• Unable to start the virtual machine after restoration

  Guests including Test host: ESXi 5.1.0.1065491

  Vm problem: 32-bit, Server 2003

  I use Veeam Backup & Restore 6.5 to back up my vm.  I always do a test restore to ensure that my backups are good.  I'm having a problem with a restore.  The 32-bit Server 2003 vm starts just fine on the main host it runs on.  All the vm are 64-bit except for one who is a 32-bit Server 2003 vm.  Restoring the machine virtual and implemented on a host except the 32-Bit vm Server 2003 test.  After restoration and trying power to the top, I get the following error:

  Unable to start the virtual machine.

  Turn on VPCM module has failed.

  Viewed performance counters require version 3 or greater of architectural performance monitoring.

  Anyone know if there is a fix for this problem?

  TIA,

  Mux

  I assume you are using different hardware (CPUs, the BIOS settings) for VMS restored!

  The virtual machine has VPCM enabled, which causes the problem. You can either disable it in vSphere Web Client (you can do this in the vSphere Client Windows), or directly modify the .vmx VM by setting vpmc.enable to "FALSE".

  For how toggle this setting in the Web Client see allow virtual in the Web Client vSphere CPU Performance counters. If you want to edit the .vmx file manually, you need to delete/re-add the VM from the inventory or recharge (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1026043)

• Bug to stop random, DIFFERENT from the power switch question

  I found a problem that I have yet to isolate the cause of the, but his is happened a few times now.  Sometimes, when my Sansa has updated its database and has not played a song at the moment, if I change the settings and then try to play a song, it starts to play, then cut completely.  It doesn't happen often, but these are the circumstances each time.  The player will not respond and will refuse to power on.  The only way to get on is to hold the power switch until the device resets, release, and then power it turned on, which of course means another data refresh.  Once this is done, my settings are all back to where they were before the last change, I can change their return, and everything works fine.  As I said, the problem don't occur often, only about 3 times since I've had (since June), but its still an obvious problem.  If someone wants to know more about it, or want me to try a few things, let me know.  I'm mainly just let Sandisk people know, then maybe we can get this in a future firmware update.

  New firmware is in the release process now, so hang on until release us the next version.  It can help about this.  Should be within 1-2 weeks.

  Hello

  No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
  are a few others.

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
  Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
  Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
  ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
  repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.

• OTP-S5100 - "unable to start the server" - but he DOES not see my computer!

  I had a devil of a time with this option. Finally, and without provocation, the ability to reference the media from my computer suddenly started to work a couple of months. However, as I add new video files, new files do not show upward (but in the same directory as the others). Finally, I tried to move all files to a new directory and then he set up through media center to access this directory. It worked fine, but then the same thing again - new files, but that it would not come up on top of the list.

  Ended up trying to move all the files a cople of days earlier in another directory again. Now, the unit sees my computer, but it is grayed. When I click on it, all I get is a screen that says "failed to start the server. Wait a few moments, and then reselect the same server or put the server media market. "Then, of course, I closed the PC & BDP several times, but does not. Just a list of my computer all the gray.

  I checked the settings of my PC (Windows 7) - Home Group (check), automatic WMP streaming (check), firewalls (none... check). New programs (none... check). Nothing seems to work.

  A big hug of gratitude to someone out there who can tell me what's happening!

  Thanks in advance!

• Unable to start the computer after the installation of Windows updates

  original title: same problem with the other oddities.

  I also have a computer down the update.  Although I tried several times to start the computer from the installation CD re, when I get to the page where I have options to fix or exit, locks from my computer to the top and will go no further.  Suggestions how to get the computer to boot the CD and allow me to choose the repair option without locking up?  Thank you!

  I finally managed to get the reinstallation CD to load.  I also spoke with telephone tech support at Microsoft who helped me to descend KB977165 my system.  After that was removed the computer booted without error.  By MS tech, I am also running the anti-virals and malicious programs to see if they detect all the other infections.

  Originally, the CD would load to the point of being able to choose between the options: continue to fix or exit.  At this point, the computer froze upwards and would not all repairs in order to remove KB977165.  Microsoft launches a call again tomorrow in order to install safety free bug so far.

  Thanks for your reply.

  Hello

  1. it doesn't matter that the 'connected' is checked which is normal. "Connect at power on" is important and must be checked that it is on the screenshot.

  2. now, change the "autodetect" option to point to your 'real' cdrom device (that this laptop has).

  3 If this does not convert your cdrom ISO image 2003 and load through the second option that says "use an iso image.

  4. If this still does not work there is only one possible "your 2003 cdrom is NOT bootable. The fact that it autoruns IN Win7 does not mean that is bootable. You should check by placing it in a different machine of cdrom, restart this computer, bios in order to boot from CDROM/DVD first and see if the change boots. If it does not start even from there then for sure this cd is NOT bootable. So, the important thing is to load the cd on time to start and not inside the operating system to work.

  5. try to download an iso of the trial of the internet windows Server 2003 and use that one to see what is happening.

  6. create a new virtual machine and try here or even better to try another machine with Workstation 8 and see what happens.

  7. it is no coincidence if the CD-ROM drive is not recognized within the virtual machine.
