MAX shows PXI card when booted into Windows but not in Hypervisor mode

Hello again all you helpful forum-goers!
I'm having some difficulties with a Hypervisor system seeing the two Pickering 6 channel programmable resistor cards that are loaded into the PXI chassis. When I boot into Windows mode, MAX sees them under the My System just fine. When I then run the Hypervisor configuration software, I see them both listed, and have them assigned to the Real-Time OS. However, when I then boot into Hypervisor mode, MAX does not see them under the Remote Systems -> Hypervisor Target -> Chassis (or anywhere else), and the drivers report not seeing any modules either when I debug my code running on the real-time system.
Does anyone have any idea what setting or configuration I might have incorrect? Is there any other information I can provide that would be relevant or useful to answer this question? I'm not the main hardware guy, he just got married and so isn't available, so I'm out of my comfort zone. ;-) I write the software that runs on the system, though, so I'm not completely clueless. I know we just replaced the controller in the main chassis with a faster one (unfortunately I don't have the number on hand, the simulator is down in the lab), but I also know we are using that same controller and Pickering card on a different simulator and it is working just fine.
Any ideas? I very much appreciate your time!
-Joe
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Nevermind, the answer turned out to be that I did not have the drivers fully installed on the real-time system. Apparently that caused it to not recognize the cards. I never did figure out / remember exactly how to install the Pickering drivers on the real-time side, but fortunately I was able to just copy all the files that had "Pickering" in their name from the C:\ni-rt\system folder of the real-time file directory from another simulator to this one. ;-)
Cheers!

Macbook pro won't wake up when booted into Windows 7

Macbook Pro (Late 2010) with Snow Leopard and Windows 7 64bit. Bootcamp 3.3
When booted into OS X, then close the lid, let the machine sleep and later, if I connect to power source and USB keyboard and mouse, and then tap keyboard, machine wakes up.
If booted into Windows 7, if I follow same sequence, the machine won't wake up. The only way I can wake the machine up is by opening the lid.
Not a big problem, but certainly an annoyance.
Can anybody help?

Did you use a geniune windows installation disc? I ask this because I worked on a computer today where someone had tried to use a Windows XP disc that came with a Dell computer. These do not work.
If it was a genuine install disc, did you get all the way through with the installation, or did something go wrong during the install?

Remote disc when booted into Windows via Bootcamp?

I have a PC only program that only works when the CD Rom is in the drive. My question is whether the remote disc functionality works when you are booted into the Windows side of the computer. I have installed the program i need to run on the windows side, however, it requires the physical disc to be inserted when the program runs. Can remote disc work for this?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

Good question. Here's what Apple provides:
MacBook Air- How to use Remote Disc to share DVDs or CDs on a Mac or Windows-based computer
MacBook Air- USB optical drive required for installing Boot Camp

Is it possible to bypass the number of partitions limitation (no more than 2) when trying to boot into windows by not using boot camp assistant, and instead just partitioning the drive manually?

I can't find a specific answer to this question.
I did have a functioning Windows 8 installation on my MacBook Pro previously. I tried to make a third exFAT partition so as to have a drive mutually readable/writable to both operating systems. This made it so I could no longer boot into my Windows installation.
I know I'll need the boot camp drivers installed on the Windows installation after the fact, but would manually creating a partition and installing the OS without Boot Camp Assistant work? And would I be able to boot from it while having a total of 3 partitions?

That's the spirit!
Just be sure to have your OS X junk safe in a tested backup, in case the whole thing craps out and you end up having to do a low-level partition and erase of the entire drive.
And like I said, the problem is not OS X. I've set up mine at least once with 4 partitions holding as many flavors of OS X as can run on the hardware, all perfectly bootable on demand.

