My HP Pavilion zv5240 running WindowsXP SP3, its power off suddenly by itself after running for 20-30 min. eventhough works on economy mode. What is going on?

This could be an overheating problem.  If your CPU overheats, then the power will suddenly cut to your computer.  Boot safe mode starts with less processeses and running tasks and so your computer can run more fees.  Since you get 20 to 30 minutes, the way to check this is to download and run freeware 'CoreTemp '.

<>http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/ >

It displays the temperature of your CPU and show you if it is not too hot before you stop.

The two main causes of overheating are fans of CPU does not and a build-up of dust in your computer that acts as a blanket and causes overheating.   If overheating is your problem, open the case, check the appropriate fan and buy a can of compressed air to blow the dust bunnies.

Another possible cause is bad RAM (memory) memory modules.  Try to remove and re - insert your RAM modules.  There are also tests of RAM, you can run - although they tend to be CPU, so you won't know if you have a RAM problem or a problem of temperature.

  • I tried to open a bookmark and its opening in an active window, such as an image, not a separate tab or window. What is going on?

    I had problems with Firefox hanging (seems related to Flash on a particular Web site). During his last hours of troubleshooting, including on the phone with the assistance of my ISP, it was recommended I "Refresh" of Firefox. I've done it before, and I did it yesterday again. This morning I opened Firefox to my homepage (my ISP Portal), checked my email, disconnected from the email, this tab closed, open two other forums and Photobucket - three tabs open in the window - to post pictures and contribute to the discussions in the forums. Once completed, I've disconnected from forums and Photobucket, each firm separately tab, and then quit Firefox. (While in Photobucket, Flash has crashed several times... but this is not unusual with Photobucket in my experience. It's a different problem, I always deal with... but he immediately forgets...) As part of "Refresh" yesterday, I set Firefox to clear the cache and cookies and other files to quit.

    Later in the day today, I opened Firefox, portal of my ISP opened as usual and expected (my "Home page"). Sometimes, instead of close the window/tab, I just open a bookmark and it will open in the same window, but by replacing the previous window and its contents. I.e. the procedure normal functioning for me. You know, rather than having two windows open where I have to close one, I have just the bookmark opens instead of the original content of the window.

    Today (and it happened before today, but rarely), open the bookmark page as if it was a picture in the active window... otherwise said, my ISP Portal occupies about 3/4 of the window, but more on the left side of the window (not another tab or a window, but in the same window) is a thin view bookmark page. This new web page - quite foreign to the original page - has a scroll down bar, but can be made to fill the window... the previously opened web page acts as a barrier to the pleasure of the 'new' image/web page. While I can understand the right border of the "new framework" and drag it to the right, he still cannot push the 'old' web page of origin of the road... the old page reached a minimum limit and I get a split screen of two completely different websites mode contained in exactly the same active window.

    The 'new' frame has an 'x' at the top right, so I could close... but my question is, why it is opened in web page/window...how from a completely different company can two web pages from completely different organizations/companies/websites are the same active window in Firefox? I have... attached screenshots. And, oh yes, not to mention that the HOW and WHY, how can you prevent (or is the best thing to just right click and open in a new tab or window...?) Which is not always convince me... I am someone who needs to know WHY something happened that should not have happened. It drives me crazy when something strange happens and the 'solution' is to change MY behavior. (You know, like if YOU were the problem, but I need to change MY behavior Instead of correct what's wrong with YOU... When YOU could make all of the obsolete situation.)

    Thanks for everything you can suss out...

  • Pavilion 6654: 6654 update video card/power HP

    I'm interested in upgrading my video card for an ATI Radeon HD 4200 to a course "EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0 + 2 GB memory GDDR5 128 bit PCI-E 3.0 Dual-Link DVI - I, 3 x DP, SLI, HDMI and HDCP, G-SYNC ready graphics 02G - P4 - 2966 - KR.  This graphics card will suit for my cpu and will work properly with the motherboard?

    I'll add 4additional giggabites to increase the total memory (RAM) to 8 GB so connected.

    And besides, I will buy a 400W power supply.

    Will this work for my current 6654 Pavilion?

    You are welcome!  Thank you for the additional information.

    As I suspected, your computer has a standard BIOS.  This means that you can buy an older video card.  I love EVGA products.  I suggest to find a card you like and contact Tech Support from the manufacturer (Technical Support EVGA 1-888-880-3842) in order to ensure that it will work on your computer.  It is the best way I found to do not have to make a return.  The last card done EVGA used a standard BIOS was their 640 GT.  Some of them have a update for the VBIOS that allows them to run with a standard BIOS.

