How Educational Institutions Can Sustain Success For The Long Term
And it's all because of a new health-care platform from Apple. QVR Center offers a central management platform for multiple QVR Pros, while QVR Guard provides dependable redundancy for QVR Pro, ensuring uninterrupted surveillance recordings. If tracking devices for kids on NEXSPY use an iPhone it's a little better but the Android app needs a bit of clean up. Today, even little kids have phones and know how to use them: how to send messages, make a call, install an entertainment application; make photos and videos and share them on Snapchat. The intensification of smartphones and devices mobile apps have phenomenal growth in current stuff. In the weeks after Screen Time was released, 11 of the 17 most-downloaded screen-time and parental control apps were removed and restricted, according to the Times. You can view the screen time details of your kid similar to how you can see on your own activities. Free Guide: Too Much Screen Time?
You may count on those popular features like Snapchat password tracking, logging keystrokes, GPS location tracking, and much more. Parents who want to know the child's location or monitor the child's phone will be pleasantly surprised that there is a large variety of spyware programs that can do that hack. Here are ten most popular and effective Snapchat monitoring applications due to our hack experience and various online testimonials. There are no risks for you. There is no chance a target device owner will realize he or she is on your monitor. The application works perfect and can satisfy needs of almost every user out there. Let's find out how to find the best applications for Snapchat monitoring. You can track your kids' Internet activities such as their WhatsApp, Snapchat, Facebook, and many other instant messaging applications. They also provide access to messages on Snapchat, photos, videos and other apps. Monitoring call logs, reading messages on Snapchat, view photos and videos, hack the data files.
You just need to get physical access to the target device and within few minutes install the hack application on it. The download and installation of the spy app don't require any special knowledge and takes a few minutes. This is a separate app that is available with the Extreme package of the FlexiSPY spy phone app. You can choose a service package and pay only once, unlike the others where payments should be carried out, or monthly, or annually. You can also set iOS parental controls for the types of music Movies, TV Shows, Books, Apps, and Websites your teen can see on their phone….as per preset categories. You'll see frequently visited sites and the entire browsing history, whether it's on an iOS or Android phone or tablet. This app is for both Android and iOS devices. It is a perfect hack choice to use on Android devices. Gaining access to the app, you can hack someones Snapchat password no survey. You can set it up to record video clips when it detects motion, too.
Some of the features include Caller ID (set up your friends and family with picture/ ringer ID), phonebook that syncs with work and personal contacts, photo sharing through myspace, photobucket, picasa or facebook, and a fully customizable home screen. And it is possible to set several gadgets as well. If you've got an iPhone, have a quick search on the App Store and you'll see hundreds of apps designed to help you keep an eye on what your children are doing online. With regards to creating versatile applications, we have the comfort of looking over a wide accumulation of programming dialects. This hack application has a huge advantage over other spy apps. A good option to hack someones Snapchat password online is to enable the keylogger feature of the spy program. Companies that provide these spy apps have a good and comprehensive customer support. Mobile spy apps have a wide range of functions to spy on different messengers that became a huge part of our everyday life.
KeyMonitor is one great advantage over those free and cheap spy applications – it is undetectable. Highster Mobile and mSpy are two of those magic spy applications that allow you to track iPhones remotely without installation and even jailbreak. Control over all installed applications of the target device. Its control panel will allow you to hack any activity on the target device and be aware of what your kid does and who he communicates with. If you majorly use Windows devices, then you should definitely use this parental control software free that supports all the major Windows versions. It is easy to use and to install on the target phone. They pay a high price for a phone that is fully functional, good looking and has all the accessories and users' manuals. Snapchat spying and other instant messengers are on the list; the price of the hack program is affordable and would be a great start even for those users with no experience. Everything you need is to register your account on the official website of the hack program. And it is fair due to its great compatibility and hack qualities.

