Trouble with S3 Suspend Mode

Decided to try using S3 suspend mode. Left everything else at default except I enabled USB(my mouse) as a wake-up device. I left "wake-up VGA card" to disabled thinking newer cards should do this automatically(not sure).
Computer fell into Suspend no problem with all fans and drives off. Shouldn't the power LED blink? Mine doesn't.
When I used my USB mouse to wake-up, the computer started a loop of 1-2 seconds of spinning/powering up followed by 3 seconds of deathly quiet   . This continued while I tried mouse and keyboard input, holding in power button, pressing reset--No Effect. Cursed a little too but that didn't help either   .
Finally, realizing that this continuous power up/power down loop wasn't doing my new equipment any good, I switched off the power supply. Waited a minute. turned power back on. LOOP STARTED AGAIN!  
Finally pulled plug and cleared CMOS. Plugged back in and poked the power button....NOTHING!   ..... oh yeah, the PSU switch! I've done that about 10 times now!
Anyway it works again but was wondering if anyone else had similar trouble and got the S3 suspend working. I thought I might try enabling the "wake-up VGA" signal but I need a little more time to recover from the last "heart attack".
Comments anyone?

STR-3?? I assume you're talking about normal OS/computer shutdown and boot-up? If so, yeah I know; I just like to tinker with all the different features and see how they work...or don't in my case.

  • Trouble with normal screen mode

    My I phone has unexpectedly entered a mode that would appear to be useful for those with either blindness or severe sight problems. The screen does not work as normal on the slide to unlock. I have to double tap to get anywhere. I managed to get to settings but the scroll up and down does not work and I can't de-activate this mode. I don't know how the phone entered this mode. Can anyone help?

  • Hr2000 firmware upgrade troubles with external triggering mode

    Hello,
    Has anyone had any problems with the latest Ocean Optics HR2000+ firmware upgrade while using external triggering mode?
    I'm using the NI-provided drivers for HR2000+ which used to work without a problem before the driver update. My program synchronizes 3 spectrometers so that they continuously acquire spectra at 1 second integration time while being triggered by a pulse generator running at 20 Hz. It used to be that the specs would trigger again only once the previous integration completed, but now the spectrometers try to trigger with each trigger and don't complete the 1 second integration. My code has not changed at all between firmware upgrades, and I expected it to work exactly the same after the upgrade. I've reinstalled all programs, inf, and sys files related to the driver as well.
    Do I have to wait for a new NI-Driver update that adjust to the new firmware update? Attached is the driver package I'm using.
    Any clues as to what I can do about this?
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • I am still having trouble with Guided Edit mode in Photoshop. It doesn't work and I have been

    What do you mean by:

    Those are two entirely different versions of the mac operating system. Snow Leopard is 10.6, and Mavericks is 10.9.
    If you are really running 10.6, the specs for PSE require at least 10.7. If that's not the problem, more information, please, about just what you have and just what is going on.

  • Trouble with rotation Portrait-mode vs. Landscape-mode

    Hi there, Maybe someone can give me advice on this, cause it's driving me a little nuts. When I take a picture with my iPhone 4S in portraitmode, when I store it on my computer, it's stored there in landscapemode. That is, the thumbnail shows the picture rotated counterclockwise in landscapemode, and so does every program (pictureviewer, photo gallery, internet explorer etc.) I use to open it. My Popcorn Hour C-200 -a mediaplayer- however is "smart enough" to show the picture in portraitmode. But here's the annoying part: when I correct this on my computer, turn the picture clockwise so it's in portraitmode, it shows correct on my computer, but now the image on my PCH C-200 is turned clockwise to landscapemode! How can I fix this? There is one picturefile from my iPhone that is correct in portraitmode, both on my computer and on my PCH C-200, but I don't know what I did differently with that one. But I now know it can be done...

