PC Alert 4 and Windows XP bluescreens and crashes?

I'm just inquiring as to wether anyone else has had trouble with PC Alert 4?
Is it PC Alert or the newest KT4V-6712 mobo drivers.... which is the culprit?
A few months back, after a routine Live Update (installing the newest versions of my mobo drivers, and PC Alert 4), I began having black screen resets/crashes, and blue screen errors.
Prior to the above mentioned update (running my older mobo drivers and PC Alert 2), my system was fine. No crashes, no blue error screens.
I thought at first it might be the updated AC97 sound drivers, because the crashes seemed to happen when I was in Yahoo voice chat, or I had windows media player running.
Also, it seems that the Live update proggy, when auto installing the drivers, just overwrites the old drivers rather than a proper uninstall of the old, first.
I know this because while installing the new AC 97 drivers 5.620, it hung during install, and I had to restart.
It then showed the new version but also the old version AVRack icon/files, which was weird....
So I tried to uninstall them, thinking it must be a corrupt install.
When I tried to do this, I crashed.
Anyways, after many attempts, I was able to remove them.
I then did a clean install of these new drivers. Still got crashes and blue screens.
So I reformatted my HD, started clean.
Installed the newest drivers for my mobo right from the MSI live update site, including PC Alert 4.
Of course! Still crashed!
So I reformatted HD again! I hate when things are buggy, perhaps you can relate?
I thought I could narrow it down.....
(These crashes always occured when I was running PC Alert - CoolerXP, Yahoo voice chat, and/or windows media player.) So this time I decided to use older AC97 version 5.490 sound drivers. Installed everything else for the mobo the same, and yes, PC Alert 4!
Still crashed!
Hmm, maybe the sound drivers aren't the problem.....
So I uninstalled PC Alert 4.
I thought I'd try this just to see.....
Bingo! Haven't crashed since.
Still might be to soon to tell yet, if PC Alert4 was the BUG?
Still using Yahoo voice chat and windows media player ......no probs!
My CPU runs on average around 44c-47c, so the PC Alert 4-CoolerXP isn't that big a deal. Besides I can check the bios for a more accurate temp.
She doesn't usually get too hot....
And I can always check out 'speedfan'...try it on for a fit!
Beware Beware compatibility gremlins!:bonk:
Oh I forgot to mention, I realise there's a conflict with PC Alert 4 and Fuzzy Logic, but I didn't (and don't) have Fuzzy Logic installed.
Feedback on this would be greeted with appreciation and enthusiastic interest!
merci!

Problem with Java and Windows (Mainly Vista and UAC)

Hi all,
I am having a problem with a program that I've devoloped. The program itself is packaged as a jar and I plan to deploy it across multiple platforms eventually however right now i am only concerned about windows based systems. I have made an installer for a windows baised systems using NSIS to install the software files. I made the installer as I need several java packages to be installed so the program would work (JAI, J3D, JAI ImageIO) and I also require the program to have fileassociations on windows.
I know that this is not what java is about, however the majority of the users will be on windows baised systems so I've decided that OS specific installers is the best option.
During the process I have noticed that there are several key problem with java for this type of application!
The first issue that I have come across is getting file associations to work on java. As a .jar is not an excutable it is not possible to directly associate a filetype with it in java so to overcome this I currently run the program from a .bat files and also the program requires large memory so this also allows me to run the program with -xmx. The batch file that I use is :
<code>
cd PATH TO PROGRAM
start javaw -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -Xmn100M -Xms500M -Xmx1000M -jar "PATH TO PROGRAM\program.jar" %1 -vram 134217728
pause;
</code>
Ok so all this appears to work fine and allows windows to have file associations and start the program and thats all works perfectly but this is a non-ideal solution. Has anyone got any advice on improving this?
The next problem that I have appears to be a problem with Vista and UAC (user access control). When a user installs the program and installs the program into the program files directory I found that the program did not work and kept saying that I did not have access to the files in the current directory. This is a problem as I read and write settings files during program execution.
On a Vista system UAC prevents file write operations into the Program Files directory unless the program has requested elevated status even if the user is a full administrator. The probem is that there appears to be no real way to achieve this under java that I'm aware of...
Has anyone else had this probem and has a suitable solution?
Any advice on these issues would realy be appricated.
Regards
Joey

Ok so i've kinda found a solution, its not ideal but its very good. I found this program called Elevate
A link to the site I got it was
http://www.wintellect.com/cs/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/03/27/elevate-a-process-at-the-command-line-in-vista.aspx
This program allows you start java with a UAC dialog for high access using
Elevate java -jar myjar.jar
This then allows you to have full access using java... I guess it could be dangerous but it does the job.

