Splash Screen Issues

I'm seeing some behavior I can't quite explain in regards to a Call by Reference node and some front panel updating. I have a splash screen which calls a vi (Launch.vi) which uses the factory pattern to load in my main screen and VI hierarchy. Also on the splash screen I have a loop which simply moves a status bar so the user gets to see something pretty while everything is loading up. Problem is that the progress bar doesn't start moving until everything has been loaded up, which is less than desirable.
Here's a video of my splash screen starting up. http://screencast.com/t/awwgq7ZtlsQ You can see that it sits idly for about 5 seconds then starts spinning up. Even my version indicator doesn't get updated until everything starts moving.
This is an image of the block diagram. When I put a probe on the i terminal of the top loop, the first value I see in the probe is somewhere >600, because it's not getting updated until all the action starts on the splash screen, which is after Launch.vi does it's business I'm pretty sure. Here's a video http://screencast.com/t/oWvqSxyB
So, why? What am I overlooking? I've tried about 40 different things to get this working how I want. Everything from using Start Asynchronous Call instead of Call by Reference, updating the slider in a different loop from the calculations. Getting rid of the notifier in the top loop. etc. etc.

I had a similar problem recently. I just did a quick test that you can see below and it confirms my original guess:
When I execute this, I can hear the "Beep" while my very large VI is loading. Similarly to what you describe, I cannot see "Numeric" update until after the VI is fully loaded. So, my guess is that the "Open VI reference" is somehow involved with the UI thread (or this could be internal to Windows) preventing the redraw (as well as any user input) until it is done with that action.
One way to work around this problem, but I have not tested it, is to create a list of the main subVIs and load them inidividually before loading the top level VI. Once the top level VI is loaded, close all the other references. You could load them one at a time inside a "For loop" with a "Wait 1ms" in between to release the CPU to process your GUI update.
Let me know what you find out, this is interesting

Splash Screen Landscape

Does anyone know how to fix the splash screen issue of the splash screen quickly shifting to the right and then back in place ?
I thought this would be fixed in 3.3

Can you provide details about the following :
1) The device you are using
2) Images you are packaging
3) If your app is full-screen or not
4) The launch orientation i.e. Portrait or Landscape

Z77A-GD65 Multiple BIOS Issues - B4 Hang, Splash Screen Blinking

Back in November 2012, I built a home server with a Z77A-GD65. Lately, I've noticed some strange things happening that I've been trying to research but to no avail.
First off, I get the B4 code hang-up whenever I'm booting. This doesn't matter if it's a cold boot or a reboot, it hangs on B4 for about 10-15 seconds, flashes 92 really quick, and then goes to A2 which it stays for another 5 or so seconds. After that I get the MSI splash screen for about 1 second, then it blinks 5 times. After that it goes into Windows just fine.
The blinking is a new issue, the B4 hang is not. I've read from multiple posts that this is a USB issue. When I disable USB legacy support, the issue goes away, but of course then I can't have legacy support. I have yet to figure out what exact device is causing it. In the process of trying to figure this out, I updated BIOS to A.A0. After updating to this version of BIOS the splash screen blinks 5 times before going to the "Starting Windows" splash screen. This is a more difficult issue to figure out why it's doing this because if you search for "BIOS" and "flash" or "flashes" or "flashing", you typically get results for flashing your BIOS. Hence, why I'm using the term "blinking". But even then I can't really find a solution out there.
I also happened to see that the website for the Z77A-GD65 is showing a newer BIOS version, but I'm unable to flash this (at least using M-Flash). I threw it on a USB, re-enabled USB legacy and whenever I click on it to install, the BIOS screen hard locks. The screen just freezes exactly where it's at in the BIOS and the mouse is dead. However, I can CTRL+ALT+DEL on the keyboard and it will reboot the system so I don't need to power cycle the computer. Not sure why this is happening either. Perhaps I need to flash this a different way? Maybe I don't need to flash this at all?
I could really use some input here on why this is happening.
As for the specs on my system, they're as follows:
i7-3770K overclocked to 4.2 Ghz by using the Turbo Mode in BIOS
32GB Komputerbay DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz DIMM with Low Profile Blue Heatspreaders Quad Channel RAM | 9-9-9-24 XMP ready

NZXT Switch 810 gunmetal - currently have 4 fans running but plan on more, also the Switch 810 has the multi-card reader in the front with 1x SD Card, 2x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.0
for peripherals
1 - Microsoft 360 Wireless controller adapter (legit one, not the knockoff although I had a knockoff prior to getting the real deal)
1 - Logitech Wireless USB Keyboard with Touchpad
I tried to be thorough. Thanks in advance for any help!

