Reading problems with MS-8340S

When I use Nero CD Speed to check the CD Quality of my discs, no matter what kind of disc, it gives me a result of over 70.000.000 reading errors (this are damaged areas that are still readable). Similarily, the scandisc feature gives me 100% DAMAGED discs. Now, the media is out of question because every kind of disc, from printed to copyed to auido to data posts the same results. I'm using the latest NERO/Firmware/CD Speed/ATAPI versions, IMAPI is disabled, and the problem persists. Nevertheless, the driver reads this supposedly damaged discs at full speed (48x), so I believe this can be a fake reporting, and that the writer isn't reading any errors, but what can I do to fix this? The only thing I have left is to put the drive on a separate IDE cable, since now shares the same cable with an ATA-133 disc.

Hi,
What is the computer's specification? Have you tried the drive on another machine?

USB card reader problem with T430 laptop (Win 8)

I have a Thinkpad T430, running Windows 8 with 16G memory.
I have recently encountered problems with a USB card reader. I thought the reader was faulty so I bought a new one, but that one fails as well. It makes no difference which socket it is in.
After being plugged in for a few seconds, the 'drives' the reader sets up start to flash in the 'Computer' window - it seems they are continually being disconnected and reconnected.
Disabling USB 3.0 in the BIOS makes no difference. One card reader is USB 2 and the other is USB 3
Changing the power settings so the USB selective suspend is disabled makes no difference.
I am pretty sure that it was OK a month ago when I last used a card reader (the machine is about 2 months old).
What is going on?
Any ideas?
Thanls,
Michael

Card Reader problem with MSI K8T Neo

Hi,
I have the K8T Neo motherboard, and every once and a while my Atech Flash 9 in 1 card reader (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-176-003&depa=0) doesn't power up, thus I can't use it.
What's odd is that all my other USB devices work flawlessly.
The only way I'm able to use the card reader again is to power down my computer and then flip the power switch on the psu, then turn it back on, or unplug the reader from the usb header on the motherboard and plug it back in.
I've noticed other people have had similar issues...
Any ideas what causes this, or any ideas on how to fix this?

Yes, I had the same hanging problems as well with older BIOS versions then 1.7.
But that isn't the problem I'm talking about, the computer always starts up, it's just a matter if the usb reader will work or not.
Maybe MSI has yet to make a BIOS that is compatible with all card readers.

Wierd Problem with MS-8340S CDRW

MSI CDRW MS-8340S using NERO 5580 burns CDR fine (burn image, using bin & cue). Using Imation 700MB at 40X and 16X speeds. The MSI CDRW will NOT read the burned cdr, but the cdr's created can be read in other units (DVD-rom on the same system and on other computers). MS-8340S will read all other cdr's, just won't read CDR's IT creates.
Drive just purchased, mfg. in Sept 2002, firmware 120D.
The same Imation cdr's WILL read if I use Drive Image to make image rather than NERO. My file system is NTFS. I haven't tried super low record speed with NERO. How can the MSI drive write cdr's that it can't read??Should I try a replacement drive? Is it NERO??
Hank S.

Turning off native burning support in XP and all was well.
To disable the XP burning features:
Go to your Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services
Right click the IMAPI CD burning service, select properties and set it to "disabled".
Then go to MyComputer, right click on your CDRW drive, click on properties, click on Recording tab, uncheck Enable recording on this drive.
Fixed the problem!

Print & read problem with Acrobat 7

Hi,
Recently my Acrobat 7 has developed a problem where I cannot open or create a PDF without a Microsoft Word window opening with a coded message. The screen shows a "File Conversion" window which asks me to select either: 1. Windows (Default), 2. MS-DOS or 3. Other Encoding. The rest of the window then shows a list of code. Selecting 1,2, or 3 does nothing.
Any ideas on how I might fix this problem so that I can read and create PDFs again?
Thank you!!!!!

Dear Biker,
Thanks for your email. Since receiving it this morning, I have received the following advice from HP Support and although I appreciate it's not your exact problem, maybe some of it will help.
I note that they suggest adding a Generic Drive for a Deskjet 990c model (even though mine's a Photosmart C46800) but later they mention my model so I suppose you need the 990c drive to make it all work.
One of the other replies I got from the forum was one which said, 'never buy an H.P'. In fact, I'm so worried that H.P's advice will either cock-up my computer completely or change the way it prints 'Word' documents (currently O.K.) that maybe I'll buy a decent one.. Anyway, here's what H.P advised:
STEP 1 Add Generic Driver 990c
1. Click 'Start
2 Click Printers and Faxes'
3 In Printer folder, click 'Add a printer' icon
4 Click Next
5 Select 'Local' and remove the check mark from 'Automaticallhy detect and install my Plug and Play printer
6 Click 'Next'
7 Click 'Next'
8 Select HP from Manufacturer list
9 Select the printer modeol as HP DeskJet 990c from the printer list, and then click Next
10. Select Yes to make this printer the default printer and Click Next to continue
11. Select No to skip the test page and then click Next
12 Click finish to complete the installation.
STEP 2 Configure the port
1 Click Start, then Printers and Faxes
2. Right click on HP Photosmart C4680 All in one printer icon and then selct Properties
3 Select the Ports tab and then check which port is selected from the list of ports. Make a note of the port that is selected
4 Close Window
5 Right click on the HP Deskject 990c printed icon you have installed, then select the ports tab. Select the same port that was selected for the HP Photosmart C4680 printer icon
6 Cick Apply and the OK

