I suggest you try to run the System File Checker. System File Checker tool will solve the problems of missing or corrupted system files on Windows. It determines which file is causing the problem, then replace the file.

  • Satellite U400 - 10L: problem with the start-up & reboot

    Hello

    Well I don't like much about the touchpad overheating but I have a problem. When I restart this mobo instead of activate after a reboot it stays black without any reaction only lower diods, dvd - rom and the display flashes (can't hear fan or hard drive).

    If I press the power button / stop all the icons of diod (ac, pwr, hdd bat) shine up just for a second and new (can't hear the fan hard drive or cpu) computer does not turn on. All this happened only when AC cable is connected to the power if I use just notebook power source battery boots and restart without problems.

    If I remove battery completely from the laptop, once more, I get the same symptoms (cannot start). And the saddest part of this story is the fact that I got brand new Toshiba U400 10 L to the seller and got a new.
    It has the exact same problem.
    As you all probably understand im crazy because in the last two days, I tried really everything, including the BIOS without flashing and the success.

    Well im not sure whats going on, but this could be the problem with the battery or a bad contact?
    Any ideas?
    I would return it back?

    Thanks much for the reply

    Hello

    The behavior of your laptop is really strange and I suppose it might be bound only to a hardware problem.

    A friend of mine couldn't t start the laptop connected to the AC adapter the power adapter is faulty. It was only possible to start Notepad using the battery, and only if the battery was not completely empty.

    I put t know if your AC adapter failures but the authorized service provider should definitely check out the laptop and accessory for laptop (AC adapter).

    Then call the ASP in your country and ask the technicians for later handling.

  • Problem with the start of VMware ESXi 5.0

    I just installed VMware ESXi 5.0 on a new Cisco UCS B200 series blade with two 300 GB hard drives configured in a RAID 1 mirror.  I went through and completed the installation of VMware ESXi 5.0 on this server.  When the installation is complete and the server restarted, he did not initiate the ESXi where I can change the IP address and VLAN.  Instead, I get this text string after the initial boot sequence that is shown in the attachment.  I have a guest who said Shell > do not know why I can not start correctly in ESXi 5.0.  Thank you!  Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    Looks like you boot to the EFI shell. What is the startup policy that you have configured on this server service profile? It should look like the one below.  If there is a problem with the boot order, you should be able to type "EXIT", then enter on the EFI shell to exit the prompt. If your startup is similar to the one below and you still experience this issue, try to downgrade and re - ack the blade.

    Let me know if it helps.

    See the following message to solve the problem of .exe if necessary once you are sure that the system is clean.

    Try Mode safe mode with networking - repeatedly, press F8 that you start.

    The best two methods allow scanners to run and/or AV.exe out of the way or removing.

    Right-click on it and rename it to ZZMbam.COM (or something different than now), then
    Double-click it and run it like this. You can rename it back later. Do the same with others
    programs as needed. Use this method for other necessary - DO NOT ASSUMER one
    program removes all or that there is no other malware.

    2.
    Another method is to use them:

    Use Process Explorer to "Suspend" the process will not stop

    After my computer starts, it loads quickly in the logon section. However, after I give my login information
    the HP computer HP monitor goes black for about two minutes, then the desktop.

    This isn't exactly a "I can NOT LIVE WITHOUT CE SUPPORTS REALLY" but anyway. Since graduating from the programs Windows 8 and I use installed, I ran into a problem. Programs install fine however, sometimes, I find that I try to open the application program / and when I do it is open, but I cannot view it (when clicked) when this happens, I cannot view the content of the programmes, but it is active in the windows taskbar.

    I rebooted, used the Manager of tasks etc... but the program will remain open, but look at one is impossible.

    EDIT: THESE PROGRAMS ARE NOT TO DO WITH THE SHOP 8 MICROSOFT WIN THAT IT IS APPS SUCH AS CHROME/SPOTIFY

    The only soloution I found was to uninstall/reinstall, but I think it's a pain if my Chrome/IE9 was not accessible, I'd be well: limited

  • Problems with the start of the vi using TCP on a cRIO, error code 63

    I'm trying to deploy the 'multiple connections - Server.vi' in examples of TCP & UDP to a cRIO as the startup application. The vi works fine and I can connect with many clients until I have deploy the vi and set it as vi on a cRIO device startup. When the device restarts and I try to connect with the 'multiple Client connections 1(vi)"also found in examples of TCP & UDP, I get"error 63 occurred to TCP connection open. Are there additional parameters that need to be enable to allow TCP as the boot vi?

    I don't know that is the question and I don't have an RT target available to test it, but here's a possibility: property nodes sometimes do not work as expected when you run on a RT system without front panel.  In the case of multiple connections - server example, the first thing that happens is that the VI wrote a false value in the property node.  As explained in the link, this has no effect.  For example, if the default value of the control 'Look stopped' is 'True' the top loop will close after the first run, which will stop the VI, probably leading to the error that you see when you try to connect.

    To resolve this problem, I recommend you remove the 'Missed listening' control completely and change conditions to stop for the two while loops.  You run a compiled application on RT, so unless you will connect using a remote panel, there is no need any façade including the stop button control.

    EDIT: if I have correctly identified your problem, you can vote for this idea: "Warn on the face property node to use when you build a RT".
