PCMCIA Hardware Fault - Tecra 750CDT

Hi...
I have two identical Toshiba Tecra 750CDT laptops.
One machine will not recognise when PCMCIA cards are inserted, no
reaction to it whatsoever, no status lights on cards.
On the other machine cards are recognised immediately and work
perfectly.
When I swap the hard drive and WiFi card from the 'good' machine to the
'bad' machine, the bad machine boots normally with seemingly everything
working normally, except for no reaction to the WiFi card, not even a
staus light on the card.
Swap back to the good machine and all works perfectly again.
Ive taken this to mean that there is a hardware fault in the PCMCIA
circuitry of the bad machine.
Can anybody tell me whether there are any protection devices, fuses or
whatever, on laptop PCMCIA circuitry ?
Any suggestions will be gratefully received.

Hi
This unit is about 9 years old and it is not known to me but I recommend you to check all BIOS settings. Maybe you will find something there.

KM2M Combo-L - Hardware Fault DDR Upgrade

Am having problems upgrading RAM on the KM2m Combo-L (MS-6738)
All working perfectly with 1 x 512Mb DDR RAM in DDR Slot 1 (Bank 0 & 1) - soon as I upgrade with second 512Mb/256Mb stick in Slot 2 (Bank 2 & 3), system becomes unstable and crashes unexpectedly in WinXP. All RAM checked in other machines/Slot 1 - OK - Memtest reports no probs. All BIOS Settings normal - all 4 DDR banks are seen OK. Have 3 of these boards - all the same problem. Is this a known hardware fault on second DDR slot?
Specs:
KM2m Combo-L - latest BIOS v1.4
Athlon XP2000+
2 x 512Mb Kingston DDR RAM
1 x Pioneer DVR-R A03 DVD Recorder
1 x Pioneer DVD x16 DVD-ROM
2 x Seagate 120Gb ATA-133 7,200RPM 8MB IDE Drives
Premier PSU 350W MAX:

5V 30A
12V 16A
3.3V + 5V = 200W MAX

Thanks in advance for any help!

Yeah, matching PC266 CL2.5 Kingston - all OK in Slot 1, only prob when I try to use Slot 2

New ipod touch, hardware fault(?)

So,I've bought an ipod touch 4g,8gb on last friday,and I could connect it once to my PC,it was working well.Then on the other day,the accumulator was submerged,I've tried to do something with it,but nothing happens,and it's not even possible to connect it to my pc,nothing happens when I try to do so.I've just tried it with 3 different computers,still the same.Can it be a hardware fault?If it is,is it possible to get a new one instead? :O
I have no idea what to do right now..

To get a computer to see the iPOd try:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
and/or
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Otherwise, as theother poster said, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store or call AppleCare under the provisions of your warranty.

Bought a new 64 GB 4S version, but "About" shows only 13,6 GB. Any suggestions except for hardware fault ??

Solaris 8 and PCMCIA on Toshiba Tecra 520 CDT

I am having problems with my pcmcia services with X86 on my Toshiba Tecra 520 CDT laptop. It will not recognize the network card(s) or any PCMCIA cards for that matter. Do I need to load a specific driver or turn on the PCMCIA service or something to that affect for the PCMCIA slot to work? I have heard that the Toshiba laptop is the most supported laptop model for X86. Could anyone give me some advice or point me to the right website or news group. Please reply or contact me directly at [email protected] Much appreciation!

I believe that PCMCIA is broken in Solaris 8.
I can't seem to get networking to work on my Dell either.
Good Luck,
Mike

Using Dell Latitude D630 with Windows 7 and Adobe CS6 - PCMCIA hardware accelerators?

I have a separate thread going using the hardware accelleration that comes with the Intel Mobile 965 Express Chipset not working
for me, and trying to figure out how to get OpenGL and 3d features of Photoshop CS6 to work.
So, I was thinking maybe a work-around. Are there supported PCMCIA card graphics accelerators that anyone could recommend
that would work with Windows 7 and interface via PCMCIA that meet the requirements to be used with Adobe CS6?

A Dell Latitude 630 isn't enough machine to do what you want to do, I owned one. Geerks.com had a great laptop today for 379.

G550 Freezes Due To Hardware Faults?