Adobe Reader Problem with Accents

I have a pdf document which Reader shows all the accented text incorrectly. It makes the whold document look very bad... I think these characters are in Unicode and Reader is mis-reading them.
Adobe Reader 9.4.6
Windows 7 Pro
Preferences > International > choose language at application startup (but always comes up in English after restarting AR)

I've had a similar problem on Adobe Reader X and I'm not sure if this is the same with 9.4.6 but here's how I fixed it.
Go to Preferences>International>Same as the operating system
This enables you to use the language your keyboard is set to.
If you don't have the keyboard for the language you want and you have Windows, you can right-click the taskbar and go Toolbars>Language Bar. If the toolbar appears on the taskbar, select the little triangle (Options) at the bottom right and go to Settings>Add. From there you should be able to add your language from the list (i.e. French>Keyboard: French) and switch to it from the Language bar by clicking on the language name abbreviation and selecting it from the list.

Data reading problem with Read LVM

Hi
I am acquiring the pressure signals with 6 channels using LabView 7.1. The sampling rate is set at 10kHz. I am saving the data using Write LVM. For post-processing of the data I am using Read LVM function to replay the data. When I saved the data and reopened it using Read LVM, the waveform was different as compared to when I was acquring the data. Both images are shown in online_data.bmp and image_by_read_lvm.bmp. The Read LVM vi has also been attached. The write LVM file size was around 15MB.
I think the problem is with the rate at which read lvm is reading the data.
Any help/suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks
Pramod

Hi Mike
Thanks for your reply.
Please find the write LVM file as an attachment.
As the write LVM file size is 5 MB, it is
not getting attached. Therefore I am attaching the vi code. If you need the write lvm file then can you please give your e-mail id? I need the smooth thin lined waveform instead of
thick waveform. Please let me know if the lvm file is required.

W500 card reader problems- with a wrinkle??

My card reader won't recognize SDHC cards. I have a W500 (4061-BL2) running Win XP Pro, Service Pack 3. I installed the latest drivers for the 4-in-1 reader (Ricoh Multi Card Reader driver 3.64.02 which does show up in the "Add/Remove Programs" listing). Based on reading this forum, I considered KB934428, but, when I tried to install the hotfix, I learned it is not needed with SP3. (I didn't try to install KB923293 which is the other hotfix frequently mentioned for this problem as it appears to be older than the ...428 hotfix??)
Everything appears to be normal in Device Manager.
When I try to insert a Kingston 8GB SDHC card (that I know has pictures on it as I can see the pictures on my Canon camera), my system does recognize the card (under "My Computer", it shows up as "SD/MMC (E", but, when I try to access the card, it only says "The disk is not formatted.. Do you want to format now?".
I know there are 20 other forum posts on this problem, but, mine appears to be somewhat unique with XP SP3.
Like everyone else with this problem, I can read the card just fine with a USB card reader.
Any help will be deeply appreciated! Love the W500 except for this nagging problem as I am really anxious to use the card reader.

I just fixed a co-workers Ricoh 4-in-1 reader by following these instructions
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70881
It says it's for R61 but worked on W500.

AI Buffer Read Problem with PXI-4351

I have a PXI-8105 controller in a PXI-1045
chassis with labview 8.2 installed. I would like to use a PXI-4351
board to measure a thermistor. I am using the sample vi on the ni web page http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/838, but I get an error code -10846 "AI buffer read" after a few acquistions. I am new to Lab view --- what does this mean and how do I fix it?

