Can't acces to system!

I've recently upgraded my system with pacman -Syu but it can't boot.
It says something like it can't find dev/sda5 (where the system is installed)
then i get to a recovery terminal o something.
Help please!

ok i have an ubuntu live cd and i ran some commands.
With fdisk -l /dev/sda, i get this:
Disposit. Inicio Comienzo Fin Bloques Id Sistema
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS
La partición 1 no termina en un límite de cilindro.

I can't acces to BIOS to change boot order on Satellite 2410

I can't acces to cmos to change boot priorityre. HELP !!!
Notebook Satellite S2410-504.
I try to normally press "C" on startup to boot from CD. but it don't work.
F12 too don't help.
I think some set some password on HWUtility, but how disable this pasword?
Please HELP!!!!

LOL... motherboard replacement? You dont need a new Motherboard.. Just a new flashed BIOS... Buy a new flashed BIOS... or ask someone to flash your old one...
Aaaand you can always update the BIOS with the wrong procedure :) as long as you dont reboot... If your highly skilled you will be also able to do the following trick...
Get a NB with the same BIOS and BIOS chip... Load the operating system... remove the BIOS chip while the operating system is... operating... Put the bad flashed or empty BIOS chip in the socket... Flash it... Now you got your accidentally bad flashed BIOS chip flashed...
To your BIOS Password problem Problem... I dont know, if Toshiba has build in a reset Jumper... But in Desktop systems, you can always reset the "complete" BIOS + Password with that jumper. Should be possible in Notebooks too...

[solved] pacman can't acces repositories, but my web browser does

Hi,
there is a strange problem. Today I tried a pacman -Syu to update, but pacman can't acces my repositories. Gives me errors of
error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from mirror.archlinux.ro : No address record
I tried different mirrors, change the protocol from ftp to http, but without result. The strange think is that I can access those repositories with my web browser, so I think that it is pacman or python problem.
My last entries in pacman's log are

Rosetta can have a 2GB RAM "tax" to manage PowerPC code as well as how that affects performance.
I think real world performance shows both statements to be wrong; consider this:
If that were the case, how come Apple does not include that information in its Snow Leopard installation requirements, since Rosetta is an optional install?
Also, running a PowerPC app on an 2011 i7 Mac with Snow Leopard will run faster than running that PowerPC app on a PowerPC Mac.

Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router

Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router main page any more.
Before I get a window that ask me to add an exception, cause the certificate ... as I check the remember the exception it always ask me for the exception. was not so bad as I have ask any time for the exception and finally I have acces to it . But now NO WAY !!!
I still go to internet, all my computers are connected but I could'nt reach the router to change some settings and add news computers ( my settings are very secure on my router to add a device I have to enter the MAC address). I still get my printer at 192.168.3.141, the modem at 192.168.1.1 but when I want to go to the router main page 192.168.3.1, I get this message :
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.3.1. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s). (Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
I read that FF change some settings on the new versions and last time I enter on my router without problems was on October 10.
Now I have installed the 33.0.1 my OS Is XP.
PLEASE HELP WITH THAT ISSUE
EDIT: I suspect that my problem have to be with the certificate manager because I see it change a lot on this version, and have a place to add exception security like the old one that I use to have to check in the past.
it look like the same problem as me:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1042889
I don't understand almost nothing about certificates then I didn't find any tutorial explaining how to deal with. Also I sow that was totally diferent have some ssl things to check and now is a OCSP ??? for me all still chinesse (lol) I only want someting very simple: reach my router !!!.
I only see on authorities many times my router address, I try to add an exception and say the certificate couldn't be found. I don't know how to play with all this settings , but I'm shure have relation to my problem.
Sorry, my english it's not the best.

[SOLVED)
@the-edmeister That work !!! thank you very much. I have to put it at SSLv3 option to this work.
I have a question for you. How I could figure out to work with that in the future? could I add an exception on the certificates? or something like that to still let me enter on my router web page? or how I could figure out to make any change on tomato router to still work with the new standard? .

Can i use technical system type 'third party' for r3 system in idoc2file sc

Hi,
i am doing a sample out bound scenario (idoc 2 file), distributing idoc from sap system to csv file (in same network). in this can i use thchnical system type 'third party' for R3 system. will the scenario work properly or not.
And some times some of the business systems in SLD are not visible in ID, when assigning business system in ID.can any one tell reason for this.
can any one suggest me,........ Thanks in advance & would be appreciated.
Regards
Rajesh

Hi,
<i> can i use thchnical system type 'third party' for R3 system. will the scenario work properly or not.</i>
--- No u can't use this...Ur technical system must be "WebAS ABAP" only. For file system you use 3rd party system. means ur technical system like follows.
sender
R/3 -- WebAs ABAP
Receiver
File - 3 rd pary system
<i>And some times some of the business systems in SLD are not visible in ID, when assigning business system in ID.can any one tell reason for this.</i>
Click "Clear SLD cache" repeatly for some time in ID, it will come.

Ansar.

