  • ENVY of HP dv6-7300ex Notebook PC: Wi - Fi does not work on battery mode

    Hello

    Good evening everyone,

    I have a problem with connecting Internet using Wi - Fi connection. When I use the battery mode, the internet connection does not work. However, when I plug the cable into electricity, it works very well without any problems. The computer shows me that I am connected to WiFi but when I try to go to some Web sites, it does not work.

    The original operating system is windows 8 and now I've upgraded to windows 10. However, the problems is not in the two operating systems.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Check with support from the manufacturer of their books online and the drivers and their forums system
    (as applicable) for known issues. Some manufacturer issued BIOS and other updates to help the battery
    problems.

    Control Panel control - plan change Options - power plans - power - advanced settings
    Parameters for the drainage and the use of parameters (this is how much to use and not how much or how)
    long to load).

    In fact, what causes a lot of wear on a battery empties it too low on several occasions. With today
    systems overload are not a problem.

    Here are some tips to help and troubleshoot battery issues.

    Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
    eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
    them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
    Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have on line forums.

    New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload then less than 30%
    However on a laptop that not extend their life a lot. Best is to use the a/c adapter
    When this is possible.

  • Windows xp does not boot in any mode

    I still can't find info on windows xp does not start in any mode.  Keep the loop on the screen where it has the Safe Mode, Safe Mode with network, last Configuration know, etc.  Any solution?  I appreciate your time.

    Do you have household XP No Boot Troubleshooting as stated in the post sticky at the top of the forums?

    They were practically useless, I'm happy that they were taking him down.

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Fill in the blank:

    My system worked well until: _.

    If there is a problem starting, XP is configured to automatically try to start again and you can stuck in a loop not being able to go beyond the screen boot options, or none of these startup options you choose will work only.

    Sometimes, when XP has a problem starting or falls down and tries to start again, it will give you a "short" menu of boot options and none of them will appear to be good to get your system going again.  You have tried them all!

    The options are similar to the Advanced Boot Options menu XP, but the only option that you need (disable automatic error system reboot) are not offered, because XP went too far during the boot process and offers a limited number of boot options.

    If this is the case, you must call Options menu advanced boot yourself until you do not see the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    When you get the XP Advanced Options correct start menu you want to see, he has options on it like these:

    Safe mode
    Safe mode with networking
    Safe mode with command prompt

    Enable Boot logging
    Enable VGA mode
    Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
    Directory Services Restore Mode (Windows domain controllers only)
    Debug mode
    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Start Windows normally
    Reset
    Return to OS Choices Menu

    You need to choose in this menu is the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

    If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

    If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start tapping the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restart on system failure, and then select.

    You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

    If your system has a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), we need to know what the screen says:

    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:

    http://TechRepublic.com.com/i/tr/downloads/images/bsod_a.jpg

    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).

    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.

    If it looks like there is some kind of name listed in the STOP message file, send this line also.

    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.

    Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    My wife and I was watching a DVD on the computer and did not know that decision was not lit, and therefore the computer off. When we restarted it after that food was missing the sound no longer works, and I have been unable to restart. I have restarted the computer, checked all very silent buttons etc, and I have uninstalled/reinstalled the driver.

  • Plugged not charging - laptop does not work on battery

    I have a Lenovo laptop running Windows 7 less than a year.  But it does not work on battery now.  Battery level icon said: ' 87% available (plugged in, does not support).  Multiple, several times I tried to remove and re - insert the battery, restarting, uninstalling the 'Compatible Microsoft ACPI Control method battery' driver through the device, new material to re Analysis Manager - find the battery and re-install the driver, over and over again.  Nothing works for me--and if I unplug the AC adapter, the laptop just dies instantly.  Basically, it is as if the computer can see the battery, knows it is there and has the power, but don't give her a load or pull everything current.  What is the reference for this?  Anyone?  Help, please!  Thank you.

    Key on the keyboard does not work in firefox box when you type in the web site, but it works everywhere else?

    Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

    Can be caused by an add-on to the AVG.

  • Since the update of FF 8/9, many Web sites does not, even in safe mode. Any idea what the problem might be?

    All sites worked fine before v8.0 and 9.0. But now many sites (for example, newegg.com & baltimoresun.com) won't load. I hit the button reload several times before that something appears on the screen at all. I tried safe mode - no help. I disabled javascript, which helped some, but does not cure the problem, since even with him off a few sites still never finish loading. I've also disabled IPv6 and DNS Prefetching and emptied the cache, all to nothing does not. He seems to graphics that are not loading. Someone has an idea what is the question? I swear that I'm ready to switch to Chrome or Solaris, if I can't solve this problem. It's incredibly frustrating.

    Well, the problem was caused by the upgrade to v8.0 corrupt something in my profile. Create a new profile loading problem disappear, this is the fix for this particular problem. Significant pain for sure, since the creation of a profile "duplicate" isn't a very elegant process in FF.

    WARNING: If you try this fix, be sure to first make a backup of your current profile. (When I deleted my original profile in the Profile Manager, it also - incredibly - deleted the files that I had copied to my new profile.) Any thoughts on that, dev team?)
