How to set only your screen and the HDD to sleep

I'm going away for an extended period of time and let my laptop. However, I intend to connect to my laptop occasionally via a remote access account. In order to keep my computer "connectable", is there a setting I can chance that would have the computer display and a HDD to sleep but not the network? My laptop is going to be plugged in, so I'm not worried about the battery on me dying.

Platform: Vista Edition Home Premium
Computer: Dell Inspiron 1520

Sincerely, Danny

  • After logging on my Satellite Pro only black screen and the cursor are visible

    I have a windows vista pro (PSAASE-00G004GR) satellite after turn on and typing the password for windows vista, the screen goes black but I see that the cursor moves & because it seems that the hard drive also works in th background, but I can't see anything except the mouse cursor , I tried to boor with other options (LAST WORK safe MODE KNOWN FEATURES... etc) but it's still the same only black screen and the cursor...

    I do not prefer the product cause of my data recovery on this subject, any ideas?
    thnx

    Hello

    You have the Satellite Pro A100 PSAAS hmm if you want to save your personal data, I recommend to remove the portable computer HARD drive and try connecting it to another computer via an external USB HDD controller. These cases of 2.5 HARD disk are not expensive and you can buy it in every store of the computer.

    Then you could try to recover the laptop delivered together with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    But wait; have you tried to connect the laptop to the external display?
    Check it!
    Maybe you could see something on the second screen.

    I think that this procedure could be useful to clarify what s wrong.
    To me this question looks like a small little dysfunction of the FL inverter.
    In this case the installation of the new operating system will help you not to solve this problem.

    But who knows the verification is necessary to find what could be wrong.

    Good luck and bye ;)

  • How to set a heading style and the default text on Quick?

    On Adobe first Essentials 13 video editing, if I use Quick is it possible to set a default style for titles and text? I see instructions on setting up a style by default in Expert, but that doesn't seem to work at the Quick. Thank you.

    Wonderful news of your success with the default text and burn it to disk. Good job sorting through the troubleshooting paths to find

    solutions.

    In general, I burn it to DVD disc with a check mark next to Fit content in the burn dialog box to the available space. The only time I leave this option disabled

    is if I get an error of data rate and I have to manually set the baud rate. When you get to Blu - ray, the situation is a little different.

  • How to complete the data or details of the only this year and the previous year for the given RATNG?

    Hi all

    I created a form with 5 blocks (namely ENQACMHDR, ENQACMDTL, ENQACEHDR, ENQACEDTL, ENQACSPEC), where I have 8 push buttons (namely ENTER_QUERY, EXEC_QUERY, CLEAR, FIRST, NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST, and EXIT).

    This form is created just for display purposes only. So after that I ran, all blocks have been blocked against insert and update.

    I have question on 2 fields 'ENQNO' and "RATNG" (both belong to the ENQACMDTL block).

    When I click on "EXEC_QUERY" directly, all data for all years fills.

    But the user wanted the data to be populated only this year and the previous year.

    Yes, on ' Clause WHERE' of the property_palette of the 'ENQACMDTL' block , I put in the following condition:

    SUBSTR (ENQACMDTL. ENQNO, 1, 4) = TO_CHAR (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE,-12), 'YYYY') OR SUBSTR (ENQACMDTL. ENQNO, 1, 4) = TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYY')

    PROPERTY PALETTE (ENQACMDTL block)
    WHERE ClauseSUBSTR (ENQACMDTL. ENQNO, 1, 4) = TO_CHAR (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE,-12), 'YYYY') OR SUBSTR (ENQACMDTL. ENQNO, 1, 4) = TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYY')


    Data only this year and the year before are now filled. Its ok with the field of "ENQNO".

    The problem is when I have queries on the field "RATNG. 'RATNG' is a Text_item with number of displayed items = 5. (5 lines)


    Here are the 2 columns in a Table (name = ENQACMDTL) in the database.


    ENQNO RATNG
    2013900054500KC2
    2013900047800KC4
    2013520018750KC6
    ...............
    20129000371000KC2
    2012520109500KC2
    2012140019750KC6
    ..................
    2011540036500KC2
    20111000301000KC2
    ..................
    .................
    200610000790KD8
    2006750014750KC6
    2006900072500KC2

    The first 4 issues of "ENQNO" represents the year. There is more than a lakhs of records.

    So, when I have queries on the field "RATNG."

    Example: for RATNG = 500KC2;

    I click on ENTER_QUERY, the field of "RATNG", I put in the 500KC2 of the value and click on EXEC_QUERY; Details regarding the 500KC2 is displayed as well as all the other junk RATNG as 750KC6, 1000KC2 (which belongs to the ENQNO of the current year and previous year) also gets displayed.

    I want details of only RATNG (500KC2) to display, but only for the current year and the previous year, it is 2013900054, 2012520109 (ENQNO).

    Other than 500KC2 RATNG, no other RATNG must be displayed.

    500KC2 = RATNG is also present for ENQNO = 2011540036, 2006900072. But I don't want them to view.

    I want only the data or details of the current year and the previous year to be filled or displayed for the given RATNG.

    Can you help me or tell me what I do for this?

    Hope I'm clear with my question!

    If my question is not clear, let me know please.

    Thank you.

  • Presenter PowerPoint on Mac mini mode displayed on the screen and the projector when using HDMI splitter

    We have a Mac mini connected to a screen and a projector via HDMI using a HDMI splitter.

    It works fine for most applications, but during presentations PowerPoint, presenter is displayed on the monitor and the projector.

