System check on Satellite 5000-104

how can i check weather my system has any major problems?

Hi Gary,
That's a very general question and to be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure how best to answer! What sort of problems did you have in mind? As a general rule, things like viruses and spyware are best checked for using specific ant-virus and anti-spyware software.
As for "broad" system problems (for example the graphics card not working properly or a printer not correctly installed), you can get a quick overview from Control Panel, opening "System" and selecting the Hardware tab, then the Device Manager button.
This will open up a long-ish list of stuff like hard drives, usb ports, displays etc. Don't worry too much about understanding all of the items on the list, some of the system devices are a little obscure! Anything not enabled (so the system doesn't even try to use them) will have a little red "x" next to it, anything with a problem will have a little yellow "warning triangle" next to it.
For the most part, bugs or glitches in the oprating system only show up when a specific peice of code tries to run, and it would be near-on impossible to write a program that can effectively test for all possible combinatins of everything, so its best to deal with these as you encounter them.
I hope this helps, if you have any specific problems, post away on the forums and we'll see what we can do to help!

  • How to connect my Satellite 5000-104 to a TV?

    Hi, hopefully someone can help. I've got an old Toshiba S5000-104 which works perfectly. However, I wanted to connect it to a TV display and there is a very strange combined video-out/line out connector (not a standard composite or s-video) and I do not know the kind of cable which would be needed for connection. If anybody knows, your help would be hugely appreciated!
    Thanks
    R

    For me it is not strange but very good solution because with this cable you can send video and audio signal to the TV. This cable on one side has jack like on headphones and on other side three chinch ports: yellow for video signal and red/white for sound.
    I really do not know if you can get it by your local dealer but I am pretty sure you can get one by authorized service partner. Unfortunately I was not able to find picture of this cable.

  • Question about CPU upgrade for Satellite A30-104?

    Hello,
    My Satellite A30-104 has recently come to the end of its warranty, and having had to open up the heatsink for cleaning and seeing that the CPU was accessible, I wonder if there is any (likely) scope for upgrading it.
    The processor is a Celeron (Northwood) 2.6GHz. I'm not looking for more grunt, I'd prefer a lower-power chip, though the much larger L2 cache of a Pentium 4 is also desirable. I'd be very grateful if anyone could advise whether any upgrades are likely available, and if so which chips would be appropriate? If I can give any more useful spec information, please ask.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, thanks for the reply -- and sorry it went ignored so long, it turns out I hadn't configured my email watches correctly :(
    I appreciate that it's really a job for a technician, and I don't want to brick a perfectly good computer, but I think its EOL is not far off anyway so I'm prepared to be a little more invasive than before.
    I know that I can get at the CPU, and I know the basic precautions for physically tampering with PC internals.
    What I'm first of all concerned about is this: if I replace the CPU, and it doesn't function with the laptop, can this damage other parts of the system such that it'd no longer work by replacing the original?
    The Celeron puts out a great deal of heat (all the time) but isn't it fair to assume that a P4-M will be less hot?

  • Satellite M30-104 - Cannot set a right resolution on external monitor

    Hi everyone,
    I've got a Satellite M30-104 with a nvidia GeForce FX5200.
    It works well but when I plug a external monitor in, which is a wide screen 1440*900, I can't set the good resolution, even if I install the last driver.
    What can I do?
    Thanks

    Hi
    First of all you have to check in your user manual if your graphic card would support such external resolution.
    But note; you will be not able to choose this resolution if the graphic driver doesnt contains it, even though this resolution would be supported by graphic card.
    As you see two facts are important: graphic driver and graphic card have to support this resolution if you want to use it.

  • The user name or password is incorrect in the CRM system checks during installation

    Hi everyone
    I'm installing CRM 2013 on 2 servers (server 2012) - CRM Full server + SQL Server 2012.
    I created 2 service accounts for this - CRMSVC + CRMSANDBOX (one for sandbox and another one for all the rest).
    I'm getting the following error in the system checks during setup:
    I've verified a billion times that the service accounts and passwords are valid - I even tried using different service accounts - same problem. As for now I also added the service accounts to the local admins groups just to be sure that it's not some permissions
    issue (I also added them to the 'log on as service' & performance logs groups). 
    If i try to use NETWORK SERVICES instead of a service account - the installation goes through flawlessly - no issues at all.
    I'm also gonna say that i tried another installation on a fresh server - SAME ISSUE.
    So for now my ideas are either it's a GPO somehow blocking the service accounts - or some kind of other security issue.
    I also found out that the security event log shows these two errors when these show up in the system checks:
    Inside i found 'NULL SID' entry - it does not recognize the service accounts account and 0xC0000064 in the Sub
    Status Codes
    It's not a typo issue so don't bother - if i write a wrong password in purpose - it actually says that the password i typed for domain\service account is incorrect - here it seems that the service account is not being recognized.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks

    Not sure you understood my point.
    The installation process necessarily runs under the account of the installing user. The installation will query AD to identify information about the service accounts, and will add them to the relevant CRM AD groups. It is possible that the installing user
    account does not have sufficient privileges on the AD objects for the service accounts to be able to identify them, and to add them to groups. This scenario is consistent with the errors that you get, and also with being able to install CRM to run under NetworkServices
    (which doesn't have its own AD object)

    Hi David
    I understand this, but as far as i know running it under NETWORK SERVICES will add the machine names to the OU security groups - hence the user installing still needs to have delegated permissions on that OU. Anyway as mentioned above - ignoring the checks
    and running the installation solved this and also added the accounts to the security groups - so this whole mess looks like some bug to me - not sure i will ever find out what it was :)

  • Trying to load CS3 Design Premium on a new machine; it's blocked by system check.

    I'm trying to load CS3 Design Premium on a new laptop. The system check is preventing InDesign from loading. It inaccurately indicates I don't have great enough resolution. Does anyone have a workaround?
    I have a PC running Windows 7 OS.
    I've done the following:
    Adjusted the resolution to maximum resolution and also to the value Adobe recommends. Both without success.
    Used Adobe cleaner, restarted, and tried to reload. No luck. InDesign and Illustrator are still prevented from loading due to resolution ((1024 X 768).
    Ideas, tips, and workarounds appreciated!

    Jane, please turn off the autoquote in you email when replying.
    I've installed it on two CS3 win 7 machines with wide-screens without incident. Are you running the installer from disk or a download? The CS3 installers was pretty finicky, as I recall, and you may need to perform a "clean boot" to get it to work. See How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista
    You can also see the tips I gave to my students when I was teaching and CS3 was new: https://www.hightail.com/download/bWJwSXQ4NDI4NVVPd3NUQw

  • Serial Number validation during Delivery Creation itself(PGI-system checks)

    Process:
    Sales Order PR(Purchase Order) GR( New Serial Numbers are created automatically or manually keyed in)
    Once the Goods Receipt is received, we do the (SO) DELIVERYu2014SERIAL NUMBER ASSIGNMENT Post Goods Issue
    Issue:
    Current Serial Number Profile Management does not do a valid serial number check during DELIVERY CREATION where we do a SERIAL NUMBER ASSIGNMENT.
    Only during POST GOODS ISSUE, the check happens for valid serial numbers; this is too late in the game for business as there is a time lag of 3 days from the DELIVERY CREATION and PGI.
    Reason being--- We donu2019t check the following u201C Existing Stock Checku201D( which does a serial number validation during delivery creation as well)
    SPRO>Plant Maintenance and Customer Service>Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service>Technical Objects>Serial Number Management>Define Serial Number Profiles
    If we check this option, the business requirement to do a valid serial number check does happen during delivery creation, however we cannot create new serial numbers during Purchase Order- GOODS RECEIPT.
    QUESTION:
    Can we have the system check the valid serial numbers from stock during delivery creation and serial number assignment.
    And Also create new serial numbers during Purchase Order- Goods Receipt.

    Hi
    1.In std SAP its not possible to check the serail number during Delivery creation, through enhancement it can be done.
    2.During GR for PO serial numbers can be created.

  • Pay Cycle Manager system check payments with Financial Gateway?

    Can PeopleSoft Payables Pay Cycle Manager be used to system check payment information Financial Gateway? Per PBooks "The Pay Cycle Manager only settles payments of EFT, ACH, and WIR payment methods through PeopleSoft Financial Gateway." However, can the process be configured or modified in some way to also accommodate system checks?
    The client is not producing system checks from PeopleSoft Payables but, rather, using a 3rd-party application (MHC) to administer system check printing, ACH and credit card payments, and 1099 reporting. The desire to define those system check payments administered via MHC as system checks in PeopleSoft, although truly none are being produced from within PeopleSoft.
    By leveraging the Payment Request process payment information is created that can not only be sent to MHC but any target system that also requires payment information. A number of other internal systems also require this information and my intent is to use the data that is staged in Financial Gateway as a standard data structure for any target system which requires the data. However, as mentioned above, the payment information needs to include all payment methods, including system checks.
    Please advise. Any recommendations or alternative approaches are appreciated :-)

  • Encryption Fails during System Check

    I am doing an enterprise rollout of Bitlocker and out of the thousands that have been prompted and successfully encrypted, I have two that fail during the system check. (Power Cable and CD/DVD). Bitlocker thinks that there is a disc in the drive, when
    there is nothing in the drive (no mounted ISO either). I have at least 1000 more that have yet to be encrypted, so it is likely that I will bump into this again.  I can't find anything in the Service & App logs that explain what is happening.
    Does anyone have a solution to this???

