HP Pavilion G6 Notebook PC - Continuous​ly turns on and off after new ram is inserted repetitive​ly

I have just installed another 4 gb of ram making it 8 gb. It works fine the first time it has started up with the new ram but when it has been turned off with the new ram installed for at least 30 minutes it just refuses the ram and just turns on and off repetitively. I have to take out the new ram and turn on the computer on to get it running again. Once it has had a full start up without the new ram I can insert the new ram again but then this problem consists.
Product number: A3D96PA#ABG
Processor name: Intel Core i5-2430M 2.40GHz
BIOS F.66 - 01/24/2013
My PC is running windows 8.1 Pro
The details of the new 4gb of ram are: Crucial 4GB DDR - 1600 SODIMM

  • My ipod keeps turning on and off after recently trying to restore

  • External HD keeps turning on and off after Leopard install

    Since I've installed Leopard, my external HD seems to keep turning on and off at random times (i.e. the disk starts spinning for a little while, then stops, then starts again) when I'm not doing anything to access the HD. Any ideas if this is an issue with Leopard or something wrong with my HD? It wasn't an issue before Leopard.

    Glad to know that I'm not the only one and that I'm not going crazy!
    At least in my situation, TM has never been turned on. It might be Spotlight, but my guess is that after being installed for several days now, that most anything needing to be indexed would have been indexed. No virus checkers installed. Also, my external HD is only for backup (not saving stuff or autosaving stuff on the external HD).
    I've noticed it a bit more when using Safari, but that may be purely a coincidence. The solution I've basically used has been to eject my HD and then re-mount it when I need to use it.
    If anyone knows of anything, please let us know!

  • SPhone keeps turning on and off after restore???

    HI,
    I recently got a refurbished iphone 3gs.  I have tried to restore the last backup from my old iphone but once the restore is complete the phono continually turns itself off and on.  Does anyone know what I have done wrong? 
    Thanks

    Hi Wottawiz,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is turning off and on unexpectedly, I recommend these troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best,
    Jeremy

  • My iPad keeps turning on and off by itself

    Hi! My iPad just keeps turning on and off by itself. I tried turning it off "ON MY OWN" and turning it back on but it keeps returning to the issue. Is there anyone that can help with my issue? I have the "iPad Mini" . There are some times where it will just stop and next thing you know, I go to a app and it returns to the issue :( . ( BY THE WAY, I did update the iPad to the  final  update , but it still continues to turn on and off by itself WITHOUT me even touching it. What should I do????

    Restore the iPad completely (this is a fresh install of the iOS not just an update).
    1) Backup your iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    2) Restore the iOS via iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

  • My ipod classic turns on and off continually I cannot reset. This happened after trying to sync with my pc.

    My ipod classic continually turns on and off. I cannot reset and have tried many times. This happened when I tried syncing with my pc. My pc runs vista.
    i Recently had my pc system hard drive wiped and restored.

    It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

  • IPad2 turns on and off continually when charging

    My iPad2 turns on and off continually when I have it plugged into an outlet charging or in my computer charging.  It won't fully charge because of this. I tried resetting and restoring and recovering the iPad but it still continually has the same symptoms.  Do you think my battery in the iPad needs to be replaced or could it be another issue? 

    Try reset iPad

  • How to use a slider to turn on and off lights

    Hi guys. i am fairly familiar with Labview now but cant seen to get my head around this problem. i have a slider which is numbered from 1 to 10. below the slider i inserted 10 LED lights. my aim sis to use the slider to turn on and off the lights. for an exmaple, when i set the slider to one, the light on the far left should go on. when i set the slider to 2, the first light should go on and the second light next to it should go on, and the pattern continues. i thought of using the number to array boolean but it didnt seem to do the trick. could you please help me out. i have attached the basic layout of how i wanted the objects to be arranged
    kind regards

    wow! simplicity at its best! thats really straight forward to understand. i think you are right about making complicated circuits. the reason why i had asked to know how to do this was because i wanted to learn how to control motor directions using a slider. so after i thought i had got the easiest way of giving out 2 different outputs using a slider, i replaced the lights with switches that changed the direction of the motor. i successfully did this for the first motor and it rotated fairly well, but wanted to control 4 in total. so i simply copied and pasted the code and re-asigned the switches to different motors. when i did this, the results did work BUT the motors went very very slow. the movement was not steady and kept skipping. i think this its due to the coding being overly complicated thefore causing a serious lag. if you could please have a look
    kind regards

  • Help, My iPod just turns on and off...my PC doesn't even get to "see" it.

