Solaris 10 does not see new RAM

Hello,
We have Solaris 10 (SunOS solaris 5.10 Generic_142910-17 i86pc i386 i86pc) on Compaq ProLiant ML350 G3 server (yes, that's old).
Originally it had 1024MB of RAM, but recently added 2x512 PC2100 DDR modules. Currently, BIOS counts up to 2 gigs of memory in POST screen, but Solaris seems like ignoring it:
#prtconf -v | grep Memory
Memory size: 1024 Megabytes
Some more info:
#prtdiag
System Configuration: Compaq ProLiant ML350 G3

So it says that two slots are empty, though in reality they aren't!
Currently (yet) I have no possibility to boot some kind LiveCD to check if, for example, Linux can see the memory - server is at distant office of a client...
What could this mean? Do I have to make Solaris to "refresh" hardware configuration somehow or should I try to reinstall it..?
Thank you!

  • Machine does not recognize new RAM

    OK I purchases some RAM from crucial.com Here is what I bought:
    CT442008 Upgrade for a Apple Power Mac G5 (Dual 2.3GHz DDR)
    I installed the software but unfortunatelyUnfortunately, the machine does not recognize the new RAM. Both of the slots are listed as EMPTY. My question is -- is there anyway to tell whether I installed in right? Also, is this the correct RAM to buy? I'm a little confused - I would be happy if you could help!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You don't have this 2.3 do you? The Dual Core? If so you have the wrong RAM.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP37
    If it's the right RAM for your machine make sure the side snaps are up when you put it in and press the RAM in firmly until you hear and see those snaps close down completely. Once your sure the RAM is seated well check again in System Profiler to see if it shows up.
    If it doesn't, shut down your mac. As the Hatter said, start up your mac again and hold these keys down until you hear the chime for a second time: Command, Option, P, R. Four keys total until the second chime. Then when it starts up fully go back into System Profiler and see if it shows up.
    If that still doesn't do it, shut down your Mac and pull the plug, open up your mac and touch one of those little back plates on the back where your video card is (static electricity) and press the PMU button as described on this page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1436
    Remember sometimes it can take a good deal of pressure to seat RAM. Just don't go crazy. But first make sure, looking at the top article, that that isn't the model you have. If it is *do not* try to seat that RAM.

  • Macbook does not see new hard drive

    I have one of the first black macbooks...
    Intel Core Duo
    2GHZ
    2mb L2 Cache
    2GB RAM
    667 MHz bus
    Boot ROM Version: MB11.0061.B03
    SMC Version 1.4f12
    I had an 80GB HD in it that has died.  I decided to replace it with a WD Scorpio Blue 160GB.
    I've booted to the optical drive and went into Disk Utility to format the new drive but the computer would not recognize the drive.  So I formatted it with another computer using a USB enclosure.  I put the new HD back and still not recognized. 
    I then went ahead and installed Snow Leopard on the new drive via USB enclosure, using the macbook I would eventually put the drive into.
    Now when I put the new drive, with the OS installed, still not reco

    Let us resume the required steps, after putting inside a new, virgin disk:
    1. Start up machine and as soon as possible put CD/DVD, press key C to force boot from CD; if the sequence is not fast enough and machine passed over the initial phase, and ? was displayed, force shut down by pressing button key, then start again, with CD/DVD inside
    2. Press key C after start, and wait until the Apple logo in displayed, wait
    3. You will see a list of install language, choose one, and
    4. Go to Apple bar and choose Disk Utility; on the left side, you will see the disk, select it, then, on the cenral-lower part of displayed windows go to Options and choose Apple Partition Map (APM), go back and choose, if not already chosen by default, Mac OS Extended Journaled (HFS+), 1 partition (or more, some prefer more than one), click to partiion/erase disk. Note that you MUST have both conditions achieved: APM and HFS+
    5. Close Disk Utility and revert to installation proper, proceed.
    If you do not see the disk on the left side of Disk Utility, then disk is damaged or badly connected.
    P.S. The same procedures are applied to any disk, with the note that:
    - for Intel Macs, partition map should be GUID, not APM
    - for external disks or flash drives intended to smoothly work with Windows, format should be FAT 32 and Master Boot Record; NTFS may be done with an additional utility like NTFS-3G or NTFSmounter

  • Satellite L30-105 (PSL33E) Windows Vista does not see DVD-ram UJ-850s

    Hi
    I have a Satellite L30-105 (PSL33E) with windows Vista. Windows Vista doesn't recognize the DVD-ram any more. The BIOS recognize the DVD-ram. I did try to download the DVD-ram drivers but they are not on the side of Toshiba.
    Who can help me to get the right driver or know more? From the problems with the Mat****a DVD-ram uj-850s ATA device and windows Vista.

