New mobo...BIOS freezes when accessing "H/W Monitor Menu" -- K9N Neo-F V3

Just bought a new MSI nForce560 board, haven't installed the OS yet.  If I touch the "H/W Monitor" menu in the BIOS, it locks up.  I know the keyboard still works because Ctrl-Alt-Del will reboot the CPU, but I can no longer navigate the menu.  If I never touch that particular menu, it never locks up, but if I enter that menu for any reason, it will lock up within 5-45 seconds.  Running AMI BIOS 2.61 (6/12/07).

Hook the antec fan up to one of the power supply's 4 pin molex connectors.  There may be a conflict between the motherboard and the speed controller in th fan or there could be an overload of the motherboard's fan power circuit.
It is always best to run power to the case fans directly from the power supply.  Helps to reduce the heat generated by the voltage control circuits in the motherboard.
Excellent.  That's precisely what I did and it seems to be working GREAT!  Thanks!

  • Firefox randomly freezes when accessing bookmarks

    Firefox randomly (about 1 in 50 times) will freeze when accessing folder located on the Bookmarks Toolbar. The folder will expand as blank without any bookmarks in it and then FF will stop responding. I've reinstalled FF, deleted appdata/programdata FF folders, created new profile. The issue remained.

    Hi dry4ng,
    I am sorry to hear that sometimes that when opening folders that they open blank and it causes Firefox to start to hang.
    When you tried a new profile and a new folder, how did you create the folder, and is it the same folder giving issues?
    Over how many bookmarks are you talking? and is there anything distinctive about the folder? size, depth, type of links etc?

  • Safari still freezes when accessability voice over is on and blue tooth keyboard still doesnt work when accessability voice over is on, Help

    Hi Apple,
    iphone 5s latest updates , safari still freezes when accessability voice over is on and blue tooth keyboard still doesnt work when accessability voice over is on, Help

    Hi,
    If you are absolutely sure that neither the sound output of the Macbook nor the sound output of VoiceOver are muted then try to reset VoiceOver.
    1. Open VoiceOver Preferences.
    2. From the File menu choose "Reset All VoiceOver Preferences …".
    3. Click "Reset.
    4. Turn VoiceOver Off and On again. (hold command and press F5 twice).
    If you still don't hear anything then it could be that the main sound output of the Macbook got muted somehow. I find that I often hit the mute button on my Apple wireless keyboard without noticing. So just make sure that its not muted and also hit the "Volume Up" a few times. Its so terribly obvious I know but its also very easy to miss. Lots of people do that.

  • Computer tend to freeze when accessing internet with D-Link dir-655 router

    I recently bought a D-Link dir-655 router and since then my computer tend to freeze up completely when accessing internet. This also happens when certain programs access internet. Otherwise I am usually using Internet Explorer or Opera.
    I've found that there are many who experience problems with D-Link router, that they may have problems with certain network card. Anyone who can say if this is a known issues and if it there is a solution or if it is better to buy another router?

    Hi, Ernst:
    Would you consider backing up your files and doing a system recovery?
    Maybe the OS has some corrupt registry files or something.
    If you recover and then it still does that, your only choice looking at the motherboard is a PCIe gigabit ethernet adapter which would be relatively easy to install, or you could even get a USB ethernet adapter and not even have to open the case.
    See if there is a setting to disable the onboard NIC if you have to add a network card.
    I would rule out all software problems before buying hardware.
    If you want to try some other malware program, I recommend the free Kapersky rescue disk. You burn the file to a CD and boot from it.  It scans the drive and deletes any malware or virus files it finds without the PC being in windows. A lot of times viruses and malware can't be removed when windows is running.
    Link to the download and instuctions for use is below. I like to use the graphic interface rather than the text interface.

