Does it switch off once you're in the Bios? if so then looks screwed again. 

If not.. check you can see your hard drive information in it and check that it's still set as your first boot device and make sure you've got no USB devices/Headphones plugged in (..yes I've seen headphones stop boot before)

Doesn't switch off in bios, boot order is usb then hdd, I assume that's so it would boot from a boot disk usb before hdd if you were trying to reinstall os etc? I didn't change any boot order so as far as I know that's the factory default boot order..

Only usb plugged in is the wireless mouse dongle which has always been plugged in...

Dezz I think you need to research which porn sites you visit dude...

I have had like 3 laptops in the last decade 1 x free macbook and 2 x < $500 PC's ... all 3 only died due to physical damage (1 x stepped on, 2 x kids)

Lol, the mrs has had corrupt video files and corrupt excel spreadsheets in the last 3 months.. I'm like wtf do you even do to cause this?

Turn off, unplug power cord, Pull out battery. Leave for 5 minutes. Plug battery back in and try turning it on.

Do this, if error still occurs change boot device #1 to your hard disk

Was hoping to avoid pulling the mother f**ker apart for the 10th time after paying these mother f**kers to fix it.. But I guess I'll have to try that

I'll PM you some info 

Thx.

 

Also badluck Dezz.

 

My HP spectre i bought this year has been a dream so far.

Generally when i had any hardware issues they came onsite and fixed it on the spot

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
