PM8M-V CMOS needs clearing on every reboot, :censored:?

Hey guys,
Just picked up a MSI board in my feeble attempt to build up a PC from scratch and retire my old Dell. I actually started with an Elitegroup PT800CE-A, since it could also house my CPU, but I had the same problem, and thought the board to be bad. Here's the rundown:
With bare essentials installed (CPU, fansink, RAM, monitor to integrated video port, PSU), I power on the board. Initially, everything gets power, the cpu fan spins, etc. However, the monitor just sits there in standby mode, displaying nothing. This is the case everytime, until I clear the CMOS by switching the jumper. I swap back and power up, and the monitor kicks on, showing the Award BIOS. It gives me "CMOS checksum error", as well as "CPU ratio changed fail." It tells me to change CMOS settings and save, which I do. Upon exiting Setup, it hangs again, putting the monitor back in standby, forcing me to clear CMOS again. I went ahead and hooked up the hard drive and CD-ROM, skipped the errors, and installed Win XP, hoping that I could get online and get a BIOS update that might fix the problem. According to LiveUpdate, though, I have the current version.
I've read on this board and other places that the CMOS battery might be the problem. I've tried taking it out for a minute, and I've even tried swapping it with my known good one from the old PC, but the problem persists. I'm pretty much out of ideas. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I've put the build in my sig.

hi jester,
after clearing the cmos, the error messages that you are facing in the bios are very normal.
cmos checksum error: the default settings in your bios are incorrect, causing your system in capable to boot to OS.
cpu ratio changed failed: your CPU settings in the bios does not match with the phyiscal specifications of your CPU.
Once you have gain access to the bios, do your own bios settings, and make sure that you have enabled the onboard graphics. Once all the required settings are done, save settings to cmos and exit from bios.
after you have exit from the bios, your system will restart. check to see whether the error messages still appear. The messages should not appear at this time if the bios settings are correct and OS should start loading.
Once the OS is loaded and running, shut down your system for 1 minute. power it up again and see whether the problem still persists. if ok, then good for you. but if not ok, then its the battery on your motherboard that is not doing the job. Since u have changed to another good battery, then very likely is the poor battery contact point. RMA your board for another new one.
good luck

Have to reinstall Flash after every reboot.

Windows 7 - IE9 - Flash version 11.0.1.152 - Plugins and OS up to date - ESET Smart Securty 4
I get prompted to install new version of Flash after a reboot, so it happens at least once a day.
I install Flash and it installs just fine and works until the PC boots up again.
I tried some of the following:
- Use Adobe Flash Uninstall program before installing
- Using standalone install program
- Checked ActiveX Filter and it was off...turning it on causes
   this same behavior, but the problem I have has nothing to do with the filter
Not sure when this started, but the user didn't have this problem until recently.
I am using ESET Smart Security 4. On all our systems, and his PC is the only
one that is having a problem. Need some pretty hard evidence before I bother
with uninstalling ESET just to see if that would help.
The part that is really strange...if I go to manage add-on's while it is working,
I see the Flash player there and Adobe's name there and that it is enabled.
After I reboot and go into the add-on manager, Flash is still there and still
enabled, but it now says "Unknown" instead of "Adobe" and is no longer
listed near the other Adobe programs. But then, when I reinstall it, that gets
"fixed" and now says Adobe again. So it almost seems like an IE9 problem
and possibly a corruption problem. No known problems with the PC. I suppose
that reloading the PC from scratch would fix the problem...at least I hope it would,
but I'm also not ready to do major surgery if there is an easier fix.

I also downloaded that Nirsoft tool, and on my (64-bit) system I also only see the ocx and exe registered. But everything works well on my system. So I currently have no other ideas. Hopefully someone from the Adobe team will have a look at this topic.

Can I restore the computer after every reboot?

Hi!
I am renting a place for weekend getaway and would like to provide a fully working iMac. That said, I don't want every week to go there and fix the mac if something go bad or user mess up the computer, install virus and such.
I stayed at the DoubleTree Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam. They had an Imac in the room that, at every reboot, wiped out what you had done and went back to your initial state.
That is EXACTLY what I am looking for with minor tweek. I would like to be able to remote-trigger the restore via the web. The process need to be virus proof.
Any super wiz can walk me trough how I can do such a thing on my iMac? I am ready to pay for consulting if needed.
And if by any chance you know a software that also do it for PC, please tell me as I include a 3x 27 inchs screen / SSD Raid-0 fully rig gaming pc in the weekend rent. =)
Bests!
- Andrea
PS: Sorry for my english.

Thank you!
But the Guess account can be wipe automatically? How about if they install and app? Or install documents on the harddrive?
I need to clean all that, no one knows what they will leave on the computer and the next person to rent the place could have some surprise. =)
On the DoubleTree, I wasnt limited to install my app and do my work, wich was great. But as soon as I reboot, everything was gone. (Ram disk??)

