Audigy 2 NX Hangs system when us

Hello. Maybe someone can help with this.
No problem installing drivers, etc. Running latest nx drivers. (As @ 6 june 2006).
Initially works perfectly (passes all diagnostics etc) unitil it tries to make a sound (speaker test) then instant OS hang and required PC hard-power-off to resolve.
If I leave the NX plugged in at boot, system will hang/lock up just after login, when the system tries to play welcome sound.
If it's important I have another USB sound device - a cyberbox VOIP gateway from tiptel. Unplugging it or removing it's drivers does not help. (ditto for other hardware mentioned above).
The A2NX worked ONCE after initial drivers install, and before reboot.
I've tried checking and reinstalling drivers both via uninstall and manual uninstall (device manager).
The A2NX works fine on other systems.
Hardware:
Asus s-presso P2 (intel chipset)
P4 2.6Ghz
USB VOIP adapter (cyberbox from tiptel, appears in Device manager as 'USB Audio')
USB Creative quickcam pro. (and old one)
USB 2.0 HDD
USB Microsoft Intellimouse and Intellikeyboard. (installs a competing composite device?)
USB Built-in cardreader
Previously had a PCI Philips rhythmic edge sound card (drivers/card uninstalled - .89)
Nvidia 6200 GFX, latest release drivers
W2003 (I know, I know, not supported!)
Latest Intel INF files
Ideas?, Help? - known incompatibilities?

Thanks, though I've solved this one myself. For the sake of some future googler, let me say that the problem was a dri've reverting to PIO mode instead of Ultra DMA (see the Primary DMA in your device manager). Solved by uninstalling the Primary DMA in the aforementioned device manager.

ITunes 7.1.1.5 on Vista hangs system when downloading Podcasts

I have been running iTunes and Vista for about 10 days and as soon as I upgraded to 7.1.1.5 I experienced problems with the iTunes store. First, searches stopped working with an error indicating a network timeout and the when trying to download a podcast, the entire system hung requiring a hardware reset. Now all I need to do to hang the computer is start iTunes and as soon as it tries to restart the aborted downloads, it hangs. As I said, this happened shortly after I upgraded to the latest iTunes release. I can't find a way to go back tothe previous release of iTunes and unauthorizing my entire account from another computer seems like a difficult way to avoid the restart.

I'm having the same exact problem. I've been searching the boards, and unless I missed something, I can't seem to find a solution to this specific problem that I haven't tried already. This only seems to be a problem with TV shows (I haven't tried downloading a movie), music downloads work just fine. This is also just started a couple of weeks ago. It worked OK before then.
I have emailed support and got a credit for the TV show, but I keep running into the same issue.
I'm currently using iTunes 7.3, although this was a problem while I was using the previous version as well.

Terminla Application Hanging System When Started

I was running a number of applications, invluding Terminal, when a system crash occurred. After that, all attempts to start Terminal resulted in a hung system. The Terminla program started, but a command prompt never appeared (only the "Welcome to Darwin" message appeared in the terminal window).
After trying Preference File removal, Disk Utility, Reinstallling Terminal using Pacifist, I finally found a solution:
- boot single user
- run fsck (several times)
At this point, I was able to delete the .bash_history file from my home directory
Problem solved.

I hope this post saved someone the 3 hours I spent troubleshooting.

Can I restore my system from install discs when DVD is not working?

Can I restore my system from install discs when DVD is not working?
There is a disc jammed in the drive and when I try to do an install in Target Firewire mode using a G5 Tower I get an error saying the software cannot be installed on this machine, before I can even select the iMac's drive. I'm using the grey software install discs that came with the iMac.
Is my only option to open up the iMac and get the jammed disc out?
Thanks

Problem solved - I posted on the general Tiger Discussions as well.
I had the wrong machine started in Target Firewire mode.

