Win 7 Pro - Systems reboots for no clear reason after package made available

Hi,
We have made a basic package available in self-service a number of machines in sccm 2012. Users on win 7 pro machines have reported that this package installs automatically anyway and then reboots the pc without warning.
Has anyone seen similar issues or know where we can get some meaningful info from the raft of logs and reports available.
Thanks

There should be no different between Win7 Pro or Enterprise. You need to check the logs Torsten mentioned above to see what the install returned to ConfigMgr.
You could also analyze the Event Logs on the machine, it will tell you what account and install kicked off the machine restart.

    Hello, all!
    I have disabled all overclocking on my mobo and am using 1T settings on my RAM. For some reason(s), I am occasionally getting reboots under Windows XP. I am not playing a heavy game or anything, just burning music and surfing the web. Maybe downloading stuff with Agent as well. I installed all the latest drivers per the FAQ on this site, in the order prescribed.
    One time I got a message saying "Windows has recovered from a serious error" after one of the random reboots and I screen-captured the Windows XP error message after getting back up:
    http://philaphonic.spymac.net/Error-01.png
    Any ideas what is causing my random reboots? Is this software-related? ... Or hardware, you think?
    I have the "use aggressive timings" option enabled in the BIOS. Should I disable that? I have my "AGP aperture" set to 512MB (my total system RAM is 1G). Is that right? Should I allow my RAM to work at 2T instead of pushing 1T? Are this settings even likely to be causing my reboots?
    Thanks for any help.

    Relax your RAM timings a bit, till you find a working combination.

  • 'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone is selected for output.  Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure.  Ideas????

    'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone (3G)  is selected for output.  Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure.  Ideas????

    Thank you for the replies.
    Appearane of 'Music' functions (I>>   > II   <<I,   plus volume slider)  on the lock/log in screen (when first turning on the iPhone) thus far seems without pattern, i.e. regardless of which if any applications are up in the background, and indeed even when all have been quit.
    All visual aspects of 'Music' appear normal after launch including the title scroll across the top in vertical mode. However, while pressing play (>) converts the play (>) icon to pause (II), selected song does not play and the elapsed time bar (upper end between the track count and the repeat/shuffle icons) remains stationary at 0:00 or at any point to which it is dragged.  When using home sharing this same problem persists regardless of what output is selected.
    Hope that may prompt a thought somewhere.

  • Phone randomly rebooting for no apparent reason

    Yesterday my phone started randomly rebooting. No apparent reason. No physical damage. No recent software changes that I am aware of. I have auto-update of apps turned off. Verizon store could not explain it. Forced soft reset did not fix the problem. It happens continually with a reboot, operates for a bit, then instantly shuts off and begins rebooting again until the battery is completely drained away. On the Droid Razr Maxx there is no way to remove the integrated battery so this means it goes until the phone is dead. Seriously overheating it in the process. What do I do?

    The power cycle is what I referred to as a forced soft reset. Does not fix.
    I tried the flush of the system cache. Does not fix it.
    It took some time to be able to copy off the phone data in the 8GB of internal memory during the brief time the phone is available prior to the next reboot cycle. Afterwards I did a complete factory reset. Does not fix it.
    After the factory reset it takes the phone a few minutes to initialize itself. But the phone reboots itself before this phase can complete. I have tried at least 20 times to see if I can get lucky and have it finish before the next random reboot cycle. No success. So now I have a completely wiped phone that can not even get to the home screen.
    I have taken excellent care of my phone. Doesn't get dropped. Spent most of its life in my pocket. No misuse of any kind. It does not seem right for it to just stop working for no reason like this. Is there a way to get Verizon/Motorola to refurbish or replace it?

