System crashes when installing games via DVD Writer

When installing multi-disk games / programs pc freezes after putting in second disk - I have tried various other optical drives (IBM 8x CDROM - Pioneer 107 and of course NEC3500) but I have no joy - system just hangs and requires a power off/on to restart.
Tried SATA hard drive but still same problem - tried different cpu 2.8 Northwood - but still no joy.
It does not crash all the time and the games that are on it work fine for any length of time - I have PC alert installed and CPU and system temperature dont go above 51 C
I have installed the games on another pc and they work fine so its not the disks.
please help

Hmm, I hope you fixed your problem regarding installation..and maybe the freezing now is a totally seperate problem? Honestly, at this point...I would reformat everything, even update the BIOS if you haven't done so already. This time though, I wouldn't install anything except the bare essentials (WinXP w/o SP2...vid and sound drivers....no MSI extras) Then install a game or two and test out your crashing then.
I know it's a pain to reformat...but when things get rough, you reformat!
Good luck!

Installed E3000 now system crashes when online

Soon after installing the E3000 I began to experience frequent system crashes when online. Installation seemed to progress without any issues. PC, Windows XP Pro SP3, is wired though router, also able to access net with netbook, Windows 7 Starter, without issues. After several crashed I pulled up the event log and here is what I found. Tried to use Linksys online chat for assistance but they said the problem was with my computer and that I needed to contact my vendor. Since I built this pc I'm on my own and would appreciate any guidance on how to serolve this.
Thank you for your time.

Access denied error when I try to install game via Wine

I try to install game via Wine on FAT32 partition and I always receive error "access denied" when install program starts copying files. How to fix it?

This is just one partition that has enough free space. Why should I install it to other partition?

Crash when installed on system that formerly had Pinnacle hardware

Encore 2.0 (but not 1.5) consistantly crashes when installed on a
system which has the RALcodec codec installed (My system is a dual 2.8 Ghz Xeon Dell under Windows XP SP2). This codec is installed by a variety of Pinnacle hardware installations such as the DC-1000 and DC-2000. It remains active on the system even after removal of these devices. The symptom is an Application Error after about 20 minutes and the usual offer to send info to Microsoft, even if Encore is simply opened and a empty project created.
The solution is to rename the Ralcodec and associated files:
Cachex.dll
FXlib.dll
MedMan.dll
MLPagAX.dll
RALCodec.dll
RALCtrl.cpl
RALMain.dll
from the C:\Windows\system32 directory, reboot and then delete them.
Of course your DC-2000 won't work anymore but that is probably not
an issue.
Some other details in case anyone cares: The Pinnacle software
is loaded by Encore because Encore enumerates all installed
codecs. When loaded, the Pinnacle software
creates a hidden window called AudioInputWnd and then listens
for various Windows messages on this window. This processing
goes on in the background while Encore is running and eventually
results in the app crash. Note that 3 years ago, when using
Premiere 6.5 with the Pinnacle DC-2000 I used to get occasional
crashes when exiting Premiere. The error message displayed at
that time referenced AudioInputWnd as well. So it appears
that even back then, with Premiere 6.5, there was a problem with the Pinnacle software.
The crash of Encore 2.0 doesn't produce a message explicitly
referencing AutioInputWnd but under Windbg you can
see that the software is dispatching a message received from that
window's queue. When RALcodec is removed, the AudioInputWnd
is not even created anymore when Encore is run.
I would note that Adobe support was unable to solve this problem and
suggested the usual unhelpful littany of reinstallation of Encore and
to update the video drivers when I first called it in 3 months ago. Another person, Dave Shriver also reported essentially identical problems in the Encore forum back in Februrary. The root cause appears to have actually existed in the Adobe certified bundle of Premiere 6.0/6.5 with the DC-2000 before resurfacing in the present form with Encore 2.0.

The simplest way to reinstall iPhoto and iMovie is to download Pacifist and then extract the relevant applications from the Software Restore Discs.
Pacifist comes with instructions; this is not a difficult operation and there is no need for erase & install to recover the applications.
Pacifist is Shareware, but you need not pay the fee in order to use it. Every time that you open Pacifist you will be prompted to purchase a licence. If you feel that Pacifist is worth the money (and I think that it is), you can purchase a licence at any stage.
If you're a plonker like me, then purchasing a licence will provide justification for third party developers like CharlesSoft to save the day for the rest of us.
Good luck!