Issues with Quark Xpress Hang/Freeze when focus is shifted to anything else

I've been working on this issue since the 28th of Dec.
I've been in contact with Quark. They're still examining crash log.
I thought I'd share what is on my plate in hopes others might have had, and solved similar experience.
This message will be verbose in hope of giving the uber-guru answers to questions in advance of their being asked.
First portion will contain a log of actions taken and results there of.
Second will be the typical Quark Crash log I've been getting when the application is quit.
I will mention as well that I've received a clean bill of health from TechToolPro, DiskWarrior, etceteras, as well as Passed the tests from Apple Hardware Tests.
Let me know if I can provide any additional info
Log of Actions
Installation of new Quark, up to 6.5 only.
Completed at 5:27pm
Launching Quark under New User at 5:28
Launch successful.
Created one file. Saved file, selected finder, then text editor, the quark.
Quark still operating. added text, saved, and closed document.
selected finder, then text editor, the quark.
Quark still operating.
Manually quit quark from application menu at 5:33.
Application successfully "quit" without "crashing"
Repeating the procedure above at 5:34
Launched quark via double-click of previously saved file.
added text, saved, selected finder, then text editor, the quark.
Quark still operating.
selected finder, then text editor, the quark.
Quark still operating.
quit quark from cmd-tab cmd-q method causes "unexpected crash"
Ran several similar scenarios, with this as conclusion:
Launching quark from double click of application, creation of new document, saving, and quitting in ANY fashion allows safe quit
Launching Quark, opening from save/open dialog box an existing document, then quit with or without edit, using cmd-tab cmd-q allows safe quit
Double-clicking existing document to launch Quark, then closing document after edit and save or immediately, quark Unexp. Crash occurs with Cmd-Tab Cmd-Q every time.
Double-clicking existing documents to launch Quark, then closing document after edit and save, then create new document, with save and close, quark Unexp. Crash occurs with Cmd-Tab Cmd-Q every time.
Launching of Quark 6.50 under base user
Launching Quark, opening from save/open dialog box an existing document, then quit with or without edit, using cmd-tab cmd-q allows safe quit
Double-clicking existing document to launch Quark, then closing document after edit and save or immediately, quark Unexp. Crash occurs with Cmd-Tab Cmd-Q every time.
Double-clicking existing documents to launch Quark, then closing document after edit and save, then create new document, with save and close, quark Unexp. Crash occurs with Cmd-Tab Cmd-Q every time.
Launching Quark, creating file, saving, selected finder, then text editor, the quark.
Quark hangs/freezes until force-quit
it seems there are two issues at hand.
unexpected crashes occur with cmd-tab cmd-q in either Base or New user logins when quark launch was initiated by double-click of file from finder.
and
unexplained application hangs/freezes when under base user.

Should I buy an enclosure for my HD and see if I can get it going externally? Would that be the best way to see if it is the drive and not the cable? An enclosure is cheaper than buying a new SATA cable, so I'm hoping that's where I can start.
Yes. See if the HDD will boot the MBP via a USB connection. You should probably have an external HDD for backups or a possible replacement of your boot drive.
Ciao.

How to restore HP factory defaults without system restore Dvds if Win7 is formatted?

I recently encountered a problem with pre-installed win7 in HP Pavilion Dv6 6121se laptop after replacing the old battery. The hard disk had three partitions: C, D & E. By default the windows was installed on C drive. The following operations were performed in sequence:
1-      Using Partition Wizard 7, I decided to format C drive with the idea to re-install the OS from recovery partition. I accidently changed the recovery partition from "Primary" to "Logical" during this process. Soon I learnt that the system recovery (F11) wasn’t functioning followed by this message: No bootable device - - insert boot disk and press any key
2-      I made a system repair disk from another laptop to overcome the above issue. It didn’t work, so I then decided to merge the C, D and E partitions using AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition. The status of the hard is asunder after merger:
Partition            File System Capacity Used Space Free Space Flag Status
C: SYSTEM           NTFS                   199 MB       13.8MB 185.2 Primary                  None
D: Data               NTFS 451 GB           99.8 MB 450.9 GB Primary                 None
E: Recovery NTFS                    14.45 GB      12.87GB 1.58GB Primary               System
F: HP_Tools FAT32                  103MB          15.5MB 87.5MB Primary              System
Here comes the problem:
A)      When C: SYSTEM is set as active partition, I get this message on startup
BOOTMGR is missing
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
B)       When E: Recovery is set as active partition (or tapping F11), I get this message on startup
    Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
File: \Boot\BCD
Status: 0xc0000098
Info: The windows   boot configuration data file does not contain a valid OS entry.
Please bear in mind that I didn’t make any system restore DVDs in advance which could have been used at this stage but I do have the default recovery partitions intact in hard drive as shown above. After all this, is there any way to retrieve my system to factory settings without losing recovery partition and HP tools?
Thank you all!

Try download a PE system and get in there and run an WIM tool to install windows to C
(Look for base.wim in the recovery partition and install it)

Server hangs up when tryin to read object Urgent Help Plz

Hi,
I've been working on a client-server model for a while, I've tested my applicaction a thousand of times locally (I mean, server and serveral clients running on the same machine) and it's ok, now I finally run server in a remote host and I find it rarely works fine, most of the times server hangs up when tryin to read objects I dont know why.
this is the part of the server-code where the problem begins:
public int EscucharSocket(){
        Socket cliente = null;
        System.out.println("Servidor en escucha...\n");
        while(true){
            try{
                cliente = SocketS.accept();
                //I get client's ip and port
                String ip = cliente.getInetAddress().getHostAddress();
                int puerto = cliente.getPort();
                //After the conexion is made, server reads a signature to
                //identify the client
               //in function process I check if the signature is valid
               //SignedData is a class where I wrap the signiture (obviously
               //it implements Serializable interface
               process((SignedData)le.LeerObject(cliente));
               //Other things done here
            catch (Exception e) { }
}le is a class I use to read,write data to the socket, this is the code of the LeerObject function
public Object LeerObject(Socket c) throws Exception {
       //Here Is where the server hangs up
        ObjectInputStream b = new ObjectInputStream(c.getInputStream());
        return b.readObject();
}As I wrote when running locally, there is no problem, but when I have a remote host, that happens
Any help or idea?

Hi again, thnx for your help
I modified my LE class so I just create a couple of Input/Output Streams per client (on server n client program), this is now the complete code of the class:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class LE {
    DataOutputStream     dos;
    ObjectOutputStream oos;
    DataInputStream        dis;
    ObjectInputStream     ois;
    //Streams are created just once in the constructor
    public LE (Socket s) throws Exception {
        dos = new DataOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());
         //I'm not sure if this flush has any sense
        dos.flush();
        oos = new ObjectOutputStream (s.getOutputStream());
        oos.flush();
        dis = new DataInputStream(s.getInputStream());
        ois = new ObjectInputStream (s.getInputStream());
    public void EscribirByte(byte datos[],int len) throws Exception {
        dos.write(datos,0,len);
        dos.flush();
    public void EscribirString(String dato) throws Exception {
        dos.writeUTF(dato);
        dos.flush();
    public void EscribirChar(char dato) throws Exception {
        dos.writeChar(dato);
        dos.flush();
    public void EscribirInt(int dato) throws Exception {
        dos.writeInt(dato);
        dos.flush();
    public void EscribirLong(long dato) throws Exception {
        dos.writeLong(dato);
        dos.flush();
    public void EscribirObject(Object dato) throws Exception {
        oos.writeObject(dato);
        oos.flush();
    public String LeerString() throws Exception {
        return dis.readUTF();
    public int LeerInt() throws Exception {
        return dis.readInt();
    public char LeerChar() throws Exception {
        return dis.readChar();
    public long LeerLong() throws Exception {
        return dis.readLong();
    public Object LeerObject() throws Exception {
        return ois.readObject();
}part of code of server and client, where the conexion is made and the LE object is created
Server:
try{
       cliente = SocketS.accept();
       //After accepting the conexion the LE object is created
        le = new LE(cliente);
        //I get client's ip and port
        String ip = cliente.getInetAddress().getHostAddress();
        int puerto = cliente.getPort();
        //Object wraping signature is read
        process((SignedData)le.LeerObject());
        //other control operations doing here
        //A thread is created to receive requests from client
        //(reference to LE object is passed to the thread
       ConexionCliente c = new ConexionCliente (cliente,id_persona,id_grupo,tipo_usuario,backup,le);
        //thread is started
        c.start();
catch (Exception e) {
    try {
        cliente.close();
    catch(Exception e2){}
}Cliente code:
try{
   //it connects to the server
   c=new Socket(host,puerto);
   //After accepting the conexion the LE object is created
   le = new LE(c);
   //other things made here to genarate SignedData Object
//It sends signed data object
le.EscribirObject(Data);
//A thread is created and started to receive messages from server
//reference to object LE is sent to the thread to avoid the need of

new ConexionServidorClient(c,id_persona,ci,le).start();
return 1;
catch(Exception e) {
   return -1;
}after the change, itworks a little better, but still most of the times server hangs up, I can't make server operational yet and I dont have any idea for solving this issue

How do i transfer system recovery dvd to a usb

Recently my ultrabook broken down and now the start up is in a never ending loop. I brought a system recovery media from hp, I cleary stated my ultrabook doesn't have dvd slot and he said that's fine once you get the dvd call us up and we will help you.
I received my dvd today and when I called up there suggestion was and I quote "copy and paste all the data from the dvd to a usb, don't you know how to transfer files".
I was like that won't work can you put me trough to someone that has better understanding and he goes it will cost you 30 somthing pounds.
Can someone that understands my problem help me out?
How can I transfer a system recovery dvd to create a bootable system recovery usb. I have another pc.

Do you have only 1 dvd or several? I have seen others attempt this with a multiple dvd set and fail miserably. With 1 dvd you might have a chance. Create an ISO from the dvd with something like ImgBurn or other cd/dvd burning tool that can create an ISO file from a disc.
Once you have the ISO file use Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool to create a usb Recovery. It was created for Windows7 but works on other ISO files.

Installing Wii gaming system and DVD player

How do I install my Wii gaming system and DVD player? I have an old floor model tv. Prior to Fios, I used a RF audio/video modulator. I still have old movies that my kids want to watch. Thanks! I'm not purchasing a new tv when the old one still works.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Fios should not change anything when it comes to your DVD player or Wii. If you don't have the connectors for everything I would suggest something like a RCA splitter. I take it you dont have a HDTV.

IMac won't read the System Install DVD after trying a Software Update (Whic

Last weekend I tried downloading the 10.4.7 update to my iMac. Towards the end of the download the iMac crashed out and said that the Software Update was unsuccessful. As this was the case I tried rerunning the 'Software Update' again but after a few seconds of the application running and the little window being on the screen, it just dropped out and exited. As this was therefore not working I tried to download the Software Update as a Stand Alone application. I found after downloading the file that mounting a disk image on my iMac no longer works. My next step was to try and reinstall OS X from the System Install DVD. I put the DVD in the DVD Drive and found that after it whirred for about 20 seconds, the disk ejected. I thought this was odd so I tried to boot the iMac , holding down the 'C' key once the DVD was in place inside the iMac. The Mac powered up and then the DVD whirred for a while and once again it ejected the DVD. I now have no way of reinstalling OS X..and am at a loss. I called up the supplier of the iMac as I only purchased it in May 2006. They advised me that the warranty only covers Hardware and not Software. They said with a problem like this it could be expensive to try and work out what is causing it as it is sort of an unknown. I would like to know if anyone else has had this problem, is there some way I can see what the iMac is doing when it is trying to read the DVD and the ejects it, and is there some way of 'resetting' the iMac so that it is in the initial state. I know the BIOS on these machines is a 'soft' BIOS so as the supplier said, it is quite possible that the Software Update has corrupted the soft BIOS on the machine. Any ideas?

Yes. It is possible that the DVD could be bad.
It is also possible that your corrupted installation is preventing the DVD from working right.
It would seem strange, except that this happened with another guy as well. But, once we disconnected his internal hard drive with the corrupted OS 10.4.7 install, the machine booted from the DVD and worked properly. We then connected a different hard drive to install to, and it worked fine. Then, we connected the drive as a secondary and formatted it and it resumed working.
But, with an iMac CoreDuo, you cannot open the machine to unplug the drive. So, you'll be a bit stuck if you require the same solution. He had a PowerMac G5.
But, basically, his corrupted OS 10.4.7 installation was preventing booting from a CD, booting into safe mode, booting from an external drive, or any other kind of booting.
So, for him, the only option was disconnecting the internal drive and installing on another one.
I hope this doesn't turn out to be necessary on your system as well. If so, you'll need to take it into the shop for servicing.
The only other option I could think of is to try and boot it into Target Disk mode, and format it's drive with another computer. Perhaps that would work.
Once your internal drive has been cleared (formatted), then it may boot from the DVD again (assuming your problem is the same as the other guys).
You can read about Target Disk Mode here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
You can read about the steps we took to troubleshoot and repair the other guys machine here:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2629919#2629919
Perhaps that will help explain what I described above.
I hope this helps.

HP System Recovery DVD is not working

I've downgraded my HP 15-e0001ed from W8 to W7. I removed EVERYTHING from Windows 8, including the recovery partition en I did not make a recovery disk/back up (or something else) to eventually restore my OS to W8.
During the use of W7, i noticed that the fan was blowing really loud. I checked the HP website, and i noticed that all the drivers weren't compatible with W7. I installed some of the drivers anyway, but the problem with the blowing fan seems still there now and then. I then downloaded the ISO file from this topic and this is an evalution version of W8, which can be used for 90 days. I still want to use my 'original' W8 version, so I ordered a System Recovery DVD set.
When I insert the disk I can only open the content of the disk, but there is no autorun file or something like that. I then loaded the DVD's from the system recovery mode (when you press ESC during the start up of the laptop en you have the option to go to the BIOS). When the DVD then loads, I get the following error message:
This computer is not supported bij de System Recovery Media. You will not be able to continue to recover this system with these Media.
Error: 0130-ABH-UUW.
Anyone knows what to do to get the recovery disks to work?
Thanks!