  • Macs Rebooting for No Apparent Reason

    Hi,
    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.2 at my office and a Mac Pro running OS X 10.8.2 at home, and for the past week or so the both have been rebooting themselves. The problem started with me walking into my office and finding the iMac computer at the login screen instead of my desktop screen saver. At first I didn't pay much attention since it it only happened once, then a few days later again. Now it happens almost every other day. My Mac Pro desktop at home is now rebooting, and has actually rebooted in front of me the past two days in a row just after I start the computer. I have run Disk Warrior and TechTool Pro on both systems and found nothing wrong.
    Has anyone seen this problem or know of a possible Malware that could be doing this? I have looked into the few malware virsues that attack the mac but can not find any of the files that would be associated with some of the these types of malware, for example:
    Intego reports one called "Pintsized", the following is an excerpt from an on line artical:
    To check for this malware, open the following directories in the system to check for the presence of any of the below files:
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
    /System/Library/LaunchAgents
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents
    NOTE: You can highlight each folder path above individually, right-click the selection, and choose "Open" from the Services contextual submenu to open it in the Finder.
    The use of an encrypted connection makes it more difficult to detect and trace, especially since it uses the common SSH protocol. In addition, the malware attempts to hide itself by disguising its files to look like components of the OS X printing system, specifically the following:
    com.apple.cocoa.plist
    com.apple.cupsd.plist
    com.apple.cups.plist
    com.apple.env.plist
    cupsd (Mach-O binary)
    Any help getting to the bottom of this would be very much appreciated.

    Linc Davis, please find the "Console" logs you asked I provide;

    Any advice would be very welcome.

  • Looking for advice on a new Mac Pro system mainly for Final Cut Studio 2

    We are a small video production company that works mainly on broadcast and internet projects. We're looking to upgrade from an aging Avid system to a Mac Pro running Final Cut Studio 2. The primary thing we want from this system is to be able to work quickly in Final Cut while at the same time doing other operations, and we're willing to spend what it takes to make that happen. We've done a lot of research but still have some issues where we could use your expertise - it's a big investment and we want to nail it.
    Here's the configuration we're considering:
    Processor: Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon (8-core)
    Memory: 16GB (4 x 4GB)
    Hard Drives: 300GB 15,000-rpm SAS (for OS X, Final Cut, & other programs) plus 2 x 1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s (for video storage)
    Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600
    We're thinking about spending the extra $1600 to get the best processor available, since we want this machine to be the hub of the business for about five years. Any thoughts on whether to save a bit and go with the 2.8GHz? We've also heard the bus speed presents a bottleneck so the Quad-Core processing power can't be fully utilized - should that have any bearing on our processor decision?
    The memory choice seems right - we'll see how well that works and retain the option to double the RAM, particularly as prices fall and new applications or hardware upgrades become tenable. However, we're thinking of perhaps buying some or all of the memory third-party - any advice on whether this tends to be worthwhile, where to get it, and what to watch out for? It looks like there may some issues with getting proper heat-sinking.
    We like the hard drive plan, though we've heard a 15,000-rpm drive may generate a lot of heat - any thoughts on this?
    The graphics card is where we're most torn - specifically between the Quadro 5600, the GeForce 8800, or perhaps even getting the computer with the standard card (or no card) and getting a different third-party card. We do mostly DV now, but we foresee doing HD projects in the future. We often use a green-screen that's in our studio and also apply minimal 3D effects as well as 3D text. We're debating whether to get the Quadro 5600 right off the bat and hopefully have no issues with it, or whether to get the GeForce 8800 for now and if we have issues then consider upgrading to the Quadro 5600 or potentially something else that would best suit our needs at that time. Would love to receive any and all advice on this issue.
    Also, it looks like we're gonna buy Final Cut Studio 2 and are considering also getting Final Cut Server. It seems the combination would allows us to use the Final Cut suite on other computers (both Mac and Wintel) that don't have their own version of Final Cut installed. Is that the correct interpretation? Any other advice on whether to get FC Server would be appreciated.
    Thanks very much for reading - we look forward to getting any and all advice you may have.

