Strange behavior of T61p

Long saga... had a problem for a long time with intermittent closures on drums.

Then one day, the bios of dead feared GPU overture. It was in November, lenovo

graciously fixed the laptop. However, intermittent stop happening always. Got

any income, past yet. Returned again. Was OK for a few weeks, return to

stop randomly on the batteries.

Long story short, to finish my thesis, I just ran on AC all the time, so it wasn't a problem.

Last week however, things were freezing the crazy random stops, BSOD, in video

Girls games, the works. Thought that something got mucked up, so I amazed the OS. Reinstalled Win7-64,

etc, etc. And we're right to him. Now I get sometimes even the thinkpad bios screen. The system

can start entirely, only to freeze (with video screen displayed and on) a few minutes later. Yes, I did

glimpse a few kernel NVIDIA collisions. Right now, I can't give me reliably

the bios screen. I also had a 4-3-4 or something like beep code for start cycle, then the bios screen came

and I got completely to the login screen. Also getting BSOD and crashes in safe mode.

End RAM, HDD is fine, I'm sort of ideas here. Is this another GPU problem.  Unfortuantely I'm now out of warranty.

Probably will call lenovo to see if they will honor the repair they did two months back.

I want an excuse to cop a 220 X, but I'm just too lazy my T61p and are supposed to separate immediately.

Thanks in advance!

Quick update, lenovo are honor the warranty, even though it's a bit out of warranty.

I have to say that's the reason why I will always buy thinkpads. If they never break down, there is a

incredible service behind them.

Customer for life.

  • 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)

    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).

  • 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.

  • Issues coming out of "sleep mode" and strange behavior when restarting with GPU

    I use a desktop computer HP P7-1240 completely stock except for a GPU EVGA GeForce GTX 750 TI SC. The GPU works well when the computer is running (which is strange because the forums have several other discussions mentioning the 700 series must be incompatible with my BIOS).

    However, there are two main strange problems that have arisen since the installation of the GPU. One is that, every time that the computer enters mode "sleep", he refuses to wake back up correctly. It seems to me that the computer active but sends all the signals back panel (at the very least, no video because my monitors remain blank). On rare occasions, he wakes back correctly, but at least 90% of the time, it must be restarted. Upon reboot, the same problem sometimes (not), and the computer must be rebooted a second time until it will start again.

    This leads to the second problem. During startup, the computer goes to a black screen, listing the specifications of basic computer skills (see attached photo. In this screen, the computer does not meet any entry.  He proceeds to beep 3 times, all the same length and height spaced about 30 seconds of gap. After the third beep, the screen goes black and then the computer starts normally with no other strange behavior.

    Without the GPU, none of these problems occur. At the very least, not regularly.

    I saw another thread mentioned that, while the HP support for my office page lists not her, there is an update of the BIOS for my motherboard which has fixed issues related to the GPU more modern. By nature it is an update of the BIOS that does not (seem to) officially support Windows 7, I am reluctant to go forward with this potential solution.

    Although I intend to build myself a new computer from scratch at a certain point, I was hoping to get at least another year out of this machine, if not 2.  While this question does not seem to be immediately threatening the stability of the computer, I can't help but think that it is a question should I go quickly to avoid future problems (not to mention it would save me a good amount of electricity to be able to enter the mode 'sleep' on a regular basis).

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Problem has been solved!

    For those of you who have trouble sleeping with the p7-1240 or computers with a card mother identical (MSI Jasmine Ms 7778 ver 1.0), I suggest that you follow this thread:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-hardware/unable-to-boot-with-new-graphics-card/TD-p/3930544/highlight/true

    It is to use an update for your BIOS that is intended only for PC under Windows 8, but that seems to work perfectly well with Windows 7 PC. It solved my problems of sleep and makes the computer to behave at least semi normally while restarting.

    However, as indicated in the wire, an update of the BIOS should be a last resort because it can turn your machine into a very heavy and expensive paperweight if something does not work. Do not forget that you have the worm 1.0 card mother MSI Ms 7778 Jasmine and remember that you update the BIOS version 8.18.

    As I am looking for 2aeo on HP.com currently (according to the thread leading up to), I'm not find the same links I found last week when I went through the update. However, you can find elsewhere.

  • Strange behavior of TM2 recharge battery - only charges when almost dead

    Hi people,

    I have a new 2200 TM2T who exhibits some strange behavior of battery charge.  When plugged in, the battery will say "connected, charge", but the battery does not charge at all, no matter how much time he has left in (reported remaining level remains the same).  However, if I leave the battery discharged completely, it will start loading again, all the way up to 100%.

