system, Vista Ultimate original, Windows 7, Windows 8 over the years.  Works like a charm.

  Problem: I had this problem with the three operating systems.  Whenever there is a power failure or I shut down the computer, the led lights in the case flashes constantly and I'm unable to turn it back on by pressing the power button.  I have to unplug the computer, wait a few moments, plug it back, then press the power button.  Then and then only, not this kick in and start.  Is it the power supply?  Is it the motherboard?  Or is it something more simple, like the battery on the motherboard?

  In addition, the front of the box has two buttons.  The left is the symbol of power.  The right one has a circle with a triangle inside the symbol.  If it's the power supply can someone direct me to where I can buy it?

  Thank you!

  Thank you Dean.  I did what you suggest already, several times, but always the MB connection didn't feed fans.  So, I plugged the CPU fans directly to the PSU.  Also, I went to the bios and removed warning if the CPU fan fail.  The system is currently working as if it was brand new.  I will continue to work on the CPU to connect fans directly at the Mo because that's the way it suppose to be.  Thanks again for taking the time to answer.

• Help! Blackbird 002 - 01b makes horrible noise when starting

  I have a Blackbird 002-01 b with a card mother eVGA 780i NV. When I flip the switch on "on" at the back of the power supply, LED MB internal lights up, but nothing on the front. It will not be powered by the power button, but I have to use the power button on the motherboard. As it starts, there is a strong ongoing high tone that does not stop.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you!

  Hi id355, glad to hear you are making progress. You can check the cables on the HDD and the DVD player. Make sure that the hard drive is connected to the first port on the motherboard sata and DVD player is connected to the second track, if these are the only drives in your system.

  You must then enter the BIOS and make sure the first boot device is the DVD player and the second boot device is the SATA hard drive...

  If the operating system is installed on the SATA hard drive and it is intact and non-corrupt, and there is no CD or DVD disc in the optical drive, the system should start on the hard disk and the desktop computer.

  I hope this helps.

• Wiring and test of the Blackbird 002 video card fan

  I have a Blackbird 002 I bought directly from J & R.  Intel processor (i5 or i7), Vista 64-bit, dual NVIDIA 9800 GT cards.

  It is a great machine for a few years, but after several sessions with torches recent I recently that I booted up and it entered into VGA mode with an error «could not load graphic drivers» Windows

  I tried a clean install of NVIDIA driver but the same result on reboot; Mode VGA and no NVIDIA display options.

  I think one of the 9800 GT cards is dead.  So I opened the case and noticed the top, main card has been connected to both the power supply and a smaller type of connection, 2 white square pins.  I deleted the SLI connector and the power of these two cards, one of them removed from their slots and put the card back in top housing of the SLI.  I started upward and the machine starts normally - no error only VGA, NVIDIA Control Panel with no SLI option (as expected b/c that the 'bad' card remained uninstalled).

  Unfortunately with the single card installed the fan runs constantly and the card works extremely hot.  This happens without any games or from any application - simply slowed down, the fans run constantly and loudly.

  So I have two questions:

  (1) how determine if one of the fans in the case does not work properly?  I think this may have caused the first card to die and can be the cause of the card to run hot.  Looking for a way to review all case fans, check each working properly and troubleshoot as needed.

  (2) what is the additional connector to the first graphics card - connector 2 pin white square, and how to disconnect?  I have been unable to pull the connector of the card first, so it remains plugged in despite the fact that the card remains out of the slot.  I see a connection open white, small square on the map left, but I am unable to disconnect the dead card.  I think that it may also have something to do with the remaining card run hot, because it can be a power supply fan, that I am not aware.

  I simply into a new map (thinking that the GeForce GTX 570) but I'm afraid that she also only will burn quickly if a case fan is dead or if the connection of the second, smaller remains plugged into dead cards.

  Any feedback is very appreciated.

  two drivers of white pine is for sound hdmi so it is not necessary to be connected and can only be removed the pins on the map. 9800 gt cards run hot and the fan is cheesy on them. eVga precision tool allows you to monitor the time of the video card and adjust the fan speed. It is unlikely that one of the three fans died, but it's pretty easy to check the two top fans of the page and see if they are rotating. the third fan is left of the hard drives, so you'll have to see if this one works by removing some of the hard drive platters and watch. It feeds of cold air in the compartment of vga. You can also check the fan speed in the bios. I'd be surprised if you have a bad case fan. Here are the specs for the fans of the plant:

• Expiration of the Windows 7 upgrade option!

  Hi, I bought a Toshiba laptop a few months before Windows 7 came out, making sure he had a Windows 7 upgrade option. I didn't upgrade when W7 came out because there could be problems with a new version - obviously I thought that I would wait to see how it was received. In any case, a friend of mine convinced me the other day that it is much better than Vista and I had to upgrade, but now I thought that there was a time limit on the upgrade option, and it expired on 28 February - last Sunday! I can either spend - I missed the boat. I called the customer service, but all they could do was repeat what the web page - the option has expired so far go.

