Windows won't start with Nano connected

My computer won't startup or restart with the nano connected to the USB port. It just hangs on the startup screen. I have to disconnect the nano and do a hard power off and then power up again then connect the nano after computer is started. Everything works OK then. Is this normal? Using Dell 8500 laptop with XP Pro sp 2.

I have the same (or similar) problem with an iPod Video 30GB, and have found a solution. It is not a boot order problem. I've just posted the following as feedback to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93953
There is also another reason why a PC may not start with an iPod connected. It is also related to USB, but is a different problem, and there are different work-arounds available.
Problem: PC will not POST or boot with iPod connected to a USB port
Description:
With an iPod connected to any USB port, the PC will not pass power-on self test (POST), and does not attempt to boot. It remains completely unresponsive to anything except a hard power-off; in particular it is impossible to reach the BIOS configuration screen. This is not a problem with the boot order: the internal disk is first in the boot order, and in any case, POST is not passed and so booting is not attempted.
With the iPod disconnected, the PC boots normally, and if the iPod is plugged in later, the iPod and iTunes function normally.
Solution: either:
1. Disable "USB legacy mouse support" and "USB keyboard and legacy support" in BIOS. Disabling legacy USB mouse support stops a USB mouse being used by BIOS and DOS programs, which is not usually a problem. Disabling "USB keyboard and legacy support" will prevent a USB keyboard from being used at all, which is a potentially serious problem.
2. Boot with the iPod disconnected.
System details: a PC based on the ASUS A7N8X v2.0 motherboard running BIOS version 1008. It has a USB mouse, PS/2-compatible keyboard, and a USB-connected printer and scanner as well as the iPod.
Comments:
This is not necessarily a bug with the iPod, but may be. There are three possibilities:
1. There is a bug with the BIOS implementation of USB keyboard and mouse support
2. There is a bug with the way the iPod responds when the BIOS is looking for USB keyboards and mice.
3. There is a bug in the USB spec itself.

  • SatelliteU300 Won't start with AC power connected and fully charged battery

    I just bought a U300-13U. It works great when battery is charging and AC is connected. However if left to charge up fully it won't start with AC connected. Unpluging the power or removing the battery and running on AC makes it work fine. Is this a 'feature' to stop overcharging or overheating the battery, or just a problem with this machine. I want to run with AC and battery both connected all the time as I have done with all my other laptops.
    Any help appreciated.

    Hello Andy
    Friend of mine has this small U300 and everything work well. I have had it few weeks ago to test WXp installation and it works perfectly.
    Please test it again very carefully and if the same happen again I recommend you to contact Authorized service partner in your country. Let them check your notebook. I must be honest and say that described issue sounds strange to me and please do not wait too long. Contact service as soon as possible.
    Bye and good luck!

  • Using START WITH and CONNECT BY PRIOR in a report

    Hi - I am using Oracle 9i and reports 10g. Does anyone know of a reason why running my sql in TOAD will produce the correct results, but the report is dropping records? I am using start with and connect by prior to build a hierarchy of linked records. The report is dropping the "child records" and only returning records from the route level.
    Thanks you for your help.

    Hello every!
    I can not use 'Start with' and 'connect by' with parameter in creating ADF's LOV?
    How could I do with it?
    Alex

    assuming you are using adf 11g,
    You need to use View Criteria with the View Object attribute that has a LOV model.

  • Windows won't start after downloading driver.

    I recently installed an audio driver for my Lenovo Ideatab Lynx but after restarting the device, windows won't start up. It shows the lock screen but after unlocking, the screen stays blank and wont show the start menu. I think i accidentally installed the driver from the windows 8 page when i do have windows 8.1 on my device. Is this why this is happening and how can I fix it?

    Satellite P205-S6307 
    The only way it will start is in safe mode.
    So you know how to get to the Advanced Boot Options menu using F8. Go there and choose Repair Your Computer.
    When you reach the System Recovery Options menu, choose Startup Repair.
    I've tried several things..
    If that doesn't fix the normal boot, tell us what you've already tried. There's no point in our repeating all those.

  • My PC won't start with only one push of the start button.

    hi guys my pc won't start with only one push of the start button. It takes me 1 to 10 pushes for it to start. I encountered this main bios error once when my pc started but it fixed on its own. What could be the problem?

