V890 rebooting after replacing CPU board

Hello,
We have a V890 that we had Sun replace a system board on it. It was system board a which had 2 1.8 processors on it. The original system board was replaced because the CPU's were running to hot. Well after the swap the server ran for 20 minutes and rebooted itself. Looking in the log files, all we see is the following message: unix: [ID 796976 kern.notice] System booting after fatal error FATAL Sys Hardware
Sun is coming out with a new board tomorrow, but I thought that I would ask and see if anybody had any ideas. I guess bad luck that a new board is bad?
Any special steps that need to be done after the installation of the new board like a boot -r?
Thanks,
Gary

Dear Riosjr,
According to Apple's service source individual fan failure has two causes: the failing fan itself or the logic board. You replaced the board, so in your situation where one of the fans doesn't seem to receive any electric power, look for cable damage or bend pins inside the connectors.
Lots of success and regards,
Robbert

  • After replacing main board how to install OS X

    Hi guys,
    I had lots of problem with my late 2011 macbookpro, after Apple's main board replacement program, I gave my computer to the service( not apple store, because I don't have one in my city). Now they changed my without any payment but they didn't install any OS X in to my computer and they want to charge money for installinng OS X. Is it normal? (My first question)
    I am trying to install OS Xit but I couldn't manage ( when I gave to my computer to the service I have mavericks by the way.) Now When I enter Os x utilities menu and press reinstall Os x. Os x mavericks screen is appeared. I am connecting wifi and entering my apple id but it says 'This item is temporary unavailable . Try again later'
    Can you help me what can be problem?? How can I install OS X my own?

    My opinion is that you should have had an OSX installed as part of the replacement process.  But my opinion counts for little.
    Try this:  Boot the MBP with the OPTION + COMMAND + R keys down.
    If successful, you should see a revolving globe.  By following the directions, you will be connected to the Apple servers and should be able to install the original OSX that came with your MBP (Lion was the OSX for late 2011 MBPs).
    You will need a solid Internet connection.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook Air 13" Mid2011 won't wake up after sleep again after replacing logic board

    I have replaced my logic board a few days ago for the issue of not waking up after sleep.
    It was good when I was in store and the same night. 
    1 day later, when I put the laptop to sleep by clicking the sleep menu item, I cannot wake it up by all means in the next morning!!!!! Again!!!!!
    I hooked it with a 22" LCD monitor via thunderbold to HDMI+HDMI to DVI.  Will that cause issue?
    I'm not sure when this will end, I cannot just keep replacing my logic board!

    I have a Macbook Air and it also frequently (6 times out of 10) will not wake from sleep mode, only way to revive it is to hold down power button for 10 secs and force a restart. VERY FRUSTRATING!
    I also occasionally use an external Apple 24' Screen (Non LED) and find that the MBAir will often freeze when you plug that into it or unplug it from it.. Perhaps I have a hardware fault on the MB Air? Or will this be fixed in software?

  • Bluetooth issue after replacing CPU's

    I have a G5 that recently had some work done on it. The CPU's where replaced to fix an issue with the fans running too fast. Ever since the tech replaced the CPU's the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse are sluggish. If I put the mouse more than a few feet away from the case it "stutters". The Keyboard has similar behavior. Here are the things I have tried.
    * I have tried replacing the batteries.
    * I opened it up and made sure the bluetooth card has the antenna plugged into it.
    * I have swapped the card with one from another G5 and get the same behavior.
    * I have tried deleting the devices and re-adding them.
    I am at a loss here. Can anyone help?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The representation that this problem occurred subsequent to the service event in which one or more processors were replaced indicates that the party who serviced it is responsible for this issue. Why are you wasting your time attempting to correct it?
    Return your machine to the authorized service provider who effected the repair, explain the problem, and ask them to correct it. Do so before your original warranty, AppleCare extension or 90 day coverage for this event expire.

  • Non HP Supply Installed after replacing formatter board

    I have a Color LaserJet 3800DN that has two toner cartridges that the printer thinks are "out" but I have continued to use the printer fine with the Override At Out setting.  All of my cartridges are genuine HP parts. A few days ago, the formatter board started failing so I replaced it with another formatter board today.  Upon starting the printer with the new board, it immediately complained about "Non HP Supply Installed" for the two toner cartridges that I had been using in override mode.  I've made sure the new board has the same override settings enabled and can't get rid of this error.  What am I doing wrong? 

