PC no longer starts, possible CPU failure?

My 875p Neo used to work fine, then suddently stopped working. Now when you give power to the box the set of D-Bracket LEDs are all showing red. (they initially flash briefly all green, then go red). No beep from speaker at all. Clearing the BIOS similar has no effect.
In checking the manual, 4 red LEDs mean a possible CPU failure. So I have tried reseating the CPU and now replacing it for a new one (3Ghz P4). Neither having any effect.
Is this likely that both of the CPU's had died (the 2nd one being brand new), or a m'board failure? Any help before I return the m'baord welcome.
Rest of machine is running pair of 120Gb RAID1 drives, + 9600XT graphics card.
regards
Al

Well I have to say that the Chances of Having 2 P4's that are Faulty is Pretty Slim Indeed . I assume that you have Checked the Powersupply and all of the Connections mainly the 20 Pin Main Connector and the 4 Pin CPU Connection?....I would try another PSU (Borrow one) Before Returning the Board..Please tell us What Brand and the Specs of your PSU ......Sean

MacBook No Longer Starts

This is going to be a long one, so please bear with me.
I have a macbook, an original one (purchased May 2006), and have had many problems (hardware and software). My latest problem started when I put on the OSX.4.10 update. After the update it will no longer start ... it just hangs at the white apple screen (I've left it on for over 20 minutes).
As I've said, I've had many previous problems so I decide to just reimage OSX. I have another mac and connect it via target disk mode, but some directories take a long time to list, and sometimes completely hangs the host computer. Each target disk mode restart allows me to access different folders, so once I finally get my stuff backed up, I stick in the install disk.
The install disk starts fine but when it gets to the point of which destination to install, nothing is listed. So I open disk utility and run verify disk it says "invalid node structure" and "the volume needs to be repaired", but it also presents a modal dialog that says "first aid failed" and "the underlying task reported failure on exit". When I proceed and run repair disk it gives the same error.
So I read around and learn about fsck so I start the terminal, run the fsck as described here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
It doesn't do anything ... as if I just pressed enter at the prompt, it immediately returns. I just restate that at this point am at the main OSX install and using the utilities. The hard disk will not mount at all.
So what is going on? Is my disk dead and it is just a coincidence it happened after the update? What are my options?
And I should mention that I'm a software engineer and although it is certainly possible I missed something obvious, I've been repairing computers for many years.
Thanks for reading!

If you are logging into this drive as an external hard drive (which you are when you connect it via firewire to another computer) and you cannot pull up things like the directory listing then it is hardware because you are using a working OS on the second computer and just trying to read the bits of data. The data is corrupt and majority of times it is corrupt due to hardware and not software.

Dv7-1135nr cpu failure?

I am having a problem with my hp pavilion dv7-1135nr with Windows 7 64 bit. I'll start from the point that it started having issues.
My wife had been telling me that he laptop had been overheating for some time, but I attributed it to the fact that she usually was using it while lying across the bed with the fan smothered in blanket. Then it got to the point that it would shut down all of a sudden. We discussed ways to counteract the overheating (never thought to take it apart and clean the fan and cooling vents though). Then the battery began to not hold a charge and she could only use the laptop if it was plugged in. Then that became unpredictable - sometimes it would turn on, sometimes not. Then it got to where the laptop wouldn't turn on at all, but the charge indicator light would be lit with the charger plugged in. Then one day, no charge indicator light, so I tested the charger and it was fried. I bought a new charger and battery. I charged the laptop, but when I turned it on...
- Power up
- All standard LED indicators light up
- Screen stays blank
- Fan blows for 3 seconds and DVD drive is accessed
- Silent for the next 10 seconds or so until the fan starts up again and CAPS and NUM LOCK lights blink 3 times simultaneously, then don't blink for 2 seconds, then blink 3 times again and this continues...
I tried rebooting, tried to enter bios on startup, I tried fn + f4, fn + f5, Windows logo, etc., but to no avail.
I researched possible problems and solutions online and concluded that the issue was a fried motherboard. I bought a refurbished replacement and after I installed it - nothing changed! Same as before.
I realize that the refurbished motherboard could be defective, but I started researching things related to a bad cpu (after all, it had been overheating for awhile and when I switched out motherboards, the cooling vents were packed full of dust). I stumbled upon a very similar issue on your support forum - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/forums/mobileforumtopicpage/board-id/Hardware/thread-id/56653 - but the posts never concluded with a solution.
I tried what was suggested by the provost Erico:
"Chances are that you have a dead system board. CPUs just don't die very often.
Have you tried a hard reset?
Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
press and hold the power button for more than fifteen seconds.
plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now)
press the power button
Best regards,
erico"
This didn't solve the problem. So I tried something else that was suggested by erico:
"Yours is one of the rare notebooks that have an easily removable CMOS battery.
Check the Service & Maintenence guide (page 63) for istructions on removing it. It is worthwhile doing this to reset/clear CMOS before doing anything else. Remove it and all other power sources, press the power button for a few seconds. replace the CMOS battery (or leave it out) and use the power adapter to see if the beast will boot up."
That didn't work either. I tested the CMOS battery and it's good. I checked the hard drive on my pc, it's good. So, it seems that the only possible problems are:
CPU
RAM
Motherboard
LCD display
So, that's where I am right now. I'm leaning towards the problem being a fried CPU, but I'm afraid to spend more $ on something that might not be the issue. What do you think the problem is? What are your suggestions for diagnosing the problem? Thanks for your time and effort on this.
Forever grateful,
Jeremy