Re: fan blowing loud all the time.. check in the BIOS in system configuration to ensure that the fan always on option is not enabled.
Is the wireless led shown as being enabled? (white=enabled amber=disabled) It needs to be enabled
You should be able to boot from disk one of the set. If that is not possible when you have selected the DVD as the first item in the boot list by using the F9 key then contact HP. The disk set may be faulty.

"Missing Operating System" when trying to boot from USB

I have a macbook air (3,2), and I'm trying to install Arch onto the partition that currently has Ubuntu. I have tried a few different ways to get the Arch core iso onto the usb key drive, but no matter what I do, I am ending up with the message "Missing Operating System" when I boot into it.
I started out using the instructions from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/US … tion_Media for writing it on OSX, using diskutil unMount, then the dd with bs=8192, and of=/dev/disk2
When that didn't work, I tried booting into my ubuntu install, and used just a plain
sudo dd if=archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdb
Still no luck, so then I went to my old standby of unetbootin, which didn't do any better. I just tried yet again with the dd in ubuntu, and I'm still not having any luck.
Here's some of the relevant info I could find:
$ sudo dd if=Downloads/archlinux-2011.08.19-core-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdb
772096+0 records in
772096+0 records out
395313152 bytes (395 MB) copied, 1.55667 s, 254 MB/s
$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 8065 MB, 8065646080 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 7691 cylinders, total 15753215 sectors

Disk identifier: 0x3946b2c9
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 0 772095 386048 17 Hidden HPFS/NTFS
One interesting thing I noticed was that the dd took about 10 minutes in mac osx, and under 2 seconds in linux. That seemed like a pretty big difference between the two systems, but I'm not sure if that's related to the batch size on the write, or to the implementation of dd used in OSX.
Is there something obvious I'm missing? I know the computer is able to boot from this key drive because I was able to boot an Ubuntu livecd from it just a few days ago. Unfortunately, the MBA won't boot from my external cd/dvd drive because it's not the apple brand super-drive, and I don't want to spend the money for a super-drive, so a cd-based install isn't an option.
Really looking forward to playing with Arch, because some of my friends recommended it to me highly. I'm a former gentooer (years ago) who became fed-up with installing *everything* from source. I can't stand ubuntu doing everything for me, and debian always seemed so far behind the curve on everything, so Arch seems like the perfect OS if I can just get into the installer. :)
Thanks so much!
~Maquis

Oh, forgot to mention, I did the dd from ubuntu with both bs=4M and without a bs argument. the version without the bs argument is the one that went really fast.
Neither version would boot, so I don't think that the way I'm writing it is the problem.
I did just notice that if I just do a sudo fdisk -l without specifying the drive, I have 2 entries for my drive:

HP System Recovery DVD Won't Run

Hi. I currently use an HP Pavilion DM4, 3090se, which runs Winows 7. I went to turn on my computer last week and instead of starting normally, got the Windows Boot Manager screen stating that Windows failed to start. To fix the problem it says that I must insert the Windows installation disc and restart to repair the computer.
I did not have any Windows installation discs so I ordered the System Recovery DVD's from the HP Support Site. I've inserted the first disc and started up my computer only to get the Windows Boot Manager again upon start up. Inserting the Recovery DVD's seems to have no effect. I tried inserting the second disk and the Application and Driver Recovery DVD to see if anything different happened but that was to no avail.
I did not have any issues with my computer prior to this happening and do not know what the cause may be. I am hoping for some insight on what I can do to resolve this before I have to just send my computer in to HP.
Thank you!

Hi,
You're more than welcome
In case the problem is with the notebook reading the installation disc, here's another possible option you could try as detailed below.
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
You can create Windows 7 installation Flash Drive yourself using another PC. Download the Image file on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder - the Windows 7 image source is Digital River ). You'll need a usb flash drive that is at least 4Gb.
Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64bit.
Once downloaded, use an application such as Rufus to create a Windows 7 bootable usb flash drive.
When created, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Insert the Windows 7 flash drive. Select the Boot Options menu ( f9 ). Use the arrow keys to highlight the flash drive and hit enter.
During the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Additional drivers and software you may need for your notebook can be found Here.

Mail hangs up when opening the preferences

Hey guys,
i upgraded to mac os x lion 10.7 a few minutes ago. Now i wanted to try out the mail application. But it hangs up a few seconds after starting. Or it hangs up when i try to open the preferences window. Does anyone of you have an idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.
