A Windows problem once again

I just made a post earlier about having issues with my hard drive. BOSS was a huge help. Anyways, I am in another dilemma  that I have been through before. For some wild and crazy reason, I decided to do a complete re-install of Windows XP. My XP cd is about 6 years old so it does not have SP2. I must tell you that I had issues installing windows before. The first round, I was having a problem that when windows xp was going to install for the first time, my machine would just urn off right when it began downloading files in the windows setup screen. I narrowed it down before by taking out one of my sticks of ram. After I took out one of the sticks or ram, it seemed to install fine. So I returned both sticks (because they were a pair) after I got windows working and updated. Now, after I reformatted my Hard drive and going for a fresh install, I am having the same problem (my machine is turning off on windows installation screen). At one point, I even got passed the "Enter serial key" and then it turned off shortly thereafter. Is there any chance that I got yet another bad stick of ram? I have tried swapping them out to see if one would work but no luck. Or could I just have a bad XP CD (Being that it is 6 years old and not up to date with all the new components).? Any ideas? Thanks a bunch for any help you may have.
My Machine is listed below.
Case: Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Power Supply: Thermaltake W0106RU Complies with ATX 12V 2.2 & EPS 12V version 700W Power Supply 100 - 240 V CE, CB, TUV, FCC, UL, CUL, and BSMI certified
Motherboard: MSI P7N SLI Platinum LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 750i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor
Video Card: MSI NX8800GT 512M OC GeForce 8800GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card
Memory: Corsair DDR2 XMS, 6400C5DHX (2 x 2GB) 4 GB 800mhz 5-5-5-18, 64 bit OS Quad
Hard Drive: Western Digital 320 GB SATA, 8MB Buffer, 7200RPM

I'm at work at the moment, I will get those specs to you later. I have also been reading through all of the other posts about people having the same problem. I have tried most everything they have tried to resolve this issue. I am starting to see a trend in brand of Memory (Corsair XMS2). I may take the memory back today and exchange it for another brand. Good thing Fry' is a mile from my house. I only have until tomorrow to make the return, then my 15 days for return are up on the ram. My biggest concern would be the motherboard, which would be a huge headache. Is anyone using the MSI P7N SLI PLatinum Mobo and working just fine? If so, what are the specs?

  • Digital Output problem once again (WIN XP, Audigy

    I searched the forums with no luck, actually I searched the whole internet with no luck - so far.
    My problems in a nutcase:
    - I can't find the button for Digital Output (the one which enables it, Windows XP's sound mixer used to have that option with some ?windows build?, but I can't find it since I installed creative drivers, it's just gone...).
    - If I find the digital output on-button with your help, is it even possible hear music with add-ons trough digital-optical cable or should I buy some mono-cable? :O
    To be specific:
    I have the Creative Audigy 4 Bulk, which of course supports SPDIF Digital output. I bought expesi've optical cable that I could finally use my hifi 5. speakers with movies trought computer. I have new 700 euro amplifier, and it supports everything, so the problem isn't with that one, anyways, let's get touch with the real problem.
    What ever drivers I'm using, I can't find the digital output section anywhere. Creative drivers has one SPDIF-button, but it affects nowhere. So, I can't even get the Digital Sound on, because windows mixer has no button for that with my windows xp, weird. I also tried to install windows vista, and there wasn't either any options, where I could put the digital output on.
    Which drivers and which add-ons should I install to get that Digital Output to work.
    If I manage to find the button for digital output from some drivers, can I also listen music while it's connected via optical-digital cable, or am I just able to hear sound from dolby digital movies? Is it even possible to get everything work with my optical cable (music/games and movies at the same time).