Hi there @chiarcher
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
I understand that your computer is no longer starting and you are seeing a repeating pattern of flashing LEDs. I am happy to help with this.
As it happens your computer is telling you what is wrong with it. HP Notebook PCs - Computer does not start and the LEDs blink or the computer beeps
From that page you will find a table including: LEDs blink 3 times Memory Module error not functional
The same page includes some things to try to test. It could be one or both memory modules, or the slots on the board that are the problem.
Let me know how it goes, just read though the section on the memory error and see if you can isolate it.

Unacceptable cloud! Keep CS 6 alive as long as possible!

Since we got notice, what Adobe did with it´s license model, my colleagues and partner-companies discussed how to go on with that in the future.
We are all of the same opinion, that this is not acceptable.
As Adobe knows exactly how to play Monopoly - we feel, that they "force us in their jailcloud" model with no way out.
They know exactly that they have a nearly standalone situation in a few business-fields. E.g. Acrobat, AE, InDesign...
And they also know, that, if they once have us in jail, we can´t come out without losing full access to our files (no subscription - no software - no opening of files!)
No Buy-out solution from Adobe, which makes it possible to have real access to your files after quitting subscription.
We had a look to many forums around the web & Adobe itself, and we can see that nearly the whole User Community doesn´t want that kind of distribution.
Only a few (mostly Newcomers) are Pro Cloud.
Totaly different situation from that Adobe want´s to tell us (...and the market).
By the side: Nobody understands, why there isn´t a option to get the "cool" cloud OR not (...pay once and lifetime usage - like in the past!).
So - as nobody wants that - the cause must be: Earn money.
No word from Adobe about that. Only Marketing Blablabla about the future of cloud-working Blablabla...
(Not one serious statement! And which really professional company hasn´t it´s own cloud? And why one more cloud from one more sniffing comp.)
And most of the PRO-Voices didn´t check already, what this model is, when you think it to the end.
As Adobe is getting more and more arrogant in the last years, we are convinced that the only little chance to make Adobe step back, is, that they see their income flow down.
(I believe these self loving marketing gurus won´t ever have a look here)
So our partnership-network decided, that NO ONE will jump on the cloud-jail-train.
It´s no question, that Adobe will make files from CC-Version incompatible to that ones of CS6 at the start of new features in june or in a very short timeframe afterwards.
They want to press their cloud into the market as you can see by their methods... Really difficult to find the Selling-Page of CS6.
Trouble in workflow will be, that if one jumps into Adobes jail, others must follow, if they want to use the CC-files from others afterwards.
(We know that from past - A new Version of InDesign was never directly compatible to it´s last version for example)
So the best way to let Adobe feel, what we are thinking about it´s politics is, that as many users as possible decide to do the same.
KEEP YOUR CS 6 ALIVE AS LONG AS POSSIBLE - DON´T SUBSCRIBE TO THE CLOUD!
I also hope that other competitors will see their chance.
Trust is away. A company which changes it´s distribution such radical will make radical changes in other fields too.
And Adobe: Stop telling us here, that your cloud-system is cool in any way!!!
The price was never a matter. But freedom of choice, compatibility and access to my files archive is!
I - as a ever up to date paying long time user/> 20 yrs - am deeply disappointed!
Do these guys understand our questions and needs?:
http://youtu.be/78yigV0GYGQ
Any answer / statement here?
Nachricht geändert durch rainschub

And...
4.5 stars at the product side resonanz!?
Only & unique at Adobe.
Where ever I look to forums all over the web nearly 85 - 90% of the users disagree with Adobes new subsribtion politics.
I think these product-pages are strictly cencored.
Also a 2 days old post I made isn´t visible.
Great pushing products!

