Cart Freezing

I put Kasnsas Audiovisions Album in my cart and now everytime I try to access my shopping cart I get the following error:
Could not complete the iTunes store request. The store may be busy. Check your internet connection later.
I run iTunes diagnostics with out probems. I can access all other areas of the store accept when I due a search for the same Album in the store I get the same error.
Is their way to reset my Cart ? Any other ideas ?

  • Trouble with Mobile Users using my cart

    Hello, I've had intermittent issues with my paypal cart and my customers trying to purchase through phones.  It's happening with "some" of both iPhones and Android users, where they add an item to cart and their phone either freezes or drops the items out of the cart.  
    I am losing sales because of this because a lot of my online sales are very time sensitive.  Are there any known issues with any mobile operating systems, or any feature I should turn on with my online paypal store, or certain way I should set up my items to accomodate mobile sales.  Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi Chuck,
    TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
    SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
    http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
    http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
    Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.
    Also...
    The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

    Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think.
    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Photoshop CS6 unusable -interface freezes and not enough memory message - on a specific hardware

    I usually speak french but I'll try to be as clear as possible.
    I work as a technician in a school and we're experiencing a major issue with Photoshop CS6.
    We have 3 differents computer's hardware. Photoshop CS6 works fine on 2 of them.
    On the other though, Photoshop CS6 is unusable. With this specific hardware, Photoshop has the same weird behavior on each machine (around 50), so it's not related to an hardware malfunction (like bad ram) I suppose.
    Our problem is this: Once Photoshop is opened and you minimize it in the task bar, as soon as you maximise it to use it again, the interface doesn't respond well at all, the interface is all messed up, some windows are missing and most of the time Photoshop freezes. And after that, whatever we try to do, like selecting whatever option, we have the ''not enough memory'' message. So we can't do nothing with the program after that, from selecting another tool to saving a file.
    Even when no file is opened and we have plenty of RAM that can be used, the problem is there.
    The same problem occurs if we open a window above Photoshop (internet, word, everything). As soon as we go back to work in Photoshop, the interface freezes and windows are missing, and we get the same not enough memory message every time.
    We already tried to change/desactivate each performance settings in Photoshop, we already installed the latest Photoshop CS6 update.
    We've updated BIOS, processor driver, graphic card driver, etc.
    We have this problem with Photoshop CS6 64 bits and 32 bits.
    We dont have this problem with any other program in the CS6 suite.
    We dont have this problem with Photoshop CS5.
    We have the same graphic card and driver on the others computers where Photoshop CS6 works perfectly well.
    What's bugging us is everything else in the production suite works fine!
    Please, do you think of anything else we can try?
    We're hopeless!
    Here is the specific hardware where the problem occur.
    Hardware:
    Dell Inspiron T3500
    Intel XEON e5220 2.27 ghz
    6 GIGS (RAM)
    Quadro FX 1800
    Plenty of available hard-disk.
    VRAM: 768 MB
    OPEN GL: Version 3.3
    Windows 7 Professional SP1

    Yes! There it this (sorry our Photoshop version is in french since we are a french school, I hope it's still useful to you) .
    Please note that it's not with the latest Adobe update available, but we've tried it on an other computer but I can't access it right now. But the adobe update did'nt solve the problem either.

  • Window freezes when Product category selected via match-code (search help)

    Hello Experts,
    I am using SRM 7.0 Extended Classic Scenario.
    I maintained a product category hierarchy in the SRM environment.
    I maintained the GL Accounts related, the tax determination, the source system etc.
    I did all this customizing in a Development environment where everything was working fine.
    Now I just transported all this to a Quality environment.
    And in the Quality I am facing the following issue :
    If I select a product category via the match-code (search help), after the category is selected, the window freezes.
    I have to shut it down manually using the Windows Close button.
    However, when I type the category number, everything works fine.
    Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue, and how to fix it ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Sofiane

