Randoom Boot after water Dammage

It's so weird.

I took my Macbook Air out after water damage.  I saw indicators of submersion.

The keyboard is released.  No problem. It starts, it starts in full operating system, works fine, but then if I arrested him, (re - not start - that works), the fan starts to turn, towers starts, then stops, leaves for a while, stops again, etc..

Now if I remove the battery and the power cord and let it sit for half an hour or more, it will start again as if nothing happened!  Right in the operating system.  But God forbid, it stops.  Then he must sit without him to once again, at least a half hour.

How can I know the mobo to quit SMOKING is a baby, it is very good indeed?

Steven

This obviously isn't very well!

Do check it out at your nearest centre of the Apple.

  • Pavilion dv6-3225dx: laptop fails to boot after upgrading RAM.

    Hello

    Recently, I tried upgrading my laptop RAM 8 GB which is max you may have to wait. The RAM sticks were (x 2) DDR3 4 GB Samsung 1600 12800 mhz 1.35v. The system has detected the new RAM, showed the new memory and even spent the memory test. But this isn't the windows startup. I tried to clear CMOS. But without success. Do not let me windows. BIOS version is up to date (F29). Is there any setting for this?

  • IPhone 6 s life after water damage

    So my iPhone 6s fell in the tub (I still feel stupid) and after doing all the steps and put it in the rice that I tried to open it a thirty hours after I put it in rice. The phone open, fortunately, but I noticed that it took a little longer to power and power off. He also had a bright diagonal stripe on the screen which I guess was the water so I put back it in the rice therapy. Anyway, my main question is, is the power on and put off the power of the issue or the problem of screen I mentioned something I have to worry?

    You should worry about corrosion. Unfortunately, the iPhone is not waterproof. You're lucky if it still works after contact with water. Usually, phones and water do not mix, and water damage are not covered by the warranty. Corrosion has already begun.  You must schedule an appointment of genius at the Apple Store

    to assess the level of damages. They will offer you the best solution.

  • Unable to boot after the update

    Nice day. Today I installed an update, but my power is out (are lucky me).

    Now my player starts and takes forever but expires and stops. I started in utility mode to reinstall el Captain but it shows my drive as locked. So I go to utilities to try to unlock the he but no hard drive does not appear (even if they do when I'm trying to reinstall from the web).

    I have a TM backup but it cannot find all the disks, so I can't pick it up to do a restore.

    An option or patches? Boot hd is in a year.

    Thx for any help

    Network reinstall of El Capitan

    1. Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime, press Command + Option + R until a globe appears.
    2. The Utility Menu appears in 5 to 20 minutes. Be patient.
    3. When the load utility Menu select install OSX.
    4. Click the continue button.

    This should reinstall OS X on the existing system without erasing the disc.

  • Windows 10 can not boot after installing the Bootcamp drivers

    I have an iMac late 2013 (21.5 "), and I just got 10 Windows so that I can install it using bootcamp. I spent a good part of two days trying to get Windows to work with installing bootcamp, but no matter what I do, the result is always the same. If I let bootcamp install its driver (as he wants when you start first in 10 Windows after installation), Windows will crash before loading fully at the next startup. He comes to see the windows logo pop up with the loading circle spinning around for a second, until what the circle all the sudden stops. After that, it restarts and I hear the iMac from sounds (this much quieter time for some reason any) and then it does the same thing. The third time that it restarts, it starts the automatic recovery mode and I get caught for the advanced boot menu. After letting Windows reinstall itself, it works fine except that it lacks some of the display driver (I can't adjust the brightness) and I also can not use the function keys on my apple keyboard, or the magic mouse at all.

    I tried to reinstall OS X El Capitan and then repeat the installation for Windows. I tried with the driver OS X Downloads for me in Bootcamp (version 6.0), and I've also tried using those newer that Apple offers for download on their site (Version 5.1.5769). All attempts of the result of facilities Bootcamp in crash of boot even when Windows is restarted.

    Windows is still usable, I just think it would work as it is supposed for a Mac wish. Why the bootcamp drivers break 10 windows? Has anyone else had a similar problem? If so, any suggestions?

    Thank you

  • A lot of problems with the battery after water damage

    Hello! I dropped my iPhone 16 5s in toilets and pay a repair man local £30 to repair rather than £205 from Apple.

    He managed to get the phone to run, but now I have the following problem:

    1. phone overheating and tells me to cool before I can use it.

    2. in the use of the app from tesco to run errands the other day, he went to blue screen and restarted on every 5 minutes.

    3. the witness of the life of battery does not work and if you re - start, he recorded a good level.

    4. all supported, he constantly re-boots.

    Help, please.

