Reboot when cold booting

Hi.
I encrypted my MBP harddrive with the new FileVault feature. Recently my MBP developed an issue where it would hang a while on the spinner when cold booting, then just reboot - and then boot just fine.
This requires me to type in my decryption password two times. Doesn't seem healthy. I tried restoring file permissions from Disk Utility but this didn't help.
Do you know what is causing this and perhaps how I could fix it?

It seems to be a problem with paralles desktop.

FileVault enabled; reboot on cold boot

I enabled FileVault on my 2011 MBP 15. The following sequence occurs when I perform a cold boot:
Power on; no issues
Login screen appears and I enter my password
Hangs for a bit with the grey lined wheel spinning
System reboots
Login screen appears and I enter my password
OS X Lion loads without issue
Any ideas?

I think I've worked it out... I was running the laptop on mains power only with battery removed. Tried it with the battery installed and problem disappears, it must provide extra power at startup to spin up the HD. Laptop AC adaptor is 200W though, would have thought this would be enough...

WCS Access Point Reboot versus Cold Boot

I'm aware of the process an LWAP AP goes through when a cold boot is performed, specifically dealing with 1130 access points. I've noticed that when using the reboot command in WCS, the process is much shorter than a cold boot (unplugging the AP from power and network and then plugging everything back in).
So the question is - what is the difference between the reboot command in WCS and performing a cold boot? Does the AP retain some information during a reboot and therefore not require as much time to boot up?
Thanks for any help...

You can restart the access point by one of the following mehtods
1. Remove the power and replug the power cable
2. Using the CLI in the ap prompt type boot command. i.e [ap:boot]
3. In the Web interface use the System Configuration Setup page to restart the access point. Click Warm Restart System Now to perform a warm restart of the access point. A warm restart reboots the access point. Click Cold Restart System Now to perform a cold restart of the access point. A cold restart is the equivalent of removing and then reapplying power for the access point.

Satellit Pro L10 won't cold boot

I have a Satllite Pro L10. When it is fully shut down, the system doesn't always boot. If it is set tostand by, then it seem to restert without a proble, but cold booting is a hit and miss affair. It seems that it will often start if you press the on/off key once, then leave the unit for a few minutes then try again, but that might be luck and have no real significance.
I downloaded thelatest bios updates but this has not affected it at all

Thanks for your reply, it happens when on battery or on Mains. It only happens when the unit has been shut down. If it is on standby, then it powers on perfectly!
I saw there were some issues on other models with this sort of incident, but not on the L10, so wondered if there was a known problem with the way the power/on-off button works.
Also, the power button often takes some time before starting the system (when cold booting, from standby this is still ok).

[solved] No video signal on cold boot - replug power and all fine

Hi,
My issue is a cold boot one. 6 weeks ago I installed a new mobo with new CPU. Three weeks ago I installed new RAM. Spec follows.
Now, since yesterday, when cold booting the system after some time off, the fans start spinning but that's about it. No video signal. Keyboard dead (numlock off), nothing. Simple solution is to then unplug and replug the power cord and press boot again, which then starts the system normally.
I googled this post at techspot, which labels my problem straight-on but they are running ASUS mobos. Since my system worked fault-free before, I am critical to their solution. https://www.techspot.com/vb/all/windows/t-7148-No-signal-to-monitor-amp-no-post-beeps.html
Any ideas what to do? Thanks a lot for your replies!
MoBo: MSI Neo2-FR, BIOS: 1.9
CPU: E8300 (C2D 2,83 Ghz)

(The PSU is quite weak, I know, but has always worked just fine before, might be it?)

but how come the problems came all the sudden
Well, they usually do, doesn't matter what component.
Try another Power Supply and see what happens. Than you will know if it is the PSU or not. (Maybe you have another system you can use the PSU from or a friend can borrow you his power supply unit.)

[Z87M GAMING] Debug Code 98 on cold boot

Hi All,
Hopefully someone can help me with this, it's been driving me up the wall for a while now.
First off, specs:
Z87M GAMING with bios v1.2
Intel 4670k, stock clock settings
Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz, CL set by XMP to rated speed.
Gigabyte Windforce 760 OC Edition, factory set OC clock.
Razer Deathstalker, Naga Hex KB & Mouse
So, my problem is that when cold booting the system it hangs with a code 98 on the debug leds. I then have to hit the hard reset button where the screen will then spark to life, complete with a message telling me my overclocking settings have failed. Note that everything was already stock, just XMP enabled. It only seems to do this after being fully powered down following a gaming session.
What has me stumped is that it doesn't do this with the PEG card removed, using on-board Intel gfx it will post & boot every time without popping an error. Nor are there any problems with the Geforce PEG card once it boots into windows, either during normal gaming or when doing a burn-in test with FurMark or Unigine Heaven benchmark. The PEG card was also tested in an older MSI/Intel based setup to rule it out.
All this leads me to think there could be either an issue with the bios, or compatibility problems with the Gigabyte & MSI products. I couldn't see a beta bios for the Z87M GAMING, and having RMA'd the cpu/ram/motherboard for the supplier to test only to be told there was no fault found, well... I really need to be sure of what the problem is.
So any suggestions or fixes, links to beta bios for this board, I'll try anything to just make it work rather than babysit it while it boots.
Thanks in advance for any replies,
Andrew

0x98 Console input devices connect
The system doesn't like something that is plugged in, commonly a compatibility problem with a mouse or keyboard.
Misconception. XMP 'is' overclocking, and it is possible it may have something to do with the problem. Return the RAM to default and see if the problem persists.
Admin or moderator would need to check on a Beta BIOS availability.

X301 Cold boot always reboots?

Hi,
Every time I cold boot my laptop it runs through POST, then reboots and POSTs again, then starts the OS.
It's a minor issue, but rather anoying, i.e. with fingerprint reading as you need to swipe twice.
This problem only occurs from a cold boot. When restarting the laptop this issue doesn't appear.
Anyone else have this problem?
thanks.

And yet another bump. Lenovo, can you please tell me what to do about this? This is the THIRD box already with various issues. Love the form factor but would like to have a completely working one...

On my PC, iTunes 11.0.3.42 causes it to hang when attempting to view a .MOV (1.6GB) requiring a cold boot. What could be causing this?

On my PC running windows XP Service Pack 3, iTunes 11.0.3.42 causes it to hang when attempting to view a .MOV (1.6 GB) requiring a cold boot. What could be causing this? Corrupted .MOV? Too little RAM? It successfully plays a 162 MB .MOV.

Hello David,
Thank you for providing all that information about the iTunes issue you are experiencing. We would first want to rule out any software issues before we can determine if it has to do with RAM. I found an article that will help you isolate and troubleshoot software issues that could be causing iTunes to behave this way:

I hope this helps you get back on track with watching movies in iTunes!

P965 platinium - Boot squence is lost when mashine is cold booted

Hi, I hope someone can help me out here...
When I cold boot my PC the bootsequence is lost and set to 1: floppy, 2: sata disk 1 in raid 5, 3: sata disk 2 in raid 5.
Now I don't have a floppy and the raid array is not a system disk. Then I have to re-enter my boot seq. to: 1: P0 500 GB system disk,2: None, 3: None) and save with F10. - but after a new cold-boot my sequence is lost again...
Please help me
My System:
MSI P965 platinium mother board, bios 1.6
500 gb system disk with dual boot on sata 0, Vista and XP.
3 250 gb disks to a raid 5 array on sata port 3,4 and 5.
Pioneer DVD-R (IDE) on jmicron
IN bios:
Onboard RAID Controller: is set to [IDE] <- this is the jmicron (I think) to my Pioneer DVD-R drive.
under On-chip ATA devices ->
PCI IDE BusMaser: is set to [Enabled]
configure SATA#1 as : is set to [ACHI]
The raid array works fine in Vista and XP. (Both system was installed on sata disk on port 0 with ACHI enabled.

I try and add a USB stick, then remove it , and the cold-boot. Hope it works.
Did it work? Actually, I wasn't suggesting this as a workaround. I was only telling you what I sometimes (inadvertently, of course) do to make the BIOS overwrite my normal boot sequence: boot with a usb stick plugged in.

Taking longer to boot when cold?

Does anyone else notice that their MacBook Pro takes longer to boot to the grey startup screen when cold? This morning, it took almost 10-12 seconds until the startup chime finally sounded. I tried it again about half an hour later (with the case already quite warm), and it booted up like normal, about 5 seconds until the grey screen appears.
I hope this isn't a sign of problems to come...

Tried a friends stick of ram. No effect. Any other suggestions before I fork out for a new motherboard?
I looked at the D-bracket again as it was attempting to boot. It goes VERY slowly through the first 3 steps: 1) processor initialization, 2) early chipset initialization, and 3) memory detection test. It sometimes bounced back and forth between 2 and 3 before stopping on 3.
Thanks,
Ben

W520 - Cold boot issues when docking, undocking

Has anyone seen this? My W520, BIOS 1.34, has issues when I cold boot for the FIRST time when I move the machine either to or from the mini-dock. What I mean is it doesn't boot quite right if I shut it down docked, then cold boot it undocked or vise versa.
By issues, I mean that although it boots into the Windows 7 desktop, most apps won't load. It is hard to describe.
My solution is to cold boot again. Then everything is ok.
I know the stock response - boot a minimal system, upgrade drivers and BIOS etc etc etc. I'm just wondering if anyone has seen this before and knows the exact cause of this issue. It sure would save me some time investigating.
Speaking of BIOS, what are the odds of Lenovo releasing anything further for the W520 i.e. "Version 1.4" without the 1333Mhz cap on memory?

