• HP Pavilion Slimline s5304y strange behavior and stops randomly

  To start, here is my card:

  HP Pavilion Slimline s5304y

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1 Build 7601

  AMD Athlon II X processor 2 215

  4 GB of RAM, blah blah blah

  Here are the symptoms:

  -Win7 starts to act strangely, when the keys are depressed they'll keep recording (like that, but forever)

  -Then it will attempt to force the closure but I keep open Word 2007, which will block the closure and I gives me the option to cancel or to force stop word.

  -J' I usually Cancel to see what it does, sometimes it continues to operate normally, sometimes, attempts to stop become more frequent until it ask no more, and Word cannot veto the shutdown request.

  -When I look at the Event Viewer system, he says he is told what USER (me) has launched the stop, as if it were normal.

  -A little more digging in the event viewer application section says that before stopping, "HP Support Assistant Service" had a "PowerEvent handled successfully by the service" with EventRecordID of 10883.

  -Meet system Event ID 109

  Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power

  There is no indication that something went WRONG minidump, no discharges of any sort, sfc/scannow ran own just like chkdsk, memtest, tester of windows 7 and all other diagnostic tools.

  He did it before, but very rarely, so I thought nothing of it (which happened in the spans of the months apart) but now happened several times a day.

  Recent software additions:

  Installing the software and drivers Lexmark Prospect Pro205

  -Updated Nvidia graphics drivers Geforce 6150SE nForce 430 to 8.17.12.9573 and it's Helper service ver 295,73

  What I did to try to rectify the situation:

  -Scanned with each virus/malware free scan in existence - deleted an infected file from Java Java/CVE-2011-3544. O operate. And another unrelated to the advertising program.

  -Updated HP Assistant and Advisor

  -Updated several times with various updates for windows 7

  -Clean the case thought it was overheating, but nope - clean as a whistle, normal running time

  -Good fans checked

  -Extract from food - looked good, constant voltage

  I haven't checked the power extension cables. I heard there is a problem with shorting out on the 24-pin extensions, but I didn't have an extension of 24 pins on the power cables.

  I've heard others have had problems with HP stopping randomly with a strange behavior, so I wanted to see what you guys have to say.

  Could this be problems of power with my house? The wiring is old... Or more likely is a short circuit in the cable/PSU?

  How can I easily repair/test of this theory?

  -All right, so the system restore has nothing but destroy some files, because I couldn't not correctly backup the drive between the random stops.

  However, I found the solution to my problem, that you won't believe.

  Short answer: I replaced the stock HP keyboard (model KU-0841) who seems to have been short.

  The long answer:

  -When the computer kept shutting down even in safe mode after a destructive recovery, I started watching again material.

  -Noticed my typing would sometimes record, sometimes just go crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy (like this).

  -Then comes the keyboard no longer works. Thus, while the veto stops with WORD 2007 and using the keyboard on the screen in Win7, I thought it was a terrible virus - it wasn't.

  -When I unplugged the USB keyboard it's a strange electric 'bzz' sound, like what you hear when static is unloaded. It turns out that the USB port has been be short-circuited by the keyboard.

  On the keyboard and the USB plug was going well, so I don't know who is to blame again, however - if someone is having the same weird problems with events of the power of the nucleus and 1074 with 0x500ff errors-try to check your hardware.

  After replacing the keyboard, everything works perfectly.

• Strange behavior mouse Apple in ESXi VM (Windows Server 2008R2) / ESXi host is of type nested in Fusion Pro 8

  Hello

  my Apple mouse shows strange behavior when I start my VM and click in it.

  Its an ESXi host nested in a virtual machine in Fusion 8 Pro.

  Can someone explain it to me?

  Kind regards

  Roland

  He has always had problems when using nested desktop computers, and it is simply the result of the way the mouse behaves fundamentally and how this position gets interpolated differently with nested windows VMRC.

  I would just connect to the console of the VM (via vCenter) directly from the Mac, with the guest.

  (the 192.168.178.42 would be accessible from the Mac and the VMRC plugin works very well).

• Can help or explain this strange behavior?

  Hi guys,.

  I'm just starting to write a script to extract our VM guest IP information before updates.

  I ran into a strange error that I can't move, or explain, and I was wondering if someone could help me.

  This script (pass vmhost objects to him) translates to display the info of the physical NIC (device and mac), but no info vnic (unit only). If I change the order arounf for the vnic info is displayed first, then the info vnic deisplays correctly (device, IP address and mask), but the bear info is not (only peripheral poster, not mac).

