Lock ups and sound looping!
I remember reading something here about people having trouble with their systems locking up and then getting a loud static noise then a sound loop when playing games.
I am getting this about 2-3 times a night now and it is driving me nuts, I do not have temp problems of any sort and I have all of the latest drivers for everything on my system.
Any ideas?
Specs in sig
Set your PCI/AGP Freq to 66.66/33.33MHz.
Increase your DDR Voltage to 2.7~2.8v.
Check if you have any background programs causing all high CPU load times while gaming.

I am getting frequent lock-ups and blue screens during boot up on my Mac Pro. The lock- ups occur sometimes during normal use and I cannot click anything or force quit. The cursor shows something is loading, but never stops. I have to use power button.

HP Pavilion Elite e91804 experiencing lock-ups and crashing after LWSEP
1. Product name and number: HP Pavilion Elite e91804
2. Operating system: Windows 7 64 bit
3. No error message (other than blue screen)
4. My most recent change was sending my computer in for the Limited Warranty Service Enhancement Program, and receiving a new motherboard.
Before I sent my computer in for the LWSEP I was experiencing lock-ups and crashes only when I was multi-tasking (playing video games, listening to music, and having tabs open in firefox).
So I sent my computer in for the LWSEP to receive a new motherboard to fix these crashes, however after receiving my computer from them, the lock-ups and crashing have not been fixed and, in fact, have gotten worse. My computer will now lock-up and crash whenever I attempt to stream anything, be that music, video, etc. I can still occasionally play video games, assuming that I am doing nothing else, and that my computer cooperates with me (not locking up), but this only happens about 1/3 of the time.
My main confusion is that sending my computer in was supposed to fix my problem, not make it worse. Any help would be greatly appreciated.1. Product name and number: HP Pavilion Elite e91804

Lock-Ups and Freezes PLEASE HELP
Hello everyone..
I come here to see if anyone can help me... Ive done it all and nothing is working.
I just recently started having problems with my computer, im not sure why this happend but ill try to explain everything as best as I can.
The problem started a few days ago while I was playing SWG's. I was playing and all of a sudden my machine froze, the screen locked-up and then after about 2 min the entire system restarted. I then logged back into my windows and after a while a system froze and restarted yet again. I though it was a SWGs issue but then the computer would freeze while browsing the net and doing other tasks.
I have formated my machine, re-installed my drivers, and re-installed the hardward. Nothing has worked.
My computer specs are
300watt PSU Enermax True Power
MSI K7n2 nforce2 8xagp mobo
athon 1700xp
512mb of Kingmax DDR 2700
SB audigy x-gamer sound card
MSI geforce4 ti 4200 8xAGP graphics card
Hope thats enough..
One last thing... When my computer restarts after the problem i get a message asking me to report the problem to microsoft... i located the error file and this is what was writen in it....

Hope this helps, i dont understand what it means so maybe one of you might...
Please help me on this... Ive tried everything i can...
Thanks in advanceIf what you are saying, and I am reading correctly:
The machine and game was working just peachy and all of a sudden the problem manifested itself?
Did you do ANYTHING to change your system prior to this happening to possibly have an effect?
the fast that you said you have re-loaded the OS and removed and re-installed the hardware with the same result tells me that there may be some sort of hardware failure and this could get difficult to troubleshoot.
First things first, try a memory testing software like memtest86 to see if you get any errors.