K7N2 Delta-L: Strange cold boot problem & solution

My K7N2 Delta-L has a problem cold booting when the vcore is set in the bios at 1.65v of higher. After a cold boot, you get a blank black screen. I noticed that even if you run at default speeds but set the vcore to 1.65v of higher the problem still occurs. There is no problem rebooting however.
I found the following solutions:
1. After you power up and get a blank, hit the reset button.
2. Don't unplug your PC. My PC is connected to a AVR and after I power down the PC I usually turn the AVR off. If i do this, than the computer will have a booting problem if I try to boot it up 30 minutes later or so. Now if I don't unplug it/power off the AVR than everything is fine.
I don't understand why it acts the way it does though.
Does anyone know of any other solutions?

Have you cleared the cmos. If you do be sure you have the power turned off don't move the cmos jumper with the power on.
I found that turning off power at power supply and unpluging, than turning on the computer the fans will spin just a little this drains all the power. Clear cmos 2-3 than return to
1-2 position.
Than plug the power back in and turn it back on, than try the computer again.

USB Devices not working on cold boot

On a cold boot, I get either my mouse (Microsoft Optical) or my modem (see signature) not switched on. If I reboot, or just re-plug them in, they switch on and Windows detects them. The modem is attached to a port on the mobo, and the mouse to a powered USB hub. The only other device powered at boot is a joypad (Thrustmaster Dual Power 2), which always works at boot. Devices switched off at boot are a printer/scanner, desktop light, and an extension lead for a thumb drive.
Does anyone have a solution to this?

Expensive friend,
Step for the same problems, where already I communicated diverse times with the support of the MSI not obtaining a definitive solution for this problem. It does not go to advance nor to make magic, therefore the problem has left of the plate-mother and not of the operational system. I have one mouse of the Microsoft who possesss led and when I give the departure in the PC the same does not light in the screen of informs of devices of the CMOS. It would have.
Then I am obliged to remove and to place mouse of the door usb so that mouse functions. The problem is that I have that to faer this almost all time that I bind the micron.
The bios beta that decided this problem palliative were 1.5B8.
I see that all the ones that pass for this problem are receiving the had respect, therefore this problem already is old and no solution was adopted until the moment for the manufacturer.
If my problem to continue, I will get rid myself of my plate and I will migrarei for another manufacturer who hears me and she respects me, therefore we make many times investment s in products that would not have to give as much migraine.
We buy TVs and DVDs and we do not pass for problems as these.
I was disappointed with the MSI in this part. It would go to acquire a VGA 6600GT, but today I think seriously about not buying more nothing of the MSI.
Still more for that it occurred with the 6800GT that were being sales and in the truth they were 6800NU.What it is this?
I advise to the friend who if not to decide its problem in at least 1 month, it speaks brazenly of its mainboard and it buys of another
manufacturer as the ABIT or same Gibagyte.
I have friends that they possess plates of the Gigabyte and are very happy.

HUH??? You did know this is an English languager board right? If not then please read the forum rules. Also note that hijacking someone else's post so you can complain is against the rules here as well.
This is entirely a user to user forum and as such MSI is not here nor do they read it. So yopur complaints whatever they may be as we can't entirely read your post is not getting to those folks that you want to complain at. Instead you are just making the rest of us upset for no visable reason. If you want to contact MSI to copmplain may I suggest a phone call. You may also want to call someone there that actually speaks the same language so there are no miscommunications as what is happening here.

Solaris Hangs on Cold Boot

My IDE machine hangs just after Configuration Assistant (Initializing System\Please Wait...) on a cold boot. When I press the reset button it comes up every time. This is a bit concerning - if I have a power outage, my machine won't reboot. Has anyone else had this problem??
Cheers,
Simon

MOVED: z77a-g43 cold boot overclock issue

This topic has been moved to Overclocking, Undervolting.

Hello all,
I have this weird issue with cold booting while overclocking. I've tried very hard to diagnose the problem but have been unable to find the culprit.
So I'm using an i5-2500k with the mobo in the subject. I have flashed the BIOS to the latest (2.4). So everytime I try to overclock by using a different multi (it can be as subtle has x34) the system will fail the overclock while cold booting. What I mean by that is if I do the overclock from the bios then save&reboot it will load in windows and be totally stable under IBT. I can achieve any kind of overclock up to 4.7 Ghz and it will be totally stable.
BUT, as soon as I do a shutdown of the system, upon booting (cold boot), the computer will try to boot but fail at it. I'll be prompted by the bios to reload default.
I've tried various combinaisons to no avail. I even tried to underclock the processor to sub x33. I don't understand what could be wrong. It seems as soon as I switch to anything else then auto on the ratio, it won't boot from shutdown. Weird.
Thanks in advance for your inputs.

As you know I got exactly the same issue, but mine does boot when manually set at a lower ratio.