    This time, take it to Apple and pay what it costs.  Water damage to a phone apparently can leave dry on minerals on the contacts so that a simple drying will not work unless your technician who knows really what to do. the only problem is that if the phone was opened by a third party, that apple may bother on considering watch.

  • Satellite Pro A40 does not start after water spilled on it

    Hello

    I have a problem with the laptop of my companion. After she pours water on her, she has stopped working (no surprise really lol). I took it to pieces, right down to remove the motherboard to try to find the fault. Now when the AC is connected and batt is in place, NIP of the led, same thing happens without batt.

    BUT the computer does not light when you press the power button. Im guessing that it is a hardware failure, since water isn't really best friend elecrtics, but I was hoping someone else might have other ideas/solutions?

    I searched the toshiba site and found nothing on this laptop.

    Any help is very appreciated!

    Hello Danny

    You are absolutely right. It's probably hardware failure and I fear that the motherboard must be replaced. I recommend you contact Toshiba service partners in your country and look for info on the repair and costs.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite MX30: After water spill laptop without the display starts

    Hello

    I have a portable mx30 satellite and the problem is at some point, someone had poured a liquid any on the keyboard, I think he could have water.
    in any case I noticed that the laptop starts not after that, and yes it was still plugged into the power outlet so im guessing it could cause a short circuit and blew a chip.

    I took it apart and noticed that there was a build up of dirt where the spill was of course. So I'm taking a few q-tips wall and carefully cleaned it on using a small amount of contact spray.
    I waited several hours to make sure everything was dry and have still no splash screen, because it was not before.

    However the laptop turns on and stays on with the power supply (no display) and without battery in. If I put the battery and plug it starts (no display) it remains on during a few seconds then turns off.

    I think that the screen could be due to the failure on the system board or the memeory module failure.

    anyone else has any ideas.
    Thank you

    I know it isn't going to be very useful for you now, because it looks like it's been a while in this condition. Electronic devices are often more durable than we imagine when they are subjected to the wicked as the water damage. The trick is usually to remove all batteries, unplug the sector, remove as much as possible without breaking, dry as much as you can with a towel (if it was something sticky like coca cola, you can wipe with water cold Kettle), then let all the pieces on the night under a lamp placed at about 12 inches apart. Back, then try it, but ask someone to hold a wooden broom handle to push you away from electricity, so everything passes from kaka.

    If you have gunge, there's a chance it's supposed to be there, a sort of dough, and you can not to he will wipe away. If there is no obvious or not obvoius of water, hide between the display cable (which can resemble a 35mm film) try pulling away with toilet paper and very gently clean contacts you will see that surround it.

    The other thing you can do is check that no cables are disconnected during disassembly and reassembly. Give all that he received a tugboat then disassemble a push strong but soft back in, or if you can pull things out and push them in all the better. Word stress is SWEET.

    Chances are good, that'll cost you money.

  • No boot after factory reset device

    Hello dear forum members.

    I have a problem with my Satellite L50D-B-15Z p/n: psule.

    So I decided to return to the original factory condition. After that he finished recovery, I pressed the finish. The laptop is turn off by itself and not restarted. So I pressed the power button and a massage popped up on the screen and no boot device. In the bios the drive hard toshiba is present, secureboot is activated.

    Any suggestion?

    I guess you choose bad option and I think the whole HARD disk is now deleted. I guess also that you did not create recovery media, right?

    In any case, what you can do now is to order the original recovery media and install original recovery image designed for your laptop model.

  • Y430A can not boot after memory upgrade

    OS: VISTA HOME PREMIUM 32-BIT
    CPU: P7350
    MEMORY: HYNIX DDR2 667 2GB

    I added a 2 GB Kingston ram on the connector 2

    First of all, it can be the start and connect to windows,

    but after a while, the system of suspension or the SCREEN BLUE DEAD shows,
    He cannot even get into the bios screen when I reboot it

    but it can be boot up if I remove and reconnect the memory

    Sometimes the machine can be restarted and works correctly, except if once I turn it off

    I tried to exchange the slot 1 and 2 with 2 x 2 GB,

    and also replace with 2 x 256 MB Hynix memory.

    but it does not work.

    The new memory is not faulty or is not compatible because it works very well if it autonomous.

    In short, if I install 2 x 2 GB memory, the system may start only once.

    Is it the BIOS problem or it's my mistake?

    Please help and sorry for my bad English.

    Thanks in advance.

    This is perhaps due to the incompatibility of the modules of RAM, working together. If Yes, than to change only the modules will help.

    Also looks like Y510 behavior when it was a fresh model - Y510 all were not able to manage two RAM modules. Update the BIOS helped. For now no new BIOS for Y530/Y430, so will have to wait.

