Creator 3D UPA card problem on an Ultra 10

Guys,
When I first bought the Ultra 10 (440MHz,512MB and no Creator3D), I
connected to the VGA and minimal installed Solaris 8.
OBP version = 3.25
Then I bought a creator 3D card + 13W3 adaptor, installed the card in
the UPA slot and got myself into the following troubles, when I
connected the PC monitor via 13W3 adaptor to the UPA card:
#1. I get this message all the time: Can't find driver for console
framebuffer
#2. If I boot off the hard disk (solaris 8) I get to the stage when it
is trying to launch X desktop, then hangs.
#3. After searching the web, I realized that perhaps the necessay
drivers were not installed in Solaris 8. So I tried to install Solaris
10 6/06. This time I get the error:
Fast Data Access MMU Miss. I also learnt that this is a very difficult
error to investigate.
Please can anyone help me to sort this issue? My goal is to install
Solaris 10 to learn.
I have NO idea of any of the OBP commands. Any help will be
appreciated.
TIA
AS
P.S: I would rather not update the OBP, unless I have to. I already spoilt a Linksys router.

Hello,
If you are refering to my posts on google groups (comp.unix.solaris etc)
I was referring to the thread you started on August 7th:
Ultra 10 and PCI USB cards
Maxtor 160GB IDE HDD and SUN ULTRA 10
Creator 3D card substitutes for SUN Ultra 10
a direct solution would have been useful to me
Two choices:
1. Read the manuals, browse the net, then ask
2. Get paid support
If you want free support, choice 2 is out of question.
When you install the Creator 3D card it becomes the primary video (=output is automatically directed to this card).
This is the expected output
ok devalias
screen /SUNW,ffb@1e,0
if this is your output (=Creator not the primary video)
ok devalias
screen /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2
Either the Creator 3D is bad or not properly seated (unlikely because Solaris 8 reported the lack of the console drivers).
Use the following commands
ok show-displays
a) /SUNW,ffb@1e,0
b) /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2
q) NO SELECTION
Enter Selection, q to quit: a
/SUNW,ffb@1e,0 has been selected.
Type ^Y ( Control-Y ) to insert it in the command line.
e.g. ok nvalias mydev ^Y
for creating devalias mydev for
/SUNW,ffb@1e,0
ok nvalias myscreen /SUNW,ffb@1e,0
ok setenv output-device myscreen

GT70-0NE Potential graphics card problems

Ohai
I started playing Borderlands 2 on my new laptop (has geforce GTX 680M), most graphically intense game I have and I've encountered a problem.
It is very similar to the one someone else is having here https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=166035.0.
Anyway as described, my performance rate would drop suddenly and horribly (from 60 capped to 20 to 40) and each time was characterised with a drop in GPU usage to between 15% to 50%. This is also when I ran my laptop on turbo mode and on the gaming eco setting.
Memory usage, memory clock and core clock did not notice any major hiccups during the performance drops.
Temperature of the GPU was at 75C to 90C (highest peak) for most of the game, regardless of what was happening. Setting the fan to 100% would drop the GPU by 10C (down to 65C to 80C).
My CPU and RAM appear to be operating fine with no noticeable spikes or drops.
I have the latest drivers installed, and also have Nvidia Geforce Experience installed, which has set my game graphics to suit my laptop (basically everything max except for PhysX).
The most unusual thing is that it happens randomly. Happens more often when I run by a wall or look over a vast area. It often happens when nothing special is happening on screen, and scoping and descoping my weapon will cause the framerate to go back to 60.
GPU usage when its fine tends to be between 80% to 99%.
I've listed all I can think of to help, any further questions/help would be appreciated.

The card should be able to handle BL2 on max with at least 50fps http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-675M.70785.0.html Check the benchmarks.
The problem with a site like that, is that it says 52.8. Is that 52.8 average? Is that while standing in 1 place? There's no real relativity to that number, it's just a number. For all we know, 52.8 FPS was the maximum FPS.
People need to come to an understanding that this is still a laptop. The GTX675MX is around the same performance level as a desktop GTX650/GTX660. Do you think those cards play BL2 at ultra and maintain 52 FPS all the time? I know I don't......
My GT70 with a GTX680M barely maintains 30 FPS in ultra with a large number of enemies and things happening on screen. Normally, just running around, it runs at around 60 FPS. Just something to consider......

