I’ve received a dozen different Blue Screen errors while attempting to install windows 7?
Originally I had windows 7 32-bit but I installed more ram so using format d: I wiped my drive and attempted to install windows 7 64-bit. At random intervals I’ve received: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, STOP: c000021a {fatal system error}, REFERENCE_BY_POINTER, SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, TDI.SYS (STOP: 0×000000BE), STOP: 0×0000001E, CACHE_MANAGER (STOP: 0×00000034), and STOP:000000F4. All of these messages occur when I try to boot from a windows disk. I’m sure if I tried it again I’d get a completely different message. This is a brand new custom built machine I was using windows 7 32-bit for weeks and it ran perfectly. Now I can’t install 7 (32 or 64) I’ve even tried windows xp sp 3 which led to the fatal system error. I’ve removed my tv tuner, wireless card, one stick of ram, and unhooked my blueray player. Any suggestions?
You could try resetting your BIOS to defaults. My new build installed Vista perfectly with the BIOS tweaked, but kept blue screening (I forget the number, but 21a rings a bell.) when I was attempting to install Windows 7. I’ve not worked out what caused it, but I suspect something to do with the power saving settings.
Other causes may be faulty RAM, a faulty RAM socket, faulty HDD, possibly even the graphics card. Do you have access to a graphics card / blank HDD from another system to test these? Try putting the one stick of ram in a different socket.
is it going to be airing on Digital Terrestrial TV at all, can I download it or is it up for streaming online?
I really want to watch the show (huge britney fan) and it would be great if you guys could help
The current tower is the third structure to have occupied the site. The original 135 metres (443 ft) lattice tower was erected in 1956 to provide Independent Television broadcasts to the Yorkshire area. It was replaced in 1964 by a taller 385.5 metres (1,265 ft) guyed mast (identical to the structure still standing at Belmont in Lincolnshire).
Mast collapse
Emley Moor has been used as a transmission site since the earliest days of TV transmission. The first permanent transmitter to be built there was an ITV transmitter, covering much of the North. It used a 135 metre lattice tower, which provided only limited coverage. The performance of the site was improved in 1966, in anticipation of colour PAL transmissions, when a 385 metre guy-supported tubular mast was erected, constructed from curved steel segments to form a 2.75 metres (9 ft) diameter tube, 275 metres (902 ft) long. This was surmounted by a lattice section 107 metres tall and a capping cylinder, bringing the total height to 386 metres (1,266 ft). At the time of its construction, it was one of the tallest standing structures in the world. It was designed by BICC and manufactured by EMI.
The cylindrical steel mast regularly became coated in ice during the winter months, and ice also formed in large icicles on the guy wires, placing them under considerably greater strain. The guy wires passed over several small roads, and thawing ice caused a falling icicle hazard. For this reason, red warning lights were placed on the tower for use in times of falling ice, with notices posted on the roads near the guy wire crossings.
On 19 March 1969, a combination of strong winds and the weight of ice that had formed around the top of the mast and on the guy wires brought the structure down. The Duty Engineer wrote the following in the station’s log book, demonstrating that this failure of the structure was completely unexpected:
Day: Lee, Caffell, Vander Byl
Ice hazard – Packed ice beginning to fall from mast & stays. Roads close to station temporarily closed by Councils. Please notify councils when roads are safe (!)
Pye monitor – no frame lock – V10 replaced (low ins). Monitor overheating due to fan choked up with dust- cleaned out, motor lubricated and fan blades reset.
Evening :- Glendenning, Bottom, Redgrove
1,265 ft (386 m) Mast :- Fell down across Jagger Lane (corner of Common Lane) at 17:01:45. Police, I.T.A. HQ, R.O., etc., all notified.
Mast Power Isolator :- Fuses removed & isolator locked in the “OFF” position. All isolators in basement feeding mast stump also switched off. Dehydrators & TXs switched off.
Wreckage of the Emley Moor Mast, which crashed in March 1969, strewn across fields.
