MS5182 Machine will not reset.

Hi
I know this is an old board but a friend has asked me to look at it for him. I have done a clean install of Win Me. At this point the reset facility works fine. Somewhere between fully updating ME from Microsoft.com and installing office 2000 all reset requests fail. The machine shuts down to the point where it should re-initialise the post test but it just sits there with processor fan running and doing nothing.
I thought that there maybe a problem with directx but that is just a shot in the dark!!
Has anyone had similar problems?
Paul

tell us the complete hardware including the psu w/ it's specs

  • Time machine will not back up to time capsule

    Time machine will not back up to my Time Capsule on my MacPro running SnowLeopard. Error message says it cannot access the backup file. I have reset the TC, and erased the drive and I get the same error on initial backup. I can see the volume and drag files to it, so the disk appears OK. What's going on here?

    Depending on exactly what message you get, you might need #C17 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting
    If not, please post the message (a screenshot would be fine).

  • Time Capsule will not reset - just flashes yellow

    I have a 2 TB Time Capsule that will not reset - it just flashes yellow.
    I have tried all the various reset options, left the unit uplugged overnight and all I get is a blinking yellow light.
    Via airport the only option that I see is to set up a wireless network, there is no configuration window for the time capsule. I am not using this a wireless device, I have a comcast modem for that. It is being used for backup only.
    When I select time machine under system settings, I can see the drive. I can select it but it will not accept the password. I have verified that I am using the correct password from the keychains utility.
    I don't know if this is related, but I named the capsule TMBackUp and it shows that name in disk selection list, but when I select to use it for backups and it asks for the password (which does not work) it says, Enter your password for the server "Time Capsule d629db" so that Time Machine can access it. I don't know if the name differenc is even relevant, but thought I should mention it.
    I really suspect that it has something to do with the ip address. Up until recently I have had ip addresses that were similar to 192.x.x.x, now I have ip addresses that are similar to 10.0.0.x. I just resolved an issue that this ip change was causing with two tivo units. So I assume the issue with the time capsule is something similar. My problem is that I see no interface with the time capsule to check the ip address that it has been assigned.
    I am willing to wipe everything to start over, I just can't figure out how to get there.
    I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer.
    Thank you.

    I have a 2 TB Time Capsule that will not reset - it just flashes yellow.
    The Time Capsule will flash amber when it has been reset. This is normal. A reset takes the Time Capsule back to its original factory default settings.
    This is what you have done.
    You will need to set up the Time Capsule again just like you did when you originally installed it on your network.
    You can use the same name for the Time Capsule and passwords that you used previously, if you wish.
    You do not need to "wipe" the Time Capsule hard drive. Your backups will continue from their previous point once you have the Time Capsule reconfigured to operate on your network.

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • Ipod 4g 32G not turning on, not charging (on multiple cords, both comp and wall, 4 20min), not being detected by Itunes or Windows 7 64bit OS, will not reset, tried taking it out of "DFU", NO DMG, Itunes up2date, All I'm getting is a blank black scrn

    Ipod Touch 4th generation 32G not turning on, not charging.
    I have used multiple cords on both computer USB and wall USB converters. I let it sit there for over 20 min with each attempt.
    It is not being detected by Itunes or my Windows 7 64bit OS. I have tried all 4 of my USB ports (both USB 2.0 and 3.0), with 3 different chargers.
    Holding home and power button will not reset.
    Tried taking it out of "DFU" mode but Itunes won't detect it, I didn't think that would work anyway.
    NO DAMAGE, I have been very careful with it, aside from a few minor scratches. (that you can't even see unless the light reflects them)
    My Itunes is up to date, as is my OS.
    All I'm getting is a blank black screen. It has been working fine on this computer before. I have no idea what could have happened. I'm at my wits end here.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Error 1603
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

  • Nano 5th Gen will NOT reset or connect to iTunes

    I've tried the usual toggling of the hold button followed by the menu/select button on this Nano, which has worked on other models that I own. This Nano will not reset and isn't recognized when plugged into iTunes. Just the black screen no matter what. Out of warranty, so any suggestions other than taking to Apple would be greatly appreciated!