    Hello,
    We have the exact same issue in SRM 7.0 Extented Classic Scenario. This was working fine before we installed the latest support package 11. Which support package do you have?
    The same problem occurs with every drop down menu (search help) in EBP. For example when creating a new shopping cart, if I try to add approver, the same thing happens. After clicking 'Approval Process: Display / Edit Agents' > 'Add Approver', the window freezes. Same thing happens with IE8 and Firefox 3.6.13. Could you also try the same?
    Could it be a new bug in SP11?
    Thanks and best regards,
    Matti Hokkanen

  • My computer freezes three times before it is able to start

    Hello everybody!
     I’m experiencing a kind of strange problem since about four weeks:
     When I try to turn-on my computer, it wouldn’t start at the first because it freezes (and the fan start to run at full speed), so I have to turn it off the hard way (power button). But if
    I go on trying, the computer eventually starts (after three or four attempts), and then it is able to run for hours without any problem.
     Those initial freezes usually occurs some minutes after I start the machine, either with or without firefox running… sometimes it freezes before the windows login screen…
     The fact that the computer is eventually able to start and run without problem for hours, makes me think that this is not a hardware-related problem…
     I have tried to use Process Monitor in order to generate activity logs, but those log files (pml) seem to be corrupted after each freeze…
     a-) Is any of you familiar with this kind of problem?
     b-) Do you know a way I would be able to identify the software responsible for this problem?
     I would really appreciate any help at this respect,
     Thank you very much,

  • Bug panneau de test carte PCI-6221 sous max 5.5

    Bonjour,
    J'utilise Labview 2012, MAX 5.5 et une carte PCI-6221.
    La carte passe l'autotest sans pb mais rien ne se passe quand je demande d'ouvrir les panneaux de tests, aucune fenetre ne s'ouvre (avec normalement les onglets entree analogique, sortie analogique, E/S numériques, E/S compteur...)
    Avez vous une idée pour résoudre ce BUG?
    Merci d'avance pour votre aide

    Bonjour stef31,
    Merci d'avoir posté sur le forum de National Instruments.
    Permettez moi de vous posez quelques questions afin que nous puissions mieux comprendre votre problème et que nous puissions reproduire une machine semblable.
    Quelle distributions utilisez vous?
    Le driver s'est-il installé correctement après avoir introduit votre carte et redémarrer votre machine (Pop up)?
    Votre soft Max freeze t'il quand vous appuyer sur panneaux de tests?
    Que se produit il si vous cliquer sur "Auto-étalonner" puis sur "panneaux de tests"?
    Quelques axes de solutions:
    - Ouvrez votre Moniteur de Ressource Windows pour éventuellement voir si votre ordinateur travaille au moins lorsque vous essayez d'afficher le panneaux de test (si non, tentez de réinstaller max).
    - Si le problème persiste, auriez vous éventuellement une autre carte PCI sous la main pour voir si le problème vient de la carte elle même ou de votre machine.
    - Vous pouvez essayer d'enlever votre PCI-6221, de la supprimer de votre arborescence de Max et de retenter le processus.
    - Essayer de réinstaller Max
    - Ouvrez LV et utiliser les VI DAQmx pour voir si vos E/S sont visibles (cf ci joint).

  • Deep Freeze for iPad?

    I work at a children's hospital and we are looking for an iPad solution similar to Deep Freeze for PCs. We have used mobile PCs on clumsy carts with Deep Freeze on them so that personal data would be easily wiped. We are looking for something similar so we can replace the old Windows XP computers with iPads. The iPads we currently use have to be collected after each use, formatted, and restored from an image. This process is tedious and time-consuming.

    Hello, much like iToaster replied, Apple Configurator could possibly be a solution for you to manage your devices. You do need to use either an iMac, MacBook Pro or other Mac machine to run it off of, but from your original post this shouldn't be an issue for you.
    Using Apple Configurator you can actually create profiles, what Apple calls a group of settings. From here you can create restrictions and manage apps, lock down or unlock devices.
    Configurator also allows for App management, which has been buggy in the past as well as binding devices to user AD accounts. If you are using a cart model it also simplifies restoring from a backup.
    EDIT - if you are concerned about personal data not being wiped off of the device, Configurator also allows you to do mass "imaging" on these devices as opposed to having to do one by one through iTunes.

