  • Power went off looking at the TV Media Center. Now whenever I try to watch live TV, the program starts normally but freezes as soon as the audio starts.

    Original title: Media Center 2005 Edition

    I was watching TV using Media Center on my PC HP Media Center m7367c PC (running Windows XP Professional Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3) when the power went off.   Now whenever I try to watch live TV, the program starts normally but freezes as soon as the audio starts.  The audio works fine, but no picture, the small rotating circle of progress hangs and the screen is frozen.  I can click the X (close Box) and the program closes.   I expect there are only one or two corrupt files that need to be cleaned or replaced.

    HP support is to use recovery discs to clear the system and return it to the original configuration.   Given all the software, data and updates, I have to restore, I don't want to go down this road.

    I tried running SFC/scannow but Windows XP system discs are needed and the PC vendors ceased to provide systems with their PC discs there are many moons.  I bought Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3, but he came on one drive and requests SFC disk #3 while parsing.

    I go back to the original driver TV tuner and then updated to the more recent but not joy.  I think that the problem is with a program or file Media Center.  Now when I try to configure the TV signal my cable box is recognized and then as soon as the audio lights, MCE 2005 hangs and the tiny TV screen remains black.

    I expect a file Media Center must be cleaned or reset but before I realize FUBAR I thought that he better come on this Microsoft forum and see if someone who knows what they are doing can provide the solution.

    Hi, Rudy386MS,

    Sorry for the late reply.  Do you have the problem solved?

    If Sfc/scannow solicits the disks, then you have corrupt or missing files whose analysis cannot replace or repair.  The alternative is a complete recovery of Windows.

    Open the control panel and select Media Center

    Click on uninstall

    Select the repair option

    Click next

    Click Finish when you are prompted

    See if that helps.  If not, then the recovery process will be needed

    Startup of HP systems to screen recovery (repair) when you reboot and start typing the F11 key.  According to me, that it gives you the choice to 'Fix' that leaves your files intact or 'Recover' system that will put you back to 'out of the box' condition.

    There is a Recovery Manager in the folder all the HP programs which includes Disc Creator.  You can create your own recovery discs.  I suggest using DVD instead of CD - R.  They allow more memory space.

  • Power supply # power # chassis: off

    Have 4 new UCS chassis in rack. 3 of them have PSU 2 and 4 in a "stopping" State, even if the green light turns on all blocks of 4 power supply into the chassis. All chassis are connected same PDU to the back of the basket, so I know that we have a clean diet.

    I tried adjusting the grid to N + 1 and return to nothing will do. Advice would be useful

    Frame 1:
    General: power supply problem

    On this version, most of the I2C issues have been corrected, but if the chassis has been assigned for a period of time, your I2C may have been congested for a while.

    To clear the I2C bus, you must reinstall the components that use it... Power supplies, fans, and IOM therefore the recommendation would be to:

    1 - Reinstall each fan and power supply (one at a time and wait 3 minutes before hand) upward once again, move on with the next

    2. Remove subordinate IOM, keep it out of the chassis for 5 minutes, drain all power, put it back and wait it comes back before it.

    Make sure that you have network redundancy configured before you do and if you need help or you don't feel comfortable with the process, contact TAC for assistance.

    If this helps, please rate it... If it solves the problem, please mark it as such for future users to take advantage of it too.

  • How to usb power turn off mode 'sleep'? Yes were asked and no, it has not yet responded.

    until someone says "its been answered" and "look at other messages ' u try these directions and let me know if it works. cause I did, and if you're smart enough, I'm sure you can understand my result of posting me my question as well.     I had older versions of windows (xp and 98) and when the computer was put in mode 'sleep' it wouldn't keep turn on/off devices.  Now in windows 7, it's a totally different story. What ould iw as is for the usb power switch off appliances like the old way. Francis IS at ALL possible? because of everything I've seen here, it DOES not work.  No, changing the thing selective usb to allow disabling power management GOLD DOES not work. NO, by checking or unchecking the checkbox in the Device Manager, etc., for the USB ROOT HUB to "allow the device to turn off the power" or whatever it says DOES NOT work either.  All what I want to know is, is possible to do this, turn off the power for something as simple as an external fan or a hard drive will be TURNED OFF like it USE TOO. Please do not post instructions on how to do the 2 steps that I mentioned. Really annoying because it's what keeps popping up for everyone to do and then you see inside people answer "N" T WORK."   And also do without consulting me the manufacturer for support, cause this is the problem of MICROSOFT, is not a problem of the Lim.  A lot of people have this problem, microsoft turns, find something here...

    It is also for period of SLEEP mode. Yes I know he doesn't put into hibernation, and judgment, to my question here. That's the mode 'sleep'. Thanks for all who have comments/instructions USEFUL. Nice day

    Remove the battery for 90 minutes.  Reinsert them.  You may need to do a couple of times.  That will reset the gauge from the battery on the device.