By Ella Higginson
The soft-toned clock upon the stair chimed three—
Too sweet for sleep, too early yet to rise.
In restful peace I lay with half-closed eyes,
Watching the tender hours go dreamily;
The tide was flowing in; I heard the sea
Shivering along the sands; while yet the skies
Were dim, uncertain, as the light that lies
Beneath the fretwork of some wild-rose tree
Within the thicket gray. The chanticleer
Sent drowsy calls across the slumbrous air;
In solemn silence sweet it was to hear
My own heart beat . . . Then broad and deep and fair—
Trembling in its new birth from heaven's womb—
One crimson shaft of dawn sank thro' my room.
REFLECTIVE MUSIC: Dawn on the Moskva River by Modest Mussorgsky
By Billy Collins
Why do we bother with the rest of the day,
the swale of the afternoon,
the sudden dip into evening,
then night with his notorious perfumes,
his many-pointed stars?
This is the best—
throwing off the light covers,
feet on the cold floor,
and buzzing around the house on espresso—
maybe a splash of water on the face,
a palmful of vitamins—
but mostly buzzing around the house on espresso,
dictionary and atlas open on the rug,
the typewriter waiting for the key of the head,
a cello on the radio,
and, if necessary, the windows—
trees fifty, a hundred years old
out there,
heavy clouds on the way
and the lawn steaming like a horse
in the early morning.
REFLECTIVE MUSIC: Morning Song by Arnold Bax
A Musical Instrument
By Elizabeth Barrett Browning
WHAT was he doing, the great god Pan,
Down in the reeds by the river ?
Spreading ruin and scattering ban,
Splashing and paddling with hoofs of a goat,
And breaking the golden lilies afloat
With the dragon-fly on the river.
He tore out a reed, the great god Pan,
From the deep cool bed of the river :
The limpid water turbidly ran,
And the broken lilies a-dying lay,
And the dragon-fly had fled away,
Ere he brought it out of the river.
High on the shore sate the great god Pan,
While turbidly flowed the river ;
And hacked and hewed as a great god can,
With his hard bleak steel at the patient reed,
Till there was not a sign of a leaf indeed
To prove it fresh from the river.
He cut it short, did the great god Pan,
(How tall it stood in the river !)
Then drew the pith, like the heart of a man,
Steadily from the outside ring,
And notched the poor dry empty thing
In holes, as he sate by the river.
This is the way,' laughed the great god Pan,
Laughed while he sate by the river,)
The only way, since gods began
To make sweet music, they could succeed.'
Then, dropping his mouth to a hole in the reed,
He blew in power by the river.
Sweet, sweet, sweet, O Pan !
Piercing sweet by the river !
Blinding sweet, O great god Pan !
The sun on the hill forgot to die,
And the lilies revived, and the dragon-fly
Came back to dream on the river.
Yet half a beast is the great god Pan,
To laugh as he sits by the river,
Making a poet out of a man :
The true gods sigh for the cost and pain, —
For the reed which grows nevermore again
As a reed with the reeds in the river.
REFLECTIVE MUSIC: Prelude to Afternoon of a Fawn by Claude Debussy
Bryant Park at Dusk
By Geoffrey Brock
Floodlights have flared on behind and above
Where I sit in my public chair.
The lawn that had gradually darkened has brightened.
The library windows stare.
I'm alone in a crowd—e pluribus plures.
Far from a family I miss.
I'd almost say I'm lonely, but lonely
Is worse, I recall, than this.
Loneliness is a genuine poverty.
I'm like a man who is flush
But forgot his wallet on the nightstand
When he left for work in a rush,
And now must go without food and coffee
For a few hours more than he'd wish.
That's all. He still has a wallet. It's bulging.
It floats through his brain like a fish...
Money for love: a terrible simile,
But maybe it's fitting here,
A couple of blocks from Madison Avenue
Where commodities are dear,
Where all around me, rich skyscrapers
Woo the impoverished sky,
Having sent on their way the spent commuters
Who stream, uncertain, by—
And as for this whole splurge of a city,
Isn't money at its heart?
But I'm blathering now. Forgetting my subject.
What I meant to say at the start
Is that I noticed a woman reading
In a chair not far from mine.
Silver-haired, calm, she stirred a hunger
Hard for me to define,
Perhaps because she doesn't seem lonely.
And what I loved was this:
The way, when dusk had darkened her pages,
As if expecting a kiss,
She closed her eyes and threw her head back,
Book open on her lap.
Perhaps she was thinking about her story,
Or the fall air, or a nap.
I thought she'd leave me then for pastimes
More suited to the dark.
But she is on intimate terms, it seems,
With the rhythms of Bryant Park,
For that's when the floodlights came on, slowly,
Somewhere far above my need,
And the grass grew green again, and the woman
Reopened her eyes to read.
REFLECTIVE MUSIC: At Dusk by Arthur Foote
By Lisel Mueller
Johannes Brahms and
Clara Schumann
The modern biographers worry
"how far it went," their tender friendship.
They wonder just what it means
when he writes he thinks of her constantly,
his guardian angel, beloved friend.
The modern biographers ask
the rude, irrelevant question
of our age, as if the event
of two bodies meshing together
establishes the degree of love,
forgetting how softly Eros walked
in the nineteenth-century, how a hand
held overlong or a gaze anchored
in someone's eyes could unseat a heart,
and nuances of address not known
in our egalitarian language
could make the redolent air
tremble and shimmer with the heat
of possibility. Each time I hear
the Intermezzi, sad
and lavish in their tenderness,
I imagine the two of them
sitting in a garden
among late-blooming roses
and dark cascades of leaves,
letting the landscape speak for them,
leaving us nothing to overhear.
REFLECTIVE MUSIC: Piano Concerto No. 1 (2nd movement) by Johannes Brahms

Beautiful new spindle from the Spanish Peacock and fiber from Miss Babs. This combo is pure decadence. I'm so happy to receive such a thoughtful gift! While I've had less time to spin lately this little beauty has me excited again.
Tried out a wonderful hand braided and dyed bridle/reins set this week. I must learn to do this so I can do some space dyed sets.
Enjoying digital photography.
Working on learning how to paint on the ipad. Using the Procreate App has been very enjoyable.

"All I remember about the start of The Hobbit is sitting correcting School Certificate papers in the everlasting weariness of that annual task forced on impecunious academics with children. On a blank leaf I scrawled: 'In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.' I did not and do not know why. I did nothing about it, for a long time."
"I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me." ― Isaac Newton

New Year's Eve is a celebration all around the world. For Taxify drivers it means an outright busiest night of the year. To make the most out of your trips that evening, it's good to know, when will people actually be going to and coming from parties.
We looked over our data from last year and created the graph below, This can be used as a forecast for people's behaviour during "18 turning 19" festivities. The higher the column, the more people tap their phones to request a ride at that hour.
As you can see, the busiest time in starts in the evening at about 20:00 and ends in the early hours of the next day. Talk about festive spirit! During the time of the highest demand, the number of people requesting a ride exceeds the usual demand by more than two times. To keep you going, surge pricing may be applied in the busy areas during these crazy hours. Also, don't forget to fuel yourself and your car up before peak times.
Quite possibly, most riders who step into your car on New Year's Eve are in a funky and festive mood. So, some upbeat music, a few jokes and and a good attitude definitely go a long way.

