T400 freezes some seconds after DVD-ROM is deactivated

Hi,
I have a T400 with "Deactivate DVD-Drive" activated.
5-10 seconds after the baloon-message saying that my drive has now been deactivated appeared, my system freezes for some seconds.
Is there anything I can do about this? Is it a known problem?
Thanks,
Patrick

[Solved] Screen freezes few seconds after logging in.

Hey there.
I'm looking for some guidance if possible.
I installed Arch in an external hard drive to test out the compatibility with my laptop (a LG P1-J331P > http://pastie.org/8548089 ) with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 video card. All following the beginner's guide [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide] and relevant wiki for the external/usb device installation [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Usb_installation].
Running arch with "nomodeset" on kernel parameter, it runs normally, except that the screen resolution was fixed at [email protected], though it should be maxed at 1280x800@60.
When "nomodeset" is set:
$dmesg | grep radeon
[ 10.859500] [drm] VGACON disable radeon kernel modesetting.
[ 10.859507] [drm:radeon_init] *ERROR* No UMS support in radeon module!
Without using "nomodeset", the system detects correctly the screen resolution but it freezes few seconds later after logging. Can't Ctrl+Alt+F1.
Tried:
- added "radeon" to MODULES array in the mkinitcpio file. And run the subsequent "mkinitcpio -p linux";
- created a "/etc/rc.d/rc.local" file with contents:
modprobe -r radeon
modprobe -r drm
modprobe radeon modeset=1
- tested "radeon.pcie_gen2=0", "pci=nomsi", "noapic" and "acpi=off" to the kernel parameter.
- created a "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf" file with contents: http://pastie.org/private/bhcbfvs3zvplvspwamxa2q
Video card drivers installed: mesa, xf86-video-vesa and xf86-video-ati.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 freezes 5 seconds after launch

We have installed Acrobat pro on a windows xp machine. Acrobat seems to freeze about 5 seconds after we launch it. Someone told up to delete the autoupdater plugin folders on the PC but this didn't seem to make any difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good Morning,
I talked with customer care this morning and they tell me that this is not an deactivation/activation issue since my application isn’t launching correctly. They gave me a meaningless document to troubleshoot launching issues with the suite. It seems that all other applications in the suite launch fine like photoshop, illustrator, etc. It is only acrobat that hangs on launch. However, I did notice that when I try to close out of the other applications like illustrator, the application will hang and I will actually get an application hang message in the event viewer.

Windows Freezes 5 seconds after startup about 70% of the time

To start, I formatted my machine, installed Leopard, ran Boot Camp to set up a Windows partition, used a SP2 Windows XP CD, and started the Boot Camp process fine. Everything was good the first couple of days. Then however I very frequently found that when I start up windows, occassionally the mouse and keyboard would cease to be responsive and I'd be forced to hold the power button to reboot. I've noticed this happens at exactly the same time the brightness goes down 1 level so my best guess is whatever Boot Camp process is being started up is what's causing this.
Typically what happens is I'm in OSX, I click the Reboot option, hold down the Option key when I see the gray screen, then select Windows. Once I get a mouse cursor, I start moving it in circles and wait about 5 seconds after the desktop has loaded. If the mouse freezes, I reboot and try again. If it doesn't, I figure I'm good to go and continue using my machine.
Sometimes also around the same time instead of freezing it just immediately reboots the machine.
This problem is occuring way more than half of the time. Luckily it's only at startup and if I just keep trying until it works, then I can continue to use Windows without any problems.
I own a full version of Parallels and this problem has never occured when I start up my Boot Camp partition with that. I feel like that gives a reasonable amount of confidence to the difference in the Boot Camp service/drivers.
What can I do?

* Here is how I partially solve this annoying problem:
In activity monitor, one can clearly saw that Paralells 3 is jumping from one core to another (why is so, I do not know - perhaps they wanted to make similar thermal load on both cores).
Confirmation in syslog: an 19 07:06:29 aeroflot kernel[0]: [Parallels] IPI stat: rescheduled 1 cpus out of 2.
Removing vmmain.kext from kernel does not solving anything because Paralells requires this kext to be loaded in order to work!
1. Disable one core if you have dual CPU. This will resolve "core jumping" problem. The system will work with reduced performance, but since Paralells is still unable to use multiple cores, it might be less painful.
2. Try to avoid automatic loading of vmmain.kext during system startup when you boot both cores, or better, you can load vmmain manually when you want to work with Parallels 3.

