Start up problems for my pc

Desktop computer: Product no. KQ497AA-ABA
Operating system: Windows Vista
Question: Does anyone know how to fix startup issues when you have to push the button on the top of the computer to turn on and off a lot of times to get the computer to move from the blue HP screen (the one for escape to start, system recovery etc.) and load? Also, my computer will not stay on more than 10 or 15 minutes. It will shut off and try to restart, leaving it stuck on the blue screen again. I'd sure appreciate any help!

  • Start up problems, including from installation disc.

    Hello everyone in the Apple ether, I need your help!
    I have a powerpc based iMac G5 at home that I set up for my mum to use once I bought my macbook. I finally managed to win her over with talks of how much easier it would be for her to manage her photos in iPhoto, and everything was going really well. I recently came home after my final year at uni and some travelling to find that the computer is taking a long time to start up. This can be in both the grey apple loading screen but also once it logs in it can take a long time to display anything over than the desktop background, and even once it displays other items any attempt to open anything just results in a spinning wheel icon. At the worst case it has taken about 20 minutes to get going.
    Once it has fully booted, the machine doesn't appear to be working any slower than normal. I tried using disk utility in mac OSX and verifying permissions etc and that didn't do anything. I then tried googling the problem and came across this article on the apple web site. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
    Starting in Safe Mode did not resolve the issue so after backing everything up I tried starting from the installation disc. This is not something I have ever done before and as someone that never really delves beneath the surface of her machines I was a bit scared of doing it. But I put the disc in and restarted and held down C just after I heard the chime, and shortly after it all went wrong. The screen went grey and all I could see was the image you get when it crashes (you know, the power sign with text over it saying you need to restart) with lines of code all down the left of the screen. I took a photo of the screen on my camera so can give details of the code if you need them. The last line said
    Kernel version:
    Darwin Kernel Version 8.8.3: Wed Oct 18 22:00:38 PDT 2006; root:xnu-792.15.4.obj-4/RELEASE_PPC
    panic: We are hanging here...
    After a few minutes on this screen the fan started working overtime and after about 5 minutes of that I just turned it off using the power button on the back. The machine has since started up normally (ie slowly) but is working fine.
    So I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how to fix the slow start up problem without booting from my install disc, or indeed if anyone could suggest why I can't boot from my install disc? Thanks very much for your time and help.

    It appears you experienced a kernel panic which is hardware related. A few suggestions for you to try:
    Except for the keyboard & mouse, disconnect all devices from the computer & try the suggestions mentioned in the following:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106805 Mac OS X: "Broken folder" icon, prohibitory sign, or *kernel panic* when computer starts
    User Tips: Kernel Panics
    ==============
    Boot up from your Tiger or Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
    Select the language you wish to use, and then choose *"Disk Utility"* from the menu bar.
    Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the *"repair disk"* button in the right hand section of the window.
    Once this process has been completed restart your computer and run *repair permissions* from Disk Utility.
    * If Disk Utility (from the install DVD or HD)is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.

  • Start up problems with G4 powerbook

    hello all,
    My Powerbook appears to start up fine, but about 3 mins after my desktop appears the system freezes. I can open applications in the first few mins but no mater what I do after a couple of mins the spinning ball appears. When this happens I can't even use the keyboard commands such as force quit.
    What I find particularly odd, is that when the computer freezes it continues to sound like its processing something, but the only thing I can do is shut down the computer and restart it.
    There is plenty of space on the hard drive and I do regular disk utilities and use mac janitor, so there appears to be no clear hardware or software problems.
    Any suggestions as to what wrong would be very welcome!
    Thanks!

    Activity Monitor is a good place to start.
    Can you relate the problem to your starting up a particular application?
    What happens if you log in and don't start any applications for, say, 5-10 minutes?
    Have you been getting crash reports when you log back in? You might try to use that three minutes to look at the most recent crash log (in ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/). Whatever application's log is most recent may point you in the right direction.
    Also, you can access the console log through the Console utility (in the Applications/Utilities folder). That may tell you what was the last thing your Mac thinks it was doing.
    Let us know what you find.

  • What is the Firefox start page looking for when it tells me I'm not using the most current version and need to update Firefox? The check for updates button says my version is up to date, but the start page disagrees. Is there a setting I need to adjust?

    Okay: My start page is the one Google provides: http://www.google.ca/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official and frequently it has a note underneath the search box that "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!" But when I check for updates on the About Firefox window, it says my Firefox is up to date. So what is the start page looking for? Is there some setting I need to adjust? Or is this a Google marketing ploy to get me to switch to Chrome?

    I tentatively think I have the solution; this is for when the session id value 'thing', in about:config, referred to in other answers is already on the default/rest state.
    I am assuming, I don't what to imply certainty in-case there is a value wrong in our browsers, that the problem stems from the fact that our homepage is no longer the default for Firefox.
    So, go to 'Options'>'General' and delete the homepage. This will reset it to the new address, which is 'about:home'.
    I hope this helps some people.

