Cdrom detected on and off?

I have a 5 month-old KT3 Ultra2 and it is so weird!  I took my burners and cdrom out of my old system (where they were both working flawlessly) and put them into this one.  Well, from day one the cdrom refused to work (the activity light on the drive just turns on and stays on forever), but the burner was ok.  Now the burner stoped working too.  Sometimes when I reboot, the BIOS detects the burner, other times it doesn't.  Sometimes when it detects it and windows boots up and I put in a CD the computer locks up.
This is so bizzare!  I have tried two other cables and updating the BIOS.  Just want to make sure that it's the mobo that has gone crazy and not me...?
Thanks!

Try them one at a time.
Are they properly jumpered in case you rearanged the way they are hooked up on the IDE channels ?

    when you have the same issue after the SMC reset:
    put new batteries in the MM (even if the others are not empty), turn Bluetooth off then on again on the MBA, take all USB connections out (if any), delete the pairing of the MM and re pair the MM.

  • HT4061 found old iphone 4. want to use it for wifi. But it wont let me into my iphone. it says activation required and then plug into itunes, then as soon as I plug it into itunes it flashes the apple logo on and off and wont be detected on itunes.

    found olf iphone 4 or 4s in the back of my parents closet. They told me I could now have it back and its been a year since the last time I saw it. It wont turn on unless it is plugged up to a wall plug in. But as soon as I turn it on it says activation required then it says plug into itunes. After I try doing that it plugs into my computer but flashes the apple logo on and off. It wont even turn on all the way when plugged into computer...only the wall. ANY IDEAS?): and no I didnt steal/find this phone. It is mine. I dont have the guts to steal but a lot of people online have accused me.

    You may need to force it into recovery mode. See here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17766427#17766427

  • Computer shuts on and off some corrupted files - no virues now

    Listed below are some of the errors I found on event log in the laptop:
    I have a Qosimo 8 megs of memory, windows 7 64 bit. Running AVAST 7.0 antivirus and Malwarebytes - both paid subscriptions. I think the model number is 830 530 I bought in 2009.
    The shutdown problem has
    been happening on and off for the last six months. I had two major instances of trojans taking over my machine and it caused constant shutdowns. AVAST worked with me on one and they had me use malwarebytes and spybot and hijack this. They took over my computer to get it up and running properly, but this new round of errors a trojan was found in the registry key and the startuptoolbar. Two nights ago I had another shut down several times and after running malwarebytes and antivirus I could find no errors so I’m leaning toward corrupted files? Is there anyway to fix these files without having to reformat the hard drive?
    I did run a computer repair and a computer memory repair tonight using F8 and no problems were found by the computer. I’m not sure what to do with these errors in event viewer.. I get the toshiba error
    quite often and it madely stops me from going online with my internet connection, and I had downloaded a newer version but same problem – I use windows repair in network and the error is always resetting the toshiba network IP. I just put a note into toshiba on that problem.
    I also use microsoft silverlight for my fenderfuse application which needs that software operate properly. I’m not sure exactly what to do with that Custom dynamic link libraries are being loaded for every application. It states to check libraries – but what am I checking for? I do not have a lot of programs on the laptop but not sure what to look for in library?

    Sometimes my computer shuts down often on its own and I find a Trojan - other times it shuts down often during a start up and I find no viruses as was the case yesterday.  Today I did not get on the internet and the computer worked fine.  
     I guess I need to know if there is a way to reinstall the corrupted files without having to go back to the default settings when I got the computer.  Does toshiba have a windows repair disc that works better then what I did with using F8 and having a system repair and memory check done that found no errors?  I also installed the latest Toshiba service station and it did not fix the error problems in events log.  When I did a restore it was before this was added so now my computer is working properly with windows on connecting to the internet wireless.
    Malwarebytes said that by looking at these event viewer logs that it does not appear that I have a virus now but I do have corrupted files and can toshiba help me in getting them fixed.  I really hate to do a complete reformat.
    Thanks

