Locked after laptop docking

I use a PC laptop Dell and dock at work, and I take my laptop home every night.  Yesterday, when I got in I have connected my laptop and got to the login screen.  On my first newspaper in an attempt to the computer I locked for 15 minutes.  Once I waited 15 minutes, I was able to connect with no problem.  I tried to reproduce the problem to the it team, but no matter what I did the question would not happen again.  I shut the laptop down, undocked / reconnect, start it.  I was able to log in without any problem.

This morning I arrived (took my computer laptop home last night) and re-connected my laptop.  The issue was back.  I don't know what is the origin of the problem of the home and work.  I use a VPN to connect to work stuff when I'm at home.  I checked my cell phone that I use sometimes to check e-mail.  The password that is the same password that I use to log on to the laptop.  I know that can cause a conflict if those who do not, but this isn't the issue.

I am at a loss as to why he keeps it doing.

You IT support team is in a much better position to solve this problem as the interviewees forum. Its members have access to your machine. Respondents in the Forum are not. If they can't get out, then they should raise the issue in a TechNet forum.

  • My laptop locked after I use it for several minutes.

    Hello world

    I have a really annoying problem.

    My laptop is locked after I use it for several minutes.

    When I say locked, I want to say it is the place where shows my account name and below it says locked.

    As a first step, I think it is caused by the automatic locking of cuz I'm really annoyed by this last, I uninstalled it.

    However it still does not.

    Could someone tell me what the problem is on the Earth?

    It's maybe just because I really don't know with my new laptop.

    It's a power setting that determines how long before its entry in the screen saver, sleep more, or even in hibernation mode. You can change the requirement for a password (somewhere in the Windows screen saver section) or the duration before entering these modes (you should be able to define with the Lenovo Power Center thing). Of course, making one is a security risk, but it is up to you as to how much safety or comfort desired.

  • Computer laptop screen locked after trying to download a free drawing software now can not deactivate or close the screen

    If your computer is bad, you need to do a system restore. Since it seems that you can not stop, try to hold the power button until it turns off. If this does not work, unplug (if laptop, remove the battery).

    From there on, allows to do a restore:

    1. turn the computer on and start to tap F8 to get the start menu
    2. Select repair your computer
    3. Select System Restore
    4. Follow the prompts

    If the restore point is older, feel free to use the Scan for affected programs feature to make sure that no other programs are affected. Otherwise, I would make a note of it, as it will have to reinstall these programs. In addition, I was running updated Windows once your system working again, since you will most likely use a restore point set up just before an update. (no point in re-opening of a security breach)

  • Oracle DB 11.2.0.4: Impossible to activate the table lock after having stopped it

    Hello

    I use Oracle Database 11.2.0.4.

    After reading the documentation on how to prevent unwanted table DDL statement.

    I found a way to do this in by issuing 'edit the table < table_name > disable table lock'.

    Turn it off doesn't work, however I can not re - activate.

    The error message is:

    ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified or timeout expired

    I want to activate the lock, because I need to add new columns to this table.

    I was digging on several threads that have the same problem as mine. But none of them gives any acceptable solution.

    Impossible to activate the table lock after disablng it

    ALTER table enable table lock blocking

    However, a poster responds by quoting the documentation that says: (Note: I can't find what doc says)

    'Specify the TABLE LOCK ACTIVATE to activate the table locking, allowing operations on the table DDL. All currently process transactions must commit or roll before Oracle database allows table locking. »


    By the way:

    1. the table is mine and nobody knows there are (therefore, it would be just me which undoubtedly make any DML at it, and I did not).

    2. I've disabled the lock table months ago and tried to turn it back on because I want to add the new column to the table.


    It means that I have to wait for that "ALL transactions running" happening on the current scheme being validated or cancelled?

    The table itself is located on the stops and never schema of production on which transactions take place continuously.


    Is it true that Oracle expects all execute transactions? Is it known bug?

    Why would Oracle wait as all transactions which has nothing to do with the underlying table?

    Is there no workaround solution to solve this?


    Note:

    I tried to deactivate - activate the table locking on the development database (which has less transaction) and it works fine.


    Kind regards

    Your best option might be suspended from the database. If it is an application of type OTP, it must suspend in some secinds, do your DOF, then get out. Your users should not notice. I have described the mechanism here,

  • Qosmio F750 - how to disable the user locking after the closure of the laptop?

    Hello

    I have a Qosmio laptop, F750 and I would keep it active after the closing of the screen keyboard. At the time you close the screen that the user is locked and my remote via WiFi connection does not recognize the laptop is ON more.

