Boot Issue with New Radeon X800 XL on DVI connection

I've just bought a connect 3d radeon x800 xl and installed it in my machine. I had a radeon 9700 pro die on me 2 weeks ago and I'd reverted back to a Gainward ti4200 in the meantime - both of which I had running on exactly the same specs, the latter through the dvi connection.
However, when I turn the machine on the machine starts to go through it's POST routine and then it somehow 'loses' the display, before it finishes searching through the sata raid arrays and before I can get into the bios setup pages.
Strangely enough, the POST routine runs fine if it's connected to the bog standard vga connection.
I did think it might be the power supply considering all the other posts on the forum and although it's not the best brand in the world, it still delivers 20 amps at 12v. Anyone any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thanks in advance
Specs:
MSI K8T NEO FIS2R (bios v1.9)
s754 Athlon 3000+
2 x 512mb DDR400 major branded memory (samsung I think)
Western Digital 200gb SATA hard drive
MSI Combo DVD/CD-Writer
CWT 450w PSU (12v: 20a, 5v: 20a, 3.3v: 28a)

The DVI-I port on the 5770 and other advanced cards like it has the VGA signals directly accessible with a very simple adapter. The blade at the end of the connector and the four pins around it, plus Horizontal Sync from the top row of the grid are EXACTLY VGA, no translation required.
Converting Mini DisplayPort to VGA is one of the most complex conversions possible, and if you are having trouble with that conversion, and pushing the resolution up, I am not at all surprised.
If your DVI display is not wider that 1920 wide, I suggest you use it on a Mini DisplayPort, with a simple adapter that forces the Mini DisplayPort into "Single-Link DVI compatibility mode". As long as you do not plan to run Three displays, this solution will work with an inexpensive adapter.

This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Issue with camera it says "there is no connected camera" in may macbook pro

issue with camera it says "there is no connected camera" in may macbook pro

I got that error from PhotoBooth, no connected camera.
After messing around with all the usual suggestions (reset PRAM, repair permissions, etc.), I tried plugging in an external USB camera (happened to be a ProScope) and - for no apparent reason - the internal iSight camera sprang to life and has been working fine ever since.
Worth a try - any USB camera should do it.

I have tried turning everything off and back on again. Desktop and laptop are working fine. Sometimes it turns on suddenly and I can use it for like 20 mins but then shuts off again. Same thing is happening with my dad's iphone, Help.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router

I am having issue with iphone 5 bluetooth , not able to connect to my honda CRV

Don't know if you could consider this an Apple issue. I know you are probably frustrated, and I am not defending Apple here, just saying that the iPhone does not update to support individual automobiles, the automobile manufactures update to support the Bluetooth profiles.The iPhone has the latest Bluetooth stack and supports a number of things. Problems generally revolve around the manufacturer not supporting the lastest Bluetooth version and have to update their systems. Check with Honda, they are probably aware of this, and if you search the forum, you will find a number of posts regarding the CR-V.

Driver issue FIXED in Vista / boot camp with new, unibody macbook pro!!

Hay people, I found a fix for the freezing issues with Vista running in Boot camp with the new, unibody Macbook pros. The driver for the 9600M Gt is no good if you install it from the Apple 2.1 version driver disc (Mac osx disc)for some (most) of us.
I needed to go to Nvidia's site and download the one from DECEMBER 08. If you click the "download drivers" tab on the site, scroll past the current driver it wants you to look at (go to the near bottom of page), click the archives, and input your OS version. Also input "Gforce" and "M" series when needed. It will give you a choice of two drivers. DO NOT CHOOSE THE FEB 09 Driver. Thats the BAD driver for most of us. Choose the DECEMBER 08 driver. Download and enjoy. Be sure to roll back the VGA driver (or the current driver) first before you install this. It should work.
I've been through the ringer with this for weeks now and have even tried to take my MBP back to swap for a new one. Apple wont have any of that so I thought I was SOL. Not quite. This DOES work for me with Vista. It also works for Windows & if you have it handy.
By the way, I am posting this for people who HAVE HAD THE FREEZING problems, not for people who haven't. Apparently there are some out there who are running Vista just fine on their unibody MBS's. Most of us are not.
Cheer's-----Seattle, where the evil empire looms dark

This never worked. I sold that machine and got a new 17" unibody. IT, by the way, works just fine. I KNEW it was that **** 15'. It took 30 more seconds to boot up I found out also.

