X121e bios loop : "configuration changed - restart the system"

After changing some settings in BIOS i got stuck in a reboot - loop.
* Cannot access the BIOS any more - pressing F1 changes the message to "Entering BIOS Setup Utility" followed by the message "configuration changed - restart the system"
* F12 changes the message to "Preparing Boot Device List" followed by "configuration changed - restart the system" and the system reboots again.
* Tried to remove the battery, pressing the power button for 10-15 sec. and reboot with AC Adapter connected
* Tried to remove the battery and unplug the bios battery for 3 days the reset the bios - doesn't work
* Tried to boot via USB (BIOS update, FreeDOS with BIOS update, Ubuntu-Live-USB) - nothing worked .. didn't change the boot-order - i always prefer USB boot
* Removing hard-disk produces the message "no operating system found"
Are there any tricks for resetting the BIOS to defaults, flashing BIOS without booting from USB?

- there are several people with this issue ...

In service center they said that motherboard is glitchy and needs replacement.
So it was a hardware fault.

[TP x120e] Continuous "Configuration changed - Restart the system." error

I played with my bios (disabled/enabled mic, webcam, LAN and so), but after exiting the bios, Thinkpad x120e reboots continuously with the error message "Configuration changed - Restart the system.". I was not able to boot from any USB/HDD and also I can not enter to the BIOS. Hard bios reset won't help. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello,
Have you tried unplugging all power, including the internal CMOS/RTC backup battery, from the ThinkPad X120e, leading the unit alone for a few minutes to let any capacitors holding a residual electic charge drain, holding down the power button for 30 seconds to complete the operation, then plugging in the AC charger without either of the batteries installed, then holding down the F1 key while pressing the power button to see if that gets you into the BIOS settings?

S430 - Configuration Changed - Restart the System

Hi there,
I have an S430 that is only a few months old and is getting daily use, and while everything with it has been rock solid so far, there have been two instances when opening the lid (to resume) has resulted in a reboot with the following message displayed:
Configuration Changed - Restart the System.
This has been a problem for me as I do a lot of work involving virtualisation and this seems to reset the BIOS completely causing the Intel VM extensions to become disabled. Of course I can update these values again and be on my way for a while, but inevitably it will happen again.
The only options I have changed in the BIOS are enabling the VT-x and VT-d virtualisation extensions, and changing the function key support to "Legacy". I am now attempting to disable the Intel AT module in the hopes that it is related. I have also noticed a BIOS point update, so am installing that at this very moment.
Is there anything else I can do to stop this from happening in the future? Or anyone else with the same problem?

Good to know, CharlyAR. I imagine it will be something specific to what I'm doing but I just hope that it isn't a hardware problem..
Something that I forgot to mention is that I always put the laptop to sleep instead of shutting it down, but sometimes when waking it up it seems to be cold booting, battery isn't an issue either.

"Configuration changed. Restart the system" and then reboot on startup.

I have disabled WiMax in BIOS setup and now my x121e doesn't boot at all - just says that "Configuration changed. Restart the system" and reboots. When i press F1 to access bios setup - nothing happens. CMOS reset didn't help/

In service center they said that motherboard is glitchy and needs replacement.
So it was a hardware fault.

Your help is really appreciated"

Thanks a lot i followed the instructions for safe mode (i found out that i was pressing the C button after restarting) i did whats written there but the repair couldn't be performed so in addition i needed to re-formate the HD so i erased the volume and then repaired the disk--> quite disk utilities --> start the installation from the installation DVD.
Thanks really appreciating your help

The Apple trackpad won't except the "pinch open and close" command on Firefox version 4. It is configured correctly in the system preferences. HELP!

I am using the Apple trackpad with Firefox version 4. The trackpad won't "pinch open and close". It is configured correctly in the system preferences. It also worked in version 3. Anyone have any suggestions?

Do the related browser.gesture prefs on the about:config page still have a value set for those gestures?
Which Firefox function should be performed with those gestures?
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Report program to find the configuration parameters of the system?