  • NF750-g55 post freeze

    'sup crew,
    This is my first MSI board and i luv it. It works studly. Everything seems perfect, and functional, but it freezes on post when it detects the PCI card. It sees it, but can't seem to boot past it. Post screen reports the card twice: Once as PCI 1 firewire cntrl, then again as PCI 1 unknown devise. That's right; its a sound card with external firewire enabled base station for pre amping and plugging in musical instruments to record. So it sees it fine.
    System specs:
    Amd Phenom II x4 965 black edition (unclocked)
    4gigs A-DATA 1600+ memory runs 1333 stock, overclocked to 1600 using 1:4 setting in bios.
    MSI NF750-G55 motherboard
    600 watt PSU LS Ultra ULT-ls6000p
    Plextor DVD SATA
    Maxtor 250gig HD SATA
    O/S winxp pro
    The card the system is freezing on is a sound card. A Creative Audigy II Platinum Pro. I have been using this board and the creative forums for the last 3 days to try to fix it, but this is a new motherboard and there is not a lot posted on it yet. The card works great, already double checked it in the ol ladys P4 XP computer. Detects it no problem, and loads it right up.
    It will boot if I enable fast booting, but this setting allows the bios to skip a few checks, Like detecting the PCI card,and the result is it is not passing a signal to windows that the PCI card is Present. So, Windows does not detect it. Duh...
    I found a related post here on a different msi motherboard where the user was having the same problem with the same sound card. Froze in post when it detected the card, just like mine. He disabled USB devises in the BIOS and his msi board then booted to the o/s and reported his creative Audigy II Platinum Pro. Tried it out of desperation, no go on this board. Post still froze. That's o.k. though, i don't have any plans to trade off my USB functionality to enable a sound card.
    Also checked the tension on the mounting screws, but i don't think i'm getting any shorts. Works perfect, long as i enable fast booting. I have tried it in both Win7 32bit, and WinXP pro 32 bit. Same result.
    PSU, hadn't thought of that. O.k. I grab a 550 watt PSU out of the ol' ladys computer. Specs: Its in chinese. Label lists a lot of power info but i dont see a model no# to reference that i recognize. Same results, system works great, but freezes when I slow boot. Still freezes when it detects the sound card. When i enable fast booting it shoots me right into windows, no probs, but windows never sees the card that way.
    Changed PCI latency in bios from 64, to 32, no difference. Still won't boot.
    There is only 1 PCI slot on this board so changing slots is not an option.
    Loaded F6 optimal setting,(disabled onboard sound) then fresh installed winxp pro. Same thing. Card still doesent show up in devise manager.
    I have no progs installed to create any conflicts. Loaded the motherboard drivers, nothing. Dl all microsoft updates, still nothing. I mean everything works great, but the card is not showing up in devise mangager.
    Now, if i can't get this thing to boot without enabling fast booting, it won't detect the sound card, and therefore will not pass that info to windows. Windows will never detect it like this.
    Oh yeah, i let creative dance me around for a while too and tried all their solutions, total uninstall all creative, then reboot and extract their exe file with winrar and try to install drivers. That works, but windows still doesent see anything to install the drivers in, lol. Good thinking there creative. Clean boot troubleshooting, tried that. I am sure these solutions work for some, but in this case it is putting the cart before the horse. The bios is not passing the sound card info to windows to detect to begin with, there is nothing showing up in devise manager, so thier solutions are useless for me.
    The prob is this motherboard. I have to successfully slow boot to get it to pass the card info to windows before it shows up in devise manager. If i can do that, or even figure a way to do it just once, windows will detect it, and i'll be able to load the drivers. If i have to rig the bios a certain way to accomplish this, I figure you guys will know how.
    Please help.

