Windows 7 x64, switchable graphics - often fails (close 3D apps). How to find out reason

I have Windows 7 x64 along with the latest end/2010 ati/intel switchable video driver.
Whilst switchable graphics usually works great after login, it rarely takes long before I'm in a state where the switch will fail - reporting an error that I need to close 3D apps etc.
Even if I close all apps (and check running processes+kill) I still cannot switch, though if I log off/on things are usually back to normal.
How can I find out the reason WHY (exactly the switch fails.
Is this logged anywhere
Can I enable trace
Are there known defects in this area

Hi Sai,
Is your problem solved? If yes, then please mark the thread as answered. If no, then use the following code:
     int failedValidations =     validateRecCmd.getValidationResult().getTotalValidationsFailed();
     if (failedValidations > 0) {
               for (int cnt = 0; cnt < failedValidations; cnt++) {
               messages.addvalidateRecCmd.getValidationResult).getFailedValidations(recrd.getId())[cnt]
                                        .getMessage());
where messages is arrayList which will contain all the error messages where the validations failed.

How to find out if a user is logged into a windows XP or VISTA machine

Hi,
Could somebody please tell me how to find out remotely over a LAN, whether a user is logged into a computer that is running windows XP/VISTA or not? How can this be programmatically done if we know the name of the remote machine?
Thanks.
Ravisara

Hi,
Thanks for all the replies.
Actually it seems that my question has either been misunderstood or has been badly phrased by me.
What I want to know precisely is the way to find out if a user is logged into a machine or not. Say for example in a LAN there are three computers called A, B and C. If my Java program is running on machine C, how can the program check whether a user is logged into machine A? Assuming JRE is present in all three machines, the machines have as their OS windows XP or VISTA and all machines are connected to a windows domain(Windows 2003 server based network)
The idea here is to identify all the computers in a network that users are not logged into and then to remotely shutdown those computers in order to minimize wastage of electricity(preferably after a particular time of the day in an organization).
Any replies would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Ravisara

How to find out the max/min value of one field corresponding to a second field in HANA through graphical way.

Hi,
I am trying to find out the latest delivery date(EINDT) for each purchasing document (EBELN) through graphical way.
The view contains other fields apart from the above mentioned two fields.
When only the two fields (EBELN, EINDT) are there, then in semantics, I can select 'Max' as aggregation to get the maximum value for each document.
If I do like this, then I need to join more than 3 views and also so many joins in calculation view. Taking so much time for data preview.
Hence , please help me in getting the solution while the view contains other fields also.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Jyothirmayi

Hi Sreehari/Vinoth,
Thank you for your replies.
if only two fields are then I can get the max/min values of one field corresponding to other field.
But more than two fields are there with different values, then let me know how to find out the max/min value of a particular filed corresponding to the 2nd field with other fields also should be in the output.
I hope you understood my issue.Please revert in case of questions.
Thanks & Regards,

Windows 7 x64 Pro, desktop GUI fails to display correctly, or crashes, when High RAM load, and even after. HW changed, same issue. Please Help.

