Don't know what to do anymore with this problem

As it stands, I have upgraded my bios to 3.8 for the K7N2.  I am runnng the latest Nvidia Forceware drivers released in October.  I changed my powersupply to a CoolMax CT470 Smart PSU.  I'm running Wix XP ServicePack 1.  I still cannot get the Sapphire Radeon 9500 to work.  It just consistently causes the CPU to not initialize.  But my Nividia Geforce 2 MX-400 card works just fine.  And the Sapphire works just as well in other computers.

Have you tryed BIOS 3.3. I have a friend with a Crucial Radeon 9800Pro & he was having the same problem. I told him to try flashing to BIOS 3.3 & it now works first time every time.
If 3.3 dosn't work then try 3.2

  • I don't know what is happening anymore with the release of the new iPods?

    So they just now put an AD saying that is now availible.
    When i'm buying it online in the pick up option it says:
    Pick up:Visit an Apple Retail Store. Limited quantities may be available
    I had a chat with them and they said that they don't know anything about it.
    I called to a Retail Store and they said that they dont have it.
    I don't know what's happening i just want to buy it in a store but im so confused.
    Can someone help me?

    Can you show us a screen capture of this 2nd copy with a new WB in your Lightroom grid? Thanks
    Are these second copy photos by any chance photos that had been previously imported?

  • If you don't know what to do anymore(Written by Bas)

    If you don't know what to do anymore because drivers won't install, you might try this.
    Hi there,
    * This article is not really for newbies, but you might give it a try. *
    * Read it thru the end before you do anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *
    I was testing 3Dmark for the link Takki made, THANK YOU!!!!!
    I did the following:
    Tested with my MSI GF2Ti200 (patched to Quadra2Pro) and had a nice score....
    Then I removed the drivers and changed the card to a Hercules Prophet 4500 (KyroII chipset), installed the drivers and done the test again, no problems....I THOUGHT!!!!
    So I uninstalled the drivers again, and inserted the MSI GF2Ti200....
    After the reboot of Win2000+SP2+Directx8.1+VIA4.38, I installed the latest nVidia drivers again, it detected my card as a Quadra2Pro (as it should) and I rebooted....
    The DARN drivers wouldn't initialize!!! I had a nice ! in the driver....
    So I thought, well no problem, we uninstall them again and try it again, same result.....
    Then I thought, it must be the BIOS as I recently flashed the latest version, so I went back to 5.1 from 5.3 on my KT3-Ultra-ARU.....again nothing and the ! was there again.....
    At this point I really started to hate nVidia (still do BTW)....
    The next step I took, was refreshing the ACPI-compliant-system-driver (HAL), no problem you think? My idea exactly, but it told me that it could find some file or it was damaged.....no problem, we just reboot and it should be fine, again nada, njet, noppes, none....but now I had 2 of these damn !, one at the nVidia card and one at the HAL....
    We don't give up, so I started to delete all the OEM*.INF files in the C:\WINNT\INF directory that are not related to the cards I have, but I also deleted the nVidia related.....
    So I rebooted again, installed the nVidia drivers again (have tried old versions too) and again, nothing!, now I got really MAD
    I know, I know, I should have just reinstalled the entire freaking Win2000 at this time, but I hate reinstalling and I won't be beaten by Microsoft
    At this point, my brain was cooking now, I went to the hardware wizzard and choose to remove the ACPI-compliant-system-driver (translated from Dutch so it can differ a bit), and again another reboot.....
    Now Windows got MAD at me!?!?!, it started to load a new ACPI compliant drivers and installed all the hardware over again, except for the nVidia drivers as they where deleted.....
    Windows asked for the MSI CDrom a couple of times, but hey who am I to refuse this humbe request?
    A dozen more reboots and all the drivers where installed again and the time had come to give the nVidia drivers another go....
    After telling me to close the antivirus, don't know why? Never had any problems before! It asked me the same questions as you all get and seemed to install.....another reboot, yep Billy is very keen on rebooting
    What the ?????, they work!!!!!
    Gee man (woman), I have beaten the beast!
    I hope this description will help others who have problems switching cards, you can allway's try this approach.
    I learned from this experiance that the PnP in Windows is junk and you really need to remove the HAL to get it working again, next time I will go straight for this baby in order to get a good recognision of the hardware involved.
    As Windows does strange things when this happens, it will even tell you that files are damaged or missing, when they are not....
    I'm not sure if it will work in XP, but it does in Win2000.....give it a shot before you decide to reinstall....
    As I think reinstalling doesn't get you anywhere and won't solve your problems, I know this is hard stuff, but you really feel pleased afterwards when you managed to solve it.
    Bas.
    BTW, I still don't like APIC 1.1/1.4, never used it on a single CPU and never will as it's faking you on interrupts
    Check your BIOS start screen and you will find all the proof you need
    To remove the HAL, you first need to go to the hardware device listing, there you look under system how your system is listed.
    On my system this is ACPI Compliant System.
    Then you go to the hardware wizzard and choose the option remove a device, after that you get a screen with lot's of devices, there you find the same (allmost) devicename, then you choose to remove that one.
    After you reboot, wait a little as Windows seems to go nuts, just follow thru and you will have a brand new configured system.
    Then try to install the devices that didn't want to install in the first place, you might be so lucky that they do install then.

