Dell optiplex 755 won't boot with NI PCI Fieldbus card installed

After installing NI Configurator 3.1.0 on new Dell optiplex 755 and then installing the NI PCI Fieldbus card the pc won't boot up.
This card works fine 745 and older dell pc's.
Anybody else having this problem?

Hi,
In which step does the boot process fail? Is there any error message?
After installing NI-FBUS 3.1, please go to Windows Device Manager, check whether the driver of PCI-FBUS is correctly installed. There should be no any error in Device Manager.
You can try the following methods.
1. Change to another PCI slot.
2. Use Windows XP. NI-FBUS 3.1 does not support Windows Vista.
3. If there exist other PCI devices in the system, remove them and try using PCI-FBUS only.
4. Update the drivers of Dell Optiplex 755 if there are new versions, including video card, ethernet card, etc.

If possible, you might want to try the card on another computer. This should tell you if the card is faulty or if there's something else that needs work on your current system.
If you are unable to test the card on another computer or if the card does work on another system, you might want to contact support and providing the system information so that they can assist you. Be sure to run the system information utility only after you have installed the sound card on the system in question.

Trouble installing Solaris 10(x86) u4 8/07 on a new Dell OptiPlex 755

Hello All,
I'm having trouble installing Solaris 10(x86) u4 8/07 on a new Dell OptiPlex 755.
I have also tried installing opensolaris 9/07 Express Dev snv_70b with the same issue.
I tried disabling all unnecessary hardware in the BIOS as well.
After GNU GRUB loads and I select Solaris install after about 20 dots.... I get:
WARNING: /pci@0,0/pci1028,211@1d, 7
No SOF interrupts have been received
this USB EHCI host controller is unusable
Hardware:
Dell OptiPlex 755 Small Form Factor, Pentium Dual Core, E2160/1.8GHz1M,800FSB,1GB ram.
I am only installing Solaris 10 - no other OS will be on the HD.
Is there any hope for getting SolX installed on this machine or should I return this hardware and by a different model? I have to build 2 pc's with SolX for development boxs.
Thank you in Advance,

(basically one with PC1/2 missing for keyboard and Mouse)I am a genuinely concerned guy, so please don't mind the rudeness in this question.

Biege G3 won't boot with OS 9.2

I purchased a biege G3 MT with OS 8.6 on eBay. Unfortunately, the OS is in French. I upgraded that to OS 9.2 and now it won't boot. No chime and it stops after the first icon during startup. It won't boot with extensions off nor with the CD. I tried resetting pram, etc. without any luck. Loaded it with 8.5 and it works. Took another HD with 10.2 from another biege G3 and it works. It just doesn't like 9.2, but I have 9.2 running in another biege G3. Are there G3 that won't work with 9.2? Please help.
biege g3 Mac OS 9.2.x

Hi elpro,
Here's a bunch of stock responses you'll hear on the G3 forum.
Is the 9.2 CD a universal installer (gold color), or a gray machine-specific CD, and if it is gray, is it the right one for your machine? Apple made gold CDs for general retail to work with all machines, and gray ones that were usually distributed with a machine with the components just for that machine. Unless you have a universal installer CD, the version of OS 9 you are trying to install may not have the right components for your system unless you happen to have one that matches your type of G3. If the 8.5 CD is the right one, and the OS X you say is from an identical machine then that may explain why they boot up but not your OS 9.
If you post your problem on the G3 forum you'll almost be sure to get this question. How old is the battery in this machine? G3s exhibit all kinds of weird and unexpected symptoms when the batteries are weak, and they go through them pretty quickly, especially if they have been unplugged for a long time. The battery helps preserve basic machine configuration information between bootups so if you're having problems with your monitor it might even be related to the battery. If in doubt, replace the battery.
The PRAM reset and extensions off are the other stock replies but you've tried those.

Macbook pro won't boot with two new 4GB RAM sticks.

I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro. It came with two 2GB RAM sticks. After downloading Lion, my computer started to get sluggish so I thought I would upgrade the ram. I bought two 4GB Corsair RAM sticks and tried to install them. My computer will boot up if I install one of the new 4GB sticks and leave an old 2GB stick; but it won't boot with both of the new 4GB sticks. Any ideas?

Late 2011 Macbooks uses DDR3 1333MHz 204 PIN.

Won't boot with external display connected

My MacBook Pro (circa 1997) won't boot with the external display connected. I can connect the external display (20in flat planel) after it has started, and it works just fine.
I have tried two different DVI cables (one of which I think is a DVI-A cable) and the DVI-to-VGA cable. The result is the same.
During the boot phase I get the tone, the apple logo and the progress wheel. After 30 seconds to one minute those disappear to be replaced by an empty blue screen.