    Bas,
    Still with me, eh? Your a man, i'll give you that. See how popular i've become since I said "Audigy 2". Lol.
    Well, you'll be pleased to know that i haven't been idle, and though i don't know the solution, i do believe i know the question now.
    And oh yeah, onboard sound is always disabled on my machine. I bought this to create like a dream home studio for me, i'm not a gamer. Realtek can't do digital audio, they don't even have an Asio driver. I did try it in cubase on an earlier XP installation. All i can say is, thank gawd my ears can't hurl, so don't worry. Onboard sound is always disabled.
    Let me be a little clearer on the freeze. It is not a freeze at all, its a pause. The moment post detects the Platinum Pro sound card, it stops dead in its tracks. Originally i thought this was a freeze because none of the f-keys or the esc key will work. Those are the keys we normally use to manipulate post. I discovered later that if i waited about 20 seconds then hit pause followed by the "M" key, it would snap out of its coma and continue the post. Also noted is the fact that i can hit cntrl+alt+delete at any time to reboot the system, so not all the keys on the keyboard are nonfunctional when it pauses. It will not continue post without my interference, it will just sit there till hell freezes over, or i reboot, or invoke the pause and m key routine.
    It identifys my card as:
    PCI Slot-1 Firewire cntlr
    PCI Slot-1 Multimedia Devise
    PCI Slot-1 Unknown Devise
    These three listings are the key to this i believe. Notice that none of them have been assigned an IRQ by the system. This is odd to me as the system seems to assign everything else with IRQ numbers with np. The post screen is full of them.
    I've done some further testing. The ol ladys P4 is running an Audigy 2 value sound card. Out it goes, and into mine.
    Post lists nothing at all for the card, but it does not pause and continues without issue into windows. Wow. I didn't expect that. I thought sure it would see it. But no. I repeat the boot...nothing. Post doesn't see it at all.
    All right, now i'm thinking something is up with this PCI slot. I'm wondering if it works at all, and suspecting not.
    So to check it i pull out the Audigy 2 value, and install the D-link DFE-530TX+ Ethernet adapter card.
    Boot. Post detects it at once as:
    PCI Slot-1 Ethernet Adapter IRQ10
    Completes post without issue and into windows. Devise manager loads automatically and loads the cards drivers for me, i don't need to lift a finger. Damn, that was impressive. I luv this thing again.
    But this proves the PCI slot works. Arrrrrggghhhhhhh!!!
    Now, since hope springs eternal, and i'm wondering if its working now...out goes the network card, and back in goes the Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro.
    Boot. Post pauses again the moment it detects the card, damn. And this is a bad one, it is a couple of minutes before the pause and m key routine have any effect on it. Once i coax it out of its coma it shows the same detection for the card it did before:
    PCI Slot-1 Firewire cntlr
    PCI Slot-1 Multimedia Devise
    PCI Slot-1 Unknown Devise
    Again I point out, they have not been assigned any IRQ's by the system.
    Seems like a simple fix, but i cannot find anything in the bios that i recognize as being able to effect the changes. I can't find anything for plug and play. The manual that came in the box isn't giving anything up either, with only the vaugest mentions on the Bios. I'm not one who likes to pull switches and turn knobs just to see what will happen, so i'm stuck.
    Bas, is there a way to override the system and force it to assign the missing IRQ's? Can't do it in windows because its not showing up there. I have to do it in the bios.

