10 to 20 pushes the power button on the top of PC to start on m9400f

My m9400f was wonderful beyond 3-4 months. If the PC is disconnected from the wall even momentarily, when plugged in again, I can sometimes press the power switch 10 to 20 times before the computer starts. Sometimes it does not start at all. I leave it for a day or two and then try again, pressing 10 to 20 times and all of a sudden, the PC will begin to turn. There is no flicker of the screen nor any indication that the power supply has a problem. Thank you. -Paul

If you want, I will send you the email of a HP specialist.
May be able to solve your problem, apparently, that no normal person can solve your problem.

  • Help - HP Pavilion a6030.uk desktop computer. Have to press the power button several times to start?

    Hello

    I have a HP desktop computer. The model is HP Pavilion a6030.uk, Opertating system: windows vista.

    My computer has had no problems at all until yesterday for some reason, I had to push the switch several times to start until he finally turned and did normal starts. As I would press the power as normal to start button, but all of a sudden, it turns off after about 2 seconds and so I would tap on the switch several times and each time it will not start and turn off, then the power button could be pressed again until it would finally turn on and start and run as normal and seems to work correctly. And it was the same thing today, I pressed the power button mutiple times (for example 6 times) until she finally started as usual.

    Savvy/computer im not very well informed or wise in this area, please someone will help me and give me some advice/help to fix/resolve this problem.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and any help would be appreciated for this problem.

    Thank you.

    Vonbon90, welcome to the forum.

    When I see these symptoms on an old computer, I think it may be a power supply (PSU) failure/ing.  Here's a guide that will help your troubleshooting it.

    In addition, you could test the memory.  This can be done by removing all modules of memory and replacing them one at the time and start.

  • I can't start with Satellite P10 by pressing the power button more

    I can't start my Satellite P10 by pressing the power button more.
    Sometimes, very rarely its starts when I hold the power button for a while say 10 seconds.

    I tested the power supply and a battery to my friends P10 (of the same type) and both work very well.

    So it must be a problem with the key.
    No idea what to do?

    Thanks for any help

    The best.

    Tobias

    If it s a button or a power supply electronic problem, then you can't do anything.
    In this case assistance by the technicians of laptop would be necessary.

    But the next time that you should try this option if the laptop turns on not;
    Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter from the laptop for about 30 min.

    After this short period of time to reconnect the two parts and check if the laptop could start.

    Good luck

  • Horizontal scrolling at the top title

    Hello

    Is it possible to create a title that of at the top of the screen and scrolls along the right to the left.

    Thank you

    William

    Hi, will,

    Yes, you can do it, but it takes a little tinkering.   The title says "Ticker" creates a right to left scrolling on the bottom.  You can use it to create a scroll on the top.   To do this, create a project together just to work on the title.  Click the background button and drag a black background in the timeline of the project title.  Then add the Ticker title, with the desired text.  Now share the draft title on your desktop as a file.   You now have a clip of the song.  Drag this item in your original project in which you intend to use it.  Place it above the time line on the clip you want to use in.  Select the clip of the song and then click the icon in the toolbar at the top of your screen that looks like to the overlap of the squares.  In the selection box that appears, select the image in the image.  Set your title at the top of the preview screen element so that the part of scroll appears at the top of your clip.  You can push the top even if the black part goes out of the screen.  Then click on the Reset button and you have a right to left scrolling at the top of your screen.

    It's a little clumsy, I know.  And you may have to play with it a bit to get it to appear as you want.

    I hope this helps.

    What do you suggest I should do?

    How much will it cost in India?  I have no idea. I live in Europe.

    I suggest to ask a repair shop of PC or laptop.

    If the cost of repair is more than 50% of the current value of the laptop, you would be better sourcing of a notebook replacement.

    towelsrawesome,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing I would say is to remove all external devices from your PC (except the mouse and keyboard) and then restart.  If she does not always correctly, then try to start safe mode.  Here is a link that explains the Safe Mode and how to start to it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Post back with the results of these measures.  Also, let us know if something has changed recently on your system (hardware or software) and give us some details about your system.  Let us know the make\model of pc and which package XP version\service you use.

  • Satellite M110 - Orange light flashes when I push the power button

    just before I managed based on the knock off my bed, on a glance the plug that goes into the computer look slightly bent and now when I try to turn it on, it does not work. even when it is plugged.

    An orange light is always flashing down the bottem when I press the button.

    So is this a problem computer or a power supply problem?

    Hi becks88,

    Sounds like a serious problem of material... You can start Notepad without AC/DC adapter or is the battery charging adapter?

    Try to delete also the adapter AC and the battery for an hour at least. Then reconnect the two and try to start the laptop.

    In the worst case you need professional help a :(authorized service provider

  • Satellite 1005: Push the power button, will turn off the AC power.

    Laptop: Toshiba Satellite 1005

    Problem: When I press the power button and let go, the laptop immediately loses all power.

    I use the power cord plugged into the laptop, the power supply light is green, but when I press the power button and let go, as soon as the power light goes black(turns off), nothing happens.

    Howerver, if I PRESS the power button without letting go, power LED lights, but the laptop won't boot at all, no Startup logo, no sound no matter what.

    It's the second time this has happened, the first time, I let stand overnight and the next day she booted up fine.

    Currently, the laptop is cold, it did not work, but always the same thing as described above.

    There are no changes made to the laptop.

    Any ideas?

    It seems that the contact, the power button is faulty. Better to elevate the laptop to a Toshiba service station for a check.

    I n ' t´t think that it is a software failure.

    Good bye

  • My hard drive begins to randomly run very fast, then everything is locked, and I have to push the power button to shutdown and restart the CPU

    I use a desk top of HP 5 year, running Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade from Vista.

    Im not 100% sure what you mean but I think you mean the fans come on fast?

    If it is then you probably have a dust build up inside your PC or something that hampers the movement of air.
    HP desktop computers are usually fairly easy to check inside, usually a handful or a pliers to remove the top cover or side (there may be one or two screws on the back), once you have it you can see the fans and just check if there is dust covering the front Grill , rear grille and the heatsink. You can use a small accessory vacuum cleaner to do this, just be careful not no knock all components.
    If you don't want you may damage whatever it is then if you have a friend or relative who knows a little bit of PC you could ask them to check it out.
    Usually, dust accumulates in areas where are fans which reduces the airflow in your PC and can make the fans rotation and your pc run slow / lock up.

    You have to press the button to power ON the laptop.

  • TouchSmart 610: TouchSmart 610 lights. I have a set of 5 beeps with a yellow light above the power button.

    I keep my office earlier this morning with the entry of the normal shutdown process. When I went to reactivate tonight all I get is a set of 5 beep with a yellow light flashing above the power switch. Repeat this five times then beeps stop and only yellow continuous flashing. I can hear and feel the hard drive running. I tried to unplug the power supply and then plugging, but the same thing happens. If I push and hold the power button on, it sounds like the hard drive stops and restarts. The normal blue light comes on for a few seconds then turns off and is replaced by the yellow flashing light. All you have no idea as to what may be the issue?

    Hello:

    Normally 5 beeps means there is a problem with the memory.

    I suggest that you remove and reinstall the memory modules and blow up if this doesn't fix the problem, if your PC has two memory modules, an and see if the beep disappears.

    If this is the case, remove this module and specify the first condition in you removed and if the beep begins once again find the defective memory chip.

    If it is not, remove the module and put the other in you deleted and if the ringing stops, you have found the faulty memory chip.

    Then replace the faulty memory module by one with the same specifications.

    If the ringing continues despite trying these steps, and then either the two chips of memory are bad (unlikely), or the motherboard has a problem.
