Brand new MSI GE70 2OC battery won't charge

Hi all
I have a rare issue related with the laptop power system of a brand new GE70 2OC: basically, the battery won't charge.
-In Windows 8, with the battery installed and charger connected to the laptop: the battery does not charge and drains.
-If I boot with a linux live cd, exactly the same happens: there's no charging, and the battery is draining.
And here we go with the mess...:
-If I start windows8 only with the charger connected (battery removed), the computer turns on properly, windows start booting, but before showing the home screen, the laptop turns off. As if power were suddenly removed.
-If I start the same way (only with charger, battery removed), and entered the bios, I can stay here forever: laptop doesn't turn off until I wan't.
-If I start the same way (only with charger, battery removed) with a linux live cd, I can work without problems every time I wan't
It's very strange... If the battery is not dead, I think may be some kind of BIOS or firmware issue, because the failure of "battery not charging" appears in any situation (turned off, in bios, in windows, in linux).
The charger is not broken. It runs smoothly without battery in bios and linux.
I tried a EC Reset. Nothing happens... ¿Any idea?

Thank you both
I'm still in the 7 days money back guarantee from the seller. I've contacted the shop, but still expecting for news.

My brand new mac book pro battery won't charge to 100% it only charges to 99%. What's wrong with it ad how do I fix it?

My new MacBook pro won't charge to 100% battery it will only charge to 99%. Please help!

Nothing is wrong, that is normal. If you let it drop below 93%, it will recharge back to 100%. It is a feature to prolong the life of the battery.

Brand new MSI GE70 major gaming performance issues

Hello.
I bought an MSI GE70-2OD notebook
CPU: i7-4700MQ
GPU: GTX760M/2 GB GDDR5
RAM: DDRIII(L) 8
OS:Windows Ultimate SP1
I have a very weak gaming performance! Ive downloaded all of the drivers on the MSI site and installed them, still I got in Assassins Creed IV around 25-35 fps 1920x1080 resolution all other settings on MINIMUM (off)
The prob. might be with my Nvidia driver, since the MSI afterburner cant recognize its driver version...after I unistalled my graphic driver (several times) I ve tried the Nvidias auto detect option on their official site and it said that it couldnt find any graphics card.
I paid a lot of money for this notebook it would be a shame if it were for nothing, cuz that is what I get from it right now

If you go into Device Manager and look for the video card, is it there? Does it have any ! over it?
It sorta sounds like the video card isn't working to be perfectly honest.
When you play assassin's creed, what color is your power button? I'm guessing it is normally blue, and when you play a game it turns orange I believe.

Brand new Ipod touch 5th generation won't charge.

Hi! So i just got my brand new ipod touch 5th generation in the mail. I went to turn it on but there was no power, so then i plugged it in to charge, but now every time i try to turn it on, the red battery charge symbol shows up, and its been charging for an hour now. I have used many apple products before and they usually dont take that long to charge. Does anyone know what the problem is?
PLEASE HELP!
thanks.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

BRAND NEW MSI x99s Gaming 7 Won't Boot, Debug Code 00

Just completed my build and my pc won't boot. Everything plugged directly into the psu is working but fans plugged into mother board don't spin and getting debug code 00 nothing displayed on screen.

Hmm ok.
What you could do is: try each stick on its own, in every single DIMM slot. Make note which slots/sticks work or dont work. Then add to 1 (known to work) RAM stick and try moving this single one around all DIMMs again. Do the same until you get a failure or if works fine.
Which slots did you use by the way?

I then added the 4th one back in and now it boots. Any ideas why just switching those 2 positions would change anything??
Maybe for the first time it didnt go all the way down?

New MSI GE70 2PE laptop screen not turning on/potential graphics problem

Hi all,
This is very frustrating for me!
I've just bought a brand new MSI GE70 2PE gaming laptop for my partner and turning on causes the power on light to blink blue and orange - something i'm struggling to find any information online for. The screen remains black with no backlight or turning on. I have tried plugging the laptop through VGA into my monitor and it also says it cannot pick up any signal.
This is leading me to think it is some sort of graphics related problem. The disc drive is ejecting, I can hear the processor ticking along and all the fans etc are on - so it's not completely dead.
The fan is actually pumping out fairly warm air too, when left idle which to me seems a little odd too - I wouldn't thought it would be struggling at this point.
I have no idea what is going on, if the laptop is completely faulty or its something I am overlooking. It's supposedly 'brand new' - well the box was sealed and this problem has occurred from the first time I have tried to boot it.
I've tried running it on battery, purely on AC and this doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any ideas people? This is super frustrating and I don't want to have to get in contact with MSI about this for some sort of warantee job.
Thanks in advance!

Hello hybridoriental,
Since your laptop is still brand new one under the warranty, I'll suggest you send it to the MSI service centers or MSI authorized service points for inspections.
The power light in orange means the system is accessing the discrete GPU. Looks like your laptop stuck in a loop before it started the BIOS. Just make sure you installed the battery and plugged the AC power before you turn it on. If it still doesn't work, it would be better and time-saving to send it to someone whom can inspect and take care of the laptop rather than figure it out by yourself.

Brand new iPod classic 160 gb won't show up in iTunes devices

Brand new iPod classic 160 gb won't show up in iTunes devices. The iPod is fully charged, iTunes reckonises my iPod touch, iPad, iPhone 3G and iPhone 4, but not the iPod classic, although it says the iPod is connected it doesn't register in iTunes.

