M2N78 - failure of SATA, possible solution?

I was working on a PC with the formidable m2n78 - the motherboard which had the common failure of sata controller.  I thought of an idea to use a PCI express sata based leave the machine working again.  Has anyone tried this before? I borrowed a Highpoint 620 controller card to test with, but am curious to know if anyone has tried this before.

Shad0guy,

It has been tried. Their answer is 'NO '. Read # 2 page . You can read all the pages 30 + for any other attempt.

  • Firefox prompts to save passwords of websites. The key to the Password Manager icon appears on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window asking if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions

    I installed the latest version of Firefox on my laptop (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The thing is that firefox prompt to save passwords of websites. I'll explain you a little more away with an example: suppose I load www.gmail.com. When I login, the password manager key is displayed on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window which would ask if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions. It is true that when I restart firefox with disabled modules (safe mode), password manager works fine. But I don't really use Add-ons that could prevent firefox to save passwords. I disabled all add-ons and ran firefox in normal mode, but the password manager does not work yet. Please keep in mind that I tried everything and that any post not published so far describes a similar problem to mine case. Consider that I have the same I have configured the entire system from the beginning. The problem appeared again from the first time I launched firefox. At that time, I had not installed any antivirus software and there is no add-on with firefox. Hope someone can give me a valid solution...

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    It is possible that there is a problem with key3db and signons.sqlite files that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.

    Rename signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can add .old files (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) names or move them to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

    You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

    If that worked, then you can delete the renamed files that are no longer needed.

  • Ink Deskjet F4580 HP60 horizontal lines, tried all possible solutions

    I have a HP Deskjet F4580 (old, I know) who has been sitting in my closet for about a year. I just bought a total amount of new ink for it (and probably paid more ink than the printer's worth), but while the black ink works fine, color ink does not work, send me white lines through the bands of color on every possible test or diagnostic page that I could possibly print. I cleaned the cartridges, clean the contacts, reset the printer, run the Print nozzle cleaning and run alignments. I'm on the tipping point of dreaming all violent means that I could possibly throw this printer in a way that would make the $75 I spent on ink is worth it. ALL suggestions are welcome, but I have all my scowering prowess tech past the internet for clues, so please do not suggest a forum search. What baffles me the most, is that since several cartridges do not work, I guess that the problem to be with the printer itself, but the black cartridge works fine.

    Thank you all,.

    Ryan

    I would say that the troubleshooting steps described in the paper here.  When you print a diagnostic page as on the solution six are there lines across the three colors in the same place?  If yes the problem is almost certainly an electrical contact between the printer and cartridge or a failure.  To remedy this, I suggest to clean the contacts of the cartridge and printer as shown in the document here.  (It is a different model, but the procedure is the same.)

    If this does not resolve the issue please scan and post you printed the diagnosis page.  Black information serial number in line 11. privacy.

  • I don't want to "choose a topic" and wasting my time in the hunt for a possible solution. I've tried for 2 hours. help me directly. I'm in a rush.

    Firefox no longer works with google or any other search engines. When I try to open a new page, I get the message of safety certification unworthy of trust, but contrary to the STATEMENT IN THE FAQ SECTION OF MOZILLA TECH SUPPORT, IT IS No. CHOICE to add A SITE or MAKING of EXCEPTIONS.

    I work from home on this computer, and your response slow (I tried to get in touch with you for more than 2 hours via your site and facebook) cause me serious financial difficulties and trouble with my client. I hope my question here entering will finally get a response, in ENGLISH, with specific instructions on what to do. I don't want to be redirected to other FAQ, or get a bunch of techniques of doublespeak. I need a REAL PERSON to guide me through the fix. I'm not a computer geek, I just want the thing to work, and since put firefox on my computer I had many problems. I did my best to correct others, but I prefer to JUST DO MY JOB, not someone else.

    I'm waiting for your solution. as I wait I can't do my work..., so...

    great news. Earlier all completed scans and I did a reboot... seems ok now. Thanks for the help. Sorry to shout it out and the curse (you do not hear the curse, but I did).

  • Failure of SATA 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM

    Hello, never posted before, so this is. My i - mac 2010 hardrive failed.

    I would like to get a replacement can anyone point me to a reliable source... For a good replacement hardrive if you please. I think also, apparently the hard drive must be SATA II, not III. Those from my local computer store seems to be III SATA, SATA III does not work?

    I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction. Also, I'm in the United Kingdom. If a British supplier would be great. Thank you very much.

    My first suggestion is to make an appointment with the Apple Genius Bar for the service. If you need a Apple Store - find a store - Apple. Check first to see if they can replace the drive for you. Unless you know how to disassemble your iMac and fix, I wouldn't recommend that you try. In regards to a disc, you should look into disk utility to see what is the serial number and the model for the wrong drive, if you can. Good replacements are made by HSGT. You may need a special connector to replace the disk temperature probe or your fan runs at full speed all the time. Looking for more information and tutorials at OWC.

    Almost all SATA III drives are compatible with SATA II disk controllers. They will work unless the model States that is not backward compatible.