Iphone 3g not recognized by computer(s). Windows 7. Charges when plugged into wall, but not PC's. Also not listen in Device Manager. I have hard reset/soft. reinstalled itunes after clean wipe. went through services... help! Windows 7

Hello all. My system is Windows 7 64bit. In the past my phone worked just fine, plug it into a usb slot, synced up, updated... but for months now it has not worked. Other Iphones will not work on this PC either with their corresponding cables. But my Iphone will also not work when plugged into other computers.. it will not show up at all.. no charge.. no itunes... no drivers show up in Device Manager. My phone works just fine when plugged into the wall with it's cable.. charges fine everything works.. but it will not charge when plugged into a computer.
So far... I have uninstalled everything related to apple... ran ccleaner.. fixed registry errors. Reboot PC, reinstall all itunes and apple components (all latest software) and nothing.
I have gonet o services and stopped and started apple mobile device. It is set to automatic.
I have hard reset the phone and soft reset it.
The cable obviously works. The Phone works when plugged into the wall.
Other Iphones will not work on my pc, nor will my iphone work on theirs
I have disabled windows firewall along with my Comodo Defense Plus and it's firewall. I have disabled my AV. I have scanned with ad aware plus, Avast, ran hijack this and fixed registry errors. Ran Ccleaner.
My device manager does not have anything related to apple in it.. I have no idea why. My Device Manager has no portable devices detected at all and does not recognize anything related to the phone.
Core 2 duo 6600
2gigs of ram
Windows 7 64 bit
I have checked all the tech support stuff I can find. I am desperate. Apple will not help me on the phone without charging me 30$.

Also.... my phone works and can do everything fine when not plugged in.. I just can't get my computer or others to recognize the darn thing when plugged in!

Can boot in windows but not imac

I can start my imac by pressing down the option button on startup, but I can only get on windows partition. When I try to start up in mac, I get the grey screen with the apple logo. I have tried everything. Is there a way to fix the problem with the start up/boot up on the windows side?

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Boot into the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 3
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Step 4
Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 5.
If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 5
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
Step 6
Reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 7
Repeat Step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 8
This step applies only to older Macs (not current models) that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery. Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a boot failure. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 9
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. If you can't get to an Apple Store, go to another authorized service provider.

I can boot into Arch, but not DM or DE [solved]

I just recently installed Arch in VirtualBox. Arch is running on 1GB of RAM (changed from 512MB) and 8GB of storage with dynamic size enabled. I set the specs low as I want this to be portable and load on almost any machine. When it boots up I can access command line, but not DM or DE. If I set it to automatically boot into a DM or DE, it hangs (black screen). I have tried different DMs (GDM, KDM, SDDM) and DEs (Gnome, KDE, Plasma), but I get the same problem. During the boot process I get intel_rapl: no valid rapl domains in package 0 and SMBus base address uninitialized. While researching though, these problems don't appear to be linked to mine. Any advice would be helpful, thanks.

Why did you chmod it? This is not in the instructions.

What does this mean? Is this some translation or interpretation of an error message? Post the *actual* output.

XDM is also not part of the instructions for testing TWM. If you start doing random other steps, we will not be able to help you as we will not understand what state your machine is in.

Please post the *full* output. The server terminated successfully suggests a problem with your xinitrc, so as ewaller requested, we'll need to see that - after you provided the actual output and error messages you are getting.

I want the cursor to be in the address bar when creating a new window; it works for new tabs and in a new private window, but not in safe mode.

I have tried following the advice offered in the few different threads I have found on this but nothing fixes it. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window and/or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I fixed the issue for new tabs via about:config but this doesn't work for new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In new private windows the cursor is in the address bar.

The search box in about:home steals the cursor. Changing your home page to something else will cause the cursor to start in the address bar for new windows.

HP Mini 110-3500 Netbook: How to skip Boot Manager screen when booting into Windows 7 Starter

Hi,
As per the topic. I can't seem to deactivate the boot manager screen and it's getting really annoying having to press the enter key each and every time I turn on my netbook.

First you need to get into the BIOS. You can accomplish this by holding down the F10 (aka volume up) key located on the top of the keyboard near the right.
Next hit the right > arrow key (located on the right bottom of the keyboard) 3 times to get you to the System Configuration tab.
Thirdly, hit the down arrow key (located on the right bottom of the keyboard) 3 times to take you to the Boot Options sub menu and hit Enter
Hit the down arrow key once to highlight HP Quickweb and hit enter.
Select Disabled and hit Enter
Hit F10 (Yes should be selected) and hit Enter
DONE!!!