    *Don't do it!* Stick with the dual-2.8GHz config. A jump from that to the dual-3.2GHz gains you only an approximate 9% increase in power at a 52% increase in cost! Not worth it all. That money is much wiser spent on RAM, RAID array, or a broadcast monitor.

    The processor is only one part of the whole, and as I just mentioned, the power:cost benefits are not good.

    Quadro 5600 is pricey, but I'm not sure about its benefits for people in our field. Even if I had the money for it, I would be hard pressed to consider it considering, again, money is liekly wiser spent elsewhere.
    Also, it looks like we're gonna buy Final Cut Studio 2 and are considering also getting Final Cut Server.

    I don't know much about FCServer, but my impression is that it is -- simply speaking -- Final Cut version of Avid Unity. In other words, I am pretty certain that your understanding on that is false. I may be wrong.

  • Why does my system crash for no apparent reason

    I have an Alien Ware computer with ACPI x64-based PC, Intel Core i7-4930 CPU @3.40 Hertz processors,, 32.0 GB memory, running  Windows 8.1 Pro, NVIDIA GeForce GTX690 video cards, and a Dell P2714T HDMI) full Windows touch monitor. I have Alien Autopsy (diagnostic software) which indicates that all hardware is operating correctly without problems, but also  reports  unexpected shutdowns - system cashes. These crashes seem to occur when I am running Adobe Premiere Pro. Does anyone know why this is happening?

    Hi James,
    These crashes seem to occur when I am running Adobe Premiere Pro. Does anyone know why this is happening?
    I would look at the internal temperature of your computer box. Is it within spec?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Disk space keeps dropping for no clear reason

    Lately I have noticed that my disk space keeps dropping. At first I just thought I had more stuff than I realized, but it's getting ridiculous.
    I only have about 12 gigs of music, which is my largest use of space.
    Today I did an archive and install and as I delete the previous system components my memory keeps changing. A few minutes ago it was 675 MB left, now it's 617! And this is after DELETING some applications!
    Does anybody know why this is happening?

    You used the term "memory". We're not sure if you're referring to virtual memory or hard disk storage space. If your VM usage is dropping that is actually a good thing because it is freeing up space on your drive, and VM in the six hundreds for Tiger is pretty good. If you're talking about free disk space on your hard drive you are really pushing it close to the edge and are inviting serious computer problems. OSX requires a lot of free space to function properly; that's space it needs to write temporary files, etc. For example, my VM right now is about 4.7GB but I have seen it at 5.7. If I only had 0.6 GB left like you might only have, my computer would crash if I did something that made it need an extra 1 GB and it couldn't find it. You can check VM with the activity monitor application.

  • My Macbook Pro suddenly, and for no apparent reason, will not connect to the internet?

    About a week ago I went to go online and my computer said I had no internet connection.  Around that same time I noticed that my background on my desk top was back to the factory set background it came with, but I did not change it.  That is the only thing I noticed out of sorts.  I asked the other members of my family if their computers had internet and they DO.  So does my iPod.  I knew it was not my internet service, but my computer.
    There is a "!" on the internet signal icon (top right).  When I click on it I get a message in the drop down menu that says "Alert:  No Internet Connection...."  When I click on that, I get "Network Diagnostics" pane asking me to select location.  I choose 'automatic', 'continue', then 'Wi-Fi' and 'continue'.  Then it asks me to select Wi-Fi network.  I highlight my network then continue.  At this point, the words on the left are Wi-Fi- with a green dot, Wi-Fi settings with a green dot, Network settings with a yellow dot, ISP with a green dot, and Interenet and Server both with red dots.  Then it comes up  * "Network Change Detected - your network configuration has changed.  Click OK to proceed to the next step".  When I click OK,  it asks me for wireless security info.  I choose WEP password and then put my password in, and check the box next to "remember password in keychain", then continue.  Goes right back to the "Network Change Detected" message at the * above  and all the dots to the left accept the Wi-Fi one are now RED.  I just keep going in circles from there, continually coming back to this message no matter what I do!  I have no idea what happened or what to do?! 
    Does anyone have any ideas?  Please help!  I am a student and don't have any money to take it to a professional.  I am the only one in my house that has a Mac (everyone else has PC's) so no one can really help me troubleshoot.  I'm not a techy at all, but can follow directions if anyone can give me specific steps to try. Thank you so much in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have not tested the solution suggested in the article linked above.
    But hope it helps.

