Serious problems with my new comp set up, EMergency!!!

I just want to say this is an emergency for me because im leaving for college tommorow......
My comp stats are as follows
3.0 EGHZ prescott p4
MB 865 PE neo 2
two 512 kingston ram
geforce 6800
antec 430 w psu
m-audio sound card
maxtor 120 gig hd
After a lot of trouble i was finally able to get the system running. My friend been trying to work on it at his house and was unsucessful he dropped off all my parts at my house except for a stick of ram he had forgotten and my sound card. He basically had given up, i had recieved my new video card in the mail today so i decided to give it a shot with the video card. Everything worked perfectly i was able to get everything up and running very nicely and the system was perfectly stable as far as i could tell. Today my friend dropped off the stick of ram he had forgotten and my sound card. I proceeded to install the sound card, ram and my tv tuner all togeather since i assumed my system was working fine. Upon powering up the system the computer made a very high pitch strange noise (not like a beep but a long scream that didnt stop till i shut it off promptly there after ) that seemed to be coming from around the PSU. I took the tv tuner out first and tried again, this solved the problem. The comp was no longer booting though. I then took the sound card out and ram, comp was still not booting. It would go on and then freeze or the monitor would just stay in standby. At this point i proceeded to take out everything but my video, one stick of ram and hd. I can now get the comp to boot pretty much whenever but itll freeze at random points and it cant go into windows (i got it to go in in safe mode but it froze a few mins later ). Comp has also frozen in bios.. PLEASE HELP im desperate...
i can be contacted on aim at Doctaprofit any information is greatly appreciated.

PSU is definetly not the issue
I had the same problems as you !
Don't be so sure . I have the same power supply and it is just barely adequate for my needs
the 12 volt rail is weak.
What Bios are you running ?
Do as Danny states and increase your memory voltage to 2.7 or 2.8 ( this was one of my biggest problems , once I changed it the stablity of this board increased by 200%)
As a last resort remove everything and start over . It would not be the first time that someone added a component and experenced trouble because of a loose connection
Good Luck

Serious problem with my new C5

Since the first day I got my Nokia C5 phone, I began experiencing strange problems with it. During browsing the Internet, it suddenly shuts down and I have to turn it back on to use it. With time, these crashes became more and more frequent (at least 2-3 times a day) and now they occur not only while browsing the Net, but also while receiving calls etc... In addition to this, when it crashes, I cannot turn it back on for at least 30-40 mins after the crash, and oftenly on startup it displays odd messages like "Phone start-up failed. Please contact your retailer" or "Memory full. Unable to continue"... I am not able to press any of the keys then and in 1-2 minutes, the phone switches off, and I cannot turn it back on for at least 10-15 mins after that. That is VERY strange, because I have plenty of memory available both on the phone and on the memory card.

@ radox
The fact that your phone does not turn on after sudden shut down indicates that something hardware related might be the root cause. There isn’t much software running in the phone when the phone is switched off.
If you do not want to take your phone to Nokia Care point below are few simple troubleshooting steps you could try.
-       After sudden shut down take the battery off for few minutes to test does the phone switch on after that.
-       Reset the phone as jimmyireland suggest but please note that it will reset the phone totally so you need to configure it after that. Taking a backup with Ovi Suite before reset is recommended.
-       Remove memory card to see does phone randomly switch off without it
-       I agree with pudu. Shut down all applications which are running in the background to see is one of them causing the reboots. If rebooting ends, start applications slowly one by one to find out which one is causing the shutdowns. Install applications to memory card to prevent phone memory filling up.
-       Check the battery connectors in case loose connectors are causing connection failures
-       Update the phone firmware when never version will be available
If nothing above helps, I’m afraid that phone needs to be checked at Nokia Care point.