Probably a USB device problem.
This is a candidate, as well as mouse and keyboard. Disconnect USB devices one at a time to find the culprit.
A lot of devices running. PSU a +12V single rail or is it multi rail? A rail going to the graphics or components may not be enough amps. My best guess is the card reader.
For UEFI/BIOS flashing, select your mainboard here and use the forum flash method;
I'll definitely try unplugging some of these USB devices to see if that helps with the B4 hang issue.
As for the PSU, according to the description for it on Newegg: "Four industry-leading independent +12v rails are provided for more stable and safer power output." It has two rails going to the GPU. The GPU is a new addition to the system and so I wasn't running it until recently. The issues were occurring beforehand, but you're right that this PSU is underpowered for the rig considering PowerColor recommends a minimum of 500w. I'm going to be buying a larger capacity one sometime in the very near future. Any recommendations on good modular PSU's? What's a good way to tell what wattage to get?
Thanks for letting me know about the forum flash method. I'll be back later when I have some results.

Splash Screen Embed issue

hi
building app using Flex 4.6 with AIR 3.2 for iOS, i came across an issue with the Splash Screen on main application that on applying it and push the first view which loads an external swf having *Embedded images , the access Class for these Embedded images comes with an Error Type #1007 but on removing (do not apply) the Splash Screen from main application , the same code for Embedded Class runs fine.
am not understanding the connection between External Swf Embedded images and the splash screen. any help regaring the issue would be highly appreciated.
For reference:
Embedded Code in external swf file as follow:-
package
    import flash.display.Sprite;
import flashx.textLayout.compose.ISWFContext;
public class Slide1 extends Sprite implements ISWFContext
        [Embed("slide1/sldBg1.png", mimeType="image/png")]--------- the *Embedded image
        public static const bg:Class;
        [Embed("slide1/9_SmileyFace8.png", mimeType="image/png")] -------- the *Embedded image
        public static const pic96:Class;
        [Embed("slide1/slide1.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
        public static const slide:Class;
        public function callInContext(fn:Function, thisArg:Object, argsArray:Array, returns:Boolean=true):*{
             if (returns)
                     return fn.apply(thisArg, argsArray);
             fn.apply(thisArg, argsArray);

thanks in advance.

I absolutely position my other elements based on the location of the logo and the size of the logo and elements. I don't use any stackpanels or grids at all. I just use Canvas.LeftProperty and Canvas.RightProperty.
void PositionImage()
this.MySplashImage.SetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty, MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Left);
this.MySplashImage.SetValue(Canvas.TopProperty, MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Top);
this.MySplashImage.Height = MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Height;
this.MySplashImage.Width = MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Width;
this.MyProgressRing.Height = MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Height / 6;
this.MyProgressRing.Width = MyProgressRing.Height;
this.MyProgressRing.SetValue(Canvas.LeftProperty, MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Left + (MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Width / 2));
this.MyProgressRing.SetValue(Canvas.TopProperty, MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Top + MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Height - (.26 * MySplashScreen.ImageLocation.Height));

Audition 2.0 Startup Issues/Frozen at Splash Screen

Had a production worker come to me today noting that 2.0 was not stating up.
It is freezing on the splash screen.
Process shows Adobe at 50% and Sys Idle at 50%.
I can start and run any other program with no issues.
I uninstalled and reinstalled only to return to the same issue.
I also installed Audtion 1.5 and it runs fine.
Has anyone experianced anything similar or does anyone perhaps have an idea where I might start to look in order to resolve this?
It's run problem free for I don't know how long, one year plus.
I did have a NexGen issue today with the sound card, but donot see that as being linked in anyway.
Though I suppose it is curious that both picked today to fail.
Same sound card as before, nothing physical was swapped out, just reinstalled the driver.

Maybe try deleting the presets/preferences (after backing them up)
(usually found at C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\Audition\2.0

Splash Screen (vault) and Loupe issue

Back when Leopard and Time machine hosed my library, after recovering I noticed that the splash screen didn't give the visual indicator that a Vault update was in order (after introducing a new project, etc.). The initial Ap2 installation I though resolved that, but lately it's the same.
And then, every once in a while under Ap2, when I call up the loupe it's set at 512% (or some number in that area). I never invoke anything but 100% from the Loupe otherwise.
Anyone else notice the same? These are minor in the gist of issues, but still irksome.