    If none of the suggestions mentioned in the iPod Nano 5th Gen. User Manual and on the iTunes & iPod Hints & Tips website, you should take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. If you have Apple Care, take advantage of it by calling them.

  • Machine will not boot into Windows!!

    I formatted a 32 GB partition in NTFS, then successfully installed Windows XP Pro along with Leopard Bootcamp drivers. All was well. And then I tried to restart.
    I held the "Option" key until the Mac OS and Windows drives showed. Selected the Windows drive and clicked on the arrow. Nothing happened except for the cursor freezing in position and the drive eventually spinning down. A light touch on the power button shut the machine down.
    I have tried selecting the Windows drive as the default startup disc in System Preferences, no dice.
    What have I done wrong? What can be done to repair the issue? I need help, wife about to start throwing stuff
    All the best,
    Chumpy

    Odd thing I noticed. When installing the Windows XP Pro, new full installation disc, not repair disc, I had to shut down before installing the Leopard disc and loading Bootcamp and Leopard drivers because I ran out of time. The machine booted right into Windows the next time I tried. Then, after loading Bootcamp and drivers off Leopard disc the machine will not restart into Windows.
    I have tried to do it by selecting it as the default drive and by pressing "Option" and selecting the Windows drive. Neither approach does anything. Literally. The optical drive and the harddrive eventually spin down and the machines white screen is frozen.
    So, I have redone the partition in Bootcamp Assistant. When I try to boot to the installation disc now, it won't go. For some reason this is just not working at all.
    Frustrated,
    Chumpy

  • I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I also had problem accessing my WD MyBookLive after upgrading to Maverick.
    To resolve the problem, I used  Connect To Server (Cmd K) to specify the IP address.
    Then I enter a user id and password I created in the MyBookLive.
    You can also verify that you have admin access to the MyBookLive using Safari or Chrome.
    Just enter the MyBookLive IP address as the URL.

  • Time Machine will not let me restore from backups after June, 2013.  I can see the files on the external hard drive but Time Machine skips all of them and goes back to June, 2013. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?

    And why not? Apple is selling these things like BigMacs. They can't make enough of them. You've been suffering since May because you refuse to get a decent router.
    Can you imagine if a company that makes a refrigerator told me that I needed to upgrade my electrical system to rectify a problem with their device? What kind of response IS that?!?!
    What if the problem with their device is that it requires a new-fangled "grounded" outlet and your circa 1890 house doesn't have grounded outlets. Would you refuse to purchase a $ 25 adapter on principle?

  • ODBC connection to Oracle 7 will not reset

    We are using Oracle JDBC drivers for all but one of our
    datasources which is an old Oracle 7 database. The ODBC connection
    to this database will not reset when the database is bounced or the
    database server is rebooted. We have to restart the ODBC service to
    reset the connection. Is there another way to do this automatically
    or perhaps another driver out there we can use? We are running
    ColdFusion MX 6.1 Enterprise.

    Wow, I can't believe that you are still using Oracle 7. In
    fact, unless you are on 7.3.4 you aren’t even Y2K compliant.
    Of course, I'm not even sure if there is an upgrade path from 7.x
    to 10g, but I would consider migrating off of 7 to anything else.
    Otherwise, you are going to have more and more compatibility
    problems. In fact, you can no longer even get ODBC drivers from
    Oracle for versions older than 9i.
    Good luck.

  • IPod will not reset no way, no how, but works.

    5th gen 30 GB iPod about two months old will not reset. It isn't frozen, but it will not reset. I've done everything except restoring it and I'm hesitating to do that because I'm not sure how to back up all the music on the iPod to iTunes. There are more songs on the iPod than are on the computer. Is there some way to copy all the songs from the iPod onto the computer???

    If it's not frozen, why would you need to reset it?