The TCEQ has to listen to the public's ideas when submitting their State Implementation Plan to come into the (inadequate) Ozone 75 ppb compliance set forth in the Clean Air Act.
YOU have til' 2/11/15 to get your comments in, so please click here. Select the
fourth sixth one in the drop down box (2013-015-SIP-NR…) that corresponds to "Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Attainment Demonstration State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision"
The Public Hearing was held at Arlington City Hall on January 15, 2015 and took on a life of its own as Downwinders At Risk representative, Jim Schermbeck, (at five minutes into the following video) deputized the citizens in the audience. We pledged to help persuade the Texas Federal Marshals and the EPA to M A K E TCEQ do its job to uphold the Clean Air Act.
Read the Downwinders at Risk blogspot details here.
The meeting opened with informal Q&A of TCEQ staff with the public. Harriet Irby was quick to seize the opportunity ….
David Cozad was offered a "side" conversation with someone regarding the lame answers he received on why solar isn't being embraced/included in modeling by TCEQ.
I grilled them about who would take responsibility to use closed flowback tanks in Urban Drilling since the federal and local Arlington government failed us…they deferred me to the RRC at which I retorted sarcastically… "the same RRC that is ignoring the Denton fracking ban".
Smitty Smith and two nurses spoke as well as some others at this poorly attended hearing. Across town in Irving being held at the same time was a frackquake meeting, so maybe thats where the other people that like to breathe clean air was last night?
What I felt was THE MOST IMPRESSIVE SPEECH of the evening was by Faith Chatam..
Lon Burnam, former Ft Worth House of Representative, shared with us his story of his breathing problems as a child…
Thank you Lon Burnam for all the years of faithful service to the public.

Bias is a term frequently used in forecasting and six sigma. Bias is the term used when a consistent deviation occurs from the mean/average. The deviation is always in one direction (either high deviation or low deviation). When forecasting a zero bias would represent a perfect forecast. In six sigma 0 deviation would represent absolutely no deviation from the established standard.

The Acorns welcomed bottom of the league, Ditchling to Hempstead Field on an exceptionally wet and blustery December afternoon for the last home fixture of 2018.
While the game was officially conceded by Ditchling due to a lack of player availability, both sides were determined to play the game for personal pride.
They also wanted to ensure that the Supporters' Christmas Luncheon had the required post-Turkey and Harvey's entertainment as advertised, writes Gordon Buckland.
Uckfield were forced to make a couple of last minute changes with Tom Wilding moving into the second row and George Payne transferring to outside centre.
Uckfield started the game playing with the wind to their backs looking to ensure they continued to play in the same consistent matter which led to their recent run of results.
After the initial back and forth, Uckfield found themselves within ten meters of the Ditchling line. Good forward play resulted in Matthew Evans eventually being the forward to flop over the line from short range. The extras added by Buckland.
A short time later, Uckfield were pressing again with well controlled ruck ball in the Ditchling 22. Eventually the pressure led to large holes in the Ditchling defensive, allowing M Evans the opportunity to connect with a well timed Jack Newcome pass to dive in after 12 mins. The extras being added again by Buckland.
Uckfield continue to run very controlled passages of play and defend any Ditchling attack well.
On the 18 minute mark, after a number of rucks, Captain Steve Hartfield, took a fantastic running line to break two tackles and slide in for The Acorns third score.
While Hartfield's score was a well worked effort from the whole 15, Uckfield's forth was slightly less organised.
After some rather dubious kicking skills by M Evans, including a cross field grumbler kick, Zak Mallet won a 40 meter foot race to score. Again converted by Buckland.
While the Acorns were 28-0 up at half-time, the feeling in the dressing room during the break was one of frustration of missed opportunities and at times poor discipline.
Uckfield came back after the break full of ambition to start playing more rugby, and within two minutes first team stalwart Newcombe crossed the whitewash after some good interplay between forwards and backs.
Ditchling were beginning to show more in attack in the second half, and did put some pressure on Uckfield.
It was winger Ian Page-Mitchell who scored Uckfield's sixth and centre George Payne adding the seventh on the 60th minute mark.
Given the now exceptionally poor weather conditions it was hugely positive to see Uckfield playing more expansive rugby and scoring tries through the backline.
As the conditions worsened, Uckfield scored their eighth try from the line out catch and drive, M Evans adding to his tally. Two minutes later, the older, heavier Evans, Lee, finally played himself into a try-scoring position and danced past the now very tired Ditchling defence.
In the closing minutes, Ditchling were able to steal a try following calamity between M Evans and Charlie Buckland.
Exceptional spirit
While the final score was 57-5, huge credit and thanks must go to all the Ditchling players. The game was played with exceptional spirit and they showed a determination and passion until the final whistle.
All of the Uckfield players and supporters were thankful for the game and enjoyed the afternoon.

While these templates are really nice, they really aren't boxart. I would recommend you to take more time and to REALLY focus on one specific design, rather than posting a bunch of the same ones with slightly different coloured variation.
Take your time and try not to work with vectors to challenge yourself.
[ Reply ]
they are not boxart but canned?)))))))))))))) .templates designed specifically for logos and I really like them and I like my styles that I show you black gold and silver so I'm unlikely to give up this shit I like it very much.about the vector, if I set myself a goal, then I achieve it...

about a week ago the sound on my laptop stopped working. i got the red x along with the no audio device installed message. i did a system restore, tried downloading a new audio driver, tried updating the driver but whenever i do i get a message that says the driver loaded incorrectly code 10 error wont let it start. i've tried the realtek driver and i get that message, the only time it doesnt happen is when i install the conextant audio driver but that only works temporarily, so i know my speakers are not busted. i went to the hp website to ind the correct driver but when i attempted a download i got another error message,"Driver Installation Failed: Could not find the device for this driver." as you can probably tell i know very little about computers. i have an hp pavilion dv2000 and am using vista with a 32 bit. any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
I recommend downloading and running DAP. It can help sort out any driver and firmware related issues on your system
It's worked out well for many of us in the past.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloaddap.org. (This link will open the download page of DAP so you can save a copy to your computer.)