Hi... i have this problem just in one of my PCs with a windows 7 64-bit. When i am in the lordswm.com and i press anything which loads a new web page my browser stops working for some seconds(even the line turning at the tab page showing the page loading stops). i seem to have the problem in internet explorer too.
It really bugs me since sometimes i need to work really fast in here and it holds me waiting.

Have you asked your question to the game author or the game community? I don't paly the game but I see there is a forum there. Once the game community think it's Flash Player problem, can you come back here and let us know what problem is?

You can try to right-click on the game > '''Settings''', click the lower left icon and deselect '''Enable hardware acceleration''' and check. The [http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer Adobe Flash forum] would also be helpful.

Notebook freezes few seconds after start. Overheat? New video cable?

Hello and thanks for your attention.
HP Pavillion DV5-1235e
Windows Vista
4 years old.
I wanted to clean the fan on my laptop since it is 4 years old now. So I had to take apart everything and took it back together. I did remove the old thermal paste and putted some new. Except that I didn't change anything. And I also canged the video cable for a new one.
My first attepmt to start didn't end well. I pressed the power button my notebook started but the sreen didn't start and from there on he didn't even boot. (the HDD led didn't blink ) So i found a solution for that. pulled out the power suply, pressed the power button for 30-60 sec. Puted the power back and viola! It worked. But I didn't even open a web browser and the laptop freezed. So i pressed the power button for 3 sec and the laptop turned off. Turned it back on I had the same problem as in the first attemp. So had to pull out power suply, press power button , put power suply back on and it worked again but i didn't have time to open speedfan to see the temp so I don't know what happend actualy. The fan is rotating. the thermo paste is new. everything should work fine.
edit: I managed to start speedfan. The temperatures were low. The lowest I have ever seen them. But he still freezed
edit2: In safe mode. it works longer but freezes(does freeze and the monitor turns off)
Thank you who made it to this point.
Looking forward the anwsers.

Hello AmlnnN,
I understand have you finished doing a little maintenance   work on the computer it now freezes periodically is that correct? I will do all I can to help you resolve this issue.
First thing lets run a couple test on some of your hardware.
See steps below:
1.       I want you to boot into the bios menu this link will show you how.
2.       Once in bios go over to the diagnostic option at the top.(Note you will need to use the arrow keys to navigate)
3.       You may see 2 test there if that is the case run both test.
4.       It may take some time so please have the ac adapter plugged in.
5.       Once the test finished press F9 to setup defaults and then press F10 to save and exit.
Also find out while you’re in the bios if the computer ever freezes there.
Pleas respond back with your results at your earliest convenience.
Thank You

My macbook pro 2011 model keeps freezing 30 seconds after start up

what happend is i tried to install Dreamweaver this installed succesfully and then when i started up the program it began to freeze so i force quit everthing and then it began to freeze so i hold the power button and it turn off and i restarted it then it said that "your computer turned of last time because of a problem do you want to open the programs that were open" click open. then i clicked cancel and it started i click google chrome and it froze completely i waited 2 hours and it was still frozen so i restarted and

Try booting into Safe mode (holding down the option key whilst booting). Your machine may run more slowly than usual, but at least it will let us know if you've a faulty kernel extension causing the problem.

P.S. Which version of Dreamweaver? The CS6 or CC version?

Droid X - - - Freezes ten seconds after turning it on

I turned my phone off to charge it, and a few hours later when I turned it back on, it just froze. It wouldn't let me do anything. I have tried to reset it completely thinking that it was something that I downloaded, and it won't even let me do that. I do not know what to do or how to fix this problem. Any suggestions??

@upstateny315_37040
Let's thaw out your Droid X! Have you tried removing and reinserting the battery http://bit.ly/W6tPiQ? Also, when trying to reset the device, if you're unable to complete the reset following the preferred steps, try resetting following these steps http://bit.ly/UsGS8F. Let me know how this works out for you. Thanks!

