WindowServer []: GPU Driver seems to be suspended (more than 5 continuous seconds of reluctance)

Hello

I have a huge problem with my iMac to year < 1 5K. It seams it is not capable of running tools. At least that is the statement that the Apple dealer gave me the excuse followed, I expect that Apple updated sound driver and hope that the problem will disappear.

But one after the other. I bought this iMac I have a configuration with the best available (i7) CPU and 16 GB of RAM in April. When I asked if the least performing graphics card is sufficient to run application oll but games, they assured me that this is the case. Then all year there was seldom behavior with this mac, because after a while, he started to suspend for a period at the beginning a few seconds and after some time a little more until it becomes completely unusable because of the high frequency of gels. These gels has disappeared, especially when the focus of the application has been changed (cmd + tab), but come back more and more.

The first thing I did, I even if this thing is broken and got a new logic board installed, but the ramains problem.

After all, I discovered that the log is full of statements like:

WindowServer []: GPU Driver seems to be suspended (more than 5 continuous seconds of reluctance)

When the application is frozen. So I got the iMac to the dealer. Just today, they called me and told me that this problem is related to all THE tools of creation as Photoshop, but also of music like Ableton and same logic X programs! They told me I have to wait for Apple to arrive with a new driver of the logic board that hopefully solves the problem. I mean that literally, they confirmed that the iMac 5K is not able to run any creative Application at the present time for a longer while.

My question is, what should people like me do, when the sole purpose of this computer was creative tools. Is there a program to switch to another machine like MacBook or Mac Pro or are the iMacs postum declared as not usable for creativity and buyers, and even less in the rain?

Sorry, but my last post was so full of typos, I was really offset after the retail bank and need some time to get down. I'm sorry. This is a rewritten version, with most of the corrected errors:

But one after the other. I bought this iMac with the following configuration: the best (i7) processor and 16 GB of RAM, Fusion drive and the simplest card in April.

When I asked if the less powerful graphics card are sufficient to run all applications next to the actual 3D games, they assured me that this is the case.

Then all year long this mac rarely showed a behavior. Initially, he started to suspend for a period of a few seconds and after some time a little more until it becomes completely unusable because of the high frequency of the freezes. These gels has disappeared, especially when the focus of the application has been changed (cmd + tab), but come back more and more.

First I though that something is broken and brought it to repair apple, where I got a new board installed, but the problem remains.

After all, I discovered that the log is full of statements like:

When the application is frozen. So I got the iMac to the dealer. Just today, they called me and told me that this problem is related to all THE tools of creation as Photoshop and also music like Ableton and same logic X programs! They told me that I have to wait as Apple launches the new driver of logic board, which hopefully will solve the problem. I mean that literally, they confirmed that the iMac 5K is not able to run any creative Application right now for some unknown time - perhaps always.

My question is, what should people like me do, when the sole purpose of buying this computer was creative tools. Is there a program to switch to another machine such as the MacBook Pro or Mac Pro or are the iMacs postum declared as not usable for creativity and buyers, and even less in the rain?

I'm really curious since the sill site Web of Apple announced the iMac as a creative Monster.

  • T4i does not record more than a few seconds of HD videos?

    Hello

    The obtained T4i my partner does not seem to record HD videos more than a few seconds. It does NOT use video snapshot mode to capture video. Videos captured mode 640 x 480 can save for a time quite long... more than twelve minutes. She emptied the SDHC 16 GB card completely and still the same problem is faced.

    Any suggestions as to what can be causing this?

    Thank you

    The manual recommends a class 6 or higher.  Any class 10 will work for video.

    I replaced a damaged AMD Phenom II quad CPU 820 HP said was a compatible AMD Phenom II 965 Black edition on my HP Pavilion p6320y quad. AMD has recommended I also replace the PSU with a 500w power supply 300w. This has been done with success as well. When I turn on the machine, the cooling fans turn on, but run for not more than 3-4 seconds and the machine turns off. The CPU is brand new and it has been determined to be good, not to have been a DOA. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion p6320y and its card mother M2N78-(Violet6). Previously, these support pages stated that the motherboard has a maximum TDP of 95 watts. According to the specs, it supports the following processors;

  • Windows 7 asks Me to format the Seagate FreeAgent external hard drive I've used for more than a month

    I used Seagate FreeAgent as my external hard drive for more than a month now, but recently I am unable to access Windows 7 asks me to format it to use it. Somehow I can format the HDD without losing my data?  Or does perform a work around?

    Hi NuVille,

    Before perform us any of the steps, first of all I suggest you to create a backup of the data stored in your external hard drive on another computer.

    To save the data, you can connect your external hard drive on another computer and copy all the files and folders on the other computer. Later, you can connect the external drive to the Windows 7 computer and try to run the disk error checking and check if that helps you solve the problem.

    Access the link below and follow the steps to check the drive for errors and fix it.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors

    After completing the disc you error checking, try to check if you can access the drive.

    If the steps above do not I suggest you try to format the hard drive. Access the link below and follow the steps to format the hard drive.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-and-format-a-hard-disk-partition

    Note: there is no way to format without losing any data on the disk. Formatting the drive will erase all data.  This is why you must back up the data before formatting the hard drive.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • Adding a voting drive. Can we have more than 1 drive to vote?

    Version: 10g R2

    In the documentation, I read the following command adds a voting drive. But, can we have more than 1 drive to vote at the same time?

