Can't enable AGP!
Hi, I upgraded from a Geforce 2 MX 32Mb to a Geforce 4 Ti4200 64Mb. Unfortunately I see very little improvement in performance! My 3D Benchmark2001E has gone from 4500 to 5500, and in practice it's even worse: games like Return to Castle wolfenstein still drop to as low as 10 FPS!!
One thing I've noticed is that when I go into control panel->display->MSI information, the boxes concerning AGP are not ticked and it won't let me tick them! My motherboard has AGP enabled in the bios and is AGP 4 compatable.
I've tried the drivers from the CD, the drivers from the MSI website, and some detonator 30.00 drivers, none of which help.
There's only two things I can think I've done "wrong/differently".
1) I didnt uninstall the geforce 2 before installing the new card.
2) I installed the geforce tweak utility when I had my geforce 2 and the first few times I loaded it up after upgrading it said I didnt have a geforce card - so it's obviously a bit confused
Can anyone please help because this is the biggest waste of £140 I've ever made!
Here's my system:
Athlon XP 1700
Microstar turbo motherboard
256 Mb PC133
Geforce 4 Ti4200 64Mb
Windows 98
Uninstall any GeForce tweak utility.
Check in the Control Panel/ System if there are any devices with a question mark or are marked as disabled. At Display here you can check the info about the driver you are using. If any device has a question mark then uninstall it (them) and reboot. It might be a good idea to uninstall the display driver. Next time Win 98 starts provide the necessary drivers (even the latest for AGP, if requested). Make sure you are using the appropriate Display driver (and not an older version installed automatically by Win98.
Check also the load of the CPU when idle. If you get a reading close to full load then there might be an IRQ conflict, or some driver not correctly installed.
If unsuccessful, you can backup your Win98 using Norton Ghost on another drive, then format the system partition and clean install Win98, providing the right drivers. This will only take you about 40 min and you can see if a clean install solves the problem. If not, you can have your system back the way it was in just a few minutes.

Cannot enable AGP DMA for VIA hardware
As of the current Xorg 7 packages, I can't get AGP DMA working. Here's what Xorg.0.log shows:
[proteus@localhost ~]$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.16-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 12 18:59:19 CEST 2006 i686
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(EE) VIA(0): Unknown Card-Ids (1565|1200), report this to [email protected] ASAP
(EE) VIA(0): [drm] drmAgpAcquire failed 1023
(EE) VIA(0): [drm] Failed to initialize DMA ring-buffer: 1005
The above is with Openchrome drivers, but the same messages are present with both xf86-video-via and xf86-video-unichrome as well. This really annoys the hell out of me, because a) not having AGP DMA means a very large performance reduction when using OpenGL, and b) AGP DMA worked fine when I was using Xorg 6.8, and with earlier Xorg 7 packages (from when Xorg 7 was in Testing). Could someone please explain to me what is not working, why it's not working, and how to get it working again?Nope, that doesn't work either.
For what it's worth, I always got the "Unknown Card-Ids" message, even with the Testing version of Xorg 7, and with Xorg 6.8.2 - and AGPDMA works perfectly for both of those.
Now, I tried doing X -configure to create the config file and not getting rid of the vendor/model "information":
VendorName "Unknown Vendor"
BoardName "Unknown Board"
That gets rid of the "failed to initialize ring buffer" error, but AGPDMA is still not enabled:
Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.16-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 12 18:59:19 CEST 2006 i686
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

(EE) VIA(0): Unknown Card-Ids (1565|1200), report this to the driver maintainer ASAP
(EE) VIA(0): [drm] drmAgpAcquire failed 1023
And now, here's something I should have noticed a while ago... Check out these (edited for clarity) screenshots of xorgcfg in textmode:
In Xorg 6.8.x, VIA cards were listed where the red line is pointing. Now they're not listed there, or anywhere in xorgcfg.
Likewise, the "via" driver is simply not listed; again, it was in Xorg 6.8.x, even after the installation of the necessary DRI snapshots for VIA hardware.
Note that the above is observable with any of the available Unichrome drivers installed - xf86-video-via, xf86-video-unichrome, and xf86-video-openchrome all produce the same results.
Also, I can't confirm this for xorgcfg's graphical mode, for the simple reason that the graphical mode just crashes:
[root@localhost ~]# xorgcfg
Warning: Cannot convert string "menu10" to type Pixmap
Warning: Cannot convert string "menu10" to type Pixmap

Think this strange stuff has any bearing on the AGPDMA situation? -
Problem enabling Agp 8x and Fast write on a Msi Neo 2 Platinium mobo.
I bought, about 2-3 months ago this motherboard and I installed in it a Sapphire Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition. The problem is that I can't set, in my BIOS, the AGP to 3.0 (4X/8X) because the PC , then, seems to act weirdly and give me all kind of problems. When I go in Start --> Run --> and I enter "dxdiag", all of my direct 3D options are disabled and I cannot set them to "ON" as the "Enable" button seems to be grayed out.
The only way I can run the PC stable with the video card and the motherboard is to set the AGP to 4X. That way, all of my Direct 3D options will be back.
When I set it to 8X, sometimes the computer will freeze, the screen may turn black randomly and doesn't re-open. In my games, the levels (like CoD or Unreal Tournament, All the BF Games) won't load, it simply will freeze on the load screen.
Is this problem due to some incompatibility between the Mobo and the graphic card???
Is there a way I can keep the PC stable when enabling the AGP 3.0 (4x/8x)?
Thanks.Quote from: Jesteronyer6 on 21-July-05, 23:04:11
I would run drivercleaner pro and reinstall all your drivers.
The problem start from Bios.He can not anaible AGP 8x, so this doesn't have to do with drivers.