Strange and Serious Problem With My New Airport Express

I've Just replaced my airport express after my old one died a few weeks ago. When I plug the airport in and connect ethernet it works straight away, no problem. There's a yellow light flashing, and the Airport Utility software is prompting me to set it up with a name and password.
I've done all of this before with previous airports, always easy, always worked.
For this one though, as soon as i name the base station or network, or add a password, after restarting the airport I get a full wireless connection but no internet, email or anything actually working (shows up as a full wireless connection on my i phone too which won't do anything). There was a firmware update the day after i got it this week which also installed, but still the same thing.
If i reset the airport in the utility software all works fine again. but, no password and a flashing yellow airport light.

I've tried again... I really can't understand what should be a very simple procedure just isn't working.
Setup name and password, restart, full signal, no internet connection but a green light on the airport. Restore default settings in airport utility, yellow flashing light, full internet, but no password...

Problems with the new iPad and Joikuspot premium after iOS 6

Hi,
I'm experiencing serious problems with my new iPad after last iOS update. Usually I was connecting to the internet through Joikuspot premium on Nokia mobile phone (E6). I was able to do everything, https sites surfing, absolutely everything with no exceptions.
Now, after iOS 6 update, I can't connect to https sites, google+, sync calendar etc.
I've tried to change connection criteria on joikuspot but nothing. The fact is also that other devices as laptop or other smartphones are still working perfectly, in any case, sharing the wi-fi connection created by joikuspot.
Finally the problem is 100% due to the iPad and the new iOS.
disappointing, amateur for such a device... (iPad I mean).
Any help?
Many many thanks
Vittorio

Ho lo stesso problema, dopo l'aggiornamento a IOS 6 l'ipad non riconosce più il mio nokia N8. Con IOS 5 andava una cannonata...
vorrei ritornare a IOS 5

Problem with the new server UCS C220 for set IP to CIMC

Hi
We’ve a problem with the new server UCS C220.
We bought two servers UCS C220 M3 for CallManager 8.6 with High Availability.
When we turn on the server during the boot and when it tells us, oppress F8 to enter at the CIMC and set the IP. But it never enters at the CIMC.
Then, we configure our DHCP server and our switch, we connect the three gigabyte ports to our switch to give him an IP to the CIMC, so and then can enter via browser, but neither works.
Note. The dedicated management NIC does not link, the other two ports do make link.
What do you suggest to put an IP to CIMC and start installing our applications?
regards

You may have noticed that there is no DVD rom on the c220. What you need to do is:
Login into the CIMC from your browser
Luanch the KVM
Insert the VMware DVD in your machines drive
On the KVM pop up there should be a tab to mount the drive, after mounting it click on Macros and choose ctrl_alt+delete to restart.
After the VMware OS installs press F2 to enter IP.
Browse to the VMware ip to download the Vsphere client
Open the Vsphere client, enter the ip of the vmware and the username will be root and no password if you did not set one.
You can now upload OVA templates or manually create virtua machine from this enviroment.
Hope this help

I am having email problems with the new Mountain Lion. stmp, imap, etc. I have looked up google info and It is confusing when it comes to TS, SSL also, please explain how to set it up so my email goes out and comes in securely. Help

Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option? The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED. Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right? Port 993 can use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe. Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD. Should I have used external client cert TLS?
Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

Some serious problems with Mountain Lion

Hi everyone,
I upgraded my mid 2010 15" MBP to Mountain Lion 2 days ago, and I have some serious problems with my machine now.
- Wifi problem: like many members 's machines, mine has problem to connect to the wifi after sleep or restarting, I had to wait 10 to 15 minutes for it to connected to my home network. Anh I tried to remove all of my settings in System Preferences/Network and added new connection. And now it cant connect to wifi anymore. I'm writing this article while sitting on the floor with my Ethernet cable plugged in my MBP. I connected to internet through a DSL modem and a Airport Extreme as a bridge and Access Point. I also tried to set up all of my network device but my MBP can't connect to the wifi still.
- Keyboard problem with Pages: I was very happy with the new iCloud syncing for Pages documents but after 5 minutes, I met a big problem with Mountain Lion. Whenever I type in Pages with Vietnames Keyboard( Mac OS X built in or from another developer: http://www.trankynam.com/gotv/ ), Pages stops working immediately. I can still drag the Pages's window around but can't type or do any editing. After that I have to force quit pages. It is really stupid that I'm writing a book in Pages and now I have to stop my working till apple fixes this ridiculous bug. I tried German Keyboard as well and Pages worked flawlessly. Do you hate Vietnamese, Apple?
- Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couln't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
Apple, please test your software more before release it. I feel like I have no computer at the moment because I can't work, can't surfing the web wirelessly and can't communicate with my friends.

HI,
- Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couldn't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
What Messages to what type of Buddies or Contacts ?
This
I found out that the problem with my wifi was my MBP received automatically a ridiculous IP such as 169.254.170.0 instead of 192.168.1.4 as it should be.
WIll be part of the Issue as will be DNS issues.
mDNSresponder crashed with Handsoff! v1.5.3. After upgrading Handsoff! to v2.0.2, it works again.
In this case mDNSresponder also being stopped will stop DNS working.
I would guess if you have resolved these that you can Chat to people again.

Create your border first, then set the panels border. Do this:
[code]    titledBorder5 = new TitledBorder(" Liste des circuits ");
    titledBorder5.setTitleColor(Color.white);
    jPanel5.setBorder(titledBorder5);
    jPanel4.setBackground(new Color(27, 85, 135));
//    jPanel4.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder()); // redundant
    titledBorder4 = new TitledBorder(" Liste des circuits ");
    jPanel4.setBorder(titledBorder4);[/code]
Not this
[code]    jPanel5.setBorder(titledBorder5);
    titledBorder5 = new TitledBorder(" Liste des circuits ");
    titledBorder5.setTitleColor(Color.white);
    jPanel4.setBackground(new Color(27, 85, 135));
    jPanel4.setBorder(titledBorder4);
    titledBorder4 = new TitledBorder(" Liste des circuits ");[/code]
You should also use code tags as I have demonstrated above. It makes you code easier to read for the people you are asking to help you. You can read about them under Formatting Help on the page you post on.

Hi Suzy Q,
I can send and receive calls.
I get "messaging stopped" when doing a lot of texts.
Texts come up "ghosted" meaning they have the text on the bottom and a transparent one overlaid on top. they then become one. But I get the ghosting most of the time when I go into a message from a contact to send a text.
When I go to call logs or text logs, the numbers come up first, and then then the names pop up randomly, meaning not in order down the page, until they are all shown. lots of lag time.
It runs slow.
I have 5 apps on here. I should be able to have a lot of apps on here, and play music, and have files, and...and....and.
I can get online but doing a Google search, when the page with the choices comes up, it is blurred and I have to tap on the screen for it to become clear and readable.
When online and scrolling, it hitches sometimes/lags/gets stuck then unstuck
I get VZWAVS has stopped. (not sure if those are the right letters)
The status bar that is supposed to be gray with the new update, goes back and forth between green--the old os--to gray. And I have found no continuity with when I get green or when I get gray.
I get a black screen on occasion.
sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't work.
sometimes when I have my bluetooth on and have "hands free mode" on, I get the a text message read through the headset and also through the handset.
I soft reboot often--turn it off wait a bit and

Reminder:
Forum Rules: Don’t… - Bump posts. (Bumps will be deleted without further notice)
There are many people having the same problem (according to the ROCKSTAR forum), so I think the problem is from the GTA V and the NV Graphics Driver.
There are users sharing the temporary fix:
Quote:"There is a temporary fix for the Nvidia cards where you disable the Nvidia cards in the device manager and reenable after launching game."
Source: https://support.rockstargames.com/hc/communities/public/questions/203308668-GTA-V-on-Laptop-Issues-Intel-AMD
Give it a try.
I'm sure that the long term solution should be a game patch or the new NV driver. It's better that you report the issue to the ROCKSTAR GAMES.

Urgent! Serious problem with J2EE Classloader!