    When I disconnected the mini Mac's HDMI cable and put it in a MacBook, the presenter appeared on the MacBook screen (as it should) and only the slide appears on the screen and on the projection screen.

    Of course if we have to use the MacBook for presentations instead of the Mac mini, you would need to have seen the presenter on both the screen and on the screen of the MacBook.

    In the Mac mini display preferences there is no button to "Gather Windows" when the Mac mini is attached to the screen and the projector via HDMI splitter is a tab "setting."

    But these two things appear on the MacBook when it is connected.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Hi Admin,
    When I was playing the game and my 3D PC show the black screen and the sound of noise. And then I can't move anything and I can restart only. What is this problem? I don't know why? Please help me what should I do.
    My PC specs are as follows

    Aspire M5800 (Q84MR375) Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium, 64-bit, Intel Core 2 Quad processor Q8400 (2.66 GHz, 4 MB L2 Cache, bus front at 1333 MHz), 3 GB Ram, 750 GB S - ATA HDD, DVD SuperMulti Double Layer drive, Nvidia GeForce GT220 graphics (1 GB dedicated RAM) card, Wireless LAN, keyboard and wireless mouse with LCD 23 '' monitor.

    phoechan,
    More than likely if this started after you upgrade to Windows7 then you might have to update your hardware drivers.  Go to the websites of the manufacturers of hardware for your PC and get all the latest drivers for Windows 7 (video, sound, chipset, etc...).  If they don't have Windows 7 drivers you may have questions until they create them.  You can also try to boot your PC and also right click on the game .exe file and change the compatibility mode to Vista or XP.

After 9 latest updates download and installtion was going well until I rebooted the computer and go to page window showing all the icons that I get a blue screen and the computer restarts its self and does not stop. How can this be corrected?

    Hi KevinRy,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Unplug all external devices.

    Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

    Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

    1.

    Right-click my computerand then click Properties.

    2.

    Click the Advanced tab.

    3.

    Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.

    4.

    Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.

    5.

    Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

    Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

    Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

    Kind regards

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    For example, 640 × 480 is a lower screen resolution, and 1600 × 1200 is higher. CRT monitors generally display a resolution of 800 × 600 or 1024 × 768. LCD monitors can better support the higher resolutions. If you can increase your screen resolution depends on the size and capability of your monitor and the type of video card you have.

    Text and images are sharper and smaller at high screen resolutions
    Text is larger and easier to read at low screen resolutions, but images are rasterized and number of items adapted to the screen
    1. Open display settings by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click appearance and personalization, clickingPersonalization, and clickingDisplay parameters.

    2. Under resolution, move the slider to the desired resolution, then clickApply.

    Notes

    • When you change the screen resolution, it affects all users who log on the computer.

    • When you set your monitor to a screen resolution that it will not support, the screen will go black for a few seconds while the monitor returns to the original resolution

  • Impossible to get from your screen to the user?

    Basically, I turn on my PC and when the time comes for me to choose a user click on the my profile icon. A few seconds later I'm back on the same page. It will not display the signs of user name and password, only the same user profile icons. I tried to restart and safe mode and others.

    What should I do?

    Note: if my password is necessary at some point some of my keys do not work with a key that is in my password. I usually use the touchscreen keyboard, but it is not available in safe mode and what not.

    Hi Kieran,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    If the Panel username and password is not displayed during logon and the problem persists even in safe mode, then the question could be if there is a corrupted file system or some third party conflicts.

    I suggest that you want to run auto repair with installation media and see if it helps you repair system files or not. For the execution of the task, I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    When you use the recovery environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot startup issues, first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If this does not resolve the problem, or if you have additional problems manually, use the Bootrec.exe tool.

    Because you cannot start the computer, you may need to create a bootable Windows installation media, and then do an auto repair, and if this does not help then you try to restore your computer to the previous date.

    Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    If you are using Windows 7 then the link provided below might help you to download and create installation media.

    Download Windows 7 Disk Images (ISO files)

    Method 2

    If the problem persists, try to rebuild the BCD by using the Bootrec.exe tool. To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows recovery environment (Windows RE) . To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Place the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
    2. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
    3. Click repair your computer.
    4. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
    5. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
    6. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

    See the following link for more information:

    How to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/927392

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

  • Change the resolution of the screen and the screen went black

    Then I tried to change the resolution of the screen and the screen went black.  I tried to restart, plug in my HDMI port on my TV... Nothing.  So I went with a system refresh (yes I'm sure it was a refresh and not a restore).

    The fact that there is no integrated procedure to detect the moment where that happens and return to the old resolution is annoying enough...  But now after that choose the system update and it would be only to reset the settings to default back and keep all the files (as he said it would be), I am extremely frustrated to know that it has deleted ALL my programs.  Program E-v-e-r-y.  This means that Chrome, Firefox, jGrasp, AutoCAD, all my programs Microsoft Office, all my Adobe stuff, my Visual Studio and so much more that I'm not naming.

    I REALLY hope there is a place where they were stored so I don't have to reinstall everything manually.  If not, then wow, Microsoft... We finished.

    Unfortunately a refresh as he said, only maintains personal records (program data), the data can be located in the "in the"Windows"folder windows.old folder normally C /: Drive, all modern apps should be kept."

    All programs of office/legacy (Chrome, Firefox, jGrasp, etc.) need to be relocated from their original sources

    Keep all of your programs, personal files (data), settings, the best option is to create a "Disk Image" - see link below for info.