MacBook Pro 15" video card problems (i think)

Can anyone tell me if this is indeed a video card problem?
MBP 15" info (Dec. 2011)
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
OS X Lion 10.7.5
This is what happened:
I use my mbp heavily because I edit a lot of videos with Premiere. I also use lightroom / photoshop alot + games. I also installed Parallels desktop late 2013. I don't know if that is relevant but anyway. Everything started late 2013 (a little after installing parallels actually) when there are moments when the audio wouldn't work and I couldn't adjust the volume. It would come back anyway so i didn't mind it. Then the fans were on high speed for little activity. After that the keyboard backlight couldn't be adjusted and wouldnt work. I ignored all of these cuz i wasn't troubling me at the time. In January i left for france to study - I use bike all the time and once stupidly placed my laptop on the basket going to school (rough roads). I had a class with html so I had to open Parallels, my teacher pointed out the fans and how loud they were. That day, parallels desktop said i must upgrade to windows 9 or it will restart every 2hours. I didn't of course. I didn't have time to.
After that (a few days later i think) my laptop would randomly turn into a black screen but it's still on (the power LED is on) I tried turning it off by pressing down the power button and then turning it back on. It worked the first time. During the first week, the frequency of it happening grew. It would do it almost 3 times a day. during that same week I tried to do an SMC reset. It fixed the keyboard light, fans and audio but not the black screen thing. It just keeps on happening around 1-3 times a day. It only happens when I'm using it btw, never when I just leave it. ALSO, after a few days, it would take longer hours to open my mbp again. I mean, the screen would turn black. i would turn it off, then on again. I will ONLY hear the hard drive moving but no startup sound and no grey screen and apple logo. nothing.
The following weeks after that, I asked a friend to help me out. He suggested that I install gfxCardStatus because he said it might be my video card. He instructed that I keep it on intergrated only. So I installed that and did what he said I thought it worked for a while because the black screens stopped happening (even when gfx keeps on going back to dynamic) BUT NOW, MY LAPTOP WOULD FREEZE (not turn black). I'd shut it down using the power button but it still takes me hours to open it again. Sometimes, I'd wait for the battery to drain because it would startup when i charge it (sometimes)
I tried doing AHT as well to confirm the video card problem, but the results are no problems found. I really don't want to replace my logicboard here in france. everything is more expensive here. ;__;
Today I uninstalled parallels to see if that might have had anything to do with my problem now but i think that's just wishful thinking.
Can somebody tell me if this is really about the video card? Thank you

Your appointment at the genius Bar in an Apple Store (anywhere in the world) for an evaluation is FREE, in warranty or out. Those guys put their hands on these Macs all day every day, and they are especially good at Physical and Power problems.
Ask them.

Graphic card problem maybe? Since when I have changed the hard drive to my macbook pro and I installed all the new softwares, my mac is very slow and the screen gives crazy pictures,could maybe be the graphic card, does anybody have experienced this?

after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

Problem in installing Ultra Search

Hi all,
We are facing problem while installing Ultra Search for Oracle 9i in Sun Solaris server. The Ultra Search documentation says that the middle tier component includes the following :
1. Ultra Search admininstration tool
2. Ultra Search Java query API
3. Ultra Search Java server page sample query qpplication
But we are unable to see it either in the Oracle Universal Installer's list of installed components or in the database server's file system. The documentation says that for deploying the Ultra Search Administration Tool on a Third Party Middle Tier, the ear file :
$ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/webapp/ultrasearch_admin.ear
should be present. But we cannot find the directory "webapp" at that location.
Does the ear file already get extracted during installation ?
Are the three components listed above shown in the Oracle Universal Installer's list ?
Where can we get the ear file for installation on a Third Party Application Server (iPlanet Server) ?
Can anyone outline the Installation process for Ultra Search ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I assume you are installing Oracle 9iR2.
It seems OUI did not install most of the Ultra Search files. Can you check in your
oraInventory/Components directory for oracle.isearch.*?
You should see
oracle.isearch.client
oracle.isearch.is_common
oracle.isearch.server
If not, these components have not been installed. Please check your installation procedure
to make sure the following are checked:
Oracle Ultra Search Middle-Tier
Oracle Ultra Search Common Files
Oracle Ultra Search Server
follow up with me if you still have problems.

Credit Card problem

Hi,
Due to to the Adobe securety problem, I requested a new credit card from my card provider and updated the payment details 24th of October.
The card was debited by Adobe the 25th, but still, I get a warning when I start a CC app stating that there is a problem with the payment and CC will stop wotking in 13 days. Adobe has recieved my money so please fix this asap.
I have been in contact with Chat-support two time, but no help from them
/Stefan

After many,many, many hours of trying I was finally not refused when trying to connect to your payment server (as a first time buyer). So I was asked for my credit card details for the purchase of an application - which I stated. But when I tried to confirm the purchase, my VISA card was refused twice due to "Credit card error". As I know there is nothing wrong with my credit card, please tell me what to do in order to purchase applications from the ovi store. I don't want to pay many times over for an application which I never downloaded from OviStore. But I anyhow also tried my AmEx-card for the purchase of another app, but same "Credit-card" problem. To say that "I am not amused" with my OviStore experience so far must be the understatement of the century.

