2 different G5s boot with half as many processors

This was weird on the first machine but now two?
Our Quad 2.5 G5 has been intermittently booting with only two processors for months now. The machine itself appears perfectly reliable on only two processors though is notably slower in many areas as you'd expect.
Now just in the last week, my home dual 2.0 G5 (mid 2004 model) is working on only one processor and feels awfully bogged down as a result. The worst side of this one is the fans spinning up loudly for only 10 seconds or so every few minutes. I assumed this to be temperature related, but monitoring the temperatures doesn't seem to reveal anything.
Unlike some others who have posted here with machines not re-booting properly on reduced processors, everything here seems to work as it should aside from the processor problem. There seems to be a lot of this going on yet no reliable prognosis.
Has anyone had any success with a DIY fix? Thanks.

I don't think that is the case Bill, My G5 is a Dual 2.3Ghz (August 2005) and it has 2 physical processors, I know because I have removed them! See the thread below for the reason why. The Dual machines only have one processor per core, but are in pairs, but the Quads have 2 cores also in pairs.
You can tell how many processors are running either via Apple System Profile or via the Activity Monitor (both live in /Applications/Utilities). I believe quad's should have 4 processors listed, but I can't confirm this.
Michael, I wonder if it is related to this thread ?
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1672650&tstart=0
I have a feeling if it is related it may go downhill quite quickly, mine did.
You can run Apple Hardware Test, mine failed only on the video card (lousy ATI 9650 card), even when the AHT was booted from one processor.
You could also buy http://www.bresink.de/osx/HardwareMonitor.html if you want to check more temperature readings. In my case my mac became unusable before I could do much with it.
Good luck.

MacBook Pro won't boot with new hard drive, but a different MacBook Pro will

So here are the details. My friend and I both have 13-inch Mid 2010 MacBook Pro's. Same processor and specs since they were purchased at the same time, but originally had 250 GB hard drives. His hard drive failed and needed a new one. Put a 500 GB Seagate Momentus 5400.6 in his computer, and tried using a flash drive with "Install OS X Mavericks" on it to install Mavericks on his new hard drive. No matter what, it wouldn't install. I finally was able to install OS X 10.9.4 on it by connecting the new hard drive to my computer with a USB hard drive enclosure. I put the hard drive back inside his computer and it wouldn't boot (stuck on the gray screen with apple logo and a spinning wheel). I then attached to the hard drive to his computer externally with the USB enclosure, and then it booted and worked perfectly.
So, it seemed like the problem was with something inside his computer, but then I switched our drives, and that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I put my original hard drive into his computer, and his new hard drive into my computer, and they both booted and worked perfectly, so I have no idea why his computer will not boot with the new hard drive internally.
To summarize, his computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally (won't work if it's internal), and 2) my hard drive internally
but my computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally AND internally, and 2) my hard drive internally.
Both hard drives have OS X 10.9.4 installed
If anyone has any idea what's causing this and how to make his computer work with the new hard drive internally that would be greatly appreciated.

So after switching the internal SATA cables from each computer, now we have
His computer, with my SATA cable:
1) Worked with every hard drive!
My computer, with his SATA cable:
1) Works with 1 TB Toshiba hard drive
2) Works with 500 GB Seagate hard drive
3) Works with my original hard drive
4) Flashing folder with question mark with his old hard drive
So it turns out you were right! Definitely had something to do with the SATA cables. But it's still strange that mine was able to boot with all the hard drives except the one that was originally in his. So it seems like it was some combination of his SATA cable and something else, since when his SATA cable was in his computer only 1 hard drive (my original) worked, and when it was in my computer, 3 hard drives worked. But at least its working, and I'm just gonna keep our SATA cables switched since that seems to work out fine

K9N2 Platinum won't boot with 8800gts

Processor: Athlon X2 4200+ (old) / Athlon X4 635 (new)
Board: K9N2 SLI Platinum
Memory: 4x1GB GSkill
Power: OCZ700SXS 700w
OS: Vista SP2
Drives: 3x620GB WD in RAID 5
Other: 2xLite-On DVDRW
Video: 8800gts 640MB
Everything else has been taken out to test.
The rig worked fine for over a year with the original 4200+. Fired it up one day and got no POST and LEDs 4/6/8/10 were red. Took everything out and after testing I found that it booted with everything but the 8800gts. Seems like the 8800gts is bad but the LED code indicates a processor problem as per the manual. I picked up the Athlon X4 635 for a steal, updated BIOS and installed that chip. Everything works fine but I still have the same problem if the 8800gts is installed. I tested it with a different power supply with the same results. I don't have another PCI-E card or motherboard to do further testing.
Everything points to the 8800gts being bad and I should just suck it up and pick up a new GTS250 or something but the LED code makes me wary. I'd really hate to go pick up a new vid card only to find it has the same issue and I'd love to hear if anybody has had a similar problem and found that the LEDs were just wrong in indicating a problem with the processor.
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback. I'll take any feedback on my GTS250 choice also though this might not be the appropriate place for it.