Hi,
Is there any standard program in SAP to find out the configuration parameters or the configuration settings of the system and any program to find the configuration settings across systems?
thanks & regards,
siddhartha.
P.S : Points will be rewarded.

Can you concretize your question ? For what purposes ? The "system" is the front-end or server where sap are installed? Chek the RZ20 and ST06. Regards.

HT2341 why does my sound icon grey out and doesn't allow me to make changes on the system settings

why does my sound icon grey out and doesn't allow me to make changes on the system settings

When you go to System Preferences > Sound what does it say for Output? Have you had headphones plugged in? Sometimes the headphone jack gets stuck thinking it has something plugged in when there isn't anaything there. SMC also has something to do with Sound:

Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.

Exchange 2010 SP3 /PrepareAD failing; "A reboot from a previous installation is pending. Please restart the system..." error

I am attempting to prepare our Exchange 2010 Server (RTM) for an upgrade to SP3.
When attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" to prep the AD schema, the command fails and I receive the following error in the ExchangeSetup log:

I am receiving this error when attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" from either of our two GCs and I get the same error from both GCs, so the issue doesn't appear to be related to the individual servers.
What should I be checking, to clear this error so the AD schema update can be performed?

If I go into regedit, I see that under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager there is an entry from when I recent installed Google Chrome.
The entry looks like:
MultiString: PendingFileRenameOperation
Value Data: \??\C:\Program FIles (x86)\Google\Chrome
Is this "pending rename" what's causing SP3 to refuse to install, because it thinks the OS install state isn't 'clean'?

Losing systemprofile after restarting the system

Hi,
I've been dying to know what's this is, and i don't really get it :
It happened 2 weeks ago, i "stopped" windows, and when i went to the office, the desktop vanished, no apps showing in the apps screen (don't know what it's called). And i got a message something like : "C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop
is no available", but i found a fix, copying all the data from "c:\users" into that folder.
Why it's in two locations, users and in windows profiles ? why i lose the data when i copy the folders again and restart the system ?
I ask for an explanation and the fix to the issue, if someone knows the origin please tell me.
System :
- Windows 8.1 single language x64 (updated from windows 8 single language
- Sony vaio SVF15218SFW
- 4Gb of ram
- Intel i5-3337U
Thanks in advance.

How did you stop windows?
Is your profile setup by a company GPO to log in with a assigned domain/company user name and you want your own personal user?
This works for 8 as well, if you tried this method and your computer is a company with GPO"S set, you will need the system admin login to set the GPO not to Clear the user profile upon logout.
Stop = Shut down (sorry, french pc)
No i don't use a GPO, or a company policy, it's my own pc, I use my email to login, not a local account, Besides I get an error when i reboot : "service Service is not accessible..." something like this, i couldn't read the whole thing and it disappeared
a little while after showing, didn't have time to write or screen capture, but as you said it could be a problem with the policy to delete the profile if the pc is restarted. But it appears that even if i create a new local user, and copy all the data from
the old account "c:\users\user" into the the new "c:\users\new_user", i don't think it'll resolve the problem, because it reads the profile from config folder in system32.
When i try to open Group Policy Editor,
with GPEDIT.MSC
i get the error that it doesn't exist as a command.
If i'm the only pc user, then i'm the admin, how can i access that "GPO not to Clear the user profile upon logout".
Thanks for your answers

I have recently started having this problem in PSE8. The Adobe workaround
did work, but I don't fancy having to re register each time I use it.
What I have discovered is that it's nothing to do with the image metadata as it occurs before any image is opened.
It SEEMS to only occur if you use file/open with to open an image in the editor - IE start PSE with that command.
If you close elements down, and start it using programs/PSE/Elements (or your desktop shortcut) - the panorama feature magically works.
Each time I've opened the editor 'automatically' using image/open with, it seems to create the problem.
Hope this helps
