• When I put my PC into sleep mode, it restarts.

  Original title: Sleep Mode

  Using Windows Vista, when I put my computer to sleep to reboot.  The computer restarts on its own.  When it restarts I get the screen asking me if I want to start normally, as if the computer restarted unexpectedly from the computer.  I'd appreciate any help.  Let me know if you need more details.

  Hello
   
   
   
  1. have you made changes on the computer recently?
   
  First of all, you must disable the auto reboot system error and then we can check if the problem exists in safe mode or not.
   
  Method 1.
  Step 1. Disable automatic reboot to avoid unwanted restarts on system failure.
  a. when your computer starts up keep press F8 on your keyboard until you get the Advanced Boot Options screen.
  b. now, use the arrow keys, select Disable automatic restart in case of system error and press ENTER.
   
  Step 2 Start your computer in safe mode and check if the problem exists. If it starts successfully and supposed works can be a third-party application or service is causing the problem. We can use the approach 50 / 50 to narrow down the root cause of the problem.
  
  See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.
  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.
   
  Method 2.
  It is also recommended that you update all hardware drivers.
  For more information see the link below:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

   

  b. you can also check if all the drivers are available through Windows Update.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/update-drivers-recommended-links

  
   

  Method 3.
  If you suspect a virus activity I highly recommend to run a Scan of Virus online. 

  Sometimes the security program installed might not be fair enough. I also recommend you update your security software regularly.

  a. follow the link below to start the free online scan:
  http://OneCare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm

   

  b. run the malware removal tool from Microsoft.

• The password on the computer is not recognized after resuming the computer from sleep mode.

  Original title: windows password problem

  This just started today. When I log on to the computer after having paused, it says that my password is incorrect. Caps lock is disabled and the password. Then I hard boot my computer & it will take my password. What's happening & how to fix it? Help please.

  What do I do or what can I change it to something like a real password?

  Now that you have at least a password that works you must run your own experiences. You might have a problem with CapsLock, NumLock or a few keys that misbehaves. Change a letter/digit at a time until the password fails, you must point in the right direction. We cannot do this for you.

• Mr President, I put in my window 7 Professional which I totally forgot the admin password, I'm not able to use my computer, is it possible to recover the admin password?

  Mr President.

  I got the admin password in my window 7 Professional which I totally forgot, I'm not able to use my computer, is it possible to recover the admin password?

  There is no way to retrieve a forgotten password. However, you can do this:

  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Configure Windows to a point until you have changed the password.
  8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key.

• How to activate the Sleep function to put the computer to sleep if a program is open?

  I have Windows Vista basic on a desktop Dell 530.  I found that if I have a program or application running (such as I-tunes or windows media player) then the Sleep function will not put the computer to sleep.  How to activate the Sleep function to replace these programs and put the computer to sleep?

  Note: This is how it was with windows XP, the Sleep function would put the computer to sleep no matter what was running, he was reliable, if you left the computer and I forgot that you had something running.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hi kevino4130,

  If you disable sharing on your computer (not only the power settings) of media, it should allow him to enter the mode 'sleep'.

  See if that does not solve your problem and let us know.

• Files on a share network stuck as 'read only' to put the computer to sleep.

  By necessity, I use my 98 computer windows that the file server since tempting to access any shares of Vista will cause Windows 9 X to crash. It is already used as a print from the Vista computer server does not have a parallel port.

  I worked on a Microsoft Word document and subject to frequent interruptions. When I put the computer to sleep before walking away from the keyboard, it isn't properly disconnect the Win98 system. Wake up to the computer, I am unable to save office documents, because they are locked for editing.

  In addition, sometimes even after I close Word or Excel, the system is not disconnected. Even when I stopped all other computers, the Win98 system reports that there are still users connected to the system when I go to stop him so. Is it possible to force the Vista computer to disconnect all network connections before you put it to sleep or stopping then the Win98 system recognizes that no one is online and that all the files will be closed?

  I really don't want to have to close a document that I am in the middle of working on when I have to walk away from the keyboard, but this seems the only solution to the problem. Leaving open is the main reason that I put the computer to sleep rather than stop it. Recording locally is not really a good option because I want files stored in one place, and Vista Home Premium does not support synchronized folders.

  Any suggestions? I already use the Briefcase feature to save documents on a flash drive, do I have to use the drive in question and transfer it to the server through network disks? This seems to beat the goal of a network.

  The affected systems are Windows 98 Second edition and Windows Vista 64 bit Home Premium =.

  Hello

  Win 98 is a former client OS, server to call (or any other OS cleint) is nice, but this does not mean that they can be found on a peer-to-peer network and behave like a real server.

  Under this situation (using Win 98 for a server) it is not advisable to change the files over the network. First copy them to the Vista Edit computer and then synchronize. Return using one of the many free synchronization applications that work on most of the windows releases.

  Example, http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Allway_Sync/allwaysync.html

  There is no judgment of network functionality, if the Application is enabled and go to sleep while a file is open on Win 98 it will stay open. Closing the file needs to be done by the application.

• Why when I put my computer to sleep it restarts?

  Sometimes when I put my computer to sleep, it instantly reboots. Its very frustrating because, then I have to wait for it to start so I can try to put it to sleep again, and it restarts again, so I just leave it or close it.

  There is a key on the keyboard that puts your computer to sleep?

  N ° you must do it from the start menu or yuu can be programmed to go to sleep when you close the lid if it is a laptop.  You can also create your own keyboard shortcut that will put the computer to sleep (but this isn't an F key).

  I hope this helps.  If you want more information, reply back asking questions about what you want to know.
