| 735117 | 2009-01-05 03:18:00 | My R61e (XP Pro, T7300 @2Ghz, 3Gb RAM) has started mis-behaving recently . . . . symptoms: - After suspending when closing the lid, the fingerprint reader seems disabled, and I have to ctrl-alt-del to log back in - After suspending, all onboard sound and OSD seems to stop working until I reboot - When trying to shutdown/restart, XP hangs for a long time at the 'logging you off' screen, and then just shows the blue background screen (not BSOD) with no dialogue box . Sometimes it will shutdown/restart eventually, but usually I have to hard boot it . I've uninstalled everything I don't need, have run sfc /scannow, and done a scan for spyware/virus's etc . Any further ideas? I really don't want to have to do a rebuild, but will as a last resort . |

| 735118 | 2009-01-05 03:20:00 | What service pack is installed? The BIOS up to date? Its probably a program refusing to quit when you shut down Or if youre using a Nlite stripped cd, you probably removed something important that XP needs WHAT did you remove, when you used Nlite? |

Its probably a program refusing to quit when you shut down Or if youre using a Nlite stripped cd, you probably removed something important that XP needs WHAT did you remove, when you used Nlite? SP3, and fully up-to-date. Haven't touched the BIOS, but can do if you think it would help? And my nLite project was run entirely on VM's. Thinking about it, the problems started after I installed Media Portal 1, and the MySQL database it required (both were removed the following day). |

| 735120 | 2009-01-05 03:43:00 | Hmm I had the same prob with Mediaportal 1 (it loaded ok but crashed more than anything else), when I selected anything In the end I uninstalled it, but it left 3 of the SQL services behind, so I had to remove them in the registry Depends if theres a later BIOS than the one you've got and depends what it fixes Look in event viewer / start / run type eventvwr. See what the errors are under app / system Are the chipset drivers installed? |