All music gone, transferred to 'other', can't enable disk use on iTunes
it seems like there are a lot of people with similar problems but nothing exact..here goes:
-doing research on my macbook and i get a popup from itunes saying that my ipod was disconnected improperly (i didn't touch it and i wasn't even messing around on itunes)
-ipod restarts and reconnects with itunes and i get another pop up saying that "itunes cannot read the contents of the ipod. go to ipod summery and preferences and restore.
-i would just restore it and reload all the music butttttt like an idiot..i dont keep my music in my itunes cause it takes up way too much space and i never used any external hard drive or anything to back my music up (again..idiot..i know)
-so i read though a ton of forums and posts and see that im not the only one that this has happened to and everyone is saying to put it in disc mode, go to removable disk, copy all the music back to my macbook, restore my ipod, and put all the music back on. i also read something about clicking on my ipod icon on my desktop and going under ipod controls and changing some names (i dont konw if that was jsut for windows or what) but i also dont have an option of ipod controls
-the problem with that is that i can put my ipod into disk mode but that does me no good because i can't enable disk use on itunes because literally..my only option when i plug in my ipod is to restore it. under devices on the left hand menu, it just says ipod..not ipod with a bunch of sub categories like music and playlists and stuff..just ipod.
-normally..i would just give up and restore it but when i go to the about section on my actual ipod, it says that i have 50GB of "other" so that means that stuff is definitely still on it.
-so finally..my main question is:
is there ANY way to enable disk use on my iTunes without doing it through my iPod?..like i explained..when i plug my iPod in..that is not an option. and also..would i benefit from just bringing my laptop and ipod into an apple store and asking for help there or will that just be a waste of time?The library on the iPod will have been damaged - hence the reason it appears empty, but the media files are still there taking up space and reported as "Other". Check out this post from Zevoneer for some iPod recovery options.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6273675�
Some of the tools mentioned will require a working library, but I know from experience that you can use the manual recovey method when the library is missing or damaged. If you're struggling for space you probably need to go & buy an external drive before you start. Stick the iPod in disk mode. Hold Menu+Select > 6 seconds (resets iPod) followed immediately by hold Previous & Select > 6 seconds. You can now drag the contents of iPod_Control\Music to your new hard drive. You may need to reveal hidden files & folders. Once they are on your hard drive you can create a new empty library on the drive, then import the files you have reovered and consolidate the imported library so that the files are in a standard artist\album\## track structure rather that the iPod's obscured names.

How can I enable embedded pl/sql gateway to run on port 80
I have a new 11G install on OEL 4.0, database created. I would like to be
able to access the instance using the pl/sql gateway. Works fine with
port 8080, the default. How to I enable it to run on port 80?
I found this statement in the following docuementation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14259/xdb22pro.htm#ADXDB2500
Using HTTP(S) on Nonstandard Ports
By default, HTTP listens on a nonstandard, unprotected port: 8080. To use HTTP(S) on
the standard port, such as 80, your DBA must chown the TNS listener to setuid ROOT
rather than setuid ORACLE, and configure the port number in the Oracle XML DB
configuration file /xdbconfig.xml.I have root priviledges on the box.
I've tried setting the listener file permissions:
chown root:dba /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/tnslsnr
chmod 6775 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/tnslsnr
Also put root in the dba group.
The permissions turn out like this:
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root dba 830854 Jun 17 21:04 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/tnslsnr
I stopped the listener, bounced the database, and started the listener again.
But it still shows the process being owned by oracle:
oracle 29682 1 0 21:08 ? 00:00:00 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER -inherit
Changing the port is easy:
Connected to:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
SYS>select dbms_xdb.gethttpport as "HTTP-Port" , dbms_xdb.getftpport as "FTP-Port" from dual;
HTTP-Port FTP-Port

At this point, I can access the apex home page with the following url:
http://hostname:8080/apex/f?p=4550:10:1454849288245548
I can than change it to port 80:

dbms_xdb.sethttpport('80');
dbms_xdb.setftpport('2100');
end;

When I try to access apex with the following url:
http://rmdcopslnx1.us.oracle.com/apex/f?p=4550:10:1454849288245548
I get the following:

This is the entry from the listener log:
<msg time='2008-07-03T15:40:09.741-06:00' org_id='oracle' comp_id='tnslsnr'
type='UNKNOWN' level='16' host_id='hostname'

So this looks like an permissions problem. But where? I posted
this on the apex forum here:

How can i enable both paired bluetooth and ios keyboard input at the same time?
This is needed for the app im working on. Need some user input via keypad as well as scanner input via a paired bluetooth scanner.You probably should not be using a keyboard bluetooth profile for a scanner, I am not a developer for apple so do not know the location for you to find out the correct profile you should be using for an input device that is not a keyboard. Sorry,
I am sure if you navigate the apple developer site you will probaly finmd what you're looking for.

