After viewing 5 to 10 minutes of video window 7 slows and shut down.

I'm running Flash player with chrome under Window 7 home basic 64-bit on a Dell N5010 and have this problem: After viewing a Flash movie, my system slows to a crawl, while CPU usage (per Task Manager) shows nearly 100% -- even after I quit chrome -- and
even when I am doing only mundane things like opening a text file in Notepad. Only re-booting helps then.
After some days it induced a new problem: After viewing 5 to 10 minutes of flash movies (from web dailymotion etc), my system would suddenly power off with no warning.
So I completely uninstalled Flash Player and reinstalled Flash player--the latest version, straight from Adobe--and as soon as I played my first movie, the CPU usage shot up and stayed up around 80% even though I was doing nothing! Task Manager says that
it's all going to ordinary things that shouldn't take any time. It will be OK after I reboot, until I play my next video (note: youtube works fine).
why is this happening and how can I prevent it? I'm getting tired of re-booting just to get my computer back after each web site which pops up a movie.

Hi prajag,
I agree with btitishdhez ,you may need to work with another browser to check whether this issue is related to the browser.
“After viewing 5 to 10 minutes of flash movies (from web dailymotion etc), my system would suddenly power off with no warning.”
When this issue occurs again, please check the Event Viewer to collect error messages of this
suddenly power off event.
Apart from this ,I recommend you to check whether the Flash Player have been removed totally before you reinstalled the Flash player. The Flash Player has a specialized uninstall program.
Uninstall Flash Player

After using PC Suite, windows won't shut down

Hi,
I'm using bootcamp on a Mac(laptop),
running Win XP, SP2
PC Suite 6.84.10.3
Nokia 6288
I connect to the internet via bluetooth and everything works fine until I diconnect. Most of the time when I click disconnect(and every time when I ttake the phone away till the signal disconnects), it won't connect again. Infact, it actually no longer searches for devices, will not detect the phone any more when I go through the "Get Connected" process.
What's really annoying me is that windows will not shut down. It hangs on a blank blue screen after shutting everything else down. It also will no longer sleep or hibernate.
I feel that its running something heavy in the backgrownd as my laptop gets quite hot after a while.
This is a major problem not as its so damn annoying, but cousing Windows to crash constantly and hard rebooting windows couses damage and ongoing problems with windows. We know this operating system has plenty enough problems as it is.
Any help with this issue would be massively appreciated.
Thanks,
Kia

it sounds to me that the driver for the bluetooth radio is failing on you.
to prevent the computer from going to sleep, etc, the driver must be stuck in a wait state without a timer providing failure detection. you may want to send a bug report to someone (i imagine that would be apple, but i dont know - it's certainly not nokia, and beyond the scope of what microsoft ships with windows).
on my powerbook i sometimes have a similar issue as you have described (in macosx, not windows, since i dont have an intel chip). when i have this problem, my bluetooth preferences cannot display my laptop's bluetooth name. perhaps you see this issue too?
in macosx you can turn on/off the bluetooth radio. when i power cycle my bluetooth radio my problems subside. i believe this is due to the driver being unloaded (regardless of its failed state) and reloaded again when the hardware is once more available.
i don't know how to turn on/off bluetooth radios in windows. microsoft's bluetooth implementation is notorious. their initial offerings lacked basic features all over the place (microsoft just extended their serial port drivers to tunnel through the bluetooth hardware - so in lala land bluetooth was nothing more than a serial port). i'm sure they've improved it since i lasted played with it, but i don't know that they've added everything that your hardware supports.
maybe try using nokia's macosx software instead, and synchronizing between osx and windows via OS provided tools?
good luck,
-jared
edit:
what i mean to say is, perhaps use Parallels instead of Bootcamp. connect to the internet via macosx and share the internet connection from macosx to your windows apps.Message Edited by bitflung on 16-Oct-200705:03 PM

I don't think it's exactly an incomplete installation brody, but most likely in-correct permissions somewhere along the line that either happened, or became magnified during the upgrade. Also, it could be corruption as well.
First thing to do, is boot up holding down Shift key to do a safe-boot so we an clean up any corrupted OS caches, after that do another reboot, but go to the Lion recovery, and scan the HD for errors, repair any if you find them, and then try to do a Repair Permissions job.
That should fix the issue, if not, we can start doing a PRAM reset and SMC for good measure.