My "Emachines" windows xp is having problems with the sound card. I need help fixing this problem such as either downloading a free one or just help so that my computer can jack up with my speakers.
Any help?
hey guys, my sound won't work on my computer and i've been told i need to update my drivers but i'm not sure how to do this for free. My c - media Audio device version 126.96.36.199 for windows xp is not responding. Everytime i browse the web for an update i keep getting bogged down with people trying to sell me auto driver updates who at first appear free. The only thing that's free is the initial scan where i'm told that i have 44 out of date drivers and if i pay 29.99 then they will all be replaced with the correct ones. Please help, i'm sure i must be able to update for free i just don't know how!!
Go to the web site of the manufacturer of your computer and get the audio driver for your make/model number of your computer.
Howdy folks, I recon most of you probably seen this problem before. I browsed around the forums and the internet a bit to see if somebody was successful in solving it. No luck so far.
All people who had this problem I seen online had Realtek Audio Drivers, I have VIA HD Audio Deck. When I go in control panel>device manager I see a faulty Audio Device with Code 10, the device is manufactured by Microsoft, not VIA. I tried uninstalling it but it reinstalls right away and still shows up as faulty with code error 10. I also tried uninstalling all VIA HD Audi drivers but that didn't help either.
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77MX-D3H
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
GPU :EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB
CPU: Intel core i5 3550 3.3GHZ
Sound cards: (1) NVIDIA High Definition Audio (2) High Definition Audio Device (3) High Definition Audio Device
I don't get the last two. Only one of them seems to be working and it's also manufactured by Microsoft.
All drivers are up to date.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi there,
So when I woke up my computer from sleep this morning, for whatever reason, the sound didn't appear to be working. Nothing seemed to be amiss, but I simply wasn't getting any sound. When I clicked on the speaker icon and tried adjusting the volume, the bar would show up, but there'd be no sound.
So I tried restarting the computer, and the speaker icon now had a red cross next to it, and says "No audio output device is installed" when hovering over it. Clicking it brings up a "detecting problems" window, but it always says that no problems have been found, and/or that hardware changes may not have been detected.
When I go into device manager, there's no tab for "Sound", instead, it shows "other devices" with a question mark symbol next to it, and below it is "multimedia audio controller", which has a yellow warning triangle next to it. Trying to update the drivers does nothing, it apparently can't find any. When I click on the properties for the device, it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)".
I can't seem to find what manufacturer it is or what not, since it lists everything as being "not known".
My computer is a Windows 7 64 bit, doesn't appear to be having any other issues currently aside from the sound not working at all. I've tried plugging in headphones as well (via the USB) to see if I could get sound from that, but nothing.
I haven't made any changes to my co... Read more

Hello. I installed a few recommended Windows Updates on 1/15. After the update, install, and computer refresh though, my audio stopped working. I went to Control Panel and tried opening up my audio driver, HT Omega Claro Halo, but the driver wouldn't open. I then checked my Device Manager and found the oh so fun error code 52 associated with my Claro Halo audio driver. You know, the one that says,
"Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"
I then rolled back my C drive to a previous restore point I made a few days ago and it was working again which means that something in the update was messing up my audio driver. I re-downloaded the Updates and uninstalled the drivers. I downloaded the latest driver but that didn't work and I am still getting the same error code 52. I know the F8 trick on start-up that disregards the digital signature of drivers but that is only a temporary fix and definitely NOT what I am looking for. I'm looking for a permanent solution. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out here. Thanks.

Hey! First things first, I'm running an Aspire V3-772g laptop. After the recent Windows 10 update, I was having issues getting past the lock screen (took AGES to get to the point where I could input my password) and it had been a while, so I reformatted ('reset my PC' deleting all files) - this actually didn't solve my problem, so I used Rufus with a Windows 10 iso from Microsoft to delete all partitions and REALLY start fresh. Ever since, the laptop is running like a dream--in all but one respect. It seems like no matter WHAT I do, I CANNOT get my HDMI audio / TV to appear as an option in Playback Devices (yes, disabled devices is ticked). Looking in Device Manager, the High Definition Audio Device has an exclamation mark is throwing a code 10 - device unable to start. I've tried uninstalling it, tried installing all drivers from Intel's V3-772g page including chipset, updated my graphics driver / Realtek / Intel HD audio drivers... and yet, nothing. Ran /sfc, ran /chkdsk, nothing. I read something that led me to believe .NET framework might be part of the issue--and I did actually have quite a bit of difficulty getting 3.5 installed / functional, but I finally did...... and still, nothing!! I'm seriously losing my mind. I'm having to run my surround sound through an auxiliary cable into the laptop, which is just sacrilege and a fraction of the quality. If there is ANYTHING, ANYONE can suggest beyond the above, please do!!Read other answers
My IDT audio works fine and my laptop's sound works fine, but when I hoop up my laptop to my TV through a HDMI cord I get my laptop's video output displayed on my TV but no sound from my laptop is output to my TV. I think the problem is because there is something wrong with my High Definition Audio Device. It has a yellow triangle next to it with a ! in the middle of the yellow triangle in device manager under Sound, video, and game controllers. And when I click properties on the High Definition Audio Device, it says, " This device cannot start. (Code 10) {Operation Failed} The requested operation was unsuccessful". Any help would be great. Windows 10 is CLEAN installed on a NEW HARD DRIVE. I DID NOT upgrade, windows 10 was clean installed from a disk.
Hi: Yes, that is the Intel HDMI audio device that is having a problem. See if this works...right click on it, and select uninstall. Check the Uninstall Driver box and restart the PC.

Hi @JS2045 The problem HD audio device you are seeing is the Intel HDMI audio device that needs a driver. I looked around for a W10 driver for the hardware ID you posted, and can't find one. You don't need that device unless you want/need audio through the display port.

while going through my device manager, a yellow triangle sign caught my attention. It is under the "Sound, video and game controllers' labeled as 'Bluetooth Audio Device". When opening the properties, it says that "This device annot start. (Code 10) Object Path Component was not a directory object.
I went to the MSI website (The laptop is a 4 days old MSI GS70-229) and could not find the corresponding driver for this so called "Bluetooth Audio Device". Windows update was unable to find anything, and the "Roll Back Driver" button was disabled. Driver provider is Qualcomm Atheros Communication.
If anyone knows a solution or knows where to get the driver, I would really appreciate if you show me where.