Hi Guys,
I have have this horror issue with my PC. I have even changed the hardware configuration and the problem still persists. My PC fails to display the desktop correctly after using highly RAM intensive applications, especially Chrome, but even after getting
the chance to close it, or waiting for it to crash by itself, the PC is still not able to display correctly the GUI, even on other browser/applications as shown in the screenshots.
1st Hardware Config:
Intel Core2Quad Q9450
4x2GB DDR2
MSI P43 motherboard
Ati Radeon x550 video card
Software used, that seemed important for me to mention:
NOD32 v4.2
Comodo Firewall 5.12
Chrome
Screenshot Captor
SpeedFan
Other mentions:
Aero is disabled, because I've considered that it's one of the causes.
So, I've considered that it's a RAM issue or a videocard issue, and I've upgraded to:
Intel Core i7 3770k
4x8GB DDR3
Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard
Intel GPU integrated in the 3770k CPU
The problem just happened 2 times on this rig also, and the RAM was not even coming close to it's maximum capacity of 31.7GB. It was at ~20GB's.
Also, this is another videocard(Intel's integrated GPU), so we can exclude the videocard from the suspects.
My suspects:
1) some desktop manager bugs, or other similar issue
2) video memory allocation - I'm still suspecting that it can be caused by the amount of RAM dedicated to the videocard, currently, I think that it is at 256MB.
3) some poorly designed components of Chrome/Screenshot Captor - still very questionable since there are enough resources on this system, so there should be no fight over resources. And when the system is barely used there are no issues.
4) Adobe Shockwave Flash - maybe this one????
I have attached a set of 20 screenshots here, these were taken on the 1st configuration of my PC, using Q9450:
http://imgur.com/a/Mc8hI#4
Notice how it distorts the image by duplicating it and showing it in a smaller space, or how does it displays those black rectangles. In those moments, the PC is fully functional(the apps are running the background), without being slowish or something, but
you can hardly control it like that. For example, I've tried to remove the mouse from the USB, and then I've insterted it back, the image was not displayed correctly, but the mouse was recognised instantly and the pointer was controlable.
Same thing still happens on the new configuration. Please advise me.
LE: OS is Windows 7 x64 SP1 Professional and it's Geniune. There is no cracked software on this PC. No games. I've tried to maintain it as clean as possible.

Hi,
First, please be ensured that you have installed the latest drivers and all the updates.
Then check whether this issue will not in
Safe Mode. If it didn’t occurred, I suggest you narrow down the cause in
Clean Boot mode.
In addition, try to create a new profile to see how it works.
Hope this helps.

Windows 7 x64 ult. update KB2685813 failed on bootcamp 5.1 (MacBook pro retina late 2013)

Hey,
I have a MacBook Pro late 2013 running Windows 7 x64 ultimate with bootcamp 5.1.5640.
Windows failed to update user mode driver framework 1.11 (KB2685813) several times now.
I did even get stuck during instalation after reboot.
I dont want to risk to lose the windows.
What can I do?
Cheers.

Ok, where is this Intel driver? There is no such thing "program manager" so I am guessing you mean the Programs and features control panel, but on my machine that whole window is blank after a clean install. I still cannot get the USB ports to activate. Two fresh installs and several different USB sticks later and no luck. Should I just give up and go to Windows 8.1? I really need Windows 7 to work if at all possible. Other devices shows one USB controller without driver software so I suppose that's the culprit. There are other USB devices installed under the USB section of Device Manager, but they apparently have nothing to do with the USB ports themselves, just devices like the trackpad etc. I've spent two hours on this so far and it's getting out of control. Why doesn't this work with generic USB drivers?

Windows Update on Windows 7 (x64) on boot camp fails

Running Windows 7 x64 on Boot Camp and trying to install an "important" update from windows update, but it fails:
Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2506014) - Published: 4/12/2011.
I received error code 80073712 and ran System Update Readiness Tool to no avail. Microsoft recommends repairing Windows from the install disc if using that tool fails, but I'm not willing to go that far just yet.
KB 2506014 title is "Update for the Windows Operating System Loader", so I am wondering if there is something about how Boot Camp is configured that is preventing this from installing.
Has anyone else running Windows 7 x64 on Boot Camp received the same error for this particular update, or been successful in installing it? It is thus far the only windows update that has failed to install for me.

U330 + Windows 7 and Switchable Graphics Issue

Just installed the beta version of Windows 7. Only problem I'm having is dealing with switchable graphics. Can't really get it to switch between graphics card. I think it's using ATI which is drawing too much power. Anyone know a way around this? I don't expect this laptop to support Windows 7 yet but it's nice if anyone got any answers.

Maybe right, even if Windows 7 is just a rebuild of Vista kernel and such. When I try to switch to performance I notice the USB device connected sound. And the disconnection sound right away (0,1sec later). I hope lenovo will support Win7 on our laptops too

Windows 7 and switchable graphics stays in "Energy Saving" mode

I installed the latest switchable graphics drivers from Lenovo, and I can't switch to High Performance mode. It always uses my integrated graphics even when I try to select it from the power manager battery menu.
I tried updaing to power manager 3.25 and the latest bios, but still the same issue. anyone have any solutions?

try right clicking the batter icon>go to switchable graphics>high performance.