  I'm not at all happy about this because at no time I tells me that there is a limit of time on it. He didn't say it in product information, or outside of the box or what be provided inside the box. I had no idea that I had to do before the end of February for this - if I did I would have done it.

  As far as I'm concerned, I paid for Windows 7. The upgrade option came as part of the cost of the laptop without any mention of a deadline. Toshiba can not see it like that, but it's a reasonable person would believe according to the information provided. Did someone else upset about this? I hope posting here will inspire the action without me having to be made to the small claims court. There is no way that this may be eligible under the law of consumption. Imagine a person selling a book token that had a period of 6 months without telling them and without printing anywhere on the token! That may not be legal.

  If all goes well, there will be a few of us to exert pressure on this issue.

  Luke.

  Hello

  I have ordered the Win7 upgrade kit at the right time and now use Win7 on my Satellite A300.

  What I can say is that this forum is nothing but forum users and here you won't find any option just official statement by people like you and me.
  Another thing, this downloadable image. As far as I know that something like that can not be downloaded.
  What you can do now is to buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version of Win7.

  I don't know what model of laptop you have, but all new laptops are supported Win7 and you can find all the important factors, tools and utilities on Toshiba download page.

• Mini 210 help with upgrade options

  I have a mini 210-1142CL

  Someone has updated the motherboard on this model and if so, is it really make a difference in performance.

  Upgrade options are also somewhat confusing.

  The mini works fine for me and before that pitch for a newer model, wanted to explore options of upgrade of it for at least a dual processor at the fastest speed it can handle.  Right now, it is running.  Have disk space enogh with 128 GB of free space, 1 GB of RAM.   Running a 1.66 GHZ N455 chip.

  Not sure if a 1.5 GHZ dual chip will really make a substantial difference, or if it's time for new technologies.

  Thank you

  Stan

  Atom processors were a dead-end. However, the N550 1.5 ghz dual was one of the best. A bit like the world above 'little person' but still a honor:

  http://cpuboss.com/CPUs/Intel-Atom-N550-vs-Intel-Atom-N455

  Just to put it into perspective, here is a graph of the N550 vs some real processors.

  http://www.cpubenchmark.NET/CPU.php?CPU=Intel+Atom+N550+%40+1.50GHz

  I saw the N550 motherboards for $45 on eBay. Performance is perhaps 30% better than the single core 1.66.

  Your best upgrade is to install the 2 GB of RAM.

  If you feel compelled by the whole thing of netbook, I'd get a new laptop. The technology comes from the netbook to be a reference in the calculation of the story. Good idea at the time. A good current smart phone probably has as much computing power.

• T400 upgrade options

  Hello

  I have a T400 (7417CTO) and looking for possible upgrade options.

  I know that some of the options available to drive HARD and memory. But I / m don't know for sure on the following...

  11 b/g wireless LAN Mini-PCIE III 11/n?

  I can replace the modem with a different card as wireless USB etc. ?

  TIA

  You could spend a T9900, which is the highest specification Core 2 Duo CPU.

  The best available WLAN adapter is the 5300, which requires three antennas in the screen; you need to install the yourself third or potentially borrow one of 3G ones.

  The Turbo and Wireless USB memory modules are interchangeable and are sitting under the letter B area of the keyboard.

  You can get a webcam, BT, etc if you don't have them, but that involves disassembly of the cover.

• No upgrade option given when you try to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium with version complete DVD

  I am trying to upgrade to Windows 7 on my Lenovo x 200 tablet which is currently under Vista 64-bit.  My first attempt was with a version of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit which, once started let me choose the upgrade option but then I notified (obviously) that would work to upgrade Vista 64 bit to 32 bit 7.  Since I also have a DVD of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, I moved forward and put this disk to try to upgrade.  However, when I run the Setup it goes right to the choose what partition I want to put a new installation, do not allow me the upgrade option at all.  Why is this and how do I fix this if I can do an upgrade rather than a new complete installation then I won't lose all my programs and others and end up with a folder of big 'windows.old '?

  Which edition of Windows Vista are you attempt upgrade from?

  If they editions do not match, you will not be able to make a place in the upgrade:

  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

• ORA-39700: database must be opened with the UPGRADE option

  Hello
  Let me explain the scenario.
  I have the oracle with 11.2.0.2 binary. This House is shared by multiple database (around 15 of database).
  Now, I must apply the PSU 5 for one of the database (allows to take the name of the test).
  So I installed 11.2.0.2 new home in the same server and applied the PSU-5 for thati oracle new home.
  I copied the spfile and password at home girl new oracle, associated to the TEST database. Now when I try to start the DB with option to boot he asks me to open the DB with UPGRADE option.
  
  Why should you start the DB with upgrade option because he was running with the same version in old House as well?
  
  I run catupgrd.sql once more?

  PSU patches usually do not require the database to be opened in UPGRADE mode. The obvious explanation is that the source database is not 11.2.0.2 but something lower.
