I'm having bad luck with motherboards from Newegg.

Hi all,
I have successfully built several systems from the ground up with motherboards from Microcenter. However, I'm having no luck with the 2 motherboards i got from Newegg.
The first one, ASUS P6T, would not reboot unless the reset button was pressed a few times. Then i ordered the GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD5 X58. I had high hopes but it too came out of the box with a problem. It start/stops/starts/stops.... I discovered that if i remove the 8pin power connecter, the mb starts but still will not post. I removed and replaced all components including the PSU and still no joy.

The original PSU i got two weeks ago for the new system is a PC Power & Cooling (PP&C )910 watt unit. I think thats plenty of power. The PSU tester diaplays the following:
+5V = 5.3
-12V = 12.2
+12V1 = 12.3
+12V2 = 12.3
+3.3V = 3.4
5VSB = 5.3
P.G. = 300ms
I plugged the PP&C 910w PSU as well as a completely different 400w PSU into the GA-EX58-UD5 with the following components removed - no drives, cards or case fans and all drive/audio/usb connectors disconnected - just the i7 920 CPU and ram - the mb acted in the same manner. Actually, its the PSU that's reacting to the motherboard i think. I can hear both PSU's "click" like its tripping a breaker then resetting - hence the mb starting and stopping.
Anyway, after i removed some and then all of the ram, the system started without stopping but still no post. I have also been getting a debug error code of 62. From what i understand, the error code indicates that the motherboard is not recognizing the ram.
It would appear that your both wrong in this case.
I searched the internet and found some posts where either the bios has to updated to accept ram i have or the ram has to be replaced with something the GA-EX58-UD5 likes. In one post, the current ram, Crucial DDR3 1066 (thats what i got), was replaced with Corsair XMS3 1333 ram and the system booted up.
I'll keep you updated.

Having bad luck with new PSUs again

Hi,
I just recently bought an Antec 430w truepower PSU to replace my old Qtec "550W" psu since the Antec 430 w has greater max currents as I am going to upgrade my video card and add an extra HDD.
When I try to run CPU-intensive programs, my system eventually halts with the Antec power supply installed, with the Qtec, everything ran fine. This is running a program I made that utilises the video card (open GL application) whilst running winamp.
My system is:
MSI K7N2 Motherboard
Ahtlon AMD 2600+ 333 FSB
512 MB DDR 3200 (400 Mhz)
1 HDD
2 CD/CDRW drives
also:
Geforce 3 ti 200
Soundblaster Live soundcard
onboard network
floppy
Antec truepower 430W or Qtec "550W" dual fan gold.
I took results using MSI PC Alert before hand from the Qtec power supply and when I got the Antec I took similar results. The results are for the CPU vCore, 3.3v, +5v & +12v rails.
===============================
Qtec:
Code: [Select]
QTEC 550 vcore 3.3 +5 +12
idle 1.63+/-0.02 3.37+/-0.04 5.12+/-0.01 12.03 +/- 0.03
active 1.62 to 1.65 3.33 5.13 12.00
Qtec proved stronger than Antec...
===============================
ANTEC 430 TruePower (case open)
Code: [Select]
ANTEC 430 TP vcore 3.3 +5 +12
idle 1.67+/-0.03 3.29+/-0.03 4.97+/-0.01 11.94 +/- 0.0
active ----------------- SYSTEM HALT -----------------------
===============================
MAX AMPS
Code: [Select]
Q-Tec 550W Antec 430W TP
3.3 20 28
+5 35 36
+12 14 20
This can prove that either my Antec powersupply I received is not doing the business (430 W) and is not as good as Qtec "550 W", Why? I don't know if I should take it back and get a replacement since it boots up my machine fine, just the rails are very weak for the Antec which is supposed to prove stronger than the QTec.
What should I do if I want to add new peripherals to the system? Going back to the old Qtec 550 will work for me :P

alright 12v pin in, didnt do any good, probably made it worse.. my screen jittered upon startup which was the sign of the power going bad (which was happening before the system halt before). Replaced it back with my beloved old Qtec everything working fine and back to normal.
I may note that while taking both results the 12v pin was not used.
The antec would not give enough power somewhere resulting in a halt, probably to the video card or something. I'll stick with my Q-tec for now and install this video card and see what happens, I've removed one CD drive (which wasnt working anyway) lets hope that can compensate for the extra current needed?
The new video card is the MSI 59000xt Vtd-128 Btw

