K7N2 - Bios Checksum Error - But wont load program to flash bios

Hi there, my computer restarted itself due a problem with windows (kernel dll or something arather), since then it wont boot at all, beeps twice and says Bios Checksum error.
Now i understand this means the Bios is corrupted and i need to re-flash it. I looked at instructions on how to do this and followed them to the button. However, it wouldnt load a boot disk at all so i reset the Cmos using the jumpers.
After reseting it would now read the disk (i can hear it make noises) but it would only get as far as starting to load the award flash program, i.e. it just says "Starting..." but then the disk will stop reading at it will just hang then doing nothing.
I've tried numerous disks and numerous bios version numbers (but obviously the right ones for my motherboard: K7N2 Delta series Ms-6570), and i've tried using different types of bootdisk all with the same result.
Is there anything else i can do? or is it pretty much screwed and i have to take it back to the shop i bought it from and request a new bios chip (technically its still under warranty, as its only 10 months old but would this be covered with the warranty?). I can foresee taking it back being a huge hassle so if there is anything i can do to avoid this, it would be greatly appreciated.

I never cleared the cmos with the power on. Sorry i didnt make it clear, but yeah i always made sure the power was completely out. I left the battery out last night too, but still no change. All cables are on right, and I'll try taking out all the cdrom and cd when i get home. I cant get into Bios (pushing del key). all i get is two beeps and boot block telling me that there is a Bios Rom Checksum error (again, sorry i wasnt being very clear).
I think it might be pretty much stuffed. I'm tempted just to go to the store and buy another one as they aren't too expensive and probably not too much of a price difference from getting a new bios chip and having to wait for 2 weeks while it gets delivered. But then again maybe i should just be patient and save myself some money.
Hmm, could it be due to bad RAM? I'll try swapping it with my brother's and see what happens. It's kind of ridiculous that they give the same generic error message for a multitude of different problems, someone should fix that.

SRW248G4P - (!)Loader Binary checksum error - ERR Runtime Loading Fail - System Halt.

We have this 48 port switch in our engineering department, and it basically stopped passing network traffic.
When connecting to the Console port and power cycling the switch, this is what I see:

I've tried to update the "SRW224G4P_SRW248G4P_image_v1310.bix" file using Xmodem download, but since I really wasn't sure how to use this boot loader tool, I haven't been successful at doing that, nor do I even know if that's the solution for the problem that I'm having.

I'm guessing that I'll need to contact Cisco tech support, although at least through their web site, they make that nearly impossible to accomplish.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what may have happened to our switch and what I should do to recover? Of course we're about to start a time-critical round of product testing, and without this switch, I'm dead in the water. And it's not like we have a spare 48-port PoE switch lying around.

Hello,
I got the same issue. After downloading and uploading the firmware, I got the following result and all LED on the switch are glowing. Could you please help on this issue? Where can I find the right firmware. I also have Image loader 1.0.1.

IPhone will connect to network but wont load any internet pages.

OK, I have an iPhone (1.1.1) and an apple airport graphite base station which is connected to a D-Link G604T router.
iPhone will connect to the airport but wont load any internet pages. My iBook works fine on the internet when connected to the airport.
Any ideas?
Thnanks.

Daniel Langer,
Make sure the graphite base station is configured as a bridge, and not assigning IP addresses itself if the D-Link is doing DHCP.
If it is acting as a router, you will have NAT occurring twice, which can have a variety of issues.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Reinstall OS X, either from disc or a recovery partition. You don't mention which version of OS X you're running so I don't know which it will be.

Itunes installs but wont load up

I have installed itunes 9.0.2 64 bit on windows 7 64 bit computer. It wont load at all. itunes.exe*32 starts up in the task manager applications then quickly disappears and nothing more happens. I have tried downloading again, and removing all apple applications and registry refs then reinstalling but that doesnt work either. I have tried turning off virus programs, checking computer for malware and spyware.
I dont know what to do next. I just cant get it to load. It worked prior to the itunes 9 upgrade. but now i cant go back as I have uninstalled everything.
I was dreaming of an iphone - I guess that is out of the question if I cant get the software to work at all

I do use norton 360 so maybe some vodoo there?
Possibly, although I tend to associate a Norton-related (generally speaking, "firewall-related") error-message-free iTunes launch failure with an iTunes.exe appearing in process manager and never going away (rather than the quick flash of an iTunes.exe that you're seeing).
Could you check something for me, please? Try to launch your QuickTime Player. Does it launch properly, or do you get odd things happening when you try to launch that too? If odd things happen, could you describe them for us?