  • Install of 8.6 or 9.0 freezes

    Tried searching for a bit, but I didn't see anything in this forum that helped. If I missed something, I apologize--please point me in the right direction!
    Got out the old beige G3 to play around with the other day. I decided I wanted to attempt to install OSX on it since I've got a zif 1Ghz upgrade sitting around and some extra hard drives.
    My tale begins with a fairly stock G3. The original (I'm guessing) 6GB hard drive is an Apple OEM drive, but it has passed on. It had OS 9 on it and was running fine. Since the drive died, I decided to start with a new hard drive and 8.6 since the tower (by the way, it's a Rev. A) came with 8, right? I figured, perhaps wrongly, that the best path to OSX would be by running all the proper updates through OS 9. Sounds like 10.2 is fairly stable for the G3 tower without lots of tweaking, so that's what I was shooting for.
    Well, here's what I did to prepare the drive and computer:
    Pull extra RAM
    Pull personality card (only card installed)
    Replace PRAM battery
    Set drive and CD-ROM to master
    Boot to open firmware (set-defaults, reset-all)
    Reset with p-r-opt-cmd dance
    Then I booted to the 8.6 install disk. I ran disk setup and initialized the 80GB ATA drive (WD Caviar) with two partitions (7GB and 73GB roughly) since I was planning on working my way up to OSX and have read about the 8GB partition limitation. Just in case I installed the drivers for the disk with drive setup after I initialized it.
    Restart, boot to 8.6 install disk. Run the installer, selecting the ~7GB partition. It freezes with four minutes left. That's not good!
    I had three RAM modules, so I started from scratch and ran the whole procedure from top to bottom with each module. Same thing.
    Tried the OS 9 install disk. At this point, I was a little frustrated. Maybe my install disk was messed up. Nope. OS 9 install freezes with seven minutes left every time.
    Is it possible that all three RAM modules are corrupt? This computer has been sitting for quite some time. The PRAM battery was toast, hence the replacement. Oh, and by the way, the only things hooked up are the CD-ROM and hard drive. No ZIP or floppy attached during the installation attempts.
    Am I missing something super obvious?
    Thanks for taking the time to read this poor tale. I look forward to being enlightened.
    b

    Jon - My goal now is to get this machine back to where it was in the not so distant past. I'd prefer not to start pouring money into it if I'm not sure that it will work. I'll keep that in mind if I do find a solution to my problem, or if I can fairly definitively narrow my problem down to the motherboard.
    BDAqua - Thanks. I knew the reset-nvram didn't work on this firmware, and I--probably mistakenly--assumed that doing the p-r-opt-cmd dance took care of that reset. I'll try that in about an hour.
    While I'm sitting around, I decided to test one more variable--the CD-ROM drive. Booted to the OS9 disk and initialized my 80GB disk. Then I used Disk Copy to copy the CD to a later partition. I'll install 8.6 until it freezes. Believe it or not, it'll show the flashing disk with question mark, and eventually boot 8.6. This is not so with OS9. If I let that install until it freezes, it won't boot at all. So I'll try to boot up 8.6 with another hard drive attached, and attempt to run the OS9 installer to install on the other hard drive. At this point I'm grasping at straws. I'm not even sure the installer will run if it's not on a CD.
    So I'll try the reset after this (probably fails).
    thanks!

  • MSI VN220GT MD1G|GeForce 220 GT - causing lock ups/screen freezes

    Hi, I've been searching everywhere for my problem, and the things I find usually are left unanswered :(
    I recently upgraded my old graphics card (GeForce 7300 GT) to the GeForce 220 GT, at that time I was using Windows XP SP3. Everything went fine then, I downloaded the newest driver from nVidia (195.62) and restarted, everything went smoothly.
    It was then my computer started to freeze, to the point where I can't do anything (mouse/keyboard unresponsive). I am forced to force reboot. This freezing usually happens randomly when there's nothing to provoke the problem.
    So I decided to upgrade to the new Windows 7. I did everything it told me to and everything went very well. But the problem still occurs, but more often, and around 30 minutes after logging in. I got the Windows 7 32 bit version of the new nVidia driver (195.62) and installed it. Did nothing. I have also tried to update windows which also did nothing.
    These forum threads ask the same question I am now asking:

    I did some more research on the net and it seems this PSU is labelled under many different names. I found a Portuguese site that did the test for this unit and then used the google translator tool.
    refer to http://www.clubedohardware.com.br/artigos/1818/1
    Some translated extracts:
    The Coletek is a national brand aimed at the OEM market, or its source is aimed at companies that assemble PCs They have a separate brand for products geared to the retail market, the C3Tech. Today we test the model LC-8460BTX S (which, despite its name, is an ATX and not a BTX) that is sold as a source of 450 W. Really?.....
    ....Speaking of curiosity, in Figure 7 you can see the marking of the type of fuse in the circuit board of the source. All sources bring this information. But the curious thing here is that the marking indicates that for a source from 150 to 200 W a 5 A fuse should be used and to a source from 230 to 300 W from a 6.3 A fuse should be used. As this power supply uses a fuse of 6.3 A, we have a source between 230 and 300 W, according to their own existing markup on the printed circuit board thereof. As the manufacturer can turn that into 450 W on the label of the source is a magic that Mr. M can not explain.....
    ....The Coletek LC-S 8460BTX burned when trying to draw about 225 W (which would be our test number seven). So the most you can pull it was about 190 W (which would be our test of 200 W). More information and video on the next page.
    So I recommend that you perhaps translate the whole article to get the full results. In your case, I believe the PSU should be the first place where you should try something a bit more realistic before you do anything else.
    Quote from: Henry on 15-January-10, 08:09:28
    For a system with a 220 installed PSU with +12V~30A minimum is recommended. My recommendation is to get nothing less than a quality PSU such as a Corsair VX450W +12V~33A. That junk PSU is typical of the worthless ones that are often provided by case manufacturers and examples of similar units that can be purchased for as little as $10 (USD) on eBay.
    Thank-you so much guys, you've most likely have just diagnosed and gave me a solution for my problem
    At first I never knew all PSU's were different, and that my new graphics card could handle whatever I had in my system at the moment.
    I don't think I will bother checking my PSU if my current PSU is a Okia or a Xion, I may as well upgrade the thing anyway
    Just some things I need cleared up though:
    Firstly, is it the Corsair VX450W that I would want to buy and install to run my card? Is it affordable?
    And secondly, are PSU's hard to install/upgrade? Where can I find a guide/tutorial for this kind of thing?

  • Lock-ups/freezes - Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT

    Hi all, I have been the owner of a MacBook Pro since August or so. My problem is that when working with my MacBook Pro, occasionally the display freezes up. Sometimes it recovers, sometimes the machine refuse to recover. If I listen to iTunes, I hear the music playing on in the background, which indicates that this is an issue with the graphics chip, and not the computer in general.
    I have searched the Internet, and it seems I am not the only one who has issues with the Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT. According to slashdot.org, Apple acknowledges that this may be an issue (http://apple.slashdot.org/apple/08/10/11/1518246.shtml).
    Have anyone else experienced these kinds of issues, and if you did, how did you solve them?

    Hello! I am feeling a little more secure now that there have been quite a few posts about the poor preformance of the nVidia cards in the SR Macbook Pros, its comforting to know this isn't an isolated issue. I've gone as far as contacting Apple to let them know of the poor preformance. They've were, as usual, very nice and as helpful as they are allowed to be. Currently, I have a replacment on the way apparently, my original was deemd DOA I believe. However, it seems at the time all we can do is report our issues to Apple. My main concern is the legnth of time these machines have been out, and the amount of units sold to unknowing customers who are being sold on what Apple is marketing as a strong feature of the machines: the graphics card. When in reality, the card is extraordinary, the preformance in OSX is extremely poor. It is up to us as consumers to let Apple know how aggrivated we are.
    Please, take the time and send your responses and feelings to Apple. You can do that here:

  • Lock-Ups and Freezes PLEASE HELP

    Hello everyone..
    I come here to see if anyone can help me... Ive done it all and nothing is working.
    I just recently started having problems with my computer, im not sure why this happend but ill try to explain everything as best as I can.
    The problem started a few days ago while I was playing SWG's. I was playing and all of a sudden my machine froze, the screen locked-up and then after about 2 min the entire system restarted. I then logged back into my windows and after a while a system froze and restarted yet again. I though it was a SWGs issue but then the computer would freeze while browsing the net and doing other tasks.
    I have formated my machine, re-installed my drivers, and re-installed the hardward. Nothing has worked.
    My computer specs are
    300watt PSU Enermax True Power
    MSI K7n2 nforce2 8xagp mobo
    athon 1700xp
    512mb of Kingmax DDR 2700
    SB audigy x-gamer sound card
    MSI geforce4 ti 4200 8xAGP graphics card
    Hope thats enough..
    One last thing... When my computer restarts after the problem i get a message asking me to report the problem to microsoft... i located the error file and this is what was writen in it....

