  • MSI & ATI Radeon "recovered from a device Failure"

    .System:
    P4 2.4G 533Mhz
    MSI 645E Max-U with Sis 645 DX
    ATI Radeon 64 DDR VIVO AGP4x
    500 MB DDR PC2100 (266)
    80 GB HD ATA100
    Windows XP SP1
    The system just locks up, Dark screen and after a while turns to 640 x 480 4bit mode and says:
    "Microsoft Windows detected and recovered from a device failure. Please save your work and reboot to restore full functionality."
    From other forums same thing happens in Gigabyte, asus and via. It looks like asus has allready made a new bios update for there board I hope MSI do the same thing soone  ;(  ;( .
    Aparently 8X havent been fully exploted and there are some glitches. On top of that Windows XP and 2000 have some reflesh problems over 60 Hz (as it says in ati web)
    Mean while is up to us to look for workarounds until they do there job.  If the Mobos (motherboard) makers dont make the change then it will have to be up to ATI.
    Aparrently disabling the Fastwrite on windows helps a lot.  So far I have had this problem making a data backup on a DVD-R so two DVD-R wasted.
    If you want more info on where I got all this go to:
    http://www.rage3d.com/board/showindex.php?s=&threadid=33662452
    It looks like NVidia is having the same problem too but sorry cant help you there. go to this link to see if they can help you:
    http://www.tek-tips.com and search for weirdest video card problem   thread749-458930

    Your video card doesn't support AGP 8x, so that shouldn't be a factor at all.   Does SmartGart report it running at 4x?
    Did you do a clean install of XP when you started using your mobo?
    Has this problem only occured when using your DVD burner?  If so, the problem may lie with that.
    Only other suggestion... maybe time for a new video card?

  • How to recover from a software failure on the 6120 Fabric Interconnect

    Hi all,
    Had a software failure while upgrading the fabric interconnects. Does anyone know the process to recover from a software failure.
    Ive copied up the kickstart and system images, from the loader prompt ive booted the kickstart image and then loaded the system image but the fabric interconnect still reboots to the "switch(boot)" prompt.
    Thanks in Advance
    Darren

    Hi Robert,
    Thanks for the tips, but unfortunately im still stuck on the switch(boot): prompt.
    The bootflash: only has 2 files in it, the kickstart and system image.
    Each time i get the FI to the boot prompt, i can ping the device, but not access via the GUI. (i dont have a local copy of UCSM installed)
    What files should i have in the bootflash: for the FI to correctly load.
    below is a log of the FI as it loads the kickstart image from the Loader prompt.

  • The cellular data services have disappeared from my settings. Can anyone help me restore it please?

    The cellular data services have disappeared from my settings. Can anyone help me restore it please?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • How can I recover from Windows login failure: User Profile Service failed the login

    I have Boot Camp installed on a separate partition on a MacBook Pro, late 2011 model. I have Mavericks installedd (10.9.1). I use, variously, both Parallels and VM Fusion to access the BootCamp installation of Windows 7.
    Except for having recently installed updates of both VMFusion and Parallels, I got this failure message when trying to login to Windows:: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.
    I had just been on Windows a few moments previously to access a business site that only accepts IE. Appreciate any useful insight on dealing with this issue without having to totally replace the BootCamp installation. A lot of the suggestions on Microsoft Windows repair sites are either incomprehensible or don't seem applicable.

    Same problem here. Windows 7 support gives several so-called fixes (including regedit tweaks, eliminating the blocked user account), but all require access to that partition. So far as I know, I have only one user, since this is my personal computer -- unless there is some sort of default "administrator" logon.
    Windows support says the problem might be caused by antivirus software running while we try to logon, but this problem has never happened to me before, and I have not made anti-virus changes (maybe AVG or Avast did so automatically)
    I tried to access regedit through Finder, but get a garbled text-edit with the message that regedit cannot be opened by DOS.
    So I wonder (a) is there a default admin logon? (b) Can we tinker with the settings inside Windows from Finder, or (c) how else can we get into Windows?
    My setup: Macbook Pro (Fall 2010), 10.6.8, boot camp, Windows 7.

  • Anyone have success recovering from a disk failure after turning on File Vault

    My wife is running at 13" Macbook Pro Late 2011/Early 2012 running OS 10.7.3.  I updated several Apple fixes and a firmware fix the other day for here.  I also activated her File Vault to encrypt her files when not in use.  She had some intermittent issues with slow startups yesterday and today I was forced to do a hard reboot.  Swirling pinwheel that didn't seem tied to any application and and Command/Alt/Esc did not work to force quite or even see if anythng was hanging.
    This morning I a was getting a white screen followed by a file with a question mark...I have attempted to use Command-R internet recovery feature in Lion and managed to it to start up so I can open Utlilities and see if there are issues with the disk.  It is showing a 500.11 GB Toshiba MK5065GSXF Media and not a Macintosh HD.  I am unable to Verify or Repar Permissions or the Disk as these are grayed out.
    Did she lose the hard drive?  What are my options here.  My wife - after I convinced her to use a Mac - has lost four hard drives in less than a year and is on here second system (the first one was replaced by Apple after she lost three hard drives!)
    Any chance this is an issue with File Encyrption?  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    5 days after I had recieved my mbp, my harddrive failed as well. I did try to reinstall the OS but with no luck. At some point during installation, it would stop telling me to try again. So I took it to the nearest technical service center and they confirmed the hd-failure and replaced it. this was the 80gig @ 5200rpm. but since you were able to reinstall the OS again, you should be fine. have you run the diskutility again?

  • After installing iTunes on my PC and laptop, all my songs (including paid for) have disappeared from my previous music library. How do I get them back?

    What happens to the old library? Do I have to install all my songs again?

    For general library squiffiness following an upgrade the easiest thing is to restore your last backup, but I guess if it were that simple you wouldn't be here.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Storage Spaces - Can't recover from OS reinstall (failure to attach VHD)

    I had a Windows 2012 R2 Standard server with GUI running Storage Spaces on some non-raid drives.  The OS became corrupted and so I had to reinstall.  Upon reinstall I go to Storage Spaces and see everything just as it should be in terms of recovery.
    The problem I'm having is the reattaching of the VHD file itself that hosts all of the files.  I click attach VHD and it does, nothing shows up Explorer though.
    So I go to manage disk drives and it shows all of the individual drives and the large VHD set to offline.  I online the drive and the machine just basically locks up.
    I tried to do the same thing via powershell but have the same problem with the machine just locking up.  Anybody seend this before?  I don't really care to actually get the Storage Spaces working at this point, just need access the files themselves
    so I can pull them off.  Any help is much appreciated.

    Hi,
    Generically Storage Space will not be affected with reinstall operation system - if we move all disks to another computer, storage space will still be recognized.
    it shows all of the individual drives and the large VHD set to offline
    We should not see any disk inside a created storage space in Disk Manager - Virtual Disks created in Storage Space will be listed but not the physical disks. So I need to confirm:
    a. Whether "individual drives" means physical disks, or virtual disks created in Storage Space?b.
    Whether "VHD" here means virtual disks in Storage Space, or you actually created VHD on virtual disks (in storage space).
    If VHD here means virtual disks, you can test to connect all disks to another system which supports Storage Space (Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2) to see if disks could be recognized.
    However it seems more likely "VHDs on Virtual disk" - VHD files could corrupt which causes your current situation and if this is true, it will be difficult to get VHD files back to work as we have less option to repair a corrupted VHD file.

  • Recovering from various disasters

    Hello,
    I'm trying to put together a plan to recover from potential OVM failures, but I'm unclear about a number of points. Any suggestions and clarifications would be most welcome.
    Guest:
    We're installing a backup agent on all the VM's (Red Hat and Oracle Linux). If the VM was somehow completely lost, we plan to re-create it, do a fresh o/s install, and restore the filesystems from backup.
    VM Manager:
    It runs as VM. To recover from a problem, we plan to reinstall the VM Manager using the same UUID, rather than backing it up. If we were to back it up, are there critical configuration files we should back up?
    Database:
    This is exported and backed up regularly.
    Oracle VM Server:
    I'm not sure about this one. If we somehow lost one server (we have a 3-node cluster), if we just reinstall Oracle VM Server with the same ip and hostname would all be well after I rediscovered it? As long as the other two nodes were up and running, would the rebuilt server be added to the ocfs2 cluster when it's rediscovered?
    Also, what information is in the server pool filesystem and the database? How do you all back up the server pool filesystem (or do you?) ? We can't install our backup agent on the Oracle VM Servers.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.
    Edited by: user13166809 on Jan 7, 2013 12:55 PM

    there is no need to backup the Oracel VM Server .
    if something wrong with the OVS,not the ocfs2,you may wipe the db for the OVS,and the restart the agent then reboot the OVS.The ovs would be fresh as you just installed it

  • Can't convert ringtone files recovered from Nokia ...

    Hi everyone
    I have a bunch of ringtones which I have recovered from a Nokia 6760 Slide. They were stored on the included 64 megabyte micro SD card.  I want to convert them into a format used by my current phone.
    They appear as ".aac" files which play well on VLC on my Mac.  However, I cannot import them into iTunes and they will not play with any other media player. I cannot even import them into Fission to convert to another format.  The export function of VLC appears to work, BUT when you try to play the newly created mp3 or whatever format you chose on some other player you again get an error.
    I suspect the aac is suffix is just a container for an atypical or proprietary codec or something.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.
    Attachments:
    ringtones.jpg ‏23 KB

    SOLVED.
    I tried many codec conversion apps: VLC, MPEG Streamclip, FFMpeg, Fission, MeGUI, Max.
    I found out they were actually ADTS files inside an "aac" container.
    In the end, I gave up on converting the files and simply recorded the VLC stream with Piezo.
    CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
    Don't bother trying to convert ADTS files. Nokia probably used some proprietary method of encoding.
    Recording audio is much much easier.

  • Thanks this was very useful.. I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am having the same problem constant network fluctuations, no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/ba

    I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am experiencing constant network fluctuations on my iphone , no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/bars searching etc... Ifeel miserable after trying out all the options changed multiple sims, tried multiple carriers, restored the phone back and have set-up as new device but the problem does not get solved... its is so frustrating that after investing on a world's most expensive phone you cannot enjoy the calling features which the phone offers which is the main thing you own the phone for.. Rest of the things are working.. The funniest part I am not able to make calls or receive calls but can access the internet..  I have tried every possible thing and really very frustrated with this iphone of mine...I hope the problem gets solved.. would anyone have any solutions to this problem.. Does it mean one should never update software as I hear that after updating to IOS.5.1 the problem has started coming and same has been with there.... Apple says its a hardware failure which is very difficult to digest as sometimes I get 5 bars and able to make and receive calls but 95% of the time I am unable to. If anyone has any solution I will be very happy if he or share can share the same. Many thanks. its so disgusting to experience this on top of this apple does not support global warranty for the phone as you need to go to the country from where you bought the phone for replacement.. Truly sad state of affairs.. very very very dissappointing.

    Have a look at this it might help

  • I have been shut down from my previous email address as I left my company's email system, I am now on gmail and have changed my Apple Id and password successfully unfortunately I dont understand what I need to do to change my ICloud, IFace etc...ID?

    I have bene shut down from my previous Apple email ID as i left my company email' server. I have move to gmail and have successfully reset my Apple ID accordingly. My iCloud, IFace etc...unfortunately pop up with the previous email address and I dont remember the password, so I cant get in and change it to gmail! Anyone out there knows what to do, i would be very grateful, thanks. M

    First thing to try is just to sign out on all your devices. If you can do that you can just sign in with the new ID. However if you've set up 'Find My iPhone' you won't be able to.
    In that event go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

I EVEN REMOVED FIREFOX FROM MY COMPUTER AND DOWNLOADED IT AGAIN, FIGURING THAT BY NOT MERELY USING AN UPGRADE, I WOULD BE INSTALLING A COMPLETELY FRESH DOWNLOAD. UNFORTUNATELY, I RECEIVED THE SAME DISAPPOINTING RESULT, WITH THE SAME POP-UP MESSAGE RE-APPEARING. HOWEVER USING BOTH GOOGLE CHROME AND INTERNET EXPLORER, I WAS ABLE TO CONNECT TO WEBSITES. SO I HAVE TO CONCLUDE THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH MY INTERNET CONNECTION.

    Press '''START + R''' in keyboard to open the '''Run''' box(or '''start''' then '''run''') , type in the RUN box '''%APPDATA%''' (or copied in just i wrote, bold text) then click '''OK'''. A Windows Explorer window will appear, in this window, choose '''Mozilla''' then '''Firefox''' then '''Profiles'''. Each folder in the "Profiles" folder (e.g., "xxxxxxxx.default") is a profile on your computer (maybe is one file if you have only one profile).