Thanks for the reply Mordred. That 8800 was a great card for me. I was always an ATI guy but the 8800 was at my sweet spot for price and performance when I put my box together so I gave nVidia a try and it worked out.
That makes perfect sense about why I'm getting this LED code. I think I was partially holding out hope that there was just something I was missing and that the 8800 was still OK.
I do IT for a living so I have tried to do as much in-depth research as possible. I game frequently but I'm not really the guy playing the games which are cutting edge graphically and while I like the games to look good, I'm not really unhappy about having to dial down the settings a little. What I'm hoping to do is squeeze the most I can out of my current rig and avoid having to make a large investment in a single VC until the DX12 cards get into their second generation, at which time I'll probably be in the position to build a whole new rig. I guess the decision I'm trying to make is whether a gts250 now and then another 6-8 months or so down the road will last me another year and a half or so until the DX12 cards get into a good price point. Maybe I'm not right on how long that will take?
I picked up the GSkill kits on the recommendation from the hive mind over at Overclocker.net because they were on sale (cheap to begin with) and people were getting some good results OC'ing them. I haven't had an issue with the GSkill kits yet thought I don't remember off-hand at this point where I finally have the timings set at.

Double booting with OS 10.4 Tiger/Os 9.2

Hello. I'd like to purchase and install OS 10.4 Tiger on my G4 Powermac (Model #: M8689 LL/A with the Mirrored Drive Doors). It came with Mac OS 10.2.1 and OS 9.2 installed. I very much need to maintain access to 9.2, at least for a while, in order to use my preferred older versions of ProTools, which are not supported in 10.4.
I have gotten different answers to the question 'Will i still be able to double boot, into either OS 9.2 or OS 10.4 as need be?' Some folks in the US told me no more double booting with 10.4, but the guys at the local Mac outlet here in Germany say, yes you can still double boot after installing Tiger--that it depends on the computer itself, not the software, and that with my particular powermac G4, it'll still double boot.
Can anyone confirm this one way or the other, and tell me anything i need to know when installing 10.4?
Many thanks from a first-time poster.

Hallo Stork,
die Classic Umgebung ist eine Emulation eines Betriebssystems (OS 9) in einem anderen Betriebssystem (MacOS X). Deshalb muss X auch mehrere Dateien im OS 9 Systemordner verändern und hinzufügen. Dies kann erhebliche Probleme bereiten wenn du den selben OS 9 Systemordner als natives Betriebssystem verwendest, also ohne Emulation (=Classic). Deshalb mein Vorschlag 2 separate Partitionen zu benützen.
Sowohl für die Classic Funktion als auch für ein natives OS 9 brauchst du in jedem Fall ein komplettes OS 9 - das du ja derzeit schon besitzt.
Um deine Festplatte zu partitionieren musst du sie neu formatieren. Dabei werden alle(!) Daten gelöscht! Deshalb musst du unbedingt ein komplettes Backup deiner Programme und Daten vorher erstellen.
Ich schlage folgende Vorgehensweise vor:
1. Starte von der OS 9 Ínstallations-CD (c-Taste während des Startens)
2. Formatiere und Partitioniere Deine Festplatte (Format: Apple Extended (HFS+))
3. Installiere auf beiden Partitionen OS 9 und stelle sicher, dass du von beiden Partitionen starten kannst.
4. Update beide OS 9 Systemordner auf 9.2.2: Mac OS 9: Available Updates
5. Starte von der MacOS X installations CD/DVD.
6. Installiere MacOS X nur auf einer Partition.
7. Update MacOS X mit dem Standalone Combo Update auf die aktuellste Version (Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 Combo PPC). Vergiss nicht: Repair permissions before and after an update!
8. Nach dem Neustart öffne die Systemeinstellungen, klickt auf Classic und wähle jenen OS 9 Systemordner als Classic Umgebung, der auf der gleichen Partition wie OS X liegt.
Fertig! Ab sofort kannst du zwischen OS 9 und MacOS X während des Neustartes auswählen, wenn du beim Starten die alt-Taste gedrückt hältst.