Incompatibility between JDK 1.4 and Windows XP Fax and Picture Viewer

I have noticed an incompatibility between JPG files that are output from Windows XP Fax and Picture Viewer and read in by JDK 1.4 (or 1.4.1). In particular, when an image is transfered from a digital camera to a Windows XP machine, then rotated and saved in the Windows XP Fax and Picture Viewer, the resulting image file appears with corrupted colors when read and saved by the ImageIO class in JDK 1.4.
Here is my code:
     import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
     import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
     BufferedImage buffImg = ImageIO.read (new File ("in.jpg"));
     ImageIO.write (buffImg, "jpg", new File ("out.jpg"));
I have also output the file with graphics format PNG and seen similar apparent corruption of colors.
This is an image that was loaded onto Windows XP from a digital camera then rotated 90 degrees and saved with the Windows XP Fax and Picture Viewer:
http://www.adigitalsolution.net/pics/verticalOrig.jpg
Here is the same image read and written by JDK 1.4 ImageIO.read() and ImageIO.write():
http://www.adigitalsolution.net/pics/verticalJavaOut.jpg
Note that the colors appear corrupted in the above image.
This is an image copied directly from a Sony Cybershot DSC - P71 digital camera:
http://www.adigitalsolution.net/pics/horizontalOrig.jpg
Here is the same image read and written by JDK 1.4 ImageIO.read() and ImageIO.write():
http://www.adigitalsolution.net/pics/horizontalJavaOut.jpg
It appears fine (brilliant tropical colors).
Note that both images contain the "EXIF" header, which is the JPEG-like format used by many digital cameras. Some may say that the JDK 1.4 spec does not support EXIF, but the image not touched by Windows XP was read successfully. And other image editing programs read in both successfully, such as PaintshopPro and the Mozilla 1.0 web browser. But there is a specific incompatibility with JDK 1.4.
I have reproduced this problem on Windows NT 4 and Red Hat Linux 7.3 using an image file that was saved on Windows XP.
Here is a warning from Nikon about the behavior of Windows XP Fax and Picture Viewer:
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0112/01121402nikonxpwarnings.asp
Does anybody know a workaround?

This is scary and explains why some of my Exif headers are trashed.
I would guess the problem has something to do with XP not writing the file back out 100% true to the JPEG spec.
Really annoying that they do this. They think they can just hack up and change standards that are not their own. Take their FTP client in Windows XP. Talk about a broken client.
My suggestion is to dis-associate jpegs with XP's image and fax viewer. Instead associate them with Mozilla.

[SOLVED] Wireless 802.1x PEAP Windows 7 and Windows 2012 NPS and CA

Hello,
We are in progress of migrating our RADIUS (Windows 2003 R2) and Certificate (Windows 2003 R2) servers to 2012 (R2). This went fine, no problems. After that we have changed
our Wireless controller a Cisco 5508. We have change our certificate from a 1024bits to a 2048bits certificate.
We tested the other certificate functions and that went fine too.
But we experience a problem with wireless 802.1x in combination with Windows 7 machines. We have Windows 8 and 8.1 machines that do not experience this problem and wireless 802.1x?
We recreated the wireless policy but also no success.
We have seen this problem before, with a customer who had a Windows 2008 R2 certificate server and Windows XP machines with wireless 802.1x . Exact the same problem. After
decommissioning the Windows 2008 R2 certificate server and changed it to a Windows 2003 R2 certificate server, there where no problems any more.
It looks like that older versions of Windows do not work with newer certificate servers?
Do we miss something? Can someone confirm this.
We already looked for these forum posts, but with no success

Epson LX-300, Epson FX-890 printers in Windows Server 2008 x 64 and Windows 7 (x32 and x64)

I have the following problema working with RDP connections to Windows 2008 Server (x64) SP2 and Windows 7 Professional (x32 & x64).
I have setup correctly an Epson LX-300, LX-300+, LX-300+II and FX-890 printers in separate computers in Windows 7 (all working under Windows 7 Professional x64 and x32) and they work correctly.
I need to RDP to a Windows 2008 Server SP 2(x64) and once I log in, the Server Operating System recognizes my printer with no problem at all (Redirected Printer), but when I print, the characters and not understandable, since the printed information is blurry.
When I do excatly the same procedure but with a Client with Windows XP installed the printed information is totally clear, so we can determine at least that the printers are working fine.
I understand this should be a driver issue, but i simply can't make it work correctly.
Can anybody help.

Hi,
Since the printer can print the test page, there is no need to collect the Event log. I notice there is no specify driver for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. It seems the default Easy Printer driver doesn’t work properly for these printers.
I suggest you install the Windows Vista driver version on the Server for testing.
LX-300 Impact Printer
LX-300+ Impact Printer
LX-300+ II Impact Printer
If the issue persists, let’s disable Easy Printer for a test.