  Begin

  {}

  Process of

  {

  If

  ($_) {

  $_ . Name

  $temp = $_ | get-opinion

  Write-Host " "

  Write-Host "Physical NIC"

  $temp. Config.Network.Pnic | Select device, mac

  Write-Host " "

  write-host "E-cards"

  $temp . Config.Network.Vnic | , Select peripheral, {$_. spec.ip.ipaddress}, {$_ }. spec.IP.SubnetMask}

  Write-Host " "

  }

  }

  I know there are a lot of scripts that do this, so please don't point me to them. I am trying to learn. I know also, aspect is ropey, I'll sort that later. Now, I'm only after the reason for the strange behavior.

  Thanks in advance

  Phil

  You confuse output formatter by sending different types of objects.

  The trainer focuses on the first object to determine how to format for the output of the screen.

  Try adding the out-default cmdlet after both of the Select-Object cmdlets you have in the service.

  $temp.Config.Network.Pnic | select Device, mac | Out-Default

  and

  $temp.Config.Network.Vnic | Select peripheral, {$_.spec.ip.ipaddress}, {$_.spec.ip.subnetmask} | Out-Default

  The out-default cmdlet actually kind of redefines output formatter.

• Strange behavior of cropping & other bugs

  Hello. My copy of Photoshop CS4 has recently started a strange behavior. I'm working on a 17 '' Mac Book Pro to end 2007 running OS 10.6.4.

  This is a screenshot just before cropping in image that I train.

  

  This is the same area after knocking back the harvest indeed. This tiny spec is what remains of my image.

  If I expand this area to 3200%, that's what I see:

  I've never met this before. I restarted Photoshop. I restarted the computer. I was in 20 GB limit of my hard drive, so I released 40 GB of storage space to backup the old files on DVD. My computer is a maximum of 4 GB or RAM. WTF? A bug perhaps related but somewhat independent, with that I had business since empty menu windows in Illustrator and Photoshop in my series of CS4. Opening the window hides in the PS and the swatches in Illustrator and PS resulted in empty menu windows. (The window is there, without tools or controls inside. Just grey.

  Do I need to remove and reinstall or something? Applications can get corrupted?

  Has anyone seen anything like this before?

  Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

  D

  Check the options for the crop tool bar.

  You entered a resolution, and the acreage resulting something tiny, resampled comes from the selected area.

  The tool to reset, or simply to clear the resolution field.

• Firefox crashes (and other strange behaviors) due to gifs

  From a recent update Firefox displayed a strange behavior that surrounds the gifs. Sometimes, after viewing pages with a large number of gifs or several very large gifs, Firefox will do things like not animate gifs, or even do not load the images at all, an and will not stop until I have restart Firefox. What's more concerning is that sometimes in these situations, Firefox will simply hang and stop responding, forcing me to kill the process.
  This page shows the behavior of hanging fairly regularly: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1021843 & page = 21
  It seems more likely to happen when I scroll the page quickly. The behavior persists when I restart Firefox mode without failure.

  39 of Firefox seems to have solved the problem.

  I have a MacBook Air with active FileVault 2012. There is no significant difference in performance. Note, however, that there will be a performance impact until the original encryption is complete and that it doesn't have a way to stop it.

• Strange behavior USB Flash Drive Satellite A100-626

  Hello

  I did install Windows Vista Business Edition on my Satellite A100-626 (PSAA9) following the instructions provided in the Web page of drivers.

  So far, everything works as expected, except for one little (or no) question.

  When I ask Vista to 'Remove hardware safely' my USB Flash drive, a Popup appears telling me to remove it. So far, so good :D

  The only thing is that the flash player is not put out as could be expected and and yellow question mark appears in Device Manager.

  Opening of the question mark can read what follows:

  "Windows cannot use this hardware device because it has been developed to remove safely, but it has not been removed from the computer. (Code 47) To resolve this issue, disconnect the device from your computer and plug it in again. »

  Following the instructions above, the light turns off, lol...

  Someone else met this strange behavior? If so, any solution?

  I tried a few USB flashes that run well on XP and they both do the same thing.

  Thank you, Nuno!

  Hi Nuno

  It's very strange. I have the Satellite A100-504 (comes with Windows XP Home edition). Last week, I installed Vista and all the stuff followed Toshiba document instructions facilities. I use the mouse wireless, external HDD USB web cam. With the help of these external devices together I never noticed a similar behavior.