890FXA-GD70 no boot with Razer Naga (on the latest 2 biosses)

With the 890FXA-GD70 I had no problems well still have no problems but if I run on either the latest bios 1.12 (1.C) or the one before that 1.11 (1.B) the mobo will hang on initialising USB controllers if you have the Razer Naga (and from what I heard other razer mouses as well). On the BIOS I'm running now 1.10 (1.A) I have no problems so I'm kind off wondering what you guys changed to the latests 2 BIOS that makes the motherboard unable to boot with the Razer mice.
If you need other info you can have it but as I'm sure this is not a hardware problem but a BIOS problem I doubt any other info would be of use to solving the problem.
I checked with multible power option (EuP/CPU Phase/DDR Phase/Cool & Quiet/C1E) but even with those disabled the motherboard still hangs on initialising USB controllers.
On Fail-safe defaults the motherboard also hangs on initializing USB controllers.
If I plug the mouse in after Windows has started the whole computer just freezes (on the 1.11 or 1.12 BIOS).
If I need to forward this to support do tell as it seems quite weird that 2 bios updates where nothing much has changed besides:
1.11:
- Update CPU AGESA code.
- Update RAID option ROM.
- Improved memory compatibility.
1.12
- Update CPU module.
Cause the BIOS/motherboard to hang on initialising usb controllers.

PSU has nothing to do with it, but it's a 1500W MaxRevo (Gold 94% efficiency).
Processor is a Phenom II X6 1100T
Memory is also supported memory which is Kingston KVR1333D3N9 4x => 16GB
After I flash the BIOS I always clear the CMOS actually twice since the first time I try to save the BIOS options (AHCI=on and no bootlogo etc.) the system does not boot XD but that might be because I don't unplug the powercord while I clear the CMOS though the computer is completely turned off. After I clear the CMOS a second time it will be able to save the options and normally boot.
A CMOS clear shouldn't be required actually since the BIOS update (DOS-WAY) destroys the CMOS checksum doing the same as a CMOS clear except for keeping the date (all other BIOS options are reset).
For kicks I've tried the in the BIOS 1.12 (1.C) I've put the Razer Naga in the USB2 slot I normally put it on the back = no boot, USB3 slots = no boot, front panel USB = no boot. Hell the first thing I do is trying usb-ports or different ports if something does not work like the Adaptec Raid Cards in the EFI mobo's.
I've been in IT for like 6 years now and I've never had problems with my Razer mouse(s) as I had an Razer Imperator before the Razer Naga. The 790FX-GD70 motherboard I had never had problems with it (besides it dying of old age ;P). Apperantly since the latest update the mouse also works on the 990FXA-GD80 motherboards without problems in the BIOS anymore.
Like I said the weird thing to me is that it happens with the 1.11 (1.B) and the 1.12 (1.C) bios while the 1.10 (1.A) bios (which is the one I'm on now) works perfectly. Which in logical sence makes the next 2 biosses bad as something is programmed in there differently than the 1.A bios and cause the Razer Naga (and most likely other gaming mice with own firmware) to fail. This should not be that way seeing as the if the only thing that is added to the bios (from 1.A on) is better cpu support, more memory support and the raid option rom not that I'm into bios programming but if the code was continued from the previous bios code and not rewritten completly the motherboard would still boot with the Naga period.

When I go to a website, it takes me to a different one. No matter how many times I open it, it takes me to random sites.

If I open a page in a tab it will take me to a completely different site, and no matter how many times I try to close and open a new one, it keeps going to different sites. It also happens when I type the website into the address bar, it still takes me to a random site. Is it something with my computer, or is it Firefox, and if it is a problem with Firefox, how do I fix it?

What happens if i boot with windows an install a new version of windows on mac book pro ?

I tried to install a windows on my mac book pro but i couldn't because of i don't know different problems which finally in this forum they told me u can not because of my hard disk partitions ( Link to that post) , now i am using vmware but its really slow for windows 8.1 and visual studio .
i have now a question , what happens if i boot with win 8.1 boot able DVD and install a new windows ?
the main questions are :
1. does it recognize any of my partition to select for windows installation ?
2. if no , can i format any partition for new partition during windows installation?
3. if i could install a windows , who is the boot loader ? windows or mac ? can i still boot to windows or what ?

Give your previous partition layout, you cannot install Windows via Bootcamp, unless you are willing to give up all your extra partitions and go back to EFI, OS X and RecoveryHD only configuration.

1. Windows installer will not work and you will end up with driver issues.
2. No.
3. You cannot, but if you could, the Apple Bootmanager would be your Boot Manager/Loader.

How do I set up different network locations with different wifi?