    Hi
    The CD/DVD drive does not need special drivers!!!
    The Vista includes a Microsoft driver which works with all ODDs (CD/DVD drives)
    Simply said, the Vista should recognize the drive without any problems.
    Some questions; did you get any error messages? What is the device manager status? Do you see any yellow exclamation marks?
    There is an old way to fix a similar drive issue. It worked under XP so try it on Vista OS.
    Its necessary to update the registry entry
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    1. Click on the start menu.
    2. If this is a Vista machine in the search box type in regedit without the quotation marks.
    3. search the registry key mentioned above.
    4. In the right panel youll see something along the lines of UpperFilter and LowerFilter you want to click on each filter key and hit delete. Click yes when it asks to confirm if you wish to delete the key.
    5. Restart Windows.
    6. Let me know if this works.

  • Win7 install does not see new hard drive (640gb Samusung) on MacBook Pro

    Replaced MBP 5,4 (mid 2009) hdd with a Samsung HM641JI 640gb drive. OS X installation went fine using SL install disk, updated software to 10.6.4. Problem is with Windows 7 installation using Boot Camp. Partition is created (tried 32 to 300 gb). Windows 7 install disk loads but after "Install now" and accepting license agreement, it does not recognize the drive or any partitions. XP install works fine. Had same Win7 problem with 2 identical hdds and 3 different install disks which were full version, not upgrades. Installed Win7 using boot camp on 320 gb Samsung drive (also 3.0gb/s SATA) without a problem. Tried formatting the bootcamp partition on the 640 gb drive to NTFS, but still not recognized. Any suggestions?

    Odd you can't see anything. I'd use Windows 7 recovery tools to do a full initialize and map out bad blocks if necessary. Or initialize from OS X drive and then do full slow format etc from Windows DVD.
    Every drive vendor has their own linux/dos/windows utility to recertify and test sectors and does a better job than anyone else's. WD Lifeguard for all my WD drives, can be very handy.

  • FCE does not see new files

    I Have recently purchased a HD camcorder (panasonic HDC TM900) the first couple of times I used it and connected it to my Imac I was able to transfer footage without any problem using the Log and Transfer however. I have used the camera a little more and now when I connect it Iphoto opens up. I then close it and open FCE and find that the 2 existing files are shown but not any after that. Can I set it so that FCE opens rather the Iphoto and why can I not see my new footage?

    Hi,
    Next time iPhoto launches go to File>Preferences>General and set Connecting camera opens to No application, as shown below.
    I don't know if this will sort out the missing video issue but it will stop iPhoto launching.

  • N80 - Music Player does not see new tracks in musi...

    I updated my N80 with the latest firmware last week. I recently added fur new tracks to my phone. I can see the track in the gallery under tracks but when I go to the music player, and into the music library the tracks are not there, even if i say update music library it tells me 0 tracks updated/added. Please help.

    To the guys who posted earlier... have you found the solution for this problem?
    My N80 has been updating fine until two days ago when i uploaded new songs... the tracks get in but the music library doesn't update these new tracks in, it would register 0 added tracks then after the update it would say that there are no tracks in at all... you need to get out of the music player first & reenter it to see the tracks that were already there before the new ones... if i try to remove tracks, the update works fine & would record the removed tracks... what is wrong????
    Please somebody, help!

  • Migration Assistant Problem: Old MacBook Pro does not see new MacAir

    I have a brand new MacAir (OSX 10.7 and a 4 year old Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6)...trying to use Migration Assistant using Wifi, they're both on my network, but the new MacAir can "see" the old Macbook, but the old Macbook doesn't "see" the new MacAir...the wheel just keeps spinning as it tries to find another computer to migrate to but it just never sees it.  What am I doing wrong or what can I do to fix this problem?  Thanks!