    If what you are saying, and I am reading correctly:
    The machine and game was working just peachy and all of a sudden the problem manifested itself?
    Did you do ANYTHING to change your system prior to this happening to possibly have an effect?
    the fast that you said you have re-loaded the OS and removed and re-installed the hardware with the same result tells me that there may be some sort of hardware failure and this could get difficult to troubleshoot.
    First things first, try a memory testing software like memtest86 to see if you get any errors.

  • Pavilion Elite e9180f freezes, crashes, BSOD

    I am one of the many unhappy customers who bought this piece of junk (Pavilion Elite e9180f) and waited too long to return it because in my naivete, I thought it was some kind of simple software issue.  Nope!  It's definitely something wrong with the hardware, because the freezes and crashes have been happening since day 1, right when I took the thing out of the box.
    Yeah, the system is fast and runs Windows Vista great, when it's actually WORKING, which is usually only guaranteed for about the first 5 minutes after you power the system on and boot windows.  After that, it's just buying time before it crashes again.  Forget trying to get anything done on this computer.  Forget about asking this PC to play a video or music file without the files "stuttering" during playback.  Even my 7 year old Sony Vaio which is running XP can handle playing an MP3 file without stuttering and crashing!
    Like everyone else, the freezes and crashes happen either one of two ways:
    1) The machine begins to "stutter", stutter more, then freeze/crash.  When I say stutter, I mean I move the mouse, the pointer graphic will hesitate on the screen and lag behind.  If you start to play a video or music file, this manifests in an audible "stutter".  The stuttering gets worse and worse as minutes pass until eventually it freezes for good, blasting that 1/50th second moment of audio into infinity.  You have to reboot immediately if you don't want to go deaf or be driven mad.
    2)  I will be doing nothing at the time (example, I close all programs out and leave Windows sitting on the main desktop screen), I'll walk out of the room for a minute, then come back and find I can't move the mouse. This system will often lock-up without any warning!
    Sometimes I'll get a BSOD or error screen, sometimes I won't (in which case your only option is to do a cold re-boot.)  When I do get the BSOD, the error is ALWAYS the "did not get a response from the secondary processor" yada yada.  I wish HP would just admit they shipped this model out with a bad processor/motherboard/whatever and do an official recall.  I have owned PCs for the last 13 years and this is the worst and most consistently disappointing experience I have ever had.
    What is the hardware issue?  Which part is the lemon part?  The motherboard?  The processor?  The BSODs seem to indicate a bad processor.  I do have the Pegatron Truckee version 1.03 motherboard.  Is that the problem?
    P.S.  I have contacted HP on many occasions about this, literally stayed on the phone for hours with "customer support" (according to one HP rep, 80% of their customer service reps are based outside of the United States...good luck getting any "technical" help from them) to no avail.  I did talk to one nice tech support guy in Canada who said "it sounds like your unit has a bad processor", so he had HP send me a box to ship my unit to their repair center so they can replace the processor.  However, I have also had HP reps tell me it could be anything from the memory to the hard drive.  Multiple HP reps claimed to me that they have "received no complaints" about this system.  One guy told me he "thought he got an email last week" regarding "something" about the system, but couldn't remember what it was and he put me on hold while he searched for the email.  He never found it.  What a joke.
    EDIT:  Just to clarify, the crashing issue has been happening since day one, but initially I thought it was an issue with Vista.  I had never owned or used Vista before, so I thought maybe Vista was just unstable.  Nope.  I know several people who own Vista and have never experienced these issues.  I have downloaded every update from Microsoft/Windows Update.  I have upgraded to Vista SP2 with all the latest drivers and software for all of my hardware.  No luck.  It is definitely a hardware issue.  Thank god HP's warranty is good for 1 year (I bought my Elite in July).

