What to do with the message: Activating embedded security chip

Hello,
I've been using a dc7800 for a couple of months without problems, running Windows 7. As the machine had only 1GB RAM, i added two modules of 1GB each last week. Apparently one of the modules is faulty, as the pc would not boot with both modules inserted.
I swapped the modules a couple of times to find out which one was giving the culprit - i removed power from the pc, changed the modules and powered it on again to see if it would boot ok now.
Now, after a few times the message "Activating embedded security chip" appeared on screen every time i powered on the pc. The message stayed for a couple of seconds, then the pc restarted and the message reappeared and so on.
Pressing F10 during boot resulted in a "301 Keyboard error message" together with the "Activating embedded security chip" message, again with a restart after a few seconds.
In an attempt to solve the problem i reset the cmos by pressing the internal switch for 5 seconds. Since then, after powering up the pc i only see "F1 Accept" and "F2 Cancel" on the screen, but keyboard input is not recognized.
Again, the pc restarts after a few seconds.
I upgraded the Bios to v1.32 some time ago, but i have never touched the TPM settings in the bios.
Any suggestion to solve this annoying problem is much appreciated!
Kind regards,
Ruud

What Is Up With The Upgrade & Activation Fee?

I noticed that AT&T is charging both an 'activation' & 'upgrade' fee for iPhone 3GS users:
!http://67.151.114.194/pictures/20090612b.jpg!
Last year I remember AT&T charging me $38 activation fee. I read that the activation fee was cut in half, but they add an 'upgrade' fee which new users don't have. So in other words, AT&T sticks the $36 to you no matter what.
I wonder if AT&T gives a discount for not delivering MMS/high-speed 7.2 HSPA/tethering available?

Not sure why AT&T would charge me 'Activation' when I am already with AT&T.

When I try to play a dvd on my Macbook Pro I get a box with the message " This is only for activated users. To activate go to preferences,donate" this takes me to Mr. Gecko's facebook page asking me to donate $1.99-$4.99.
Any clues on what this is, and/or how to bypass it? If I can report this to someone? Thanks

Sure sounds like malware, unles you installed something from a questionable site, then it's still malware but in a payware form as playing DVDs is free on Mac's.
Unless the DVD has software on it perhaps?
Does this work on any movie DVD or is this a special kind of DVD with software on it from someplace?

Hey aries35,
I found the following that goes over troubleshooting the same issue for the iPhone. I know you have an iPad, but the steps should still apply:
Perform the following steps:
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

While upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 something went wrong and came up with the message "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred [1015]." Now it will not start at all. It just stays on screen with USB and the iTune picture. What can I do to get it going again. I only tried to upgrade because I was prompted to up-grade and now I am helpless. I did a backup before starting the upgrade. The error message did not tell what to do next. Any help is very much appreciated.

Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
carrier .
Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
You could try this

However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight now
and as this is an Apple hosted forum you can get no further help here

What happens with the message

Hi there,
Could anyone point me in the right direction on where to get a documentation describing in DETAIL and step-by-step what is going on with the message inside BTS ?
1. Receive port is receiving a FLAT file or an XML...
2. What's next...
3....

It depends on your Business requirement but basic flow can be like this
Receive Port: listens for messages.
Adapters information interchange with external systems
Pipeline, dis-assembler and sub-components: normalizing the schemas (wire message in its native format) of the internal messages using XML as the common language.
MessageBox: internal XML messages are published here and then are further consumed by Subscribers.
Subscribers (Send Port and Orchestration components): subscribe to internal messages per metadata or message context properties.
When the subscribed orchestration finishes processing the internal messages are re-published in the MessageBox to be consumed by other subscribers.
Send Port: consumes the internal XML messages, converts them to a wire messages through the associated pipeline and subcomponent Assembler.
Finally the adapter is used to convey the wire message to the target system.
You can also analyze the Message tracking to get the required information
Thanks
Abhishek

While trying to burn a CD of a playlist, the disc was ejected with the message: medium write error. What does this mean?

While trying to burn a CD of a playlist, the disc was ejected with the message "medium write error" . What does this mean and how do I fix it?

I had been getting this all morning and checked other messages from the community. THe one which worked was trying a different brand of disc.
I had been using Verbatim which had copied the music fine off the Real Player on my PC at school, but wouldn't work with I Tunes. Tried a Staples and an Office Depot CD-R , both of which did the job.