    . Your card doesn't have optical output, only "coaxial" digital. You will need a stereo (or camcorder) cable with one mini jack on one end and 2 (or 3) RCA connectors on the other. The white RCA will be the one you need.
    The setting is on the "Creative AudioHQ" at the "Surround Mixer" selection. It is called "Digital Output Only". Or if you use the little icon on the taskbar, at the "Speakers" on "Speaker Selection" you have the same option (a check mark under the selection of speakers).
    2. If you read the FAQ, you will get surround sound (5.) ONLY from DVD-Video that are encoded in DolbyDigital or DTS and ONLY if you pass-trough the digital signal to the receiver to do the decoding. In ALL other cases you will get STEREO PCM signal.
    3. If your receiver is a decent one you should have an analog surround input (5. analog input). in that one you can plug the analog outputs from your card in order to have surround sound all the time (like in the games).

      ('A66-6', '10');I know things would have been easier with a good normalized table design. however unfortunately, I am taking over another programmer works and I am trying to look for a good solution.
    I am here trying to create a hierarchy structure. the idea behind it is as following
    if we start-off with List_ID = A11-1 and List_model = 1, then we are going to have the have the following children associated with it
    A22-2, A33-3 and A55-5
    now, these children have children of their own and the idea is to look in the t2_concept table to determine the latest list_model and utilize it in the recursion, so in this case if you look at t2_concept for A44-4 it has a max_list_model of A and we are then going to go back to t1_concept and determine all the associated children for A44-4 which are B22-2, B33-3 and B44-4 and we continue with this approach till the end.
    this is output I want by the way
    LEVEL      List_ID          
       1          A22-2
       1          A33-3
       1          A44-4
       2          B22-2
       2          B33-3
       2          B44-4
       1          A55-5
       2          C11-1
       2          C22-2I know things would have been easier with a good normalized table design. however unfortunately, I am taking over another programmer works and I am trying to look for a good solution.
    All help and questions are appreciated.

    Hi,
    If you can't normalize the tables in reality, you can normalize them on the fly, like this:
    WITH     joined_data      AS
         SELECT     t1.*
         ,     t2.max_list_model
         FROM           t1_concept     t1
         LEFT OUTER JOIN      t2_concept     t2  ON    t1.list_num     = t2.list_num
    --     WHERE        ...      -- If you have other filtering, do as much as possible here
    SELECT       LEVEL
    ,       list_num
    FROM       joined_data          j
    START WITH        list_id     IN ('A11-11')     -- Or any given values
    CONNECT BY        list_id     = PRIOR list_num
         AND        list_model     >= PRIOR max_list_model
    ORDER SIBLINGS BY  list_num
    ;You may not need a sub-query; joins are done before START WITH and CONNECT BY, but it's often faster if you do the joins in a separate sub-query.
    Is the problem here that, for purposes of this query, you don't want to consider 'B11-1' to be a child of 'A44-4' because list_model &gt; list_num? That's what the 2nd condition in the CONNECT BY clause is doing. The query above produces the results you want, but the condition I posted looks backwards to me.
    Edited by: Frank Kulash on Aug 16, 2011 2:37 PM
    Mystery solved: list_model and max_list_model are strings, so '8' is greater than '13'.
    The following works for the sample data already given:
    WITH     joined_data      AS
         SELECT     t1.*
         ,     t2.max_list_model
         FROM           t1_concept     t1
         LEFT OUTER JOIN      t2_concept     t2  ON    t1.list_num     = t2.list_num
    --     WHERE        ...      -- If you have other filtering, do as much as possible here
    SELECT       LEVEL
    ,       list_num
    FROM       joined_data          j
    START WITH        list_id     IN ('A11-11')     -- Or any given values
    CONNECT BY        list_id     = PRIOR list_num
         AND        LPAD ( list_model                    -- This condition has been changed
                      , 1000
                   )     <= PRIOR LPAD (max_list_model, 1000)
    ORDER SIBLINGS BY  list_num
    ;and it may even work in your real data. (I have no way of knowing yet.)