I purchased a new iPod Classic 160 GB in August 2013 and it (the iPod Classic device) would not show in iTunes though it did show in the Apple Finder. I tried EVERYTHING numerous times including resetting the iPod, updating iTunes and trying everything in the book and in on-line tips. Nothing worked and I was about to give up when I tried using the Apple iPod Classic cable that actually came in the iPod Classic box. It worked!!! Conclusion? Dont just use any old Apple cable eg. from a iPhone or whatever; TRY the USB cable that came with your iPod Classic!!! I have 2009 iMac with the latest Mac OS BTW.

Custom bios for MSI GE70 2OC

Hello
I have a MSI GE70 2OC with Windows 8.
My BIOS is E1757IMS.511 build 08/27/2013, EC Version is 1757EMS1 Ver. 5.06, build 07/30/2013.
I saw in another topic that in modified bios FAN behaviour can be changed? I really don't like that FAN is always on when on AC power.
What else can be changed or what hidden functions has my BIOS?
TIA

yes its possible to be done by custom way, but not from BIOS

HT201364 I have a brand new macbook pro, but it won't let me download mavericks

I have a brand new macbook pro, but it won't let me download mavericks

You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro.
This MacBook uses a special OS X Mavericks version which is newer than the one available in the Mac App Store, so you cannot download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store now. Instead, if you need to reinstall OS X, you will have to do this through Recovery (hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting up).
You will be able to download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store when your Mac uses the same OS X version as all other Macs. This may happen when Apple launches OS X 10.9.2

New MBP battery won't charge unless closed

I've had my 17' MBP for 3 months and I'm having more issues with it than my last 2 macbooks combined. My problem now is that the battery won't charge unless the laptop is closed, and yes, I use only Apple authentic chargers. I first thought it was a bad charger, so I ordered a new one from Apple and it still won't charge while I"m using it. Any ideas on what to do? Or why this would happen. I'm also having problems with trying to restart it after software updates, it tells me that Mail won't close so I can't restart, even when I quit mail prior to initiating the restart.
I have a feeling I'll get my money's worth out of Apple care this time around and I like the removable/replaceable battery on the older laptops, I wish they wouldn't have changed that.
Thanks!

Went over my laptop with an Apple Genius today and did two things, one or both of which contributed to resolving this issue. The first thing was actually shutting the computer down and restarting it. I typically don't do that for weeks or months at a time and this can help some of the internal power settings establish a baseline.
The 2nd thing, which I think had the most impact, was to take the 980+ items on my desktop and move them into a single folder on my desktop. Each file icon on your desktop in OS X gets drawn using the same procedure as the one that renders an open Finder window. So each desktop icon is a separate object that gets managed, rendered and displayed by your graphics card and that means my graphics card was doing the work it would take to display over 1000 different Finder windows. That work is shouldered largely by the GPU, so it does not show up as CPU core activity in the Activity Monitor graphical plots, but it does seem to show up as part of the percentage of Finder CPU time that is reported in the list of running processes in Activity Monitor. That Finder CPU percentage was spiking a lot, as different events triggered a refresh of my desktop. I think it was this extreme overtasking of the GPU that was driving my laptop's power needs beyond what the adapter could supply. This would explain the correlation some people see with this problem and watching video, as well as a strange 25 second hang that I would see in the Finder after using Quick Look. This would also explain why people report having this problem recur after having their entire laptop or power adapter replaced. This is an easy fix to try, at least. YMMV.

TS1373 I have a 1st generation Nano, and I have a sad iPod icon, and it seems like my battery won't charge either. I guess it's too old. Anyway if I buy a new iPod will I be able to transfer my songs and playlists to the new one easily?

I have a older Nano, I think I got it in 2004 or 2005 and I have a sad iPod icon, and it seems like my battery won't charge, the low battery icon appears but never seems to do anything. If I buy a new iPod will I be able to transfer my songs and playlists to the new one easily? Thanks.

If you are using automatic syncing to load the iPod, all songs on the iPod are in your iTunes music library. So, you won't need to transfer anything from the old nano. Just sync the new iPod from your iTunes library the same way.
If you use the Manually manage music setting, AND there are songs on the iPod that are not in your iTunes music library, you will need to off-load songs to your computer first. You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer" you should get some links.
Also, if this is a 1st gen iPod nano, you can check this article to see if it applies to you

Battery won't charge anymore, charger light orange

for some unknows reasons,
my battery won't charge ,
the adapter light stay orange but the charge stay to 0%,
(or 40% for the brand new battery from apple store)
-i've tried to reset the PMU but no effect
-i've ordered a new Apple battery but no charging allowed,
it stay to 40% pre-charge when sector plugged or decrease the charge with only battery
the powerbook works with battery only or sector only, but charging the battery simply doesn't works.
-i've checked the charger, it works

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=32155-fr
-i've starded from a firewire harddisk with a new system : battery no charge
-i've made the test with the Apple Service diagnostic 2.5.7 CD
(nothing found)
then it is a logic board issue ??
for a almost 2 years-old machine it's a shame
what the procedure to follow in my country to diagnostic and fix ?
PWB ALU 17" 1.5 Ghz Mac OS X (10.3.9)
PWB ALU 17" 1.5 Ghz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
Sorry to hear about your battery issue. When a battery appears to be failing, typically either the battery is bad or the logic board is misbehaving. You have a new battery and that didn't change the symptoms, you've determined the power supply is functional, and you've run the Apple hardware test from your OS X DVD and found nothing (the Apple hardware test tests the logic board). Do you know anyone with Applecare who has the TechTools Deluxe CD, that you could borrow to also test the logic board?
I don't expect this will fix it, however, you can also reset your PRAM/NVRAM by following the directions at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238.
It sounds like you need to take your system to an Apple store for analysis.