  • Several BSoD errors a day, passing under power and off for about a year now. All seem to be pilot/registry problems. (Alienware X 51 R2)

    For about a year now, I been dealing with errors in the screen and blue on my desktop Alienware X 51 R2. They produce several times when you first start the computer for the day and then work as usual for the rest of it. They tend to happen off and on again, stopping for a month or two and after. I went to many other forums for help with no luck. All of them seem to point to pilot/registry issues, such as PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE. I can never identify the problem, because whenever I think I fixed it they begin again a few weeks later. And this time, he had some freezes that act exactly like a BSoD without displaying the blue screen. Please help, I have no idea what is happening. He will also sometimes starts, beep, cut and repeat up to random point when he decides to work.

    Minidump ZIP

    My wife and I have two machines R2 Alienware X 51 and both machines have started this behavior about a month or two after the expiration of the warranty.

    After several tests it turned out that one of the sticks memory is faulty, although it shows still 8 GB of ram in the system specifications.

    I replaced the two ram machines with kits of Kingston hyperX 8 gb dual channel and both machines worked perfectly since then.

  • Go off & on several times before the monitor turns on. Comp seems to start OK but the problem is with the screen.

    Original title: XP start help please...

    ... are to be turned off & on several times before monitor lights. Comp seems to start OK but the problem is with the screen. Do I have to make a boot disk & if so - HOW?

    Hello

    ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         Did you check the connection of the cable to the monitor?

    ·         Have you tried to update to the latest graphics card and motherboard chipset drivers?

    First, try to connect your monitor to a well known PC, maybe the old laptop that you use now. If the monitor works, the problem is with the video card in your PC. If the monitor does not light, the monitor. It is usually cheaper to buy a new monitor that in order to be an old repaired, unless the monitor is still under warranty.

    Try connecting a monitor well known to your PC. If the monitor works, your old monitor is fried and needs to be replaced.

    If your monitor works when connected to another PC, the problem could be your video card. First, and then you turn on your PC, the power and cooling case fans run they. If they do not, it could be the power supply.

    Then, open the computer case. Before you do anything inside, unplug the power supply.

    IMPORTANT! Touch any metal part of the computer case to connect to the PC. A single static spark can destroy computer circuits.

    If the video card is the type of card that plugs into a slot on the motherboard, remove the screws or attached at the top of the card, remove the card, to manipulate the card by the edges to avoid disturbing the circuits on the card, carefully and re - install the card. Sometimes simply reinstalling the card corrects the problem.

    If this does not work, replace the video card with a card of similar type. Perhaps now is the right time for an update of video card.

    If the video card is integrated into the motherboard, you can install a new card in one of the PCI slots on the motherboard. When the PC starts for the first time, go into the bios and disable the onboard video.

  • at the start, computer turn on and off several times before finally starting

    Product: Hp Pavilion M9177C-B

    OS: Vista Edition Home Premium

    Approximately 2 weeks, when you start the computer by pressing the Start button, blue starting light turns on, then turns off maybe 6 + times before it turns finally for good and then I can hear the hard drives being accuated.  I fear that one of those moments that she not turn for good. So, I took the computer on at all times and just close the devices.

    Hello slodave,

    As you hear hard drives or anything on the spot for a while, it seems that the problem may be due to your diet.

    You can look at the power Panel there should be a light on the subject. See if it shows that it begins well before the computer actually turns on (so it comes at the time 6 + it is turn on/off).

    If the food will then replace just to continue normal operation.

  • Windows will start, the screen starts flashing and then the screen say Logging Off, then restore the screen to the CTRL ALT DEL all other functions will not work.

    Start my computer, it will default to the CTRL ALT DEL screen.  After graduating in the login screen I enter the password.  Windows will start and then the screen starts flashing and the screen say Logging Off, then restore the screen to the CTRL ALT DEL I can boot into safe mode.  All other functions will not work.

    Thank you

    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.

  • Satellite A100 - battery all night while the power is off

    Hello world

    I have a new Satellite A100 and I noticed that when I fully charge it and then turn the power off and remove the plug from the socket, the next day when I stick it back in the socket of the control light yellow says that he is in charge.

    So, I turned on the computer laptop and checked is full battery and it says 94%. I let it finish loading at 100% then it off again and came out of the plug. The same thing happened the next day! He held again!

    I don't know that I did not in Hibernate mode because I checked all the settings and choose Turn Off to turn off the laptop.

    I read on the battery recall, so I searched on the toshiba site and downloaded the program from battery test. The result came out that my battery is not between the serial numbers involved. I even manually checked the number on their list but mine is not supposed to be affected.

    Is anyone having the same problems, or is it normal that the battery itself?

    Please let me know... Thanks :)

    Hello

    It is normal and you should not worry about this. The same thing happen on my Tecra. Please check this Toshiba document on this http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ6301EP000ER01.htm

  • Loud beep and the power on / off power during installation of the operating system 10.11.2

    Someone else did this happen to them? My MacBook Pro (early 2011) making a loud beep sound and the power and turn off several times while he was installing the new os 10.11.2 update this morning? Everything seems to work fine, I've just been caught unawares. I've never had such a thing happened to me in updating my mac. Someone else?

    can happen

    I think the install dialog says that the mac can shut down and put into service once more.

    If its works well it should be good.
