Unable to reach the bios

I've installed 8.1 on my 2 y\o PC.
Motherboard asks to press DEL, but I get a message like this: press any key to log via the DVD
Now, I know that windows 8 starts SO fast but whatever I do, at most it gets me to where I can handle most of things, but still, it's not the bios.
Is there a chance that windows 8.1 prevents me from get into the bios?
if NO, what steps should I take?
Thanks in advance.
details:
del = bios setup\q-flash
Motherboard = gigabyt H61M-S2-B3
bios= award modular BIOS v6.00PG

This step no need any 3rd party Software
1. try to access by pressing F2 before windows boot screen
2. using this command:
shutdown /s /t 0
choose adjust UEFI setting, PC will be restart and go to BIOS
3. or just go to PC setting - general - advance setting - UEFI Firmware Settings
PC will be restart and go to BIOS
screenshoot

Could not provision the RemoteApp collection. Error: Could not join the domain. Unable to reach the domain.

Hi
I am trying to set up an Azure RemoteApp Hybrid solution.
I have created RemoteApp net and uploaded a custom image and all that is fine.
When I link my template to my Collection it fails after provisioning for about an hour.
I recive the following message: Could not provision the RemoteApp collection. Error: Could not join the domain. Unable to reach the domain.
The join domin works fine and I have tryed with account with different lvl of access to my AD.
Any suggestion how to solve this?

Hello Eric,
I am landing into the same Problem and i read your guidance on this issue. Let me answer it point by point.
1. Check the VPN state to ensure it is active or connected state:
Sundesh:My Azure RemoteApp Virtual Network after successfull S2S configuration shows as Ready. Is that what you mean by Connected State? Earlier to S2S, it was just under connecting state.
2. Verify your VNET configurations have proper IP address ranges
Sundesh: The VNET address range, the Local address range and DNS has already been verified twice. In fact the same address ranges(with exception to VNET) are working fine on a VENT config on Azure VM instance. Verified.
3. Verify your DNS IP configurations are valid, (often this is the problem)
Sundesh: Yes its done and verified
4. Verify the credentials entered for domain join are valid.
Sundesh: Tested these credentials by joining a regular Azure VM to domain and it works there.
5. Make sure your VPN endpoint that Azure RemoteApp service is connecting to is not blocking traffic.
Sundesh: Can you please let us know the specific port numbers that we need to consider and i can have it checked with the Network team
Thanks

Stop further attempts and follow the below:
>>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
A.) Download the attached archive (180.rar) and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
F.) Boot to the USB
G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_amt10_mb.zip

I am unable to reach the my content page of mysites from the name link within my site collection

For some reason I am no longer able to get to the personal mysites page from within our site collection. My name appears at the top right and it has an option for setting which leads to some minimal page but I can no longer use this to get to the actual
mysites page. Is there a setting I am missing that allows this to happen?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to reach the content page of mysites from the name link within site collection.
As this issue is always related to the inadequacy configuration about the MySite, you need to make sure that you had configured correctly with your MySite. You can refer to:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624362(v=office.14)
What’s more, you can also check with the following steps.
Make sure the Web site for MySites in IIS is started.
Make sure the App pool is running
Use ULSVIEWER to check your Sharepoint ULS logs for the issue.
There are two similar articles for your reference.

Unable to open the BIOS UPGRADE FILE

I have download the BIOS UPGRADE file from TOSHIBA website. My TOSHIBA notebook satellite is operating on windows vista. After downloading the zipped file of the BIOS UPGRADE i could not open it. SO my question is how to open zipped file ? I am surprised my laptop doesn't comes with the unzip program?

Hi there,
thats unusual because a unzip-program IS integrated in Vista. But if it really does not work then download winrar (www.winrar.com) and unzip it with this program. It must work, otherwise the file is corrupted and needs to be re-downloaded.

