Live Update 5: First-Timer Assistance Needed

Please allow me to preface this by informing you all that I am a complete noob, where custom built computers are concerned. I likely won't understand some of the techy lingo, so please bare with me. Thank you in advance.
I have a PC with a MSI 970A-G45 mainboard. The OS is Windows 7. There is a Live Update 5 icon on my desktop. Upon opening this LU5, it appears this program is used to ensure at least some of the hardware/software stays up to date. However, I am scared to death that I will click the wrong button, likely causing a disaster which I'm not capable of fixing.
As you can see, I have taken a screenshot of the Live Update screen. I clicked the scan button, and these are the results. Because I use my own virus/spyware protection, I'm fairly certain I want no part of the Norton Internet Security. Other than that, I'm not sure what to do next, if anything.
Should I download any of these results? If so, which ones? When doing this now and/or in the future, are there precautions I should take, or is it as simple and doing the average Windows update?
Thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide.

do not do the MB BIOS as that is dangerous to do as Windows is a Unstable Environment and it has a 50/50 of Bricking it (rendering it inoperable) and I advise against that part all together!
also do not use Norton Internet Security as the Virus scanner in it is prone to ultra heavy scanning and can slow down your computer alot!
as for using it turn off MB BIOS, VGA BIOS and Other Utility! and the rest is ok to use! but If you have no problems with the computer and everything is working leave it all alone....
as for BIOS its best to do it manually and if you do want to do that ask us first and we will walk you through it safely and as your a noob that's your best thing to do!
does that make sense to you?
I don't believe I am having any issues. I'm not noticing anything strange. I'm just accustom to keeping everything updated, so I wanted to make sure.
Thank you very much for your assistance.

hi
i want to use acces point air sap1602i e k9 first times i need default ip adress to setup
it is possible if not give me please solution

Hello fouadissam,
You can connect to the AP with a console cable and enter show ip interface brief, which will display the ip address.
If its connected to a network you can log into your switch and enter show arp | i xxxx.xxxx.xxxx(mac address of the AP).
The below link points to a configuration guide that may be helpful.

JWS not downloading updated files first time

We are experiencing a problem where JWS does not download the modified files when the application is launched the first time after the jar files were updated. When user launches it again, it gets the updates.
This seems to happen mostly for users in remote locations (though not for all such users). For local users the frequency is much less.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Raman.

If the application has the offline-allowed specified,
javaws has a timeout mechinism when checking for updates before launching an app. (i believe it's 1+1/2 seconds). If javaws cannot determine before the timeout if an update is needed, (and offline-allowed is specified) it will run the cached version, and continue checking in the background.
Then when you run next time, the background checking will by then have determined an update is avail, and you will have to download before launching.

Updating N70 - first-timer advice please

First off, I'd better say I've never attempted to update the firmware on any phone before. My T-Mobile Nokia N70's current firmware is – and I hope you're sitting down – v2.0537.1.7, which was out of date when I got the phone around a year ago.
I've downloaded the Nokia software updater and sorted out my phone's connection to the PC, so I'm pretty much ready to go, but just have a few questions - well, concerns really.
I know I need to back up my contacts to the PC and also save any pictures/files in the gallery, but I was wondering what else will be lost when I do it?
I don't mind losing any of the games that came pre-installed (don't know whether by Nokia or T-Mobile), but Adobe reader is useful to me. What programs etc will I lose, and what will stay after I upgrade?
What I'm probably most concerned about, however, is the connection settings. Once I have updated the firmware, will the phone retain the call and SMS/MMS connection settings, which I presume were set by T-Mobile, meaning I will be able to carry on without having to change anything, or will I have to sort them all out?
I guess it's just a case of first-time nerves, but any help or advice anyone can give me would be hugely appreciated.

