Battery power lasts only 10 minutes after the laptop is disconnected from the load

I rarely or even close to never use my computer unplugged, however the rare occasion that I do I only get about 10 minutes of use until I get a low battery warning. Surely my battery must be able to provide more power than that.

Original title: battery

Hello

It should be 3 to 6 hours, depending on usage and the number of cells.

  • Key 3 C often does not work for several minutes after the start, the other keys work fine.

    I got am HP Pavilion 17-e049wm Notebook PC product #E0J75UAR for about 4 weeks now.  I bought it refurbished.  A week ago I started having this problem.  3, e, d and c keys do not work when I first start the computer all of the other keys work.  Nothing happens when they are pressed.   Sometimes I will restart the computer and they work again, other times they won't, but often will start working if I left the computer set for about five minutes after the start.

    The computer is spotlessly clean.  I've only used a dozen times or more.  Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

    Sounds like software for me, but what?

    I am running Windows 8.1 and no programs are running at startup, with the exception of a program start button, but the problem began weeks after installing that.

    Any ideas?

    FWIW, I called hp. They believed excluded material and had me do a full system restore. Problem persists... The things you own end up owning you they say... I guess it's doubly true if you own a hp laptop. Full day turned... One day closer to death. Thanks Obama.

  • Satellite Pro P300 restarts a few minutes after the stop

    Hello

    I'm unable to download the update of the BIOS for a Toshiba Satellite Pro P300 PSPCDE (WIN 3.00), the reason being that I wonder a user name and password to download the file!

    The laptop has this annoying problem to revive a few minutes after the laptop has stopped, and that's why I want to update the BIOS to see if it suits him. Laptop is running XP Pro (downgraded from Vista).

    Ideas how I can get the update of the BIOS and will it solve the strange rebooting problem?

    Paul

    Where are you trying to download the BIOS?
    I always download my updates on the official website of Toshiba and if it doesn't work maybe you should wait a day.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    To be honest, I doubt that the BIOS update will solve this problem. I often read about this problem and you can solve if you disable the wake on LAN function in the BIOS and Windows (properties of the wireless network card).

    HP Deskjet 970Cse only prints red after the new color cartridge installed. I use black HP 45 and HP 78 color. Both are new. I know the printer is an older model, but it works well a month ago.  Any help would be appreciated.

  • XPS 13 (9343) crashes minutes after the start of

    A week ago, my Dell XPS 13 running Windows 8.1 suddenly stopped working about 1-3 minutes after the start, then rebooted - just to keep crashing and restarting after a few minutes. Unable to understand what caused the problem, I did a clean install of Windows 10; that is, fitness and installing W10 bootable USB drive.

    After installing a few Dell drivers (wifi, video, sound), the problem returns. Same question; After connection, Windows seems to start as usual, then crashes after 1 to 3 minutes.

    The system is a Dell XPS 13 (9343), i7-5500, 512 GB SSD, QHD touchscreen.

    TIA for any help.

    The memory on this model is welded in - it cannot be deleted.

  • Vista black screen after the loading bar

    I have the problem that I am assuming that almost all users of Windows Vista have probably experiences - the black screen with the white cursor lonely after the loading bar 'Microsoft Corporation'. Here are the steps that I tried to solve the problem, but have not yet worked:

    • With the help of "last known good configuration" brings back me to the screen and the white slider
    • Go into safe mode which brings back me to the screen and the cursor
    • Activate the video mode low resolution which brings back me to the black screen and a cursor
    • Using Ctrl + SHIFT + ESC to appear during the black screen Task Manager
    • CTRL + Alt + Delete does not work on the black screen
    • I do not have access to the installation CD, as it was preinstalled on the computer

    Yes, as usual, what happened after a windows update - I really should stop waiting for something good to these updates.

    I'm under the original version of Vista Home Premium without service pack - these caused a similar problem, but at least I was able to return the system restore.

    Thank you in advance, I know how useful these forums can be.

    Yes, a new installation of Windows 7 was the way for me. Lucky he composed a back all my documents, however. Thanks for the help all. Unfortunately I have no where near more closely to solve the problem, then when I started.

  • Satellite Pro L20: Battery lasts only 30 minutes.

    This problem has persisted throughout the four months, I've owned and used this notebook: when the battery has been recharged and I try to work on battery power only, the battery reading usually indicates 82% min 27' and, as you would expect, runs right now.

    I've seen similar problems reported on this forum, but none with such a capacity of battery runs.

    In case this isn't a bad battery, is it possible that I use a lot of battery power without realizing?