New P7N SLI Platinum Boot Issue with PS/2 Keyboard [Solved but RAID problem now]

This issue taken me back !!!! Never thought I might face issue with a PS/2 Keyboard.
Here it is.. I just assembled my new system...
P7N SLI Platinum Motherboard
E8400 CPU
EVGA 256-P2-N751-TR GeForce 8600 GT Video Card
Creative Soundblaster Audio Card
So, before I boot, I connected good old PS/2 Keyboard. The POST Screen comes up that says Press DEL to enter BIOS Setup... but then, it reboots.. indefinitely... I have no idea why it does that. However, if I boot the PC with no PS/2 Keyboard connected, POST screen comes up and that's it.. (no reboot). So, you see, I cannot proceed further in anyway.... I cannot go beyond POST without a keyboard, but then with the keyboard it reboots indefinitely... kinda catch 22 situation
Any suggestion / ideas that anyone can offer here???

Hello Folks... it took long time to "solve the issue that had to begin with"....
I purchased a cheapo Celeron processor to get into the BIOS and update it... but it didn't even work... I couldn't boot at all. So, I called MSI and they asked me to RMA it. They replaced my MOBO with the latest BIOS - which was good news
So, now, I'm able to boot - good news...
Now, this is an upgrade for me.... from my previous MOBO. My boot drive was RAIDed (RAID 0). So, now, I will have to RAID my drives again and run Win XP repair. I was able to RAID my drives and all good... now, I went into Windows installation and did F6 to install NVIDIA Raid.... but, here is my problem, when the prompt asks me to input the floppy drive, and when I did it.... it re-prompts me to put the floppy drive again... I see that the floppy drive is read... but, for some reason it doesn't detect the files in there properly.... I downloaded nVidia C72+MCP55 SATA RAID / AHCI Driver (For floppy driver) for windows xp 32-bit and copied the sataraid folder contents into the floppy. Now, here I am stuck again....
Anybody experienced this problem?

Serious boot issues with Powerbook G3 (Wallstreet II, OS 9.2.2)

Hello,
I have major issues with a Powerbook Wallstreet II I got recently. When it's finally running, it works just as well as Wallstreet Powerbooks usually do, no errors, no crashing, smooth performance, everything fine.
But booting it up is, to put it mildy, a bloody pain. First off, it does not power up, when it's only connected to batteries. I have two of them, both working fine for several hours when put in after bootup, but no matter if I place one or both of them in any bays, nothing happens when pressing or holding the power button (apart from screen flickering and speaker crackling). I'm always forced to connect the power adapter, which immediatly (without pressing the power button) causes the power LED to light and the cooling fan insanely spins up for a mere couple of split seconds until everything wents silent again.
Having reached this point, I can disconnect the power supply (if at least one battery is in) and usually hear a nice "BONG" when pressing the power button once again. Thereafter, nothing happens for a oppressive 30 seconds, then, the screen finally lits and shows the Mac OS 9.2.x splash screen on monochrome background. Sadly, this is already the end of most of my first boot up tries, because at this point, I usually get told by a dialogbox that a bus error has just happened. The box also has a nice "Reboot" button, which I cannot click as the trackpad hangs as well.
Pressing ShiftFn+CrtlPower works here in about one out of three time, so in most cases, I have to go through the same procedure. Pull out power sources, give a shot via PSU, have it iddling for 30 secs. In most cases, this second try lets me pass splash screen, loader, yes, it even lets me see the desktop, the taskbar, the HDD icon and... pouf. Success is so close but no, it has to suddenly drop into sleep mode and
a short press on power proves the apprehension true, that it won't be easy to wake it up again. Hrmph. But I don't give that easily. So pulling everthing out for the second time, connect PSU for the third time and look there, it fully boots.
Three tries to successfully boot is about average at first try series. Afterwards, it seems to be "warmed up" and things get easier. I made a log recently with 5 test series, made at very frequent intervals:
Series 1:
1. Bootup: Bus Failure (Hard reboot fails) (bays empty)
2. Bootup: Sleep Mode (bays empty)
3. Bootup: Sleep Mode (bays empty)
4. Bootup: Sleep Mode (both batteries)
5. Bootup: Bus Failure (Hard reboot successful)(both batteries)
6. Bootup: Success (left battery, right bay empty)
Series 2:
1. Bootup: Success(left battery, right bay empty)
Series 3:
1. Bootup: Bus Failure (!!!) (left battery, right bay empty)
2. Bootup: Success (bays empty)
Series 4:
1. Bootup Success (left bay empty, right battery)
Series 5:
1. Bootup Success (both batteries)
Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions.