Having bad luck with external drives

I installed Sonnett drives about 4 months ago ( 4TB ) Two drives have already gone bad. Sonnett has been good and shipped new ones but I wonder if I can keep things simple and go back to internal ATA
drives. I can install 3 1TB drives in my mac pro and that will give me enough space. ( and I won't miss the fan noise in my very small suite ) My question. I shoot in XDCAM HD, capture in ProRes. Will these internal drives be fast enough? Any thoughts? Thanks for any and all input.
Best,
Tom

GO HERE and download the AJA Data Rate Calculator Application Version 6.0.1.
It's a tiny little app that helps you benchmark drive throughput.
With an eight drive system (in RAID 0) I'd hope you'd be generating over 400 MB/s
A single internal isn't going to get that. If you were to connect the three as a RAID 0, you should get north of 200MB/s.
Whether this will work for you or not all depends on how many streams you need to pull through the system. The number of streams includes renders, effects, and so on.

Anyone having good luck with a G5 Dual 2.5 PPC?

I've been a Mac user for quite a long time going back to my SE30 and I can say that only one time before have I ever had this much trouble; (The first version of OSX).
I have performed every version of the install and the end result is always the same. I'm having severe issues with the Finder crashing and restarting itself. None of the Apple apps work without constantly crashing and me restarting them several times. FYI, I did download the combo 10.5.2 update and apply it myself and I have repaired permissions all along the way. I've even installed each update one at a time just to see if my issues were related to any particular update and it wasn't. I have since gone back to Tiger and my machine runs GREAT! I would really like to upgrade to Leopard without having to purchase a new computer.

Apparently you didn't read my FAQ. RAM can go bad ANYTIME.
RAM errors can not be detected even given the age of the universe in testing time.
If they happen, then you know it is bad. It only takes one sequence of bad registers which you can't test for given the age of the universe to trip up RAM.
And it doesn't necessarily happen on every machine.
I'm really starting to believe that there is an issue with the Dual 2.5 G5/PPC and Leopard that hasn't been addressed yet.
If there were such issues, they would have appeared in testing the computer itself. Apple said all G5s and all G4s of 867 Mhz or faster are supported.
Issues that they can't address are third party issues, as those would also take longer than the age of the universe to test every combination of possible factors.
The fact you had this on an erase and install suggests something is wrong with the hardware of your machine that was undetectable under normal tests.
Only replacing the hardware of the machine (the RAM being the easiest to do since all of it is under lifetime warranty from most manufacturers, and you can get identical spec from numerous manufacturers) will you eliminate the potential problems you are seeing. And those problems you have witnessed are identical to those seen by people who have had issues with RAM.

Having some problems with apps froms the app store

Hello. Since I got my iTouch I've been having some problems with some apps. Some work perfectly fine, but some others are just crashing after a few seconds. I've tried everything I found, but it seems like my problem is different from the one related by lots of others iPod users. Here's a video a friend of mine who's having the same problems I am did showing it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI-gBhP_cgU
It's really annoying us. Does anyone know how to fix it? Does it look like a firmware problem? Thanks in advance.

Have youy tried:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
- Restoring the iPod from backup
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

IPad mini. Having trouble facetimeing with Canada from UAE, is there a reason?

Having problems connecting with FaceTime living in UAE trying to FaceTime with Canada, is there a reason?

Very bad luck with the second I phone 5 in this month :(

Take it for service under your "international warranty"; whatever that is. If you got it from a non-authorized source (the "market") in Dubai then I wish you good luck getting service.

Just Not Having Any Luck With E-Mail Address, ect.

Kuduo,
First off thank you so much for just doing this!!! I have been dealing with the company, and it's a nightmare!
I am still getting nowhere as far a establishing a e-mail address for the e- what ever it's called on my printer.
I have a new hp photosmart all in one D 110 A, and I finally did get it to work without using a usb cable, even
if the print out tells me that I should change it as I caould have others use, see my things. I do use my wire-
less computer(laptop) to obtain a connection, and get a very good one from some new neighbor. I do not
want to chage it, and the report at one point even said it was "critical"
I have printed out several time the things it tells you to, but have yet to see any e-mail address???!!! So just
what is the scoope on this anyway?
I do know that it took me forever , and also alone to even figure out how to use my printer without the usb cord,
and for now she is working fine.
The one problem is that it does start to print off the wall, and also I hace change the settings 10 times from
color to black, but it only goes back to prihting COLOR!!!!!
Thanks For Your Help In Advance
Debbie

Enable Web Services from the front of the printer.
What operating system are you using and I can give you a hint about the color/black thing.