    Hi Hoosierdaddy42,
    In the article "BitLocker Drive Encryption in Windows 7: Frequently Asked Questions" under the heading 'What causes BitLocker to start into recovery mode when attempting to start
    the operating system drive?' one of the items listed is:
    Having the CD or DVD drive before the hard drive in the BIOS boot order and then inserting or removing a CD or DVD.
    There are other things on that list that may be related.
    Hope this helps,
    David

  • Setup system check says internet explorer is open when it's not

    When I get to the setup screen (for the trial version of Illustrator), the first thing is system check. It says my internet explorer is open, and it's not. I've closed all programs that use internet including all of my antivirus and spyware, my vista sidebar, etc. I've opened task manager, gone into processes and tried to end the internet processes but they show up a second later. They just won't close! I've messed with my automatic startup programs, and that didn't work either. I've taken my ethernet cable out and tried that. Nothing works. Anybody know what's going on?

    Does the performance tab of Task Manager show abnormally high CPU usage even when you have nothing running?
    You might have some piece of malware doing nasty stuff. What's showing up as iexplore.exe in Task Manager is probably not Internet Explorer at all.
    Update all your antivirus and spyware definitions and run thorough scans.
    Do a Google search with keyphrase 'internet explorer constantly running,' and you'll turn up some discussions with links to malware removal tools.

  • [SOLVED] Systemd stuck at "Starting File system check"

    Hi all
    Backstory
    My hardware:
    Mobo: Gigabyte X99 2011v3 with UEFI and dual bios.
    GFX: MSI GTX 970 4GB Gaming OC
    HDD: Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SSD
    CPU: intel 5820k
    I have been using arch for about 2 years now. I recently bought new hardware, Gigabyte X99 motherboard uefi dual bios. I have tried a couple of times to install arch the old way, i.e. legacy mode or normal bios mode, however after a successful install, when I reboot my bios says "Select Proper Boot Device". Then I decided to put everything in UEFI mode and install arch using the uefi install disc. At first, I was not very successful, because I followed the arch wiki to the bone but when it comes to UEFI, instructions are a bit vague. In any case, I managed to install Arch and get uefi to work 100% by using this guide http://jorisvandijk.com/2014/installing … pt-system/ .
    Problem
    After installing arch successfully using UEFI mode, arch starts booting up, everything shows [OK] at the side, no errors, however, it hangs after a line that reads "Starting File system check ". I am not at home right now, however I thought I could start troubleshooting and maybe get some ideas.
    I have tried the following.
    - Chrooted back into my arch install using the live cd and mounting my partitions.
    - Updated and synced pacman.
    - Removed all journal log files.
    - reinstalled Systemd.
    - rebuilt kernel modules.
    none of the above worked. It still hangs at "Starting fiel system check"
    Any ideas.
    SOLUTION
    Solved by using
    nolapic
    Still had other problems after that, however, the initial problem was solved.

    Hi Jason,
    thx for your help so far. I have printed out the Arch beginners install and followed it to the bone and focusing on the UEFI parts. Arch installed without a single error, everything went smooth. Aftwerwards, I exited from the chroot environmount, unmount and reboot and again, it hangs on the startup. This time I took screenshots.
    I present to the board, exhibit A, arch starting up after a fresh install :

    I now present to the board, exhibit B, arch starting up for a second time, after restarting the pc :
    http://oi59.tinypic.com/10ehvki.jpg
    Afterwards, I restarted again. Went into bios setup and checked my boot priorities. This is what I saw:
    I now present exhibit C, my bios boot options :
    http://oi62.tinypic.com/24ys0bd.jpg
    I tried all the options listed for my Samsung SSD, with and without UEFI as well as the option that was the default aka Linux boot manage". Each one did exactly the same.
    I have a few ideas :
    1.) Leave out swap.
    2.) Disable fscheck.
    3.) I have a feeling that my SSD is reading/writing too fast and that fscheck is having trouble ?
    I am now trying option 1. In other words, I am reinstalling arch, again, following the beginners guide to the bone and focusing specifically on the UEFI parts. This time, I am leaving out swap. (I have 16GB of DDR4 memory). I have about a 70% feeling that the outcome will be the same. However, I will be back after that to comment on the outcome. Please leave feedback and help me through this where you can ! Thanks