Thanks for the reply and forgive me as I don't know too much about voltage ratings etc.
Yes, this is a fresh install, Win XP Pro with SP1
I did try moving the cards to different slots and still got the same problem (no card in slot 1).
My power supply reads as follows: Allied Model AL-A 400ATX REV:B MAX 400W
AC Input Voltage Current Frequency
115/230v 8A/4A 60/50Hz
MAX DC +3.3v +5v +12v -12v -5v +5vsb Blk Grn Gry
OUTPUT 24A 35A 12A .8A .5A 2A COM PS-ON PG
Comb PWR 190W 144W 9.6W 2.5W 10W Rtrn Remote POK
Is this enough info or do I need to look at the readings in the bios? If so, where do I look?
I even ordered a new card that I thought was the problem (sound card) and same problem. Any ideas?

Extended Splash Screen Layout Issue

I'm not sure, actually, whether this is an issue with extended splash screens or the Canvas element, but...
I've built a minimal extended splash screen that displays the SplashScreen image, a progress bar and a button. The ProgressBar and Button are wrapped in a StackPanel.
The PositionImage() method is working fine with screen resize--the logo always displays in the center of the screen. The problem that I have is positioning the other elements.
I'd like them to display just a bit below the SplashScreen image. Following the MS code sample, I can create two rows in the layout Grid and set a fixed size on the row containing the StackPanel, but that always displays those items the specified row size
from the bottom of the page. Way too low in portrait view.
I tried setting the first row (containing the Canvas) to "Auto", but that causes the StackPanel in the second row to display at the top of the screen. (Does Canvas not report its size?) I tried replacing the layout grid with a stackpanel, with
even worse results. Specifying height values for the Canvas doesn't work, either.
Any other ideas out there?

Boot issues with x79a-gd45 (8d) and n680gtx 4gd5/0c no bios splash screen

I have system
with
x79a-gd45 (8d) and
n680gtx 4gd5/0c
16gb ram out of 4 modules
vertex3 ssd
win7 64 en updated everything to the latest version.
during boot i get b2 b4 and 92 messages but not bios splash screen.
When doing a test with an old ati card the system shows splah screen all is fine.
I have 4 systems like this all behaving the same
any ideas

Hello I updated the bios, was not neccesarry but problems remains.
cleared the cmos several times.
I have to inform you that i'm building 4 similar systems all suffering from the same problem.
During boot there is a black boot screen not splash screen. and on the top left a cursor and in the bottom right b2 b4 and 92 messages.
When I install and old ati x1050pro all is ok during boot I see the splash screen and i'm able to enter the bios.
boot time approx 20 sec.
when running the system with the msi n680gtx boot times are back to 2 min and a long period with only the black boot screen and the bios codes.
As suggested I tested the card in a other system. Motherboard is asus. And voila I get a splash screen.
STRANGE THING IS THAT THIS SCREEN IS NOT RESISED BUT IS I GUESS 800 X 600 AND CENTERED IN THE SCREEN.
Also after several reboots I could not get a screen filled splash screen.
Can this be a video card bios issue ?

PXE issue : After pressing f12, front splash screen comes up...immediately reboots on one model PC

Good morning,
We just received 3 computers of the same series new Lenovo computers. When we try to pxe them, it hits our first splash screen...flashes "preparing network connection" and then sits still...nothing. After a few minutes, it will restart.
It never gets to the welcome screen asking for the PXE OSD password.
Can anyone help point me in the right direction? I was thinking it was NIC drivers, but I have loaded the drivers to the boot image but no change.
Thoughts?
Thank you so much!

Jason: no offense taken, i understand completely. The reason I say I loaded the drivers, is I have personally installed the exact drivers I injected into SCCM and it installed/worked in Windows. Are there other drivers that should be loaded other
than these for the boot image? I have verified the exact driver is in SCCM that I used in Windows...but still does not work.
When I do an ipconfig, it does NOT have an IP. Here's the smstslog:

Tecra M3 - Stuck at Toshiba BIOS Splash Screen

Not sure what to do here with this one...
Bit of history... we bought my niece a used laptop for surfing/movies which worked fine when I had it a few weeks setting it up and such, she had it a week and it's now dead. Some days it works, some days won't even turn on. So, after much work determined it to be a motherboard issue, and since it was a $200 DELL, we optedto buy another laptop.
I grabbed a used Tecra M3, been playing with it all week, games, surfing, you name it, seemed a gtood solid performer. I give it to her, she goes upstairs, plugs it in, powers on and just sits at the splash screen.
Two nephews have no issues with theirs, wondering if possible the power outlet surging and killing the systems? She's 16, so (hopefully) knows how to handle a laptop carefully.
Regardless... can't afford another dead laptop. Stuck at startup BIOS splash screen, won't go beyond that. Won't let me into the BIOS, and if I hit too many keeps too many times, laptop just beeps per keystroke.
Any advice?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, not much of a support forum... 2nd posting and neither issue I had had any responses at all.
In case someone see's this because having the same issue, the hard drive was very loose, barely making contact and fell off when I touched it. Pushed it all the way back in and works fine. Pegs on the panel designed to prevent the drive from becomming lose, not very good, still allowed the drive enough wiggle room to shake loose.

After Effects CS5.5 - Lion: Crash on splash screen EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGABRT)

So one day, out of the blue, After Effects stops wanting to open. The worst part is, I can't think of any changes that would have caused this.
I am running After Effects CS5.5 (10.5.1) on my MacBook Pro 13" (Early 2011), which is running Mac OSX Lion. Here is my system profile (with some sections omitted).
Just a few weeks ago, I began to consistently receive this message during the AE splash screen:
After Effects Alert
Last log message was: <140735295236448> <ASL.ResourceUtils.GetLanguageIDFromRegistry> <0> Unable to obtain the User 'Language' registry key at: Software\Adobe\After Effects\10.5.1\ Defaulting to 'en_US'.
Here is a crash log.
Any ideas?
First attempt
I figured maybe I had a bad preference file, so I cleared my prefs. Nothing changed aside from a modified error message:
After Effects Alert
Last log message was: <140735295236448> <DynamicLink> <5> 0x114ee8418
And a crash log.
Also, if I try opening AE again, after I cleared my prefs and opened it once, the error message returns to the "registry key" alert.
Second, third, fourth attempt
So I uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects about 3 times. No change. I used the latest download from Adobe, and the original Master Collection image: no difference.
Fifth attempt
I created a second admin account to see if this was an isolated issue. It isn't; same problem.
Sixth attempt
I thought about QuickTime, so I opened up System Prefs, and uninstalled Perian. I left the prefpane there though.
Also, I have the latest version of Java.
Seventh attempt (Added 19 March 2012)
I used the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to wipe out my entire Adobe installation. I still have the same problem after a reinstall. I'm going to try installing AE on my external drive next. This is really frustrating. Has anyone experienced this issue and found a resolution?
Notes
Interestingly enough, all of the other Abobe CS5.5 apps I installed work fine:
Bridge
Photoshop
Illustrator
InDesign
Premiere Pro
OnLocation
Extension Manager
Added 1:54PM, 13 March 2012:
Also, opening up the render engine causes the same error message.

I just installed AE, have never used it, and am seeing it bail on startup with the same odd language registry key error. Please see my post on a related thread.
Any luck here? Would be nice to get AE to boot so I could evaluate it.

BLACK SCREEN on start up with 3 beeps, FREEZES when power unplugged, IF IT BOOTS splash screen freezes, OVERHEATING REQUIRED TO BOOT - 0x7B, Event 41 kernel-power