Block removed only pressing the red button some seconds

I'm facing a problem from 2 days. My 8500 curve freezes, and after I need push the red button for some seconds, after I can use it almost normally.
Almost, because it seems the "o" key in the keyboard is pressed also when I don't press it. After some seconds, the things turn normally.
I suspect a software problem,
Thank you

HPG6000 DVD Rom

Hi Guys,
Got the above notebook and for some reason the dvd rom has stopped working, its not showing in my computer or device manager , but it does show in bios.Now I backed up all my data and did a system recovery last night ( the drive needed cleaning anyway )..........after the recovery finished still cant see the drive. The drive opens and shuts when booted....any ideas ?......
Many Thanks

I would suggest that you upgrade to OS 9.1 (free download HERE ) and then OS 9.2.1 (free download HERE and further to OS 9.2.2 (free download HERE ). With OS 9.2 you will get Apple CD/DVD Driver 1.4.7 and other DVD stuff. With your OS 9.0.4 (or OS 9.1) you don't have those things. Then check with Apple System Profiler what you have!

DVD+R not reading back on some DVD-ROM drives

The recording device is the built-in SuperDrive on my iBook G4 1.42. I've been archiving copies of my photos to recordable DVD. It's usually 2 copies of each set - one in DVD+R and one in DVD-R. I store each set in a different place.
My preferred media is (Made in Japan) Taiyo-Yuden media sold under the FujiFilm and Sony label. So far, the spindles I've opened and used are the FujiFilm (8x-listed) DVD+R (regular silver label) and DVD-R (from the "Color Tower" package).
The DVD-R recordings seem to read back fine in most DVD-ROM drives I've tried. I have a circa 2001 PC with a DVD-ROM drive, and it doesn't read back the DVD+R copies. It'll just whirr for about 20 seconds and then just stop without the disc mounting. All DVD recordings seem to read back just fine on my iBook G3 600.
Are there any known problems with readback of DVD+R recorded from OS X on some DVD-ROM drives? I figure I'm eventually going to get an external drive that also records DVD+R (I'm thinking that would present the fewest compatibility problems) or a new machine (it's about time after five years).
14 iBook G4 1.42 1.5GB (10.4.3), 12 iBook G3 600 640MB (10.3.9)

Just a note of interest. If your machine is 2001
vintage, my guess it doesn't like + media at all.
There are some reports that in some cases that these
older drives can read them sporaticlly at best, this
is normally caused by the poor quality of some
manufactures.
It's a Sony VAIO desktop with a Pioneer DVD-ROM drive. I don't know about "quality" per se, but it probably finicky.
I find that using the best quality media eliminates
many problems. And I realise that it is more
expensive to use this media but in the long run it's
worth the extra money.
Have a look at the Media Guide below.
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
Cheers Don
Like I said - Taiyo Yuden all the way unless it's maybe sometime like video storage where it's no big deal. I just got three spindles of MIJ (had to look carefully for that) Sony 16x DVD-R for $12.99 each at CompUSA. They didn't have it on sale, but they price-matched the $12.99 price at Best Buy (my local store only had made in Taiwan stock). I was next to the manager at the customer service area, and she said I could have as many as I wanted at that price. If it were some expensive item, I think I would have been limited to one or two.

T400 dvd rom can not be open...

I purchansed my t400 at the beginning of this month,model:27652KM.
Just typed a report on the notebook. Resized disk C myself.
Rarely use the dvd rom.
The disc loading dock can not be open....all the indicators seem ok.
Could someone give me some suggestion? I am in sydney. How can I contact for lenovo's support team??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

poptang, welcome to the forum,
please try the following: when you have shut down the system, remove and then replace the drive. Instructions can be found here. (I know they're for a T61, but it's the same method for a T400). Then at boot press F1 (for BIOS) or F12 (for Boot Menu), and see if you are able to open the drive.
Please let us know if this helps.

Mouse cursor freezes a few seconds after start-up? Need help!

Laptop: Samsung Series 9
OS: Windows 8.1
Problem: since booting up my computer today, my cursor will freeze about 30 seconds after boot-up. Prior to this, I'll be able to move my cursor for a few seconds as I normally would, but then I will inevitably see the blue loading circle next to the cursor
and then my cursor will be frozen in place. I can still use my keyboard/everything else functions regularly. I decided to boot up my computer in safe mode and my cursor works fine. Clearly then, there must be some software/start-up issue?
I should note that I used my laptop fine yesterday night. When I booted it up today my cursor froze and I saw the restart prompt that said windows will restart on its own in 1 day to update. So I updated/restarted and the problem persists.

Hi,
Mostly, this issue is caused by third party services or programs conflict problem.
Please use Clean Boot to troubleshoot:
