RT- cannot setup HDD, or new ip

Hi fellows,
 I am trying to set a desktop PC as a RT, but I'm very disappointed with the results as I tested everything and got no advancement...
...would you please please help me out here?!
These are PC spec,
motherboard: Asus P5Q SE PLUS (has IDE)
Processor: Intel Core 2 duo, 3000Hz, E8400
PCI ethernet: Intel pro 1000GT (chipset 8254x)
HDD: either WD-40GB(20-pin and 40-pin cables tested) or WD-250GB(40-pin) (not both are connected simultaneously)
RAM: tested  with 1GB or 2GB DDR2-800
Video card: some fancy card is there (does it affect anything?)
BIOS options:
-floppy used with and without USB legacy enabled, for many diffrent cases
-USB is set as hard drive (otherwise it fails)
-tested when extra serial ports are disabled/enabled, audio card disabled/enabled, onboard PCIE lan disabled
-HDD's are not SATA, but anyways, SATA is set to campatible IDE
-ACPI 2.0 support disabled
-Plug 'n Play disabled
-BIOS EHCI hand-off ???
-I couldn't find any other maybe-related option to change
 network setup:
      some address is provided in my workgroup subnet... (ip=ip1)
 local setup:
      didn't have a crossover cable to test...
 USB recognizes primay ip address as (169.100.115.239(ip2) which is in a different subnet as local connection)
 floppy gives primary as 0.0.0.0(ip3)
Tests:
Labview versions 8.2,  8.5.1, 8.6.1
finding IDE hard drive failed:
-formatted using numerous fdisk and format versions (win95, win98, xp, freefdisk, free bla bla, Ultimate boot CD)
-tried only-primary, primary with logic, fat 16, fat32, active/non-active drives
-tested via USb and floppy v. 8.2 8.5.1 8.6.1
-floppy says can only reformat FAT16 and FAT32, please use USB...
-USb says : Error -1: No ATA/SATA drive detected, format failed (or IDE not found in evaluation)
evaluating through USB and floppy leads to the HDD problem only...
using safemode:
-usb: reaches to
 mac xx...: ip1 (primary)
  ...safemode ... (user directed)
-floppy:
  mac xx...: 0.0.0.0 (primary)
  System state: Unconfigured
PC found through MAX using floppy disk (0.0.0.0) and a new ip is set...or USB is found as ip2 and then changed to admin-assigned ip...
...BUT when rebooted, we are at the first place, the new ip is not set
(in all cases HDD is not found)
...for usb case, MAX recognizes ip2 but as inconsistent ip, and it is not possible to install softwares (the PC name does not expand in remote systems)
PROBLEM1: HDD not found at all
PROBLEM2: New ip is not saved, and turns back to default after reboot
Thanks
Morteza

-Are the RT computer and PC on the same subnet?
Sure they are, I am quite sure I have no ethernet problem here.
-The harddrive needs to be formatted as FAT32.
It is, I also tested 16 anyways
You have mentioned several different computers.
-Have you been moving the same harddrive around between these computers? Maybe the harddrive configuration is wrong (i.e. the jumpers on the back of the IDE drive)
*it is set as master (it is single) ( since it is only the only ide in all computers, the configuration in this sense is the same)
*I used several other options too, like having one/two hards, master/single/slav.
-What tests have you been doing with these computers?
*one of these is ours (which doesn't work), two others are not ours anyways, so even if they work, it is not a working option. And the old dell is the only working one.
* Basically, using  dell pc, everything worked very easily (just a bios configuration, and working. I formatted 20GB/40GB using floppy with dell. I used these two hards on our pc (which didn't recognize or format the HDDs) to set up the system using floppy/usb/MAX(router or internet connection); it still couldn't recognize the HDD(s) ... (there are 3 points implying the same) (1)the max says "0 bytes" space in HDD(s), (2) If a new ip is se and rebooted, the new ip is not recognized (not saved in HDD), (3) if using USB (which sets the ip automatically) I try to install software on HDD, it starts with error uploading, probably disk is full.
*I also installed RTOS on the 20GB HDD using dell, and did several tests on our pc, no progress...
-I know you made more progress with the old Dell. What exactly happened? What are you testing with these different computers?
*with dell everything is fine. Our PC seems to be imcompatible. I can't use the other PCs as they are not mine, just wanted to test with them, so I know where the problem is, or if I could format the HDDs somewhere and use them here (which didn't work)

  • Cannot setup email

    I'm new to using a blackberry, recieved a pre-used Pearl 9105. It seems as though its been "wiped" hence i cannot setup my email on it. I cant find the email setup icon anywhere?
    Although when I go tho Settings-Options-Applications-Core there are details of the applications properties? Does this suggest that it was once there?
    Please help? How can I restore email on the device?

    There should be an icon that says "Setup". In there is the option to set up Email. (I think it's the same on OS 5 and 6...)
    Alternatively you can go into your messages->menu->"Options"
    "Email Account Management"
    This is assuming that you have a viable data plan to send and receive emails...

  • TS3899 Cannot send email with new iPad air.  Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.

    Cannot send email with new iPad air.  Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.  I have deleted account and reinstalled.

    Thanks.  I got the problem fixed.  Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor.  It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner.  Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail.  I checked all the specifics between the three units.  It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com  to TWC.com.  Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics.

  • Cannot able to view new activities in CONS

    Hi,
    We successfully deployed new DC into our portal system. Then our dev team did some changes and then created new activity and released in NWDS.
    New changes went through default development runtime system.
    But I cannot able to view new activities under CONS system, it was showing empty queue. Can any one please help me to fix this issue?
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Srinivas,
    If you are sure the activity was successfully released from NWDS, try to check in the import history of cons. May be the released activity got imported already.

    Cannot see Cookies with new update of firefox.<br />
    I recently updated firefox, but when I look on the PRIVACY window, where<br />
    websites store cookies, I am no longer able to see any cookies that<br />
    are being stored, and I am not able to delete the cookies as soon as I leave<br />
    their site, as I had been doing for a long time prior to updating.<br />
    So I am wondering where the heck are the cookies being stored now, with the<br />
    new update? I like to be able to delete their cookies immediately, and<br />
    I also wonder why firefox does not make it much easier for us to see<br />
    all the cookies and delete them with one click, instead of having to <br />
    use the &lt;&lt;TOOLS&lt;&lt;OPTIONS&lt;&lt;PRIVACY way of looking at and deleting cookies.<br />
    The option to delete the cookies when firefox closes is not as efficient<br />
    and I will get tracked until I close firefox, and I prefer to not be tracked<br />
    so I like to just delete their cookies as soon as I am no longer using their<br />
    site anymore.

    (my question was not fully showing so I added this here)
    way of looking at and deleting cookies.
    The option to delete the cookies when firefox closes is not as efficient
    and I will get tracked until I close firefox, and I prefer to not be tracked
    so I like to just delete their cookies as soon as I am no longer using their
    site anymore. So I need to know how to make the cookies visible again, so I can immediately delete them. thank you

  • Cannot install itunes on new laptop

    Cannot install itunes on new laptop, even when security software is disabled.  Downloads fine, goes through install and then says it can't install on my system.  I have admin priviledges and already have Quicktime running.  Help!  I have itunes already running beautifully on 3 other computers and an ipod touch with home sharing - but my new laptop just won't intall itunes.  Can anyone help?

    Many thanks. Quite often with the 0x800736B3 on the iTunes install, there seems to be an 0x8007000b in play for Windows Update.
    Let's try the following document first:
    [Windows Update error 8007000b|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-error- 8007000b]
    Next head to Windows Update and try stocking back on Windows Updates again. If you're a long way behind (sometimes this has been going on for months for people), you may need to do it in several batches. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
    After you're stocked back up on Windows Updates, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
    (If you can't get Windows Updates to install, post back to let us know the error codes you've been getting on the most recent attempts at updates. Sometimes things are in such a snarl that we have to try a few different measures with them.)

  • Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

  • When I log in to my hotmail account on mu apple Ipad, I see inbox only and cannot see the word ''new'' to send emails. So I can read my emails but cannot send. Where is the feature to send emails.

    QUESTION : when I log into hotmail on my new ipad, I only see inbox where I retrieve my messages but cannot see the word  ''New'' which would
    allow me to send emails the way it would be on a desk pc. So I can retrieve my messages but cannot send ???
    Thank you in advance for help.

    The icon in the upper right of the screen (assuming you are using the Mail app) that looks like a square with a pen is the new message button. Tap that to create a new mail message.

  • Cannot open link in new tap or window after update to v.5

    I'd updated to V.5 and then found that it cannot open link in new tab or window, from google page, after updating. I'd reinstalled 2 times but it still be the same problem. How should I do? Please suggest.
    Thanks.

    This didn't fix the problem so I have decided to revert to the previous version: 24.6.0 esr. Maybe when version 31 or 32 come around I come back to the "latest" version?
