IBM w/ 2200BG crashes on bootup

I have several new IBM Thinkpads that have the 2200BG wireless cards in them. When you boot them in an area that has wifi coverage they blue screen. Of course they are blaming the network. Anyone ever seen this before?

Hi - Yes, presuming you are using AireSpace controllers.
There are some known bugs with the AireSpace firmware...
CSCsc82863Hewlett-Packard (HP) laptops with Intel 2200 b/g or 2915 a/b/g clients may
bluescreen and reboot after associating to a Cisco 1130 or 1230 access point that is running LWAPP
with PEAP encryption. This problem occurs most often during logon, but it may also occur during
logoff.
CSCsd22087Intel 2200 b/g clients cannot pass traffic with an AP1000 in 802.11g mode. This
condition remains for 5 to 60 seconds and then recovers, but it can occur quite frequently.
Upgrading to the latest FW (3.2.116.21) fixes these two, but prior to it's release Cisco were denying that the second one exists... So maybe there's more to come?

IBM Thinkpad T41 crashing

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me fix my thinkpad. I have ran every test you can think of and download all drivers.
It wants to crash with a blue screen then I have to shut down to restart it. Any help would be great.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

does the laptop came with the restore partition? you can access it through the IBM button on the keyboard if it is there, and choose to restore factory condition, provided that you don't have any thing you want to backup.
Alternatively, go into safe mode and restore it to an earlier backup from system restore in accessories under program list.

IMac G5 crashes during bootup (except safe mode)

Greetings! I shutdown my iMac G5 for the first time in about a month on Sunday. I started it up last night for the first time since then and I immediately noticed that I didn't get a startup chime - very odd. After displaying the gray screen for about 7 seconds I got the dark gray screen of text with the white text in the middle about holding down the power button for 6 seconds. I tried this a couple of times and got the same results, no startup chime and crashes very early in the boot process.
This morning I popped off the back and started it again with the button on the logic board (does this reset the SMU?) Same results. So I tried resetting the PRAM as everyone here recommends and this time I got the startup chime, it got a little farther in the boot process (spinning wheel this time) before I got the same dark gray screen of death. About ready to give up, I tried it in safe boot mode and it booted all the way up. I did it again in safe mode to make sure and it worked again. Finally I tried again without safe mode and it bombed again (at least with the startup chime).
So any ideas on what the culprit could be? I don't think I've installed any new software in the past month, and even if I did I thought it was crashing so early in the boot process that it couldn't have been user related. Could something else hardware-related be causing the problem? Any, any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Here is the Apple web page on what safe boot does. Maybe you could look around in the folders given and see if you can spot the bad file.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107392
Do not know how Mac OS determines what is an apple extension in the folder /System/Library/Extensions, but if you do an info command on the file, you will see what files are copyrighted by apple. Click on the file then do command-i.
It will not be easy to spot the bad file. What they did in the classic days was to create a second folder call extensions (disabled) and drag files between the two folders until they found the bad file. I'd look for files with a new date on the file but the files do not have to have a new date because they could have been copied with an old date. Moving files could leave you system not able to boot. You best know how to do this from the command line if you get into single user mode. You might want to verify that you can start up in single user mode before trying to copy files. Press command-s when powering on.
I'd make a backup of any folder you change. This way you could rename the folders to get back to your original folder. Single user mode commands:
mv
cd
mkdir
man mv
man cd
man mkdir
Perhaps you could boot up form the install cd and move the files around. Any change of target mode?
Proceed with caution!

Indesign cs5 crashing on bootup - Macbook Pro

Hi guys,
My version of Indesign CS5 on my macbook pro will no longer boot, it crashes every time and spews out the following error:
Here is the error I get - http://pastebin.com/GNbv9XRx
I've tried a few fixed based on others problems, such as removing fonts etc but no joy!
If anyone can offer up a solution to fix this it would be greatly appreciated....hey I might even buy you a beer!
Tom

Looking at the crash report I think you have a problem with Extensis font management, and I see you need to update ID to 7.0.4.
If there was a file open when the program crashed, ti may continue to crash on launch if the recovery data is damaged. Find and empty the InDesign Recovery folder in your user library.
I't a hidden folder, so if you don't know how to find it, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion

Firefox crashes upon bootup

Crash ID: bp-0b55d86e-8a82-473d-a53c-5d6d12150304
Can't start, even in safe mode. A window shows up and it keeps going to the Mozilla Crash Reporter.
Performed all the steps in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-keeps-crashing-startup, including removing program and all Firefox %apdata% folders.