System crashes when put to sleep or restart

My system crashes when put to sleep or when I click re-start. This also happens when applications start and need to take over the entire screen. Once it crashes, I cannot start the computer for approx 5 minutes. I cannot re-start in safe mode because it also crashes. I cannot start with the application disc because the dvd drive pops open when I start the system. I have tried shutting the system down from the menu bar and the screen exits to the desktop window, but doesn't shut off. I have used disc utility to repair permissions and have re-set the pram, but the problem remains. I have a G4 gigabit/ethernet, running OSX 10.4.11, with an Apple Studio Display and ATI Radeon 9000 Pro graphics card. This has been going on for a while - I am not sure if it started when I installed OSX tiger or when I added two new ram memory chips (I have four added, 2 512 SDRAMM and 2 128 SDRAMM). Please advise. Thank you.

I am not sure if it started when I installed OSX tiger or when I added two new ram memory chips (I have four added, 2 512 SDRAMM and 2 128 SDRAMM).
The absolute first step in troubleshooting is to remove the recently added RAM.
That will remove question regarding the RAM.
Have you tried a Safe Mode boot (hold Shift while booting)?
This will allow for automatic system repairs. While in safe mode, does the sleep function work?
From Safe mode, does the restart function work?
If after removing the RAM, and after Safe mode, the problem persists, a PMU reset may be worth trying.
The PMU controls all power functions, sleep and shut down and start. Corruption in the PMU will cause problems with these functions, and a reset will clear this up if the PMU is the root cause.

System crash when play music

975x +ICH7DH Platinum power up edition
OCZ 1gb DDR2 Ram
ATI Redeon x800xl video card
SEagate HDD
SATA mode IDE
after installation Windows XP Pro, seem ok but system crash when play music.
Can anybody help?

Are you using the onboard audio, or you have an additional sound card installed on your system. If you are using the onboard audio, check if you have a proper installation of the Realtek HD audio drivers, and if you are using another sound card, you have to disable the onboard audio controller in BIOS.

(bootcamp) graphics card crash when playing games

Firstly apologies if I've put this in the wrong section of the forum... this is the most applicable I could find.
Having tried to enquire at the good folks of AMD, they told me I needed to see apple. Finding a support email is nigh on impossile - so either that or advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated!
I have a boot camp partition on a mid 2011 macbook pro - my graphics card is Radeon HD 6750M.
I have recently been experiencing graphics card crashes when playing games.
There is no boot camp update available, so I am forced to update the driver manually. Trying to use the automated detection/installation tool on the ATI site resulted in the error "your computer doesn't have a proper graphics adapter"
When I located and downloaded the mac bootcamp drivers from the ATI site site, and I tried to install these it was unable to detect my existing microsoft C++ distributable or install its own - so the installation failed.
All advice welcome!

yeah - it *might* have fixed my issue - or at least it hasn't crashed yet... jynxed it now ofcourse ;p I have acouple of questions though...
Why did this just start happening - I've played other games and this game before without these crashing issues?
I'm worried about configuring this fan thing correctly - lots of 'if your hardware gets damages it's not my problem' warnings on the software site. I know there's only 4 options - how do I ensure I select the right one? ie I thought I had a unibody macbook pro but it can't find the second GPU?

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box (similar to those given above) are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

I create a project w/iMovie and I have two problems: When I try to finalize the project iMovie crashes; when I share to DVD sometimes it crashes also; if I can successfully send it to DVD and then burn a DVD there are wavy lines on the screen. Help!

I create a project w/iMovie and I have two problems: When I try to finalize the project iMovie crashes; when I share to DVD sometimes it crashes also; if I can successfully send it to DVD and then burn a DVD there are wavy lines on the screen. I'm uising photos in my project, not video. Help!

You can split a project in two by doing this.
1) Go to the Project Library View.
2) Select your project, and click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Give it a name like "your project name - part 1".
3) Do this again. This time name it "your project name - part 2"
4) Open Part 1 for editing. Delete everything in the second half.
5) Open Part 1 for editing. Delete everything in the first half of the project.
At the end you should have your original project, plus the same project in two parts.

Crash when installing Oracle9i on Windows

If you have a crash when installing oracle9i on Win 2000
(for example The instruction at "0x77fca30c" referenced memory blah blah blah), the problem could be your classpath.
Try the following in a command window:
cd Disk1 (or wherever you have unzipped oracle)
set CLASSPATH=
setup
I guess it is a bug in the installer. I didn't try to isolate it, my classpath is too big!

I just checked this again, at work, on my 2000 machine. I changed my locale to saudia arabia and that resulted in the alignment you mentioned earlier. I switched it back to its default english - united states and the alignment is no loner at the right.
In addition to that my nls_lang setting is :
AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
Note though, that simply changing the locale did it for me, regardless of my nls_lang setting.

Satellite L500-19x crashes when loading software from dvd

Satellite L500-19x crashes when loading software from dvd. This is photoshop elements 9. Other software generally loads ok, but not always.

System crashes when attempting to install 10.6. Keeps asking to restart. Computer is a Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor and 2 GB Memory.