Can I enable the root user account from the log in screen when I am locked out of the machine?
Hello everyone,
I am working on my friends mac to get it ready to sell. I went into the advanced options of the user and changed the name of the account. That's all I changed. I did read the warning that said if anything was changed it could cause damage, that's why I only changed the name of the user account. I didn't want to mess with anything else. Well, needless to say, I am locked out of the machine. Apparently the root user, system administrator, account was not enabled and I am stuck at the screen that I can get to with my installation disc. So how can I enable the root user account and get back onto the machine from the screen I am at? Can I enable the root user from terminal? I spent a good 8 hours yesterday researching this topic and have come up empty. Changing passwords from commands in terminal is not the problem. I am given just one account to choose from to log on and it's not accepting the password because of the changes I made in the advanced options menu.
Is there any hope of getting this thing going again? Or have I just screwed myself over?
Thanks for your help!
LeahYou can reset the password.

Do you need to recover data from it before you sell it? If not you can just wipe the disk and prepare it for sale.

Hi,
I downloaded Java from Java.com (free download) to be able to open a file I received as email attachment. After the download something happened to my laptop pc (Windows 7). I received pop up messages that said something like "Your computer got infected
you need to install Windows Defender 2015. And they started to pop up almost every second and also the screen view changed. It got upside down or windows messages moved and seemed to be multiplied, very unusual things kept going...
I stopped it and went online on my tablet pc and looked for what to do if my computer got infected with virus (because that's what I thought happened). From what I read online I made sure that all Microsoft windows experts were all recommending to start
my pc in safe mode and I found some instructions such as going to Task Manager and ending processes and also to clear some files and folders in Registry Editor. I wasn't able to clear files and folder in Registry Editor. To make short, I came to the conclusion
that I needed live help from a Microsoft expert. I chatted online with some MS Support Desk techs and followed their instructions but it didn't help at all. When I click on the little flag icon with a red cross sign on it(the one that says Open Action Center)
it says 1 important message-Turn on Windows Security Center service(Important) I tried to turn it on (I don't know how many times!) but I get the message "The Windows Security Center can't be started"
I went to Troubleshooting and clicked on Check of Performance issues (under System and Security) it did checking and I got the message "Problems Found- SuperFetch is not running. Not Fixed.
My question is: HOW CAN I GET SuperFetch running? or How can I enable SuperFetch?
Thank you.

How can you enable back the Android native Menu button in AIR 2.7?
I've noticed in AIR 2.7 for Android, that now the bottom icons in Android 3.0 Honeycomb are hidden (replaced by small dots) in AIR 2.7, whereas in AIR 2.6 they were always visible. That's cool. Since the bottom bar can never be hidden in Android 3, at least now those icons are less visible (unless you intentionally touch the bottom bar, then the icons show up for a few seconds).
BUT I also noticed in AIR 2.7 compiled apps, the native "Menu" icon is not visible anymore, even after touching the bottom bar. In AIR 2.6 you could see and press that button (which can be captured from AIR so you can show a custom settings menu or whatever).
So, quoting the subject --> How can you enable back the Android native Menu button in AIR 2.7?There is a work around and a reason for the menu issue. Honeycomb doesn't natively support a menu softkey, it is only to support old apps comiled in phone API levels. If you compile a Honeycomb app in 2.7 or 3.0, it is expected you manage the settings within the larger tablet UI framework. See below link for more info and work around.

Can I enable Battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without beig jailbroken?
You can enable battery % on ipod touch 4g without jailbreaking it you can use backup bot for itunes. Thats how i enabled it on mine. Step 1: goto http://www.icopybot.com/ibackupbot_setup.exe download and install it if you have windows. Step 2: Next create a backup of your device in iTunes and then CLOSE iTunes (or else you may run into problems later on) do not lock the backup with a password. Step 3: Open iBackupBot. Click the backup you just made Next click "Path" to sort by Path. Step 4: Look for Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist and double click it. On the registration screen that comes up, hit cancel. Step 5: Find <dict> and create a new line after it. Then add this:
<key>SBShowBatteryLevel</key>
<true/>
Step 6: Hit CTRL + S or just the save button at the top left corner of that editor window. Now close the window.
Step 7: Right click that same backup you just edited
Step 8: click restore
Step 9: Done! If you don't see the changes, reboot your iPod.

How Can I Enable "Creative S/W Synth" in Windows