  • The infamous "Capture encountered a problem" once again

    Hi all, I'm sorry to bother you with an often discussed issue but I haven't found any solution yet, it's driving me crazy and I desperately need someone's help.
    "Capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape. This could be due to a problem with the tape. Capture has been aborted and your clip has been saved"
    This problem occurs only seconds after starting the capturing process. Regardless of where on the tape I start. My camera is a Canon XL1s, but I also encounter the capture problems with my Sony consumer cam.
    Ok, what have I tried so far:
    - capturing the footage using the "non-controllable device" setting.
    - Preferences - advanced - switch off the "abort when dropped frames etc" setting
    - replaced the Firewire cable
    - using iMovie to capture This seems to go well, but after the capture the program crashes.
    Any other suggestions? I have to mention that I have used the "movie" setting on my camera. This similar to the "progressive" mode on Panasonic cameras.
    Thanks a lot for your help
    Siebe

    Are you using capture now? I found I get the best result by logging the clips first.. making sure the "in" setting is at least a few seconds in from any possible glitch in the tape (new scene or blue screen) and using batch capture.
    This also seems to work better on one of my cameras than the others with the same tape.. so try it on both..
    Dont know if that will work for you.. but its the best I was able to come up with for me!

  • GZip problem (once again)

    Hi,
    I have a byte[] containing data compressed in GZip. I'm using the inflater for decompression but i receive this error:
    java.util.zip.DataFormatException: unknown compression methodAnother, rather stupid, question i have is - does the GZipInputStream reads and decompresses the data or does it leave it as is?
    Thanks,

    java.util.zip.DataFormatException: unknown
    compression methodSome code?
    Another, rather stupid, question i have is - does the
    GZipInputStream reads and decompresses the
    data or does it leave it as is?I am guessing you mean "does it alter the orginal file", no. Infact it does not even know if it is a file. The Stream could come from anything (HTTP server for example).

  • Hello once again.. i have formatted my external Hard drive it using exFAT, now my windows cant detect my device, can u plzz help me the whole purpose is getting ruined, i use Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

    hello once again.. i have formatted my external Hard drive it using exFAT, now my windows cant detect my device, can u plzz help me the whole purpose is getting ruined, i use Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

    This is a problem with the Mac OS X implementation of exFAT. I've had the same problem.
    Best is to use a Windows box to format the drive exFAT. Then it can be read by both Windows and Mac OS.
    But aren't Macs supposed to "Just Work"? Not in this case.

  • Error message: your computer booted up once again because of a problem

    I have a Macbook Pro retina. Regularly i have a pop up window with the above mentioned error message. Regularly when i open up the lid of my macbook it shows booting all the used programs once again. Then it shows after booted up all the used programs the error message: your computer booted up once again because of a problem. I have the option to ignore or to send the rapport to Apple. Also sometimes my macbook is very warm and the battery is drained for a big deal. What the **** is wrong with it.

    If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let them deal w/it.

  • I am on windows 7 and I upgraded to 10.0.2 and now it will not open. I have removed firefox completely and uploaded it again and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version and once again nothing.

    I am on windows 7 and I upgraded to the newest verison of firefox and now it will not open. I have removed firefox completely and uploaded it again and that did not work. I then made sure it could get through my firewall and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version hoping that would do it and once again nothing. It will not open at all. Please help - is there a live chat or a number to talk to someone at Firefox?

    I think when uninstalling you may also have to choose (tick) to delete the preferences and other personal data like the bookmarks, stored passwords etc. to erase completely. If you are installing afresh, please try right-clicking on the file and '''Run as administrator''' to install. And when uninstalling, please also make sure choose to delete all data and also manually delete any '''Mozilla''', '''Mozilla Firefox''' or '''Firefox''' from %appdata%, %localappdata% and %programfiles%. You can open a location by typing for eg. %appdata% in the '''Run''' box (Windows key + R). You may also have to check the '''VirtualStore''' folder in %localappdata%. Files in the VirtualStore can be problematic. I think a clean installation may help.

    Please note that using system restore would usually damage the Firefox installation.

  • I can open the window only once, once i close it, i need to restart my laptop to open firefox again

    i can open my firefox window only once, if i close it, i cannot open it again, it is not working. i need to restart my laptop again to open it. This had been happening from the date i did the recent update for the new version.

