Memory will not work Diagnostic tool - black screen

Hello

I'm having a problem with my (relatively) new - an ASUS laptop UX - 21F. It worked very well for the first three months, but only in the last week has crashed several times on me with a BSOD. Unfortunately, Windows (Win7 Ultimate) does not create the memory dump file as it is currently specified to do so. (Yes, I checked, double-checked and rechecked re this parameter.) It simply does not create the image file.) Looking back through the event log, it does not match what is happening just before failure. It seems to be random.
It sounded like a potential RAM for me, so I thought I'd run the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool. I chose restart immediately and... nothing. It restarts, messages and then it is a black screen and high enough system fan wind rising and the system gets hot enough. There is no cursor, or anything like that, and the only thing we can do is to hit the power button (it instantly stops, rather than having to four seconds). When it restarts, the system boots normally into windows.
I tried to access the tool in many different ways and there seems to be no way to enforce. Each way I just get a black screen and a hot computer.
What should I do here? I do a lot of development on this machine and I'm kind of falling ill to endorse things up to four times a day in case it crashes and I lose my job. Should I reinstall the OS and see if the problems go away? Or is there something less invasive than I do?

Download and create the CD to boot from here:

Memtest86 + http://www.memtest.org/

If you have more than one piece of RAM in it, blow an and boot from the CD. If there are no errors, swap out with another room and boot on the CD again.

Look in the event log at the time of the accident and see what are the entries for error there. This might give you a clue as to what is happening.

Is the ' (relatively) new laptop "still under warranty by any chance? If so, you should also contact ASUS or the place you bought it from.

  • Son of anarchy BD Discs will not play on BDX4400 (black screen)

    Hello world!
    Just wondering if anyone can help with the following: I had some problems with the blu - Ray of the BDX4400 player (remote works do not, the reaction is slow, frozen Portal etc.) for awhile, but it was ok with playing DVDs / blu - ray... Up to our days. I come from the Sons of Anarchy box, insert the first disk, and then the screen goes black.

    You can hear the disc turning for a few seconds and the play icon appears but then it's all... Just a black screen and you can't even eject the disc (remote not working do not when it is at this point).
    I tried other discs of this set, but the same thing happens. However, the other DVD / Blu - Ray work. Therefore, I am sure that the player is fine, but maybe im missing a parameter that must be changed...?
    Someone had a similar problem? (I disabled the internet connections and the bd-live function, but not luck)

    The region code is correct and FW is up to date, so this may not be the root of the problem, if all fails, I may have to blame the actual discs, but I have trouble believing that 15 discs are damaged...

    Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, which would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    It is always a stupid situation if everything works perfectly, but not with some discs/disc.
    In case your player works well with the other BR disks that the problem must be with the disks you have.

    Is there a possibility to test the disks on a few other BDplayer?
    You laptop / PC with BD optical drive? Can test you?

    To be honest, what is unclear to me that something can be changed (settings) in this case. Either it works or not.

  • Does not work Z930 satellite - black screen

    Recently, there was a problem with my Z930 and I don't know if it's a damaged screen or if it's something to do with the software. I also use Windows 8 as the operating system.

    Earlier today, the unit was functioning normally, but later it began flickering with a mess of pixels around like a small problem, with black lines rising from the bottom of the screen.

    A few seconds after that cleared up, the whole screen is black.
    It is still on, but there is that a screen white, black - I can't even see the cursor.

    Every now and then the screen flickers as he struggles to continue working. I connected it to a different screen and its typical display showed on the other device, so I'll take a guess that it is a damaged screen.

    Before starting to prepare getting a new screen or even a new device, is possible that it could be something other than a broken screen?

    Because it's strange because I take great care on the screen because it is fragile at first, I didn't hit it or had fluid on-screen, so have break a coup like this is quite strange.

    Hello

    The symptoms described as flicker with a mess of sounds of pixels like a graphics card problem.
    Also the fact that the same symptoms are visible on the 2nd screen, could confirm my assumption that would affect the GPU.

    In the case where the internal screen would be defective, the external screen should work fine, but this isn't the case.

    From my point of few the motherboard so that the GPU must be replaced for fox the problem but of course the laptop everything must be tested by a service engineer before starting to replace all parts.