  • Start a workflow for a list item that was created by someone else

    What settings do I need to change so that I can start a workflow for a list item created by another user?
    I have a SharePoint 2013 workflow (let's call it LSR Status Workflow) that is associated with a list (called
    LSR List). When a user creates an item in the LSR List, it automatically starts the
    LSR Status Workflow. That is what I wanted, but sometimes I make changes to the workflow (via SharePoint designer) and then I would want to terminate the existing workflows that are running and restart them.
    When I try to start a workflow for anyone other than a list item that I created, I get the following error:
    Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled in less than one minute. Details of last request: HTTP NotFound to https://publishing.web.company.com/sites/mysite/_vti_bin/client.svc/web/lists/getbyid(guid'1f844b8f-19aa-4587-bcc2-dfb7085f36b5')/Items(31)

    Then when the workflow is finally suspended after it keeps retrying, it reports the following error:
    RequestorId: 8efc5304-f0a3-90f6-0000-000000000000. Details: An unhandled

    If I created the list item, I can stop it and restart it without any problems, but this is not the case for list items created by someone else.
    What settings do I need to change so that I can start a workflow for a list item created by another user? I am the owner of the SharePoint site and am able to make changes to permissions if needed.

    You don't need to re-do the fields. If you create a new version of the PDF
    file just open the old one and use the Replace Pages command to insert the
    pages from the new version over the old ones. This will give you a new
    version of the file, with the existing form fields still in tact. Of
    course, you might need to adjust their location and/or size, but at least
    you won't have to start all over again...

  • Change transaction using BDC-problem for large number of lines on screen

    Hi All,
    I am developing BAPI (using BDC) which creates quality notification in SAP which is entered via front end web application. Structure p_qmsm contain 3 lines of task in notification. The code is as given below. To avoid problem of large no of lines on screen,code lines starting with * is used. This actually for pagedown after entering every 2 lines and creates new line. so that 2 lines always push up on screen and there will not be problem for creating large no of lines on screen
    perform bdc_dynpro using 'SAPLIQS0' '7200'.
    perform bdc_field using 'BDC_OKCODE' '=10\TAB11'.
    LOOP AT p_qmsm INTO wa_qmsm.
    *IF wa_qmsm_cntr > 2.
           wa_qmsm_cntr = 2.
           perform bdc_dynpro  using 'SAPLIQS0'                   '7204'.
           perform bdc_field   using 'BDC_OKCODE'                 '=PEND'.
    ENDIF.
    perform bdc_dynpro using 'SAPLIQS0' '7204'.
    perform bdc_field using 'BDC_OKCODE' '/00'.
    CONCATENATE 'VIQMSM-QSMNUM(' wa_qmsm_cntr ')' INTO wm_qmsm_qsmnum.

    wa_qmsm_cntr = wa_qmsm_cntr + 01.
    ENDLOOP.
    CALL TRANSACTION 'IQS2' USING wt_bdc
    MODE 'N' UPDATE 'A'  MESSAGES INTO P_MESSTAB.
    The same code is used in modify mode also. web application is sending all 3 lines in modify mode even if single line is modified. It is already decided to send all rows back from web application to SAP in same sequence. It is working fine if i comment 5 lines which is starting with *. But in modify mode, how can i ensure that correct row is modified? and how can i achieve problem of large no of lines on screen?Please suggest?

    Hi yogesh,
    how can i ensure that correct row is modified?
    1. For this we need to know two things ;
       a) the database table in which the entries are already stored
       b) the sequence in which they are displayed in the transaction.
    2. So before changing any line, we need to compare (the primary key values / important values)
       a) as per the database table and as per the incoming data from web application (using bapi)
      b) if the match is ok, it means that particular row was not modified, else modified.
    how can i achieve problem of large no of lines on screen?
    1. For this I am  not sure about the transaction and its screen. Manytimes for appending row on the screen,
      there is a PLUS + button on the grid toolbar. So for every entry, (inspite of some empty/filled rows already visible on the screen), we should use the + button, and this new row always appears on the top i.e. row number 1.
    hope this helps.
    regards,
    amit m.

