It is quite clearly a hardware problem, not a a Windows. Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them what to do.

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    What you are not aware of, is that with Win10, even when you turn off your PC, it is still ongoing - because it uses a new form of hibernation called FastStartup.  It is a very different thing from Fast Boot.

    There are two ways to disable FastStartup Win8/10; (1) via the control panel and (2) through a command prompt high.

    Control Panel - open Control Panel-> Power Options.
    Select ' choose what buttons power. "
    Select "change settings that are currently unavailable".
    At the bottom of the window, under stop settings, uncheck the box about quick startup

    High - command prompt run the following command:
    REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power" v HiberbootEnabled /T REG_dWORD 0 f d

    In both cases, restart Windows.

    After that, the PC should attract little or no power after you turn it off - but it will take more time to start.

    Good luck

  • My macbook pro battery will not hold a charge

    My macbook pro battery will not hold a charge. I took in an Apple reseller and claimed him install a new battery. He said that my battery was still good. I asked him to install a new battery just to have a brand new machine. With the new battery installed, the computer still will not hold a charge for very long. I got the Apple dealer and he ran several tests without conclusive results. I always have a laptop that will not hold a charge and must be connected to use for any period of time. Can anyone offer a solution? Thank you.

  • Satellite A60 - Battery will not hold a charge

    Recently, my A60 Satellite 1 years stopped to load completely. If connected to the power supply, it works fine, but the battery not hold a charge at all and register under the 0% charged. Therefore impossible to use the 'portable' unless it is connected to the power supply. It was working fine, then suddenly one day stopped working!

    Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on what we can do? (preferably without replacing the batteries - a little more than a way of years out of warranty of course)

    Thank you

    Hello

    This looks like a dead battery. The fact is that you can charge the battery about 500 times. After this period, the battery is dead or loose performance immediately.
    I think that the only chance to solve this problem is to replace the battery.

  • BlackBerry Torch 9850 smartphones can't hold the charge after OS update

    I updated my blackberry last Wednesday with the latest OS (7.1), and since then my phone will not hold a charge.  I started noticing this Thursday, and it got progressively worse.  A full charge will last 4 hours.  I changed the battery for a new one, but nothing helped.  The phone will not hold a charge.  He, however, still will load with two batteries (old and new) and after it is loaded (after having been totally dead) it lights, etil connect to Blackberry desktop software.  It will not just hold the load.  Please help... What can I do?  Note: I live in the Mexico and have no warranty, so I can't return the phone.  So please, someone help with ideas that do not include getting a new phone, if possible.  Thank you!!!

  • 4th gen Apple TVRemoteWon can't hold a charge

    Recently my ATV 4 distance began to unload completely in just a few days, rather than the promised several weeks and as he recently are someone else has this problem?

    I called Apple support and they sent me a new replacement. It works very well in all its forms, but also will not hold a charge more for about a week or two. I found it completely discharged tonight, such that it wouldn't work at all, even if I've completely charged about two weeks ago.

    It is now clear that this should not be the fault of the remote, but maybe some correlation between this one and the Apple TV itself. He would have to do with a Bluetooth problem? In the menu of the ATV, I saw that it had detected the Bluetooth entry to my TV, but that it was not connected. It is trying to connect and wasting energy? I do not have direct control over the TV Bluetooth, but it controls via the Apple TV 4 using the HDMI-CEC capabilities that work well.

    I had 4 ATV for nearly a year. It has always worked well, and this remote discharge problem only started a few weeks ago. I brought no changes to system before this problem appeared.

    Any ideas on why the two remotes in a row see this problem in my system?

    Have to introduce any other electrical devices in the room. Is there anyone in your household who might be using the remote control for the games.

  • the number of CT of my HP laptop battery can provide the serial number. my laptop lost

    This no's take me to the serial No. to track my laptop?

    Unfortunately, given the information of the original battery will not help.

    The battery has its own serial number and is not related to the laptop, except that it's a compatible part for your laptop and others in the same series of model.

    If you still have the box of that your laptop has been delivered, it must be a serial number thereon as well as a bar code.

  • Satellite Pro A10 battery won't hold a charge

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A10. I used it for a few years on AC power only. I tried to use it on battery, but I don't have that about 5 minutes before switching to standby mode. She descends slowly from 100 percent to about 96 percent then powers. When I plug directly support I have only 3% of the power.

    I thought if I totaled the battery, so I bought a new, but the same thing happens.

    Do you think that my new battery is duff too?

  • My iPad will not hold a charge and won't

    My iPad is showing a red - battery flat. If I connect it to the charger, it tries to go - see the white Apple logo and about 30 seconds later it turns off, but in another 10-15 seconds, it shows once again the flat red battery and the cycle continues indefinitely - red battery Logo - Logo - Off - red of the battery... Help, please.

    A few options.

    your battery is toast and can't hold a charge.

    Your charger may not give the battery what suits him so it cannot load.

    The cable is not making a good connection for recharging.

    Make sure that you use an iPad, not an iPhone, one charger. iPhone Chargers put only half as much power as the iPad ones.

    If you have another charger and cable, those Exchange and see if your iPad will charge. Be aware that if you are up to the Red level of the battery, it will take at least half an hour for your device be used.

    Also, look in the loading port and make sure that it is clean. As silly as it may sound a piece of lint can impede charging. Make sure that the contacts on your charging cable are clean.

    If you can try another charger and cable and your iPad still hold a charge then the battery can be turned. (they have a limited life span)

    You can contact your local apple store or service provider authorized and put in place an appointment to have the battery checked and possibly replaced. The tax is around $ 100 unless you have Apple care. If you do, and it's within the warranty period, replacement can be free.