    Hi
    The problem can be fixed by running a latest BIOS Update on your unit or if it is a mechanical issue it could be the power button itself.. you can call HP tech support if the notebook is still in warranty.. they'll be able to help you.
    Hope this helps.

  • [Solved] Audition won't start with [...\Preferences.cpp-253] error on windows 7/vista x64.

    Hi! You have really nice support for Audition - 3 pages of problems here and no solution. Just kidding
    So i've decided to help those poor users, that encounter the following problem (it may (or may not) arise after installing Adobe CS* with Audition already installed on the system)):
    Adobe Audition crashes at start with the following error:
    [\premiere2.0\Backend\Src\Core\Preferences.cpp-253]
    After applying the Windows XP compatibility mode error chages to:
    Adobe Audition could not find a supported audio device. Please check your device settings.
    Then it crashes like before.
    Uninstalling Adobe Premiere won't help, by the way.
    This problem is somehow related to the audition_settings.xml file in the Data folder and deleting this file solves the problem. You can aslo delete the whole folder - it will be created again on a next Adobe Audition start. Here is the path:
    C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\3.0\audition_settings.xml
    Some technical data on my system:
    OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (don't be confused - it is in every way identical to Windows 7 x64, at least for Adobe products). I have a strong feeling that Vista x64 users may encounter that too.
    Installed Adobe products:
    1. Adobe Audition
    2. Adobe Master Suite CS5 (without premier)
    3. Adobe Acrobat X
    I hope that my post will help you solve the error in the next release!

After the iMac comes up, I can reconnect the display and everything appears to function normally.  I've tried several restarts and the iMac won't start up with the display connected.  Anyone else experience this?

  • Split screen software of LG ultra wide monitor won't start with windows 7 installed with VMWare Fusion

    I am using split screen sofware of LG but it is not working for me with vmware fusion 7. Is this a known problem? I am using an ultra wide monitor of LG (29um65), and installed windows 7 on my mac, by using VMware Fusion. But the software won't work of LG. It won't start. LG can't help me, because normally the software is working by using windows 7 on a windows pc. I got it also working on a  mac , when I used other virtual software as Virtualbox VM, but it seems not to work with vmware fusion 7. Can somebody help me with this problem?

    yes, I think you are right, but I used virtual box in the past, and had no problem with the LG software, so it has also to do wit VMWare Fusion I think.

  • Windows 7 Won't work with GT704WGB - Connects, but can't access internet or ping router

    Upgraded my Verizon DSL.
    I replaced an old WireStream DLS router and NetGear wireless access/router with Verizon's GT704WGB.
    After  I replaced it, Wireless connections from Windows 7 no longer work.
    Help. Any ideas?
    1. The GT704WGB installation seemed to be easy and successful.
    2. I have 3 devices and 4 operating systems
        a. An iPhone - It connects to my wireless network and works fine.
        b. An Acer lap-top running Windows XP service pack 2 - It connects to my wireless network and works find.
        c. An Hp Pavilion lap-top running Ubuntu Linux
             i. It connects to router via cable and works fine.
            ii. It connects to router wirelessly and works fin.
        d. The same Hp Pavilion when booted to Windows 7 doesn't work wirelessly.  :-(
             i. It connects via cable to router and works fine
            ii. When I disconnect cable and connect wirelessly IT DOESN'T WORK. :-(
    What happens is Windows reports the the wireless adapter has connected to the network, but says it is NOT CONNECTED TO INTERNET. Further I can't ping the router, 192.168.1.1. I have checked the IP4 properties and settings for the adapter. They seem
    fine.
    1. Adapter has an address on the network.
    2. DHCP is enabled.
    3. Gateway is provided automatically  by DHCP
    4. DNS is provided automatically by DHCP.
    Pinging router gets no response. Attempting to resolve a name, www.google.com reports unable to resolve name.
    All of this works perfectly when directly cabled to router.
    Any help with how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Solved my own problem. Sorry for the spam. :-)
    Windows does not support multiple gateways. I had foregotten I had a 2nd wireless access point/router plugged into the network (Cisco/Linksys E1000). That router had been working fine in combination with old SpeedStream DSL router from Verizon, but apparently it introduced a second gateway address which was in conflict with GT704WGB.
    Solution:
    1. Unplug Cisco E1000. Reset it to factory settings by pushing red button.
    2. Plug Cisco E1000 back into network.
    3. Use Cisco CD and setup.exe to "install" E1000.
    4. Use Cisco CD and Cisco Connect to reconfigure E1000.
    5. Done.