  • Some applications starting slowly / hang for a minute after launching

    Hi!
    For some time now, some applications are starting really slowly. The ones I could identify by now are Apple Pages, Microsoft Excel and Wofram's Mathematica. When I click the respective icon to start the application, the dock symbol jumps and everything looks fine, the system doesn't hang but when the just started application is active (its name appears on top, next to the Apple logo), the mouse cursor turns to the famous spinning beach ball when I move it to the top of the screen. The same happens when I just close an Document and create a new one (when all Pages documents are closed, the program presents all the templates; when I choose one, it hangs).
    This behaviour doesn't appear everytime, but very often, so it is repeatable. I can't identify some point in time when this started, I don't think it has something to do with the 10.4.6 or 10.4.7 update. Pages is the newest version, as is Excel. Mathematica is version 5.2.0. I absolutely have no idea where to start to look for a reason for all this. I hope that someone here can help me!
    Thanks in advance,
    Marco

    Hi!
    Thanks for your answer too!
    1) Run Disk Utility and Repair Permissions on your hard drive.
    Did that, some permissions were corrected (as always...)
    2) Boot from your Tiger install disc and run Disk Utility and use the Repair Disk option on your hard drive.
    After checking the disk, the Utility said that everything is fine.
    1) You mentioned that this problem has been going on
    for some time now. Can you think of any software
    that you installed or software that you updated at
    the time that you first noticed this behavior?
    Unfotunately, I can't. This started about 3-4 weeks ago but I absolutely can't remember installing or doing something special that falls into the same region of time.
    2) Do you run any kind of system hacks/optimizing software?
    No, not as far as I know. I don't think that I ever installed some piece of software that really alters something in terms of the system itself (except for TinkerTool System, but I didn't start that in months)
    3) What programs do you typically have open all of the time?
    Mail and Safari are running all the times; other applications I'm using frequently are TextWrangler, X11, XCode, Terminal and World of Warcraft, among others.
    (Almost) Sure Fire Solution to this problem: [...]
    I knew that this was coming up
    Of course, a complete reinstall is a solution I don't really like. I got my iBook last October, so this installation is running for 9 months now. But as everything else is fine, I really don't want to format my HD and do it the hard way.
    By the way: I tried a few more applications and surprisingly, Apple Keynote, MS Word and MS Powerpoint don't hang after starting up. I also deleted all iWork and MS Office related stuff in ~/Library/Preferences and still no luck...

  • Photo Gallery start up problem

    I have a glitch and it's probably me … but here's what
    I know.
    About Don Booth's Photo Gallery:
    It's great. Everything is good - integrated with my CSS -
    looks nice.
    When the page loads all is well except the first image in the
    Gallery does not display in <div id="mainImageOutline"... (and
    the first thumbnail is not highlighted). While I'm building and
    testing this is OK. Just click a thumbnail and everything works
    well.
    In the demo, the Gallery is operational by default and starts
    up with the first thumbnail and Spry:detail produces the
    corresponding image (automatically). That's what I want.
    About my code:
    Except for a couple of "page layout" divs that I have,
    consistent with my own site-wide style sheet conventions, such as
    <div id="wrapper"> and <div id="maincontent"> I have:
    1. Copied Don Booth's xhtml code directly from the
    Spry_1_1_022408 download sample.
    2. Copied Don Booth's css code directly from the same
    download sample.
    3. Copied Don Booth's gallery.js directly (without change as
    far as I know).
    The only significant change (apart from CSS and xhtml
    structure) in my work is - I added an additional Spry:detail div to
    present additional datapoints from xml. This is not relevant to my
    question because the issue that concerns me is consistent if I
    remove this second detail div. The start-up problem remains.
    The URL for the gallery page in question is:
    http://www.yhqg.org/Celebration/quiltshow2008/galleryix/gallery.htm
    I imagine the problem is in gallery.js. You should know that
    javascript is a bit like dungeons and dragons to me.
    I have an error report:
    Error: dsPhotos is not defined
    Source File:
    http://www.yhqg.org/Celebration/quiltshow2008/galleryix/includes/gallery.js
    Line: 55
    So, when I see:
    var gAutoStartSlideShow;
    if (gAutoStartSlideShow == undefined)
    gAutoStartSlideShow = true;
    I imagine I'm looking at something useful but I don't know
    what to do with it, or if it is the right code to focus on. I
    respect the relationship with level 4 support engineers, but after
    trying to solve my own issue for a few weeks I decided it was time
    to submit my question. How do I get Photo Gallery to start up like
    the demo?
    Additional information:
    There is also a series of error reports that show when the
    Gallery is playing (for example):
    Warning: Expected end of value for property but found
    '-0.0775'. Error in parsing value for property 'opacity'.
    Declaration dropped.
    Source File:
    http://www.yhqg.org/Celebration/quiltshow2008/galleryix/gallery.htm
    Line: 0
    I don't think it is related, but that's what I know.
    I tried to copy my xhtml (below) but it caused this message
    to exceed allowed size. But I don't see that xhtml is the problem.
    You can see the source at the URL (above).

    Hi Latauro,
    Sounds like you need to turn your Slideshow into a Track, and then set the Track to display as 16:9 Letterbox; but first, you'll also need to encode your slides as wide Mpeg 2 clips (encode set to 16:9), too; to whatever duration you have them set in the Slideshow, currently (if they're not already wide encoded clips).
    It would be good to stick some same duration audible or silent same format and bit rate audio underneath each of the new movie slides, to present players a nicely packed VOB.