  • My Macbook Pro is slow for no apparent reason.

    My mid 2012 Macbook Pro has all of a sudden become really slow.  I really don't know why.  I have shut down my computer many times to try and reset the RAM and everything.  It has 4GB of RAM.  I usually only have about 2GB when my computer starts up.  I haven't had any unusual activity lately.  I've just been doing my normal thing.  Now the beach ball has to spin every couple of seconds sometimes.  I can't even type a full sentence sometimes without it having to load something.  Is there something going on in the background that I don't know about?  I've tried running my antivirus, but it only scanned about 30,000 files (5%) in an 18 hour time period.  I really don't know what's going on and it's frustrating.  Any help is greatly appreciated. If you need any other info posted, just let me know.  I'll be happy to post it.  Thanks!

    Why is my computer slow?
    What antivirus software? Uninstall it accordingly to the developers instructions. You don't need it.
    Check memory usage:
    Activity monitor > Memory > Page outs & Swap Used . What does it read?

  • Moderators deleting Posts on the Logic Pro 8 Forum for NO good reason

    I have been posting a thread about a new application that has just come out - it is really really helpful for people working in the audio industry.
    The moderator keeps deleting this post and warns me NOT to make advertisements.
    I am neither working nor endorsing this company so I find it pretty silly that I cannot help others about this.... Especially when considering how much SPAM email Apple sends out.
    There a million posts from people seeking advice on plug-ins and applications etc... Those posts do not get deleted when people are dropping brand names.
    I have seen numerous of posts about a Apogee Symphony and Plug-In brands without getting deleted. Why delete my post about Snapper from Audio Ease...???
    <Edited by Moderator>

    There is a distinction between making a recommendation to a person who has asked for help and posting your own thread for the sole purpose of recommending a product. The former is permitted, the latter is against the TOU here.
    Case a: A user posts a question, needing help with how to achieve xyz. You reply, and in your opinion/experience you feel that his needs can best be met by a 3rd party application. You recommend it and post a link.
    This is perfectly acceptable here, and done on a daily basis in the forums I frequent. Sometimes a 3rd party app is the only solution.
    Case b: You are excited about a cool new application. You begin a topic that can be summarized by the phrase "check this out..." This topic is an unsolicited advertisement for said application, and thus violates the TOU. It will be deleted.
    I'm not a moderator, just a user like yourself trying to help clarify the way it works. As such, my friendly advice is to try to keep with 'Case a' and avoid 'Case b'.
    As for this thread, it may help to explain the Apple Discussions, and therefore does not violate the TOU for this forum. I wouldn't expect to see it deleted, although if replies become inflammatory it will probably get locked. Again, that's just based on what I've observed here.
    Regards.

  • Linksys WRT1900AC rebooting for no reason...

    I have a linksys WRT1900AC using firmware 1.1.8.16917 and I have noticed the past few days it reboots for no known reason.
    I have pulled the power on it and did a re-boot.  Any sugestions?
    All the best,
    Joe

    There is a known problem with the Network Map app that causes reboots. Don't use it.
    To safely update FW, I recommend doing the following:
    1. Save router config to file first using IE or FF with all security add-ons disabled.
    2. Factory reset the router with all other devices disconnected or turned OFF accept for 1 wired PC.
    3. Reload or Update the FW using IE or FF. Just download the FW file to your local wired LAN PC.
    4. Factory reset the router and then set up from scratch first and test with out loading the saved config from file. Check to see if any problems are fixed before loading the saved config from file. Sometimes you need to set up from scratch with out loading the saved config file. Just safer that way.