Link and Windows 8.1 x64 crash

Hello,
I have installed Windows 8.1 (x64) a few days ago but the issue was the same previously on Windows 8.
BlackBerry Link (latest version) installs and launches fine. No issue. I can do whatever I want then close the software without issue.
However, when I go to Windows Event Viewer, it tells me that in fact the application BlackBerryLink.exe crashed (faulting module : ntdll.dll, error : c0x0000005). The error repeats everytime BlackBerry Link starts.
I've formatted my computer but whatever I do the problem persists. Completely uninstalling Link and reinstalling doesn't help either.
Do you have the same behaviour (Windows 8, 8.1 and x64 system) ?
Thanks !

Group Policy Guru? Group Policy and Windows 7 erratic and inconsistant.

(*If you don't feel like reading everything, skip to the bottom two paragraphs for my questions)
I've had a premier call open with MS since August. This week I had a Microsoft Technician in-house. Though we eliminated some possibilities, we're not really closer to a cause or solution.
Every time we work with an expert, I get a different explanation to describe the situation we are viewing.
Quick summery of the issue: We've been using Group Policy to manage most Windows XP and 7 settings for years, but starting the middle of last year, we began having clients with machines where some or all group policies would fail to apply.
These could be long assigned policies, new polices, or changes to policies. It would never affect everyone or even a majority at once, and the resolution is never the same. Sometimes a GPUDPATE /FORCE sometimes fixed automajically the next day,
sometimes (but very rarely) longer.
Troubleshooting History:
What we found in early troubleshooting, that these machines, had errors in Event Viewer for Netlogon, Time-Sync, and Group Policy. The other issue we noticed, was that our GPRESULT /H reports were missing security groups and the denied section was
nothing but SSID's. The first issue pointed me to:
Event ID 5719 and event ID 1129 may be logged when a non-Microsoft DHCP Relay Agent is used
I installed these Hot Fixes. No change to any of the errors in event viewer, or to our Group Policy problems.
Initial work with Premier Support found that Netlogon, Time-Sync, and Group Policy, were failing before loading of the network stack. The suggestion was to apply the group policy setting "Always wait for the network at computer startup and
logon". At the time, this seemed not to work. The policy was set on a test bed of laptops and desktops, and no changes in behavior were seen after 3 days.
Windows 7 Clients intermittently fail to apply group policy at startup
For some time after this, we were collecting GPSVC and NetTrace logs for Premeir Support, trying to document and troubleshoot the problem. Eventually we got fed up and asked our TAM to call in a pro to get this resolved. We were sent an engineer
for 3 days. For three days we banged away on this issue. We verified AD and replication health, we tried numerous fixes and workarounds. I learned 3 different desriptions of how Group Policy works, and in the end we thought we had a workaround
using the "Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" because of a single success late in the day. On day 3 we tried replicating this fix, and quickly realized that the same issue we were having preventing other GPOs to apply,
were also preventing our "fix" GPO from applying. So we went the route of using a registry entry. I also had a problem that even though it was making the process more consistant, it was still taking 3 reboots for a Computer Policy, assigned
to a computer object via Security Group, to fully take affect on a computer.
I used the registry methods in the above article. It didn't work, no sign it was having the same affect the GPO had had.
Our support engineer claimed this was the proper method, but that path wasn't even close in a Windows 7 SP1 registry, and after creating all the keys that were not present, it still didn't work.

We ran out of time, our engineer returned home.
I can understand how these errors indicate a problem applying Group Policy at boot. But to me it doesn't explain why it doesn't correct post boot, and after a GPUDPATE /FORCE and a reboot.
It also doesn't explain why we were working fine for years, then all of a sudden DHCP is being outrun by background services. (By the way logging showed DHCP wasn't significantly delayed, out boot process was actually excellent, health wise.)
Why all of a sudden is this not behaving optimly? No changes to network design or function. No changes to the domain since 2008 R2 was installed in 2011.
Today I'm reading through all these KB's and articles again, and took some time to read:
[Forum FAQ] Common steps to start troubleshooting Group Policy
application and it's links below.
We ran though all of that before and during the 3-day onsite. It's not getting us any closer to the cause or a solution.
I found and begin some deep reading in this link today. It has some additional information I will try to use next week:
Group Policy Basics - Part 3: How Clients Process GPOs
The one unanswered question I have is this. How is group policy supposed to apply to a computer, when that policy is applied to a AD Security Group, in which the computer object is a member?
Before we began having this problem, we would assign a computer GPO, then ask the user to reboot. If it were a user GPO, we'd ask the user to log off, or reboot. Either way, if we allowed a few minutes for AD and FRS replication, the user would
log back in with that new policy in affect. A new imaged machine would boot with all the GPO's linked to that domain and assigned to "Authenticated Users", already in affect. Admin groups would be present in administrators, proxy settings
would be set in Internet Explorer, etc.
Now I'm aked to beleive this was never the case from Premeier Support and Microsoft Engineers. That those policies require the equilent of a "GPUPDATE /FORCE" that was executed by the Local_System account. That 3 reboots may
be nessessary for a group policy to be applied. One for the AD Security Group to be applied. One for the Computer Policy to be applied. And a final one for the policy in the GPO to be applied to Windows.
Can someone confirm or correct this information please? It's imperitive to my troubleshootng.
There's no place like 127.0.0.1