  • 460CDT: upgrade memory will not work correctly

    Hello

    I have 3 level of memory for the 460CDT updates:
    1 KTT500/128 (128 MB)
    2 PA2042U (128 MB)
    3 PA2040U (32 MB)

    PA2040U works without problem. Memtest86 without errors after 5 hours. KTT500/128 and PA2042U give me every time as many errors in test 5 [movement block, 64 moves]. The system starts with these memorys and recognize their work without error, but windows 98se unstable (errors, mistakes of recistry; a.s.o. due to lack of protection) someone who can help me?

    Hi Leo

    AFAIK the memtest is great and it works with very good accuracy. If there is an error message in 99% of cases the RAM module is defective. Please contact your local dealer and take a new one.

    Don t forget that your device can handle just with 160 MB of RAM. If you want you can also try to update BIOS.

    Good luck!

    Convenience store is included just in case where win you some access as you try to solve the problem.

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
    by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.

    Hello

    Following methods and check if that helps.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    Start your computer in safe mode and check if it starts very well.

    Step 2:

    If the system starts in safe mode, then there would be a third-party software, causing the issue to occur. I wish that you start your machine in a clean boot State. Clean boot helps eliminate conflicts of third party software.

    Note: Follow step 7 to your computer as usual.

    Method 2:

    If this does not help, you can perform System Restore in safe mode.

  • The cutting tool will not work in trying to capture the menu drop-down

    I've recently upgraded to Office 2016 from 2013 and since then my Snipping Tool will not work correctly. I can always capture what I want except for the drop down menus. Eight other users are connected to my network of the company; all Windows 7, all Office 2016 and it works on all the computer but mine. I opened the Snipping Tool, click Cancel (tried to escape, too), and then open the menu drop down, press Ctrl + print screen and nothing happens. Can someone help me?

    I just thought of it myself. Used to work in previous versions using the Esc, then press Ctrl + print screen. Now, it's a little different.

    1. Your screen are preparing to capture you want, with the exception of the drop down.
    2. Open the capture tool and choose the type of capture you want (I use the Rectangle) and now the new part... Choose a delay for however many seconds you have to when you press New when you can open the drop desired down.
    3. Click new. (The capture tool will activate not to but the number of seconds you have chosen late.)
    4. Open your drop desired down and wait for the tool.
    5. Proceed as usual.

    Hope that helps!

  • HP 6520 will not work after changing the black ink cartridges

    Changed the cartridges and now black ink will not work. This is the second or third time only to change the cartridges - did not have a problem before, but of course, it is while the printer was still under warranty. It is now about a year and a half.

    I used all the suggested diagnosis - head cleaned, head aligned, etc, etc, etc, and nothing has helped.

    The black cartridge worked after the swap, but with a few lines do not print or missing--now produces almost nothing.

    Cartridges color was wonderful at the beginning of the troubleshooting process, but now they're starting to not look right - with spare no effort to correct the print head, he seems to be making it worse.

    I guess you wanted to ask how to solve the problem. If then all in Safe Mode you can use system restore to set up Windows to a point when the problem did not exist.

  • Brand of Smartphones blackBerry New 8530 - many pre-installed applications on the Menu screen will not work

    I just bought a BlackBerry Curve 8530 from Verizon.  This is my first BlackBerry and I'm pretty happy with it up here - but by exploring all the features, I encountered a problem.

    So far, under the screen of Menu key, I tried to use V CAST song ID, AllAccess, and Bing.  Every time, when I chose the icon, I was taken to a new page, and you are prompted to accept the terms of the service and download the software.  Then, I waited several minutes for the software to download.  When it was over, he told me it was done downloading and gave me two options: 'OK' or 'run '.

    With V CAST song ID and AllAccess, I chose "Run" and threw on the terms of service / download screen.  I hit the Menu key and tried to select the applications in this way - but nothing happened.  I mean NOTHING.  The screen remained the same, nothing open, NOTHING.  With Bing, I chose 'OK,' to see if it has changed things-, but once again, I've been dumped on the terms of service / download screen, and when I press the Menu button and tried to select the application from there, nothing happened.

    I was able to successfully download and run Blackberry App World and successfully download and run another application here-, but it seems that whenever I try to download and run an application that already appears on the Menu screen, it will not work.

    Everyone knows about this problem before?  Any ideas as much as solutions?  As I said, I'm totally new to BlackBerry, so I would really appreciate it.

    Yes, this is what happened with the app I downloaded successfully via App World.  However, applications that do not work are not there.  (And I don't think they would even if they worked correctly BlackBerry App World, which I was able to download correctly, not included in this issue: he stayed on the home screen Menu and worked when I selected it.)  Thank you, though.