How to find out the failed sql command and its data from DEFERROR

Hi,
has anybody a procedure or some other possibilities to read the content of column USER_DATA of the advanced replication view DEFERROR in order to find out the failed sql command and its column values?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Vishwa,
             The control would be something like this for navigation in Get_p_xxx method u mention as link and u mention a event name which gets triggered on the click of this hyperlink. So your GET_P_XXX method would have the following code:
CASE iv_property.
    WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_fieldtype.
      rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_event_link.
    WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_onclick.
      rv_value = 'EXAMPLE'.
Now you have to create a method as EH_ONEXAMPLE at your IMPL class and within which you would give an outbound plug method. Within the outbound plug the target data would be filled in the collection and window outbound plug would be triggered.
This is a huge topic and i have just mentioned you basic things.

Bharathy.

How to find out the last closed windows?

I closed several ( 5-6) firefox windows when shutting down my computeer, and after re-staring firefox chose to 'restore previous session' (set by default but failed to so automatically this time). Saddly, in my about:config there was the default of opening only 3 windows, which means that all the others windows and tabs are now gone.
My question is: can I fin out in the history, or or in the some firefox log files, the address of the pages that were open in those windows/tabs. A list of all closed tabs and the time they were closed would suffice. The 'recentely closed tabs' options does not appear to contain that information, only the tabs that were closed in the current window.
Details:
OS: Linux Ubuntu 14.04
Firefox 35.0.1
Cheers.

Hi!
Try STAD transaction. Unfortunately it contains a huge amount of data, so it is available only for a few days backwards... Maybe some weeks, but you can't make yearly reports from its data... So it's not useful to see, which program is in use or not...
I planned once to download it weekly, but it was not so important...

RegEx: How to find out which part of the pattern failed?

Hi there,
I was wondering: is there any way to find out where the pattern matching failed?
Say I got the string "John Paul Yoko Ringo", and I want to match it against the pattern /John Paul George Ringo/.
I would like to know something like "pattern failed at index 11", or if I had groups something like "matching group 3 failed".
Is there any way to do this? Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
- Torben

I wonder if that is reasonable. It means that the parse tree for the regex would need to keep mapping information.
At a minimum it is going to require an array, not a single result, because a regex can 'fail' in many ways.
Consider the following regex with the following input
/(a|b)d/
abababababx
Where does it 'fail'?Right. If you just want the character position at which it failed, those tools might tell you that as part of a bigger picture. But by itself, without any context, that number's not necessarily meaingful. A given character can be examined many times due to backtracking. Part of the expression could succeed for part of the input, then the expression might fail for the rest, so we backtrack, and may get several more failures, then more partial successes, all at different points, then ultimately it may fail anywhere within the input.
So just knowing where isn't enough. You need to know what steps were taken to get there. I do think these tools provide that, though I haven't looked closely.

How to find out from whcih terminal user tried logging in and failed

Hello All,
One of the user is trying to login using master userid (SAP* / DDIC).. But he is failing after three attempts resulting in locking the SAP* / DDIC user id.
We are unable to trace who is attempting this? If we know from which terminal user is trying to login we can find out the person.
Even in SM21 we are unable to see from which terminal user is trying to login..(We can see the terminal clearly in SM04). Could you please suggest us how to trace the person responsible for this issue?
Thanks,
Subbu

Hi,
The terminal details can be obtained through securiy audit logging.
You can enable to Security logging for the users SAP*/DDIC using the tcode SM19 and the logs can be viewed using the tcode SM20.
To to activate the security audit logging you need to set the value '1' for the parameter rsau/enable. The log file size can be set using the parameter rsau/max_diskspace/local. You can set the number of slots to be used for security auditing purpose using the profile parameter rsau/selection_slots in the default profile.
Hope this information helps.