  • Office 2013 - Word cannot establish a connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode

    Hiya!
    This issue has been answered numerous times for Office 2010 and Office 2007, but I have yet to any solutions or Hotfixes that work for Office 2013 (x64) on Win7.
    How to replicate the issue:
    Open a file from a network share.
    Edit file.
    Leave computer on with file open. Computer goes to sleep or into stand-by mode.
    Wait a bit
    Wake up computer
    CPU opens file in Read-Only mode and gives you the following error "Word cannot establish a network connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode. Save the document into a different file to keep any changes."
    What I've tried:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2434898 - Office 2007 registry fixes. Does not apply.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2413659 - Office 2010 problem. This exact issue. Says 'No microsoft products that match this hotfix are installed'
    Work Around:
    I can saving new versions of these files overrides this issue, but this is sometimes not possible for end-users who only have specific access to ONE SPECIFIC FILE in a particular network share.
    Please let me know how I can alleviate this issue!
    Thanks

  • RAM ISSUES A215-S7407 - PSAFGU-01V002 SUSPEND MODE ERROR WITH 4GB RAM

    Hi, im having some troubles with my laptop.
    Because it comes only winth 1GB RAM (512MB x 2) i decided to give it an upgrade to 4GB (Max Capcity) according to specifications details on the support site. So i bought two (2) DIMM Modules KINGSTON 2GB 667MHZ, exact model # KVR667D2S5/2G Everything was working fine until i close the lid and it suspend.
    Normally, when i open the lid, it will wake up, and everything will work fine, BUT NOW when it wakes up i have distorted sound and horizontal lines on screen, and sometimes i get a BSOD (BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH) and it restart itself.
    TEST THAT I MADE:
    ONLY 1 DIMM of 2GB  - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP NORMALLY (I tested both Dimms 2GB separately)
    1 DIMM 2GB / 1 DIMM 1GB (TOTAL 3GB) - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP NORMALLY
    2 DIMMs 2GB  (TOTAL 4GB) - IT SUSPEND AND WAKES UP WITH DISTORTED SOUND AND HORIZONTAL LINES ON DISPLAY.
    It seems like the problem appears only with Max. Capacity (4GB) RAM and only when it suspend CLOSE THE LID (POWER LED CHANGE COLOR BLUE TO ORANGE AND FADES AND COMES).
    With Hibernation, it works fine, the problem is when it suspend.
    It looks that the problem is on the motherboard, maybe a NEW BIOS RELEASE that fix the situation.
    I appreciate if somebody can speak to TOSHIBA SUPPORT DEVELOPER and ask them for an BIOS Update.
    i know that im not the only one with this problem, there is another person that wrote a post "RAM ISSUES" and refers to the same situation, but as i guess, it wasn't solved at all.

    Make sure you install the memory when the light is not flashing, i.e. completly off not sleeping.
    What if you try adjusting - MSCONFIG/Advanced Options/Maximum Memory

    Maybe this will help:
    Troubleshooting
    As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

  • X-Fi Xtereme Music mode switching and troubles with channels redirection

    Good Day.
    I have bought a X-Fi sound card and now I have troubles with my speaker system. I have analog stereo system and headphones, I connect them using my amplifier. All cables are connected properly.
    When I use entertainment mode there are no problems with speaker system if 2.0/2.1 is set. But if I set headphones channels become redirected: left becomes right and right becomes left.
    When i use game mode channels are redirected both in 2.0/2.1 and headphones modes.
    If I connect my headphones to sound card directly there are no problems excepting entertainment mode 2.0/2.1 when channels are redirected.
    Please halp me to resolve the problem.
    Thank you.

