  • Given to nine monitors comes not with power cords or anything else.

    So I ordered a P2414H delivered nine who arrived yesterday. The only thing in the box was the monitor and invoice. What was not included was a power cord, any kind of connection, warranty information cord, manual, etc.. Nada. I called customer yesterday evening to be hung at one time and then the second time that I was transferred to a record to let me know they were closed. I tried the cat today and I'm not really sure if something has been accomplished. He said he would send me a power cable, but it will be a 8 days MINIMUM to get it for me, because it will take eight days to process my application. I guess it's just politics that he had been informed. One of my friends said they spent night its power to him cords, it has exactly the same problem. I really wish that the customer service was more consistent, because it's pretty ridiculous. I have no way to test this monitor and hope that my warranty/return time is not running down because of this, even though I know that it is. I can not even check to see if this monitor works. I am extremely disappointed by Dell for the moment. I know for a fact that in previous posts, noted that the renovated monitors come with cords of same that make new ones. Why is it so hard to get what I paid?

  • Blue light on the power cord for Inspiron One 2320

    Just bought two Inspiron One 2320 Dell Outlet. The one with the Pentium processor and no touch screen came with a power supply cord has a continuous blue light to the stem of the rope through the computer. The one with the i3 processor and a touch screen has no blue light. Why should light and the other does not. Also, I would pass the cords since the cord with a blue light on the system in a bedroom and is boring. Any ideas?

    Because we're a KMART blue light special.

    Wrap the plug with a piece of black electrical tape and the problem is solved.

    Hello

    Certainly possible that the load and the battery circuit has problems - battery may
    must be replaced. A good computer store can say what to (not the leeks and peaks at)
    a BestBuy or other big box stores) or the manufacturer of your system Support.

    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.

  • OfficeJet 8720: Officejet HP 8720 (D9L19A): power cord issue & legality in the United Kingdom

    Hello

    As a society, we standardize more than 150 sites on the new printer HP Officejet Pro 8720.

    We ordered about 8 at our dealer online recently (Softcat) and each arrived with a European power cord 2 pin and not a power cord 3 pins of the UK.

    This causes significant confusion for our end users, and I think that it is illegal to even provide goods in the EU without the correct national power cord.

    Our retailer say that HP have armed upward and shipped loads of these 8720's without the correct power cords. It seems that a mass surveillance on HP is illegal and a part too? How can this happen?

    Surely all stock the 8720's should be limited to the British market and fixed with the right power cord?

    I have not reported this Exchange Standard yet, but I want to just get an idea of what's going on?

    Thank you

  • computer laptop power cord overheating

    I have a HP Pavillion DV6409us.  I got it for at least 3 years.  The first power cord it came with broke at the bend of the hook into the computer, ordered a generic replacement cord - he worked nearly a year and snapped in the same place.  Ordered the exact same generic cord in May and it now (after using it for 3 months) overheating where the plug goes into the computer.  It got so hot you can feel it and he put a black line around the plug (the real end of rubber around the metal was extremely hot - almost soft).

    I decided that it must be something with this charger generic so I bit the bullet and spent 100 for new sector and HP power cord adapter.  It has today - plugged and it got hot in a few minutes.  What is the cause?  Obviously this is not the power cord.  Laptop was working fine and now would be if I could charge the battery.

    HP sent me some letters that the batteries being recalled, but when I look at mine until it is not on the list but really don't think it's the battery anyway because he's hot, even if the battery is out.

    I hope someone can help me - can't afford a new laptop now.

    The DC Jack on the laptop is very likely wrong, use a flashlight and look in the plug for damage, there will be some or all of the black plastic missing in the central part of the CC.

  • Pavilion Slimline lock up in sleep mode-fan works high not lights up unless I pull the power cord 1

    New HP Pavilion Slimline desktop 400-314 - mode 'sleep' sometimes cause to lock the computer, the power light is on, the fan runs at the top.  Only way to unlock the computer is to hold the power button for 5 seconds.  I wait 15-20 seconds, then press the power button to wake it up.  Immediately the computer restarts to the top with solid power light and the fan turns at the top.  The only way to break this vicious circle must first pull the power cord to the rear, wait 30 seconds and plug it in again.  This time, when I turn on the computer it goes off just fine.