In case anyone wonders, my "solution" was to change to a WB Elements Desktop 3TB (only USB 2.0 is currently available for this model). I miss the speed of USB 3.0, but it's much nicer to not have to remember to unplug and plug in the hard drive each time I boot.
Still hoping to see a proper solution to this (since I don't have the WB My Book anymore, I can't test adaher's suggestion).

PC won't boot with X-fi XtremeMusic

# This is my first post, so please tell me if I'm not giving enough info or anything..
I bought a X-fi XtremeMusic and wanted to try out.. So I plugged it into a free PCI slot to find out it wasn't working: I couldn't boot. The only thing that would happen were the casefans spinning, but my screen remained black.
I then tried to boot without the soundcard in the PCI slot, but my screen was still black.. Then I removed the onboard battery from the mainboard and waited a minute or two and put it back in: I was now able to boot again. I tried this one more time and exactly the same happened.
Now I read something about X-fi soundcards and nForce4 chipsets not meshing very well, but I have a gigabyte MA-790XT-UD4P mainboard, so this doesn't apply to me I assume.
Other specs: AMD Phenom II 720
XFX Radeon HD 4870
CoolerMaster 620w power supply
My question is: what could be causing this problem? Or is it possible that my card is broken?
Thanks!

'Re: PC won't boot with X-fi XtremeMusic? Yeah I tried it in both PCI slots, but none worked. Still I wonder about one thing, which I forgot to mention: When I replace the onboard battery and boot I get an error (which I resolve by using the last known good option instead of putting everything to stock value as I'm overclocking in the bios) that the bios checksum is incorrect, so putting in the card changes some value in the bios.. But what value? And does this imply that maybe updating my bios might solve the problem?
Also might I ask what bios revision you are currently using (I'm using the F4 bios)
About the case thing you might also be right: I do have some difficulty putting in the card as it doesn't fit perfectly. I have a CoolerMaster CM690 case which has tool-free fittings, but I can't get the fitting which holds the card down without using substantial force. This also causes the card to be in the PCI slot at a slight angle, I thought this wouldn't matter as the pins still connect, but may this be a problem? I already tried starting up without the case fitting holding the card in place and instead using my fingertips to hold in postion, though to no avail.
Oh and exactly what bracket should I look at (the one you referred to in your post)?

E450 won't boot with 4 cpus

E450, 4x300 CPU's all identical, will boot with any one, any two or any three of the five CPU's I have (one extra) but won't boot with any four installed.
When I do I get (transcribed from terminal - no ethernet) is sth like:
CPU0 has assumed the role of boot CPU
Online: CPU0: Ultra-II (V2.0) 3:1 2048kb 2-2 ECache MCap 13

Online: CPU2: unknown code (code 15) v15.15) ?:? 262080kb ?-? (type 15) ECache MCap 255Incompatable CPU Type -- DISABLED!]
Offline: CP
Hangs right there.
I have latest OP 3.30. Otherwise machine is perfect on three legs!
All points to me to being the top CPU slot maybe? I have a spare board so I'm going to try that.....
In the meantime, any ideas?

This is my home E450, I just got it, trying to max it out. I bought four bare ones for 99p, ie about 1.50 Euro....
I used memory from my old Ultra 60, which I thought where 128mb sets, turns out they where 256mb, which the U60 sees as 128mb it seems. Anyway, 3gb RAM now!!
Actually it's quiter than that the U60, a more satisfying low hum of quality iron. I want to take it bed with me!

PS I have a girlfriend but she's not interested in a threesome with the E450 :(

Sawtooth won't boot with anything plugged into it.

My G4 450 won't boot with anything plugged into it at all. The power will go on but no boot. If I unplug everything (except the power cord) it will boot with a chime. Anyone know what the problem could be?

rs6er:
Well, it's likely to be a problem with the video card, the monitor, or the monitor cable. (I assume that this is your normal monitor which was just recently working on your Mac.)
Some thoughts... Have you tried reseating the video card? Does the monitor power on? Do you have another monitor and cable you can swap and try? Will it boot to Safe Mode ("s" key depressed at startup) with the monitor attached?

