Satellite A50-105 will only start in safe mode or enable VGA mode

After cleaning all the rubbish off my computer I must have deleted something I should not have. When I start it up the Windows Xp screen comes up then after a while it just goes blank. I can start it up in safe mode or VGA enabled but when I try to change the screen resolution from 640 x 480 pixels and Low (8bit) the screen goes blank. Can anybody help me please.

Hi
Maybe you have to install the compatible graphic card driver?
Choose the right graphic driver from the Toshiba European driver page and try to install it!

I remember this message from the first time i played around with the vga= kernel option long time ago. There is basically now way around it and I'm not sure if it does produce any problems afterall.
On my laptop I can only get what my bios allows as resolution (1024x768x32) on a 1280x800 display. Only way to get true native resolution is with nouveau and KMS.
Tried uvesafb and everything in the wiki but simply can't get any high than 1024x768. Syslinux Hardware Detection Tools also only listes this has the highest possible vga mode and provides the appropriate number for it.
Let's hope that NVIDA will support KMS in the future. Not only for prettier ttys but also for wayland.
Also like to use KMSCON in the future as kernel console replacement. Anti-Aliased hardware accelerated FullHD console Hello!
kmscon-git is already in the AUR.

Enable SLI mode on K8N SLI Platinum

Hello, I got an older AMD64 3500+ CPU on a MSI K8N Platinum SLI motherboard, model 7100 (with a flip-board SLI switch), 2x512Mb DDR400 Corsair XMS512C2 memory, a Soundblaster Live! 4.1 soundcard on a PCI slot and two GeForce 7950 GT 512Mb DDR3 PCI-E cards. Power is supplied by a Corsair HX620 620W with separate power cables to each card. No signs of instability on the system whatsoever (no overclocking applied). Built-in sound card, Firewire, RAID and other integrated peripherals disabled in BIOS.
I recently got the second GFX card from a friend, and they are likely not from the same manufacturer. I have installed both cards, flipped the SLI board to "SLI mode", installed the SLI bridge that came with the motherboard, yet I can't get SLI to fire up. Both cards have exactly the same BIOS revision and exactly the same clock speed (core and memory) when checked with the ESA tools from Nvidia.
I have reinstalled the newest Nforce4 and Geforce drivers, but to no avail. Both cards are installed and enabled in Windows XP (32bit SP3), but I don't get any options for SLI in the control panel, and I don't see any performance difference in-game. I have looked in the BIOS for SLI-enable-settings but found none.
Is there anything else I can do to enable SLI mode for the system? Or are the cards simply incompatible? Reflashing with some stock BIOS on both cards, can that make them compatible? Or is maybe the SLI bridge not seated properly? What exactly ARE the requirements for two cards to match, anyway?
Further, does anyone know the real-world implications of disabled PCI prefetch, as this was disabled in the last update for the motherboard? I use a PCI soundcard, and have some performance issues in games that seems to be somewhat correlated to sounds being played.
Best regards, Martin "xarragon" Persson

which one? http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=searchresult&keywords=NX7950GT
Min seems to be the "MSI NX7950GT - VT2D512EZ - HD", latter one with VIVO support. It does have passive cooling using heatpipes, and a sticker on it says what I put in double quotes above. That would be this card:
http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=130&prod_no=1045
The sticker/model name for the ASUS card says:

I suppose it ought to be this card? http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=5XmjRmrwz3r9rWuv
I have also used GPU-Z to pull the following info from the ards, when they were connected one-by-one to the primary PCI-E 16X slot with the SLI bridge set to "non-SLI" mode.

Both cards work fine, with the MSI card being slightly hotter due to the passive cooling. The ASUS one got an aftermarket Zalman VGA cooler mounted.

How to get my macbook pro out of VGA mode

I plugged my new Macbook Pro into a VGA adapter to do a slideshow on a projector screen, and after i was finnished, my mac is still in VGA mode on the lcd screen - is a awkward view mode. Does anyone know how to revert back to a normal viewing mode? Even after restarting the macbook, it remains in the mode for being connected to a vga cord. thank you.