I have tried to install 10.6 and when install is complete it says restart. The computer restarts but keeps coming to a gray screen with a small black box that says to restart. The processor is 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon with 2 GB of memory. This should be more than adequate. Any ideas? Has anyone encountered this before? I had to restore 10.5 from Time Machine.

Your sig line says iMac, but TMK no iMacs were ever made with 2x2.66 GHz processors. Is this a Mac Pro you are installing on? Are you using a retail Snow Leopaard DVD?

System crashes when i use any input field after installing Maverick

Hello all.
I have a 2010 macbook air, and have just installed Maverick OS.
Now every time i go to any input field to type in a web address or apple id, the system crashes
and re-boots. Tried to alter keyboard properties nothing works.
I presume i will have to do a factory re-set, because i can not load any updates because I am asked
for apple ID, which i cant enter because computer crashes... Oh right i mentioned that already ;)
Help advice welcome!
Rgds from frustrated in Sweden!!!!

There was an issue similar to this that was resolved with DAQmx 9.3 update. If you haven't done so already, update the driver to 9.3 and try again. If not, try opening an example (like, say, Hardware I/O->DAQmx->Analog Meas->Voltage->Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk-Analog Start.vi), and try running that standard example. If the example works and you still have difficulty with your application, could you post information about your project and what navigational steps you take to make the error occur? Try also opening the VI inside and outside of a project (this would diagnose a symptom of the issue resolved by DAQmx 9.3).

Unavoidable system freezes when playing games

Hi all,
I recently switched from Windows to Arch Linux for good and it's been an enjoyable experience so far. My only problem is system freezes that sometimes occur when putting load on the system.
Mostly I'm having the problem that games I'm playing will inevitably freeze at some point, might be 5 minutes after launching them, might be 2h. It isn't exclusive to games though, once or twice Chrome crashed when having a couple of tabs open and opening another YouTube tab or something like that.
Here's how it happens:
- My frame rate (in games) drops over a couple of seconds until I only see a slide show, then it's only a matter of seconds until the system (X?) freezes completely.
- simultaneously the sound begins to stutter and stops as well
- if I see it coming and manage to Alt+F4 out of the game it goes back to running normally, otherwise it freezes completely and my only option is to reboot or Alt+SysRq+R, Alt+SysRq+E which brings me back to my login manager.
About my system:
- latest Arch, upgraded a couple of times which didn't change anything
- Intel i5 CPU, Nvidia GPU with proprietary drivers
- Openbox as WM, no DE, but I had the same problem with GNOME and KDE before as well
Games I played on this system (and all crashed):
- CS:GO, Prison Architect, WoW on Wine
If someone could give me any hints how I could go about diagnosing/removing this problem I would be very grateful!
P.S. I didn't have any problems like this at all on Windows (7)

Premiere Elements 11 crashes when importing from a DVD

Hi, I'm having trouble with my Adobe Premiere Elements 11.
I am trying to get footage off a set of DVDs I shot a while back (shot on a DVD cam, I forget what the model is cuz it wasnt mine) Anyway, Everything went fine for the 1st 3 DVDs, but when I got to the 4th, when I went to "get media" it does nothing for awhile, then if you try to click it freezes and the dialog box pops up saying the program is not responding and closes.
Also, after that happened, it does the same thing with the other DVDs when I go back to try them. I can play it via my DVD player software, but Adobe crashes when I try to get the media.
Also, after this error in adobe, my DVD drive locks and I can't eject via the manural button, and when i right click on the drive in My Computer hit eject, it says "error ejecting DVD-RW Drive"
I have to eaither log off/restart or go into the properties and disable the drive and reenable to be able to eject the DVD.
I really don't understand whats going on, and why its doing this. Nothing changed on my computer inbetween ripping the DVD media, as I was doing them all back to back. I would import from DVD, then export as WMV so I could send the footage to someone (the .VOB files wouldn't work for this and my file converters where not working right)
I have done an uninstall and reinstall (with a registry clean in between) and even a system restore to a previous point to resolve another issue I was having. (Could not make new folders)
But Adobe/DVD drive is still having this issue.
I'm running on an HP Pavilion dm4-1165dx Laptop with Win 7 64bit btw. I can get exact specs later if its nessesary. But it was working just fine until I got to the last DVD so IDK why it would just quit on me like this.

John T.,
You are correct. I probably was not clear in my question.
If the miniDVD's were produced correctly, and all discs were finalized, first doing a Copy of those miniDVD discs to the HDD, would be my first step.
While one can Import directly from DVD's, there are a couple of possible issues:
The process will be much slower, than Importing from Copies on the HDD, especially an internal HDD.
One will not have to have the particular miniDVD's inserted into the multi-drive (not possible with most computers and only one multi-drive.
Good luck to the OP,
Hunt