    Is this a BIOS problem?  Please help as I don't have that much hair left.

    * Solved * Finally!  After 8 grueling days of pain staking agony and incessant attempts to fix this thing, I finally solved my problem.  I spent countless hours on the phone with HP support and nothing resolved.  That is: the problem with this computer locking up and sending the fan at high spin was due only with external speakers. When you reset the power system disconnected to boot the system, he would normally go for at least half a day before locking up.  I discovered that the speakers are older than 15 years. It's funny, these speakers worked fine on a desktop HP 2004 previous Pavilion running on Windows XP.  Now, it's static build-up that caused my death or something else?  As far as I know, it's that I'm a happy camper using headphones with a new system of HP that finally works.  Thank you to everyone who made suggestions.

  • Pavilion DV7-3060us: BIOS restore file "not a win32 application invalid" (Pavilion DV7)

    I have an intermittent (about 19 times out of 20) on a Pavilion DV7-3060us BIOS failure.  After that you press power, the fan and the light turns on, the screen remains black and lock/num lock flashing twice, pause, flash twice, etc..  Sometimes, the computer will boot normally to Win7.   Near as I can understand, I need to reflash the BIOS.  I downloaded the image file winflash/BIOS (SP47531.exe) the drivers and software page, but when I try to run it, I get a "...". not a Win32 valid request"message.

    Any advice on how to get this file to run it, or another method to solve the failure of startup issue, would be very much appreciated.

    So much worse... apparently the problem is I downloaded the file through Chrome.  Downloaded with IE on another machine, recorded on a USB key, it connected the USB on the machine of problem without difficulty.  Does not seem to have solved my problem starting, but the 'valid not a Win32 application' error has been resolved.

  • dv7-1270us accidental power cord Bump

    So, the other night, I was using my laptop with the power cord plugged in. I had completely forgotten and picked up my laptop in another room. It pulled out the power cord from my computer.

    I now have trouble to take the power cord to the power jack on the side of the laptop. I don't have to wave around, but it takes a few tries before it connects and starts to charge the battery. When he does not want to take the charger, the little LED next to the power supply blinks instead of stay on constantly. When the computer accepts the cord, the light stays on.

    He isn't physically feel that something is wrong, but if I have to fix it, no one knows how I would look at? Or should I just watched in get a new computer?

    Thank you

    Decision-making is modular, which means that it can be replaced without welding. Decision-making is at little cost; well under $ 20. Assuming that no other damage has been done other than the Jack, you look at maybe $100 to replace the Jack in a local store. The work is also achievable by a well-organized and modestly qualified amateur. This is the plug for $4 on eBay:

  • Satellite C660D - 181 Power Cord issues and can not read CD or DVD

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-181 and my power cord has had problems with the connection. I plugged it in and the light on the left indicating it is plugged in and charged off and my cell phone begins to lose his load.

    I must escape around and try to get it just in the right position to show him it is plugged. I have it plugged into an extension of the Strip which is connected to the main outlet (and the only outlet) in the room.

    I use it exclusively in the living room so I'm close to the telephone and TV, so move it to another room will not be the answer. I'm afraid that the repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now.

    Another question, I'll have, it's that I can't read a CD or a DVD. I have Windows Media Player and Apple Quick time Player. I chose to play the media instantly, but it still does not work. I installed cc registry cleaner to see if it was a registry problem, but no joy there. I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit.

    The most important issue to address at the moment is the power supply cord. I appreciate your help. Please, profane as computer jargon escapes me.

    > I worry that repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now
    What is this option? You want to fix it yourself?
    Don t think that it s a real option since you would need good parts, hand tools, maintenance and find out how to fix it.