  • Pavilion dv7: boot after ram update loop

    Hi all

    IM owner of laptop HP Pavilion dv 7. It has 4 GB of RAM (a single module of 4 GB) so I decided to uprgade it. I bought another 4 GB module as its specifications described in (different manufacturer installed one), put it in my book and since then I can't start Windows.  After turn on, boot menu started, that shows the loading screen windows with HP logo, but in a few seconds the screen goes black and everything started again. Startup Repair do the same thing. BIOS showed I have 8 GB of RAM. Any ideas what is wrong? I've seen a few topics with the same problem but no solution how to fix it.

    Thank you

  • Not able to boot after that windows update, just trying to install the number 3 setting 3, and then restart the computer. With the help of Windows Vista SP2

    Friday morning I wasn't able to boot my computer more. When I start my computer it won't seek to set a parameter nr 3 of 3. And then it restarts again. My computer tried to install some windows update settings the day before with no success. I Don t remember what it was. I got Vista SP2

    The same problem happends to my computer from friends four days, after she start a windows update installation. But it has solved its problem by using the Windows installation CD and use the repair tool.

    For me, my Windows installation CD I got from Dell does not work. Not the tool repair or startreparation. And I have no reference system to return.

    What should I do? I don't want to reinstall windows again, I have a lot of information on the computer I need to.

    All the world has noticed this problem?

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    See you soon.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If the ISP above Mathods to solve your problems, save your data using one of the methods below, and then reinstall Windows:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1 in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

  • How can I repair the BCD boot after a recovery on my W1-810 error

    Hi all

    I have a Tablet W1-810 for use with Win10. After a few months of its use, the system is more able to start. Only this message appears on a blue screen:

    Recovery
    Your PC needs to be repaired
    The Boot Configuration data file is missing some information required.
    File: \BCD
    Error code: 0xc0000034

    I found that this error may occur sometimes, and what is need to do to fix it (some commands in the shell of the collection). But unfortunately the Tablet has a single usb port, and I wasn't able to connect also a keyboard while I'm starting on a USB key. Also a double connector OTG with separate power supply did not help, because it seems that then the boot process has not worked from the USB. Unfortunately in the recovery of Windows (win PE or Win RE) is not avalible OnScreenKeyboard, I've not found so far a way to solve this error of BCD.

    I hope someone here has an idea for that
    BR

    MP

    The most simple solution is to plug in a USB hub you can do multiple devices on a port. You can't really get into recovery without the recovery image options, and requires the USB connect. At this point in the boot sequence, there is no bluetooth stack and the thing of the BIOS to use the volume buttons to scroll a list has been disabled. Something like this might be overkill, but the price is reasonable. If you think you might want to connect an external HD or DVD at some point, grab one with its own power supply instead of one unpowered. It is not too much more.

  • I can't boot after installing the latest win xp updated system - missing or damaged/system32 hal.dll

    I have win xp and that you have installed the latest updates 7 system - now I can't start.

    I get the message:

    Windows didn't start because what follows is missing or corrupted /system32/hal.dll

    I don't have a CD system - which can do? everything I read said to alter, copy, etc., but since I cannot start, I can't do it all.

    Help me please, thanks

    XP trying to tell you that it cannot find the file.  It is extremely likely that the hal.dll file is really missing or damaged (XP just cannot find it).

    You should not have the Windows XP installation CD for this problem.

    It is very unlikely that the manufacturer will be able to you provide a XP installation CD, but contact them if you wish.

    What would you do if YOU were the manufacturer?  Communicate with yourself?

    The instructions in this link to replace the hal.dll file are bad, bad, bad.  If you follow them, you will need to replace the hal.dll file, but it will not be the correct hal.dll file.  There are 7 possible hal.dlls on the Windows XP CD, and check out the generic hal.dll file won't be one you need unless you run a virtual machine.  Clearly, the technical support engineers have never actually solved this problem.

    Notice that the thread is not marked as 'response' by the original poster, but by a moderator of the Forum after a period of 5 to 10 days of inactivity where some MSE posted a link to a few articles in the KB (this is how things work here).

    You should start by making a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console and run chkdsk /r first just to be sure of the file system NTFS is not damaged.  Then see if you can start after that (maybe it won't).

    THEN, you must use the Recovery Console to rebuild your boot.ini file.  I would like to rename the file c:\boot.ini first then you don't rebuild on top of the afflicted (this part is missing from the article).

    I can't understand why Microsoft support engineers seem unable to display instructions to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console.

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton and Spybot.
    AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    Here's how to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console:

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    If you still have the same problem (likely), then the value rebuild your file c:\boot.ini as article says here:
