Equium do not sleep when closing 'lid' - happens after the Vista update

Since a recent update to Vista my laptop won't sleep with the (power) button either in the start menu.
The power led lights in red and it says "lock computer" when I try to wake up.

Can anyone help?

Have you tried to roll back OS (until the updates have been installed), using the System Restore tool?

    Hello:

    I have a VM 10.10 that I use to manage some iPads to the Department via the configurator to Apple.  After 8.1 update, I can't have iPads to connect regularly.  When I get to get an iPad connected and try the update, it will not reconnect.  I tried changing the settings of relay USB connect only to the virtual machine, but nothing helped.  This happens also in iTunes.

  • Satellite L450D - nothing else happens after the BIOS update

    Toshiba Bulletin Board recommended 1 new message. Downloaded updated BIOS available. Frozen computer during the update and what would not be it. Now, the computer is totally dead. Power light turns on when the connected external CAP but nothing else. I did follow the instructions specific to Toshiba. Pleas advise.

    Hey,.

    It of strange that the BIOS update gone wrong, because I already did several times and never had a problem did you run background applications they probably blocked the update?

    Anyway, what you can try is to remove the battery and the AC adapter / CC for a few hours. Then reconnect and try to boot up your laptop.

    In the worst cases the ROM module needs to be reflashed, but an authorized service provider can help you get rid of this problem. :)

  • Office 2007 does not open after the Vista update

    Hello world

    I've been using a trial version of Office 2007 Standard supplied with my notebook for almost two months without any problem. Yesterday I updated to Vista x 64 and now I get a "the application failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect." pop up when I try to open any office program.

    I uninstalled and downloaded another version to test, but when I try to open Word or any other part of the office, I get the same error.

    Out of all the "" regular updates, it's the only one that is a new: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 64 I guess this is the prob.

    I tried to uninstall Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, but the uninstall program always, said: "Setup.exe has stopped working".

    Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Here's an update. The two programs of Nikon not open as well. I don't know what other progs have been affected.

  • Windows 7 splash screen will not change after the vista update

    After updating vista 32 bit to windows 7 32 bits, the splash screen will not change and he showed the vista boot. I read a lot of forum and the web page, but this solution:

    «.. . the dummies and bad start screen for Windows 7 is due to the locale entry in the startup folder, which could not be set when editing or rebuilding the BCD. When the locale is not found, Windows boot loader doesn't know what local startup folder to look for the animated bootscreen. Thus, in order to fix the boot screen so that the splash screen can be re-established, restored or reset to original animated Windows 7 boot screen, just run one of the following commands at the prompt with administrator rights:

    bcdedit/set {current} settings regional en-US

    or

    BCDboot % WinDir % / l en

    Change the US to the language version of Windows 7 installed, as ja - JP, en - us, es - ARE, pt - BR, zh - CN, zh - TW, fr - FR, fi - FI and etc.

    Restart the computer after running the command to see the new boot UI (user interface) be used again. To check if the locale has been entered properly, just run the bceedit command in the command prompt that is running as an administrator... »

    not solved my problem and also know for many users... after updating vista in windows 7 splash screen stay the same...

  • There is an option to 'save all tabs before closing' - what happened with the last update?

    In formats previous Mozilla, if I had more than 1 tablet open as: Facebook, Aol.comand much much more. When I was ready to close the window and hit the 'x' at the top right, I'd get the options "save tabs & close" "close tabs" "Cancel".

    This gave the option of not having to look for things once again, if you are looking for the same tabs all the time. It's the same exact box you get now, but with the option 'save the tabs and close.

    This option can be added back?

    Thank you for taking the time to listen to...

    If something went wrong during the update of the BIOS you can do anything to reflash the ROM module because special tools are needed. This is possible only from an authorized service provider.

  • Why my windows freeze and go does not respond when I try to install the msn photo on hotmail download tool?

    Why my windows freeze and go does not respond when I try to install the msn photo on hotmail download tool?

    The active x bar descends into the small window and freezes all windows open right there and will not respond. This happens when I open a new message and try to attach photos.

    Things I tried but has not made a difference:

    reinstalled IE 8, deleted the history of the browser, disk Cleanup, removed msn photo upload control, optimized IE8

    With xp media center

    PS. This occurs also at any time the information down to install an active x on any site control

    The only way to surf now with frustration is to use IE 8 NOT add optional

    So I fixed that on my own and that's how I did it.

    You must uninstall IE 8 completely which will bring you to IE 7 (in my case) and then install IE 8 via the site updates or microsoft.

    Uninstallin IE 8 by going to:

    Start--->

    Control Panel--->

    Add Remove programs--->

    Scroll down to IE 8--->

    Click on delete.

    IE8 updates must be removed also, if not then click the box 'To see the updates' on the top of the window to scroll down, look for the IE 8 security updates and delete.

    Resart your computer and install IE 8.

    This worked for me and may or may not work for you.

    You have disabled things like Hibernate and hybrid sleep, etc. on the power options screen in Windows?

    Have you checked the USB settings in the Device Manager? Search tab power management for each listed root USB hub and uncheck the box "allow the computer to turn off this device...". »

    And do the same for entries under Human Interface Devices (HID) device as Manager.
