First time Solaris Install -3 problems

Hi All:
This is my first ever post/
I just installed Solaris 10 for the first time( well,I tried once before but ran into problems,so I gave up and installed Linux.This time I'm letteing it stay)
I installed it on an old PC :
AMD Duron 750 (awaiting a 1 Ghz Athlon cpu from Ebay)
256 mb ram
40 GB IDE hdd
I once I tried to install it on an old dual -p3 1Ghz rack mount server I got from ebay and not only wouldn't it install,but after that Lan A didn't work anymore....so I am reluctant to try installing it on my 2 AMD 64 pcs for fear of what might happen!
Anyway,here's my problems:
1) No network - Solaris didn't detect and set up my Realek 8139 ethernet card
2)No sound -AC97 sound chip
3) Stuck in 640x480! (Luckily I have a 17" monitor!)
Any help apreciated!tnx

Nihil, Welcome to the discussion area!
First off, I'd like to connect it to my existing wireless network, but I have no clue how to accomplish that. It would be nice just to plop in an Airport card, but I don't know if that will do the trick.
That iMac has an internal slot for original AirPort card. You will also need the AirPort card adapter.
Secondly, when I insert a DVD it doesn't automatically play and I can't find any DVD software on the computer. I thought they came with a generic DVD player, but I just can't find it.
If that iMac has a DVD drive installed, the application "DVD Player" is installed when the OS is installed. You can see if it has a DVD drive by running System Profiler.

    Hey NicolasZen,
    Thanks for the question and welcome to the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you are experiencing issues with “No Service” or “Searching” on your iPhone. The following resource provides some great troubleshooting steps that you may wish to try:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting No Service
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4429
    Your iPhone may have one of these symptoms:
    - iPhone displays "No Service" or "Searching" in an area of good coverage
    - iPhone doesn't regain service when returning to an area of coverage
    Resolution
    If you encounter either of the above symptoms on your iPhone, follow these steps to attempt to resolve the issue. Test after each step.
    1. Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    2. Turn iPhone off and then on again.
    3. Remove the SIM card and verify that it's a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it isn't damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
    4. Check for a carrier-settings update. Connect to a Wi-Fi network. Then tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, iOS will ask you if you want to install it. If Wi-Fi isn't available, connect your device to iTunes.
    5. Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.

    You may try to restart the Creative Cloud application by quitting and relaunching it.
    And you may try to run the Cleaner Tool, then try to install again.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

    We're sorry.

  • TS1702 I had this Scrabble on my iPad2 and began to have connection problems, it would lock in the "connecting" position. This is not the first time Scrabble has had problems with interface. Typically customers delete the Ap then download it again to rein

    I have contacted EA about this and can find no help. I had this Scrabble on my iPad2 and began to have connection problems, it would lock in the "connecting" position. This is not the first time Scrabble has had problems with interface. Typically customers delete the Ap then download it again to reinstall it. During the process you sign in and approve the purchase KNOWING that another window will open saying that you have previously purchased it and that there is no charge. So what happened this time? It will not connect and all of my saved and current games are wiped out. I want my money back, this game interface is pretty junk and operates like some ancient DOS program,,bug,bug,buggy. I want my money back.

    Go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

    Hello,
    SAPKIPYJ63 is PI_BASIS 2005_1_640: patch 0003.
    Apparently you have included this support package in the upgrade. But have you installed or upgrade the component PI_BASIS to 2005_1_640 during the IS_SELECT phase? This is required for support package SAPKIPYJ63.

  • Solaris install/ boot problems please help

    recently had to use solaris at work and liked it. So thought of getting it solaris 10 on intel box at home to learn it. I have never worked on a unix based OS before. When I installed the OS first time, the desktop would not start up, this was because of network setup. Reinstalled worked. After a week due to some problem i had to reinstall OS, installation went fine and but when i reboot i get this errror.
    cannot find mis/krtld
    boot error loading interpreter(misc/krtld)
    elf32 read error
    load error read of "platform/i86pc/kernel/unix failed.
    boot path /pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide0/cmdk@0,0:a
    i have been trying to reinstall with many option like formatting with windows fdisk, linux installer everything as I saw somehwre that disk needs low level format.

    Any help will be highly apreciated, as I have been trying out everything I could find, also I really want to learn to use solaris

    Looks like a boot disk problem.Try doing a lowlevel format with the respective tools.(Ex.If seagate harddisk download seatools) No try to install the OS.If you are facing the same problem try installing windows and see.The error looks like a bad blocks in the disk.

  • I am trying to run my registered CS6 Design Standard programs for the first time after install. InDesign runs OK, but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trail mode. How do I activate those two?

    I can't get my registered versions of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator to run in full mode. I installed CS6 Design Standard online end of June (an upgrade from CS5.5), on my old MacBook Pro. I didn't run the programs then as I was waiting on arrival of new MacBook Pro. I migrated the programs from my old MacBook to the new, and today tried to run those programs for the first time. InDesign work OK (after an initial hiccup) but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trial mode, and won't let me save files. My CS6 Design Standard shows with it's registration in my Adobe Account. All seems in order, but Illustrator and Photoshop won't run in registered mode. Can you please help?

    Demons1 in the future please only migrate your documents and settings.
    Please use the uninstallers to remove your current installation.  They are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once the uninstall is complete you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  You can find more details at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
    If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files for Creative Suite 6 you can do so at Download CS6 products.

  • First time ever with this problem, importing an mp3 album...

    Greetings
    I encountered a problem last night, and it's the first time ever that I see this happening.
    I bought Sigur Ros' latest album from their website, as 320kbps mp3s, but for some reason, iTunes completely refuses to import or play it. No error messages, nothing happens at all.
    WMP still plays it fine. I tried stripping all the ID tag info, renaming the tracks, to no avail.
    I did email them telling of my problem but got no answer yet, so I thought I'd ask here in case someone has ever had the same issue...
    I have more than 1050 albums, all either downloaded from sources like iTunes and eMusic or ripped from my own CDs... Never had this particular problem before!
    Thanks

    Hello!
    I ran into this problem as well and it's driving me crazy. Glad to hear the you've contacted them and they're aware.
    Here's how I solved it. It's totally lame tho... They have to fix the files!
    - Load each file in Quicktime Pro.
    - Save as a flat movie.
    - Import the saved movie in iTunes.
    As I said, totally lame but it worked and the saved movie even kept the tags intact (so I didn't have to re-enter all these funky track names).
    The weird thing is that iTunes doesn't appear to be confused about this not being a movie file. Maybe it's because the movie is flat (its resolution is 0 x 0) so it just treats it like it would any MP3.
    Anyhow, very frustrating to do the right thing and buy straight from the artist only to not have it load in my music library! As soon as those files are fixed, I plan on re-downloading.
    Cheers!

  • My mac is freezing on start up.  its brand new just opened for the first time.  installed the updates and it froze.  can anyone help?

    My new mac is freezing on start up.  after the initial start up, i did software updates and now its frozen.  can anyone help?

    If this is really a NEW Macbook Pro and this happened the first time you turned it on and did Software Updated then you need to take it back to where you bought it and RETURN IT FOR A FULL REFUND. Then decide whether to buy another NEW unit or move on to something else.
    Apple has a No Questions Asked 14 day return policy. Take advantage of that and return this unit. This type of thing should NOT happen on a Brand new notebook.

  • First time SSD install in T61p - system hangs or is very slow

    After I decided to finally leave XP behind and move onto Windows 7 I also decided unadvisedly perhaps to buy my first solid state drive, a 120GB Intel 520 for no other reason than it suit my budget.
    Well installed Windows 7 and it seems as if the system locks up everything I touch or click something. Extracting a large archive from my NAS tp my desktop, drivers for example, take forever
    Why?
    I thought upgrading to a solid state drive was plug and play..
    Is there something which has to be done prior to installing Windows 7, after, any drivers? What?
    PS I have the latest official BIOS but see there is some unofficial BIOS which allows SATA II but I think my problem has nothing to do with this.
    If this unofficial BIOS does have something to do with my problem or even if it doesn't, if you know it, what is the Control Fn Swap option?

    I returned the disk and whilst they haven't yet, the store has since agreed to refund my money on the Intel 520 series 120GB. Whilst I didn't want to get stuck with it either, I would have like to have made it worked. I thought I had  found a solution here Fixing an SSD Freezing on Windows 7
    Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) is the culprit, specifically LPM (Link Power Management) and DIPM (Device Initiated Power Management). Both are recommended to be enabled as they lower power consumption on SATA devices that support it, but in certain circumstances they may cause freezing, stuttering and other undesirable performance degradation.
    Although the SDD is still at the store and they have agreed to a refund, I ran the registry file to turn off LPM and DIPM. All that did was seem to cause the very problems with my regular HDD as the registry are meant to prevent.
    So now I am really reluctant to put a refund at risk by asking to have another go at it, but after this experience, I don't either know which SDD to try next with my T61p
    Can you or anyone make any sure fire recommendations?

  • First Time iMac User w/ Problems

    Alrighty, first off, I'm a long time (and diehard) PC user. I haven't touched a Mac since highschool and even then they confused the heck out of me. I'm quiet competent with a PC but I can't do anything with a Mac.
    Anyways, my sister bought a used G3 iMac and I have a few questions about it.
    First off, I'd like to connect it to my existing wireless network, but I have no clue how to accomplish that. It would be nice just to plop in an Airport card, but I don't know if that will do the trick.
    Secondly, when I insert a DVD it doesn't automatically play and I can't find any DVD software on the computer. I thought they came with a generic DVD player, but I just can't find it.
    The details of the computer:
    OS X 10.3.9
    450 MHz
    128 MB RAM
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