Ok I have been following the instructions supplied on this website http://www.zentus.com/sqlitejdbc/usage.html.
I have downloaded the jar and the dll file and have placed them into the same folder as my jar file. Then as it says I enter into the command line:
"java -cp sqlitejdbc.jar - Djava.library.path=. - jar CBL_Program.jar" and I get this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.sqlite.JDBC

Which seems to be the same exception as when I run the program from netbeans.
I am really stumped on this one, please can someone help.

Iphone connects to wifi but wont load any data

my iphone will connect to my wifi network with a good signal but when i open safari, check weather,stocks etc. it wont load. in safari it says it cant connect to the server and in weather, stocks etc it says update failed. It just started doing this yesterday and my wifi worked before. Also my internet is working. Please help this iphone isn't even a week old!!!
PS i can connect to other wifi networks but not mine

wonder if you could perhaps help me also with a similar difficulty ?
I have the itouch and I am having a Wifi issue. Is there a particular kind of combination setting that perhaps I am not doing. What I mean is when you go to wifi settings. There is DHCP , BootP and static at the top of the page. Then at the bottom, we have off, manual and auto. Also in between all that there it displays Ip address , subnet mask, router, dns, search domains and client id.
What is a dns ? I would love to know and even better how do I get this thing to work, which did until three days ago.
Thank you in advance

Safari opens but wont load pages

Ever since I've downloaded the latest software updates from Apple a few days ago, safari will open but not load pages 90% of the time. I have to force quit safari multiple times and try it again before it will finally open and load pages. what's up?

I am having the EXACT same problem. At first I thought my network had slowed down, and I was ready to switch to Cable from DSL to speed things up, but then I noticed that when I bring my work portable home and work on the same network, I don't have any problem--although it uses the same network. It's a Dell portable that uses Windows and I get the same speeeds I have gotten until recently on my Apple computers. I switched to Apple and bought a new computer for my daughter last year and one for myself this year to avoid the security problems with Windows XP, but now my service is so slow that even dial-up would be speedier and half of the time the page loads don't work at all. WHat's up with this? I tried Firefox, but it's really not much better after the first day.

Firefox just stopped working! It opens but wont load any sites and gives no error messages. internet working as using safari now.

Was in the UK yesterday and Firefox was working no problem. Arrived back in Denmark today and FF has stopped working. Mac was closed down for the flight over. Firefox opens and does nothing.. when I click on a bookmark the address bar stays empty and the little search icon continues to rotate. Reset firefox and still get the same problem. I am using the same internet connection I used before going away! Please help!

Check the connection settings.

i got a ipod yesterday 30gb
and i put in the disc for itunes that came with it
it'll install itunes but it wont let me open up the program

i downloaded itunes before i got my ipod from ipod.com
and it worked fine...
then my computer was freezing and i decided to restore my computer to a earlier point...
because of the fact that everytime id get on the internet and go on sites and what not my computer would freeze
so i restored it
but then itunes was erased from my computer there was no itunes icon on the desktop
and i tried downloading it again from the computer and the same stuff started happening
about the error thing
ive tried to erase the whole itunes and everything that goes along with that
and try putting the itunes in again but it still does the same thing
i dont know what is going on
my dads going to bring the computer in tomorrow at his job and his friend is going to try to fix it
but if it doesnt work ill have to reboot my whole computer and everything will be erase...
i dont want to do that
ill do that as a last resort
if anybody can help me thatd be great
what is wrong... i doubt its itunes and the ipod
heres a screencap of what pops up when i click on the itunes icon or when i try opening it
dell Windows XP
dell Windows XP

I actually had this problem re-installing iTunes yesterday.
Click on the Send Error Report and it will, after sending, come up with a microsoft online link thing. Click on that and it goes to this site that says "Apple as infomred Microsoft that they can fix this problem." and then it says, "Follow this link." Click on the link on the page and it will come up to the newest iTunes download page. Download that and it should clear up. Make sure that you have completly uninstalled and deleted all folders in Program files for all iTunes / iPod related services, except your music folder.

Joined weight watchers online and cant launch the plan manager. It works fine on my main p.c but not on my acer notebook. The page comes up but wont load?

I never use to have a problem but recently i cant track my points. Sometimes the page does load but then it wont let me enter any data?

JeanetteIt was midnight, and I had to wake up at 5:30, so that was true. I didn't really think it was going to work, but I was hoping.
Anyway, this can be locked too, I guess. I have an idea on how to find what's wrong.