Synaptics Touchpad Tap Scroll settings changed back to defaults on every reboot. Windows 10

After the Windows 10 upgrade my Synaptics Touchpad setings seem to be reset to factory defaults on every reboot. I go in and change to deselect Tap and Scroll gesture options, save, and everything works as expected. If I reboot my pc... all of my changes are erased. I go to Start >Settings > Mouse and Touchpad > Additional Mouse Options > Device Settings > Settings Right after boot: MultiFinger Gestures (selected) Scrolling (deselected) Tapping (selected) Buttons (selected) After change manually and saved:
MultiFinger Gestures (deselected) Scrolling (deselected) Tapping (deselected) Buttons (selected) Rebooted again... and back to initial defaults (Arg!!!) Can anyone suggest a fix?

Hello! I just wanted to share a solution to this issue. I've been having this issue ever since I started the Windows 10 insider program so it's sad that Microsoft didn't fix it before release. Anyway let's get started! The first thing you will want to do is uninstall the Synaptics Driver. Right click on the start button and click programs and features. Find the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver and uninstall it. You will eventually need to restart your PC but do not do that yet otherwise it will just reinstall itself. Next your going to want to Hide the update from Windows Update. To do this on Windows 10 you need to download a tool which can be found here. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930 Run the tool it will begin detecting problems and searching for updates. You will get two options, Hide Updates or Show hidden updates. Click on Hide updates and on the list you will see the Synaptics Driver, place a checkmark on it and then click next. Let the wizard finish and you've successfully hidden the Synaptics pointing device driver. Next open settings and click on Update & security, click recovery on your left, and then click restart now under advanced startup. Next click on troubleshoot. Then at the choose an option screen, click advanced options, click on startup settings, and click restart. Once your computer restarts you'll see startup settings. Press the number 7 to disable driver signature enforcement. Your computer will now boot up. Login and open your web browser and go to this link http://www.synaptics.com/en/drivers.php Download the latest synaptic's driver for Windows 8 and install it. Once installed, you maybe prompted to reboot so go ahead and reboot the computer. After that, go into your mouse settings and configure your touchpad to your liking. You will not have to worry about losing your settings after restarting the pc anymore. I suggest keeping the tool that allows you to hide or show hidden updates as it is quite handy.
Summary:
1.) Uninstall the Synaptics Driver
2.) Hide the Driver Update for Synaptics using this tool: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930
3.) Go to Settings, Update & security, recovery, advanced start [restart now]
4.) Click troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings [restart now]
5.) Press the number 7 to disable driver signature enforcement
6.) Download the latest synaptic's driver for Windows 8 from the website. http://www.synaptics.com/en/drivers.php
7.) Reboot the computer if necessary.
8.) Configure your mouse settings to your liking.

Firewall resets rules on every reboot

Hello folks!
Not so long time ago, I had a problem with my FW, which I solved by flushing the rules from the console - solved my issue temporarily.
Whether the FW is turn on or off, when I run nmap, it renders all my running services as being 'filtered'. So, what I do on every reboot is to first start the console and run the ipfw flush, in order to fix this - on every reboot.
Once again - the state of the FW is of no difference.
No third party FW app running, such as waterroof etc; everything updated. Haven't played with the kext files, basically absolutely nothing. Cant remember the last time I installed something new - I am just using it as it is and found out about this when a need arose to access my stuff remotely, as well as sharing in an ethernet network.
Hope someone can see why s this happening. Thank you for reading.

The problem was solved.
What happened is that my iPhoto Folder is located on an external hard drive, nad it seems that by the time the computer OS X loads the external hard Drive is not running yet (differentely from the previous OS version).
To solve the problem, I copied the picture I wanted to use as background into my local hard drive, and then I loaded it as background !
Thanks for the help.

Iphone stuck at apple logo after every reboot?

I came to know d solution of first holding home and sleep button then press + button but why is it happening after every reboot i am doing?help

Hi kstbespoo,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone won't get past the Apple Logo even after a reset.
If so, you may need to restore the iPhone with iTunes. Note you should have a good backup.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
5. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
6. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Best Regards,

Keyboard Pairing On Every Reboot

Hi,
I know there are a LOT of similar posts on this but I can't seem to find one that addresses the issue of the OS requesting I pair the keyboard after every reboot. I have the logitec edge and it works beautifully once set up. I have to press the discover button and re-pair every time, though. I know, I could have bigger problems but it's still a big of a nuisance. The magic mouse paired on first boot up and never needed to be repaired after a reboot.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Perhaps you misconstrue my suggestion.
I am not suggesting to install grub which the user has done and I assume he corrects the grub failure at boot prompt in order to boot. If he does this, the grub will be corrected for that boot-up only and will fail when rebooting.
My advice was to fix the /etc/boot/grub entry while he is booted to reflect the same fixes he made in order to boot.
Perhaps I have misinterpreted what the user meant when he skipped all the details and reported that grub would fail upon reboot every time.
Thus, grub repair entries at prompt do not become permanent until /etc/boot/grub has been modified accordingly.