  • Is there a possible solution to this age-old problem which graphics disappear when the browser window is resized?

    example: www.satlinker.de
    If the browser window is smaller than the content, the header image seems well.
    My css stylesheet looks like this:

    #banner {
     padding-left:10px;
     text-align: left;
     font-weight: bold;
     border: 1px solid #000;
     background: transparent url(/media/header.svg) top left no-repeat;
     height: 70px; /*workaround to adjust width*/
     -webkit-background-size:100% 100%;
     -moz-background-size:100% 100%;
     -o-background-size:100% 100%;
     background-size:100% 100%;
    }

    It has nothing to do with svg, similar problems with png images.
    In earlier versions, height adjustment worked as a workaround, but no more in vesion 17.
    There are various problems like the one described in the net:
    for example Bug 282558 - sized image vanishes on browser resize.
    But I can't find any solution - and this bug is described in 2005!

    I was wrong, it was a problem with the svg format. I tried several other formats, each doing its own problems. I tried cleaning the svg with conversion tools code and finally manually with a Publisher - nothing works. GIF and jpg of other problems, so finally I have found a converter of images to http://www.files-conversion.com/, which produces an acceptable png format.

    I think that the rendering of images needs to be improved.

  • White screen - tried all possible solutions and still no progress!

    I'm not new to the forum of sansa, but I've never posted. This problem has been so stubborn that I took the time to register so I could get help.

    I own a fuze 4 GB black with 2.03.31 firmware version.

    The screen went blank and will not change. All functions of the unit seems normal. I know that this problem has come up with many people and I lived all the pages on this forum about her.

    However, I formatted the "rocket" several times, demoted and updated the firmware (by the sansa updater and manually, both MSC and MTP), and still the problem remains.

    Am I missing something, or it's time to drop it?

    As you obvoiusly discovered lurking around the forum, there are many complaints of the "WSS" (white screen Syndrome) here. Some of the reasons & causes are known, some are not. Some are fixable, some are not.

    There is a user Forum. We have all the answers. Don't get me wrong; I'm glad you signed and welcome in the community. It's a good place and you can learn a lot by interacting with the others here, but...

    There comes a point where you have to call the Pros (in this case, a Support technique SanDisk) and let him handle it. If they cannot find a solution, they can get you set up with an RMA (returned merchandise authorization) and replace the unit for you if it is still under warranty.

    This, in my view, would be this time.

  • Audio problem and possible solution, probook 4530 s, Windows 7 64 bit

    Here is my variation on the theme "no audio".

    This laptop was purchased in early July 2012 has worked well for a few days, then there was no audio output at all - no speakers or headphones via browser, iTunes or any other application.  In Device Manager, I noticed there are two separate features in the 'audio controllers, video and game.  We're "IDT high definition audio CODEC" and the other is simply "high definition Audio Device."

    I searched this forum and tried many suggestions, including the update of the BIOS, driver uninstall/re-install and restore drivers - no luck.  Sometimes I'd get audio, sometimes not.  Now I have disabled the "high definition Audio Device" and this seems to have solved the problem.  I was doing an audio output for the last 24 hours, even after sleep and restarts.

    My question is this: can I just uninstall the "high definition Audio Device?"   This seems to be the origin of the conflict.

    Thanks for your help.

    You have a great day too, Howard.

    You can click on any post feel you better solved the problem. IMO, you pretty much solved yourself with your first message.

    I have to tell you what was the other audio device.

    Just click the box "Accept as Solution" black at the bottom right of any post.

  • One possible Solution to Firefox hangs or crashes.

    I'm going on this problem for months now and I think I can at least solved my problem and I hope it works for others. This isn't a solution at all, and some of you should be able to solve problems with a module update or reset. Throughout the day, that my browser would simply crash and unresponsive. Usually due to problems of Flash and script is unresponsive. I tried to uninstall Firefox and also reset and even Adobe flash to date kept everything to nothing does not. Finally I ended up disabling my hardware accelerator and roll smooth and so far I have not crashed today. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but so far it has been a good sign. I usually crash at least 20 times a day. I hope this works as well for others. Here is a picture of the parameters for people having a difficult time finding.

    firefox options.JPG

    Other two things that I did, and has greatly improved my browsing on the internet were two ad - ons for Firefox. First of all that many people are familiar with is Adblock Plus - surf the web without advertising annoying! Who stopped a large number of these annoying Flash ads that freezes to the top of your browser. And also https://noscript.net/. Who will stop the pages to automatically run scripts. Some pages will look weird in the beginning, but lower right of your browser, you will see an options button. Click it and you will see a list of scripts running. Simply click on the scripts that you want to allow, and the page should appear to normal without the other unnecessary scripts running. To remember it so you no longer have to do the first time of a Web page. Good luck to you all and we hope this helps at least two people with similar problems as mine.

    Verified that disable smooth scrolling has worked for me. Its been three days without crashing. In my case the hardware accelerator did nothing. I fell again. I do not understand why the scrolling smoothly would cause my browser to become numb like that.