I am having an issue setting up different network locations with different wifi profiles on each. I want to do this to enable fast switching of wireless networks. In my house I have two wireless networks, my own personal one and one that is created by using a wifi modem supplied by my company. If I use the company wifi network then I can get into all my work applications without having to enable VPN access separately. It is also faster. However, they also block many applications including sending email from my personal email account, dropbox, etc. So throughout the day I need to switch wireless networks back and forth.
I was looking for a faster way to switch and thought I would try network locations. Was able to set up a new network location without issue. However it seems that whatever wireless preferences, changes, or wifi network order I put into my "Work" location it carries over to my other location which is the standard "Automatic".
What I would like it to have my "Work" location only to be able to connect to my work wifi and my other network (Automatic) to just connect to my home wifi only. That way I can enable faster wifi switching and can even use my launcher program (Alfred) to provide shortcuts.
Anyway to do this?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Just thought I would bump this up in the conversation. Doing a further search I came across this discussion which is similar: Connecting to a wireless network via applescript?
However, I tried to build the Automator application as discussed and cannot get it to work. Very much a novice at Applescript and Shell Script but have created customized Automator services before. All I get now is "Shell Script command encountered an error". No more detail. I copied and pasted the script as shown in the email thread. Is there any other line or command I need to place in front of it?
Thanks again for any help

My wife has been having problems with Safari, and many third party software and malware programs infecting her Mac Book Pro.

My wife has been having problems with Safari, and many third party software and malware programs infecting her Mac Book Pro. I have tried to reset Safari but it keeps coming back, taking over Safari, changing defaults, start pages, and search engines, Etc.
Is it safe to use programs like MacKeeper, who keeps send my wife's computer message and alerts, or should I just wipe the drive and start over?

HP Envy 700-430qe DT CTO - - - Trying to dual boot with Windows 7

HELP HELP HELP
I know how to set up double boot for several different HP computers, based mostly from what I have learned in this great forum, but this one has me stumped.
I have been trying to install Windows 7 on this computer to double boot with Windows 8.1. I have tried to set the bios up correctly, enabled legacy, disabled secure boot, disabled fast boot. I booted under UEFI to get in to GPT mode, still no luck at all.
The installation always goes all the way through the first 4 steps and through most of the 5th. After the reboot in the 5th step, it stops and can not go any further. A message appears without any error code.
I think it may be a problem in this computers UEIF settings, but I do not know if anymore of them to try.
I can use all the help you all can offer.
Thank, Brad
PS, If we ever get this to work, then I will have to ask you where to find drivers for this model, if they exist!

Hi Brad,
According to the information that you posted you have a W8 delivered PC.
If the graphics card in your PC can run in legacy mode then you should be OK.
I suggest that you use a separate HP for W7 as you will probably run into partition placement issues when you try to install W7 to the same HD. Installation to the same HD is not impossible but you will have to remove some partitions such as the recovery partition and then resize the "C" partition to make room for W7. You should be able to use Disk Management to delete partitions and resize the "C" partition.
Be sure to create the external HP recovery media as it will be needed. Backup your data to separate external media.You should also consider installing the HP diagnostics to an external flash drive.
Boot in the BIOS and set the BIOS to legacy mode and fast boot off. Save the changes on exit.
Now boot up the external recovery media (don't select the EFI media if shown) and reload your PC with W8.
If your PC boots up and runs OK then you should be good to load W7.
If you are using a separate HD for W7 then unplug the original HD. If you don't then W7 will install a boot manager to the primary HD.

Will not boot with P4 3.06 Gig

I have just update BIOS to the MSI latest available for the MS 6850 PE Max 2 and then after successful reboot and correcting date and time I removed the 1.7 Gig celeron and tried to install a Northwood 3.06 Gig P4. However though the BIOS starts OK and shows processor as a P4 3.06 Gig and then enumerates all devices correctly, the machine with not now boot into an operating system.
1) XP halts after loading the first few files, it shows no error messages
2) Boot from CD starts but stops while still loading initial files
3) Windows Me also fails to boot with a system halted message, (it will not then even try to load the Me disk again saying that it is now missing files).
Return system to 1.7 Gig Celeron and all is OK and boots straight into XP.
Machine has 512Mb of 3200 memory, two hard drives one optical disk and radion 9000 vidoe card.
I am stumped, can anyone please help?

Power supply is an

[SOLVED] RTC and dual booting with Windows 8/8.1

I am planning ahead of installing Arch on a windows 8.1 laptop, and need to understand whether or not the known Windows registry hack to get windows to use UTC for the RTC is still valid for Windows 8/8.1? I have been searching via google and the usual sources of information, but it is not clear to me if there are problems doing this, specifically if arch is dual booted with Windows 8/8.1 rather than older versions of the MS OS. Certainly I have used the technique without any problem in the past when dual booting Windows XP with Arch on several different machines.
Does anyone have personal experience with doing this on a Windows 8 or 8.1 machine and can report here on whether it works successfully or not?
Thanks for any advice.