HP Touchsmart tx2 1015au CPU failure

My computer is flashing once followed by a pause and then continues with this pattern. I understand this means CPU failure. This is the second time this has happened. I managed to get it fixed last time as it was under warranty. Unfortunately this time i have missed the warranty timeframe by a month. I would like to replace the cpu myself but I'm not sure what part (brand, product number etc) to get.
Can anyone help?
also if you know of a good youtube video that shows how to replace it that would be great.
I will be buying a new laptop but would like to get the data off this one. If there is another way to get it ( put the hard drive into another computer? - not sure if this is what stores all the data and if this is possible) any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

You don't need to replace the CPU if all you want is to get your data. You can remove the harddrive and get a SATA connection and access the harddrive as you would an external harddrive (via USB)

MacBook pro no longer starts after a month of kernel panics. What to do?

After about a month of kernel panics, my Mac crashed one more time and will no longer start. It sits at a black screen and just beeps, sometimes once, three times or more. I've been waiting for a friend to bring me an osx startup disk so I can fix it from the disk utility, but in the meantime I've been avoiding suspect programs as well as starting the computer holding command + s and typing /sbin/fcsk fy as many people have told me, and each time it said my hard drive was all right. My friend is coming back this week with the disk, but I am afraid it will be impossible even to boot from that. Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't have apple care or a warranty so going to the nearest apple store (one hour away) or the nearest servicer (a few minutes away) doesn't seem good. What should I do? I'm also slightly worried because I installed a firmware update not long before the panics started, to get around the region limitations of the DVD drive. I'm hoping this didn't cause any problems, since these panics seem to be related to RAM but the timing is just too convenient. Could this be a factor?

Thanks again BDAqua, and sorry for the long delay between reponses. The computer's been out of sight and out of mind for me the past few weeks, but my wife reminded meabiut it this morning.
So I tried the repair disk function within disk utility on the install disc, and everything seemed to be ok. I got a message in green that says "the volume Jeffs OW Mac appears to be ok." And then "Volume repair complete." I also noticed that the capicity of the drive appeared to be 119.69 GB and the available space 119.61 GB, which I guess meant the drive was completely empty but working.
So I tried once again to restore from my time machine backup, and wonder of all wonders, it worked this time! Two hours of restoration later, I'm writing to you now from the restored computer, and my wife is thrilled (and thinks I'm a genius!). So thank you thank you thank you for taking the time to walk me through the steps! I really appreciate it!
But now we're afraid to try again to upgrade to Snow Leopard. Do you think there's any reason trying again would throw the computer into another state of confusion, flux, and ultimately disaster, or should I just give it a shot? It's a 2009 Macbook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, with 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, running OS X 10.5.8. Perhaps it just can't handle the new software?
All the best, and thanks so much again!
Jeff

ITunes no longer starting automatically with iPhone

I have an iPhone 4S. Running iTunes 11.0.4.4 on Windows 7.
iTunes used to start automatically when I plugged in my phone as it was set to do.
have not changed the settings, and that box is still checked but now iTunes no longer starts automatically.
When I manually start iTunes, it detects my phone as normal.
When I first plug in the phone, the PC detects it and gives me the Windows dialog box asking what I want to do with the device.
I've unchecked the box, saved that, and rechecked with no changes.

HP Pavilion dv7-6b03sg does no longer start

The laptop of my daughter does no longer start. It does not react at all. When connected to the power adapter the LED next to the power plug of the laptop is white, if the battery is not inserted and yellow, if the battery is inserted.
All other LEDs don´t react at all.
Hardware reset did not help.
Any idea about the reason?

Dead motherboard. Sorry.

Plugging in camera no longer starts iPhoto

Hello,
Recently I found that plugging in my Canon S2 IS no longer starts iPhoto.
I see that in System Profiler, the camera shows up as a USB device, but Image Capture does not show that the camera is plugged in.
I have tried to:
- Use a card reader (which used to open iPhoto),
- Remove Image Capture and iPhoto .plist files,
- Use a different USB port,
- Plug in the camera when a different user is logged in,
- Recharged camera batteries,
- iPhoto repair (Shift+Option on start)
- Try a different, new SD card,
none of which starts iPhoto.
My current workaround is to use a card reader, manually mount the card with Disk Utility, start iPhoto, and manually import files. Not ideal.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
PowerMac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Thanks for the suggestion, but the Image Capture setting was always set to open iPhoto (left that bit out of the original description).
As an experiment, I changed the option to open Image Capture, closed Image Capture, then plugged in the camera. Nothing happened. I then changed the option back to use "iPhoto".
Image Capture displays "No Image Capture device connected." even when the camera is pluggeed in.
PowerMac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Found my solution for my long start up. but more questions