    I just got the 5G 60 Gig iPod. I was charging it for the first time. And of course windows wanted to jump on in. iTunes started up and wanted to transfer music, the unit wanted it's initial setup, but iTunes switched it over to th Do Not Disconnect mode. I got the register your new iPod screens to come up, then music started automatically transfering. Then I got I must reboot my computer screen...I ignored it, figuring it had to finish getting the music transfered. Then about a 1/3 into the music tansfer, I got some kind of could not find error concening the music, then my computer stopped doing anything. I did a restart, no all my iPod does is turn on and off by itself, (from the Apple icon, to back off) and won't stop doing it. I tried resetting the unit, but then it still continues. Connecting and reconnecting the USB cable, restarting the PC etc....Help, what do I do. Frustrated is beyond what I'm feeling right now...I keep thinking what the **** I just spent, for this to be the end result!! Is this unit fried? Or will it get damaged!!! HELP

    I had exactly the same issue when connecting my new BLACK 60mb Video iPod to connect to my PC via USB 2.0.
    The iPod kept Crashing & Freezing also iTunes become unstable and very slow, it kept saying "unable to write to disk" every 5 minutes and I had to disconnect & re-connect for the same message to show again in 5 mins later, it eventually told me not to disconnect the iPod. However, after 30 mins i just did it.
    I then opened iPod updater and re-attached my ipod with USB 1.
    This seemed to take an age to recognise (5 mins +) but bear with it. Once it was connected I reinstated to factory settings, once I did this it automatically told me to update my software to 1.1.1.
    When I then opened iTunes it again took 5 mins to connect, but it then started to transfer my music, which took over 6 hours to do 22MB.
    Having said that I have had no "can not write messages"
    Today I have conencted (again taking 5 mins to connect) but it has transfered over 1000 photos in under 4 mins and updated all tunes.
    hope this helps,

  • Error 4013. my iphone 4s with ios 7 suddenly colllapsed. It appears the apple and turns on and off, always showing the apple.

    my iphone 4s with ios 7 suddenly colllapsed. It appears the apple and turns on and off, always showing the apple.
    I try to connect it to itunes but when it tries to install the software again it appears error 4013. i tried changing the usb port anda the connecting cable buit it doesnt work. what shall i do??

    Did you already check these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

  • Clicks & glitches in the automation when bypass turns on and off

    I get clicks & glitches when I automate logic plugins to turn on/off (bypass) on an audio track. The clicks & glitches happen at the point in the automation when bypass turns on and off.
    Has anyone else experienced this?
    Who can help me with this?
    Thanks so much
    ps - I use Logic Pro 8

    Certain fx plug ins unfortunately just do that when you switch them on and off while audio is passing through them. It's not technically a bug, it's just the way the audio is handled by the plug in that means it can't manage to cleanly cut in and out. When this happens, you have to use alternative methods such as the one already suggested. Depending on what you need to do there are other ways around this. If you're able to engage/disengage the plug in at moments of silence in the audio (such as in between words in a vocal track), then you could use volume automation to go in very precisely to silence the clicks when they happen. But if you're automating the effect on continuous audio, sereen's suggestion of using an aux and automating the send is a more appropriate workaround. Another technique is to just bounce an entire copy of the track with the effect on it, and then just edit it in and out (still on a separate track if you like) as needed, this way you can use fades as well to clean it up. But this is only appropriate in certain situations and might not be the right approach depending on what you're doing.

  • Soundbar/wifi automatically turning on and off

    Hi,
    I have a HP dv7t-3000 notebook. This notebook has the 'touch sensitive' bar on top of the keyboard with entertainment controls like volume/mute/play-stop-forward etcc.. and the wifi 'touch sensitive button'
    My problem is that these are being automatically turning on and off. My volume for example is automatically going up and down. My sound at this very moment is turn 'mute' on  and off like every second. My wifi is also turning on and off- the wifi 'touch sensitive button is turning red and blue repeatedly' (so on and off)
    My question is, is there a way to DISABLE this whole 'touch bar'. I never turn my wifi off so I don't need that stupid button, and I'd rather control my volume in Windows than to have this stupid thing keep changing volumes up and down and muting on and off.
    So I'd just like to keep wifi-on and then have this stupid bar be disabled! Who cares about these buttons if they're gonna behave like this.

    If you updated to iOS 7 then I believe its something with iOS 7 because you are not the only one who has that problem, try to restore your iPhone and see if the problem is solved. If not , wait for iOS 7.1 it should be fixed on that new software.
    Note:- don't forget to back up your phone before restoring or you will loose all your stuff.

  • HT1414 my iPad doesn´t work, I already restarted it, the screen keeps turning on and off, and I can´t see anything o work on it, what else should I do?

    my iPad doesn´t work, I already restarted it, the screen keeps turning on and off, and I can´t see anything or work on it, what else should I do?

    First lets assume you battery is completely or almost completely drained.
    Plug the iPad into the charger that came with it and plug that into a known good wall outlet. Leave it alone for at least an hour. Then, while it is still plugged in reset the iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the iPad starts and seems to be ok let it continue to Harte until the battery is fully charged.
    If this doesn't solve the problem I suggest having an Apple technician take a look at your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.