    No, as many times as you need. Log into the App store with the same Apple ID you used when you first downloaded it. Where it says Purchase,  option click and it will change to install. Next time you download it, before you install, keep a copy on a USB drive or external drive to save downloading it again and wasting power and Bandwidth.
    Good Luck

  • Macbook Pro Memory (Once Again) & Other Problems

    Been looking once again at memory for my Late 2011 Macbook Pro and altho i can upgrade to 16GB i have been told by an Autherised apple repairer and supplier that 16GB would be far too much for what i use my macbook pro for and that 8GB would be a good upgrade.
    I have been told from "Kappy" on another post that i have the following problem
    "your free memory is a little low, and you have PsgeOuts greater than zero which all means you are running low on memory for the number of concurrent applications running. Some disk swapping is occurring and that should start slowing down the computer. It will also lead to drive thrashing which can cause more heat from the drive and more slowing down along with the SBOD"
    Now if i upgrade from my standard 4GB to 8GB would this help with the above comment that kappy has pointed out ?
    I have also found this on ebay and im thinking thats its a good buy, Can someone confirm that this is the correct memory and thats its a cause of plug and play in my late 2011 macbok pro 13"

    This may work, try deleting the Yahoo email account from your phone and then re-add it, using your new Yahoo password.
    If that doesn't work, log into your Yahoo account from a computer and double-check that you are entering the correct password. Also, your password may be case sensitive, so enter it into your iPhone the exact the same way you created it.

  • MDT 2012 deploy OS from USB external drive failed - need to unplug and plug it once again

    We are using MDT 2012 and deploying Windows 7 using media (USB external hard drive). We can successfully deploy Windows 7 32 bit using this method but there is a problem with deploying Windows 7 64bit. This problem appears only on HP EliteBook 840. We can
    boot into WinPE 64 bit and can start proper task sequence, all image is applied then after restart, before logon screen appears there is an error saying that cannot find litetouch.vbs script. After clicking ok, I can logon to Windows and there is no usb external
    drive recognized. But when I unplug and plug usb drive once again it is recognized by Windows and can be used. I can see that Windows install some drivers just after plug it again
    I checked BIOS looking for some USB power options - there is no such settings. And 32 bit deployment works ok. So this is not a case. Looks for me like a problem with proper usb drivers for 64 bit. I download all drivers from HP website (driver pack and
    drivers only for USB 3.0). We are using make and model matching in MDT - works ok for all the rest hardware models. Any idea how to troubleshoot it?

    Not sure what's going on here. Is this a USB "Flash" drive or a USB "Hard Drive". There *Is* a distinction.
    I *thought* that MDT would copy itself to the c:\minint\scripts folder to continue installation.
    Next time, when you see this error, Press Shift-F10 to get into a cmd.exe prompt. Can you find litetouch.vbs on any of the drives? Does the USB Drive appear?
    IF in fact, the USB Drive is not appearing after the 1st reboot, then you have a problem. Why did the USB 3.0 driver not install. Check the Driver Installation Logs to verify.

