Neo4 Platinum Board, boot issue, cannot get past first screen

I've spent some time looking through the forum to see if anyone had a solution to the problem I am about to describe and did not find one.
Here is the issue:
Whenever any USB device (1.1 or 2.0) is hooked up to any one of the four onboard USB ports all I get is the initial logo screen and the computer never moves on. I have tested hooking up a USB Keyboard, USB Mouse, enclosures, pen drives, etc. As long as there is a usb device in an onboard USB port the computer will not move past the initial logo screen. If there are no USB devices plugged into the onobard USB ports then the system will go all the way through with the boot and get into windows. Once within Windows the four onboard USB ports work fine. You can plug devices in and they are recognized. If there is already a solution to this issue I apologize for posting this and please point me in the right direction.
Thanks to anyone who replies

Did you use the USB ports on the motherboard, or did you use any USB port attached to the motherboards extra connectors? if the latter, it suggests that you have some faulty wiring of the USB cables. Check so that the connectors of the USB ports are correct with their signals according to the pin layout.
Faulty wired USB will cause the problem you describe.
Also check that you have not damaged the USB port. I have seen some computers where the plastic pin in the USB port has been broken of, and the connectors have been grounded. One example was a computer where the 5VSB was bent, grounding it, resulting in that the motherboard did not recognise any PS2 or USB keyboards.
Third, if the devices you attach draw to much amphere through the USB, it may cause these problems. You might need a powered USB hub.
Fourth, make sure your powersupply is powerful enough if you have many USB devices.

I cannot open Apple TV, and cannot get past "Airplay" screen.

I cannot get past "Airplay" screen in trying to open Apple TV for TV screen use. Have tried to re-boot but no result. Cannot get to Settings as cannot get past "Airplay"; nor can I click #1 Network Configuration or #2 Choose This Apple TV. Thanks.

Hi! This seems to bee a common problem (i. e. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4094417?tstart=0) and i have it as well. As usual you can't get help here but a lot of inspiration
I recommend to upgrade the firmware using a LAN-connection and try it again. If it's stable keep it that way, if not return it to the store and get a new one.
Before of course make sure there is none of the following settings in your router:
- MAC Adress based filtering allowing only specific clients to connect (unlikely)
- no hidden SSID (wifi's name) (unlikely)
- DHCP turned on. If not, your ATV has to have a fixed IP Adress (unlikely)
- Password and Encryption mechanism is correct
It's 90% the devices fault in my opinion.

Ipad screen unresponsive.cannot get past trust screen to access computer reset

Ipad mini screen unresponive. soft boot makes no difference. trying to access itunes to reset ipad but cannot get past the trust message request. using the imac that normally syncs with the ipad. any ideas

Hi gav55,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to use your iMac to restore your iPad, but the iPad is unresponsive.
If you have restarted the iPad but the behavior continues, try to reset it next:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the touchscreen is completely unresponsive, the advice in this article may also be helpful:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
If the iPad continues to be unresponsive, you may need to place the device in recovery mode before restoring it:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
All the best,
Jeremy

Cannot get past login screen

I cannot get past the login screen. I ran the disk utility to verify/repair my hard drive. The tool fixed a minor sequencing issue which resulted in a "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be ok. That did not fix the problem. Next, I tried booting in safe mode. I cannot. I'm thinking my next step is to reinstall the OS X from the Mac Utilities Suite. My fear is that it is going to erase my Hard Drive. True? Will performing this function erase my locally stored data (files, photos contained with iPhoto)?

Start up in Safe Mode.

Cannot get past hp screen

Have HP Pavilion S3700y about 2 yrs old. Was shut down correctly last night, went to sign onto the computer and cannot get past the HP Invert screen. Rebooted and pressed F8, nothing,Rebooted and tried F10 for Bios... nothing... just the HP screen. Ideas?
thanks in advance
Scott

We have had a number of demo devices that have been sold by some stores and these will not set up a HP webOS account due to the serial number. I was checking to see if you had one of these devices; but you serial number is for a 32G consumer device and should set up properly.
The webOS doctor does wipe the partition that the ROM is on, but not the partition that any data is stored. Was this device new in a sealed box, or an open box?
You could try a full erase by holding the power button, the volume down button, and the center button simultaneously for 5 seconds. This should initiate a full erase of this device.

Ix2 fails to respond, cannot get past login screen

I am having intermittent problems with my Iomega ix2 failing to respond. After some time being on the drive fails to respond. I cannot open any files through Windows explorer. If i attempt to connect using the web interface i cant get past the login screen. I put in my user name and password and hit enter. The page simply reloads the login screen. The only solution is to power the drive down using the button on the back of the unit. Powering it up it works fine. Eventually though this will happen again. It's happened a half dozen time or more in the last few days. Now I'm stuck out in the field and cannot access any files. Please help.

No. No errors in the event log of any kind other than the time sync error. I recently replaced one of the disks as it had failed. I receieved a warranty disk from Lenovo/Iomega about a month ago. i installed it and it rebuilt the RAID with no problems. This error has been happening since then. When the time sync error happens i get all kinds of strange behavior. SFTP, which is how I access the files, will start giving Goodsync 'cannt reach end of file error' type errors. Like I've mentioned before I also get an issue where the web login screen gets caught in a loop too. I type in the user name and the password, hit enter, and it just reloads the login screen again. Rebooting the device from the power button on the back is the only solution.