Hi,everybody out there......Recently purchased a P7n-Diamond mobo hoping to build a gaming rig.Alas..upon connecting all the necessary peripherals and powering up the system....there is no displat...no beep.Tried a barebone test with intel q6600,corsair 1gb ram and a zotac nvidia 8800gt card...yes the psu is coolermaster 1000watts.Upon powering up it is seen that all the fans are spinning smoothly...little leds are all glowing....no beep is heard....no display is seen.....no P.O.S.T..........cannot enter the BIOS hence.
Any angel out there with helping hands please

Tried outside the cabinet also...cleared the cmos...tried to boot only with cpu cooler.an8800gt card ,1gb ram( Corsair ).Same case...No..post ..
Even tried with the same configuration in my spare P5n-e sli mobo there it posted fine.
Beginning to feel that the mobo is defective.
"tried to boot only with cpu cooler"
You need a CPU as well
Can you try with different PSU too?
Also check mainboard CPU socket for bent-ed pins

Unable to reach the OS on my machine

Ok first off I am not sure if this is the right section to ask this question but oh well. Basically I have an issue that just occurred the other day and I am not sure what is wrong exactly. I have had my mid 2010 macbook pro hard drive partitioned with mac OS mountain lion (latest version) and windows 7 professional 64-bit. Everything has been working well for about 3 months now or so since I partitioned it. But now I have an issue where on start up i used to be able to hit the option key on the keyboard to switch between patricians but now this isn't the case when I hit the option key on start up nothing happens. My computer auto defaults to the windows side but then gives me the error "windows did not shut off properly screen" and when I select start windows normally, it doesn't go any further then that screen and I cannot get into windows side either. I have tried this numerous times and I cannot get into my machine. I was just curious if anyone has experienced this and if any suggestions are available to fix this. Or is it safe to say that this HD is done for?

can you select safe mode rather than start windows normally? " and when I select start windows normally"

Error: Could not join the domain. Unable to reach the domain.

Hi, I'm trying to setup a demo environment. I guess VPN is working fine because i can see traffic. And also DNS. I even tried using a domain administrator account, so there is no problem with the account.
When i first created a app collection the wizard complained about using domain.local so i tried domain.com and it worked. Later i want to change back to domain.local because domain.com is only a domain suffix and not my real domainname.
Any tips and tricks I can check to get this working?

Well... This was embarrassing. A typo in the network config. Problem solved.

Z77A-GD65 Unable to reach BIOS setup

Motherboard: Z77A-GD65
CPU: i5-3570K
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 660Ti
Memory: G.SKILL 8GB, 2x8GB, 1600MHz
SSD: Intel 330 Series 2.5-Inch
Bios A: A.A
Bios B: A.A
I am dual-booting Windows 7 and Mac. At some point along the way of getting this set up, I have seemingly broken access to my MSI BIOS.
My computer is able to boot into Windows 7 and Mac no problem, and is completely functional in both partitions. But I am completely unable to access my BIOS setup screens (using the DEL key during startup).
When attempting to access the BIOS during startup, I hit the DEL key and it flashes briefly on the BIOS screen (blue MSI logo, but most of the controls are not rendered, the UI looks corrupted) before restarting immediately.
I have tried many times to flash the BIOS to various versions, including the prior 3 versions before A.A and have been unable to reach the BIOS screen.
My most recent BIOS flash was using the Forum HQ tool, and I installed the Intel Management Extensions afterward.
While my computer is functional, I am worried that eventually I will need access to the BIOS to change or update settings and don't like not having this capability. Does anyone have any idea how to get back to a working BIOS? Has anyone seen the problem where the BIOS screen partially renders but then goes immediately into a reboot?
Any help would be appreciated -- apologies if I have omitted any important details. Let me know if more background would help.
Thanks,
Josh