  • Labview freeze when accessing a custom menu with data on the clipboard

    This one has got me stumped:  When selecting a custom menu item with data on the clipboard the GUI freezes.  Freezes are longer for more data and longer for older versions of Labview.  I wrote the test code, attached, but the example "Menu Selection Demo.vi" shows the same behavior.
    Running Labview 2011 here are some freeze delays for my laptop (a bit slower machine) with various amounts of text data on the clipboard:
    Clipboard size        Delay
    1.3MB                   2.1 sec
    2.6MB                   4.9 sec
    3.8MB                   17.2 sec
    14MB                    253.3 sec
    The delay appears to be non-linear.  A doubling of the clipboard data size more than doubles the delay and a tripling of the clipboard data size produces a delay of almost 10X!  Things are also much, much worse on my ancient version 8.2.1 (over a 40 second freeze for 1.3MB and it goes up from there).
    Note that the freeze also occurs on programs with a custom menu when exiting.  This would seem to suggest it might have something to do with the timeout, but why timeout should vary with clipboard size and not with the value wired to it makes this feel even more like a bug in the custom menu functionality.
    This seems to be related to known issues in Labview 2011 #39604 49UBP4LE (http://www.ni.com/white-paper/13168/en#39604_by_Da​te) that was first reported in version 8.2.1.  This known issue relates to Labview freezing when large amounts of data are copied from Labview to the clipboard.  No fix has been implemented since this was originally reported in 2007.
    This freeze also occurs when shortcuts to menu items (such as Ctrl + L) are used when large amounts of data are on the clip board.
    Thus far this has been 100% repeatable and I have not been able to find a way around it.  I also haven't found anything else similar on the forums or on the web.  It appears to be a GUI freeze with Labview still running in the background, which is also odd.
    My work-arounds at this point are either to not use the clipboard (bad), programatically clear the clipboard several times each second (worse) or remove all custom menu functionality and replace those functions with onscreen controls.  So, for now, I'm removing custom menu items because my users need the clipboard and I can't have massive delays making my data acquisition code look crashed.
    Any ideas would be helpful.  This one has me scratching my head...

    Well, doing Microsoft Word, Excel and what else on a computer that is used to run an important production test, is a very bad idea. There is no way that you can guarantee, that one of these applications is not causing some interruption to the currently running time critical task. Word and Excel and just about any other computer application can crash, lock up the computer or eat your breakfast while you are doing seemingly harmless things.
    The issue with the clipboard in LabVIEW is indeed a problem that exists for a long time and I hope they fix it sometime, but the fact remains, that you should NEVER use a computer for other tasks while you run a test or other manufacturing related application on it, when a failure of that application can cost you more than a few pennies.

  • Firefox freezes when opened on secondary monitor using default profile. Other profile okay.

    Windows 7. Firefox 28.0. Hardware acceleration is off in both profiles.
    Default profile behaves normally in the primary monitor (I have two monitors). When I open the default in the secondary monitor, it appears to be at maximize size but only the top bar of the screen is visible. If I shrink it, it locks up, but I can slide it over to the primary monitor where it then works normally.
    If I open it in the primary monitor then move it to the secondary, it shows in a less than full screen. When I maximize it, a duplicate screen partially opens and both freeze, and menus freeze when I open them. I can slide it back to the primary where it works normally.
    My other profile is an old one with all the bookmarks, settings and history. It works fine on both monitors.

  • Extra Logon required when accessing the Job Monitor

    Hi Friends,
    This is an  annoying  problem. Whenever I load data to a data target ie Infocube or ODS, upon accessing the job monitor from the Manage target screen, I am prompted to present login credentials even though I am already logged in.
    My account is configured  with SAP_ALL  authorizations.
    Does anyone know how to stop this intermediary logon step ?
    Thanks

  • Bios freezes when I try to access it - MSI PC Mate A78-g41

    Hi there,
    I was hoping someone would be able to help me...
    Whenever I press the appropriate key to access my bios screen it bring up another screen with 2 buttons. One is to turn on 'OC Genie' and the other is for motherboard settings.
    When I click the motherboard settings button everything freezes and I can't access the bios.
    I am trying to access it to allow me to investigate another problem I am having;
    Since flashing my bios windows will not load with an error about unable to access device. After a little bit of research I believe it may be that since the flash my bios is set up incorrectly to register my hdd.
    Any help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I'm not sure of the ram. I think 1 is 4gb unbranded and the other is 4gb hyper x?
    Now when I try to enter my bios setting is get blue screen with the error (bin file is incorrect)
    If I don't press DEL to go to setup after the msi logo I get a Windows failed to start, an error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data.
    The only was I can get anything different is if I unplug my hdd and boot up it reads straight from the cd and I can get into the windows setup screen.
    Thanks.