You can restore the phone.
Turn the phone off.
Once the phone is off, hold the home button and don't let go.
Press the power button while still holding the home button.
You should see 'Connect to Itunes' on the screen.

How to do crystal reports in bi-7 i need clear steps

how to do crystal reports in bi-7 i need clear steps

Hi,
Please read the following documents.
I am sure that this is going to help you in creating crystal reports.
Regards,
Subha
Pls grant me points if it is found useful
Use
The Reporting Agent allows you to precalculate BEx queries (as useful queries) for Crystal reports in the background. This is a device used to improve system performance when executing Crystal reports.
Prerequisites
·        In the BEx Query Designer, you have defined a useful query for Crystal Reports and determined variables for the required characteristics.
·        You may want to apply a filter when precalculating this useful query using a control query (see Parameter Filtering in the section below). In this case, you need to have created an additional suitable query in the BEx Query Designer.
The associate variable must have the type Changeable with Query Navigation. Other variables can have any type.
Procedure
       1.      Choose the REPORTING_AGENT transaction code.
       2.      Select Precalculating Crystal Reports Queries and choose Execute.
       3.      Navigate to the required query in the left-hand Reporting Agent Settings tree.
       4.      You have the following options for creating a new setting:
-         Choose New Setting from the context menu.
-         Choose Create New Setting.
The New Reporting Agent Setting dialog box appears.
       5.      Enter a technical name and a description.
The following information is displayed on the General tab page:
-         The functional area of the setting is Precalculation of Crystal Reports Queries.
-         Information about the query for which you are creating a setting is shown under the Query group header (description, technical name, InfoProvider).
-         After the setting has been saved for the first time, the system displays details of the last person who changed the setting and the time this change was made, under the Last Changed On/By group header.
-         Under the Setting is Used in Packages group header, the system displays information about the packages in which the setting is used, and how they are scheduled. This information can only be displayed if you have defined the setting and assigned one or more scheduling packages to it.
       6.      Choose the Parameters tab page.
       7.      Determine whether precalculation of the Crystal Reports queries are to be parameterized using a filter and using variants.
For more information and recommendations for choosing parameters in a straightforward example, see Parameterizing Crystal Reports Queries Setting.
Filtering Parameters
No Filters
When you do not want to use a control query to precalculate variables, choose No Filter.
You can combine this option with parameterization using Variables (see below).
Explicitly Using Query Result
If you want to use a control query when filtering, choose Explicitly Using Query Result. You can now make entries in the Control Query and Variants fields.
Specify the technical name of the control query. Input help is available. After you save your entries, the system updates the information according to your selections.
You only need to specify a variant when the control query contains input-ready mandatory variables. This does not happen very often, however.
You can combine this option with parameterization using Variables (see below).
Parameter Variants
After making your setting for filtering a parameter, you can process variant for the individual characteristic values of the variables set in the useful query.
Note: The variable screen only offers such variables when they have not already been filled by the control query. (This can also include variables of type Changeable with Query Navigation, as long as they arent filled by the query).
You can choose from the following functions:
Create a Variant
A dialog box appears in which you can choose values for the SAP variables used in the useful query, in the Query Selection area. Input help is available for those InfoObjects for which SAP variables have been created.
Enter the required data.
Choose .
Change Variants
Delete Variants
If you have already created one or more variants, the system lists these in the lower part of the screen. Choose the variants you want to change or delete and choose the appropriate function.

Prevent the Internet Security Suite from scanning after every reboot

My Verizon Internet Security Suite is evidently set to scan everything after every reboot of the computer. My computer is rather slow anyway. But that ties up all the resources for about 15 minutes whenever I reboot the computer. It keeps tabs on things in real time. It's not necessary to scan after every reboot. Can I turn that setting OFF?

Hi Hermhart, Yes there should be an option to set that to off. try this link to see if this helps & let us know thanks Brett.

Hi Eric Ferguson,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
Best of luck,
Mario

Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

"Application opened for the first time" warning after every reboot

Hello, I have a problem with Lion 10.7.5. The system does not remember that I already opened applications before. After every reboot, every time I open an application it displays the warning as if it's the first time I'm opening it. Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

In my case, the problem disappeared after I installed the 10.7.5 supplemental update.