    Reference:-issue voting disk

    answered by Silva

    (1) why don't we not create an odd number of voting record?
    With regard to the vote of the disks are concerned, a node must be able to access exclusively more than half of the discs with the right to vote at any time. So if you want to be able to tolerate a failure of n disks to vote, you must have at least 2n + 1 configured. (n = 1 means 3 discs with voting rights). To you can configure up to 32 disks with voting rights, to the providing protection against the 15 simultaneous disk failures.
    Oracle recommends that customers use drives 3 or more with right to vote in Oracle RAC 10g Release 2. Note: For best availability, 3 files of voting should be separate physical disks. It is recommended to use an odd number as 4 drives will be more highly available than 3 disks, 3 1/2 is 1.5... rounded up to 2, 4 1/2 is 2, once we lose 2 discs, our cluster fails with 4 disks with voting rights or 3 discs with right to vote.

    (2) only the cluster checks actually for the counting of the votes before node eviction? If so, could you expain this process briefly?
    Yes. If you lose half or more than all your discs with right to vote, then nodes get evicted from the cluster, or nodes to expel from the cluster.

    (3) what is the logic behind the documentaion note which says "each node must be able to see more than half the disks with right to vote at any time"?
    The answer to the first question is will also answer this question.

  • Back to single drive - blue led flashing for more than 5 hours now

    After trying a second drive, I wanted to go back to your hard drive 1 TB (nhm410) original.

    So I clicked on the "back to the single disk.

    The Web interface gave me 15 minutes to several hours warning. clicked ok and the mht410 restarted (I assume that was the case).

    The LCD screen is out and the powerbutton flashing in blue.

    He does this now for 5 hours.

    Think it's fake. Several hours is 2-3 hours... not 5 or more...

    Is it save to reset the device?

    Don't think it can do anything harmful to the drive as it should also be possible to change the primary hard drive...

    What do you think guys?

    Yes, it should be safe to reset and turn the unit off. Just make sure that you upgrade the firmware again after resetting it.

    Keep we have no progress!

  • Wireless connectivity problems: Windows Vista displays connected to the internet with good signal, but cannot access the internet more than a few seconds.

    Hello

    Recently, I brought a Dell with Windows Vista and a Belkin Wireless adapter in my house somewhere else. The computer has never had problems connecting to wireless internet on the other networks, however since the move I was not able to access the internet. Sometimes the network shows only a local connection and not Internet and other times, the network has a strong signal, a network identified and even an internet connection, but when I open any browser, it is only able to load the Google homepage and I cannot navigate anywhere else. I turned off all firewalls and even uninstalled all 3rd party software protection. I checked all my browser settings and made sure they detect automatically the IP settings and proxy settings. In other words everything seems in good shape, but I still have no navigation capability. Any ideas?

    It turns out that I had to remove all the old Wireless USB software that had been used previously (there had been other versions of Belkin and Linksys). I then used the computer from my friend to download suitable driver on the Belkin site for the internet adapter USB I used and BAM.

  • Acer Aspire 5349 began to stop randomly, now can not stay on more than 2 seconds

    Hello world!

    I use my 5349 aspires for more than 4 years now running Windows 7. A few months ago, he began stopping at random - sometimes after an hour of work, other times - after 10-15 minutes.

    It is used mainly for light office work, but given his age, I decided it was due to the accumulation of dust or otherwise overheating due to thermal decomposition paste to the processor and the thermal pads - for the video chip. It is out of warranty, so I disasembled he replaced even if the thermal paste compound and the thermal pad seemed OK. There was no dust important problem as well, in any case seized the opportunity to thoroughly clean.

    After assembling and switching on, it ran stable for 3-4 hours which even helped me put upgraded to Windows 10 (32 bit). He rested for a few days due to the holidays here and then when turned on - again closed in about 10 minutes. After that no matter what I do - perform disassembly, check for loose contacts, CMOS battery, laptop battery, etc.-, he could not run for more than a few minutes from the Windows recovery and then stops again. In the last days it even can't stay for more than a few seconds before stopping again, so I can not even get into the BIOS.

    Laptop battery is good, because it has always been used as a desktop replacement, in all cases tried with battery and battery off nothing works. The power brick is one that came with it originally, even though it says LITEON instead of ACER. Tried another one with the same voltages and amps for an another ACER laptop - the situation didn't improve or change at all.

    Logically, I started reading here and discovered on exactly the same problems with other similar models, so I tried all the suggestions - replaced RAM, HDD, DVD, tried to boot from USB or DVD, tried to remove the build-up of electrostatic charges. I'm very suspicious of the latter, or any electrical problem / might like, because when I completelly demolish the mobile nut, i.e. by removing everything that can be removed and then back - it works for 10-15 minutes before closing.

    So, finally, the question is - is there suggestions that I could follow?

    The easy solution is to replace the MB in case it would help, or the completely portable, but I hate when I don't understand or diagnose a hardware problem and will make every effort to identify and resolve.

    See you soon!

    Google the keywords "5349" "mainboard" or "motherboard". Replacements to run $100 inc shipping, some on ebay U.S. and other China.

  • I have Windows 7 reinstalled on my machine. Now when it boots up, it hangs on drive A, two minutes or more.

    I have Windows 7 reinstalled on my machine.  Now when it boots up, it hangs on drive A, two minutes or more.  The light A drive turns on but the screen is completely blank - nothing.  The machine will start subsequently, but it takes forever.  Is there a way to fix this?

    A: drive is almost always a floppy drive, you have a floppy drive?  I ask because most of Windows 7 computers is not these.  I would check the Device Manager to see if a floppy drive is it shows.  Since you say a drive light turns on, it's the floppy drive or maybe your CD/DVD or hard drive fire?  It seems more likely that Windows is suspended to try to identify a USB device, so I would try to unplug all USB devices except the keyboard and mouse and see if the problem persists.  I had this happen with some markets good USB hubs.  You can always add additional USB ports "inside the box" If you have a desktop computer by getting an expansion card - they are not expensive.  They usually cost between $15 and $25.

    Good luck.