Cannot get past diagnostics screen after updating ios 5.1.1

I just updated my iPhone to the new ios 5.1.1. After the phone restarted the first screen to come up was regarding wi-fi. Chose my network and moved on. Next screen was strictly policy. Accepted it and moved on. Next is the diagnostics screen in which you can choose for apple to send you daily diagnostic and usage data. Regardless of what I've chosen (automatically send or don't send), I hit "next" and the phone doesn't load past this screen. I've turned the phone off/on, etc. Anyone know what's up??? please please help

If you cannot get the iPad to respond in any other way, you may need to restore the device.
Connect the iPad to your PC and launch iTunes. Select the device on the left side and then click on the Restore button in the summary pane of iTunes.
But Read this about restoring your iPad before you proceed.

If that will not work, you may need to use recovery mode. Read about that here.

MBP running Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.8 cannot get past login screen even in safe boot

Help! I have a Macbook Pro purchased in 2009, running Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.8 which froze while running Adobe Illustrator. On reboot, it won't allow me to go past the login screen. I tried starting up from the disc, running disk verification and repair and repairing disk permissions, and trying to start up in safe boot, all to no avail. When the login screen comes up it gives the name of my hard drive with a (2) after it, which seems strange. Any suggestions short of reinstalling the system software? I don't want to lose my applications/data!

I am a novice mac user. Again my mac is getting slower by the day and i dont know how to increase its overall performance. Is there any simple software that can boost overall performance or will I have to reformat my MBP? I have a 200gb HD with 50 gb free and 4 gb of ram.
Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
Launch the Activity Monitor utility. Pull down the list near the top and set it to "All Processes". Click on the "CPU" column heading to put the highest CPU consumers at the top. Also click on the "CPU" tab in the lower part of the window to check the value for "% Idle". If that value is much above zero, check the other categories for signs of resource problems. If nothing there points to a possible problem, launch the Console utility and look for messages that might suggest a problem. If you see messages that you have trouble interpreting, post them here and someone should be able to help.

I have replaced my motherboard as I had thought it originally was a duff BIOS chip as despite reflashing it, it would rarely pass the POST.
All parts apart from the PSU are the original Kit which had been working for 13 months ish.
Problem i am experiencing is the D-Bracket 2 Diagnostic LEDs are coming up Red/Amber as opposed to Red/Green and the machine just sits there and never displays anything, hence why BIOS isn't mentioned as I have no idea what version is currently on the BIOS chip.
I have stripped out down to just CPU and still get the same problem, I then swapped it for a FX53 which I had lying around which I know worked as it came out of my Vapochill chassis and also swapped out for some OCZ PC3700 512MB EB Dual Channel Platinum 3-3-2-8.. still no joy.
Any ideas greatly appreciated as I don't want to rebuild my machine as it is exactly how I wanted it I feel I have checked everything but maybe someone can shed a little light.
Anyone want a spare mboard or two ?? I now have three !

Your Tagan's behavior was typical of a failing PSU... but the Turb-Cool model you mention doesn't exist at the PCP&C web site; in fact there are a total of five other 510 models, some of which have only an 8-pin CPU power connector, so it's impossible to figure which one you have. Does your PSU have a 4- or 8-pin CPU power connector and, if the latter, how do you have it connected to the mbrd? The only 8-pin CPU power connector I've seen could not be connected to a 4-pin socket, which your mbrd has... or does your mbrd have both 4- and 8-pin?
The only other thing I'd remark is that Vista will not run satisfactorily with your nForce3 mbrd and an ATI video card.

Cannot get past startup screen

My dad has the same MacBook pro as me but has been having some serious problems. It's running snow leopard but has recently not been sleeping, when the lid closes it seems to re start itself and cannot be shut down, only restarted.
Then this weekend it fails to get pas the startup screen. The grey screen appears, a progress bar, as if it's updating goes about a tenth then stops, and after a while disappears, then the grey wheel just spins.
I've searched for an answer have have tried the following
Does not boot in safe mode
Does not boot from disk
Reset the pram
Reset the SMC
Booted in single user mode, and it says rebuilding catalog b tree, but cannot do it as erros on HD
Not sure what else to try. Is there a way I can format the drive and reinstall osx? Not bothered about the data on the drive so long as I get it working again..
PLEASE HELP
cheers

You need an appropriate OS installer disk to do what you want. If it won't boot from the OS installer disk then you can't do what you want. Bring it to an Apple store or AASP.

W520 cannot get past thinkvantage screen

When I boot my computer the thinkvantage screen appears then it goes away for a few seconds (the bluetooth icon lights up below the screen). then it reappears. This loop keeps going. If I press the blue thinkvantage button it says 'entering recovery mode' but then goes back into the same cycle. I can press the f1 button to get to the bios but not sure that will help me.
The machine is two years old, has a solid state drive in it, if that matters.
I have taken out the battery and unplugged to no avail. I don't have the recovery disk with me, out of town.

Try removing the SSD and booting. If it ends up trying to PXE boot, there might be something wrong with your OS.

I reset my macbook and now I cannot get past registration screen

I reset my parents macbook because I have battery issues (was not showing a battery present) so i wanted to do a full reset
i did the whole..command prompt.. mount -uw, dir....applesetupdone ... shutdown -h now..
my computer restarted at the registration screen - once i finish it and put in my password it says creating account...then resets.. and i tried it over and over and over and the same thing happens
i dont know what to do?

The Mac is already registered when the first admin account was setup. The "faking" has led to a re-registration, and if you use a different Apple Id than one originally used, the Apple servers disallow a brute-force takeover of support profiles which tie Apple Id and machine serial numbers. Please skip registration and continue.