    Thanks!  Your explanation as to the root cause makes sense.  It's interesting that original formatter didn't have issues with the override but maybe it would have if I had removed the cartridges and reinserted them.  I believe this warning is to dissuade people from refilling their cartridges instead of buying new ones. I eventually figured out that pressing the green front panel button with the check mark would remove the orange LED error and allow the printer to print documents.  I didn't have to disable the cartridge check but that's good info in case the warning comes back. Thanks again!

  • MOVED: Replaced CPU and system wont boot?

    This topic has been moved to MSI AMD boards.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=256743.0

    4300 booted, all drivers functional, everything looks good. Thank you so much for the help. I will now say this is solved and explain everything below.
    Problem: After replacing CPU computer would not boot.
    Hardware: msi 990xa GD55, replacing FX 4100 with FX 4300
    Issue: Computer would not boot. Fans and Mobo lights turn on. No signal to monitor.
    Solution:
    FX 4100 (Core Name Zambezi) and FX 4300 (Core Name Vishera) required different BIOS configurations. Computer was built with Zambezi architecture and the default BIOS ran with no configuration. In order to replace the 4100 with the 4300, a BIOS update (from MSI website, BIOS 22.5) was required.
    After installing the new BIOS via USB flash the system posted properly (into a much nicer BIOS.. UEFI maybe? Not sure, but it has a nice GUI). Am now running on the 4300 with no visible problems.
    Thanks for the support! Can be marked as SOLVED!
    As a side note, for my new build I am looking at a dual Fury X and intel i7 4790k... I was going to buy an Asus Sabretooth Mark 1 but after the support I recieved here I would love to use another MSI. The problem is my build is colored Black and White, and MSI runs black and red. Are there any White and Black MSI Mobo's with socket FCLGA1150 architecture? If that question should go elsewhere please direct me.
    THANKS AGAIN!!!

  • Horror after new logic board installation.

    Hello,
    I have an older 2008 MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz 17" computer which after years or erratic behaviour (overheating and black screen after that) forced me to buy and install new logic board. I've done it myself due to my extensive (unfortunately) experience in baking the old board. All went well. The computer booted however it took very long time to actually load the system. After 20 minutes or so I interrupted this and switched off the system. After switching again it booted quicker and loaded the system as normal. Long story short. All the components register properly under system profiler. However both firewire ports don't mount my external hard drive. The drive works perfectly with other computers. The drive (Lacie) when connected to either port (400 or 800) spins up and indicates connection made (blue light is on). I can even hear it mounting but it never shows up on the screen. The computer literally doesn't see it even after Finder relaunch. I've followed all the usual resetting procedures found on the internet with no results. Same problem with ethernet. It shows in the system profiler, after connecting cable computer sees it but no internet connection is made. The network setting says: self-assigned IP ... and shows orange indicator. I never had any of these issues with my old logic board. Again here I've done all the resetting with no results. Before coming to this forum I've spent the entire week trying to figure it out.
    Can somebody please at least point me in the right direction as to what should I do.

    This is after replacing logic board with new one.
    Actually there are no NEW 2008 MBP logic boards. Apple stopped having them made sometime in 2008 or 2009. All that are available now are used, reconditioned and or left over stock (but I doubt that). Seeing as the 2008 model had a recall for failed nVidia GPUs all of them have been baked and or reflowed.
    So it seems the current replacement 2008 LB you have is also faulty.

  • Replaced CPU and system wont boot?