Lock ups and Freezing solved on my Audig
After days of trying different stuff to resolve this problem where screen locks up and looping squealing plagued my computer, I think I have finally resolved the problem. It appears that one of the programs running in my system tray was the culprit. I shut down everything in my system tray and then tried BF2 and it finally worked and has been working consistently. I do not know yet which program was causing the problem ( I'm still working on finding which one), but I have weeded out my antivirus (AVG free), my firewall?(Zonealarm),? Musicmatch Jukebox ( which I really suspected, but does not appear to be the one) and ?my Logitech wireless mouse software. Still got to reactivate Quicktime, Corecenter ( an MSI overclocking tool) Nastromo loadout manager, Instant Messenger and a couple of others. What ever the conflict in the program that is causing the problem is directly conflicting with my Audigy 2 card. I could remove the card and the problem would go away using onboard sound. But I was very disturbed that my Audigy 2 was not working. I tried removing ram, I tried using different pci slots, and lets not count the number of times that I removed and reinstalled drivers and software. Though I well give a little credit to finding the problem to this forum. There is a post advising to go to msconfig and disabling a bunch of the start up programs while doing driver removal and reinstall. After reinstalling last driver I went ahead and ran BF2 before restarting computer ( while all programs in systray were off ) and it ran flawlessly. Then I restarted computer all my normal background software loaded up. I fired up BF2 and bam there was the same old lockup and squeal. So I just went to the system tray and shut down everything and it runs smooth as butter. Hope this helps I know from reading the forums there are alot other people having the same problem.
I would be concerned that you may have a power supply going bad. Unfortunately the only way to test this theory is to replace it. If you do replace it may sure you get one that is rated at a high enough wattage to supply your system. I use a 500 watt power supply. I have had power supplies to go bad on me in the past. Sometimes the power supplies will not go entirely out, they just stop producing as much power as they normally would. This can cause some weird things to happen in your system. I've had one go bad and it was providing enough juice to let my computer cut on, but the video card wasn't getting enough?juice to operate thus I was getting a blank screen. I would also like to know if you are overclocking. Sometimes overclocking can cause heat issues that could cause a similar problem to what you are having.

K7t Turbo2 lock ups and restarts
I'm new to MSI boards and this is my first , the problem I am having is when I go to install a game (Diablo2,1503 ad and any other I have) it barely starts to install and locks up or goes blank or restarts the system. I have changed everything the only constant is the motherboard. This is the second I have tried of this board with the exact same problem. Has anyone else had these problems if so did you find a fix? Please let me know, Thank You.
The BIOS version is 3.5 , the via drivers I managed to get in that I know went in are 4.43.They came on the CD with the board. When i try 4.49 it locks up, I found newer drivers for the AC97 onboard sound and it locked up. I have 98 first edition and ME. I have a copy of XP but Microsoft will not give me a new activation number so that was money out the door as I had it for 3 days then my old hard drive crashed. The hardware I bought with the copy is still in this computer which means I have not broke the end users agreement like they say I have.When I get this totally taken care of i will reinstall XP but not before as i dont want to go thru all that with them again. The hard drive is new, the memory is new, the processor is new, the cd-rom is new, the CPU fan is new, the only thing old is the cd-rw and sound card. There are 2 reasons I chose this board 1 had alot of PC133 laying around and 2 read it was a great board and is cheap which is good as I am unemployed right now. I got 1 for me and 2 for 2 other people. My first board didn't start right away, it started just after when my hard drive crashed, bought a new drive and set it up and it wouldn't let me install,thought ok it a cheaper Maxtor Fireball3 it kinda real loud to me so I got a Diamondmax to replace the Fireball cos I thought it might be bad. Installed clean and it still did it. So I ordered in a new processor and another board from same place I had gotten the last 3. The new processor is bad it supposed to be a 1.33Athlon board reads it as a 1.0 and locks up before windows loads up. Tried it in 3 computers and it did same thing. All 3 computers had different brands of boards so it has to be the processor. Installed the new board and reformatted and installed everything clean and the problem was exactly the same and then one of the people call me with same problem I am having and they have a PCI modem in theirs and is running onboard sound. Sounds like to me something is wrong with the PCI bus or something cos it acts up when there is a card in the PCI slots. I will probably run it like it is then get me a KT6 Delta board only prob is I will have to eat the cost of at least one more plus the memory to replace the other persons also.

Multiple Panics, Lock Ups and Freezes
My MacBook Pro running 10.8.3 has been having some random shut downs and lock ups lately, the latest of which took the internal boot drive totally offline. I was able to recover it after booting to my external recovery drive and running DiskWarrior 4 as Disk Utility simply said I needed to repair the drive before mounting it, but then said it was unrepairable after attempting to do so.
After the DiskWarrior repair, the Mac booted from it's internal drive like there was nothing wrong, but an hour or so later, I had another lock up where everything froze up and was unresponsive and then after a restart I got another hour or so before it shut itself down and then restarted itself, so I'm obviously less than thrilled with the situation.
This is the factory drive which came with the MacBook Pro when purchased new in January of this year, so I have a hard time believing the drive is physically bad, though I guess anything is possible. Another thing that has me thinking it's not the hardware is that the machine runs fine when booted to the external recovery drive and has no errors or any of the symptoms I've been experiencing.
Anyway, I've been looking at the panic reports, but I'm honestly not well versed in what any of this means, so I'm hoping one of the experts can chime in and maybe point me in the right direction as I'm running out of ideas :/

