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.

  • When I close the lid on my laptop, random programs begin to run.

    1. so here's the deal:

    I have laptop Dell XPS L502X in Win7 Pro;

    b. out of nowhere, and all of a sudden the next irritating problem started havoc. When I close the lid on my laptop at night, random programs begin to run. The desktop icons move into other folders or the trash. It changes the size of the larger icons... it changes even the settings 'snap to grid '.

    2 until you tell me to turn it off or put it to sleep extended mode... I need to let you know that I need to leave the mobile "awake" so that it downloads my incremental changes to Carbonite cloud, as well as my local/resident of mirror [Carbonite] drive.

    3 oh yes: I also went up to disable the 'mouse' integrated glidepoint device, too: same result... madness.

    4 I jumped every hoop I can think... to run the diagnostics runs each available from Norton 360 scan... Online / remote - to both Norton AND Microsoft support.

  • External screen goes blank when I close the lid Satellite P100

    Hi all.
    I hope someone has an idea as to what is happening here.

    Sometimes I like to watch a dvd or use the center of the media on my HD TV. I use Windows Vista to make it.

    When I had XP installed, I close the lid of the laptop and watch them to my heart's content. Now with Vista, I need to have the lid open be able to watch on the external display. If I close to you then the external screen is empty, as if I unplugged the laptop.

    That makes me free! What worries me is burn-in screen, because the standby screen not turn on as I am watching video.

    Help! Someone! Anyone!

    AFAIK in Vista that you can use the same options as under WXp. check please supply option and you will find an option called when I close the lid. As option, choose no action.

    I think you should be able to close the lid while watching the movie on screen.

  • Satellite C650 stops when I close the lid

    I recently got my laptop for Christmas, and a few weeks ago, I noticed that whenever I opened the cover, I had to turn it back on. He woul say the computer stops unexpectedly. Then you choose the security mode or regular. You hit one and we would send you to the Start Up repair.

    What should I do to get that normal back where I can close the lid and then open it again without having to reboot and wait more than seven minutes to start repair.
    Also, I got the blue screen.

    Do I have a virus, or is there another way I could fix it?

    Stand by. In the history I n t understand one thing: in power options on the side left (blue color), you can find the option choose closing the cover. Which option is implemented here?

  • Satellite A200 AH3 stops instead of standby when I close the lid

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite A200 AH3. When I bought Windows Vista was preinstalled (I still drive recovery). When I closed the lid of the previous day (I mean the monitor turn off the HD, the cooling fan and all the rest). The light On / Off on the laptop turned to a flashing orange light.

    Then I opened the lid and Windows prompted me to the logon screen. This process occurred when the laptop starts on the battery, not when it is plugged. Everything was going fine.

    But I formatted the HD to install WIndows XP that I bought Windows vista seem to be too heavy for my laptop. So I installed Windows XP and the driver and the software available on the Toshiba site. Now when I close the lid, the Windows shut down very quickly (about5-6 seconds). However, it is a real firm. When I reopen it cover anything happen.

    Then I press the power button / stop and start Windows, normally (no screen saying that windows close annormally and no Safe Mode boot option). Even if I change the setting in the control panel/power Option or the Toshiba Power Saver, utility and I put them to sleep, he always make a stop down.

    How do I restore that?

    Hello!

    Have you downloaded the BIOS for Windows XP?
    For the Satellite A200, there are two versions available; one for XP and one for Vista.

    Also, make sure that you have the latest graphics card driver and keep your XP to date.

    Good bye

  • Computer locking when I close the lid

    I have a laptop sony vaio vgn-aw290. When I got it after you have configured the fingerprint reader it would lock the computer when I closed the lid. If I close and open it immediately and it would make me a password. He wouldn't buy support standby or hibernation, it would simply lock the computer. recently, we went to panama, fl on vacation and this feature no longer works. don't know why or how or exactly when. I looked through the settings and power options and may not know how to re - set parameters to lock the lid closed. I also have an HP that has begun to stay unlocked when I close the lid. I would like to know how to configure it to crash when the lid closes, so I don't need the screen saver locks with a password to send it in stand-by or press win + L before I close the lid.