Basically once you run the Software Updater tool and it upgrades your phone, it will revert to the condition that you got it when you first took it out of its box. So there will be no settings on the phone whatsoever, and any applications that you installed after you bought the phone will not be there anymore - applications that were on there when you bought it (e.g. calculator etc.) will be there.
If you have a memory card, I would recommend that you backup your phone contents to your memory card, and then restore them once the upgrade has been completed. From memory (no pun intended) I think on the N70 you can access the memory card by going to Tools->Memory card - then goto the Options menu and "Backup phone contents to memory card" or something similar. When I did this on my N70 and more recently on my N95 it also restored not only the SMS, MMS settings, but also the applications I had installed too. Once the upgrade process has been completed, you can then go back to the memory card and restore the backup to your phone.
I'm not trying to put the frighteners on you, but be aware that as with any firmware update for any device, there is always the possibility of "bricking" the device - i.e. the firmware upgrade process may go awry and you may be left with a non functioning phone.
Having said that, before Nokia disabled the ability to upgrade the firmware on a phone more than once, I ran the NSU on my N70 about 3 or 4 times and only had one problem - I've also recently upgraded my N95 and the process went flawlessly, however if you rely on your phone for business or emergency use then I would recommend that you make provisions to have another phone available in case it does go wrong.
Please ensure you are running the most recent copy of PC Suite and the NSU before going ahead with the upgrade.
The software updater can be found here : http://www.nokia.co.uk/softwareupdater
The PC Suite program (to create and restore backups) can be found here : http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite
One final word of advice - don't be in a rush when you do the process - it doesn't take a long time (at the most 10 minutes), but if you are in a rush to do this then you may be tempted to disconnect the device before the upgrade has been done - this is a VERY VERY VERY bad thing to do and will definitely turn your phone into a brick - so don't !
During the process itself you may see the screen power up and say "Test mode" - this is fine - just let it carry through and the phone will eventually come back up. If there is a scenario where you've given it half an hour and there's been no joy (e.g. the screen is blank), then take the battery physically out of the phone for 5 minutes then put it back and power the phone back on. If it doesn't come back up then you will have to visit your nearest Nokia Service Centre.
I know I've probably painted quite a negative picture, but as I've said I've upgraded the firmware about 4/5 times successfully and had no problems whatsoever, but it's only fair I paint a balanced picture so you are aware of all the pros and cons of doing this.
Good luck and please let me know how you get on.

Edward

Please Help!! First time builder needs help figuring out components for $2000 machine

     Hello everyone I know this question comes up alot, but after reading through much of it I still need a little help. I just graduated college, doing production, and want to do editing professionally. Learned on Final Cut but as I have used Pro for the last year on my own (on a HP HDX 16t, I know its horrible), I have decided to go with CS6 and learn everything there is. I don't have the budget for a warrior computer but at least I would like to get something that will 1)allow me to learn and develop using Pro, AE, and PS. and a little 4D in the future 2) allow me to gradually up grade as I become a professional and demands increase. Due to me current limitations, my independant projects have been for youtube exporting in FLV. (rendering a 3 min clip takes about 30-40 mins... so sad haha)
     I have about $2000 USD (not including the monitor) to invest in this. Before this week I have had no prior knowledge of computer building, I've learned a great deal from this forum, and I am ready to build this bad boy. here are my questions and some of the possible components ...
CPU - I'm going with intel i7. My question here is whether the 3930k hexa is really that much better      than the 4770k quad. Is this a no brainer must go with 3930? I do plan to OC.
MoBo - I have looked at some many versions of this, can I do the p9x79 pro along with the 3930k and      still stay under $2000? is it worth it to do so and get a gpu thats less expensive?
GPU - I've read a ton of forum posts in which many of you guys have said that in certain situations the      gtx 680 is over kill or not needed, and that something like the gtx 650 ti would do just fine.
     - If so how many Gbs?
     - should I lower the CPU or MoBo for a better GPU?
Drives - From all I gather I think the 128gb 840 pro is a given so check! I will get at least 2 WD      black 1 TB hhd. This seems to be a standard no matter what Mobo/CPU combo I go with, right?
                              Now the trickiest part for me is what combination of (see below) keeps me at $2000
                                   - 32gbs ram (to start, p9x79 gives me the option to get more later)
                                   - Case that has good air flow, a lot of bays
                                   - Power supply
                                   - Liquid Cooling (I do need liquid cooling if I plan to OC a 3930k right?)
                                   - Blu ray burner
This my delima.I'm still not sure what truly effects Pro and AE the most. Even after looking at the balance graphs, should I go with the Hexa, and better MoBo no matter what, or scale it down a little for a better GPU or memory? Also going into professional editing, what kind of space should I want in a case and MoBo? Besides USB 3.0 what else should I consider? What would I use the pci slots for? What peripherals are a standard that I need if not now definitely in the future?
Thank you in advance I know I am a complete novice, I guess we all started somewhere and this is my start. I could really use the help.
Appreciatively,
Jay

Oracle 9i Trigger not updating first time through

Hi,
I have read a lot of postings but this one seems to be unique. I am trying to update using from Access to Oracle backend database with a Trigger. When I put the code from the update in a test window in the PL/SQL, I step through the code and it doesn't update the first time through. The values from my :old and :new fields are null the first time through. When I change either proj_part_ppv_adj, incorp_date or end_date in the test window and step through the code again, it updates my table.
update statement:
-- Created on 10/17/2005
declare
-- Local variables here
i integer;
begin
-- Test statements here

end_date = '31-DEC-2005',
unit_prce_chg = null,
proj_part_ppv_adj = 32500,
edit_id = 'XXXXXX',
edit_dt = to_date('17-OCT-2005 08:10:32 AM',

:new.end_date <> :old.end_date or
:new.proj_part_ppv_adj <> :old.proj_part_ppv_adj then

end;
-- Add this part row to the list for after-statement processing.
pcrit_mod_proj_part.add_to_list(rowParts);
end if;
end tpcrit_proj_part_trg_ubr;

Are you lookng at tpcrit_proj_part to see if the update happend, or are you looking for the results of the after update trigger?
I believe that this is exactly what you are doing, except I have left out the after update trigger.

Hi Justin,
Unfortunately, LE7 is limited to 12 simultaneous inputs. Logic Pro is unlimited.

Trying to redeem iTunes card told first time purchase on computer needs security question answered which I did not set up or know the answer to

Mega 865 don't recognize on first time a SATA HDD after shutdown from Windows

Hi,
I have problem with a SATA HDD (Maxtor 300GB Diamondmax10) in MEGA 865 Barebone:
After I shutdown the PC from Windows when I turn on again the PC the HDD don't start on first time, I need to turn off the PC and turn on again and the HDD will start and recognize.
I tried to format HDD and reinstall Windows, to test the HDD with Maxtor Powermax utility and install the hard disk in other PC but the hard disk is ok. Last I turn on the PC without connect the SATA cable, only the power cable and the hard disk start properly every time.
I tried to upgrade BIOS to last version 1.30 and I make various configuration of BIOS and also I tried to replace SATA cable.
There isn't SATA driver in CD supplied by MSI (only Intel INF driver but no solve the problem).
I think that every time that I shutdown the PC will be stored a standby command in SATA controller that no permit to start the hard disk on first time.
I hope that you help me. Thanks.

That's right, at least for now.
I tried to imply that perhaps your particular type of HDD has some compatibility problem with the SATA ctontroller of Mega 895. Therefore my suggestion was to see if microcode/firmware updates are available for the HDD.

HT5312 I forgot to answer security question that asked me when I want to buy someone in first time.

You need to contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them.

I am running my first time machine backup onto a Western Digital MyBook Live. It is taking forever. Is there antivirus software running in the background or any other settings I need to change to speed it up? Also I am on a wireless network.

I am running my first time machine backup onto a Western Digital MyBook Live. It is taking forever. Is there antivirus software running in the background or any other settings I need to change to speed it up? Also I am on a wireless network.

The initial Time Machine backup can certainly take a long time over wireless. Days, possibly. It's impossible for anyone here to be able to predict how long it will take, and wireless environmental conditions can change at any time.
Is there antivirus software running in the background
Only you can determine that. If you're using third party AV software, anything is possible.
NAS devices may not be compatible with Time Machine, regardless of what their manufacturers may claim. Even after the Time Machine backup completes, your backup may be unreliable. You may not discover that until you need to rely upon the backup for some reason, and corruption can occur months or years from now.
Time Machine supports the following backup configurations:
A locally mounted volume
Time Capsule
A volume resident on a USB hard disk connected directly to a Time Capsule or current production AirPort Extreme Base Station.
That's it. Any configuration other than the above list places you in an experimental category. If your backup fails, you're on your own.
