• My printer is configured to start when the computer turns on. I want to reconfigure it so that it does not turn

  My printer is configured to start when the computer turns on.  I want to reconfigure it so that it won't turn.  I know this is probably a simple change, but I can't find the path anywhere.  Any help?

  I guess you do NOT mean that you have both printer and computer plugged into the same power strip and both are turn on when you turn on the power strip.

  As nearly as I can determine the rather thin material in the Guide for the Dell P713w user, probably have enabled "Eco-Mode" or the mode 'sleep '.  See page 19 of the User Guide (if you don't have it, download it here: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/PRN_P713w/en/index.htm).

  When this feature is enabled, the printer goes into mode low power when it has been idle for a while.  When the computer is off, the printer is by definition inactive and so will go to low power, shortly after that the computer is turned off.  When the computer is turned on, it detects the presence of the printer and connects to the printer.  Apparently, the printer interprets this string as the "no-idle" and out of his low-power mode, which appears as if it is "turn on."

  In addition, this printer performs an automatic maintenance cycle every week if it is plugged into a power outlet. It will briefly exit Power Saver mode or turn on temporarily if it is disabled.

  At least one of the lights on the printer flashes power on and off when you think that the printer is turned off?  If so, it is in energy saving mode.

  Of course, I may be totally wrong, but it seems to me if you actually turn off the printer by pressing the button on / off on screen, he should not be able to auto (except once / week maintenance cycle).  From the Manual:

  Note: When the printer is turned on, press [power] to switch to the power saving mode. Press and hold [power] for 3 seconds to turn off the printer.

  Hi Majohnson,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

  1. This is not the exact model. your ASUS computer?
  2. The issue has started happening recently? If so, did you do the computer-specific changes before this problem?

  The question could arise is there some problem of corruption of pilot partners or a third party service interferes with the function of the normal keyboard. In order to diagnose and resolve the issue, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Try to start the system in safe mode and check if the number is reproduced. If this isn't the case, then clean the computer starts and check if that helps.

  Step 1:

  Safe mode is a diagnostic mode in which you are connected with only the minimal necessary services and active pilots. Check if the number is reproduced.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  Step 2:

  2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
  3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
  4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
  5. Plug in the keyboard and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

• Shared VMs fail to start when the computer reboots.

  I have a script that uses vmrun to suspend all VMs running when my Windows 8 Pro PC is shut down.  He paused the VMs correctly, however, the virtual machines shared that I set to auto-start does not auto-start.  I'm starting to wonder if I need to create a startup script similar to ensure that the departure of VMs correctly as well.

  This is the latest version of VMWare Workstation 9.0.1 build-894247.  Windows 8 regularly tells me that I have to reinstall VMWare Workstation to run.  Now, I did several times with no improvement.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I really want to try to migrate out of Hyper-V or an alternative of virtualation since I am always very happy with VMWare.

  Hi k4gdw,

  We recently found a problem that occurs when a host is upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8 while VMware Workstation is installed.  If this describes your situation, you can try to work around the problem if you are in a few registry changes on the host... (as always, be careful when you edit the registry!)

  (The instructions are for the 64 bit version of Windows. For 32 bit, it is similar, except that there is no key Wow6432Node.)

  1. open regedit (Start button + r, or search for apps for 'regedit')
  2. navigate in the tree to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > VMware, Inc. > VMware Workstation > volatile > IsFirstRun.
  3. right click on the key to IsFirstRun , and select Remove.

  Quit regedit.  Restart your host and VMs Autostart should then begin.

  Please let us know if that solves the problem for you!  We are preparing a Knowledge Base article and published a fix for future work stations.

  See you soon,.

• Node Manager does not restart the WebLogic servers when the computer starts

  Hi all
  
  I'm testing the new WebLogic Server version as well as of new forms and reports. I don't have much experience with WebLogic (using the Internet Oracle 10g Application) bare with me for a moment.
  
  I'm using Node Manager to start admin server and all the other managed servers. I also installed nodes as a Windows service manager and configured the boot parameters to include Xrs-/-Xnohup, as stated in the documentation and everything seems to work fine until I restart the server. Node Manager service starts and according to his diary, he plays startup.properties of each server, but it does not start them. Am I missing something here? I found myself in an impression that Node Manager must restart the server in case of reboot system, if the server was running when the computer has been restarted.
  Even though I don't have much experience with WebLogic, I'm not a beginner. I managed to migrate (for testing only) all the business application (more than 1000 forms and reports) of iAS 10g to the new version in two days. Application works very well and I only have problems with servers to start when the computer starts using Node Manager.
  
  Test environment:
  Windows 2008 Standard 32-bit
  RAM: 2 GB
  HARD DRIVE: THE 140 GB
  CPU: 2xXeon

• Toshiba 32RV635D does not power off when the computer turns off

  Hello

  I inherited a Toshiba 32RV635D. I have a PVR based on linux (Mythtv) connected to the TV via HDMI, connected on a Nvidia GT610.

  With my previous TV, a Vistron LCD Panel at low prices, he would go to sleep when the put PC into hibernation and light up when the PC came back.
  This required no configuration of me, he's done right. The Toshiba TV does not work.

  With this Toshiba TV, when the POR turns off the TV turns off screen but is actually still on - power led remains lit in green.

  Same thing with the other way around - if I put the TV in standby and powered the POR, the TV does not respond and I have to manually put out of Eve.

  I updated the firmware and it has not changed anything, and I can't find anything related to power management in the menus of televisions. I even tried just pulling the HDMI cable to the back of the TV so it has no physical active entry, and yet, it does not fall to sleep.

  The Amazon page for TV mentions the power management features, and I expected from what I understand, it should behave the way she.

  I read a lot on HDMI-CEC, but to use it with my existing kit, I would need to buy an adapter USB - CEC, and which seems a little odd because my previous TV not cheap-as-chips just done this...

  Also, the different uses in linux suggests considers its sounds the right - 'xset q' running when the computer is idle tells me that "the monitor is turned off" when in fact it is not.

  Clues?

  Ricklous, it can be useful if you have a look at the url
  http://www.Toshiba-OM.NET/LCD/PDF/English/Country_Specific/RV635-323742-English-specific.PDF

  If you want to download the manual of the English edition for your model, I have not read through, but it may be useful to you.

  Either by the way, I have the model 32RL900A and find only a VCR plugged into the claims of taking SCART screen every time it turns on while the TV is set to a string of FTA (Free To Air) and then 'hands back' screen when he (PVR) goes out, and this, I discovered, is a characteristic of the system SCART.

  I don't know if this information is useful to you, but hope it helps.

• VI refuses to run when the published network shared variable is not available

  I have a VI of logging data on my PC that gathers data from several sources, including several shared variable published network hosted on an RT target.

  The problem I have is that the data logger VI refuses to start if the target RT is disabled and the VI is abandoned if the network connection is interrupted.

  Is there an easy way to detect when running, be published these variable network are available and use a placeholder value, if they are not rather than the current behavior of refusing to work?

  I saw many people using data sockets, but I try to avoid the overhead of setting up and testing a loop of treatment relatively complex network on both ends when the network has published shared variables are so simple to use and works perfectly as this abnormal behavior.

  You can replace them with programmatic access (shared variable aperture and friends) and the dummy data placeholders if the variable is not accessible.