Issue: One day I unplug the power, the screen freezes and I get frozen music sound. I shut down, start up, I get 3 beeps (1 short 2 long), which indicates a Video failure according to the Thinkpad Laptop beep code list.
How I solve the issue day-to-day: I turn the heat up - I disconnect the battery and hard drive and plug in the power then turn it on. I will wait until the underneath is searing hot with a blanket blocking the fan's flow of air, I mean way hot because any
cooler and it won't start. Plug stuff back in, Hard drive first, Battery second, turn off with power button hold, unplug power, replug power.
I turn it on, no beeps, it goes past the first Lenovo screen, then gives me a prompt because it "didn't shut down properly" and continue regular startup. What happens next is the Windows logo appears,
and just as the animated windows logo starts to move (you see 2 small colored dots on the screen), it freezes. I see this every time, I know naturally that it means that the laptop is still too hot to go past that point, so I shut it down and try again. After
about 5 - 10 tries it will go past the splash screen and into the login area, then it's all fine.
Sometimes when I unplug the power from the back by accident it will freeze. By accident I mean that the connector wiggles it's self out easily. This unplug freezing thing started happening about 1 week before the 3 beep black screen problem started rolling,
so I'm putting 2 together.
Errors:
I got a Blue Screen of Death the first time I started it up with the overheating ritual, but I never got it since. It was 0X7B.
I got another Blue Screen of Death about a week ago, but came as it was on already and I had been using it, and said something about disabling Cache or Shadowing in BIOS. I never got it since.
Event Viewer events found:
1. Kernel-Power, Summary page.
There are critical events for a few things like Kernel-Power, Event ID 41, Task Category (63). There are 19 of them, each day 1 or 2 of them but mostly 1, so this maybe corresponds to my daily ritual.
"The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."
2. Kernel-Processor-Power - Event ID 37, task category (7)
"The speed of processor 1 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware. The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report."
3. LMS - HCMI - Event ID 2, Task Category: none
"LMS Service cannot connect to HECI driver".
I came across a very sluggish performing control panel for Nvidia before and after this problem, and I tried installing a newer version, which I had to jump through a few hoops to do, like uninstalling first, not just updating. At first it said that the
driver wasnt for the system, which was wrong. I made it work somehow, but it was still sluggish. I rolled it back to an earlier driver, and now it works fine. No sluggish performance / slight freeze window thing going on.
MSCONFIG.exe, Boot Advanced Options: I have tried twice to change this 1 setting, check box "Number of processors" and change to 2 processors, because I do have 2 processors. I have been able to change
this in the past, but it does not save the setting now, and I believe this option was selected before I started having problems, and settings did not disappear then.
What could this be. The small round BIOS battery? The video card like everyone presumes? (I.E. the entire motherboard replacement), Software? The wiggly power input area? (Not enough power getting in?), Firmware of some sort? The BIOS software being wrong?

Please excuse the small text at the beginning, there isn't an option to un-do that error.

You are very wrong about that mystified. What do YOU think made my computer work without beeping at all hu? (I bet you're gonna tell me). I figured it out.
RE-INSTALL WINDOWS 7 OS.
SOLVED.
DOESN'T BEEP ANY MORE.
THAT IS A PART OF microsoft ISN'T IT.

Lightroom won't boot -I only get the splash screen for a second.

I do have the photographers version of the Creative Cloud which included Photoshop CC 2014 and Lightroom. Everything was working just fine until I upgraded to Lightroom version 5.6. Now when I try to load LR, the slash screen shows for a second then disappears and LR does not load. This occurs on both my Mac (a Mac Pro and a iMac). I uninstalled LR and had creative cloud reinstall but still the same thing is happening - Splash screen for a second then nothing. Again, this is happening on both Mac's. Photoshop CC 2014 I working just fine.
Before I call Adobe, any ideas here on this issue. BTW, Creative Cloud App states LR in up to date and installed.
Thanks
James

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit - No splash screen

I installed my licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended today as part of my install a bunch of software after a reinstall of Windows (due to viruses). I did a completely fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I've used Photoshop CS3 Extended for quite a while now so I know what to expect on startup but it was previously installed under Windows XP Professional (32-bit). Figured I would give Windows 7 a chance this time around.
Google searches aren't turning up anything. When I attempt to start the application, I get a window with the title "Adobe Photoshop CS3" (no "Extended" - I seem to recall the title changes later) and the toolbar appears. However, no splash screen appears and no Product Activation wizard appears - the application simply freezes on an empty frame and a toolbar. I've tried running Photoshop as Administrator (right-click, "Run As Administrator"), but nothing changed there. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I tried upgrading to CS3 10.0.1. Nothing works. The application simply freezes before it gets anywhere.
I tried calling Adobe Support since this technically falls under installation issues but their phone support systems are down today. Go figure.
Edit: I hooked into Photoshop with the Visual Studio debugger and every single thread is executing some variation of WaitForSingleObject() or WaitForMultipleObjects(). The main thread is "executing" somewhere in AdobeLM_libFNP.dll (at address 09619d81 - if I had debugging symbols for CS3, I could provide a function). There are nine threads "running" at the point the freeze occurs - but all of them are technically suspended due to the functions they are executing - and one thread is in a suspended state.

And, according to the Event Viewer, the "Binary" data translates to a zero-terminated Unicode string of "Cross-thread".
My Visual Studio analysis was far more informative. All threads are hung inside of WaitForSingleObject() and WaitForMultipleObjects() calls and the DLL in question appears to be FlexNet-related. I did forget to mention that I also even manually started the FlexNet service in case, for some strange reason, Photoshop was waiting for it to start. That also did not work.
(And there is nothing in the Action Center control panel either despite the message saying there might be more information there.)
Edit: The timestamp above might be a little odd-looking. I didn't originally see anything in Event Viewer until I clicked the first button to send an Error Report. Mostly I just skipped that part of killing a process.