Hi there,
Not a computer expert by any means and would really appreciate your help. I tried to download a 'DVD decoder' that would enable me to watch a DVD that wasn't working on Windows Media the other day. This still didn't work and gave me a far more frustrating problem as well....
The sound has now gone and I have a yellow explanation mark next to my audio device (in device manager) and the device status says 'This device can not start (Code 10)'.
My computer is as follows:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 3
Model: T7870
AMD Athlon(tm) 64X2 Dual
Core Processor 4200+
1.00 GB of RAM
I have tried de-installing and re-installing, got rid of any new downloads, checked for Viruses (using Kapersky), checked the wires and done everything on Windows Troubleshooter a number of times!
I saw a few other threads on this and it all resulted in the poster having to buy a new sound card. Mine is built into my system and this all seems quite fiddly and could cause me to do further damage. Has anyone else got any further advice before I go ahead and do this?
Thanks in advance for any advice given. It is much appreciated!
Sounds like the driver needs updating go to manufacturers website and download the latest drivers to your desktop and unpack the driver to your desktop then go into device manager and right click on the sound card select properties and update driver and follow the hard ware wizard and locate the driver you downloaded.
After many many tries and a couple reformats, I've decided to ask for help instead of trying fixes that have yet to work.
I got this laptop about a week ago from Radio Shack. It came with vista preinstalled and had so much stuff I did not want. I wanted XP cause I have had a fair share of experience with both Vista and XP to come to say Vista is a gigantic resource hog. I wanted to go back to XP because I'm an avid gamer and most gamers use XP.
I downgraded and found all the drivers, and my computer flew. EXCEPT, it had no sound.
I've tried drivers for every laptop known to man and have seen many people fix theirs, but to no avail, none have worked.
I've tried the HD hotfix and it is currently installed.
My Computer Specs: Gateway m-1629
* AMD Turion? 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-60 (2.0GHz, 512KBx2 L2 Cache), up to 1600MHz HTT
* 250GB SATA hard drive
* ATI Radeon® X1270 with up to 256MB of HyperMemory?
* 8x multi-format dual-layer DVDRW with DVD-RAM
* Integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam
* 3GB DDR2 667MHz memory installed, 4GB maximum supported
You need to find out the details of your chipset (Northbridge and Southbridge - the Southbridge is, I believe, the critical one re audio.
Then find through Google a mobo that has that sepecific set of chips and try and find XP drivers for that.
I am having an issue where my DVD/CD RW has a code 19 error in device manager. The drive still works as I used it to boot a Windows CD and run a startup repair to see if that found anything.

Hey hello everyone, I am new member here. I already checked couple threads with this same title, but I didn't really find any solution.
Here's a thing. Yesterday I went to clean my computer for dust, so I opened case and unplugged all wires. Now everything is backup except there is no sound. In device manager I got that yellow/black '!' next to Realtek AC3'97 Audio. I reinstalled drivers couple times already, but nothing. I mean, I was just cleaning dust...
So I came up with that idea that it might be the problem with the front panel pins, which I probably connected in wrong ways. I don't even know in which way those pins should be facing when connecting. So the motherboard is Asus A8N5X (from 2005, yea old), computer runs on Windows XP SP3. I tried many combinations with those pins, but nothing. I get that yellow/black '!' next to device or I get nothing at all (it won't show the device at all).
I tried reading the manual, but the wire names are different on the actual wires than shown in the manual:
And the names on wires are:
GND (black wire)
GND (black wire)
Mic Bias (yellow)
Mic In (green)
Spkout L (red)
Spkout L (red)
Spkout R (white)
Spkout R (white)
As you can see names duplicates. So I tried various combinations, but nothing. Once looked like I fixed it, after loading Windows up, there was sound icon in the tray, but PC suddenly restarted and next time there was no audio again.

First I went to the dell website and I downloaded the recommended audio driver which was 'SoundMax'..

First, the driver from Dell is the only one you should be using.
However, first download the Intel motherboard chipset drivers from Dell and install them, then the Dell sound driver. The chipset drivers define (identify) all the devices on the motherboard and if that is missing or corrupt it could cause the Code 10.
Another problem can be the BIOS. If the sound is disabled in the BIOS that will also cause a Code 10.
The Video will not cause the Code 10. If you have a Video card with HDMI audio, if you connect an HDMI cable most systems will switch the default audio playback device to the HDMI but that's all.
One problem I see, although it may not directly affect audio is you only have 2GB of RAM. That is very minimum RAM and your 64 bit OS will do nothing extra with 2GB of RAM. You could have the 32 bit OS version and it would work exactly the same. 64 bit OS takes advantage of memory over 4GB. Under 4GB it works exactly like a 32bit OS. Consider upgrading the memory. The entire PC will work better.

Hello blackberet,
This device cannot start. (Code 10) basically that there are driver problems. have you looked on HPs website for software for your specific laptop?
After restoring my laptop I now get the following error for "High definition audio device" in device manager: This device cannot start. (Code 10){Operation Failed}The requested operation was unsuccessful. First thing I tried was updating all drivers which did not change anything. I then tried reinstalling the driver provided on the hp support site as well as uninstalling through device manager and installing again from the hp support site. I have also tried fully restoring my laptop and reinstalling Windows but this has not solved it. I am not sure if this is an issue from the driver provided online or if it is my laptop. I have tried running the "find and fix audio playback problems" tool which just suggests updating/reinstalling the driver... Windows audio is already started in Services. I have checked for the upper/lower filter entry in regedit, which weren't there. Can anyone help advising what else I can troubleshoot or if there is another site I can use to try download this driver? Thanks in advance.Read other answers
Hi all,
i did a clean Win 10 Pro install on my iMac 21,5" Mid 2011 and on my Macbook Air (no Bootcamp, no Mac OSX) and on both Computers, i get no Sound from the (Intel?) High Definition Audio Controller "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1C20&SUBSYS_72708086&REV_05" with the Device-Manager saying "Das Ger?t kann nicht gestartet werden. (Code 10)", while another (assuming) HDMI-High Definition Audio Controller "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_AA90&SUBSYS_AA90106B&REV_00" installs without any Problem, but this is unusable for me, as it seems to be for Thunderbold AV-Output only.
The same (Intel) Audio-Interface was working on Win 7 on both iMac and Macbook without any problem, and even now, after Reseting the SMC/EFI of my iMac, i get a loud Apple welcome-sound after switching on the Computer. So the Hardware is still ok. The Problem seems to be a Driver-Interoperability-Issue with Win 10.
What a don't know, if the Intel HD Audio did work after the Upgrade-Install from Win 7 to Win 10 before the Clean Install. I assume it was working but i don't remeber for sure.