jpl,
Thank you for continuative support.
If you plan on buying a 256MB memory module, the Wallstreet requires
a 256 specifically made for it (and the early iMac
and Lombard). Modules 128MB and smaller can be
generic if they meet the Wallstreet's specs.
Thanks for this information.
You might find it useful to disassemble the 'book to the PMU, carefully remove/reseat the PMU card, then test.
Well, to be honest, I don't have the time to perform this very labour-intensive work. However, I pulled out the large PMU connector (the one that can be reached by lifting the keyboard) and reseated it, without any results. Shouldn't that suffice? Or is there another connection that could need maintenance?
Regarding sleep: There is no display position sensor, only a simple magnet in the right display bezel approximately 4" from the bottom...you can stick a paperclip to it. When the display closes, it triggers a sleep switch located next to the delete key in the side rail.
Ah, okay.
According to Apple, if the powerbook will not run on battery, it could be the charge card or PMU board or power supply card or logic board. However, your 'book apparently runs on battery once started via power adapter.
Actually, it does not allow me to power up, if I attach the adapter right after an unsuccessful try to operate from battery. Even if I remove the batteries (after adapter connection).
It's like it is "crashed" before it's even running. Which means, I have to pull all power sources to be able to perform the resuscitating power up via adaptor.
A normal power manager reset on the Wallstreet is this:
1. If the computer is on, turn it off.
2. Simultaneously press Shift-Fn (function)-Ctrl >(control)-Power.
3. Wait 5 seconds.
4. Press the Power button to restart the PowerBook >computer.
A successful reset will briefly flash the sleep light plus >spin up the fan for a second. If a reset does not solve the >startup and sleep issues, then you will have to look >elsewhere.
I can see the sleep LED and I do hear the fan, however, this didn't help in most cases. After perfoming this action (in a freeze situation), I usually only got rattling noises out of the speakers or screen flashes when trying to power up.
Be sure the powerbook only freezes when closing the display to sleep it.
Well, I noticed it sometimes also freezes when left idle directly after start up (and power save is activated). Later, it comes right back again.
- Is the sleep light blinking before you open the display?
Yes.
- When the display is opened, does the sleep light continue to blink? (It should.)
Yes.
- When you press the power button, do you hear a 'buzz' or some similar noise? If you do, you may have another issue to explore.
No. I usually only hear speaker noise when trying to power up from battery. But oddly enough, the lenght of the sleep light blinks changes when power button is hold down in "frozen sleep".
I would also go to the System Folder > Preferences folder and drag the Energy Saver Preferences to the Trash, close all windows, then restart...a new preference file will be created on restart. You can reset the Energy Saver to your like, then test sleep.
Done.
-Does sleep/wake always work when NOT closing the display? Try this after resetting the power manager and trashing the pref file mentioned below.
If I initiate sleep, yes. If it suspends automatically, well, usually. But not always (see above).

My new Radeon X800 XT gives me... a blue screen

Hi everyone,
I was lucky enough to find a Radeon X800 XT at OWC, and when I install it, all I get are two solid blue monitors. I swapped back to my old video card (9600 Pro) and everything works fine, but when I install the new one...nothing but blue.
- The fan is spinning on the x800xt
- I have installed the drivers and all the updates from ATI.
- I am running OS X (10.4.8)
- I am using the AGP port ( I have an older G5)
Any suggestions? Hopefully it is I who is faulty and not the card...
thanx,

Mac G5 PowerPC Dual 2Ghz, 4 G RAM, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I think either the ATI or Apple website advises not
to install any files, because Tiger already has the
latest versions. Did you try just installing and
starting up?
Anyway, let us know what OWC says. Thanks.
Thought I'd throw in my experience on that. I had to wipe my G5 and installed a fresh copy of Tiger. I ran all the Apple updates from Software Update etc. In my case however I forgot to reinstall any of the ATI software.
After 2 days, the fan on my X800XT would just stop. No warning, nothing, the fan would just stop (and in turn cause the card to start to overheat). After a quick restart/shutdown, the fan would spin right back up. Now, like MANY others have reported, my card's fan makes a lot of noise, so at first I thought the fan was gone. However, since my fan would start right back up after a reboot, I began to look into software stuff.
In the end I reinstalled all the ATI software (prefs pane, and the ROMXtender etc.), and have not had ANY fan issues for almost a month (knock on wood). I know I may have to replace my fan at some point, but these random stops were DEFINATLY a software issue, and just letting the Tiger driver's etc. sit alone caused my fan to just stop.
I know Tiger's updates are more recent than what is on ATI's site, but in my experience, only the ATI software kept my fan from stopping. Just my 2 cents…