    I use iTunes with their Remote app to control music on the laptop and want to have the laptop running in the background with the display closed, but as soon as I do this I lose the connection.
    I disabled the hibernation in the power settings, but this only works if the screen remains open.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Which is really strange.
    When you open the power settings in the Panel on the left side you will find the option choose closing the cover. Set it to do nothing and to test it.

    > and want to have the laptop running in the background with the display closed
    Why? Leave it open. The key is that the screen is off and you can assign parameters of energy too.

  • HP Pavilion x 2 10-n011nl (Suns: laptop locked after upgrade windows 10)

    Two days ago, I bought a HP Pavilion x 2 (red sunset) 10-n011nl and immediately I started upgrading Windows 10. This medication is ok (no error message), but the first new starting system, the machine is in a loop! Only a black screen with white logo of HP and animation circular points. It is impossible to stop this, none CTRL-ALT-DEL or other. I have to wait for low battery condition (more then 6 hours!).

    And even once, he repeats the loop.

    What can I do?

    Thanks in advance

    Because it is new, maybe start to type Esc as soon as you press the button start.  That should bring up a menu before starts the boot process.  In this menu, click F11 to run the recovery.  Who will restore the PC to 'new factory' and retry the upgrade of Windows 10.  You might want to try the media creation tool page, if it fails again.

  • After the release of sleep I get a message saying: "your computer is currently locked" after 30 seconds.

    original title: disorders to restart the PC after the mode "Eve"

    I have a laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium installed. I feel in pretty serious trouble when I try to turn on the PC again after putting in mode 'sleep' (or after it is disabled due to low battery). The sequence of events following the bifurcation is as follows:

    1. I turn the PC back on.
    2. a message appears on the screen after about 30 seconds saying 'your computer is currently locked' and there nothing else do.
    3. impossible to do anything else, I force close to the PC.
    4. I turn it back on and start the PC in "safe" as mode indicated in the display.
    5. when the process is complete, I complete the secure mode by turning off the PC.
    6. I turn the PC back on. It asks me to enter the password, and the rest comes on as it should.

    So I can go back to normal after this 6-step process is completed, which is quite annoying and refused to Office 2007 as scary because even this process did not work last week that my PC has become impossible to connect to the wireless network at home, at work, etc and I was able to use my PC again only after a system recovery which was a nice surprise for me.

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards

    Dear James,

    Thank you for that comprehensive answer. I apologize for my answer, that I was busy with other things and forgot this issue for now. First of all, 1Utilisez mode"still works and that's how I'm going to return to normal operation again. It does not eliminate the problem, however. I have not yet tried the methods mentioned by you. However, I did something else as follows:
    1. I removed the password from my account (I am the administrator)
    2. I left my laptop to turn off because of low battery
    3. I restarted the laptop

    And I managed to find a normal operation. I intend to use my laptop without password, I don't want to face the same problem again. (I guess that the problem will resurface if I started using a password again.)

    In both instances separated last week, I noticed also that my computer started a validation file of three steps and the process of compacting the files immediately after I put on. They went well. I'm not sure, however, they were of no help to solve the problem. My feeling is that they were not.

    Thanks again for your time.

  • C:\ drive locked after update of Windows 8

    Earlier this morning I went to turn on my computer (Custom built Asus with Windows 8. Pro 64 - bit), I was greeted with the BSOD saying "a problem occurred" without any technical information. After a while he started finally to the "Boot Menu" he wouldn't let me refresh or reset the PC saying that the 'hard drive has been locked', most of the other startup options will not work. So I took out the hard drive and attached to my laptop (I have a SATA USB cable). He said I need to format the hard drive before accessing the drive, also "disk management", says the Partition type was 'RAW '. I didn't lose my data, so after a little more research, I put in a disc of Windows 7 and selected "Repair PC" and let it solve the problem. He said something like "repair hard disk. I let it run for a few hours, when it was done I took the drive and restarted my computer. It started normally with the windows logo 8 but when that ends, he goes to a black screen. I went to the "Boot Menu" but now he allowed me to update my computer. So, I updated my computer. This is where my current problem started. Once the update the computer restarted, he gave me a choice of two operating systems to open two of them saying "disk 1 of Windows 8. I chose the other and he went to the login to my profile screen. I logged in and it started the first time boot screen. After he 'Got things ready' it opens the start menu, that had "Desktop" "Windows Store" "Internet Explorer" and "Skype" (Skype was no logo just the name and a small cross in the corner). I went to the office (where I got what looked like safe mode), which has a black background with the model number of widows 8 in the corner and the only shortcuts to my steam game that were on my other hard drive (which was already disconnected) and a shortcut called 'Deleted Applications' Internet from there , I went to my computer and tried to access the C:\ drive when I try to open it says something like "can't access C:\. "I took the car back out and plugged into my laptop where I get the same message. That's where my expertise ends. A great help.

    Thanks for the help-