    Sounds like there are two issues:
    1.  The Migration should start from the "To" computer asking for the stuff from the "From" computer.  Sounds like you're doing it the other way.
    2.  The MacBook Air isn't visible.  Correct that by going to System Preferences ---> Sharing on your MacBook Air and see if things look good there.  You should at least see a message near the top starting with "Computers on your local network can access your computer ..."

  • Printer does not see new network in Setup Assistant - Photosmart C4385

    I changed routers, so have a new network SSID. Have pinter connected to a Mac with USB cable. Want to set up wireless access to printer. In HP Setup Assistant the error message first says "No WiFi Network Discovered". I try the option to type in teh name of teh network but receive error message "Network Unavailable - The selected Wi-Fi network "(my network name)" is not within reach of the device. But the printer is only 25 feet from the touter and immediately next to the Mac which is connected to the Wi-Fi network.
    In Wireless menu I selected "Wireless Radio ON". TEst configuration page shows Radio On, Radio Working, but Network Name (SSID) Not applicable.

  • Solaris does not see second cpu

    I have put together the following system:
    Asus A7M266-D mobo
    2 - Athlon MP 1.6+ cpus
    2 - 512 MB DDR PC2100
    Maxtor 60 gb hd
    Matrox G450 agp video
    mpstat shows only cpu 0. Any thoughts on how to get both cpus running?
    Allen

    Allen,
         What does the following command indicate:
    psrinfo -v.
    Do a man page on mpstat and I think you'll find out that this display shows cpu sets! In a multiple cpu machine, CPU's can be grouped into "sets". Unless there is a defination to group otherwise, a dual processor machine will indicate only one "set".

  • ITunes does not see new Event from iPhoto

    I imported photos from Halloween into iPhoto on my iMac with the intention of displaying them on my AppleTV. In the iTunes - AppleTV - Photos sync page (that displays Photos, Events, Faces) all but the most recent Events are present. I tried "Last Import" and even combined the photos with another Event that was already synced with the AppleTV but the photos did not show up (nor did the number of photos in the combined event increase). I am stumped.
    I have deleted the com.apple.iPhoto.plist and com.apple.iPhoto.LSSharedFileList.plist files, but there was no improvement. I have updated all versions of the programs and rebooted the computer and AppleTV. Still nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I've figured out why it's not working, just not sure the absolute correct way to fix it. The albumdata.xml file is wrong. When I moved from /users/michael/iphoto to /volumes/data/iphoto, only 400 of the pictures metadata changed. Most of them stayed as /users/michael/iphoto in the albumdata.xml file. To "change" them in the .xml, (I wouldn't call it a fix) is I selected all the pictures and did a batch change of Title to Filename. That worked for me, because my pictures titles were the filenames, but if you rename the titles, you might have to find another way. Directly modifing the albumdata.xml file won't work. It's overwritten each time. This link helped me figure the problem out.

    I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule).  I want to erase my old one.  My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem).  I want to erase it and then use it as either a second hard drive (sired/sirelesly?) or as a hard drive/bridge.  So,

    1. Because it is either the same IP as the new one or hidden by being plugged in as a second router.
    To access it, isolate one computer from the existing network and plug it directly by ethernet to a lan port of the TC. Use the erase function in the TC to remove all the content of the hard disk.
    Then go to the internet tab, connection sharing and select off bridged. You can then reconnect the TC to the network.. and the computer as well. The TC will act as bridged device.. getting IP from the main router and should then appear correctly in Airport utility.
    2. I covered in 1. But you just go in airport utility manual setup. disk, and you will see the erase function. You can also set it to bridge and leave the erase until you put it back in the network.. but be careful you erase the right one.
    3. You can use the old TC via wired or wireless.. although I would always stick to wired connection if possible. Speed on wireless is 10x worse than wired.
    Also note the reliability goes down dramatically after 2 years.. a series 1 3 years old or more is ebay fodder unless you want to repair it. Do not trust vital data to it.. when it dies you will have issues recovering it.
    4. Yes, all apple routers will function as wireless extenders. when you do that the ethernet ports turn off so it becomes a purely wireless device.. strange apple decision on what you want to use your TC for.

    Hi, Robert. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes.  iTunes does not "see" the devise.  Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop.  Also bought new USB cable.  The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.

    Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista).  iTunes does not "see" the device.  Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop.  Also bought new USB cable.  The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.  Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.

    OK.  You merely erased the content and settings.  The IOS is still there.
    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures.  From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.