    It's a kind of weird automatic battery calibration or something?  I am hoping there is a way to solve this problem, because it's really annoying to not be able to keep busy all the time.

    Hi people,

    I just wanted to report on the resolution of my battery problem.  Returned the laptop to HP, and technical support has replaced the motherboard.  Works fine now.

  • strange behavior

    Hello

    I have a strange behavior on the main screen of my application.

    My screen looks like this:

    1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are bitmap with navigation button, click scope.

    I have a separate Thread for processing and this X thread updates the content of the label and label B.

    Whenever the thread call X function is update the function labels are running label.setText (newtext) on both labels.

    Stange behavior:

    When the x thread updated, the text of the labels (via the function Y) the emphasis is on button bitmap 1,2,3 or 4, the text of labels disappears and the screen looks like this:

    If we move to the development for bitmap button 5 or ListField labels updated successfully and the screen looks like this:

    I checked on debug only when the labels are updated that the text is not null.

    You have some ideas on what is the cause?

  • Strange behavior of audio subsystem after update Dev Alpha 10 to 10.0.9.388

    Hello world!

    Has anyone noticed a strange behavior of the behavior of 10.0.9.388 audio subsystem firmware. Recently, after firmware update Dev Alpha 10 to 10.0.9.388 subsystem audio misbehavies in the following way:

    (1) if the external headphones/speakers connected to the audio line-out looks to be preprocessed by low-pass filter and surround effect. The device reported by AudioManager is/dev/snd/pcmPrefferedp. Would it be a bug in formware and re-routing audio internal speaker to the line-out socket did not exclude specific pre-treatment?

    (2) on the previous firmwares if audio goes out of the internal speaker and then the helmet is connected to Jack line out change of itinerary was seemlesly happening and he kept playing with headphones without additional measures in the application. Now, peripheral audio is not consume audio samples and so crashes until it is closed and reopened.

    On the previous firmwares were not all the problems of this kind. Would be - what a few unlucky flashing firmware try (if it is still possible) or bug of 10.0.9.388.

    It will be good to hear comments & thoughts about these questions.

  • Strange behavior with postGlobalEvent and eventOccurred()...

    Hello world

    I have a browser plugin for my application that will do two things:

    Firstly, when the BlackBerry browser is forwarded to a Web page with a particular MIME type, the browser plugin will say my application to go to the foreground. It works without any problem.

    Secondly, the browser plugin will display a global event at my request. My request, making use of eventOccurred(), will look for this event and the EC type-approval, it will execute an authorize() method that I have. This also works. However, I notice some strange behavior:

    The first time my application launches the BlackBerry browser and goes to the page specified (with a custom MIME type), everything works fine. If I had while my application to launch the browser and do it AGAIN, my authorize() method is running TWICE. If I open the browser of my application for the third time, so my authorize() method is started THREE times. See the model?

    .. .This is all this without leaving my application. If I had to leave and then start my application again, the 'sequence' prior would begin again. Thus, it seems that whenever x times that I repeat this process, the eventOccurred() method will receive x events.

    Here are a few snippets:

    public class Events {
        final public static int EVENT_AUTHORIZE = 1;
        final public static int EVENT_OTHER = 2;
    }
    
    manager.postGlobalEvent(pid, 0xCAFEBABE, 1, 0, null, null);
    
    public void eventOccurred(long guid, int event_type, int arg2, Object arg3,
                Object arg4) {
            if (guid == 0xCAFEBABE) {
                switch (event_type) {
                case Events.EVENT_AUTHORIZE:
                    authorize();
                    System.out.println("EVENT EXECUTION");
                    break;
                case Events.EVENT_OTHER:
                    break;
                }
            }
    
        }
    

    Can we see what is happening here? I've been "racking my brain" on this one for a while now...

    Thank you!

    "Thus, this can work any time the class is instantiated." The class is instantiated just before I open my browser".

    Application.getApplication().addGlobalEventListener(this);
    

    If you call the above (by instantiating your class) every time that you open the browser, applications to register this event listener again and again.

    If you're going to do it this way, make sure removeGlobalListener you when your application is done processing.

    "Can I make addGlobalListener when my application starts even if this class does not implement GlobalEventListener?"

    You can always have your UiApplication implement GlobalEventListener or just instantiate a new object that implements it in the constructor of your UiApplication.

    -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.

    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.