    I am working on building a new rig but my old one hit a hardware fault recently. After extensive Hardware troubleshooting I have found that I have an issue with my CPU (L2 cache specifically). I have been trying to fix this one while I wait to get all the components for my new system. Anyways, heres the issue.
    I had an AMD FX 4100, I purchased a AMD FX 4300. The motherboard is a MSI 990XA-GD55.(Edited, wrote P67A at first.. wrong mobo)
    I pulled the old cpu and installed the new one (with thermal paste, pea sized in center, pressed heatsink to distribute).
    Attempted to boot. The fans turn on, the lights turn on, but there is no signal to the display and my usb devices (keyboard, mouse) do not light up.
    I pulled the new CPU out and put the old one in, booted just fine. Pulled the out old cpu and tried again, same problem.
    I am currently running on my old cpu. It still works, I just get random shutdowns.
    With the old CPU in place I booted to the bios, set to optimized factory defaults (even though I never did any overclocking), selected save and exit, then reset. Tried the new cpu, again no signal to video, no lights on usb devices.
    Any Ideas?

  • Cooling fans constantly run @ full speed after replacing the upper CPU??

    After replacing the upper CPU on a Power Mac G5 (June 2004), Dual 1.8Ghz PowerPC, model M9454LL/A, all the cooling fans constantly run at full speed. All other operations are normal.
    I've read, "...after replacing or switching CPU locations the Logic Board doesn't properly recognize the CPU's in their new location and a "Thermal Calibration" is needed". Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
    What software would be required?

    Hi-
    Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
    Yes.
    What software would be required?
    The Apple Service Diagnostic disc (ASD) of the proper version for your machine.
    Call an authorized Apple service provider and arrange a calibration, as the disc is not readily available to individuals.

  • What happens after a logic board replacement?

    After a logic board replacement will my hard drive be erased? If so, can I simply restore my entire system from backup using Time Machine? Thank you.

    Your hard drive won't automatically be erased, but some commercial applications may refuse to work, and a very small number of preferences won't be carried over.

  • High temperatur​e after replacing the CPU T2500 - T7200 in T60

    After replacing the CPU from T2500 to T7200 CPU temperature ranges from 70-85C. It seems to me high, I think about replacing thermal grease or thermal paste application. What's better? Do away with the original gray ribbon and attach a new heatsink or better smear toothpaste?
    Solved!

    there was a test done and toothpaste came out close to most themal paste.
    artic 5 should never be used in a laptop.
    it silver and thats a no no on mobile cpu.
    use a non conductive one or a thermal pad.
    the gray ribbon is a themal pad best to use WHAT CAME IN IT.
    reason is that can be a shim and do away with that and no contact.
    you went from a 31 watt to a 34 watt TDP not alot but it gonna run hot.
    75-80 c is hot yea but you have 65nm cpu class thats gonna run hot because it old and getting a lot of work.
    so you all know toothpaste might been used in tests but i not use because it can dry out and you dont know whats in in exacly.
    thermal wise i do belive whats in toothpaste is very good thermal wise but stick with the gray ribbon.
    Please disregard the above post(er).
    I've used AS5 on thousands of ThinkPads with no ill effects, actually the exact opposite. Minimal research of experiences posted by other owners on Bill Morrow's ThinkPad Forum will confirm this statement as well. Arctic Silver is as good as it gets unless one wants to spend $50 for a tube of thermal paste.
    To OP, your machine is running way too hot for the CPU in question. My 15" T60p with T7600 idles under 50 degrees C, and doesn't go over 62 in normal use. And yes, it has AS5 in it.

  • IMac G5 serial number missing after main logic board replacement!?

    After replacing the main logic board on a 15-days old brand new iMac G5 2 GHz 20-inch TFT, the computer serial number no longer shows on" Apple ()/About this Mac" or on "System Profiler/Hardware Overview/Serial number".
    As far as I know that is normal, but my question is: is there a way to show the serial number (old or new) again? Resetting the Firmware perhaps?
    Thanks.

    I got a new serial number sticker to put on the stand base. It also inckuded the new MAC Address for network use.
    I would call and see if they can send you one.

    Thanks,

    But since techs are not themselves given (allowed) too much information, my feeling is that some of them do things in a different way, depending on how they understand it.
    AASPs and Specialists do not alter serial number information in any way whatsoever, including transfer or assignment of serial number to new components. They are not given the proper tools to do it, and thus aren't supposed to hop into NetInfo or a text editor and change language project strings.
    The French serial number assigned erroneously to that fellow's board got there because it was a refurbished board whose original serial number had never been wiped or Apple themselves assigned the wrong number, not because an inattentive service tech did anything wrong.
    Now, if some service tech DID decide to take it upon himself or herself to hack a serial number there, you still need to contact Apple, 'cause that isn't supposed to happen, and you still don't have a proper serial attached to the board.
    Believe me on this one.