  • Airport Extreme freezing when accessing ext HDD

    My Airport Extreme keeps dropping the connections when I try to access files on the WD 3TB external HDD connected in the USB port.
    I am able to connect to the internet at all times using either a newly purchased 2012 Mackbook Pro, iPad, iPhone or Windows 7 laptop. But when I try to access my files on the ext HDD, it works 1/10 of the time. I am able to access the drive and partitions, but when I select files, mostly movies (avi & mp4), it will more often then none freeze up and drop the network/internet connection. It will then indicate in the Airport utility that the Airport Extreme is no longer in range and there is no more internet until I disconnect the power from the Airport Extreme, wait a few seconds and reconnect the power. 3 minutes later the Airport Extreme is back on-line and Internet and network are restored. I have had to do this more then 8 times this morning alone.
    The Airport Extreme is currently using firmware 7.6.1.
    Saw many posts dating back to 2008 and have tried changing configs to recommendations, but nothing is working.
    Not sure what to do to correct this, need help.

    Lebruny,
        Did you happen to find the cause of the freez up of you AE?.
    I have mine connected to a WD 2TB, and when I heavily access the drive, I encounter the same problem you described.

  • Finder freezes when accessing an external drive

    I have been using WD 3TB green drives in docks for storage for years. For the last 6 months occasionally I will access one of the drives and the finder freezes up, I will then need to restart the computer. When I try to mount my drive I get a "The disk inserted was not readable by this computer". I do not want to loose the data so I will not initialize the drive. Disk Utility will not even recognize the drive nor will Disk Warrior. In order to save the data I need to use a recovery software. I use Ontrack EasyRecovery Home, it works great but is taxing on the computer and takes a lot of time. So does anybody know why this is happening? Is it a problem with my computer or the manufacturing of the drives?
    Probably a coincidence, but this has only happened to the WD green drives since they changed the packaging from green to yellow.

    Remove maudio, specifically that com.maudio.usb.fasttrackpro.driver.  If you just move that out of /System/Library/Extensions (or if there is an installer) you need to reboot after adding/deleting kext's.
    If no software was installed by you then somehow that external got that com.seagate.SeagateStorageGauge.plist installed in your /Library/LaunchAgents.  If the maudio removal doesn't change anything then this segat launchagent is the next to go.

  • Firefox is freezing when accessing system files

    Whenever I try to upload or simply access my system folders, firefox freezes and does not recover when I attempt to click on any file. This happens for everything from trying to upload pictures to attempting to import my bookmarks.html file. I use Windows 7 and have the latest (3.6.8) version of Firefox.

    You can try this:
    Copy and Paste this code in the Code field in the "Tools > Error Console" and click the "Evaluate" button to cleanup and compress the places.sqlite database file.

  • TS1717 iTunes freezing when accessing Media  folder located on NAS

    I'm running the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7 (64bit)
    this
    My Media is located on a QNAP TS412 NAS.
    I have a desktop machine that accesses the Media without issue.
    However, when I launch iTunes on my laptop after a short while the application will freeze.
    If however, I point iTunes to a media folder on the local hard drive no problems are encountered.  Any ideas?

    Like the poster in the second thread, I'm most disinclined to trash the folder as it has all my music from years of collecting on it!
    The Finder behaviour is like this:
    In Icon view, you can see the two sparsebundles and the Media folder, but clicking on the Media folder causes it to disappear.
    In List view, the Media folder is simply not visible.
    In Column view, the Media folder is visible but clicking on it reverts the focus back to the root level of the drive. The Media folder icon flashes momentarily and reappears.