  • DV7T quad core fan on and off on and off repeatly

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone experience this fan problem. Just today, I opened quite a few chrome tabs, maybe like 50 or so. And after a few hours of usage, suddenly the fan started to turn on and off on and off at every 1 second interval. So I shut down the laptop and restarted it. Of course now it's back to normal. But could this be a symptom of something in the hardware? Overheating? Too many application open? Any hardware fault detection program that can find the problem?
    (I do quite a bit of high graphics gaming on this laptop sometimes and never experienced any problem before)

    Hi Rainallthetime,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP dv7t Notebook not working correctly. Here is a link  on Overheating. The overheating could cause the computer to keep shutting down or the fans not working constantly. I would also check to make sure your BIOS does not need updating.
     50 open Windows in Chrome is likely to cause overheating and then shutting down.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • G5 computer flashing on and off... broken??

    I was on the phone with Apple for something and they said to press command + option + P + R. Then my computer started making a really weird noise and the power light was blinking on and off three times then stopping... then repeating over and over. HELP ASAP!! Please! I talked to Apple again and they said I have to take it in to the store!! Anyone know how to fix this??
    I shouldn't have to use up my own time for something Apple did! 

    Is this an iMac G5 we are talking about here?  PowerMac8.1 would indicate thus.
    Normally, the three-flash sequence indicates a problem with the RAM in the machine.  The G5 iMac information I have (not necessarily complete, mind you) indicates that it uses beeps, rather than flashes, but it could be either.
    Some further questions, then something to try.
    What problem were you having when you were advised to to the PRAM reset?
    Was there anything else you were told to try and did try before doing the PRAM reset?
    Now, something you can try is to simply reseat the RAM modules in the computer.  Or, if you have multiple modules (or sets), remove one module (or set) at a time and try to boot.
    The following may or may not apply to your machine, but is can serve as a guide:
    RAM and Processor Verification: Power-On Self Test
    A power-on self test in the computer’s ROM automatically runs whenever the computer is started up after being fully shut down (the test does not run if the computer is only restarted). If the test detects a problem, the status LED located above the power button on the front of the computer will flash in the following ways:
    • 2 Flashes: No RAM is installed or detected.
    • 3 Flashes: Incompatible RAM types are installed.
    • 4 Flashes: No RAM banks passed memory testing.

  • HT201210 I tried to update my iphone4, in the middle it gave an error and now when try to connect it the computer doesnt even detects it and neither does itunes

    I tried to update my iphone4, in the middle it gave an error and now when try to connect it the computer doesnt even detects it and neither does itunes

    Power the phone off completely. Plug the USB end of the cord into the computer, leaving the other end unplugged from the phone. While the phone is powered off, open up iTunes, hold down the home button on the phone, and plug in the USB cord to the phone, making sure you keep holding down the home button. In about 15 seconds you should get a pop-up in itunes saying that it's detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Click 'Ok' and 'Restore'.
    Your iOS update crashed and your phone is in recovery mode. The good news is that this will fix it, bad news is that unless you had everything backed up in either iTunes or iCloud, you've lost everything as your phone was wiped when the iOS update crashed.

  • My iphone won't turn on at all and when i connect it to a charger the apple sign just flashes on and off but does not turn on?

    I've tried charging it overnight and it still will not turn on, when connected to the charger the apple sign just goes on and off but does not do anything, i've tried resetting it and this also does not work, but then once taken off the charger it doesn't even say the sign for charging it just does nothing

    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

  • TS3018 my new iphone 5 will not play selected tunes.  It skips around at random for songs.  I tried turning the shuffle feature on and off but no luck.  It also doesn't do it on every song selected.  When it does it, it seems to play the same set of songs

    I have a new iphone 5 that won't play selected music.  When you try and pick a particular song is skips around randomly to another song.  I've tried turning the shuffle on and off with no luck.

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

    If a reset doesn't work, you may want to force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

    Really? I need to check that out!
    You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
    I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

    Try switching it back from landscape to vertical. Or, go to settings and see if you have any special setting turned on that enable only landscape view. Also, try hooking it up to your computer and charging it to see what happens.

  • I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

    I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?  Please??? :-)

    Hi Kelly,
    As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