  • MSI P45-8D problem: reboot after loading startup services (windows seven 64bit)

    hi guys!
    I decided (buying a cooler master elite 360) to keep my Memory Lover (whit ddr3/ich10r, pci-ex 2.0), which is actually the 'best purchase for me (rather than a G41 mATX) .
    But then, after I had solved the problem of overheating in the pci-ex, and I put the board in its box for weeks, now has a new problem:
    Continuous blocks & reboots just after loading startup services windows seven!
    The setup is this:
     Windows Seven 64bit
     MOBO MSI Memory Lover
     CPU Xeon L3110
     VGA MSI Radeon HD5450 1gb ddr2 fanless
     DDR3 1333 4GB
     PSU Tacens Radix V mATX 35Watt Velociraptor + Caviar Green
     DVD burner (sata)
     Esi pci-ex sound card connect module
     Creative Xtreme Gamer (disconnected for now)
    I have many ram models that I can put in:
     kingston lovo 4gb 1333
     4g-skill eco 4gb 1333
     adata green 4gb 1333
     corsairs white 8gb 1600
    All memories can work undervolt at 1.35volt, but-of course-I keep them in standard 1.5Volt for more stability
     I also tried a single 2gb stick at a time, but nothing has changed
    when the system reboots (I infer) windows finished loading all the startup services (including antivirus, network drivers, audio drivers, etc. ..). and I can say with near certainty, that the last major service that is loaded, is the catalyst control center ...
    I suspect an incompatibility with Memory Lover &  the Video Card's ATI driver ..
     I also tried to uninstall and clean with driver sweeper, but the problem remains ..
     Besides this I also have a problem with the temperature of the processor xeon l3110 (45watt tdp)
     cpu heatsink as I have a Arctic Freezer LP 11 (Capacity Cooling 100W).
     with thermal compound pre-installed I had 60/70 degrees recorded.
     I changed the thermal compound with the famous Prolimatech pk-1 and now I measure 80/90 degrees ...(and I've changed a lot of thermal compound that I put with my eyes closed)
     now, this is not possible because:
     -I know the processor, I kept in daily use at 3Ghz with a noctua nh-U9B se2, and in summer never exceeded 40 degrees (d 'winter was about 30 degrees)
     - Either with the Scythe kama thermo, that with my finger, the heatpipes of the Freezer 11 LP, the Mosfet, the NB & SB are all cold .. the 5450 is 40 degrees or so, but it is fanless, and its temperature is in its normal ..
    What can you tell me of my two problems:
     - Continuous reboots after loading windows seven
     - High temperature cpu (probably not real)
     I remind you that a few months ago the team & Memory Lover Xeon L3110 worked perfectly.
    The PSU is a new 350Watt Tacens Radix V mATX ... the system at idle consumes 70/80 watts (measured at the wall) ... I think it Is not a problem of the little power supply for the needs of my system ..
    and anyway I can try to use an old Enermax 450watt Liberty, which I keep for emergencies..
     thanks
     max

    guys,
     I solved the problem!
     the sink was installed wrong, and did not touch on the processor!!!  
     the problem was the mosfets around the cpu that make thickness in height ..
     the thermal paste was put well and ... still immaculate!
     processor took about 20 (or more) of restarts and very high working temperatures!
     it rocks!!  
     I can now say that the 'AC Freezer 11 LP is sensational!
     The Xeon L3110 (with EIST, C1E & Acpi active together, That downclok it) works now to 23-25 ​​degrees!!
     I have installed the ddr3 kingston 4gb Lovo 1333 + 8GB Corsair 1600 1.35Vram white.
     (with 12GB, I can easily do a large Ramdisk for temporary files).
     I installed hd5450 driver manually, but still the catalyst control center does not appear at startup
     here is the screen of the situation:
    finally...but how did I doubt the quality of this MSI board?