    Unfortunately I have to add my disastrous encounter with HP's E9180F a true lemon HP is selling. I must take some responsibility for not carefully researching this model before I purchased, but I trusted the HP name and got stung- big time.
    The scoundrel  :
    HP and its Pavilion Elite e9180f
    Windows 7 64bit
    motherboard - Pegatron  Truckee ver 1.03
    BIOS ver  5.22Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67GHz
    Memory 9206 MB Ram   
    As so many others have reported my HP E9180f started locking up and going to BSOD right out of the box. My first freeze-up came when I was doing the Windows update process. At first I didn't think much about it but I started getting random freezes a couple time a day. At that point I went online to see if others had experienced the same problem and perhaps had a fix. What I found was very troubling;  I found extensive documentation describing my exact problems and what was really horrifying was the reports of how ridiculous HP's help services were treating people with the problem. At first I didn't totally believe what I was reading on HP's own customer forum; I do now.
    ·         I've went through the total recovery process three times now, HP techs have spent hours remotely running my computer, (yes it did lock up on them to)
    ·         I had to upgraded the BIOS. (HP tech tried, said he had, but he hadn't)
    ·         I was directed to clear the BIOS (luckily for me I had the tools
    ·         Updated all drivers again and again.
    ·         Next I was asked to remove the video card, memory, and motherboard power cable and reseat them. I declined because I didn't want to give HP any reason to void my HP 2 year House Call Care Pack which covers this unit. When I invited HP to send a service tech out to perform these tasks, they said that house call only covers part replacement, we weren't replacing a part. I couldn't believe what I was told. Are you feeling my frustration?  
    Keep in mind that each time HP requests that I make changes, they then ask me to test the system, which I did and each time with the same result, BSOD
    I'm heading into my fifth week of working with HP to fix this problem. and I still haven't even been able to get my case moved up to a senior case manager, what a joke HP's help process is.
     One conversation I loved was;
    HP tech: "I'll have a senior case manager call you within 24 hours."
    Skeptical me: "What should I do if I don't get a call?"
    Silence, no response.
    Me again: "What should I do if I don't get a call?"
    HP tech: "That's an impossibility."
    Guess what? The impossibility became reality (I bet you guessed) .
    HP's last stall tactic was to have me fax them my proof of purchase and invoice and call back in 24 hours. Where have I heard that before? Apparently nothing can go forward until they receive it. So I faxed them the stuff within 10 minutes, and when I called back 24 hours later, guess what, you're right it wasn't on their system yet. I asked couldn't I be escalated to a senior case manager  (it's apparent that only a senior case manager can do anything). "No," was the tech's reply, "call back again later".
    Please if anyone out there knows the secrete to getting a senior case manager, or an HP tech support number here in the U.S. so I can get this thing fixed I'd love to know it.
    Fast becoming HP never again.      

  • Mid 2009 13.3" Macbook Pro random freezing issue

    Hi all,
    I had a 2009 13.3" Unibody Macbook and last week purchased a 13.3" Macbook Pro. I had installed 4GB of RAM in the MB myself, and it had worked fine for the month I owned it.
    I backed up my MB with an external USB hard drive using Time machine, restored from this backup on my MBP and moved the 4GB RAM over.
    When using the MBP I get random freezes lasting between 1 and 3 seconds, occuring every 5 to 30 minutes.
    Could someone please advise a good way to diagnose this problem further? I am guessing it is not the RAM as it worked fine whilst in the MB.

    I have an update!
    I made an appointment with a local Apple Genius Bar and talked to a technian. He said it was neither the RAM nor the Hard Drive at fault.
    His only thoughts were that a software issue was the root cause. I have been doing some serious investigating this morning and figured it out. Viewing system.log in Console shows:
    SMS::infiniteIntTimerEventHandler ERROR: we have infinite interrupts, disabling
    At exactly 5 minute intervals. These correlate with the freezes (to the second).
    SMS refers to the Apple Sudden Motion Sensor. I disabled this by doing "sudo pmset -a sms 0" in Terminal, rebooted and everything is fine.
    I have no idea why the SMS thinks the Macbook is falling every 5 minutes, but when it occures the hard drive heads are locked down to prevent damage, which is a perfect reason as to why iTunes would crash but Spotify (streaming internet music) does not.
    Problem solved!
    Edit:
    In reply to some questions posted by other members (thank you by the way).
    I did install EFI 1.7 update. I did not use the Migration assistance. At some point I will do a fresh install then pick and choose parts from a backup rather than using a full Time Machine Restore. This could still have been the root cause of the issue, but it is hard to tell.
    Thanks guys!
