2 Beeps on Startup and blank screen - Satellite P300-19P

Hi guys,
I installed an express card yesterday and it's caused all sorts of havoc (IRQ conflicts, hangs etc).
I went to restart this morning and it's now just giving me 2 beeps and nothing on screen. I've looked up the phoenix bios bleep codes but this one aint listed. Any ideas if I can do a BIOS reset with a jumper?
Obviously I've tried removing the express card!
Any help would be fantastic
Thanks
Owen

Hi buddy,
> Any idea what the beeps mean?
Only an authorized service provider can say for sure what this beep code means
> I'm not fused about an authorised provider as it's out of warranty.
Why is it a problem if your notebook is out of warranty? Who says that a repair would be expensive? Maybe its a simple thing that would cost only few Euros.

Mac keeps logging out and blanking screen.

hi.
for some reason my mac just keeps logging out and blanking the screen at random points each day.
its VERY weird.
is there anything i can do about it?

There are a number of things that you could try - resetting SMC and PRAM, doing an Apple Hardware Test, reinstalling system software, etc.
But, if I were you, I'd take the unit into an Apple Store or an AASP. But be certain that you backup all of your data before you take it in.
When there's no rhyme nor reason to restarts and 'blank screens' on a daily basis, it's best just to let Apple handle it - they can run tests that aren't available to mere mortals. Could be anything...

Satellite P300-19P won't display 1,440 x 900 in Win7 64bit.

Does anyone know why my Satellite P300-19P won't display 1,440 x 900 in win7 64bit.
It's highest display is 1360 x 768 which leaves a gap of about 1/2 inch at the top and bottom of my screen.
I had full res on XP but not on Win 7.
The drivers are up to date.
Anybody know why?

Im not quite sure about the difference between Vista and Win 7 ATI catalyst but it could be possible that some options are not present in different Catalyst options.
However, the available display resolution depends on the graphic driver.
I think the gap at the bottom and top o the screen appears due to 1360 x 768 resolution.
Its to small because the native resolution of this 17 TFT is 1440 x 900.
What happens if you would not install the ATI driver but would use the common Win 7 graphic card driver?
I installed Win 7 on my notebook and I didnt install graphic card driver because graphic chip was recognized automatically and all resolutions were available.
Check this.

Satellite P300-19P not able to capture audio using Chicony Cam software

Hey,
I recently upgraded to windows 7 from vista and since then i have not been able to capture audio with the camera assistant software.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing the program, changing the audio settings, running in compatibility mode, i have practically exhausted everything i can think of.
Can anybody help at all?

Hi
You mean you are not able to record the audio using the internal microphone.
Is it right?
In your case I would recommend checking the audio device settings inside the camsoftware.
In settings -> audio tab (last tab) you will find the necessary settings.
The audio device field should contain the microphone (2 Realtek high definition device) and the audio volume option should be set to max (to right).

Satellite P300-19P: CD/DVD drive tries to read the disk then ejects

Hi,
I hope someone can help,
I have a *Satellite P300-19P*.
I have had this notebook 3 months and this is the latest frustrating problem; every now and again when I insert a DVD or CD and close the drawer the drive tries to read the disk and then ejects the disk, even if I take the disk out and shut the drive the drawer still ejects,
If I shut the system down and reboot the problem still exists.
I have checked the drivers which are up to date and the OS is Windows Vista home premium 32bit.
This is the fourth time this has happened and the problem seems to correct it's self and reappears as and when!!
Has anyone had this problem or can anyone help as this is driving me mad.

Hi!
I think thats a problem with the CD/DVD drive.
In your case I would go to an ASP (authorized service provider). They should check your notebook and change the drive if it is necessary.
Here you can search for an ASP:

Satellite P300-19P - Low battery notification sound

Does anyone know if there is a way of creating/turning on an audiable low battery notification? I can't find one.

Hello
You can set a notification sound in the control panel => sounds and audio devices => Windows sounds.
There you can set a sound for low battery.

Beeping on startup and won't turn on

Hey guys,
was wondering if someone could help me. This morning I spilled some coffee on the keyboard of my MacBook Pro . I didn't spill a lot and as soon as it happened I switched the computer off, cleaned it and vacuumed the keypad to suck out any liquid. I tried turning it on and it booted like normal, with no unusual issues. After that I booked into a Genius Bar for some advice. When I took the computer in, the genius guy said he would open it up and take a look. He told me no coffee had made it into any of the important parts and the only thing that will happen is I will possible have a sticky keypad. Now I have brought it home, I've tried to turn it on and all I have is a blank screen, with 3 beeps and a pause that repeats. The light also flashes simultaneously with the beeping. I would have put this down to the coffee, but like I said, it started up fine before I took it to apple, so I'm thinking it must be something this guy did when he opened it up. Any ideas on what could have happened? or if he has somehow damaged my computer, should I be asking for a free repair?
Thanks!
Mia

Mac computers: About startup tones
3 successive tones, a 5 second pause (repeating): This indicates RAM does not pass a data integrity check.
I'd certainly check that the memory modules are installed correctly, & remove/replace them to be sure.

Windows Server 2008 Standard 32-bit gives Rundll32.exe error and blank screen on bootup

Last week our file server installed automatic updates and then requested a reboot. After rebooting it repeatedly gave a blue screen and rebooted. After 5 hours on the phone with Microsoft support we all gave up on it with no solution. Later
we were able to get the machine to boot using an old mirrored hard drive of the system drive. We can now access our data drive, however after login we get this error:
Rundll32.exe : Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file.You may not have the appropriate permission to access the
item.
and the console just shows a blank screen. We are not able to do anything on the server. I can Ctrl-Alt-Del and bring up Task
Manager and I see that SQL Server is not running, so not all services are running normally.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Based on my research, this issue occurs because the Rundll32.exe file is corrupted. You need to extract a new copy of Rundll32.exe in C:\Windows\System32.
To do this, you can either copy it from another same version of Windows or perform an In-Place Upgrade.

Qosmio G20 Beeping a lot and dimming screen - why?

Occasionally my Qosmio G20 starts beeping a lot and reducing the brightness on the screen.
This happens while it is running on AC power and with the power option set to highest level.
Simoultanesly there are some blue lights above the keyboard that starts blinking.
The only way to stop this behaviour is to press the key below the blinking blue light, and then go to the control panel an manipulate the power settings. To do that, I have to change the brightness, press apply, restore the brightness and press apply again. After that it may work for a long time before the next incident.
I have the latest Windows updates, I have an anti virus installed, and I have spyware removers installed, so I don't think any of those are to be suspected.
Usually this happens while the PC is playing a movie, but occasionaly it happens while I am playing a game or when I use it for work.
Any help will be appreciated.
regards
Olav

Hi
I would recommend to check the Toshiba power saver.
Select your power mode and check the setup action settings.
Please check the Alarm level settings.
You should take a look also on the basic setup. There you can check the screen brightness.
Please be sure that the unit uses the Toshiba power saver schemes in the Windows power options properties.

Update and blank screen problem

Hi I recently was having the problem were my 8800 would get a blank screen and the red led would blink and the phone would not turn on. I pulled the battery and let it sit and it started to work again. After experiencing this I decided to connect my phone and back it up and try to update the software. I downloaded the bbdm and started to update my phone. I get to the point in the update " loading system software" Gets about half way though and stops completely. I let the phone sit for 2 hours and hasnt made any progress. I then disconnected it and re connected it and tried the update again. Same problem doesnt make it past loading system software. Im really at a lost. any ideas??? thanks

I recently had the same issue when I upgraded to the 4.5 OS. Blackberry had me pull the battery and run the loader.exe program. It solved my problem. You have to keep the battery out until it asks to initialize.
I hope this helps

My Mac beeps at startup and won't turn on.

When I turn my mac on it makes this consistent beeping sound with a black screen. Unlike other discussions I have seen, my mac doesn't beep 3 times, but continuously beeps forever. Is there something with the RAM? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

3 *beeps* at startup and no booting

hello,
i would like to know what happened to my motherboard , here is a short description of what i did >
i had 2Gb of OCZ DDR3 Ram , after some problems i ran memtest and i saw that i had a problem with one of my memory sticks so i decided to buy 3 new ones (noname/brand) . My PC was running fine (yeah, never touch a running system !!!) then i decided to turn it off and install the new Ram sticks, once off i removed the working OCZ Ram and plugged the 3 new ram sticks in and tried to boot > the board beeped 3 times and didn't boot ! i replaced the OCZ working Ram in (power off, 3 other sticks removed^^) but the same happened, 3 beeps and the board wont boot :( ! i tried each ram slot with the working OCZ memory but still always the same result : 3 beeps and no boot !
i fear the ramchipset is damaged or is there something i forgot/didnt do right ? Also if the ramchipset is damaged will MSI repair/replace my board (normally it is still guaranteed).
Please help i need my PC (actually i am on an old system running a Linux live CD to connect to the Internet, wich aint quite stable since it reboots sometimes alone :s )
thanx in advance for your replys

so.....sadly i have to say my MB is dead :( !!!
i first went out and bought new RAM sticks (Corsair XMS3, dualchannel) and tried them = no results :(
then starting to go mad without a "normal" PC i ordered a new MB (asus P5P43TD since i sadly couldn't find any MSI P45D3 Platinum anymore at my usual retailers/stores i go to), as i took the old board out i saw what the problem was ->
Big :
http://yfrog.com/5sp1020503jx
Smaller :
http://yfrog.com/8dp10205041jx
the board is still under warranty till December 2010 ! i really hope MSI will repair/replace it for me since i really love this board and I'm looking forward to re-use it and ditch the Asus one !
i allready mailed MSI support who told me to return it to my vendor who in returns directs me back to MSI support :S since the order has passed 1 year (time in which they would had handle the exchange/repair).
So can i hope MSI will replace/repair it or what should i do ?

Satellite P300-19P - How to change from NTSC to PAL?

Everytime I want to display on my TV I have to change the TV from PAL to NTSC as I can't find how to change the S-Video output on the laptop from NTSC to PAL.
Does anyone know how to?
Cheers.

Hey,
Im not owner of Satellite P300 but either you can change this option in BIOS or in display driver. Normally there you have an option to change between PAL and NTSC on S-Video output.
Check this!!!
