Hardware Interrupts HELP please
Hello,
My problem is this: when i open my PC everything works perfect, but when i execute a "heavy" programme(like games or a full system scan etc) after a while the CPU reaches 100% and the system is responding really slow(30-45 sec after the mouse click).I have downloaded the processexplorer and clearly the problem is the Hardware Interrupts.
I had the same problem 6 months ago, i formated the HD and everything was normal again.Yesterday the Hardware Interrupts started again.I couldn`t find anything to do(i`ve searched a couple of forums) so i decided to format the disk again hopping that everything was going to fix again(at least for some months) but unfortunately today and after trying to play Command and Conquer Tiberium Wars the system crashed and (based to processexplorer) the hardware interrupts was the problem again.
Somebody help please and thanks for your time
First of all thank you very much for your very quick response.
I also thought that maybe the Video Card or the CPU temperature is increasing and causes the hardware interrupts but the CPU temperature doesn`t go higher than 37-38 degrees Celsius and the SYS temp is 1 or 2 degrees lower. For example right now i am copying some files from a DVD and the Hardware interrupts are using avg. 30% of the CPU and the CPU temp is avg. 32 degrees Celsius and the SYS temp is avg 29 degrees Celsius. The temperatures are taken from the Core Center programme from MSI.If there is any other way to see my CPU`s and system`s temperature please tell me to check it.
As for the Hard Disks I am checking now one of them and there may be a problem.I will do some tests and i will inform you as soon as i can.
Thank you very much

WiFi Setup in Large House multiple Apple Hardware Devices -Help Please!
Hello:
I have tried to solve my wifi issues over the past months, but I am stuck. I recognize that this is a little involved, so let me apologize in advance.
I do not expect someone to be willing to take the time regarding this, but if someone could at least read this and give me some general pointers, that would be great.
Highlights of current problems - we cannot consistently print documents from our printer, which is connected via an airport express (note that the airport express is wired to the internet with Cat 5e, we cannot consistently stream itunes music, we have too many separate wifi networks - we prefer one wifi network, if possible. Most recently, I have been trying to extend or join my own existing networks, and I do not understand the difference in terminology, and in any event, neither attempts worked as I kept getting error messages and the amber lights stayed on.
Goals - We would like to have seemless wifi throughout our old, larger sized house with ability to stream iTunes music from an apple computer or via Airtunes from an iPhone, and print from any computer or from any iPhone or iPod, and ability for guests to join wifi with a password and have such connection be good throughout our house. I prefer not to have to manually select different wifi networks as we move around the house with an iPhone or Macbook Pro. Also, I often get prompted for wifi passwords (depending on which of my airport expresses comes into range) and I would like to avoid putting the passwords in each time. Or one signal gets weak and my device does not know that it should switch to the wifi network with better reception. I would like to be able to walk from point A to point B and have my wifi connection work continuously behind the scenes. And I would like to be able to play music on receiver, and control same via our iPhone and iPods.
Hardware -
Basement: Verizon Fios wireless Router, Ethernet Network switch with multiple Cat 5e ethernet cables going to different locations in the house.
1st Floor: Macbook Pro connected to internet via ethernet; 1 previous generation Airport Express connected to internet via ethernet, with a printer cable going from Airport Express to a printer and an audio capable going from Airport Express to a receiver. If possible, I would like that same Airport Express to provide wireless access. I also have a non-apple wifi device that is recessed in the ceiling, I think it is by On Q/Legran and this non-Apple wifi device is connected via ethernet.
2nd Floor: Older generation iMac (purchased in around 2005) that is not connected to ethernet, 1 Airport Express (new version) connected to ethernet; 1 additional Airport Express (new version) connected to ethernet; 2nd MacBook Pro which relies on Airport Express.
3rd Floor: Apple Time Capsule connected via ethernet cable, Apple TV sitting right next to Apple Time Capsule, with HDMI cable running from Apple TV to home theater receiver.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!Hello JoJo121. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
To achieve having "one" wireless network throughout the house, we just need to configure all of your base stations for a "roaming" network. With this type of network, a laptop could literally roam from room-to-room and still be on the "same" network.
You already have one of most important parts of this type of network and that is you have an Ethernet infrastructure where you want wireless to be provided.
The FiOS router should not need any configuration changes.
Setup the 802.11b/g AirPort Express Base Station (AX), 802.11n AirPort Express Base Stations (AXn), & Time Capsule (TC) as bridges:
o AirPort Utility > Select the base station > Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection > Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode)
For each AX, AXn, & TC in the roaming network:
o Connect to the same subnet of the Ethernet network, i.e., they should all connect back to the Ethernet switch at the FiOS router.
o Provide a unique Base Station Name
o The Network Name should be identical
o If using security, use the same encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc.) and password.
o Make sure that the channel is set at least three channels apart from the next base station to prevent Wi-Fi interference. -
Hardware Help PLEASE - Mad Catz PC Con
Hello there. I own a Mad Catz PC Con (wired) as well as a Mad Catz Wireless PC Con. I can't get them to work on my computer. I also have an application called USB Overdrive that allows me to use the controller with applications that wouldn't otherwise support it (it's the same concept as GamePad Companion I think). The controllers used to work great for me when I had Tiger, but now that I've upgraded to Leopard, I just tried to use them for the first time and nothing happens. Is it possible that they were uninstalled during the upgrade process -- I can't find instructions anywhere on the internet for how to add new hardware on the Mac OS X. Is this something need to do with these controllers? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm just trying to figure out why they won't work. When I go to the USB section of System Profiler, it lists the Mad Catz controllers like it should, so I know they computer is reading them, but they aren't working for any of the applications I have set up in USB Overdrive (again, they used to work fine with Tiger). I don't know where to go next with this. Can anyone help? Thanks alot for your time and help.
First of all thank you very much for your very quick response.