When I first upgraded to 10.5 I had this problem (long start-up times and the long blue screen), did a clean install and all was good.
A few days ago it happened again all of a sudden. I did an archive and install, all was good.
It did it again today [:(] so I went about to try and troubleshoot it.
*Come to find out when my iPod mini is plugged in i get the slow start. when I unplug it and restart its fine. If its plugged in during startup it goes slow, as soon as I unplug the iPod mini from the USB port it loads right up.
Anyone know why that is?

Thanks for the reply. Thats what I figured. I've all ready fixed itunes so it wont open when the ipod is connected. But the problem remains.
I also just noticed that when its plugged in during startup I do not get the startup chime. I also tried it in different USB ports (between the two on the front) which had the same effect.
Also it does not matter if the ipod mini is on the charger. Same effect with just the empty dock plugged in. Know why that is? Could it be the dock is bad?

Xfce4 no longer starts from kdm [SOLVED]

I have somehow borked my Xfce4 setup. I've switched back and forth a few times between Xfce4 in /extra and Xfce4-svn. Somewhere I've done something so that I can no longer start Xfce4 from kdm. Instead, I have to open a terminal and manually do "startxfce4".
When I try to launch xfce4 from kdm, I get this segfault message:
xfce4-session[8818]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f92e95008a2
sp 00007ffff51bcc80 error 4 in libc-2.9.so[7f92e9461000+14a000]
I've done all kinds of manipulations of my ~/.config/xfce4 and ~/.config/xfce4-session files, including toying with permissions and even zapping them altogether.
I've also uninstalled xfce4 entirely, then reinstalled.
And I've uninstalled xfce4-svn entirely, then reinstalled.
I've reinstalled glibc, thinking that there might be a conflict, and I rebuilt xfce4-session from abs. No go.
My other DE (KDE4) and wm (fluxbox) start fine from kdm.
FWIW, this is all that's in my ~/.xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
#~/.xinitrc
exec startxfce4
Here's my ~/.xsession:
#!/bin/sh
# ~/.xsession
# Executed by xdm/gdm/kdm at login
/bin/bash --login -i ~/.xinitrc
What am I missing?
Last edited by dhave (2009-01-01 15:25:18)

Solved, finally.
Following suggestions from Allan (mod), I deleted these files, then restarted:
~/.config/xfce4
~/.config/xfce4-session
~/.cache/xfce4
Thanks!
right again. When I followed Allan's suggestion, I didn't simultaneously delete . I had deleted them before, but to get a really fresh start, I needed to delete all of them at once before restarting.

Adobe AAM no longer starts ...

I have CC (Photoshop only), but since installing the CC manager, AAM no longer starts.
If I click the AAM shortcut, I get the CC manager.
I tried to un-install AAM, but could not find it in the list of programs to un-install (Windows 7 64bit).
I removed the OOBD folder containing AAM and re-downloaded and re-installed AAM. That installed a shortcut to AAM on my desktop again (I had deleted the previous shortcut). It definitely points to AAM (See below), but when I click it up comes the CC manager.
I CAN start AAM by opening Photoshop-CC, and going to "Help | Updates" -- seems a bit of a round-about way to get AAM???
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDapp.exe" --appletID=CCM_UI --appletVersion=1.0 --workflow=CCM_workflow_launch

Hi Dennis Smith,
CC desktop is actually the update for the Adobe application manager.
This Creative cloud desktop tool has the same ( infact some more) features as Adobe application manager.
Please let us know incase if you are facing any problem using Creative cloud desktop.
Thanks

Most of us users (read many threads since May, 7 - nearly 85%) don´t like the cloud only software distribution model to which Adobe has changed.
And no one at Adobe can tell us why this is not longer optional as it was before.
So, if there is no real cause for that - it must be making money for Adobe.
They want to pay us lifetime month for month (else we will lose the full access to our work - no buy-out model plant).
So I please you:
Keep your CS6 Version alive as long as possible.
Talk with your business-partners and discuss the situation and future workflows.
Seeing their stock price sinking is the only way Adobe will recognize.
Their users voices obviously not!

At the moment the stock price does not look to be in jeopardy. It's following a multi-month trend of slight increase.

PC no longer starts, possible CPU failure?