Black screen when trying to boot into Windows 7

Hello everyone.
Today we've encountered an issue with one of our MacBook Pros with Windows 7 installed. The computer was booted into Windows 7 (it's strictly used as a Windows machine by this particular user) and after a time of inactivity it went to sleep. It wouldn't wake up from it's sleep so we tried a hard boot. At that point we would get the grey screen, the Apple tone wouldn't sound off and it would just go to a black screen (by default we have it booting to windows). So then we reset the PRAM. Now, we get the apple tone and we can boot into the Mac side. But when we try and boot into Windows, we get a blank screen.
What's even more interesting, if I try and boot into a Windows install disk to do a boot repair, it gives me a black screen. If I even try to boot from a live Linux cd, I get a blank screen! When important thing I then noticed was that the cd spinned for a couple minutes, then stopped. So I began to wonder if it was still loading the OS like expected, but just wasn't displaying it.
So I booted into Windows, got the blank black screen. Then I went into another computer, fired up remote desktop and voila! I'm in the machine!
So the problem is this: When booting into ANYTHING other than OS X, the display turns off.
What can we do?

Hello there,
I have a similar problem! Windows 7 shutdown unexpectedly and since that I can not reboot in windows anymore only with safe mode where everything is a mess.
Also when it's trying to reboot in windows a blue window appears,says something about drivers and it is counting something (79.78...till100)but I m not able to read it cause it disappears immidiately and then black screen and then it turns to reboot in mac which works fine.
I m sorry if I confused you with my english...
If anyone knows please help!
Thanks

Are you saying you're running Windows in BootCamp or Windows as a Virtual Machine? You can increase the fan speed on the Mac using smcFanControl and use the software OGELTHORPE recommended to observe improvements.
smcFanControl is a Mac application and doesn't work in Windows, but if you set a higher minimum fan speed (which is how smcFanControl works) while running OS X, when you reboot into a BootCamp partition, that minimum speed tends to be carried over.

Using Airport on A mac When you booted into Windows XP

I'm a complete newbie when it comes to iMac computers. In a short while, I will receive my first imac Computers. As i Heard, you can access my wireless network at homewith the airport in my Mac. However, how do i access the web if i was to Boot in Windows Xp. Is there a special process that allows me to use the Airport card when Im using Windows Xp
Windows XP

Hi
The Airport connection will appear as a wireless connection in your network settings in Windows. Depending on your Windows configuration, it may well appear as an icon in your taskbar at the bottom right of the screen - you can double-click on this icon (and enter a password if necessary) to access your network.

If I want to run OSX Server and also want to run Windows 8 on Boot Camp, will server still run when I boot into windows?

I want to set up OSX Server on my iMAC running Mavericks and also install Windows 8 on Boot Camp. If I do this and boot into Windows, will that prevent server from running while I'm in Windows?

No. Bootcamp, as you've described, requires rebooting into your chosen operating system. If you want to run both OS X and Windows at the same time from your hardware, look at virtualization tools like Parrallels or VMWare.

Trying to boot into Windows with no Windows Partition

So I tried Windows XP on boot camp and ofcourse it says it's not installed when it clearly is >_>
So I restored and when I boot up it tries to boot into windows, when it loads it says Disk Error insert boot disk. When I hold alt it only shows Macinstosh HD.
I've just re-partitioned and restored to Mac full partition again so I need to reboot and see if that works...
Any help?

The last line in your post says "I've just re-partitioned and restored to Mac full partition again so I need to reboot and see if that works"
Rebooting should take you to OSX provided you removed the BC partition correctly (using Boot Camp Assistant)
I am not sure what you mean by the rest of the post "So I restored" restored what?
It sounds as though XP was either not installed or not installed correctly, what happens now when you reboot?