    Hello

    As far as I know that the Toshiba power saver is not installed on the Sat Pro L20.
    The power of Microsoft options windows is responsible for the State of battery power.
    However, have you tried to update the BIOS on this laptop? If this isn't the case, in order to check it out.
    Visit the Toshiba page and check that you have installed the version of BIOS with BIOS available on the site.

    But it is also possible that the battery has a malfunction because it s unusual that the laptop will run only 27 minutes on battery.

  • Satellite Pro P300 turns on automatically after 3-4 minutes after the stop

    We have a problem with the new laptop Pro P300 series (P5PC5E). It's not OFF after his stop. Laptop turns on automatically after 3-4 minutes after his stop.
    This occurs when LAN (RJ-45) is connected to the laptop.

    -We have disabled "Wake on LAN" from BIOS and tried to disable some other Wake on the options, but nothing made.
    -In addition, we tried to use the laptop on the other room in another cable RJ45. Is not helped either.
    -Laptop is new and there has been nothing, except installed Vista for installation at the factory at the end and install F-Secure.
    -After that, F-Secure has also removed with the uninstall tool.

    Now... what someone has idea how to solve this problem or shoud simply return laptop to Toshiba for repair?

    Don t think you need to call the ASP for the repair.

    Just a question; did you check if the laptop wakes up automatically if the LAN cable is NOT connected?
    Please check this box.

    If the laptop won't wakeup automatically after that the LAN cable has been disconnected, then everything is ok with your laptop and I don't suppose some settings need to be changed.

    In the BIOS please disable:
    Wake on keyboard
    Wake-up on LAN
    -Battery clock criticism

    You should also go to Device Manager-> network controllers-> Lan card-> properties-> Advanced tab.

    There, you might disable wake-up settings to.

  • Satellite P100 freezes a few minutes after the beginning

    Hi all!

    Im having a little problem with my satellite. When I start my computer its TI all ok, but after 5-6 minutes, always do the same thing. The screen freezes and it is impossible to do antyhing. My computer is only 2 years old. My guess is that the cpu is overheating, but I'm not sure. Maybe problems with the fans or just for more dust.

    -Does anyone know if it could be another hardware problem that makes the computer freezes? Also when I try to just start all over again it freezes in 1-2 mnutes.

    Hello

    It could be overheating but maybe memory dysfunctions?
    After 2 years of work from the laptop cooling modules might not turn with maximum performance and so the CPU cannot be cooled correctly
    so you could check if the fan cleaning grids will help a little to avoid freezing.

    Additional test memory. There are several tools to test memory like MemTest or Memtest 86. These tools are free!

  • Windows 7 x 64"looking for preconfigured folders' 10-20 minutes after the base peripheral USB pluging

    As in the question.

    Windows 7 x 64 'preconfigured search folders' for 10-20 minutes after pluging base peripheral USB - flash stick, mouse, keyboard.
    The installation of the drivers is displayed.
    The small circles looking for minutes and minutes.
    Then the message becomes - installation of the unit
    It lasts still minutes (5 to 10 or more)
    At the end some time, that the device is installed sometimes it fails.
    If I unplug the unit and plug it into another USB port - all again.
    During the whole process, the computer becomes very slow and unusable.
    The Task Manager shows CPU idle but there is no update on the user interface, new programs may not start.
    When the end of the installation then it catches up and everything opens and update with a normal speed.

    I have the same problem as Windows 7 Ultimate SP1.

    If a driver online is available for a USB device, it installs ok.

    If the system is based on the preconfigured drivers folder it will not install.

    I've removed all USB devices (including root hubs), reset and rebuilt the cache driver and nothing works.

    Rebuilding my PC will take ages! There must be a faster solution!

    I found the solution!

    You need to repair or rebuild Windows DriverStore. (which would make a reinstallation)

    You need access to a working Windows machine to solve this problem, but your PC will fix the driverstore himself.

    To do this:

    1) go to "C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository" from a working PC that is copied to a USB drive or a network share.

    (2) on your PC goto Device Manager and find the device that settles (look for the yellow triangle).

    (3) right click and select "Update Driver Software".

    (4) select "Browse my computer for driver software".

    5) navigate to the location of your good copy of the DriverStore

    (6) "Include subfolders" check and click Next

    Windows will now search the driver good store and will be re - install the pre-configured drivers.

    Ignore any warnings about the driver being unsigned and let your PC to install them.

    Work pilots will be given on your pc, the driver cache will rebuild and your device will start working.

    Hooray!

    If you move the device to another USB port it will now install automatically, as it should.