The crash report flagged these programs;
igd10umd32.dll = Intel(R) Graphics Technology
IPSEng32.dll = Symantec Intrusion Detection
IPSLdr32.dll = Symantec Intrusion Detection
Check for updates to the graphics.
Run the Symantec updater. Also, open the options of your protection
programs, and tell them to leave the browsers alone.
Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
* Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
* Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see

Each time I connect to my IBM computer it crashes with blue screen error message pops up. Apple say that it's my printer/camera drivers. The problem is with iTunes, it likes to play with all the ports on my comp and conflicts with prnt drivers. How to fix

Does anyone know how to fix this problem without disabling my printer. It's very frustrating. It's either I have my iPad or my printer. iTunes likes to play with the ports on my computer thereby causing a conflict with my printer drivers. Apple should fix this problem, I'm so annoyed.

When this problem first happened, I searched for threads and found a few. See be;ow links:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
Apple say that its a driver problem, but I've never had this problem before so I am not convinced. Another thread, which I can't seem to find, suggests that it is an apple problem - itunes plays with the ports on the company causing conflicts with existing drivers. I isolated the conflict to my new Samsung printer. I uninstalled the Samsung printer driver and then can successfully connect my ipad without the blue screen appearing.
It's not a windows problem. Windows is working fine. Only happens when Ipad is connected. Actually, this first happened after I installed the new version of itunes. I reget installing the new itunes version, but don't know how to reinstall the previous itunes version.

Weird crash on bootup "kextcache quit unexpectedly"

So I'm seeing something rather odd here on my 17" MBP. Every time I reboot, once it's finished booting it pops up a notification that "kextcache quit unexpectedly" with the OK and Report buttons available. I've reported it, but I'm trying to figure out if anyone knows of any way of fixing this. It's not affecting the system stability at all. I can continue working just fine, I'd just like to be rid of the error message every time I reboot.
I haven't been doing anything unusual, and I don't recall installing anything that immediately preceded this error message coming up.

David
I'm trying to figure out if anyone knows of any way of fixing this
Since you have an Intel machine, I presume you are running 10.4.x? You won't find many people in this forum able to help much. I suggest you try posting in the Using Mac OS X Tiger forum. someone there may have seen this message.

Mac mini crashing when booting up

Hi, does anyone know why the mac mini crashes at bootup. it gets teh strart up ping, then the loading screen, then the harddrive turns off. any ideas why this is happening

I had a similar problem recently, my mini froze during a backup, held the power button down left it for a few mins and rebooted, only got the grey screen with apple logo and the spinning gear and that was it, could not get past that so I installed OS X on an external drive, the internal HDD took upto 10 mins to mount then vanished copletely a day or so later, in the mean time the optical drive stopped working as well!!, took it to the Apple store who thought it ws a dodgy interconnect board, but they called yesterday to say that both the hard drive and optical have conked out, and that the machine was packed full of dust, and possibly caused everything to overheat!! (am allergic to dust so keep my flat quite clean!!), to replace both costs about the same as a new machine so not worth it!. So off to collect it today and buy a new one. Have had the machine barely 2 years! and thought it would outlive my Dell PC!

Hi,
Since the crashed program is IBM SPSS, I suggest you reinstall or update IBM SPSS software to check the result.
Also, you can test the issue in

If the issue persists, it is better to contact IBM support for help.
Hope this helps.

Safary crashes when trying to play a video

I am using OS X Lion on a 2009 iMac 24 inch. Lately Safary crashes the moment I want to play certain videos. For instance, if I pull up the Apple.com webpage before it starts playing the video currently on the page Safary crashes immediately.

Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

Mega 865 Pro System Crash pressing CD eject button

Samsung SpinPoint 250GB SATA II Hard Drive SP2004C
1GB Kingston Hyperx 512 DDR400 PC3200 CL3
Intel Pentium 4 630 3 Ghz Socket 775 800Mhz 2mb
LG GSA4163B 16X DVD Dual Layer R/RW/RAM
Windows XP SP2
When I press the eject button to eject a CD the system crashes into bootup and then goes through the disk error check and then reloads successfully. I originally made a post on this subject but then, after uninstalling and reinstalling everything I got it to work.
What should happen when you press the eject button is a message appears on the Windows desktop saying somethng like "CD Eject". and the cd ejects. However the underlying system must be buggy because it starts to crash all over agian when something in a variety of pieces of software gets installed. I just installed ASPI drivers because Audiocatalyst indicated that only Analogue access was available when accessing my DVD drive. I have had that problem before using Windows 2000 and installing the API drivers that Microsoft for some reason does not install solved the problem. BUt now, AGAIN!! the damn system crashes when I press the eject button.
MSI techincal support is abysmal and no reply from them so far. IN fact, there query system does not even work any more.
Luckily I have ghosted a working system but what can I do to stop the system crashing?
I have read on other posts that I should change DVD drives but that can't be the reason because it does work until some small, and common system changes occur like updating ASPI drivers. I see there is a new sticky on this system which I will add to when it is stable - and I would not recommend anyone to buy it until all the problems are ironed out and until MSI talks to its customers.
I forgot to add that if I open the CD flap and press the drives own button it works perfectly which means that it is MSI's hardware that is at fault.