Hi Guys, I would appreciate your opinion on this, I have a Lenovo G550 (Model 2958) which regularly freezes, the symptoms are this:
* No blue screen or any failure warning.
* Mouse will not move, and all buttons are non-responsive (requiring forced power off as only option).
* Is not specific to any specific software, can happen with office, or firefox, or no windows open.
* Can happen within 5-10 minutes of start up, or even after hours of functional working.
* Usually happens on warmer days (above 20 degrees C).
The laptop's spec is this:
Bios update 44 (Release Date 2010-04-30) (latest)
2.2Ghz Core 2 Duo,
4GB (DDR3 - 1066Hz) RAM,
500GB HDD
NVIDIA GeForce G210M (512MB) (latest drivers)
Windows 7 Home Premium
I have reinstalled several times and the problem still exists, which leads me to believe it is a hardware issue, most probably something heating up too much perhaps.
The laptop is raised up and plenty of air gets to every surface.
I bought it in February 2010, so the warranty is OK, what will Lenovo likely do regarding: fixing it, can they replace it? Will I have to pay for any hardware fix?
Thanks for your advice :-)

Call customer service. Your laptop needs technical assistance.

Connector/Hardware fault with Ipad 3G/32

I am extremely disappointed and would appreciate any help. I have owned my Ipad for just over 2 weeks and have just landed in Thailand. I had thought this would be the ideal travel companion.
Unfortunately it seems I have a lemon. I am unable to get it recognized on any PC, here is what I have tried:
1. Windows 7 laptop, on all 3 USB ports. Have used the apple cable, as well as an aftermarket griffen cable. In both cases, there is no reaction whatsoever on the PC or Ipad.
2. Have tried on a colleagues laptop as well (also win7) with the same result.
3. I purchased the aftermarket apple wall charger and dock. When connected to the wall, the Ipad indicates 'not charging'.
4. I have reset the ipad as per instructions in other threads. I have even gone so far as to delete all the apps and data (via setting, general, reset).
At the moment it is showing the 'connect to itunes' graphic and i cant get it to connect to anything.
I am really at my wits end. I believe I have read all the threads and kb articles. I have checked device manager to see if its a driver problem.
I can only conclude that my unit is a dud?
As a last resort before returning it I am hoping someone can give me some advise.
One important note is that it seems this behavior started after updating to the 3.2.1 (firmware).
Can anyone help?

I would like to add:
1. I have reinstalled itunes.
2. This same windows laptop has synced and backed up this ipad before (since I have owned it) without fault or issue.

Can DNS errors be a hardware fault

My airport extreme base station keeeps dropping off line due to lost DNS Servers. everytime I make a new call for resolution by changing a web site, the Airport goes offline and has to be redone .. I plugged my laptop directly into the Comcast router and there isn't an apparent problem. The Airport Extreme is tunning the current version of the firmware and my Airport utiility is current on the iMac and MacBook. When I hook everything into a verison wireless hotspot (bypassing the Airport) all connnecitons are fine..
So, is this a Software problem or a Hardware problem?
Thanks for any insight.
-john

I set the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and therer is an initial resolustion, but then it goes south and the airport Utilityy says "disconected" from the Internet.
the basestation alternatively says stuff like No DNS servers, Double NAT..
The status light on the Extreme is Green but the airpotty utility says "disconnected"

N900 hardware fault (mini USB port)

I had been enjoying the N900 for the three weeks since I received it. I didn't run into any of the reboot or other problems. With no warning, however, the mini USB port came undone from inside the device. I already sent the device off for warranty replacement but the warranty isn't going to replace all the settings and data I spent hours to do. It's my own fault for not storing a backup file off the device. Once the mini USB failed, the only option left was bluetooth or infrared to get data off the device but I decided I would just start from scratch instead. Anyway, it looks like I was just unlucky because I havfen't seen anyone else having the same problem. I'm relieved it's not an N97 lens scratch type issue.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

FYI Nokia and N900 users: this is NOT the fault of users. The root cause was poor design design of using a surface mount female USB connector rather than through-hole mount. The reports of incidents are piling up, the majority resulting from casual use soon after purchase.
Someone in Maemo Devices needs to take this seriously. The connector and mount method need to be changed ASAP if they have not already. Don't blame the users; honor the warranty and human decency and replace broken devices.

T440s Touchpad Hardware Fault

Just a query about the touchpad/trackpad on the T440s.
I have found that there is a ~2cm wide column on the very left of the touchpad that does not register a click when depressed. It also feels very spongey and different relative to the rest of the touchpad. As a result it makes general use, and use with the trackpoint extremely difficult as a good percentage of the time a click is not registered in this area.
I was just wondering if the touchpad is infact supposed to be like this and it is a nonissue and just a really terrible feature, and if other people have this issue?
Also would this be something that I would be able to possibly fix myself somehow - taking out the touchpad and putting it back in again for example?

kwibatman,
This could be a hardware issue and I would encourage you to contact service after trying a few updates.
1) We have been releasing a series of new Synaptics drivers - a release on Nov, one on Dec 17th, and a most recent one on Jan 7 here -> http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS034647
2) We have a firmware update for the touchpad here-> http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS039494
Can you apply these and see if the situation improves?
If you still have trouble after this, please give service a call to check out the hardware.
Best regards,
Mark

PCMCIA hardware: "Express Card" or "PC Card" (for external USB 2.0)

Can anyone advise how I might determine the external interface card hardware that is provided with my T43p Thinkpad? I've not used this feature on the machine previously, and do not recognize it from external view.
From the unit itself and original shipping documents, the T43p is model 2687DUU (shipped November 2005).
The packing list does not describe the hardware in detail.
The Service and Troubleshooting guide describes "ExpressCard/PC Card slots" but also says "Some models have the PC Card (Type II or Type III PC Card) slots only.
Device manager hardware report seems non-specific, and I can't tell whether it refers to the reader itself: "Ricoh R/RL/5C476(II) or Compatible CardBus Controller" under "PCMIA" adapters.
The slot has two ejector buttons and measures 54mm wide.
I need to buy an external USB 2.0 interface to support Western Digital external hard drive. An ExpressCard interface is inexpensive, but I would like to be sure that the T43p is built to support it.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks very much for updates. The very slow throughput using the WD software is *extremely* slow. With only a 9.5 Gbyte backup to process, it was only about "80% done" after 7 hours. The problem seems to be with the WD software, since a simple Windows Explorer "copy" from internal hard disk to the WD drive completed a 11 Gbyte (sorry, I wrote 3 Gbyte originally) copy for a single file in about 5 minutes. The latter is indeed about what I would hope for from USB 2.0 (about half of the nominal 480 Mbps maximum).
I found various postings on the web relating to very slow USB backups to the My File product line. The product manual for my unit cites this as a FAQ, as follows:
Q: Why is the data transfer rate slow?
A: Your system may be operating at USB 1.1 speeds due to incorrect driver installation of the USB 2.0 adapter card or a system that does not support USB 2.0. If your system includes a PCI slot, you can achieve Hi-Speed USB transfer rates by installing a USB 2.0 PCI adapter card...
It seems clear that my native USB ports *can* move data to the disk at acceptable rates, but it's not happening in combination with the WD application software. A possible hint is that it seems that transfer rates really nosedive when lots of small files are being moved.
I agree it's a shot in the dark that new USB 2.0 interface will fix the problem - but it seems like an easy shot to take. The real problem might be in the design of the WD backup software, but I have no hope of fixing that. If new ports don't do the trick, I'll probably need to return the My File unit.
Since the WD external drive runs from an AC adapter, I'm not worried about a power shortage. I interpret this set up as not "portable", even though the My FIle is an external drive.

Possible screen hardware fault - three perfect circles look like suction cup marks

I have an iMac 27-inch, mid 2011. I purchased the machine in October 2011.
I have always looked after my screen by protecting it from dust with a light cover but suddenly today I notice three perfect circles - like suction cup outlines. Two of them are identical in size 5cm across sitting side by side. The other one is in the left bottom quadrant and is about 3cm across - looks like there may have been writing across the top arc but is too small to make out.
I am assuming these marks are from the manufacturing/assembly process when the glass was suction-cupped to put onto the machine. Why have they become visible suddenly now nearly 4 years later?
I tried to clean them off with a isopropyl alcohol free wipe but nothing comes off. The circles are also casting a shadow onto the screen contents. There doesn't appear to be any raised surface to these marks. They don't budge. But now I have like a white cloud of where I tried to clean them off when the screen was on and hot. I'm hoping this doesn't last.
What can I do?

Additional note to my above query...
The screen has a large amount of what looks to be condensation - that appears like a big milky cloud - this slowly shrunk and then disappeared after shutting down.
How is there condensation in the centre where the circular suction cup marks have suddenly appeared? Is my screen laminate separating or something?

Why 4s camera back light always deems On? Is this hardware fault?

My phone have camera back light always ON with deem light since i purchase.... i was told this is not normal and i saw others 4S have no deem light. Is this some SW or HW issue? Anyone can help would be much appreciated.

Thought I may as well post some additional photos consisting of my iPad compared to my sisters iPad 4;
Mine is the top iPad, sisters is the bottom iPad.

The camera doesn't capture the full glory of the back-light bleeding, you can just imagine how much worse and more apparent it would be to the human eye!
(With these images, I have enchanced the brightness so it's more apparent)