  • Once again, I need help...I'm starting to hate this board

    Ok, I'm going to start from the beginning. When I first built this computer last year, (specs at the bottom) everything ran seemlessly. I upgraded to WinXP and no problems. Then my hardrive started screwing up around mid-summertime. The computer would freeze, crash, ect. Various things. After doing some research, running diagnostics and calling IBM, it was decided that the drive had gone bad. So I took it out, and bought a new western digital. After installation of the drive, and installing XP on the newly formatted drive, I expected everything to work fine. It didn't. First, there were blue and black screens of death. Sometimes the blue screens would mention something about IRQ's not less or equal, sometimes something else. Sometimes the computer would just restart for no reason. So I reformatted again. This fixed the blue screen problem and for about a day, everything (I thought) was cool. Think again. To start, I couldn't run any 3d application for an extended period of time without it freezing. And if I set the CPU to 1.2 ghz (where it should be!) it gets even worse. I even tried uping the voltage a little. No help. Sometimes the computer would just (once again) restart for no reason. Especially while using winamp. I tried different drivers, different bioses, readjusting my fan on my cpu, running memtest86 (which showed the memory to be fine). I have read through MANY threads on the forums and tried many other things, with no luck. The current situation, after attempting to install WinXP servicepack 1 is that I cant even load Windows. It always gets to the point where the blue bar is moving across while it says WinXP, and then the computer restarts. I ran tests to check how the powersupply was running during use, nd all the numbers looked good. The thing that really pisses me off, is that everything use to work fine, before the IBM drive crashed. Guys, I need some expertise and a Beer. I can do the second one myself and will gladly get a case for whoever can help me straighten this out! Even if I just have some part that needs replaced, I just need answers! Thanks guys!
    Athlon 1.2 ghz 266fsb
    Msi nforce k7n420pro
    300W powersupply
    Integrated graphics
    256 mb Crucial memory
    yamaha 24x burner
    kenwood 52x cdrom
    floppy drive
    d-link wireless network card (could this be a problem? I was having problems before I got this card)

    All these guys with there power supply is a bunch of bunk and the combine this and that. a decent 300w psu will run the nforce with onboard vid or a geforce 3 easely. and forget all the combined crap.
    Heres what my 300watt power could handle before I gave it to my kid.
    MoBo.
    1900xp
    Geforce3
    Scsi card
    Modem
    2- IBM 60 GB 7200rpm
    Cold cathode ray tube 12"
    CD ROM
    Smart media reader
    And whatever else I plugged into the usb port and the only time I ever had Maveric's problem, which I had the same thing was when switch system driver from 1.0 to 1.05 they gave me the same thing he is having. so I stayed with the 1.0 until the 1.13's came along and they worked well.
    I suggest his is a driver issue IRQ not less then, Bksod or random restarts or other blue screen errors.
    Try the 1.00's
    Oh by the way now my kid uses my old 300watter on his 1900xp nforce machine, with all kind of toys and his is also stable. So Wonky and Athlonix quit suggesting that a 300psu is not sufficent when in fact it may work very well. oh and one more thing Athlonix GET OFF THE SOUND CARD THING!!! the onboard works, can't you get that in your head. Only yours doesn't every one elses does. can someone draw a picture of that

    Are you running any of Symantec's (Norton) or McAfee's Internet security products or anything similar, or an antivirus/antispyware application? There have been reports that some such utilities treat an upgrade to iTunes as a new application and can block the application from connecting. So you have to go in and reset the utility to allow iTunes. The same thing can happen if you upgrade the security product (this has particularly been a problem with recent McAfee upgrades).
    Check the settings for your utility. If iTunes is still listed, remove and re-enable the exception for iTunes. Consult your utility's documentation for the appropriate procedure; you can find instructions for Norton on Symantec's web page for iTunes. You may also need to check the built-in Windows firewall as well.
    Hope this helps.

  • Once again, iTunes thinks this is the first time I am connecting

    I am not sure what exactly is going on, but today once again I noticed that when I started iTunes (9.1.1) on my laptop (win XP pro/SP3) I got a welcome message and "what's new" window. So I assume that iTunes thinks this is the first time it has started on this computer but clearly, it is not.
    I reported this issue earlier on this forum but got no response (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2243137&tstart=0) so I am re-posting.
    Some of the settings I care about a lot were all undone - like sync settings for my iPhone (all sync settings were unchecked), and podcast settings (keeping all episodes for some podcasts and all unplayed episodes of the others).
    This is highly annoying and I want to know if there is anyone else who has observed this problem, and if so, what the resolution was.
    Thanks in advance!

    Best if you try and explain what you are trying to acheive.
    Iphoto is a different paradigm than you're used to. I don't understand why you are trying to transfer your edited photos back to an external disk.
    There are tutorials here
