Satellite X200 SLI crashes when HDMI cable is plugged

Hi everybody,
I have X200-21K and since the very beginning the HDMI port doesn't work well - every time the HDMI cable is plugged in the blue screen appears and computer crashes. It behaves same in both SLI and non-SLI modes. The same result is even if I try to boot up with the cable already plugged in - in this case the DOS mode shows up ok on my TV but when Vista tries to load up it crashes again.
I really like the notebook but this starts to annoy me as I can't use the product the way I expected. In the previous thread somebody said it's going to be solved by drivers but there's no updated drivers available.
Does anybody have still the same problem or has somebody been able to solve this? Or do I have to place a warranty claim (I'd really like to avoid this)?
Thanks for help.

Hello
I recommend you to use different HDMI standards (HDMI 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.2a, 1.3). As far as I know there are different HDMI versions. Please talk with your local dealer and test it with some high quality cable.

Increasing brush-size crashes Win 8 - when HDMI cable is connected - Why?

Photoshop Elements. Increasing brush-size crashes Windows 8 when HDMI cable connected to TV or data projector. I'm using Asus N56V notebook with Nvidia 635M dedicated graphics card with latest driver.
Any ideas please?
Many thanks,
Clive (UK)

Hi Brian,
Here's an update:
The nub of the problem has been determined by my computer expert as a conflict (as we suspected) between the graphics driver and screen resolution. However the situation is far from dimple. I'll be as brief as possible:
No matter how we approach the settings for the Nvidia driver, when using HDMI, the 'workings' of the compuer automatically reset the driver to either the inbuilt Intel driver and if that's deliberately 'disabled' it reverts to the even more basic Windows 8 driver. As neither card/driver is 'dedicated', the sharing that occurs between the native resolution of the notebook display and the external display (even if this is set to a compatible value) the the computer crashes. It remains OK if a single dsipaly (internal or external) is selected. Dual display (which I must have) is the problem. My computer expert is going to contact Asus about this. He even tried setting the global setting to Nvidia only and it still didn;'t succeed.
I've since spoken with a colleague and he tells me that in the audio-visual community, this is a well known phenomenom with rexcent lapptops/notebooks no matter what to cost or spec - in so far as they ignor the 'dedicated graphics' when on HDMI in favour of the default (shared) driver and hence the problem. Apparently some notebooks are OK but one has to shop around and take pot luck. What a state of affairs!
The Asus notebook works OK using the VGA socket but let's face it, I bought this hi-spec computer for HDMI usage.
This is the story to date. It would appear that software is not the root cause.
I will continue to pursue the matter and find a resolutuion (no pun intended - or perahps it was!)
With all best wishes,
Clive.

Satellite L500-19x crashes when loading software from dvd

Any ideas?

Hi shownomercer,
Have you tried the Photoshop disk in another computer to check if the installation disk is ok or not?
What happens exactly when the computer crashes? Bluescreen?

Mac Mini crashes when HDMI-connected AV receiver powered off

This issue concerns a Mac Mini, mid 2011, running Yosemite. It is connected to a Yamaha AV receiver using HDMI and under normal circumstances works normally. However, whenever I power off the AV receiver, the Mac Mini crashes (spontaneously restarts).
I can't find any trace of a kernel panic, and there is no message after startup to say that the system has restarted unexpectedly.
For example, the system log from last night shows that is was performing a backup, and then there's the boot message at the time I shut the AV receiver down:
1/24/15 10:18:29.000 PM kernel[0]: hfs: mounted Recovery HD on device disk0s3

ASL Module "com.apple.authd" sharing output destination "/var/log/asl" with ASL Module "com.apple.asl".
Output parameters from ASL Module "com.apple.asl" override any specified in ASL Module "com.apple.authd".
I have swapped out the HDMI cable in case it is faulty, but this has not changed anything. This issue is easily reproducible but I haven't been able to find any possible solutions. It started after the Yosemite upgrade. Also, the AV receiver need not be displaying the Mac Mini video for this to occur. It will crash regardless of what channel the receiver is showing.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a similar issue after recently buying a receiver (Sony STR-DN1050) and wiring my mac mini through it.
Some observations that seems to be linked.
1. When I power up the receiver with another hdmi input than the mac mini, the mac mini switches fast between displays, from the TV name to unknown (observed through Remote Desktop), and sometimes log out the user.
2. Then, when switching to the mac mini hdmi input, everything works fine, as the mac will recognise the TV.
3. When switching off the receiver, the remote desktop disconnects and usually the mac mini will log off user or restart- not sure which.
Edit: Right now, when I powered off the receiver, the mac stayed on... no idea why, as it usually disconnects as mentioned above.
Edit2: As I look in the Display settings, the mac now recognizes my receiver as Display when it is turned off, presumably because I turned off HDMI pass-through on the receiver settings.
However, I still have problem 1 above: When I turn on the receiver with any other input than the Mac Mini, the mac will start switching displays and log out the user.

How to connect my Satellite C650 to TV with HDMI cable?

Connecting my laptop with my television??
I have Satelite C650 laptop which isnt that old, but ive connected my laptop to the television using a HDMI cable and it isnt working.
The television is a samsung 1080p one, i would be grateful for some advice.
Many thanks
Claire

Hello Claire
I presume you use your notebook with original preinstalled OS that you got with your notebook so it should work without problems.
Connect your notebook to the TV with HDMI cable. If your TV has several HDMI ports please enable right port on TV and after doing this use FN+F5 key combination to switch from notebook to the TV.
When you use FN+F5 key combination can you see several options including HDMI option?

Satellite Pro L100 crashes when loaded with 2 x 1GB Ram

Hi,
Satellite Pro L100 - came with 512MB ram - Too slow - expanded using 2 x 1GB ram from crucial technology, speed 555MHz
When both 1GB installed, laptop crashes on the XP boot screen - then loops, crashes, loops, crashes etc...
Tried alternating the slots and using ram independantly - No change - so ruled out faulty ram
Tried shippped memory with 1 x expanded 1GB ram - All OK.
Tried every orientation conceivable - just crashes when expanded ram is loaded to its specificed max - 2GB.
Upgraded BIOS to 3.2 - no change
Does anyone here have any other suggestions? I fear my last resort is to dig deep and get more ram from a diff OEM, prefer not to hence asking politely for help
Thanks in advance,

Have you ran Memtest?
Download the bootable Memtest CD ISO from www.memtest.org and run it for a few passes.

Satellite L775-119 crashes when charging

I've had my Satellite L775-119 since 2011. Recently I've noticed it will crash when I'm charging it when booted up into Windows, especially when play video online, when I disconnect the charger, the fan will slow down and act normally.
I'm thinking that Windows may need wiping and re-installing, its seems to do it when Im trying to do too much multi tasking, any one had the same problem or can offer any advice please?
Thanks David

Im confused about your message.
When does the notebook crash? Only when the AC adaptor is connected or also while running on battery power?
Since its not clear for me if its an software or hardware related issue, I would recommend you to test the notebook using the factory settings. I mean you should recover the notebook back to factory state using recovery disk.
Perform some tests and post some feedback.

Macbook Pro crashes when External HD is plugged in

Hi,
Was wondering if anyone else had experienced their Mac crashing when attaching an external HD or had any suggestions on how to recover the data?
When I attach the drive, the screen freezes for a second and reboots the whole machine. I then get the grey screen which says "Your computer has been restarted because of a problem. Press a key or wait a few seconds before starting up"
Have tried to attach the hard drive to a different Mac Book but had the same issue. Until this happened I had no other issues with the drive, it had been working perfectly.
Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Step one would be to try another cable or connection type, but since you've provided no info on the HD or enclosure, there's no way to provide a viable answer.

Snow Leopard: I can't login when ethernet cable is plugged in.

I have a Aluminum 2007 iMac running Snow Leopard. When I try and boot it with all the cables plugged in (Keyboard, External Harddrive, Speakers, Ethernet, Second Display), it will bring up the login screen but then when I try and login, it will just hang at the default Snow Leopard Aurora Wallpaper. It shows the cursor but doesn't load the Finder or anything else. After leaving it be for a few mins, I restarted it a few times and it did the same thing. I have Archived and Installed a few times so far and that didn't fix it.
When I tried unplugging all the cables, it booted properly and works like a charm. When I plugged the Ethernet Cable in and booted it, it freezes like it used to. I tried plugging in other things and they work. But when the ethernet cable is plugged in at Startup, it will freeze at the default wallpaper (Located in System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg).
When I have the ethernet cable it will boot into Safe Boot.
Then when I booted it up without the ethernet cable it brought up two alert windows saying that Insecure Startup Item disabled. It says that /Library/StartupItems/tap and /Library/StartupItems/tun have can't be started because they don't have proper security settings. I looked them up and they appear to be Virtual Networking Interfaces (probably installed when I installed Parallels 4.0). Removing them and restarting with the ethernet cable in still has the same affect as before (freezing).
Anyone have any idea the ethernet cable is causing this to not login correctly.

Kernel Panic when network cable is plugged in

Hi everybody!
first, sorry for my english - i will give my best =)
I have an 1,8 ghz G5 with 2 GB RAM, OS = OSX 10.3.9
It worked well for approx. 3 years. Since 1 week i get a kernel panic (a message appears where it says i have to restart the system) after a few minutes when the network cable is plugged in.
if the network cable is not plugged in, it works!
i have already changed the network card (i have tried 3 different) and a new network cable...
so what could that be?!
thanks for every answer
Alf

yup. i've heard of a daemon that does exactly what you're looking for. It's called ifplugd, and there's a package available for it in Extra. You can read up about it at ifplugd's homepage.

XCode 3.1 Crashes when iPod touch is plugged

Hello
I had an old iPhone SDK, where there is no iPhoneOS and iPhoneOS Simulator yet ,
instead of them, it contains Aspen and Aspen Simulator.
When my iPod is connecting and xcode tries to upload app I get the
error. (i had not signed it from apple yet, it's in progress now, so i
get error during upload)
Some days ago, I download latest iPhone SDK, and after installing it,
i have a problem - when iPod Touch is plugged, xcode crashes, because it can't
get a _AMDevice...USBID symbol. at
system/library/privateframeworks/mobiledevice.framework/versions/a/mobiledevice
I tried to replace this framework, from older sdk, but the problem
does not disappear. then I replaced
developer/platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/developer/library/xcode/plug-ins/iPhoneRem oteDevice.xcodeplugin
by file from oldest sdk, from aspen platform,
developer/platforms/aspen.platform/developer/library/xcode/plug-ins/aspensupport .xcodeplugin
after doing that, xcode does not crash anymore, but when i try to
upload my app to iPod i get an error that "not provisioned iPhone OS
device is connected", and iPod does not react to this, and I noticed
that the time between clicking build'n'go and the appearing of this
error is too short, imho. i think there is no attemt to connect to the
device, but in the organizer iPod is present.
SDK was installed after updating to iTunes 7.7, BTW, iTunes also crashes during upload apps.
I can't understand how i can fix this.
So is it correct to replace new xcodeplugin, by oldest xplugin from other sdk ?
Please advise.

which build of SDK need to use ?
can someone give iPhoneRemoteDevice.xcodeplugin from developer/platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/XCode/Plug-ins
and MobileDevice from /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/A
I already try some builds, but only one work with iPod, but there is no iPhoneOS platform, only Aspen
BTW, what difference beatween Aspen and iPhoneOS ?

Qosmio F50 - Up arrow signal when HDMI cable connected

Hello,
I've been able to connect my laptop to my LCD TV (LG LH4000) through HDMI but every 3~5 seconds it seems to receive a signal from the up arrow.
Let's say I'm browsing some files in the windows explorer and it goes up one file, just as if someone pressed the up arrow.
This only happens when its connected using HDMI. As soon as i unplug the cable, it stops doing it.
I've tried to search for similar problems, but no luck.
Thanks for your help

Hello
I have the same problem as you do, also i have a Qosmio F50, and when i connect it to my LG 42LD450 tv monitor i get the same problem i am running windows 7 64 bit, and now i made a reinstallation of the same OS but now it seams that i cant even get a signal to my tv, but the screen is still jumping up now and then with a few seconds of intervall...
If you found a solution i would really want to know it in the mean time i will continue to try to solve the problem.
Let you know if i find something out....

Blinking HDMI menu items when HDMI cable is connected - Diagnosis?

I've been streaming live video through my Vixia HF G10 for the last year. Recently it has started to fail to send a signal through the miniHDMI out (or the capture card has failed to recognize it). I have noticed that when I connect my Vixia HF G10 to my Blackmagic Intensity Pro capture card, the HDMI options in the settings menu *blink*. Why is this? I can't find anything in the manual. I have already: 1. changed HDMI cords 2. reseated the capture card in the PC. 3. reset the camera. 4. added a signal repeater equalizer in line for the HDMI. Thanks for your help!

Hi wolfpack!
Thanks for posting.
When the connection status is blinking, this usually means there is a bad connection or the connection is not supported. Typically, removing the extras in the connection or changing cables clears this right up.
What happens when you connect the camcorder via HDMI directly to a TV?

Satego X200 - No Sound when HDMI connection is used

Hi,
I got my Satego X200 a year ago and since yesterday I am trying to use the HDMI interface to connect it to a LCD TV. I get a brilliant picture but no sound at all. Is there anything I am not taking into consideration? I've googled everything that I could think of but appropriat answers found.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance

So I am back again with the solution that helped so I hope it will help other users. I did an update on BIOS, Graphic Card and HD Audio. The only thing that really helped was the driver / software update I did on Sound by updating drivers and s/w having downloaded them directly from the Realtek Site. SO I hope this hepls anybody else in the same situation.