This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could find some other way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail in a particular case due to human error.
For most purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, including App Store products, can be considered safe. Note, however, that at least one trojan for iOS (not for OS X) was briefly distributed by a developer in Russia through the iTunes App Store. That store is under the same oversight by Apple as the Mac App Store, so the protection shouldn't be considered absolute. App Store products may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click anything reflexively.
4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is presumably effective against known attacks, but maybe not against unknown attacks. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
5. Beyond XProtect, Gatekeeper, and MRT, there’s no evidence of any benefit from other automated protection against malware. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source, or that does something inherently untrustworthy. How do you know what is trustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily harmful.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
Even signed applications should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts or your location for no apparent reason.
6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
Follow the above guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
8. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
ClamXav may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use ClamXav unless a network administrator requires you to run an anti-virus application.
9. The greatest harm done by security software, in my opinion, is in its effect on human behavior. It does little or nothing to protect people from emerging threats, but if they get a false sense of security from it, they may feel free to do things that expose them to higher risk. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
10. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default. -
IPhone 5 lock-ups and crashes after iOS7 upgrade
On Wednesday I upgraded to iOS 7. While I like the new look and functionality, I have experienced a couple of OS crashes/lock-ups in a way that I had to force-reboot my iPhone by holding the sleep&home buttons.
There are two situations where this happens for me: First, when the phone is locked (4-digit passcode), I swipe to unlock, then I try to type the passcode, but the device is completely locked up and doesn't accept any input. It doesn't react on the sleep and home buttons either.
The second situation is when answering a call: Phone rings, I swipe the green button to answer, then the screen goes black and the device seems completely bricked until force-rebooted.
Case 1 has happened 4 times so far since wednesday, case 2 happened three times (answering three different phone calls).
The device is an iPhone 5 64GB I bought in October 2012.
None of this ever happened to me before the upgrade to iOS 7.
Doesn anyone have the same issues? Where can I get help on this?I have this issue as well and I did a hard reset and restore from icloud and did the same from my computer and neither of them fixed the issue. Of course I would be outside of my warranty period. My phone continues to crash at least 4 to 5 times a day. Please help us!!!

Computer crashes and sound loops while playing a game
My problem is similar some others i have seen in this forum and others. I have been struggling with this issues since i made the computer. The problem is while playing counter-strike after around 30 min to 2 hours the screen freezes and the sound loops and then the monitor turns off and the computer restarts. I have made possible attempts to fix the problem starting with buying a thermal take volcana for my cpu and a artic cooler for my video card. I also have my cpu underclocked from a 3200 to a 2500 i found that helps delay the problem a bit(i think anyway). I have 4 fans in my case also. I also thought it might be the onboard sound so i bought a logitec usp headset but that didn't fix the problem so i recently bought a sound blaster live 5.1 ls. I have also switch powersupplys though both were around 350-400 watts.
Any help or feedback it greatly appreciated.
my specs are:
MSI 9800 pro
K7N2 Delta-L
Athlon 3200+(underclocked to 2500)
Soundblaster Live 5.1 ls
1 stick of 512 mb Ultra
350 watts not sure of the company came with the X-Dreamer II case
hp cd-burner
Thanks for taking your time to read this any help/suggestions would be greatWhat are the max amps on 3 rails of your PSU what slot is your sound card in? Can you list your IRQ's? Run Memtest

I've been having this problem off and on now for awhile. My pc will just lock up and a message comes up "A program caused this to happen" Then the pc will auto restart page. The thing about it is it's doing it more and more. There's got to be something I can do about it...
try this link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c03408309&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us... most likely your pc is infected, my suggestion ...if you dont have important files on this computer you can revert it back to factory settings. Everything will be wiped out but Windows and the programs that was came with the package will be reinstalled

Whats up with the system lockups just frustrated as to why. I could be checking mail, surfing the web or using PS Elements 9. Makes no difference what I am doing it occationaly locks up and requires a cold boot (windows talk).
I don't think so, Lion with the latest updates is running fine for most of us.
Post the log for your next lockup or the previous one if you can isolate the timeframe.

