  • Windows 8 do not sleep when I close the lid

    I just got the Elitebook 850 G1 and I put all the parameters of sleep when I close the lid and wake up when I open it. I checked the two settings in windows and in the BIOS and it's all good, but when I do actually, he does not wake up but restarts the computer instead. So when I was away typing on Word, fortunately I constantly save it but it's not back to where I left off. I thought it was one of the graphic drivers first, because he has dual graphics, intel and ati. He had a few problems with the ATI card, but I think that I fixed it. I am running windows 8.1 Pro.

    What can I do else?

    Edit:

    I tried changing the settings to hibernate instead, and what he gave me was a BSOD.  Video_dxgkrnl_fatal_error. I remember that what made the first time I tried to do it before when he was on the way 'sleep'. any suggestions?

    is not serious, I fixed it. It turns out that the new graphics driver intel was the culprit. I had to revert to a previous version. works perfectly now

  • Battery Tecra M11-130 with not power and the fan runs constantly

    We are having a problem with the battery on one of our laptops. When left for an hour or two the laptop turns off because the battery is dead. We have mounted a battery new but still only get about 1.5 hours.
    In addition, the fan runs continuously. I looked at the PC Healthcheck software which shows as follows:
    * Power *.
    Other costs 14%
    40% of energy consumption system
    Good battery
    * Temperature and fan *.
    CPU temperature 67%
    System internal temperature 56%
    88% fan speed

    I would like suggestions.

    > We have mounted a battery new but still only get about 1.5 hours.

    1.5 hours is a common value, you should consider that dough working time depends on its portable use.

    Battery needed to dump a lot faster if the CPU would be stressed out a lot in your case, that something could run in the background, lose power CPU performance and the dough.

    In addition, you said that the fan runs constantly this could discharge the battery too.
    Therefore, it would be interesting to know what process emphasizes the central unit.

    Start the Task Manager and check the processes tab. In the CPU column, you can find the process that emphasizes the central unit.

    In addition, to change the settings for the CPU performance and cooling of the activities in the options of Win 7 powers that would help to increase the performance of the battery.

  • Pavilion 500-242ea: x 5 component the Fans Running constantly - seems more noisy for me - is that true?

    Hello

    Have had a unit of 500-242ea Office Pavilion, a little more than 12 months now, but I remember it is much quieter when I bought it

    Currently, all 5 fans operate constantly, which seems to be at full speed.  Is this good?  I'm not crazy, I know fans need to run components cool but I didn't know that all 5 had to operate at this speed!

    Notes: I'm not a gamer and do not exploit several programs at the same time, all that often, so do not insist on CPU etc.  The unit is clean / dust-free, inside and outside, and there is no problem of heat sink, I noticed

    Graphics card was recently replaced (due to grinding noise on start up) under warranty but replacement is not stronger than the previous unit

    Can anyone suggest, if it is possible to adjust, reset or control the fans via BIOS or if there is another way to reduce this noise nuisance?

    Thanks for the advice offered

    Hello

    Being a "student of honour here, I don't know how to tag my question as"Resolved."

    In any case, for someone who is having a noisy fan problem, you can give what I've done, a go

    1 / restart PC Desktop, tapping f10 key as it works to begin with, it penetrates into the BIOS menu

    2 / take a look at all the options related to food.  I took a look at the "Thermal" CPU, but please note that I have not made no changes to anything!  I have not noticed, any menu for changing fan speeds

    3 / choose option "exit without saving the changes.

  • I'm afraid that my computer get too hot

    My computer feels hot to the touch near the fan, y at - it no way to fure the fan works properly, or a way to make it work better?

    Assuming that the fan is running, it is likely that there are a lot of dust in the case. Buy a can of compressed air, open the case and take it outside where you have to blow off the dust with the can of air compressed.

    Do * not * use a vacuum cleaner, which can fry the motherboard with a discharge of static electricity.