Any answer would be very helpful for me for i don't know what to do anymore..I am testing my Xlets with XletView 3.6..
    Here is the code i tried:

    }

    Sorry, i forgot about that..
    I tried the HaviBackgroundController Class of Steve Morris (thanks a lot for that great Tutorial!). It is as follows:
    class HaviBackgroundController implements ResourceClient{
    private HBackgroundDevice backdevice;
    private HStillImageBackgroundConfiguration backconfig;
    public boolean init()
    HScreen screen = HScreen.getDefaultHScreen();
    HBackgroundDevice backdevice = screen.getDefaultHBackgroundDevice();
    HBackgroundConfigTemplate backgroundConfigurationTemplate = new
              HBackgroundConfigTemplate();
    backgroundConfigurationTemplate.setPreference(
    HBackgroundConfigTemplate.FLICKER_FILTERING,
                   HBackgroundConfigTemplate.REQUIRED);
              HBackgroundConfiguration backconfig;
              backconfig = backdevice.getBestConfiguration(
                   backgroundConfigurationTemplate);
              if (backdevice.reserveDevice(this))
                   try
                        backdevice.setBackgroundConfiguration(backconfig);
                   catch (Exception ex)
                        System.out.println("Can't initialise the background device");
                        backdevice.releaseDevice();
                        return false;
                   if(backconfig instanceof HStillImageBackgroundConfiguration)
                        this.backconfig = (HStillImageBackgroundConfiguration)backconfig;
                        this.backdevice = backdevice;
                        return true;
                   else
                        backdevice.releaseDevice();
              return false;
         public void dispose()
              if (backdevice != null)
                   backdevice.releaseDevice();
                   backdevice = null;
                   backconfig = null;
         public void display(String filename)
              if(backconfig != null) {
                   HBackgroundImage backimage = new HBackgroundImage("background.jpg");
                   try {
                        backconfig.displayImage(backimage);
                   catch (java.io.IOException ioe) {
                        System.out.println("Can't display background image - IO exception");
                        ioe.printStackTrace();
                   catch (HPermissionDeniedException hpde) {
                        System.out.println("Can't display background image - permission denied");
                   catch (HConfigurationException hce) {

         public boolean requestRelease(ResourceProxy proxy, Object requestData) {
              return false;
         public void release(ResourceProxy proxy) {
              backdevice.releaseDevice();
         public void notifyRelease(ResourceProxy proxy) {
              backdevice.releaseDevice();
    }

    I don't know what is going on with the White Balance (WB) and LR.  I had no problem before but recently LR started to change the  WB as  it is importing photos.  I checked the color scale for my photos and LR and both are with sRGB.  Now instead of LR changing the WB it is giving me a second copy with a new WB.  Your advise is very much needed and appreciated.  Thank you.

    Can you show us a screen capture of this 2nd copy with a new WB in your Lightroom grid? Thanks
    Are these second copy photos by any chance photos that had been previously imported?

    Using Firefox 27 on the Mac. Video on most sites will not now work. I know I am not alone with this problem. What gives?

    Hi KevinMcL,
    Thank you for contacting support. I am also using your set up and I experience video issues when I have hardware acceleration turned on.
    Other steps you can take to improve your experience:
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    my iphone 5 suddenly has a white blank screen,  no liquid contact or history of fall, what can i do with this problem?

    Hey there Galileo,
    It sounds like your iPhone screen is solid white and you cannot do anything with it. Take a look at these steps from the following article about that kind of issue:
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows. I don´t know what to do to prevent this.

    Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows: Word, Excel, etc. I don´t know how to prevent this. I have to spend several minutes everytime closing 5 or 6 windows. I close everything before I sign out so I don´t know what to do. Please help.

    In addition, OS X Lion includes a function referred to as Resume, where it will automatically re-open any app left running when the machine was shut down or restarted.
    To prevent that from happening, you can uncheck the item in the shutdown or restart splash screen which refers to re-opening running apps. Unfortunately, this has to be done every time.
    The alternative is to get in the habit of quitting all apps before shutting down or restarting.
    Note that in the user's guide Apple suggests not shutting the machine down unless it will be unused for more than a few days. Not sure how many 'few' is in that context, but since I use mine every day I never shut it down (unless there's an electrcal storm in the area).

  • I don't know what is going on with my computer

    I have no words to explain what is going on with my computer. Its very hard to explain so here is a screenshot of the problem   

    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.
