• WRT54G2 problem appears after the firmware update

  Hi everyone, a newbie here. Nice to meet you all and thank you in advance for your help.

  Here's my problem. I have updated the firmware on my router for 1.0.04)is Sunday, and then there are problems on my router.

  1 have a weaker signal.

  2. the router cannot detect my internet just as it has been in the past. I have to type in my PPPoE setting for example my user name and password in 192.168.1.1. Furthermore, I use AT & T DSL.

  3. my internet will totally drop off after several hours. I have to reopen it and the modem power on & off switch.

  So I want to know if I can downgrade the firmware back to 1.0.01 or is there any other setting that may help me get but it? A list of steps is better.

  Thanks again in advance and have a nice day.

  If you haven't already done so, try to do a hard reset, hold reset button of the router for at least 30 seconds with the power connected to the router, and then reconfigure as needed.

  Since I use your & AT T DSL, you can reconfigure the DSL modem, so it don't the PPPoE connection and then reconfigure Type Automatic Configuration - DHCP Internet connection router.

  There is another question that may arise with an AT & T DSL modem. My Speedstream 4100 & AT T DSL modem put the IP address 192.168.1.1 for the router WAN/Internet port. If the router is configured to the default settings, there will be a conflict between the modem and the router and none of router devices connected will be able to access the internet. The solution is to change the IP Address of the router to the router on 192.168. 2.1. Restart all router connected devices after you have made this correction.

  Also with some model WRT54G2 (happens on my router WRT54G2 V1) the wireless signal will go offline when a wired computer is started. When this happens, the work around is the power cycle that the router once the wired computer has started, or log in to the router, go to basic wireless settings page and click on the button Save the settings. Then the wireless signal comes back to the top and wireless devices will resume their connection.

• Windows does not start in normal mode after the Trend Micro update a few days ago. I can only work in safe mode. Whenever it freezes in normal mode just after typing my password. Help, please.

  Trend Micro update

  If the information below does not help, contact Trend Micro because it is their product that caused the problem:

  http://eSupport.trendmicro.com/default.aspx

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

  Restore point:

  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.

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

   

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  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.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  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 startup repair disk.

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

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

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

  See you soon.

  Please launch the Console application in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Step 1

  For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

  SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

  in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

  List of newspapers seen ▹ display

  In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

  In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

  Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

  When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters."

  I just reinstalled it again and again, nothing.

  All I get is a Windows notification that there is a problem with the program and Windows to send a crash report.

• Updated to Photoshop CC 2014 - just after the launch remains on the wheel that turns long before that it can be used

  I have just updated to the CC Photoshop 2014 on my MacBook Pro retina and just after it starts, it is just on the spinning wheel for about 3-4 minutes until finally, Photoshop can be used.

  It's never happened before in the CC version that was usable immediately after the launch.

  Any ideas what is the cause? I tried to disable all plugins and presets, etc. anything.

  Hi Daskennich,

  I had a different problem with first CC 2014, I managed to get solved with the help of someone on the Forum first.

  The great thing is that the solution also fixed this problem of Photoshop as well!

  So here it is:

  From: wrpcWill

  I found a solution that worked for me. Seems to be a permissions issue. Here is the solution I found (found here: CC 2014 startup problems: Adobe Premiere Pro):

  In the finder menu, click and hold down the menu REACH. That hold the option key and the library user will appear. Click on the user's library.

  In this folder, go to preferences and find the adobe folder.

  Right-click on the adobe folder and click get info.

  In the permissions section, & sharing, there are three names.

  Everyone should say read & write beside them.

  Open the lock, turn all to read and write.

  Then click on the little train directly under the names or to the left of the lock and the menu drop down click on 'apply to the included items.

  Then relock the lock.

  Now, go to your OS hard drive and click on users, your user name, Documents.

  Find the adobe folder there.

  Right-click on the adobe folder and click get info.

  In the permissions section, & sharing, there are three names.

  Everyone should say read & write beside them.

  Open the lock, turn all to read and write.

  Then click on the little train directly under the names or to the left of the lock and the menu drop down click on 'apply to the included items.

  The lock, the lock again.

  Wait a minute. Then launch first.

  This fixed it for me.

  I hope this helps!

• NB550: After the Bios Update: sound problem

  Hello

  I updated my bios a few days ago and I have a problem with my sound.
  Immediately after the update the sound does not work at all: No Sound is detected.
  If I had a glance in the Device Manager, I found 2 entries that were called: "unknown device".
  I chose the point on both inputs, the updates succeeded and my card "Realtek HD Audio sound" is now displayed in 'sounds and Audio devices '.
  The sound worked after that.

  But the sound is still stuttering now. Maybe a few seconds the sound is good enough, then he breaks for a split second and turns on again. It wasn't like that before the update. Also if the computer has to calculate, for example if I use internet, it is still more stuttering.

  Should I try to set my bios default settings (even though I was never in the bios before)?
  Other solutions?

  Please help me with this...

  Thank you very much in advance!

  > But the sound is still stuttering now. Maybe a few seconds the sound is good enough, then he breaks for a split second and turns on again. It wasn't like that before the update. Also if the computer has to calculate, for example if I use internet, it is still more stuttering.

  These sound like some background process would use a lot of CPU performance and as a result some delays could appear in audio playback.

  In your case I check the process in the Task Manager tab and check which process locks the CPU.
  Then, you can google for it this process in order to get more details about that maybe it could be disabled...