Well, I don't have ready access to a LV PC and for some very odd reason, my attempt to search for "error code" (and even just plain "error") on the ni website returned 0 hits?!? Strange...
Anyhow, I'll take a guess and offer you an idea for a workaround. Could your error mean that your call to AI Buffer Read times out before the requested # samples have been taken? This kind of error wouldn't be surprising as it's difficult to determine a reasonable timeout value. Based on my own past experience with a 4351 board, I'd say that the whole notion of "sample rate" turns into something of an odd duck.
As I recall, all you can specify is a filter frequency which will establish a ceiling for your actual sample rate. However, the board also has some sort of criteria for signal stability. If you have several different channels to measure which use different input ranges, your actual sample rate can be reduced pretty dramatically. So you might get a few samples per second or a few seconds per sample.
The workaround I used was to always request data that had already been collected and was immediately available. One of the inputs to the AI Buffer Read lets you set some parameters where you can specify that you want to read the most recent sample that's already in the buffer. Granted, this may represent a temperature from a second or two ago, but this lag is not necessarily a major issue for temperature measurements.
Note: in my app, I could query for Temperature any time I wanted, as frequently as I wanted. I would always get data back, but there was no guarantee that I'd get *unique* data back. In other words, if I called it 10 times in a tight loop, I might get the exact same sample # back each of those 10 times.

Problem with diatsant haze in landscapes

Subject should read "Problem with distant haze..."
Typically, its a sunny day and hills etc. in the distance are covered in a slight haze due to moisture in the air. Still photographers use a glass filter to counteract that but I have heard that they do not seem to work in video, for some reason.
If they do, what sort: UV, polarizing, and in the last, circular on not?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
A UV(0) or UV(1) filter would be a good idea to have on your lens at all times, for the reasons outlined by Ian and Al. Both provide a bit of haze reduction, with the UV(1) providing a bit more than the UV(0).
You could also use a Skylight 1A filter. It will provide more haze cutting and won't affect the color temperature of your video.
For a stronger effect you might consider a Tiffen #812 Color Enhancing Filter. It absorbs even more of the blue (thereby cutting haze further), for subjects in the shade improves skin tones and (in my opinion) results in something akin to the vivid saturation of films like Ektachrome VS or the vivid color setting in the Canon Powershot cameras.
Too bad you're not filming in black & white, you could use a #25 Red and cut right through that haze <grin>

Have a problem with Lightroom 5.4. Since the program crashed yesterday it won't launch, it comes up with the message "Lightroom encountered an error when reading its preview cache and needs to quit". " Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem next time it launches". Except that it doesn't, I keep getting the same message and the program closes. Does anyone know what I can do to repair it? Can't back up, can't do anything.

There are dozens of threads in this forum that describe the fix

"there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)

We are getting the following error "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)" and a gray screen appears (Image not viewable) with multiple users. We are using Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05) and (11.0.06). The current workaround is to log off the website and log back in. Once the user logs back in, the pdf will appear. However it occurs anywhere from 2-8 times in a day. Anyone else having this issue or know of another workaround? Any suggestion with how to fix? Please help!!

Hi Valerie,
Please let me know the version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader & operating system installed on your computer?
Also, try this:-
Launch Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
From the menu, choose Edit -> preferences -> General
Uncheck the option for "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
Restart the Adobe Reader and web browser.

Having Problems With The Neo2 ? Read This!!!!

Hi,
i just bought a neo2 motherboard, with a p4 2,6 HT and 512 mb Kingston hyper ram ( 2 peaces of 256, else it won't use the dual bandwith :D)
In the beginning everything seemed fine, until i got some sudden reboots and other vague stuff. I read it could be the SB audigy messing things up. I removed the card and windows Xp pro runs fine now. no more sudden reboots or explorer not resonding crashes.
But, i still had problems with games crashing. I got reboots. After i set the "automatic reboot after crash" to false, i got blue screens or lock-ups in my games.
I wondered what it could be. Then i started to put my videocard ( a radeon 9700 pro 128 mb) in agp 4x mode instead of agp 8x! Now my games run without crashes, but benchmarks are not that high. 4780 marks with 3dmark 2003.
I think i will send msi and Ati a mail concerning this problem. I don't know if it is PSU related. Maybe the videocard demands a little more power in agp 8x mode.
Well, having probs with you're NEO2 ??
remove the sb Audigy and turn the agp back to 4 using smartgart ( it's located in you're display settings screen ).
First i tought it was a PSU related problem, because i swapped my 350 Watt enermax with a Q-tec 400 watt psu. The 400 watt PSU died while i was gaming. Maybe the enermax is the better PSU :D So, it could still be a PSU related problem. Maybe the agp 8x settings demands a lot more from you're psu. Anyway, i'll receive a 550 watt Antec PSU soon, so i can check this out....
Btw. I cant run the motherboard in anything better than "slow" mode. In all other modes Xp won't boot. I haven't tryed it since the AGP is at 4X, but i don't think it will matter.
Regards,
Welcome to the real world NEO :D

Ok.....
i raised the memory voltage setting in the bios from 2.65 to 2.8 and the agp voltage from 1.5 to 1.7
Everything seems fine, but games crash back to the desktop now without an error message or the either lockup.
Whatever i do, i can't make the mobo crash in anything but games!
Btw. the following message caught my attention, when i ran f1 2002 with directx 8.1. Since i have directx 9, i haven't seen it anymore. Maybe because the ati-drivers are made for directx 9....