Hi all,
I'm having a serious problem with j2ee Classloading.
I have "inherited" a J2EE application where all business classes (invoked by the EJB) are placed in the Application's Server classpath (Weblogic 8.1.4).
Very bad because every time a class is changed the a.s. must be restarted.
So I re-enginereed the package putting the business classes in a jar that is referenced by the EJB's MANIFEST file.
This way all the classes would be loaded by the EJB classloader and no need to start/stop weblogic.
Unfortunately it's not such !! I discovered that all business classes are loaded via REFLECTION
Object objCommand = objClass.newInstance();
Object[] param = new Object[1];
param[0] = aDataContainer;
objDataContainerReturn = (DataContainer) objMethod.invoke(objCommand,param);
and the application server cannot find them using the standard J2EE Classloader mechanism.
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39)

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: irma/utility/log/LogPrintStream
at irma.business.service.LoginService.login(LoginService.java:79)
On the other hand they're found if I put the classes on the application server classpath.
Has anybody got advice for this ? Should I refactor the application giving up reflection ?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Reflection uses the classloader as well so it should work fine.
A common cause of a NoClassDefFoundError is something in a parent classloader that refers to something only available in a child loader.
For instance, do you have any of your application classes which are in the $CLASSPATH but reference something that is only (now) in the business.jar in your ear?

Problems With My New Macbook

I bought my white Macbook early February and since then i have come aross a couple of problems, so i am posting here to see if anyone else has experienced my first problem and to warn you all of the second;
- My headphone out only plays out of the left headphone unless I turn the volume right up which causes the right ear to distort profusely.
- The highly rated "Incase" Neoprene Sleeve I bought with it has left black stains on the sides and looking at other threads it seems that it is only the newer Macbooks that suffer with the problem with the case.
My macbook is now with the apple repair guys for a few days to sort the headphone problem out and the person I spoke to recommended getting a new case.
I just think it's ridiculous that they advertise the case with picture of a white macbook when it actually stains them..
Let me know if you have experiences similar problems with the new macbooks..
Regards,
Martin

I have tried multiple sets of headphones which work fine with my ipod and i still have the same problem and I get the same problem when playing music through itunes, frontrow, myspace and purevolume.
Whilst i was on the phone to apple support they led me through a few different ways of resolving the problem easily i.e going into system preferences and checking that the pan is centered, restarting the mac by pressing 4 keys at the same time etc. and none of that fixed the problem.
Hmm it seems that no one else has had a similar problem to this.. maybe i just got a faulty unit.. I should get my macbook back from the repair guys either today or monday so i'll find out then exactly what the problem was.
Thank you all for your input!

[SOLVED][GRUB]Install problem with the new method

Hi,
it is not my first install of Arch Linux but I have a problem with this new kind of installation method, especially with GRUB.
Here is my hard drives configuration :
/dev/sda1 -> SSD 120 GB ntfs (windows)
/dev/sdb1 -> HD 1 TB ext4 (data)
/dev/sdc :
/dev/sdc1 -> ext2 /boot
/dev/sdc2 -> swap
/dev/sdc3 -> ext4 /
/dev/sdc5 -> ext4 /home
During the installation, I installed grub (with grub-install) in /dev/sdc. I assumed it was the correct drive to install it but apparently not, Windows starts automatically and I don't have the grub menu.
Should I install my system again or is there a way to boot on the livecd and install it ?
Should I :
1) mount /dev/sdc3 in /mnt then /dev/sdc1 in /mnt/boot and finally /dev/sdc5 in /mnt/home
2) pacstrap /mnt grub-bios
3) arch-chroot
4) grub-install
Thank you.

If you set whatever drive "/dev/sdc" is (brand and model) to boot first in the BIOS, all you need to do is install a bootloader on Arch. You don't even need a separate boot partition. It will use the /boot folder on root partition. Then install os-prober (if you don't already have this installed) and re-generate the .cfg.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … bootloader
The problem is that I cannot select another hard drive. The only one available for the boot order is the Samsung 830 series (/dev/sda with Windows).
The other options are the CD drive and removable disk.
I checked that this morning, maybe I was too tired. I will check again this evening.
But if I am right and I cannot select my intel SSD (containing my arch setup) for the boot order, would the solution I described work ? I don't see why not but my knowledge are basic in Linux.
Thank you again for your help.