  You have the same situation with all the USB ports?

• redeclenchables strange behavior digital output

  I created a redeclenchables digital dashboard task (finished) digital output as follows: (in DAQmx C)

  DAQmxCreateTask("",&_taskHandle);
  DAQmxCreateDOChan(_taskHandle,"/Dev2/port0/line6","",DAQmx_Val_ChanPerLine);
  DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming (_taskHandle, "" / Dev2/Ctr0InternalOutput ", _clockRate, DAQmx_Val_Rising, DAQmx_Val_FiniteSamps, static_cast (_sampleCount)");
  DAQmxCfgOutputBuffer (_taskHandle, static_cast (_sampleCount));

  DAQmxWriteDigitalLines (_taskHandle, static_cast(_sampleCount), FALSE,-1, DAQmx_Val_GroupByChannel, _pDigital, NULL, NULL);

  DAQmxCfgImplicitTiming (_taskHandleCO, DAQmx_Val_ContSamps, _numSamples);
  DAQmxStartTask (_taskHandleCO);

  When I run the task without redeclenchables parameter, it output a correct signal. However, if I run with redeclenchables it out almost exactly 2 times faster than normal. For example, a pulse whose width of 10 ms became 5 ms and repeats again to be 2 pulses of 5 ms. This is repeatable, no matter how much or how fast triggers provided.

  My card is PCIe-6363. I do not know what causes this strange behavior, and I hope someone can help on this.

  Thank you.

  It disappears after reset configuration. Might be interesting for future reviews.

• Strange behavior with the function «Help in command line»

  So I do a little playing with the opening of the files compiled help (.chm) with the command-line help feature, and I saw a strange behavior when trying to index multi-level access keywords. According to the documentation, if you set the 'Key' operation, you can enter a value for ' string to search for "to access this section. The more precise help that:

  If this string contains a keyword index, the string must match the key of the index as it appears in the help index file. To access a topic with a multilevel index keyword, enter the keyword of the top-level index, a colon and the keyword of the second level index. Do not separate the elements with spaces. For example, a chain of error codes: GPIB jumps about a subject with a keyword of top-level index of error codes and a second level keyword index of GPIB.

  All right, seems simple enough. Except that when I tried, I couldn't work, even with the example provided. I tried the following simple test:

  

  Opens the help file, but it opens to this page, not to the page ' error codes: GPIB "non-descript. I saw this in 8.2 and 8.6. Anyone have any success with access to a multi-level keyword?

  Note - side

  Curiously, the Index for the help lvconcepts.chm file looks like this:

  

  In other words, the input index text is just "GPIB", but the text that appears in the keyword field is "codes error, GPIB. I'm curious to know how this was accomplished. I decompiled the lvconcepts.chm file and watched the .hhk file, and it is not immediately obvious to me. (By the way, if you try to use "error codes, GPIB" it does not either).

  Hello

  Please contact National Instruments!
  It is a very strange behavior.  I tested out and seen the exact
  same results you are experiencing.  This was reported to R & D (AUTO ID # 130246) for further investigations.
  From what I can tell the a possible workaround solution that we have documented
  in the post of root Canal.  I can't continue to look into this in order
  to see if there is no other workaround solution or a reason why it is
  run in this way.  Thanks much for the feedback!  If
  you have any other questions on this subject please post them here.
  Have a great day!

• Strange behavior file open/create/replace

  Hi all

  I will make my question as broad as possible because I think someone must have met this behavior before. I use the function open/create/replace file to programmatically open a file, giving a path entry created in an earlier vi. Strange behavior, I see, is that although Labview returns 1 error when I give my file programmatically, it reads the file OK if I give as a constant. The constant path that I give is exactly the same as one I am tryinng to programmatically.

  Any suggestions? Is it to do with a string formatting problem? I enclose my portion of treated VI the path_in section.

  Thanks for your time,

  Kind regards

  Harry

  Wild guess: you must use 'build path' instead of 'concatenate strings' build path.

  (Also use a constant of diagram of the path (not a string!) to "c:\ni-rt\" and get rid of the "trim whitespace' and the 'chain of path")

  See if that makes a difference. (build path is OS independent, while the operations of independent channels are not).

  Never use the paths as strings. There are very few cases where this would be appropriate.
