    Redchecker,

    There is no such thing as 'old' updates. They are there to protect against a vulnerability or provide updates of the o/s. withdrawal defeats the purpose of them being there.

    My computer is so messed up! I'll tell you the whole story, please bear with me. OK, I came from work (16 years) and my father came to me and said, "your computer does not light, I have was to unplug the internet from behind." And of course, it does not. He would flash on and off very quickly every time, I pushed the power button. I solved this problem by discovering that when my father pulled the cord in the back, that one of the pimples on my motherboard popped to the motherboard touch the metal casing essentially shorting the motherboard, whenever I turned on. So I took everything out and put it back to find the power supply, I have currently failed now of all the short circuit or something because whenever I put in market system it would boot then restart and restart saying something anti-surge protector be activated because of a messed supply power. I went and bought a new and better. So, I solved this problem. Now a new problem happened, now I can't get past the windows loading screen as it freezes. So I reset CMOS to see, it did nothing. Then I tried to boot from the DVD, Windows 7 Home Premium only to find would be frozen when the (Windows Logo) orbs paths crossed 4 color. Then, I entered safe mode and was able to get the Windows 7 Installer and install showing. I went to remove my old partitians containing Windows 7 on my 60 GB SSD Intel Maple Crest 330. I would Setup then it and everything was fine until it has passed the first step and restarted the 'service' screen how it would freeze again. I then went in command promt and formatted my SSD to clear all. (Oh I also forgot to mention I tried Startup Repair tool, it did not work) I then tried to go back to the Windows install screen, but I couldn't get him no matter what I did.

I tried to connect the CD/DVD writer in different SATA ports. I don't know what else to do! Please help, help, help! Thanks in advance!

    A short circuit on the motherboard off short circuit on the food, you're lucky if everything works as it should.

    Defective material, irrespective of the reasons why, will make it almost impossible to install Windows.

    I suggest to use the warranty of the manufacturer of your motherboard and get it replaced. Then you can start from scratch, make sure that when you pull the power plug, it does not have one of the motherboard standoffs come off accidentally.

    When you install the motherboard next, ensure that you set up correctly and to ensure that the case sides are mounted safely because they add a lot of integrity to the case, bending and causing the motherboard to get in touch with everything that it should not stop...

  • Should I keep the TIME for VCOPS?

    Hello

    I'm new to VCOPS.

    I successfully import the EGGS and set up the VCOPS on an independent ESX host (as advised by other scholars).

    When I add ESX host on the cluster, I think that the TIME for VCOPS is missing (in other words, I get only 2 VM - UI VM & VM analytics.  I wonder if she should be OK or not?

    Thank you

    TonyJK - the 2VMs will probably work OK until you stop network is reset, or another such event occurs.

    The VM "UI" needs to know the IP address of the "Analytical" VM and it get to it through metadata VAPP (which, in your case, are destroyed).

    So if you have the license of DRS, better enable and redeploy the VAPP so that everything is OK

  • Should I keep this old adapter?

    Hi all

    While spring cleaning, I came across an old adapter: Googling the model number, I know it's a power adapter power charger Julie APEJ004312. But I don't remember which computer I used it with and Googling didn't offer any information.

    I don't want to throw out if it is compatible with one of the older machines, that I keep on hand. I don't want to keep it if it's useless.

    Can someone tell me what the adapter is compatible with and help me understand if yes or not I still need it? Thanks for any help!

  • Should I keep my xmp files after converting my raw files to DNG?

    I created the original Lr to automatically build the xmp files.  Recently, I decided to go with the dng files and converted all my raw files to DNG.  I can now delete all my files xmp and change my setting of Lr, so the xmp files are produced is no longer automatically?

    YES, you can do it. Lightroom never made use of the XMP files anyway.

    I can now delete all my files xmp and change my setting of Lr, so the xmp files are produced is no longer automatically?

    If you change this option in Lightroom, your changes and metadata are NOT written in the DNG file. I just want that you very clear on this point.

  • Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E. Should I keep or not?

    Hello

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E. It came pre-installed with Vista and also a DVD to upgrade to windows 7 Professional (that I installed).

    I tried to start the machine this morning, but for some reason it wouldn't start. All that's happened is that the initial toshiba screen appears, followed by a black screen frozen (showing underscore in the top left corner).

    The thing is that I have seem to have been able to solve this problem, but I do not understand how and why this happened!
    The issue seems to be related to the battery. At first, I tried to boot up the laptop (with only the battery connected) however it would not start. I don't think this has nothing to do with the amount of battery charge, because it had more than enough in it. I then tried to start it with just the power cable (and no battery). For some reason any that seemed to do the trick, and the laptop has been able to start. The laptop has now also boots when battery and the attached cable.

    Why is this happening?
    I am interested to know, is because this laptop already has given me a few problems. The laptop also bought very recently, so I can still return it for a refund (which I seriously think!).

    What should I do guys? Any help/advice you give to this topic would be highly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Jay

    > All that's happened is that the initial toshiba screen appears, followed by a black screen frozen (showing underscore in the top left corner).

    Underscore flashing in the left corner means that the BIOS battery was empty or something wrong with the HARD drive (possibly BIOS didn't find the right source of start-up)

    I recommend access to BIOS and set it to the default value. Save the changes and try to start the device again.

    You should also keep the laptop connected to the mains for about 24 hours and the laptop should be ON as well.
    This will help the CMOS battery.