  • Bootcamp with Windows 7 won't start with upgraded RAM

    Hello!
    I upgraded my RAM from 4Gb to 8Gb.
    OS X works fine but bootcamp with Windows 7 Ultimate x64 wont start. The screen goes black and white cursor is blinking at the top left corner. I have waited several minutes but nothing happens.
    When I remove the ram I just installed, Windows 7 will start normally.

    Are there any other options here? This is quite frustrating. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on my Bootcamp, and upgraded my RAM from 4GB to 8GB (bought Crucial RAM, which should be completely compatible). When I try to boot Windows, I get the blinking cursor hung. This is the ONLY thread I have been able to find that relates directly to this issue. I started to re-install Windows from the bootable install disc, but that tells me it will re-install Windows, and save all the old data in a volume called "Windows.old" and that I can access this data but "will not be able to use my old version of Windows." Maybe that's OK. Since I use my Windows partition exclusively for gaming and 3D sculpture work, I am pretty sure I can just pull all the appropriate data and re-install it in the new version of Windows. But I am leery of going through all this after reading the tale of woe told here that says that even re-installing with 8 GB RAM fresh does not work. Does anyone know of any other resources or options here? I can't even get to "Safe" mode - just a black screen and the blinking cursor.....arrrrgh! Any help greatly appreciated!

  • ITunes won't start up when connecting iPhone

    My wife has been having this trouble for awhile, and now I started having the same trouble too. She has an iMac G5 running latest versions of Leopard and iTunes. I have a Power Mac G4 (Gigabit Ethernet model) running the latest version of Tiger and iTunes I also have a USB 2.0 PCI card which has already been tested and is operating properly. Both of our iPhones are the original model running iPhone 2.0, but this problem was happening on her setup before the 2.0/MobileMe fiasco.
    Basically, iTunes won't start on her machine when she sets her iPhone into the iPhone Dock, even though it does show that it is charging. When she clicks iTunes, it syncs new data from her iMac to her iphone, but new data on her iPhone doesn't transfer to her iMac (remember, this is BEFORE the MobileMe/2.0 update). I've tried different sync cables, plugging it in to different USB ports, and always it's the same- it may work properly when I unplug the cable and plug it back in again, but after I remove the iPhone from its dock and set it back in, it malfunctions the same as I just described. It initiates a sync if iTunes is running, but not if iTunes is shut down. The crazy thing is, her syncing was working perfectly both ways until about two months before the MobileMe/2.0 switch, so I know it has nothing to do with that.
    Today, my Power Mac and iPhone started displaying the same symptoms, but with a twist- I put my iPhone into its cradle, and nothing- no charging screen and tone, no syncing startup, nothing. I turn iTunes off, pull the iPhone out of the cradle, and set it back in again- nothing. iTunes won't even start up; and when I start it up myself, it still doesn't recognize the iPhone is there. I plug the iPhone into a wall charger using the same cable I sync with, and it starts charging with no problems. I plug my iPhone cradle back into my external USB hub, connected to one of the USB 1.1 ports, and the syncing/charging works flawlessly. The weird thing is, my 4th Generation iPod Photo is on a different dock with a different cable, plugged into the same USB 2.0 card, and iTunes starts and syncs with no problems with that iPod every time.
    I've taken my wife's iMac, her iPhone, and her iPhone dock and cable in to the Apple Store's Genius Bar, but they weren't able to figure out the problem. They tried to redirect the syncing issues by trying to demonstrate iPhone 2.0's wireless push/pull capabilities, but they couldn't get that to work properly, even though all the settings on the imac and the iPhone were correct. All they could suggest was that I must have had a "bad upgrade" when I upgraded to Leopard (6 months ago?!?), and that I should try an "Archive and Install" of Leopard again to see if that sorts out the issue- something I do not really have the time to do (and my wife can't really be without her Mac for that long since she uses it for work).
    I see a lot of similar issues on Apple's iPhone support pages with iTunes not recognizing iPhones when they're plugged in, or not charging when plugged in, etc. I've spent a lot of money on our Macs and our iPhones based on the idea (from Apple's own marketing) that Apple's products "just work". And darn it, with all the money I've invested into these products I just want them to WORK- EVERY TIME, without fail! These are the kind of problems I left behind in the Windows world, and I don't want their ugly heads to surface here too.