    You can follow the procedure below to change the Power Options.

    1. Click Start, then Control Panel.

    2 double click on Power Options.

    3. under "Advanced", set the option "When I close the lid of my portable computer" according to your preferences.

  • When a close the lid of my portable computer Windows Media Player stops, and when I open it, it picks up.

    When a close the lid of my computer laptop wmp stops and when I open it, it resumes. This only happens on the battery. I have it set to not sleep, and there is no screen saver. I want to use my cell phone as an mp3 player without having to leave the lid open. is there anyway to prevent a break?

    original title: WMP stops when the lid is closed

    Open Power Options - you can do it from the control panel by typing Power Options in the start menu, or by right click on the battery icon in your system tray (right end of the taskbar.)
    Click on "change plan settings" for your current power management.  On the next page, click "Change advanced power settings".  On the box that opens, expand 'Power buttons and lid', then 'action close cover.'  Change the selection to "on battery" to the 'status quo', and then click OK.  Close the power Plan window.

  • When I close the lid on my MBP, it goes to "Standby" to "Hibernate" why?

    My MacBook Pro for six years had been working perfectly until about a month earlier, when he stopped to stay in Mode standby when I closed the lid.

    With the lid closed, initially, he goes to sleep, but after about 30 seconds, it goes into hibernation mode and to turn on again, I have to press the power button. I then get a grey screen and no use of the trackpad. Shortly after, the gray screen disappears and the machine works perfectly.

    The battery life is very good (68%), I have reset the SMC and I have not loaded the new software. The only thing I can think is that this started to occur at the time of the last update of Safari.

    Does anyone else have this problem?  Comments or suggestions are appreciated.  Thank you.

    Hello, Spring Lake Bob!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. After reviewing your post, I understand that your MacBook Pro sleeps as expected when you close the lid. Instead, it goes into a hibernation mode that requires you to press the power button to interact with him again. I certainly understand wanting to make sure that the computer sleeps when it should wake up how it should. I'd be happy to help you!

  • Satellite 1800-314: when I close the lid it won't go in standby mode

    I hope someone can help.
    I recently had my Satellite 1800-314 (Windows XP) re-formatted and now when I close the lid he's going to sleep... the power light flashes orange, when I opened the lid still once, Windows stops and then restarts. I tried to install the Toshiba power settings, defining "when I close the lid, in standby mode", does not.

    Have uninstalled then Toshiba power settings and all the settings of ordinary power in the Panel of 'sleep', etc., but it REST did not return to standby mode.
    I'm tired now.
    Is there a simple solution that I'm missing?

    Grateful in advance for any help!

    Hello

    You know it's very important to install drivers in the correct order.
    The installation of common modules at the beginning is important because some drivers of Tosh need this application to work properly.
    If the energy saver has been installed on the operating system windows power settings will not work.
    Toshiba crash parameters the parameters of Microsoft.

    In addition, please check your BIOS preinstalled. Compare the version with the BIOS on the page. If your uses of the unit the old version, so try to update.
    But be careful. You must use the good BIOS and the right procedure upgrades.

  • Takes too long to Hibernate when I close the lid - also the noise of random device when starting

    Hello guys.

    Since I wiped the machine, I had these two problems. When I close the lid, he used to go to bed right now, but now I see the light of sleep (and the power button), flash and flash, and then he goes to sleep.

    Upon awakening, he crosses the start of lenovo screen and resumption of the windows, then it asks for a password, before I used to open the lid and he was asking me the password immediately. I know it was going to sleep because I could hear the beep immediately when I closed and opened, but now it takes just too long.

    In addition, every time I have boot into windows or resume in a sleep state windows, I hear the sound of the device, like something being connected input/output. But there's nothing being plugged or back at the time. I can't to Device Manager fast enough to see who it is who is the cause.

    But all the drivers seem to be correct.

    Thanks in advance.

    Weird.

    This is probably controlled by the power settings. Once you enter the power settings there should be an option something similar to 'change the closure of the hood '. There are probably several options such as sleeping, ect...