Since there were no replies at this point I thought I would just go ahead and implement the registry hack on the Windows 8.1 O/S in the laptop and see if Windows behaves. It appears to be OK, with the displayed time being correct after reboot, and time synchronisation remaining fine with no problems seen in the displayed time, although I won't be able to read the RTC directly until I have completed the Arch install in the coming week or two. I now don't foresee any issues with the time synchronisation between booting Arch and Windows 8.1 so I will mark this as solved.
Since the RTC is now in UTC then normal clock config in Arch using chrony should perform normally once the install is done and the new system set up.

Dual boot with Ubuntu 13.0 using bootable USB problem (Y410P)

Hi I recently bought Lenovo Y410P and have been since trying for hours to dual boot with Ubuntu but I was unsuccessful.
I formatted by USB drive in FAT format, and created a bootable usb using Pendrive. Then I changed the Boot Mode to Legacy Support and the boot order so it boots from the flash storage first.
Then it hung on a purple screen like this: http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/3509/dgfdgrunningoraclevmvir.png
and the keyboard doesn't work and I couldn't go any further from here.
So I tried to use a different program called Unetbootin, and the problem got worse and it just stopped working at the option screen where you select whether to just try Ubuntu or install it, etc.
I read it somewhere the recent version of Unetbootin doesn't work, so I got the 474 version of it, and finally I was able to select from the option menu and it didn't hang. However when I clicked on Install Ubuntu, it just stopped there for a while, and then the boot failed and moved onto Windows 8 again.
I looked at the USB drive, and I realized the folder and some config files are names isolinux instead of syslinux, so I changed them, and now I'm getting the "SYSLINUX 3.86 2010..." words on the black screen and it hangs there.
I saw a similar message before using Pendrive and it was like "SYSLINUX 4.10 2012...". That was because the flash drive wasn't formatted in FAT (it was FAT32). So I re-checked the drive, but it is indeed formatted in FAT so I'm not sure why now I'm getting a similar message.
It will be much appreciated if you could give me some suggestions as to how to solve this problem.
Thanks

Something else you could try. Not sure it will make any difference.
Skip the boot creation tools and just boot the thing in UEFI mode.
Use the latest (12.10 or later will work, IIRC) 64-bit Ubuntu ISO. Format your flash drive as a single FAT32 partition. Extract the contents of the ISO to the flash drive. Use 7zip for Windows, or your favorite Linux de-archiving tool. That's it.
[edit] I don't believe the partition needs to be set active, but haven't tested that.
Set BIOS boot mode to UEFI. Even secure boot mode should work withe a new enough Ubuntu - but isn't necessary.
Give that a try. If it still barfs at the same place, mess around with the start-up graphics options.

Help - How to install Win XP in dual boot with Win 7 (first installed)?

Hi everybody!
I'm having some difficult in install a win xp in dual boot with win 7 (which came with the G550 notebook).
I modified the D: (Lenovo) partition to a primary partition to install the XP. Also I installed the EasyBCD to manange the boots and both S.O. load fine.
The problem is that Win XP is seeing a partition (the first partition on disk) with 200MB that is hidden for Win 7 ! So this partition takes the C: letter in XP and mess all the configuration once that many programs uses the C: as a default letter.
The disk is divided in (aprox):
200 MB hidden partition (from factory)
160GB with Win 7 installed
40GB with Win XP installed
19GB hidden partition (Recovery - from factory)
Is anyone has some idea who to solve this problem or make install XP from the beginning without problems?
Thank a lot!

Won't boot with external display connected

My MacBook Pro (circa 1997) won't boot with the external display connected. I can connect the external display (20in flat planel) after it has started, and it works just fine.
I have tried two different DVI cables (one of which I think is a DVI-A cable) and the DVI-to-VGA cable. The result is the same.
During the boot phase I get the tone, the apple logo and the progress wheel. After 30 seconds to one minute those disappear to be replaced by an empty blue screen.

In case anyone wonders, my "solution" was to change to a WB Elements Desktop 3TB (only USB 2.0 is currently available for this model). I miss the speed of USB 3.0, but it's much nicer to not have to remember to unplug and plug in the hard drive each time I boot.
Still hoping to see a proper solution to this (since I don't have the WB My Book anymore, I can't test adaher's suggestion).

2 different G5s boot with half as many processors