How can I fix my system preferences so the system preferences window don't freeze up every time I open it?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix a System Prefrences problem? Every time I try to open system prefrences I get that little color wheel over the System Prefrences window, and I am not able to change any system prefrence options or click on any options in the window. It just freezes up. I have iOS Lion 10.7.4 version on a 2012 Macbook Pro i7. Right now my screen saver is just a blank blue color, and I am unable to set any other photo from my photo library to the hpome screen picture even without going throiugh system prefrnces. I have tried Disk Utility>Verify Disk Permissions, and that did not work. I have also tried Disk Utility>Permissions Repair, and that did not work either. Can anyone tell me another option to try because I am unable to open Time Machine to repair to an earlier date because that window freezes up also. Does anyone know any other options? This Macbook Has been doing this sort of thing since I took it out of the box brand new 4 months ago, but it fixted itself before the Macbook help coverage was expired so I never bothered to call Apple about it. Now it just freezes up and never works, I can't change my system time out I cant change any system prefrences on my Macbook Pro. It really ***** bad. Also another symptom my macbook has right before this problem accours is my screen saver on my computer will automatically be swithched to that Galaxy screen saver all the sudden when I turn my computer on then when I go to change the screen save back to a picture I had on my computer the system prefrences just freeze up. Please let me know if you know what I can do. Thanks.
Also I am Unable to open Dock Preferences and i get the frozen screen color wheel Just like on System Preferences.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.

Safari will no longer open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files.

Safari will no longer open. It just goes back to my desktop. When I right click on the safari icon in my dashboard it says it is open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files. Some of my emails from trusted sites won't open and does the same thing.
I upgraded my original system from 10.4.11 to I believe 10.6. something about a year or so ago. I thought about re installing my safari app but when I go to open anything connected to safari my screen goes back to the desktop. I cant open any files that I have on my desktop that I set up through safari, like my banking program. Prior to changing system preference to safari default I was able to open those files and now I can't get into change it back. Can you guide me through this?
Thanks,
Betty

Try running the 10.6.8 combo update.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
System Preferences or Safari Preferences?
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Can't acces to internal laptop hard disc - input/output error

Welcome to the forums.
Not exactly alot of info to go on here. Try reading up on the "How to post" article on the wiki.
As for the trouble at hand. With the limited info given, I'd say start off with running some health checks on your disk (smartctl, fsck,...).

My Mac has a OS X operating system. (10.6.8) How can I upgrade its system to Mountain Lion so I can then add the ICloud?

My Mac has a OS X operating system. (10.6.8) How can I upgrade its system to Mountain Lion so I can then add the ICloud? Also, does the ICloud include virus protection for files already on my Mac?

You can purchase and download Mountain Lion in the App Store (in your 'Applications' folder), then just run the installer: however you should first check that Mountain Lion can indeed run on your Mac. Please see this page:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
You might also want to look at this page to see whether any vital applications will be adversely affected:
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
In particular note that PPC applications such as AppleWorks will not run on Mountain Lion since Rosetta is not included and can't be added.

Can we connect another system say SRM,BI with persona(without add on)

Hi ,
I have installed SAP Screen Persona's in one my ECC system ,so can I connect the sap persona's to other landscape system for ex SRM ,BI etc without installing any add on it ?As in same ECC system one system we can take main system and other as target system so can i take a SRM system as target and persona's will work on it.Kindly clarify Sushant Priyadarshi any comments.
Thanx
Niti

Hi Niti,
In config guide for Persona 2.0 under the section maintained system SAP has clearly mentioned that you can make your one system for ex (ECC) as a source system and then connect your other system as a target by maintaining logical system in SPRO only prerequisite should be your SAP kernal should be 7.21 or 7.40 or higher
Follow the procedure for the SPRO configuration and after that just do the below configuration
Maintain the following parameters under System Settings:
o Service.Uri – Maintain the service name for accessing SAP Screen Personas
here. The default service is /restgui.
o Server.Url – Maintain the server link for the system here. For example:
https://ldfss600.pal.ess.corp:50015
Go thorugh the config guide for detailed steps by clicking below link

I am looking to control a 4-way hydraulic solenoid valve. Do I need a PID control toolset, or can i control the system through my 16E4 daq card and scxi chasis

I am looking to control a 4-way hydraulic solenoid valve. Do I need a PID control toolset, or can i control the system through my 16E4 daq card and scxi chasis

I think you're asking 2 different questions.
The PID control toolset is for using PID loops for control; it's just software.
The DAQ card and scxi chassis are hardware. If you have the appropriate signal conditioning cards in your chassis to control/monitor your solenoid valve, then you can run a PID loop.
I believe the simple answer is: the PID control toolset is the best way to do control, but there are simple PID VI's (even on this website) that you can download and use for simple control.

Try doing it in a WIndows Safe mode - Restart computer and hit F8 key right after your see BIOS check and choose "Safe mode with networking"
Do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that does not work, whilst in safe mode, download Free Malwarebyte software from CNET's Download.com. Install, update virus definition then perform a full scan. Remove if it did find some viruses or trojans. Restart computer.
Back to regular windows, do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that doesnot work, check to see if your Hard drive has errors or bad sectors
GO START BUTTON /COMPUTER, right mouse click OS (C:) and choose "Properties"
Choose "Tools" tab and under error checking, click "Check Now".
Make sure "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" is checked and click start.
Restart windows will perform the above task to fix errors This may take hours depends on how big is your Hard Drive
Good Luck!!.

Can't acces to system!