  • Trouble with bridge mode and port forwarding

    I have a Westell Model 6100F DSL modem in bridge mode into my network and I'm having trouble forwarding ports. Is there any general guidance available to do this. I have set many of my friends networks up to allow port forwarding but all have been on other service providers, mainly cable. (my experience) My network is the only one I have had trouble with.
    Basically, my question is, while in bridge mode, does the modem forward all incoming traffic to my NAT router or do I need to apply special port forwarding settings in the modem to allow this?
    If bridge mode is the reason I cannot forward the ports, can someone explain how to set the WEstell 6100F back to factory defaults so I can start over. 
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Paul

    If bridge mode is set up correctly, your router should be holding the Public IP address (basically not something that is a 192.168 address) as shown at http://www.whatismyip.com/ and compared against what IP your router has.
    If your router has the public IP, all problems lie with either your router or your PC's firewall and configuration. I'd check out portforward.com for some guides on forwarding ports for your router or poarticular application if you need some additional help.

  • Trouble with DNS set up

    Hello !
    I've got a real trouble with my dns configuration... and i can't understand! so, i need some help....
    well, qutie newbie in mac os server, i run in on a G4, and i had not noticed any trouble until i've decided to run open directory as a master with LDAP, wanting to have a kerberos protection for the users.
    Kerberos doesn't want to play with me !
    I've been in console mode to have a look, and, actually i've seen this :
    "Oct 17 11:31:08 wakan servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no name available via DNS for 192.168.0.109
    Oct 17 11:31:08 wakan servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no reverse DNS entry for server, various services may not function properly"
    Ok... my DNS has a trouble... but i don't know how to fix it ! Is there anybody in this world who can help me?
    I don't want to have a real DNS for my little server... but i understand that my config is not good. I can understand that having a caching DNS can improve the quality of my config, and, in other hand that it is necessary for having the services of OSX server in an effeciant way, but i don't know the way and the parameters i've to put in my config to fix it.
    Now, just some words on my config...
    First, i've got an adress provided by my FAI (the frenchy workd for ISP, i think) is "193.252.209.135". This adress is set on a d-link modem router via PPOE. The DNS of my provider (wanadoo.fr) are 80.10.246.1 and 80.10.246.132.
    After this there is my G4 With mac osX server.
    • en0, the "extenal gate" and the internal ethernet on the computer is plug on the modem with the adress "192.168.0.109". the router is set on "192.168.0.1". the dns are 80.10.246.1 and 80.10.246.132.
    • en1, the "internal gate" for the network, an PCI card in the computer, has the parameters : adress "192.168.3.1", subnet "255.255.255.0", router "192.168.3.1". no dns records. (no VPN service for the moment). After this, i've a switch for the macs behind the server. (without any link agregation)
    All those parameters have been set by the gateaway assistant.
    And now the parameters inside the admin server :
    DHCP : en1 - adress from 192.168.3.2 to 192.168.3.254, name 192.168.3. no static card. Router 192.168.3.1. No name for domaine by defaut, name servers 80.10.246.1 and 80.10.246.132 No LDAP, no WINS.
    DNS : No zone transfert, recursivity is ON. No zone records.
    NAT : set on full, Transfert and Network Address Translation.
    When i've been on the terminal, i had those information:
    "wakan:~ st$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
    Password:
    Primary address = 192.168.0.109
    Current HostName = wakan.local
    The DNS hostname is not available, please repair DNS and re-run this tool."
    All my "main" services are working fine (AFP, Firewall, DHCP, DNS, Update) Open Directory is running without Kerberos. By the way, all the macs after the G4server can have a corect access to internet, and share information via LDAP of Open Directory, but i've to say that, a couple of days later, a friend of mine, who has a PC computer, can't have a DHCP dynamic address when he plug on my little network. I think that it is an other trouble, and i've decided to have e look to this later... but if someone knows how to resolve it...
    So here begins the nightmare for me... so if anybody can help me... i realy need some help to fix this mystery!!!
    Special thanks!

    As the router modem is already doing NAT why use NAT in the server?
    If you want to use OpenDirectory and other services you should/need to set up the DNS correctly using the server's private IP (and others in the same range the server is setup with). The domainname used internally can be different than your public one.
    And then use the server as the only DNS for you LAN clients and the server itself. Forwarders (your ISP DNSes) in /etc/named.conf usually speeds up lookups of external addresses (also turning off IPv6 can help that too).