I have problems with about 35 PCs which are in AD windows server 2008. And all computers need really long time to shut down, some even more than 10 minutes. I have maded shutdown trace for one of PCs. Can someone helps me find out what cause that long shut

I never left an open problem....I search, dig and ask, until it's solved....

Sounds like there is an issue with possibly having to many group policies or some other network lag. Are the users "my documents" folder redirected to the server? Possibly using Sync Center to backup the files? If yes, I would check sync center
to make sure it syncs at other intervals besides shutdown. Possibly when they are working or idle for a designated period.

Why the video is slow and stutter on the viewer clip?

Why the video is slow and stutter when I drag the mouse on the cursor to check from left to right?
I just upgraded to imac 20" and I had never had this problem with my old mac. The old mac seemed to be smoother than this one.
The only difference was my 1 TB external hardrive is linkup using USB 2.0 this time round since I've not purchased the Firewire 800 yet. Does using USB 2.0 cause this problem?

I noticed something from my previous iMac. When I drag the cursor from left to right, there is no sound when I'm dragging. Thus, that makes me think that the absence of audio produce smoother flow. How do I disable the audio while I'm working on the viewer then?

Slow start up and shut down after Zenworks installation

I hope someone can help me out on this one. Not sure if I am posting the
right forum or not but here we go. After I installed Zenworks on our PC's
here at work, we have a noticed a distinct difference in how long it takes
for the PC's to start up and shut down. Before installation, everything
was very quick, like it should be. Now it seems to take some users 3-5
minutes to start and shut down their PC's. The machines are running
several different OS'es. Windows 98SE, Windows XP Pro SP1 and Windows XP
SP2. No one OS has more problems than the other. Has anyone heard of
Zenworks causing this issue or heard of a way to prevent this? I would
really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!

G4 MDD FW800 starts up and shuts down after several seconds

Hi all,
My G4 MDD FW800 DP.1,48 starts up and shuts down after about 20 seconds. I Have reset PMU and checked battery voltage, witch was OK. (also had it out for 30 minutes with no power connected etc.) I have video and also tried with NOTHING connected. But still it just powers down and failes to enter start up procedure.
Last time I had it running I pulled my iPod, beacause the computer did't see it, the next thing I saw on screen was the message to hold the power button for 5 to restart, after that I got the problem described above.
Anybody?
Thanks,

Windows 8/8.1 - No Option for "Install Updates and Shut Down"

We’ve got a handful of Windows 8 workstations and I’ve noticed that users don’t get the “Install Updates and Shut Down” option when they shut their systems down. Nor do they get the updates icon in the notification area.
Instead, all they get is the following message at the logon screen:
There is no way I can expect my users to do this.
I need to ensure that the updates are installed when the user shuts down.
There must be a way of configuring Group Policy to allow Windows 8 workstations to prompt to install updates when the user shuts down.
I cannot implement an option whereby updates are installed automatically without the user being aware. If updates start installing automatically then there is the potential for loss of work if a user is away from their desk for a long period of time and
their system just restarts to complete the installation.
Our current group policy settings are below. This works fine for the Windows 7 workstations.
I presume others have experienced this? Can anyone offer any guidance?
Thanks
Current Group policy settings:-
Client Computers Policy:-
Configure Automatic Updating – 3 – Auto download and notify for install
I don't work for Microsoft - I just use their products.

I am sorry but this is NOT an answer.
You're correct. It's not. Microsoft has some overzealous contractors who seem to think any response is "the answer". I've unmarked the post, because, in fact, it was merely "additional information" which may or may not have addressed the
original issue.
I, like the original poster, have several computers that do NOT offer 'Install Updates' in any of the power menus and definitely do NOT install the updates during either a restart or a shutdown.
Now *THAT* is an entirely *DIFFERENT* situation than what the Original Poster has offered here, so the appropriate thing for you to do is to start a NEW THREAD and fully describe the environment and symptoms of the problem and what you've done (if anything)
to try to identify, isolate, or remediate the undesirable behavior.
The PCs I have are Windows 8.1 installed from a partner copy of Windows 8 and upgraded.
I'm intrigued with this "partner copy of Windows 8" thing. Have you asked "the partner" what they customized in the installation image before you actually installed the product???
Can someone please offer a SOLUTION as opposed to parroting what SHOULD happen.
Not until you provide us with some actionable information. :-)

Reboot and shut down scripts failed on open dialogue window

I have a headless server.
It is scheduled to shut down at 01.00 AM via the control panel.
I have a script (tested it works) to shut down the server should the control panel fail.
tell application "System Events"
shut down
end tell
Should this fail for some reason there is a second script that tell the computer to reboot shortly before the control panel schedule should start the server.
tell application "System Events"
restart
end tell
Yesterday it failed to execute either script. ITunes had been running and checked for updates and found one. It was installed and this resulted in the dialogue box appearing that wants you to promise not to steal the code etc. No person there to click OK so it hung and cancelled all processes.
So this stopped the shut down as well as the reboot.
The reason I have this script is as to make sure the computer has no hanging programmes or windows and shuts down and fires up on the desired time.
Anybody knows how to make it force to quit the programme?
Or better would be (and my preference too) to have it check if such windows are open and OK them before shutting down.
I know this is only a one in thousand occurrence, but it would be nice to have it not happen again, this time I was there to fix it.
Thanks.

'b4' - ?
Your problem is not with the provided instructions; but, the version of 'Script Editor', SE, you use.
I use SE, v. 2.0 (43) from a 'Panther' (MacOS X 10.3.x) installation. This application version works on PPC Macs running 'Panther' and 'Tiger' (MacOS X 10.4.x), and Intel Macs running 'Tiger' and (dog crap) 'Leopard' (MacOS X 10.5.x). At least here.
The features and (intuitive) ease of use of SE v. 2.0 are superior to its equivalents of 'Tiger' and (dog crap) 'Leopard'. Besides allowing one to view the 'Description' textarea field of a 'Run Only' script, SE v. 2.0 allows one to select all of the 'Suites' titles in the left side list, click on the right side panel, and then search for any character, word, or string - such as 'a', 'is', 'the', 'reference', 'in MHz' - anything. Try such a search with SE v. 2.1 and v. 2.2.
Try this example:
Select SEs' 'Window, Library' menu item. A window titled 'Standard Additions.asdictionary' will appear.
From the 'Library' windows' list, double click on 'StandardAdditions'.
SE v. 2.0 only - Select all of the suites of the left side panel, then click once on the right side panel.
In the search field (SE v 2.1 and v. 2.2) or search window (SE v. 2.0) enter 'in MHz', and press the <return> key. Did SE v. 2.1 or 2.2 find it? SE v. 2.0 goes right to it; even highlighting the search string result.
As an exercise - waste your time looking for 'in MHz' in SE v. 2.1 and / or v. 2.2.
Hint 01: Search for 'system'. Now you have a one (1) in four (4) chance of locating the user desired string (of 'in MHz') by viewing the text of each listed result.
Hint 02: Try searching by 'Description' - click on the search 'magnifying glass' and a popup button of choices appears - click on the 'Description' menu item. Still, unlike with SE v. 2.0, SE v. 2.1 or v. 2.2 does not actually highlight the located character, word, or string.
Ok, you finally located the line of 'in MHz'; but now - you want to see all of the commands of the related 'Suite' - how do you do it? In SE v. 2.0 you may have to scroll up a little; but, in SE v. 2.1 and v. 2.2 ...

I believe you've posted this multiple times. Once is all that's needed. Also, please don't use all caps. Aside from the fact it means you're shouting it's also harder to read than mixed case.
The error means a bad fan motor or the HDD has failed. In your case it's the latter. You can try the following:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation.

Satellite Pro A300D gets to warm and shuts down after short time. HELP!!!

Hallo together,
i bought the Satellite Pro A300D notebook 3 weeks ago. Since the beginning I have the problem that the notebook gets to warm and shuts down within an hour!
I dont run any high performance application and I keep the left side of the notebook free so that the warm air can get away! I already cleaned the heatpipe by using a hoover.
That couldnt be! I need the notebook for work and thats impossible...
What can I do? Do I have it to send in?
For help I am thankfull

Hi there DerVogel ,
Sounds like a Heat related issue ????????
Whenever it shutdown automatically does it turn on right away ? One symptom of a heat related issue is, it takes about several minutes before you can turn it back on again.
Here is how you can isolate the issue since it could also be a software related problem.
1) Turn on the system Tap F2 and boot on the system setup screen ( BIOS )
2) Just stay on the Bios , If it doest shutdown on the bios then you might need to reinstall windows. or check if system is infected with spyware or a virus.
But if it does the same thing then the best thing to so is to bring it to a Repair Center or Call Tech support for a depot service repair.
Cheers ! hope this will help.
