I had some troubles with Raid 0
Hello, I'm having some troubles with my computer. Before nothing excuse me please if i'm not writting english very well its just because i'm not speak it very well.
This is my computer's configuration:
Motherboard MSI 875P Neo Series (MS-6758)
Pentium IV Hyper Threading 3GHz
2GB Ram DDR 400 Kingston
2 HDD Maxtor Diamond 9 80GB @ 7200RPM (With ventilator and dissipator each one)
DVD Rom Samsung
DVD Ram Sony
NVidia GeForce FX-5200 128MB (MSI, too)
Power Supply AOpen ATX-300GU (The Computer Housing haves 2 ventilators behind and 1 more in the front)
I'm just trying to use good components for this computer, but i have these problems:
1. When I'm working with Windows XP Professional, suddenly the PC resets itself. I was trying to disable the "Restarts Automatically" option from My PC Properties to see if it was a Windows problem or a Hardware one, but the second problem becomes more persistent and I neglect it.
2. This problem is the hardest one for me (I lost just 2 weeks trying to solve it but I cannot solve it). Sometimes, when I restart the PC, I can see that in the First Screen (The MSI's Logo) the system it's blocked and I must restart the PC from the front button or turn off (Sometimes the PC don't block this part). Then When I restart, In the Raid Bios (when you must press ctrl + i) it don't recognize the Raid 0. Sometimes send these messages:
Raid 0: Failed
Maxtor 0: Missing
Maxtor 1: Fine
Or simply:
Raid 0: Failed
Maxtor 0: Fine
Maxtor 1: Fine
If this message appears, I can enter pressing Ctrl + I and the system question me if some hard disks belongs to the Raid 0 array, I answer "YES" and the Raid is repaired. Then I restart the PC and I can work very well in Windows. But suddenly if I restart or turn off the PC the problem appears again. It don't causes information Trouble or missing files or Operating System, but it's very annoying and therefore it doesn't have to happen... This is a list of things that I was made to try to repair it but I simple and simply fail.
a) I was change the motherboard for another 875P MSI but it was equal.
b) I was change the memory too, and decrease it.
c) I upgrade the BIOS to Version 1.8 I guess
d) I disconnect the 5 extra ventilators thinking in a probably power fail, but not
e) I was change (too) the Hard Disks for 2 Seagate Barracuda (I don't have the model but it's of 80GB too)
f) I was change the motherboard for an 865 but I forget a little detail: It don't have the Raid option
g) I was change the Power Supply for another similar but.... not....
h) I was change too the SATA cables...
i) I was change too the processor and I was installing a PIV HT 2.4GHz but....
Like you can see, I was almost assembling a new pc but i continued with the troubles. The configuration in BIOS is correct, I was checking it in this page and everythings seems to be OK... Right now i'm working with this pc without a Raid 0 array and I'm working fine (for now) but it's very important for me to be working with the array. I'm not sure if I'm forgetting something in BIOS, but I'm sure that everything is OK... I would be happy if someone can help me....
This power supply is too small.
Acer shows the +12 rail as having a normal current of 4.3A and a max of 13A. Your CPU will draw around 10A, plus your drives and fans draw from this rail as well.
This site indicates your power supply should be around 500W.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was. I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist That will take you right to that file.
(.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.

Hi! I have some troubles with my iphone 4...
Hi! I have some troubles with my iphone 4 since a few months. Sometimes, suddenly, it pretends to discharge very fast, but when it comes to 1% I can still use it for hours. Also, when I recharge it, nothing would change at the 1%-note but the battery seems to be fully charged. The first and second time this happened, I made the mistake to turn the phone off because I thought a restart would solve the problem. But it made it worse: The Iphone wouldn't turn on again. I tried all the tricks with home + power button and also tried to connect it to itunes on my macbook, but nothing happend. When I connect the charger it shows me that the battery is empty (which isn't the case - I also tried different wires). After a few hours a little miracle occured and the **** thing turned on all by itself and pretended as if nothing happened.
The third time this happend I didn't turn the phone off and just used it normally. I took care that the battery is always full and after a few days it was normal again.
Now it happened again but I had no wire with me at work and the battery ran low and the phone turned off. Now I'm trying to "reanimate" it for 2 days now...nothing. The last times it took 3hours to 12 hours until it would awake but now...
Does anyone know this problem and knows how to solve it? As I said, I already tried the "press the home button and powerbutton and both and whatever" tricks for a few times but it doesn't change anything....
Cheers,
DianaBuzz! Thank you for playing!
You're out of luck. At least here. Discussing jailbroken devices is forbidden by the terms of service.
It's likely the jailbreak has permanently hosed it. -
I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?

Pavillion G6. Shrunk C Drive, and formatted the other as I drive. Had some problems with my printe
I shrank C drive. that left me with another drive, which I formatted as drive I. The recovery drive is D, as it was when I received the computer. I had some problems with my printer (Epson) through a Dlink DIR655B1, and wanted to return the computer to factory condition.
When I try to use the recovery through Windows, it says factory reset is disabled?? When I try to shut down, reboot, and use the bios restore, it just comes up with an error message, says to use the dvd that came with the computer, which it didn't?
Any way I can put this all back to normal?
Thanks

You damaged the partition structure when you shrank C, see this guide to properly add a 5th partition after you get it restored using HP recovery media.

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.
I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet. -

In fact this happens on some computers. the graph XY causes some trouble when zooming. Sometimes, when I run my main program and open the window with the graph, it has change the displayed it overflows to the edge of the windows. Or somtimes it works but if I zoom the curves disappeared, or is corrupted.
I have this for instance on a computer with win 98 and a ATI graphic board. So I try to update all drivers but noting has changed. I try to decrease the hardware acceleration, and it seems to happen less oftenly.
Does anybody have seen that kind of trouble ?> I have some trouble With the graph XY, if I display a curve and try to

I think what you are describing is not due to video driver, but rather
to the way the graph works. The LV graph maps points to integer screen
coordinates and draws lines be tween those point. When the numbers are
way to large to fit on the screen, the numbers are pinned to a special
large value. When this happenson one axis but not the other, it causes
the slope of the line to change and potentially not cross the screen.
If this is the same effect I'm describing, it only takes place when you
zoom into the data by a large extent, pushing the other points about ten
to fifteen monitors away. At this point you are no longer
looking at
measured data, but rather just on the interpolation of a line between
two points. The solution if you must have one is to resample your data
on the diagram to contain more points.

You can't. It still thinks that your iPhone is synced with another iTunes library (the one that you had before you reformatted the hard drive.

How can I get a full history of our purchases? We had some problems with some downloads since 5/25/12.We were charged for items that said "Free"? Help
iTunes Store menu > View My Account...
Sign in and select "See All" in Purchase History.
You can only see them in "batches" of ten. As far as I know there is no way to obtain a comprehensive summary.
The prices are tabulated in that list. If they were supposed to be free, and they show that you were charged, then click the arrow next to the suspect purchases and click "report a problem". -