Migration Assistant and permissions issues with new Mac Pro

Hi There,
I've not had any significant issues with Migration Assistant in the past but I can't create a reliable system with my new Mac Pro.
After using Migration Assistant during the initial setup, my user account wasn't even transferred. I tried restarting but in the end, I followed these instructions to reset and run the assitant again: http://stationinthemetro.com/2013/11/10/make-mavericks-re-run-the-setup-assistan t
I've just finished running it for a second time, and while the user account is now on my new system, there are so many permissions issues that the system is unusable (I can't even run Safari). Creative cloud, 1Password, safari, Dropbox are all apps that give me Disk i/o or permissions errors.
If I look in the user folder, many directories within it have a red minus icon. I've tried fixing permissions using Disk Utility but something is not right.
In the past, the new system just boots like the old one but this time round, it asked me to create an account after Migration Assistant had finished - is this normal? I used the same username and password as before but I'm not sure Migration Assistantis working properly.
Does anyone know a full-proof way of fixing and transferring my account without having to spend hours downloading OSX for a full erase and install?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks for the reply,
I didn't understand exactly what to put into AppleScript sorry (never used it before) - so I just ran the following from the Terminal:
$ echo $UID
$ sudo chown -R 503 ~
And restarted - everything works now - thanks heaps.
What had happened and is this something I did or did Migration Assistant just get confused?
I have 3 new Mc Pros to setup on Monday so just want to ensure those are hassle free.
Cheers

ISight issues with new macbook pro Retina ?

Hi all, since I have my new MPB with Retina display I have been having some issues with the isight camera, when it first boots in photobooth of facetime sometimes the screen (from the camera) is all blue or green and with some weird line and then it stabilizes for a while but the image is all grainy and looks cheap. The guy at the apple hotline told me to reset the SMC and it seemed to have improved a bit but it's still not that good !
Any ideas on what could be happening ?
Thank you all

You're welcome - I Googled "Macintosh webcams" and came up with quite a few different units.
Good luck,

GPU enhancement issues with ATI Radeon X1900 XT

Upon startup, PS CS4 turns off GPU enhancements and displays the following error message:
"Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software."
Problem is, according to all the research I've done, PS should be perfectly compatible with my Radeon X1900 XT card. To further complicate things, ATI does not appear to have driver updates for Radeon X1900 cards for Intel Macs on their website. Even a Google search doesn't seem to bring up any sites with the drivers. It's maddening!
Is anyone having similar problems, or can anyone offer advice? All Adobe and Apple support seem to recommend is updating my drivers, but of course that doesn't seem possible. Thanks!

I'm having a slightly different problem, but it fits in with what others are saying. I upgraded to CS4 the other day, and starting that night my system (a Mac Pro with the Radeon x1900 card) I have had issues with my display - that is, sometimes the display won't work after waking from sleep. The display is a 23" Cinema.
The rest of the system is fine (I have a laptop so I can peek in and control it remotely), and everything is just as I left it. The display itself responds to being turned on and off using the power button on the side (that is, the tiny light on the front turns on and off...). But the screen itself is pitch black, off entirely.
I took out the video card and it was, indeed, black on the intake with fine dust, so I cleaned that as best I could. That did not solve the problem, however.
Pull the plug to my desktop and plug it into my laptop, and it works just fine. Plug it back into the desktop...dead. The only thing that seems to fix it is shutting it down for a time. I don't know how long is required but it's more than a few minutes (so it's not a simple reset) and it's only been a few days and so far I've just gotten frustrated and left it over night - so it certainly could be related to cooling down.
Seems like Adobe is the culprit as the problem has *never* happened before, and has happened every day since the very day I installed CS4. I'd be reluctant to believe it...if I hadn't spent hours just upgrading to CS4 (I won't go into the legendary problems which plague Adobe's installers).
Given that when I bought this system a couple of years ago this was one of the few video cards I could choose, and it's the high-end of the bunch, there must be a lot of folks out there with this set-up plus CS4...
Sounds like the suggestion is to inhibit performance in CS4 so it doesn't fry my video card? I am running Temperature Monitor, but it doesn't show me that particular stat...

Thank you,

Hi Sri,
To Convert IDOC Flat file into IDOC xml from the given blog, the IDOC flat file should be present in standard format like:
E2EDK01005                    0000047110815000000000001.........
E2EDKA1003                    0000047110815000000000002.........
E2EDKA1003                    0000047110815000000000003..........
E2EDKA1003                    0000047110815000000000004........
The Flat file have relationship as IDOC Number "000004711081500000" and segment sequence "0000001".
If your flat file is not in this formate so i don't think that module is able to convert into IDOC xml. and if your file is already in this format then it may be issue with destinations which are created in NWA.
Thanks