The collapse left sections of twisted mast strewn across the surroundings of the transmitter site and across several small local roads. Although one of the falling stay cables cut through a local church and wreckage was scattered all over the transmitter site, nobody was hurt in the collapse. The noise was reportedly heard for several miles. The collapse completely disabled the BBC2 UHF transmitter and the ITV VHF transmitter, leaving several million people without service. BBC1 VHF Television transmissions continued from the nearby Holme Moss transmitter. The ITA owned a collapsible emergency mast, 61 metres tall, and it was quickly moved to Emley from the ITA transmitter at Lichfield so that some service could be restored. ITV signals were restored to 2.5 million viewers within only four days. The BBC provided a mobile mast on an outside broadcast van, which was used to restore a restricted BBC2 colour service within just two days. The ITA bought a larger temporary mast from a Swedish company. A crew of Polish riggers, with Jozef Miciak (1925 – 2008) in charge, were hired and a 204 metre mast was erected in just under 28 days at a cost of 100,000. However, this mast was only capable of holding one set of antennas, so many viewers in outlying areas still could not receive colour programmes. The taller mast was brought into service on April 16. Some weeks later, the BBC erected a 91 metre mast, improving coverage.
The accumulation of ice was generally believed to have caused the collapse, but a committee of inquiry attributed it to a form of oscillation which occurred at a low but steady wind speed. Modifications were then made to similar masts at Belmont and Winter Hill, including the hanging of 150 tons of steel chains within each structure. None of the modified masts has collapsed.
After a series of temporary masts, erection of the current concrete-built tower began in 1969 with UHF (625-line colour) transmissions commencing on 21 January 1971 with the older VHF (405-line black & white) system coming into operation on 21 April 1971. Local residents did not wish to see another mast on Emley Moor, and so a departure from normal designs was called for. The new structure consists of a curved pillar, 275 metres tall, constructed of reinforced concrete, topped by a 55 metre steel lattice mast which carries the antennas.
Emley Moor Tower viewed from Bretton Country Park, at a distance of approximately four miles.
A section of the collapsed tower was converted for use as a racing control tower at nearby Huddersfield Sailing Club.
The structure
The structure is a tapered, reinforced concrete tower. It is the tallest freestanding structure in the United Kingdom at a height of 330.4 metres (1,084 ft). Reaching the Tower Room at the top of the concrete part of the tower at 275 m (900 ft) involves a seven-minute journey by lift. The antenna structure above this is a further 56 m (184 ft). Its foundations penetrate 6.1 m (20 ft) into the ground and the whole structure, including foundations, weighs 11,200 tonnes. It was designed by Ove Arup and Partners. When it was built, it was the third-tallest freestanding structure in Europe, after the Ostankino Tower at 540 metres (1,772 ft) and the Fernsehturm Berlin (current height 368 metres (1,207 ft)).
The top of the tower is 594 m (1949 ft) above sea level due to the site’s elevated position on the Eastern edge of the Pennines.
In 2002, the UK Government declared Emley Tower a Grade II Listed Building of ’significant architectural or historic interest’.
Ownership
It is owned by Arqiva, previously the Independent Broadcasting Authority Engineering privatised as NTL Broadcast.
Broadcast details
The Emley Moor tower broadcasts BBC One, BBC Two, ITV1 Yorkshire, Channel 4, Five, six digital television multiplexes, three digital radio ensembles and two independent local radio stations (Galaxy 105 & Real Radio) over an area of approximately 10,000 km. It is the main station for some 57 relays and repeaters throughout Yorkshire and the surrounding counties. In July 2007 it was confirmed by Ofcom that Emley Moor would be remaining a B group transmitter after DSO (Digital Switchover). DSO is due to take place in September 2011.
This area has always been important for RF (radio frequency) transmission and from the foot of Emley’s structure both Holme Moss and the Moorside Edge Transmitter are visible. Both of the latter are within ten miles (16 km) radius and are SW and WNW respectively.
Repairs and alterations
Over the years, the structure has been updated with various dishes and aerials. This reflects the changing nature of communications and technology. The most visible changes are on the outside of the tower. At both the top and bottom of the tower, further supporting structures have been attached to accommodate the dishes and aerials.
The BBC reported in July 2006 that for up to two weeks, the tower was liable to broadcast analogue and digital signals at a lower power than usual, or to be shut down between 0900 and 1500 BST on weekdays in late July until the 4 August. This was to allow aircraft warning lights to be fitted to the tower and repairs to be carried out. The repair work was estimated to affect around five million homes; however, a spokesperson for National Grid Wireless announced that the work had been scheduled around major events.
Viewing the tower
The tower is not open to the general public. However, there is an observation area just off the main road that runs past it.
In popular culture
Poet Simon Armitage wrote a poem about Emley Moor to accompany a short programme about the tower on BBC2 in the 1990s.