PowerMac DP G4 Won't Boot With All RAM Sticks Installed

A few weeks ago, my 800 MHz dual-processor G4 started having frequent kernel panics. I tried all sorts of things, including changing the PRAM battery, resetting the firmware, and resetting the PMU. Then, one day, it would only power up but not boot, so I took it in for repairs.
The shop I took it to determined that the logic board was malfunctioning and replaced it. The computer no longer has any kernel panics.
The machine was designed for three 500 MB RAM sticks, which is what it had ever since I bought it over five years ago. Now, apparently, it won't boot with the last one installed, though it will with two. The shop replaced the new logic board and and even swapped RAM, but the problem still persists. Neither the power supply nor the hard drive appear to be malfunctioning.
Does anyone have any ideas what's going on? Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

squeakmaster, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you tried the following with one 512MB RAM stick:
1. Palce it in the first RAM slot. Does the Mac boot?
2. If so, remove the stick & place it in the second RAM slot. Does it boot?
3. If so, remove the stick & place it in the third RAM slot. Does it boot?
The results of this test should reveal (1) if the stick boots in one or more RAM slots, the RAM is good and (2) if it fails to boot in a RAM slot, there is a problem with that slot.
Do this with each of the tree RAM sticks & post back the results.
When the logic board was replaced, was the firmware updated to be compliant with OS X. (Note - The firmware is installed on a chip on the logic board.) Check your Mac's firmware (Boot ROM version) version. Mac OS X: Available firmware updates
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117 If an update is required, the update must be installed (using OS 9) BEFORE you install OS X.
Can you boot up in OS 9.x? If so you can use DIMM First Aid - Check & recover disabled (missing) RAM from Apple's latest firmware updates http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macos/10415

2nd HDD bay with HDD = notebook won't boot with HDD in 2nd HDD bay

I recently came into a Pavilion DV9308 Notebook. It was in decent shape, well looked new and since I like tinkering with laptops and the motherboard had the dreaded NVIDIA GPU failure going on, I sent the motherboard out to my motherboard dude and he put a newer NVIDIA video chip in, made some adjustments and modifications to the heatsink cooler etc. Along with my modifications including vent holes and sealing up the fan blowing assembly so when the fan turned on the hot air would leave the laptop it now runs Windows 7 64 bit with a 64GB Kingston OS SSHD and 4GB DDR2 800mhz ram. It runs like lightning and impresses people when they see it boot up in 15 seconds.
The problem is and the whole reason I picked this notebook to restore is because it has two acutal hard drive bays. Well ever since I've gotten the notebook It will not boot with a hard drive in both bays or a hard drive in Bay #2. I had to send the repaired motherboard back once because one of the ram slots wasn't working so this is happening on two different motherboards. I cannot find a reason why this is happening and have yet to find anyone that can help me with this. Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong? I have all the correct drivers I think and the laptop runs at 130"F when pushed to the max! That is amazing compared to what it originally ran. It would be awesome if someone could please help me with this. Thanks.

Hello jason9922. I understand your notebook won't boot with a hard drive in the second bay.
When you say that the notebook won't boot with a drive in the second bay what exactly do you mean? Does the CAPS LOCK key flash or do you get an error?
When you have the hard drive installed can you access the BIOS? If so, is the hard drive detected within the BIOS?
I'll keep an eye out for your response. Have a great day!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

IMac G5 with new Seagate 250 won't boot with 10.4.8

I had to replace the original Maxtor 250 GB drive in my iMac G5 (17") today. It used to work perfectly with upgrade 10.4.8. But, the computer now fitted with a Seagate Barracuda 250 GB won't boot after 10.4.8 is installed. It does boot with the Tiger original install from the DVD. Something in the upgrade corrupts the drive. Maybe it is this specific drive, I don't know. There are errors reported by Disk Utility when I run it from the Tiger DVD after I've installed the 10.4.8 upgrade (from the web).
Did that happen to someone else ?

My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard (via my MacBookPro), either from the HD or DVD drive. Can't get it to run Hardware Test. Disk Utility says disk OK - files are there. What can I do?

My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard. I erased and re-installed by putting the iMac in Target Disk mode and usin my MacBookPro as the host. But after numerous attempts I still can't get it to boot either from the HD or DVD drive. I just get the white screen after the wheel stops spinning. I can't get it to run Hardware Test - just get the white screen. If I use Disk Utility via my MBP it says the disk appears OK. All the Snow Leopad files appear to have been installed. What can I do?

Perhaps you installed the wrong version OS X onto the iMac, you can't use the disk from another Mac.

If it's not working then use this method to create a bootable 10.6 USB from the iMac machine specific 10.6 disk or the 10.6.3 retail disk on your other Mac, use it to boot the iMac with.