Lock ups and other joyous occasions!
Hello everyone. I obviously am having some difficulties, and I came here for help. I currently am running a MSI KT4AV-L MB, a Athlon Xp 1800+ proccessor @ 266 fsb, 2 512 mb Micron pc2100 RAM modules, a ATI Radeon 8500LE (128mb version) graphics card, and a Sounblaster Live! Value sound card. Just to get it out of the way, my power supply specs are as follows;3.3v=28A,5v=36A, 12v=16A, -5v=0.5A, -12v= 0.8A and the 5vsb=3A. The power supply itself is a echostar 480w dual fan unit. I have Windows Xp Pro with sp2 installed, a fresh install, and all of my drivers, including the chipset, are current. I Also noted on VIA's website that Microsoft released a unified AGP driver with sp2, so I did not install Via's AGP driver, as it stated on their site. Now, for the trouble.
My old rig (the only difference was a Asus A7A266 board) would constantly lock up whenever I tried to play Medal of Honor. After testing everything out, I decided it was probably just the old Ali chipset (the Asus used the Ali magik 1 chipset) and I purchased the MSI board listed above. Well, I just finished beating Medal of Honor, but my favorite game, Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, now is locking up just like Medal of Honor used to! The entire PC locks up, I cant even get the caps lock key or numlock key indicators to light up or go off when it locks up! I,ve tried turning off and on every AGP setting in the BIOS, I've tried using the onboard audio vs the Sounblaster card, I've tried turning down the settings in the DRAM setting in BIOS, all to no avail. IM really, really upset by this-I LOVE ET, and Im really mad :waiting:I "fixed" one problem, and am havng another. I cant see any of my hardware being the issue now-if it were a bad ram chip, weak psu, IRQ sharing issue, driver problem, bad cluster on the hdd, I would have found it by now. Any suggestions?Hello,
Some questions first
Are both memory sticks the same? model, revision?
Have you tried memtest with only 1 stick at a time yet?
Could you try this,
Enter the BIOS make sure your settings are on AUTO.
XP1800+ should be 1.53Ghz
Memory on SPD.
Disable all Spread spectrum options
Set the AGP size to 128mb.
Save and exit.
Reinstall your windows XP with SP2, (SP2 integrated to the CD?)
Then install the VIA 4in1 drivers (forget the microsoft AGP driver)
http://www.viaarena.com/downloads/drivers/4in1/via_hyperion%204%20in%201_v453v.zip
restart and then install ATi catalyst v4.8
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/wxp-w2k-catalyst-8-042-040803a-016701c.exe
restart, wait a bit the screen should flicker.
Now try ET. -
Lock button not locking phone and sound thru earpiece really bad
Hi, have an iPhone 5, within a few months the lock button failed to lock my phone and during a phone call the sound thru my earpiece is really bad distorted and sometimes intermittent. ( not due to signal tho)
Are these common problems and will apple fix them or give replacement??
Many thanksWell, if only a few months old then you are under the 1 Yr warranty that comes with the device, either contact AppleCare or visit an Apple Retail Store

Black screen
If a sound was played, it looped
Keyboard keep being lightened
My macbook seems to freeze ... the only solution is to shutdown by pressing a loing time the shutdown button.
My battery is brand new and the harddrive is ok (bought less than 1 year ago).
Here is the report I've automatically got when I relaunch.
Can someone explain me what the **** is happening ?
Thanks a lot !

com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily 1.4Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):

Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. The unfortunate thing is that many people have passed the “three years from date of purchase” now and Apple is not honoring the free logic board replacement for many users. Some dealers seem to be making some exceptions for those past the three year mark, but don’t count on it…
Good luck,

Macbook pro freezes and sound loops
Hello everyone,
My mbp, which I bought last summer, has been having freezing issues in Windows. These freezes seem to happen at random, but predominantly when I am playing games. The screen would stop where it froze (everything would be still), and the sound would continuously loop. The only way out of this problem is to hold down the power button to force the mbp to turn off. When I turn the computer back on, the mbp will freeze in the windows loading screen (when the thing is moving back and forth inside the bar). It usually takes a couple tries to get my computer to start back up again without freezing in the process. However, it is not only while playing games that I encounter this freezing problem, sometimes, the computer freezes while I am playing music or even while browsing the internet.
Any help would be very much appreciated,
AaronDo the freezes occur when running under OSX, Aaron, or just under Windows?
How are you running Windows? with Bootcamp? Parallels? Something else?
Which version of Windows are you using? What version of OSX is installed?
have you installed any third party RAM? if so, what brand?
Do you have plenty of space on the drive?
Does the problem occur under both battery and power adaptor?
Have you checked the integrity of the directories using an appropriate utility?
It is near impossible to even begin to suggest possibilities unless you provide some more information.
Cheers
Rod