Safe Mode uses a simple display mode and bypasses the stored settings. It can be used to get out of situations where you set the resolution or configuration wrong.
Hold down Shift as you start up.
It will run a pass of "Repair Disk", which takes several minutes.
Then it will come up with minimal extensions loaded and default display settings.
Provide your User_id and password and log in.
Change the displays prefs to something boring.
Be certain to close the pref pane and Save changes.
Restart.

If it is turned on and your lock request is able to be fulfilled, a confirmation email will be sent to your Apple ID email address. There isn't any known way to bypass Activation Lock on your phone so no one will be able to use it. More information on Lost Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2700

How to enable "persistent mode" in Windows failover cluster manager 2012?

In Windows Server 2008 R2 there was a checkbox named "Enable persistent mode" on a General tab in the Properties of a cluster resource.
In Windows Server 2012 that seems to have disappeared.
My cluster resource is a "generic script" resource (not that it makes any difference).
How do I enable "persistent mode" for a cluster resource in Windows Server 2012?
Thanks

Hi Marcus Griley,
Enabled by default for VM groups Option is hidden from GUI in 2012, you can use the specify the preferred owner of group to realize the same function, positively not come online
on a node that is not a possible owner. If no possible owner nodes are up, then the group will still failover to a node that’s not a possible owner, but it will not come online.
Preferred Owners in a Cluster
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/clustering/archive/2008/10/14/9000092.aspx
Specify preferred owners of a group:

Set group FailOver policy:

Set group FailBack policy:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc778570(v=ws.10).aspx- This will help the resources to fail back on the preferred owner.

How to enable private mode from commandline, with an URL.
I am a software dev and I wish to have my application open links in Firefox.
Using ShellExecute(), i can do with with commandlines like:
firefox.exe http://support.mozilla.org
But I also want the option to open the link in private mode.
I am able to start firefox in private mode by doing this:
firefox.exe -private
However, if I add a link to the command line
firefox.exe -private http://support.mozilla.org
I get strange results.
If firefox is not running, it launches 2 copies of the application.
One that opens in private mode and the other opens in normal mode and goes to the URL specified.
If firefox is already running, it just opens the URL in a new tab.
No private mode instance is launched.
Am I using the command-line syntax incorrectly?

It will never work if Firefox is already running as Firefox will use the already opened Firefox instance. 
In that case only using a separate profile will work.
You can try to specify the -url switch as well.
*firefox.exe -private -url http://support.mozilla.org
You can also look at the -new-tab switch.
*firefox.exe -private -new-tab http://support.mozilla.org
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options

Steps to enable FIPS mode

I have been looking around for a good SUN documentation on enabling java in fips mode.
The below link is not satisfactory to get going and enable fips mode.
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/FIPS.html
Can anybody share detailed documentaion or steps to enable java in fips mode.
Thanks,
Edited by: Sanj_M on Feb 2, 2010 1:35 AM

1. How do I get a FIPS compliant provider.From a FIPS-compliant JCE provider vendor.
2. The doc mentions two options to configure the provider
Where will JSSE look for the configured provider.I believe it is jre/lib/ext but the vendor will tell you.
3. How to test my application for FIPS complianceWell you could try to do any of the things described in the document you derided, such as enabling SSLv3 or a non-compliant protocol, and ensure that exceptions are thrown. However it is up to the vendor to provide you with a compliance certificate - this isn't something you need to test.

Cannot read a file using Acrobat SDK in Adobe Reader 11 when Enable Protected Mode is checked

I wrote a plugin using Acrobat SDK which reads a temporary file created by another program in TEMP folder. In Adobe 10, plugin can read the temporary file and everything works. In Adobe Reader 11, plugin fails to read the temporary file when Enable Protected Mode option is checked. When I uncheck this option, everything works fine. Our customers are concerned about disabling this option. Please let me know if there is a workaround for this issue without unchecking the option. Thank you.

Thank you! That worked!

Hi vahidbakhtiary,
As the reply from Monkeyboy, you could modify registry settings on systems to achieve what you want. There are many demo code online which showed us how to modify registry settings.

These options might be dangerous. If someone who knew nothing about the program with this function and he uses this program, it might hurt his system. Since this, it would be better not to post this code in the forum to avoid someone tried the code and hurt
his system.
Thanks for your understanding.