Having no luck with a WRT600N

I am trying to set up a secure wireless network using this router. I just got off the phone from a useless experience with telephone support that has me ready to box this thing up and ship it back to Amazon. My problems are simple. The first is that none of the laptops or TiVos is showing the new wireless network name as a connection option. The second is that when they did (prior to my talking to a CSR who made me ruin all of my settings), my secure network password didn't work. Any help you could offer would be appreciated.
(Mod note: Edited for guideline compliance. Thank you for your understanding.)

did you run the Linksys easylink advisor to setup your router? if not, press the reset button in the back of your router (hold it down until lights flash of then back on and let go) the install LELA on one of your computers preferably connected directly into the router, and you should then be good to go.

HT1014 Not having much luck with this iMac!

can not import my photos from pc(via migration) and have given up on that, now found my camcorder is not compatable with iMovie, does anyone know of another movie type app that might work for an incompatible camcorder ? Camcorder is sonydcr hc14e. Grrrr, thought it would be plain sailing with i-mac!

This camera works on Macs. It is a standard definition DV tape camera. However, you need a Firewire port. Not all Macs have a Firewire port, but most iMacs do. Some of the laptops do not.
Check to see if you have a Firewire port on your Mac. You can click /About This Mac/More Info/System Report to tell for sure.
If you have a Firewire 400 port, you need a 4 pin to 6 pin Firewire cable.
If you have a Firewire 800 port, you need a 4 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable.
Your Sony camera will have an IEEE 1394 port. This is what Sony calls Firewire and this is where you use the 4 pin end of the cable.
Firewire cables are available inexpensively here.

Some recents Macs only have a Thunderbolt port. There are Thunderbolt to Firewire adaptors available, but I have not tried them.
To import from this camera, attach it via Firewire Cable. Set the mode to Playback. Camera must be plugged in to AC power (not batteries only.) Use FILE/IMPORT FROM CAMERA.

Am I having bad luck?

On 12/10/13 I placed an order for T540p laptop. It arrived on 12/16/13, and the next day I found out that laptop would not go into “sleep mode” when the lid was closed. After I spent over two hours with tech support they suggested I send the new laptop to be fixed – I called the CS and requested the refund.
On 12/17/13 I placed another order for T540p laptop.
On 12/19/13 I called Customer Service. I asked if I could upgrade the order to Windows7 Pro. “Nett” told me that the current order will need to be cancelled, and another new order will have to be placed for identical laptop but with Windows7 Pro instead of Windows8.
“Nett” created new order, and promised me shipping on or before 12/27/13. He told me he cancelled the previous order I placed the day before, and that I should receive the confirmation e-mail shortly. I never received confirmation of cancellation.
On Dec. 20 I spoke to someone else from CS - she said I had TWO orders placed, promised that order w/ Windows8 will be-re-routed back to warehouse after it ships.
The laptop w/ Windows8 arrived today to my house instead of Lenovo warehouse.
Laptop with windows7 did not even ship yet…
THE SHIPPING DATE NOW IS 01/06/14 – WHAT THE IS HAPPENING?
I think I am going to return both Thinkpads and get something else from HP instead…

It is incredibly easy for debris to get stuck in the headphone jack so check there is nothing stopping the headphones from being able to be pushed all the way in. A quick clean out with a cotton bud and some solvent may help if it is dirt.

Anyone else having any luck with Sony raw files and the Raw 3.8 Compatibility fix?

Tried importing my raw photos from my Sony Nex-5N. Supposed to work with the Nex-C3 which should be the same. Have to use Lightroom instead of Aperture - would prefer Aperture.

I'm not sure as you have some extra letters on the cameras you cite, but Aperture 3 should support the Sony Alpha NEX-5, not sure about the 5N.
When you do import, what happens? When you plug in your camera (how are you importing) and hit the import button, what happens next?
More information the better for us to try and help troubleshoot the issue.

Please help.. having to do with transferring from yamipod to itunes!

hello... i have my library set up on my YamiPod program. but the problem is.... how do i get it into iTunes? I already have everything selected... what next?
by the way, i have already looked at the YamiPod docs... no help there!!!!!!
thank you

Firstly Yamipod and iTunes are not very compatible, Yamipod will probably not detect your iPod if iTunes is running in the background. You will have to overcome this through Task Manager before beginning. If you are not comfortable with doing this don't.
To answer your question, if the songs you refer to are on your iPod you will need to CTRL A in Yamipods main window with the iPod connected to select all tracks, then right click and select "Copy To". Next a dialogue will open asking where you want to copy the tracks to (e.g. My Music) make your choice and click copy. Its best to create a new folder for this purpose as if you use an existing folder you may get duplicate tracks.
Once all the files have transferred restart iTunes and click "File" then "Add Folder To Library" and select the folder to which you copied the songs. iTunes will now add the folders to its library on the PC.
Hope this helps