(sorry, I posted this message to another topic as well...)
Hi,
Some days ago I encountered a problem that seem to be very similar to this. My MEGA180 freezes because of the DVD writer. The situation is as follows:
The PC boots up without error.
If the PC was booted with a CD/DVD in the tray, it can be read without errors.
I can open the DVD tray by pressing the front panel eject button.
And now comes the problem...
The front panel button does not respond, I cannot close the tray.
If I close the tray by pressing the traay itself, the contend of the CD/DVD cannot be read, the machine freezes.
The machine works perfectly in HiFi mode.
I reinstalled Windows to a clean HDD, the problem remains.
I replaced the DVD reader with a brand new one, the problem remains.
This problem emerged without any specific reason, from one day to another. before that, Mega180 worked perfectly for several months. I did not change anything in the system during those days when the problem emerged. However, I was using Nero several times then.
Does anyone has any idea what can be the reason for this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Coix

MEGA PC 865 Pro eject button crashes system

When I press the eject button to eject a CD the system crashes into bootup and then goes through the disk error check and then reloads successfully. This didnot seem to happen using Windows 98 but it happens using both Windows 2000 and Windowsxp. Help!
Has anybody out there had easier experiences?

Many Questions on Windows 8 and Bootcamp

Hi. I have a couple questions question on windows 8 and bootcamp. I know this is probably on the internet somewhere, but i can't find it anywhere if it is. So please don't strike me down for repeat questions.
My first question is wether or not widows 8 will run on the current version of bootcamp. I know that it is not fully compatible but can it be installed with few issues since the underlying code for windows 7 and 8 should be relatively similair. I have read a posting on line that says this is possible but i wanted a second opinion. I have a 64 bit version system builder edition shipping to me right now, is this ok.
My second question is when (if ever) the patches come out for winodws 8 to run perfectly on bootcamp, will I just be able to download them, Install the patches and everything will be just fine. Would/ could it be done with out having to reinstall the operating system. This is important because a system builder lisence can only be installed once and then i have to buy another copy of windows 8 for $100.
Any and all input would be great. Thanks!

in terms of updates to win8 then as far as windows8 goes it's running on a normal "pc" not on a mac it's not virtualization here so everything works as normal
I bought an imac 2011 version 22" 4GB ....
I installed windows7 ultimate 64bit on it
since I bought the digital update to windows 8 pro
updated over the internet (you download an exe and take it from there)
it updated fine it use the windows7 drivers so everything in terms of mac stuff works as before
I let it update the amd video card driver and got a lot of crashes at bootup
rolled back to the bootcamp win7 drivers and it's a lot better
sure every now and then startup result in a crash but a reboot always get me into win8
play games and program in win8 never had a cash when I get in and because it's native games run great
likely when the official apple win8 support comes along I will stop getting the odd crash at boot into win8

Install windows 8 with bootcamp

I want to install windows 8 on my Macbook pro and I don't know if it works well.
Are there any problems due to the drivers between Apple and Microsoft ?

for me on my 2010 imac 22" everything
well everything I use anyway
thats what is build into the imac in terms of audio, wifi and usb and display port in terms of 2ed display
and magic trackpad (only for normal nagivating and 2 finger scroll though)
and the I dont use the mac keyboard I use a wireless ms nautral keyboard both in osx and win8
and then a razer mouse which is both bluetooth and usb bluetooth don't work with windows though but nor did it before I upgraded from win7 ultimate 64bit
ever now and again windows crash at bootup but never happed 2 times in a row
with the amd gpu driver win update suggested it would crash alot at bootup
once inside windows I havent had issues
some games crash when I start them most likely because of the old win7 amd driver in my case
rage and space marine
other games like skyrim, dead island and diablo3 and sc2 work fine
plan on updating the apple drivers once they are released to see if that fixes the few issues I have