Hi Svet, thanks for the advice. I tried to use the GO2BIOS button which essentially caused the same outcome as when I jam on the delete key during restart.
Basically, it initiates a reboot, the black startup screen begins...
1) I see 9C in the lower right corner
2) then B4 for several seconds
3) then very briefly A2.
4) Then the blue BIOS screen flickers in the upper-left corner (btw, this is only a partially rendered screen, it's only the title bar plus the boot dropdown which is unclickable), then the computer restarts and goes back to step 1.
I also have tried using the ClickBIOS and that just fails to start with an error like "SCEWIN_64.exe has stopped working".
I think my issue is deeper, any further ideas?
Thanks,
Josh

Can't boot into Windows 8 Single Language 64 bit or access the BIOS screen with the F1 key

I have in my possession right now a Lenovo E49, Model name: 3464
I am unable to access the BIOS settings at POST by pressing the F1 key. Neither does it respond to the Enter key when it displays the message "To interrupt normal startup, Press Enter". I am also unable to boot into the installed OS Windows 8 Single Language 64 bit.
For your informtion, these are the events that led to this issue.
I accessed the BIOS settings at startup using the CHANGE PC SETTINGS option in the CHARMS menu in Windows 8 Single Languge 64 bit followed by GENERAL and ADVANCED STARTUP. Then I chose Restart Now. Windows restarted to produce the startup screen where I chose Troubleshoot, followed by Advanced Options and UEFI Firmware Settings, followed by Restart. This took me to the BIOS settings screen. Once there I changed the boot settings in BIOS so that SECURE BOOT was turnned OFF. It was in ON state prior to that. I also changed the BOOT MODE to LEGACY ONLY. I also changed the BOOT ORDER to boot from DVD drive first followed by the Hard Disk and USB Hard Disk. I saved the changes by pressing F10.
Now the computer is able to boot from the DVD Drive. I tested this by inserting a Windows 7 Repair DVD and also a Linux Live DVD. Mind you, I didn't mke any changes to the Hard Drive. I'm also able to boot from a USB Hard Disk. This too was tested by inserting a bootable USB HD that had both Windows 7 and Windows 8 OS installers. I used only the command prompt feature in the Repair option on the Windows 8 installer to ensure that I could access the partitions on the HD. I did not in any way install Windows 7 or 8 on the HD.
If there is no bootable DVD or USB HD inserted, the laptop is involved in a loop that restarts followed by a message that says the following:
"Intel Undi, PXE-2.1 (build 083)
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation
This product is covered by one or more of the following patents:
US5, 307, 459, US5, 434, 872, US5, 732, 094, US6, 570, 884, US6, 115, 776 and US6, 327, 625
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller Series v2.41 (06/08/11)
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM."
I am positive that the current state of the BIOS is such that it does not accept any input keys like F1 and F12 at POST so that the BIOS can only be accessed through Change PC Settings in Windows 8 as I had done prior to the occurence of the issue. Since I cannot boot up Windows 8 I cannot use this method to access the BIOS. And since it is not possible at this stage to access the BIOS settings through the F1 key, I believe Lenovo must have surely provided another alternative to enter the BIOS. Can you kindly tell me what other way is there to do this. In earlier days, one could reset the BIOS by shorting the BIOS through pins on the motherboard. Is that possible now? Or is there some Lenovo BIOS utilily that enables me to change the BIOS setting to boot with Legacy and UEFI? Or do I have to install Windows 8.1 64 bit in Legacy mode?

I'll see if another member of the team can jump in here and offer more help...
What I might imagine is that you can only access BIOS from a cold boot. Windows 8/8.1 have hybrid shutdown and don't completely shut down the machine normally, so even when it powers off, it isn't fully off and the next boot is not really a cold boot.
Please see this KB. I realize this assumes you can get into windows.
As you suggest, it also seems as though you have set legacy vs UEFI and that may be why your drive is not currently booting. Can you remove the battery on your system? If not, is there a reset hole on the bottom? Removing battery and AC and pressing and holding the power button several times, then re-attach AC and Battery and try to restart and press F1 to get into BIOS. (Not familiar with models that use enter for BIOS).

