Problem with HP Media Centre M7670.UK-a - won't boot after installing an update to Apple Quicktime

I just installed the latest update to Apple Quicktime (after an update message appeared on the screen). When asked if I wanted to re-boot the PC now, I clicked on Yes.
Now the computer won't boot. The power light comes on, then the disk drive light flashes for a moment, then nothing else happens and the PC starts to beep. The beeps are repeating, with 2 short beeps and one long beep. What do the beeps mean?
This question was solved.

Then a  clear CMOS would be the next logical troubleshooting step.
Here is  a link to your motherboard specifications.
The information on clearing CMOS is at the bottom of the document.
This is usually the last step before giving up on a motherboard.
The problem you are facing is motherboard hardware firmware related.

  • IMac won't boot after install of itunes 7.6 with ipod connected

    Just an FYI for anyone that comes across this issue. If you do, just disconnect your
    ipod and the system will boot up.

    Hi Dean, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Unbeknownst to you, you had problems on your HD before the update.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot.
    The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
    Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
    If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.
    An Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc...

  • Windows 200 PC with SP4 won't boot after install of iPod software from CD.

    I installed the iPod software from the CD of my new iPod mini. It requested that I reboot the PC, which I did but it never rebooted. It hung and would not even boot in safe mode. After many attempts I booted to the boot console and when throught the install repair process. The PC will still not boot.
    Is there any way to bring up the PC without having to rebuild it?
    Has anyone found a way to get the PC back to it's original state, without a disk re-format?
    Does Apple have a solution?
    Any comments from Apple Support or their QA team would be of interest

    Last know good does not work. I don't receive any error messages. I did the repair but PC still will not boot. The starting windows bar goes about three quarter of the way to the right and then it just stops. It does this regardless fo which boot mode I choose (ie. safe mode).
    I do not have the iPod plugged in during this process.
    Is there anything else I can do or that we can try from the console command mode?

  • Problem with Windows Media Player since installing Firefox 4.0

    Problems with Window Media Player. When I am using Windows Media Player to view a video from another source I am having problems. When I hit pause and then go back to hit play it does not have any sound. The player is not on mute and it keeps going from pause to play with no sound most times. Please help. Thank-you. I have Windows Vista programs.

    What can I do to get the Windows Media Player to work properly?

  • Premiere Elements cause problems with Windows Media Center while streaming to TV.

    I was having the following problem:
    The audio from the streaming process of a recorded TV show on my HP computer to the remote receivers, a Sony Blu-ray player and/or a Sony Streaming Player, results in the loss of audio signal at exactly 30 seconds from the beginning on either devices. The video continues on as normal.
    A user on the Windows 7 forum had the following possible cause and solution.  His response was as follows:
    I "solved" my issue, at least partially. Turns out for me a codec installed by Adobe Premiere Elements for audio (Main Concept) was causing mfpmp.exe to fail (you should see it getting an appcrash in the event log two or three times as soon as you start playing the media remotely.) This program is used by microsoft for DRM. I went through and one by one remained the various attached (non-microsoft) modules until i found the one that caused the appcrash. I haven't fully figured out if Elements is now negatively effected, but that's for a different forum.
    I tried the quick fix by un-installing Adobe Premiere Elements.  The uninstall solved my problem with Windows Media Center, but I want to re-install the software but I do not want to recreate the problem with Windows Media Center.
    Is there another solution for this problem?

    I reinstalled Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and the above mention problem reoccured.  With a little detective work I was able to determine that the file causing my problem was "mc_dec_dd_ds.ax".  I am not sure what this does to Adobe Premiere Elements 10 since I removed (renamed) the offending file.  A strange side affect, renaming the file did cause an increase volume. Strange.  

  • Compatibility problem with macro media flash active control

    I am getting a message on my screen "compatibility problem with macro media flash active control, it isnt compatible with my version of windows (vista).  How can this be fixed?  why am I suddenly getting it now?  I have the latest Adobe flash player installed.
    Trisha

    the latest flash is probably the problem... it's seems that the latest flash has been causing a boat load of issues. i did a system restore to undo the flash and mozilla upgrades and it's still crashing but not as bad as it was with the upgrades.

    How is your iPhone's display different?
    You can check the model number by  going to Settings/General/About. These are the model numbers for the various 3 GS models;
    MB715LL/A (16 GB Black), MB716LL/A (16 GB White), MB717LL/A (32 GB Black), MB718LL/A (32 GB White), MC555LL/A (8GB)

  • Webcam compatability with XP Media Centre Edition 2005

    Can anyone tell me which webcams are compatable with XP Media Centre Edition 2005.

    Media Centre Edition is laid out so that it is really simple
    and easy to play videos and listen to music. I would stick with XP
    as it works and isn't anywhere near as hungry as Vista.

  • I am trying to upload itunes 10.5, but get a message "There is a problem with this Window Installer Pkg. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  What is it I need to do?

    I am trying to install itunes 10.5, but during the download I get the following message, "There is a problem with this Window Installer Package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personanal or package vendor."  If this is my personal computer and was able to upgrade to the previous version (pre 10.5), why not now?  What is my "package vendor"? And what is it I need to do to fix this?  The message is unclear.  Unfortunately, I deleted my itunes program, thinking that in doing so, 10.5 would finally load.  Now I have no itunes on my computer and unable to sync my iphone.  Help!
    Thanks - Rick

    Hi Rick,
    by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
    Success,
    Peter

    Repair your Apple software update.
    Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
    If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
    START/CONTROL PANEL/Programs n Features/highlight ASU and click REPAIR,