That key is empty on all of my machines I have checked today. Working and problematic alike.
GPRESULT logs, when ran as me, historically would show the group polices applied, denied, and the AD group membership all by name. About 6 months ago I noticed this changed.
Now they show the applied GPO's by name, a few of the denied GPO's by name, most by SID, and only 2 to 3 AD groups, though PowerShell shows all the AD groups assigned. This happens after several AD security and distribution groups are added to the
machine (Radia software distribution uses Dist groups to assign software).
A check showed no groups with long legacy Kerberos keys.
When we make a change to AD Security Group membership, to assign or deny a Group Policy, is usually when we encounter this problem. It will usually fix itself in 24 hours of the machine being left up and running. But no amount of GPUPDATE /FORCE
and rebooting will cause the changes to take affect.
During this time, the Group Policies will show assigned to the computer in the GPRESULT log.
Yesterday I began looking into Spanning Tree configuration on our network being a possible cause for the boot up issues. I'm waiting on responses from our Network group to confirm our configuration.

Dell Audigy 2 and Windows SP3 driver and static problems

SB0243
Ok, Creative you and Dell have left us customer behind and giving us the shaft.
I know you tell us to go to Dell to get drivers, and Dell still has the same driver posted they had when i bought my PC in 2003.
Funny thing is that the only driver i find that work without the static problem is the one from the creative CD from 2003. The only catch is that none of the other sound Apps will install or work with windows SP3. So you end up with a card that has sound without static but only in two speaker mode, no mixer, EAX, CSMM, sound bank, etc... you know all the other stuff.
I have installed Danial K driver at one time and they worked good for months then the static came back one day. Now after a fresh install of windows with SP3 i end up here with only the old driver working with just two speakers.
This is very sad that a big company like creative can not create a driver that works with current software. You need to fire all your programmer and go hire two with all the money you paid everyone else and maybe then these two top programmer might be able to make something that works. This has become a joke in the sound industry.
It was said that this ship is sinking, i think it has sunk at this point, us rats are jumping ship to some other card that works. Most likey it is not going to be from creative.

?Hey, I cant get CMSS to work here, im on windows 7 32bit, wich CMSS version are you using? I cannot open THX Console or EAX Console.

10.5.2 and Windows 2003 Domain and Home Folders

Hello,
This has probably been beaten to death but cant seem to find the answer that I'm looking for.
I can add the mac to the 2003 domain fine with no problems and can get the user authentication fine, access to the network shares and printers.
The question that I had was is there a way to have the mac user's home folder map directly to the user share off the server like you would on a windows side?(ie like the roaming profile)
I have tried all the options for the home folder setup under the directory access utility but it only mounts the share as a share and you have to manually copy over data if you want it to save on the server. Or is there some way to synchronize it when you log off?

Flex and Windows Server 2003 and MSSQL

Hi everyone,
I tried to connect to MSSQL using PHP. I did not get any
error message but the only problem is when I try to test the
problem, I get this error message. Everything works fine on my
local computer "developer", but when I try to program and test on
my Windows Server 2003, I get this error message:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property loginsuccess not found

Can someone please help me, I really need to figure this out
for my company.

a string value is being read checkLogin() when its expecting
an object with property loginsuccess.
maybe its a typo or something in your code.
for example you may have place:
var.loginsuccess == "loginsuccess";
in which it should be:
var == "loginsuccess";

WLC and windows radius issue and another problem

Hi everyone.
We have a problem with a costumer wireless infraestructure which has a WLC using a Windows 2003 radius server. for authentication.
The users can't connet to the SSID from monday. Anything haven't been changed and the configuration is correct.
I think its a client problem because the clients who use Linux can connect.
Any idea?
I have attached a debug dot1x events when a windows client try to connect.
We have another problem with another SSID using local wpa2/pkm/ascii authentication..
This SSID is used for smartphones. The clientes who use Android can connet, the clients who use IPhone can't.
Is this a cospiracy? xD
Thank you for avance.
Best regards

for the debug you attached, I see the client send an EAPOL start message, after it gets the Identity request. It seems to move beyond that, and then
Jul 30 15:36:47.396: 18:3d:a2:65:bd:54 Processing Access-Reject for mobile 18:3d:a2:65:bd:54
I'd take a look at the IAS logs to see why this particular client was rejected.
HTH,