Help Please Software/Hardware Mouse And Keyboard problem.
I have a Corsair Vengeance and a Razr Black widow keyboard and the problem is that when i right click it wont let me select any options, it will flicker violently only when i move the mouse and im getting strange yellow highlight boxes whenever i drag
the left mouse button(ex Volume Sliders). The keyboard will only bring up shortcuts and the start button on my keyboard will open narrater settings. Ive noticed that it only happens when my computer falls asleep and when i turn it back on the problem will
start. Ive just installed advanced system care and ive done he maintanence. Can that be the problem? Ive already uninstalled it but the problem keeps happening.Try reinstalling the driver http://www.razerzone.com/au-en/gaming-keyboards-keypads/razer-blackwidow/
Also run a "sfc /scannow" from the command prompt
Also in advanced power management setting disable the USB power saving options (think its called USB hybrid power saving)

IOS update interrupted TWICE - help please!
Guys I need help please.
My internet connection is really bad. Last night, my iOS 6 update was 8 minutes from completion and my internet cut out, and about 5 minutes ago, my internet cut out again while my download was like 400 MB through.
Every time my internet cuts out, it completely restarts the download.
Is there any way I can find the downloads and start off from where they stopped?
Any help greatly appreciated!!One option would be to manually download the *.ipsw files from another computer with a better connection and then install the IPSW from the first computer. I actually prefer this method, even in an environment like my work one where we have lots of bandwidth. It seems to be more reliable. If you have plenty of bandwidth you can download the *.ipsw files pretty quickly. At work I downloaded the 983 mb file in just over 2 minutes..so maybe try a public Internet place. Just do a search on ipsw download for iOS 6.

Hi, my iphone its in recovery mode and when i restore my iphone 5s loading show the blue screen and show note on itunes (unknown error 14) please i need your help please . thanks
In the article Resolve iOS update and restore errors this is what it says about error 14:
Check your USB connections
Related errors: 13, 14, 1600, 1601, 1602, 1603, 1604, 1611, 1643-1650, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, 4005, 4013, 4014, or “invalid response."
If the USB connection between your device and computer is interrupted, you may be unable to update or restore.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
Try a different computer.
If necessary, resolve any further issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.
If you're still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues by following the next section. -
Hi Again!
I posted this problem here before, but since I really need to access the sites that receive this error message in less than a month, I had to re-post; hopefully someone who didn't see it before will see it & have a solution for me.
Here are the details: I'm running windows 8.1 & I use Firefox 33.1.1, Pale Moon 25.1.0 or Opera 26.0 as my browsers, (I have IE installed & up-to-date, but I never use it). I followed the 10-point checklist on Adobe & everything was done, except for "uncheck Hardware Acceleration" in Flash 'Settings'; I tried to uncheck it on this site, where it's indicated, as well as in my 4 browsers when I'm doing something that uses Flash, but no matter how hard I try, I can't 'uncheck' the check mark in that tiny box! Since this error problem only affects 5 web sites, & I can watch streaming media on all other sites, I don't think it's an issue.
Here's how this problem began: I was watching a live, streaming nest-cam on 5/09/14 around 11:00AM, (yes, I DO know the exact time & date, because it happened so suddenly while I was watching this website that I'd been watching since the end of February, 2014), when my screen went black. I thought it was probably an Adobe Crash, but when the usual Crash Report window didn't show up, I just closed Firefox & reopened it, expecting to resume watching the nest-cam. When I went back to the site, I got the black screen with the "Error loading plugin: Plugin file not found" message. The chat portion on the site still works, though. I know there are other sites with this nest-cam feed, so I started trying them, but it took several tries for me to find one that didn't get the error message! I posted this problem on "Windows BBS" forum, & someone else posted that the same thing happened to them AND on the same sites! They didn't have a solution, either. I cleared my cache, rebooted my PC & even did a System Restore, but whatever happened in that brief second made using ONLY 5 sites impossible. Here are the sites that receive the error message:
http://pixcontroller.com/eagles, (but I CAN go to http://pixcontroller.com, but there isn't any streaming media)
http://cbslocal.com/eagles
http://westmorelandconservancy.org/BlueBirdwebcam-1.htm
http://wildearth.tv/cam/pittsburgh-bald-eagles, (I get the error message on ALL cams on this site)
http://aviary.org/BE-NestCam1 (I get the error message on ALL cams on this site)
Now if any videos from the 5 websites above are uploaded to YouTube, I can watch them perfectly...no error message if I watch the videos elsewhere. Luckily, I found Ustream, & they have most of the nest cams I watch, but I need to fix this issue, because it's nearing nesting time! I'm an amateur nest-watcher & it's vital that I have access to these 5 sites, so if anyone knows how to fix this, PLEASE tell me!
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
All suggestions/solutions are gratefully accepted.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Firefox 3.6 keeps crashing on opening. Can't open in safe mode, can't see crash logs. HELP please.
Firefox worked fine last night. No changes/downloads but today it keeps crashing when opening. I downloaded new 3.6 version for mac but same problem.

Try:
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