    Since you and I don t know exactly the cost of repair, I would recommend first asking how this fix could be I mean, you can request a service in your country for a price and could decide if its worth for you

  • monitor turns off not by the switch at the top. power cord seems loose at the back of the monitor. just need a

    I have a hp w2338h monitor, running Windows 7 and I am unable to turn off the monitor through the top switch. The power cord seems loose in its connection to the monitor. Do I just a new cord or something else is necessary?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Try to push the power cord firmly upward.  It should not move when it is completely inserted.

    Try a reset of the monitor. Unplug the power cord from the monitor and hold the power button of the monitor for 30 to 60 seconds. Plug the monitor back in and it lights up.

    the light on the power button does not work. How can I activate it?

    If the key light is not lighting up, then more than likely that the LED is just out for your power button. If the laptop is still under warranty, you can it be repaired or replaced, but as long as its not causing you any serious issues, I worry too much with it.

  • Acer Switch 10 i. put powered w / power cord, power button + volume Up/Down ii. No LED light

    Problem:

    Power does not illuminate. 75% battery charge. A tried
    a. power switch button
    b. power button + volume Up/Down button for 60 seconds (technique of being able to be in hibernation mode)
    c. a/c power cord... light to show load or power not turn on AND the Tablet does not become hot... in other words, Tablet accepts no power coming from being plugged into an electric outlet

    Solutions to be able to put it back on

    1. perhaps central card mother battery died... Well, in the past my LAPTOP would work with single power supply and no battery... but... it is a tablet that works maybe like a mobile phone because if the battery is dead, then unit does not work until the Central battery has sufficient charge

    2. maybe an electrical circuit problem?

    3. may reset a deep sleep mode?   ... but already there is a technique of this situation and I tried it.

    4 perhaps, software power settings but if are unable to start. can't get to the BIOS.

    Thanks much for any help.

    Solution... it was an electrical problem, capacitor w / low-Volt charge had gone below this threshold to function, voltage decay over time.  Replaced.  Laptop as it has done before does not.

  • Dell Dimension 9200. The orange light flashes. Power disconnect day + this market but stop and it will not work unless that unplugged for a day

    Flashes orange and no lights on the front panel next to the USB ports. (see amber light on motherboard, power button / stop 15 sec + he disappears, but the computer does not start, a few times the fan turned on couple seconds), initially it used to go in the cycle (starts for about 3-5 seconds and stops) several times and the flashing yellow light.

    If I unplug the power cord for a day + and try, it worked, stop and restart immediately worked too but when I shutdown and come after a few hours, it will not start again (power plugged).
    Disconnect the power supply for a day + new and it worked once tried.

    I did the reset by pressing the power button / 15 sec + but no luck. Until a day + unplugged worked so far about three times will try again tomorrow and see what happens if I don't stop the computer ever.

    What a PSU or of the motherboard problem or some other problem? Hope it can be fixed.

    Rav96

    A flashing orange power LED, usually indicates a power supply problem power, given the age of the Dimension 9200, which is highly likely.

    Try to replace the power supply with a power supply of labour "Known", to see if that makes a difference.

    This system does not use an exclusive power of Dell, you can install most power supply ATX with a power connector 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin main motherboard and this can be purchased in most local computer stores, or online.

    The 9200 has a rear panel open, a diet with or without the on/off switch can be installed.

    Note: You need a PSU with six SATA power connectors.

    Otherwise, you can buy a refurbished Dell OEM [Dell P/N KH624] 375w PSU from here:

  • HP Deskjet 6988 seems dead. Mid-page printing order, all the lights are off except the power cord light

    He won't return.  Push buttons does not help, or not pulling on the power cord to the printer, standby, restart the router & printers.  I have also connected by ethernet cable but I do not think that the connection is the problem because the printer is connected to power but will not produce lights or sounds.  It does not appear on the list of printers, and utility HP cannot detect it.   Windows Vista 32-bit, in my opinion, bought in 2007.  Is it gone forever?

    Hi Poboy,

    If the adapter has a green light to this topic, and you tried to plug it into different outlets, this would indicate that the printer may be dead. If you have tried these steps consult the following site