PC shows no audio device in system tray, Device Manager shows two devices with yellow explanation marks - Code 52 error. Driver details shows default Microsoft drivers in use. Various driver installs attempted. Machine updated from Vista.
"Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"
Hardware IDs
one will be the mobo sound, the other the HDMI sound output (onboard graphics / HDMI capability)
Have tried the F8 boot option to ignore certificate signing, was no help.
The default basic function Microsoft HD Audio Codec should only be used if nothing else is available. The PC vendor's audio driver is the preferred as non vendor drivers in many cases either do not work or do not work correctly.
The code 52, along with the digital signing, could also be malware on the PC according to what I see doing a google search.
Go to the Device Manager, RIGHT click on the entry for the sound device and then LEFT click "Uninstall". Also check the box to uninstall drivers. Restart the PC and when Windows starts try to install the correct vendor sound driver.

Well I formatted my ssd and installed Win 7 64x Pro on it. Firs thing I did after updating GPU drivers was plug the cable in, and lo and behold, it worked instantly.
I think it has to do with the fact that Microsoft made the drivers for USB ports for win 8.1, as opposed to how Intel made them for win 7. But, this is just a speculation
Hi Guys,
New to this forum, have searched this problem on the internet but found no answer. I have had to recently re-install Windows XP after a nasty virus wrecked my computer. Everything was working great afterwards except the sound. In the Device Manager it says that my sound hardware (C-Media AC97 Audio Device) is there but has a yellow exclaimation mark on it. I have tried updating drivers through windows, uninstalling and re-installing, and deleting and re-installing. But every time I get an error message This device cannot start (Code 10).
I have downloaded Belarc and have my computer spec if it is relevant(what a piece of software btw).
PS. I'm not exactly a computer whizz!!

I'm trying to fix an hp pavillion dv6704nr laptop running windows vista home premium. It has the little red x on the speaker in the lower right hand corner. The owner said it has been there for some months. I have tried downloading the current audio drivers for the computer but every time I try to install the driver, I get an error that says the device couldn't be found.
The first time i restarted the computer, after the driver installation failed, the audio came back and worked fine, until I had to restart the computer. Now I keep getting the same error and nothing i have found so far online has helped.
There are no yellow triangles in the device manager and the device list isn't showing the category for "sound, video and gaming etc." at all.
Please help. I did a search but the other threads didn't solve this problem for me.
Thanks in advance.
I see three different audio driver packages at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwar...ct=3646926#N661.You need to find the right one to install. If you install one and the system doesn't work properly...please uninstall it before trying the next one.Installing the wrong one won't do anything harmful to your system...it just won't do any good to leave it installed.LouisRead other 4 answers
During Windows backup, which wants to backup the 'C' drive and my games drive 'E' (for some reason), I get the following error message after the 'C' backup has completed but not the 'E':
'The backup operation that started at '2015-12-20T06:00:25.459859400Z' has failed with following error code '0x8078012D' (The operation failed due to a device error encountered with either the source or the destination. If the source or destination volume is on a disk, run CHKDSK /R on the source or destination volume, and then retry the operation.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.'
I ran CHKDSK \R and received several errors of the type: 'A disk read error occurred 0000185. The disk does not have enough space to replace bad clusters detected in file xxxxxx of name xxxxxx.'
My 'E' drive is 2TB with 205GB free. I really don't believe that the cluster(s) in error are bigger than 205G, but what do I know?
Anyone have experience with this problem?
Hi All, I've been struggling for about a month. Since I reinstalled Windows 10 Home (1067) (on a new SSD) the 100-15IBY Camera and High Definition Audio Driver has failed with Code 52 unable to verify digital signature. Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52) I've tried everything... permissions on files, bcedit command lines, downloading newer drivers from Realtek, reinstalling windows again with Legacy and then UEFI modes... disabling Secure Boot, reinstalling again with Secure Boot in "Setup - Disabled" mode... The only way to get the audio and camera to operate is to reboot in safe mode and disable the Driver Signature Enforcement - that only works for a single boot. So I know the drivers are correct and the devices work... it's a trust issue with the drivers. The High Definition Audio one is specifically a Microsoft Driver... why wouldn't that be trusted!? Please anyone? It must be a common problem - has anyone solved it? Tony

I have a Toshiba HL DT ST DVDRRW GSA-H30L in an HP D4650Y PC that has suddenly stopped working. The light blinks but the disk will not load. In the device mgr , there is a yellow ! and when investigated further, the info states:" A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32)" I appears that all the drivers are there, but something else is locking it out. Any ideas ? Thanks as always.

I made the stupid mistake of trying to install a HP CD writer 9100 on my W2K system, and now neither it nor my Plextor SCSI CDR will work. I uninstalled the 9100 software and removed it, but I still get the device manager error under my Plextor drive:
This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
This device depends on another device that is not functioning correctly.
I have also tried removing and reinstalling the Plextor but to no avail.
Apparently the old HP software did something bad to my system. Can someone help?
I tried to install support for my Epson 1650 scanner on a Laptop running XP/SP3 but installation has failed.
The 'new hardware found' wizard started; becsuse I had run this scanner on this laptop some months ago, I elected to allow XP to install the driver (usbscan.sys I guess) automatically. The installation failed with a message telling me that the registry information for this device was either incomplete or damaged.
In device manager the device has a yellow warning triangle. When I look at the properties for the device I get a similar message, along with 'Code 19' in the message.
Re-installing the drivers from the Epson product CD does not eliminate the problem. I would really like to avoid having to re-install Windows. Is there some way i can figure out what is wrong in the registry and fix it?
What is the message for code 19?Read other 4 answers
Good Morning
I've recently built a new machine, all was working fine and dandy, until i decided to install a 2nd HD. Now when I boot up the computer my wireless NIC gets this error in the Device Manager. "This device could not start (error code 10)"
At first I searched the internet for possible causes, and all results pointed to a driver issue. I know this can't be the case, if I unplug the HD, no error code. I spoke with an IT person at my company and he told me to check the interrupts on the BIOS.
I did as the tech told me but everything in the BIOS is set to auto. Im curious if anyone has any other troubleshooting steps i can take.
Since I am at work I do not have all the model numbers and such
Here is what i do have though
OS: Windows XP sp1 ( I will upgrade to sp2 tonight)
MoBo: ASUS M3N78 PRO AM2+ RT
Processor: AMD Athlon XP 64
Wireless card: WDA-1320 driver 1.30 latest from DLINKs site.
i also have a 750w power supply so I dont think this is the cause of the problem
If you need any more info I will be glad to post it once Im home tonight
Hi Jzocco, and welcome to TSF.
Strange though it may seem, SP2 may well solve your problems, but post back and let us know if it doesn't, and i'll research your problem further.

First post, so sorry if this is not in the correct thread.
I am trying to connect my sisters computer (XP home edition) to the internet. We have a livebox connected to one computer and we are using a Thompson Speedtouch 121 G to connect my computer to the livebox. Using the same device I am trying to connect the final computer.
I downloaded the latest driver and installed it as instructed but before the driver finishes installing i get an error message - Device failed to start (code 10), or something close to that. I have searched all over for an answer, the computer has hardly been used and was previous connected to the internet but stopped working, so i uninstalled the driver and am trying to reinstall.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Welcome to TSF.
We need a little more info.
Can you give us the make and model of the computer?
Go to the device manager and post any errors.

I am running Windows 2000. I have a Delkin Devices Pocket Reader 9. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers for this product numerous times, even downloading from their website.

You might look this up at google. I found some info not at the microsoft page anymore but under the "cached" section of the search results. I tried to link to it but it kept coming up wrong for some reason, no matter how I tried to go about it.

I just noticed that the DVD drive of my Sony laptop (Win 8.1x64) has a yellow exclamation mark in device manager with the following error message:
"Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)"
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the device with no luck. Any hint? Thanks
UPDATE: I solved the issue. I googled and found that by deleting the UpperFilters and/or LowerFilters value from the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} the issue is fixed. (In my case I had an UpperFilters)
Yes, I can not stress enough how everyone on Windows 8 or even 7 for that matter, should refrain from installing software with drivers that latch onto the default optical driver.
In many cases, it is a bsod waiting to happen.
If software like this is installed, always latest and keep it up to date too.
If anyone knows they have something like this, visit the maker's website and update the software to new.
@OP: Does your screen name on here allude to Autotune or is that only coincidence? I'm a musician.

"What are my fitness goals? I want to feel better about myself, to start taking better care of my body, and if I lost a little weight in that process I wouldn't be mad. (But I mean who would?) So to make those things happen, I need y'all's help! How do you stay motivated? How do you stay on a consistent schedule? How much do your eating habits affect the way you work out?
I'm open to any and all suggestions! Help ya girl get fit and then stay tuned to figure out how exactly I plan on doing it."
That's how one of our Account Executives recently closed a post on her personal blog here. As CEO and an avid fitness junkie, I get questions about staying motivated (whether it's fitness or work) all the time.
So today I'm giving advice to all those who find themselves trying to change their situation. This is for all those who want to start but don't know how to actually get started. For all those sitting in front of a computer all day, snacking on bullshit with no actual plan.
*Disclaimer: I'm not an athlete, coach, nutritionist or a doctor. I'm just a guy who's proven that the following advice works, and is sharing the knowledge.
1. Start Small
Through a lot of trial and error I've learned that when trying to get better — in fitness or at work — it's always best to start with the basics. Start small and build up. For example, we all know fad diets don't work. You do it for awhile, lose some pounds, get sick of the regime and then those pounds suddenly reappear. It's the same with work. You can't build Rome in a day. Don't try to go all in at once. Just like you would cut the bad things out of your diet one by one, try to cut out one bad work habit per week.
Week 1: Stop saying "I'll get to it." Make realistic to-do lists for immediate, ongoing and future tasks.
Week 2: Stop letting your inbox pile up. Take the time to tackle it and answer every email you can.
Week 3: Stop putting things off. Just because you may not want to do something doesn't mean it will go away. Just get it done. Eliminate procrastination.
Week 4: Stop waiting for direction. Speak up. Take more initiative.
2. Reset
This may be more commonly known as having a "cheat day." It's okay to splurge once in a while when you're on a diet. Just like it's okay to give yourself time to reset at work. As CEO, I give my employees the option to work remotely on Wednesdays. I think the time that they have at home helps their energy stay up when they're in the office, it helps keep their creativity fresh by providing a change in scenery, and it gives them a chance to reset.
3. Set Goals
I'm a firm believer in goals. If you don't know where you want to end up, how are you ever going to get there? Pick the destination, set the course, and go! A goal gives you something to celebrate. It gives you a light at the end of the table. Most importantly, it gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning. So whether it's the 5k you signed up for or the big presentation you want to kick ass on, that big day is coming no matter what. You can stay in bed but you're going to fail. Get out of bed and work every day until you reach your goal.
4. Find A Battle Buddy
Why are running clubs so popular? Why do you think successful people always find themselves in the company of other successful people? It's because who you surround yourself with often reflects who you are. In fitness and in work, make sure you surround yourself with people that provide positive vibes, help you stay sharp and push you to be your best. The team you join (or build) is a great indicator of just how well you will perform. Why do you think I've hired so many bad asses at Push Digital?!
5. Flexibility Matters
Stay flexible. While it may seem obvious that flexibility is important in fitness, it's equally as important within a business. As a digital marketing firm, everyone at Push Digital has to be able to change directions at the drop of a hat. Whether that means in the creative process, dealing with constant changes to digital advertising platforms or sometimes working after hours to meet the needs of your client — flexibility and adaptability are key.
My advice may not turn you into a beast in the gym or in the office, but it will get you started. It will help you get healthier, advance at work and maybe even make more money.
It's important to point out one very important fact: the brain and the body are connected, just in case you didn't realize that yet. The mind is sluggish when the body is sluggish. The mind is unhealthy when the body is unhealthy. Remember to start small, take time to reset, set goals, find your battle team and stay flexible. You'll be more clear minded, you'll be more productive, you'll be more creative. In short, you'll be a better worker.

Within the last 12 months, I have made three trips to Africa. The first was to the hills of Uganda to help the Singing Gorilla Charity install water tanks and health clinics in a rural area. Not a paved road or an electric outlet to be seen for miles. It was maybe the most interesting vacation of my life. I came back to Chicago and looked around at everything that I had and thought about what an unnecessarily complex and spoiled life I have. The things I took for granted (like being able to have a drink of water when I was thirsty, or being able to choose what I ate every day) become more than an afterthought … for a while.
The second trip was to three areas of Kenya for a photographic safari, staying in nice lodges with great food. I learned how to use a camera properly! It was one of the best trips I have ever taken. Thirsty for more, the third trip was another safari to Kenya with my friend Jim, and we stayed in "luxury tents" on the bank of the Mara River with hippos making sounds night and day, drowning out the sound of hyenas, leopards, and lions hunting.
Each day, for many weeks after the trips, what I saw in Africa stayed on my mind. I remember that hyena hunting the wildebeest, that leopard carrying the carcass back to eat with her mom, those warthogs scampering away at any sound or movement, and that giraffe in a stare down with me until I'm the one that chose to leave. I remember the kids in the school reusing writing paper and sharpening inch-long pencils with knives. I remember them performing a concert with hand-made instruments. I remember being completely isolated from the news in the USA, and not missing it one bit (I now never talk about politics with anyone, as I feel that it's a total waste of everyone's time.)
Why does Africa stand out to me? It's not for lack of places for me to compare it to, as I think I am fairly well traveled, and I do not get this feeling after returning from Bali or Thailand or anywhere else. Each trip to Africa in the last year was very different from the others, but I came away from each with a special feeling …. a feeling of witnessing something so different from what I experience in my "normal life". Some things have a lasting effect. After going to Uganda, I try to order only the food I will eat so that won't go to waste.
Africa rarely does things on a small scale, it certainly has plenty of room so why should it? It feels like nowhere else in the world. A visit to Africa will leave you wide-eyed, and you will likely find a way to go back for more. If you've been there, you know what I mean.
As my friend Jim was preparing for his first trip to Africa, someone asked where he was headed. When he said "Safari in Africa … I have high expectations", the answer came "Well whatever your expectations are, they will be far exceeded. There is Africa … and there is everywhere else!" If you go to Africa, you will understand what he means. You will surely come back from Africa feeling like you witnessed something special. What will YOU witness? Until you go, you'll never know ….
I've heard people say "I should try to go to Africa …" For sure, there is always an excuse not to go. But as the wise Yoda said: "Do. Or do not. There is no try."
I'll end by sharing a poem written by Matthew Sterne http://blog.rhinoafrica.com … it says it well.
This is Africa – A Poem (by Matthew Sterne)
Dawn in Africa and another set of tracks
Morning sun glinting off the hippos' backs
Wild dogs running and hunting in packs
The thrill of the chase and the kill the climax
This is Africa, the cry of a fish eagle
The pomp of a warthog, tail up and regal
And down below the mighty dung beetle
Of the African wilderness, there can be no equal
This vast dusty continent is the place of dreams
Of morning mists and lone sunbeams
The quiet savanna more alive than it seems
And crocodile-laden rivers that began as mountain streams
There's another leopard print fresh in the sand
And my heart beats louder than a brass band
I know this is Eden, the ultimate wonderland
Home to the world's grandest wetland
Now a franklin runs scared in front of the vehicle
And a cheetah speeds past always unreachable
The roar of a lion to remind us he's unbeatable
It's as old as time yet still unbelievable
There's another sign of life, an elephant scratching post
Some of these animals are as quiet as a ghost
Yet they're all over these parts from coast to coast
And to the world's greatest spectacle Africa plays the host
The warning call of an impala, the scent of a lion
They normally come at night under the belt of Orion
There's the baobab and acacia and a small dandelion
My thoughts will never leave Africa though they've been trying
Just one more sunset is what I desire
Afternoons in the bush, nights by the fire
A drink in the hand and stories that inspire
It's a land of passion, the great amplifier
You feel so alive, the opposite of numb
To the magic of Africa, I'll always succumb
Its people and places have me under its thumb
And my heart will always beat to an African drum
– Sign on a Wild Eye safari vehicle

text: Two bright (Blueish colored), stationary, star like objects that faded over 30 secondsOccurred about 50 minutes after sunset. Looking towards the east two bright star looking objects were visible to the right of the moon. Objects were at least as bright as ISS. ISS only had one pass during the 26th that passed earlier in the evening from the west to south. Lights had a blueish tint to them.Initially thought it was Jupiter/Venus, since they are close together right now but realized they are only visible early morning here. Next thought was aircraft landing lights (LED type since they were blueish) but lights did not move and faded slowly not extinguished like aircraft landing lights and no strobes visible after lights disappeared. Lights were close together diagonal from each other (As seen in red circle of graphic) Lights were motionless but faded over about 30 seconds from bright to faint to gone but without any movement in relation to the moon which seems to discount any bright satellites. 2nd image shows no satellites listed in that area close to the moon.Called local ATC tower at CYMX had one aircraft in that direction at low altitude, but nothing that should be in that area of the sky.