Video card problem ?

I had this problem 4-5 times
http://img.skitch.com/20081219-e1t87if23rjbhf66gy2dj2aux4.jpg
can someone help me ? could it be a video card problem ? anyone had this problem ?
I have to force shut down and it's quite annoying
thanks

Restart your MacBook and hold down on the "d" key for "diagnostics". This will startup the MacBook into the Apple Hardware Test. Run the extended tests. Let's see if you don't get an error when it checks the video system.

Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement

Is anyone still having discrete graphics card problems after replacement?
Macbook Pro eligible for replacement through Apple program.
Submitted my computer 2 days before program came into effect.
They replaced card or logic board with same original model: AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB
Issued me a refund check for my repair.
Seems to have some noticeable issues, fan running more than usual again, and temporary graphic lines,
but disappear too fast before a screen dump...
Is anyone who has participated in the replacement program received a different graphic card for
Model Macbook Pro 17" (late 2011)
Thank you for the reply.

Unfortunately I have yet to call AppleCare because I am on a project for 3 weeks and cannot be without my laptop during that period....
Until that time I am trying to figure out what I can do to protect the Palm Rest/Mouse Pad area of my Macbook once they either fix it or give me a new one. Has anyone had any experience with either of these products that can provide some input as to whether they are good or bad?

I solved my credit card problem

..adobe couldn't charge my monthly payment today because of my credit card problem..and my membership changed to non-payment membership...my credit card problem solved now....how can i change my membership to payment membership again..

Hi erincertuggoktas,
I would just like to add Romit's reply that you can try this & check if it works,
1. Sign out & sign back in to CCapp (desktop).
2. Launch any product, it will throw a prompt to renew the subscription, at the bottom an option of "license this software" will be displayed.
3. Please click on this & it will ask you to sign in & the subscription should be activated.
Note:The process works when the subscription is active & payment transaction has been completed.

Rajshree

Audigy 2 sound card problems

I am hoping that someone out there can help me in a crucial situation.
I am using an Audigy 2 sound card with creative 5. speakers.
I also use Adobe Audition to edit, record sessions for my voice-over jobs.
Recently, I attempted to hook up a web cam so that I could see my grand daughter on the west coast.
After hooking up the web cam, I noticed my home studio environment changed drastically. I began having trouble with recording using my microphone through my Macki mixer. I began hearing a continuous hiss that I had never experienced before.
In fact after uninstalling the web cam, and restarting my computer, I got that horrible blue screen on my computer indicating the world was about to end! Smile
Long story short, I was able to finally get my computer back up, but I continue to experience problems recording "clean' audio".
Three things, after reinstalling Creative from disc several times and restarting my computer I receive a window stating Creative Media Source Detector.....Unable to load needed components....Please reinstall the application"
Also, when trying to test my sound hardware I get a message stating...Direct play voice setup..."an error occurred during direct play voice setup....error code 0x80004005
Last but not least I cannot access the "Creative diagnostic feature on my computer. I only get a small window for this feature that will not open up fully and allow me to run a diagnostic test!
I know this is a lot to absorb, but I cannot get anyone from Creative to address my problems because I am out of warranty and therefore not getting any love from this company.
Need your advice and or guidance on this.
Please respond when time allows.
Vopro

Re: Audigy 2 sound card problems? use add/remove programs and remove all creative software and drivers, then do the same for your web cam and unplug it
restart your pc
download and install [url="http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-%28Setup%29-download-655.html" rel="nofollow">driver sweeper[/url] and use it to clean up any left over creative bits and bobs and restart your pc when it asks you to
now download and install the [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/product_list.aspx?catID=&CatName=Sound+Blaster" rel="nofollow">latest audigy drivers[/url]
once your back in to windows try recording something and see if everything's back to normal
now reinstalling your web cam but don't reinstall using the cd that came with it
find the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers
install cd's best avoided simply because the software and drivers they contain are typically the initial release versions, and so potentially very old
and i think we can all agree that old, buggy drivers can be a real pain