    Now for the power supply (PSU).  I love Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.  This allows for future updates.  A modular power supply is good for smaller cases.  Simply use the required cables, allowing a better air circulation.  You must measure the existing PSU and compare the measurements to the one you choose.  All connectors must be compatible.

  • HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.

    HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.  Cannot get it to boot Windows.  Any thoughts on next steps?

    I remove the hard drive and attach it to your desktop and use the host operating system to run a check disk on your drive.  The laptop goes hard disk looking for instructions to start and he does not see the correct code.  This is probably due to a damaged boot sector.  Another idea is that your bios has changed and you have changed the SATA from AHCI to IDE type somehow or vice versa. You also left a non bootable disk in the DVD/CD drive.  Remove all disks from your DVD.

  • Dell Dimension E521 starts and stops on its own at random times... a lot of attempts to repair/restore without success! What's next!

    Well, it's a bit of a long story, so I'll try to make it as short and easy as possible.

    My grandmother had the Dell Dimension E521 for some time in December of ' 06.  She had filled the C: drive with a bunch of junk and mandated the bureau with many useless shortcuts.  Later in November 10, she told me he had begun to stop and start on his own time at random, so I tried to do what I could with antivirus scan (AVG Free Edition), remove applications and unnecessary programs and try to demand for system recovery short.  While that makes the computer run faster, it still started and closed on itself.  His house has only the dial-up connection (which is almost impossible to update anything), so I brought it to my house for the best connection around 01/01/11 (9 days ago).

    I could update the AVG Free Edition and Windows updates, and it found and cleared, a Trojan Virus.  The Dell still started and shut down on its own.  My next step was to use the disc re - install for Vista Home Basic 32-bit.  He old programs saved in a folder "Windows.old" on the C: drive and completely re-installed everything back to the original.  After I checked in the "Windows.old" folder and recorded something she didn't lose (such as images and videos), I deleted as much as I could out of it.  The only thing I could not remove from it was 4 'driver files '.  For a while the computer trying to run 'chkdsk' on its own seizure began, but froze in the middle of it.  He finally ended the 'chkdsk' once and didn't try again since.  It downloaded and installed updates Windows of 100 or more on its own as well.

    After all, it still does the same thing he has with housing starts and shut downs.  The closure of downs occur not just in the middle of the execution of a given program; they occur at any time at random, even if I use the computer in safe mode.  She always goes through the whole stops the process with the "logging off" and "closing" legends, it is not as if the electric system is down.  The start-up occur randomly as well, even if a stop is purposely through the Start Menu or hold down the power button.  Sometimes, he's trying to start and shut down on its own several times without fully load.

    Again, sorry this is so long, but I would like to know if there is anything that can be done to get this thing to CUT IT OUT because my grandmother wants as his computer back!

  • Business rule running for the single member of the entity Dimension

    Hi all

    I'm developing an application of classical planning using Hyperoin 11.1.2.2

    I came across a scenario where a specific business rule is executed when the data are recorded on a specific data form. (IE run save the data form item)

    Currently, this rule executes all Member of the entity Dimension.

    Is it possible that this rule is run only for one member of the entity (that is currently selected in the Section Page of this form of data)

    Please note: I don't want to use run the guests of time i.e. I don't want my user to explicitly specify which Member of the entity in the RPT. In our its obvious business logic this business rule is only required to run for the member selected in the entity Dimension

    You must create a Variable of RTP of the type member, when you associate this rule save this form of data, select the option use members on forms of data and hide guests in this way you don't get the window prompt and BR will perform for a specific entity.

    See you soon... !!

  • Hello! My AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g) lights no more. I think he lost his power. What should I do to restore its power?

    Hello! My AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g) lights no more. I think he lost his power. What should I do to restore its power?

    If AirPort Express light does not illuminate, this indicates that the internal power supply inside the Express did not, and the device will need to be replaced.

    If you really a 802.11a/b/g in the Express version, it is at least 8 years old and probably much older than that.  Average life of this product was about 3-4 years, then you have had surprisingly good luck with your product.

    Hi Breda49

    iTunes purchases (free downloads are taken for granted) are permanently linked to the Apple that was used to buy ID.

    To work around this problem, you can set up sharing of family and your child. This will allow you to share all your purchases.