Mac Mini unable to reach NAS while MacBook Air can

Hi Everyone,
I've got an issue with my LAN. One computer on the LAN, a Mac Mini, is unable to reach the NAS even though all other devices can.
The setup is nothing exotic. It's a home wifi router from my local telco provider. On the Cabled interface I have a NAS, on the Wifi side I have several devices amongst which a Mac Mini and a Macbook Air. All IP addresses are handed out through DHCP. The DHCP server is set to assign a fixed address to both the NAS and the Mac Mini.
The Macbook and the Mac Mini can see each other just fine, the Macbook can access the NAS but the Mini can not. The Mini has no other issues to speak of, it can access everything else just fine.
The issue appears intermittent but I have not found a pattern. Rebooting the NAS, Mini or router individually had no effect. Below is a log of commands and output from the mac mini.
What should I be looking for to troubleshoot this appropriately?

Hi Linc,
The NAS responds to pings from other devices on the network.
The Mac Mini has no other issues with regards to accessing the network or the Internet.
I'll restart the router once more to see if this has an effect, but so far no positive change.

Runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst: error Unable to reach any of the nodes

Hii all,
Well, I've gone through the pre-reqs for trying to install 11G clusterware on RHEL 5.3.
I'm to the point where i'm trying to run:
./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n node1 -verbose
I get this:
Performing pre-checks for cluster services setup
Checking node reachability...
Node reachability check failed from node "node1 ".
Check failed on nodes:
node1
ERROR:
Unable to reach any of the nodes.
Verification cannot proceed.
Pre-check for cluster services setup was unsuccessful on all the nodes.
I'm just wanting right now, to install a one node RAC system (I will add servers later as I get them online).
I've verified that ssh is working (thinking it may be trying to connect to itself by ssh). I have the keys generated and installed...if I connect ssh as the oracle user back to the same machine, it gets me right on with no prompts for passwords.
nslookup on node1 looks great.
This box has 2 cards....eth0 and eth1. Right now in the /etc/hosts file, I have node1 to the IP for eth0, and node1-priv set for the IP address eth1.
I do have a little trouble understanding what the node1-vip is supposed to do or be set. I found the an IP address one higher than for eth0 wasn't being used, and set node1-vip to be that.
(Can someone explain to me a little more about the vip host?? Is it supposed to somehow point to node1's IP address on eth0 like the regular one does?)
Since this is a one box, one node install...hoping clusterware and checks are just looking at the /etc/hosts file. I've tried playing around, and setting node1-vip to be the same as node1 (IP)...that doesn't work either.
One thing I can guess 'might' be wrong. Does runcluvfy use "ping"? I found the oracle user cannot ping this box from this box. The box (node1) can be pinged from outside the box...it is registered on DNS, I can ssh into it no problem, and again, oracle can ssh into himself on same box with keys properly generated).
I've been looking around, and I just don't see much of what to look at to troubleshoot with this error, I guess everyone gets past the verification the first time with no host unreachable errors?
I'm a bit weak when it comes to networking. Any help greatly appreciated...suggestions, links...etc!!
cayenne

Ok...looks like this was the problem. It appears the SA's, per newer policy, had turned off "ping" for any other user on the box besides root.
I took a shot in the dark, and had them turn it on (as that ssh'ing and other items to check seemed to work outside the runcluvfy script). They turned on ping. The nodes from the script are now reachable and test positive for equivalency.
Performing pre-checks for cluster services setup
Checking node reachability...
Check: Node reachability from node "node1"
Destination Node Reachable?
node1 yes
Result: Node reachability check passed from node "node1".
Checking user equivalence...
Check: User equivalence for user "oracle"
Node Name Comment
node1 passed
Result: User equivalence check passed for user "oracle".
Pre-check for cluster services setup was unsuccessful on all the nodes.
I"m guessing that last line...was due to not having the clusterware running on any other boxes?
Anyway, will try to config. RAC, and get things installed.