  • Pavilion g6t locked up, while you sleep, when you close the lid, or try to power off

    My Pavilion g6t crashes when the screen turns off, or computer goes to sleep, also is not out with stop-power function.  Power light stays on, only is to restart the computer to completely turn off with power button / stop, and then re login.   This happened just after a HP recommended Refresh, any ideas?

    I went back to the HP driver downloads support and ran an another Bios Update.

    Alto, the computer began to work properly, the screen will be lite to the top of the keyboard.

    Once asleep, wakes you up by button tapping power and computer stops correctly.

  • Portege S100 - fan runs constantly

    Hello

    I have been using my portege s100 for a year now and I must say that I'm not really happy.

    The fan runs constantly, even after the update of the BIOS. Does not stop a second, everything I put in power management. It's very disappointing, because when I watch a DVD, or when I work nights, I would like to quiet little.

    I checked the forums on the web, and Toshiba without finding any solution. Is anyone aware of any way to stop the standing fan (other then remove the fan...)?

    Thanks in advance,
    Andres

    Hello Andres

    As you know, the cooling equipment is common problem on laptop computers and the market there is not many laptops that work absolutely silent. I put t even think such laptop no exist at all. Performance of your hardware is always better. Have excellent graphics and CPU performance, resulting in a lot of heat inside the laptop.

    When you are working in the zone of silence, it's quite annoying when the fun of constantly cooling fan but there is not much to do. If you simply work like writing or to check something on the net, I recommend to use the other profile in energy saving or you can manually set the speed of the CPU processing to lower the level. I also recommend you to stop all unnecessary processes.

  • Food access option for when I close the lid on my laptop cant

    When I go to the control panel and select power options and then "choose the closing cover" it not gives me the ability to change anything. I can see the options there but they are that a little gray color which means that you cannot modify them. I have a Samsung qx410-jo1 notebook and that as far as I know that they do not have a driver for it so I wonder if there is a way to ensure that I can change what happens when I close my lid.

    You could start the the Task Manager and in the process tab, you will find all background applications that would appeal to the CPU.
    Click the CPU column to display all the processes of loading the CPU.

    However, you can also try to change the option of cooling method that is available in Windows Advanced Power options.
    Go to control panel → power options.
    Click here on the power plan that is currently in use.
    Then click on advanced power options and access the cooling method.

    Here you can change it from active to passive.

    In addition, you can decrease the status of CPU max at 90-95%

    6 easy tips to speed up OS X Yosemite on your Mac.

    Avoid using third-party software that claims to clean your computer. This software does more harm than good. In addition, you don't need it. Note that all computers become slower over time even in the normal conditions of use. Generally, the experienced users erasing the hard drive and do a clean install from scratch at least once a year or every time that the installation of a major upgrade of the OS. Well sure doing so also means that you need to maintain regular and several backups.

    Add more RAM or reduce the number of simultaneously executed from applications and utilities. Remove unnecessary software such as anti-malware and that promises to clean your Mac. Look for the runaway process: Runaway applications can shorten the battery life, affect performance and increase the heat and fan acti... See also:

    Before Mavericks

    Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

    Mavericks and later versions

    Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar.

  • Yoga 260 do not SLEEP when the lid is closed

    Hello

    Sometimes when I close the lid off my Yoga 260 Windows 10 do not go to sleep.

    The behavior is really weird because the red light on the cover flashes like when it is in "standby", but I can hear the rotating fan.

    When I open the cover, it's even more bizarre. Windows are not locked and I am not asking for a password. The whole system is very laggy. The mouse moves in jumps, and there is not any response to keyboard or touchscreen. After a few seconds/minutes, the system is suddenly OK as nothing happened.

    Is not happening all the time and I wasn't able to see any model, when this happens.

    What should I do to get rid of this?

    Thx for the help.

    I tried to disable the special function of Lenovo for rapid reactivation in 15 seconds after closing the lid and it seems to be OK now.