MacPro Early 2008 Display/Video Card Problem

*Hello, I have a Dual Quad-Core 2.8Ghz MacPro (Early 2008) with the stock ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB Video Card. I believe I am having the exact same symptoms listed on the topic "Mac Pro 2008 Video Card Problem".*
*MacPro has been working fine. Until one day, I power it on and the display stays black. There is nothing you can do besides holding down the power button and rebooting the computer. I have tried to do this many times and the display will not come up. I have also tried resetting the VRAM and PRAM settings - still did not work. I have had my MacPro for about one year and a half. It is in very good condition (no damage/no liquid/no overheating). From time to time, you power on the computer and the display works! It is very random. I am scared to turn off the computer or put it to sleep as this can also trigger the problem.*
*I did not get the extended AppleCare (the MacPro itself already cost me about $3400!) I tested the Cinema Display and it is fine, therefore the problem is not coming from the display.*
*I went to the Apple Store and they kept my MacPro for one night. Called me the next day telling me it was going to cost me approximately $800 in order to fix this problem. They claimed that either my Bluetooth module or my Main Logic Board was causing the display not to show. I am out of warranty, and I think it is very expensive. I am doing my research online in order to try and find a cheaper solution. After reading the discussions and checking out some other websites. I have a few questions:*
*If I buy a NEW* ATI Radeon HD 2600 and install it in my MacPro - will it fix my problem?*
*OR - I also heard about the ATI Radeon HD 4870 - Is that graphic card compatible with my MacPro - will that resolve the problem?*
*Do you think I should give it a shot? Are there any other things I can try?*
*I am thinking that I should try to replace the graphic card first and see if that is causing the problem instead of replacing the Main Logic Board right away (which will cost me over $500)*
*Please let me know of any thoughts that come in mind. I really need some support. I am a college student studying Audio Engineering and I use my MacPro everyday on Pro Tools and Logic. This machine is my life.*
*Thank You,*
*Kevin C.*

Glad you solved your problem Gaunja. Here's an update on my own.
When last heard from I had diagnosed the failure of my displays to boot up to graphics card problem in my early 2008 Mac Pro with my stock ATI Radeon HD 2600 by swapping out the same card from my son's Mac Pro and seeing the displays boot up fine. Before heading off to the Apple store for a new card I reinstalled my suspect video card just to see what would happen. The displays booted up fine. Now, two weeks later, again no video display--black screens--no signal from the graphics card. I rebooted the computer several times to no avail and was, again, about to head off to the Apple store for a new card. This time "just to see what would happen" I moved the graphics card to another slot and bingo, the displays are up. What can be determined from my experience to date?
1. The graphics card is flirting with death. Like a patient unwilling to die, through a mysterious force, it rallies to live another day.
2. The slot the card came installed in is unreliable--it's dirty, there's a spec of dust in there, a contact has degraded after two years, or some other slot related fault. Note that, until the card failed for the first time, it had never been removed from it's slot, the computer was treated gently, and it operated in a very clean environment.
If anyone has another theory about what may be happening here please feel free. I fully expect the displays to go dark again at some point as my suspicions are that it's the card itself that is the problem. The two replacement cards I'm considering are the ATI Radeon HD 4870 or the Nividia Geo Force GT120. I've read that both work with the early Mac Pros. Some complain that the ATI card is noisy and expensive. Based of Gaunja's post and others I think the Nividia card will suit my needs, be quieter, and cost less. But, for now, my stock ATI Radeon 2600 lives!
Just one man's experience with the "Mac Pro display, black screen" problem.

i been having sim card problems with my iphone 5. am i the only one?

Hello,
I'm also had problems with Iphone 5 , it read no sim card, i solved problem by removing sim card and cleaning with alcohol and q-tip and installing back.
Shut down phone.
On the side of phone , you will see a small pin hole, insert paper clip and sim card will come out, be careful to do it over a clean towel as not to let drop on floor, make sure your hands clean while doing this.
Insert sims card back and turn on, it should work again.
Good Luck.

HP Pavilion G4 1003-TX Graphic Card Problem

Hello... I have HP pavilion G4 1003TX laptop which cureently having graphic card problem. Technician at my place said that's caused by the solder connection on my Radeon graphic card. He said it can be repaired, but the same problem will happen again soon unless i replaced my graphic card with new one.
In my laptop, i have Radeon and Intel graphic card which i can switch freely. My question is, if i change from my Radeon to my Intel graphic card, is my graphic card problem solved? Is my laptop still will not last long unless i buy new graphic card?
Please help me if you know the answer. Thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

So my laptop will not start after i turned it on. The technician said it because some solder connection on the graphic card so it need to be resoldered. He warn me that the same problem will happen again soon since it's sign that my VGA card will dead. After he resoldered, my laptop can work normally for 3 months. Now, after 3 months, my laptop can't start again just like before. The technician said it because of solder connection of my VGA card again.
So, since my laptop has Intel and Radeon VGA card that i can switch, is switching my VGA card form Radeon to Intel will solve my Radeon VGA card dead problem? Will my laptop can work normally if i switch my VGA card to Intel?
