P6-2388EA power failure

Can someone help or advise me please?

I bought my HP p6-2388EA in April last (it is now 8 days out of warranty) of PCWorld at Hedge End.  After 6 months, on October25th, 2013, supply does not, so I had to go back to the store for them to adapt to a new.

And guess what?  The power supply has failed again.

PCWorld told me that if I pay them £50, they will come take my machine to test the power supply and adapt to another, at a cost.  I have a little problem with that - 2 power supplies failed in 6 months make me nervous when they put the same as new.

This is the standard PSU that is installed:

My replacement in the PSU (Rosewill 530W) HP8100 and HP9200 (Rosewill 630W) are both on 24/7. If you can not get Rosewill 530w to the United Kingdom, another would be (UK link) Corsair 430w.

    Your best bet is an accumulator.  I have one I got on Amazon by EC Tech.  It is a brick, but it will charge my iPhone and the iPad, if the current is cut off.  You just need to load the brick and keep it in an emergency.

    Your SSD have lost files due to the power failure system sudden. I suggest you run CHKDSK to fix this error. Also remember, if the data stored in your SSD are important to you, then first the software of raw data as WDR pro of stellar phoenix recovery and then apply diagnoses to repair.

  • Fans always operate at high speed after power failure

    HP Pavilion Slimline S5780T - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    After a power failure a night or more recent, our Pavilion Slimline case fan and CPU fan have both run at high speed all the time, starting from the system. The level of noise is intolerable.

    I opened and cleaned all the dust from the inside of the case, including the removal of the heatsink from the CPU. Everything is clean.

    I ran the following HP Vision diagnostic, test the system, including fans. During the test of fan, the fans ran at 100%, then fell to the former level normal, quiet, then ramp back up to 100%. So says HP fans diagnostic tests are OK when there is always a problem. And it is possible for them to run at slow, normal speed.

    I installed the free SpeedFan utility, but there is not place to adjust the fan speed manually.

    How can I find the problem and the fans run at normal speed, as they did before the power failure? Everything that controls the speed of the CPU fan and the fan is broken.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Strange things happen when power flucuations or failures occur.  Most probably the motherboard has been damaged by the PPE and that is normally not as repairable by a DIY.  If you could find a newer BIOS, that to solve the problem.  Since there can be no more recent BIOS, try to remove the battery from the motherboard for the night and then put the file in and reset the BIOS to see if that helps the default value.  Otherwise, it might be repairable.

  • No sound on Satellite a series after power failure

    I had power failure and displays now the peripheral output put no audio.

    I have tried the drivers but not find.

    Any help please

    Is what model? PSA? -??????

    The audio chip may have been damaged due to advanced/power surge, requiring a motherboard replacement.

    Search for C:\TOSAPINS audio driver or download the driver here http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    You can also try a fresh install of windows. back up your data and run recovery now zero for the market. If the audio still does not work, then its most likely a hardware problem.

    Also update the BIOS, but I doubt that would help.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 Power failure

    Hello

    My satellite Pro 6100 has a power failure. While that work with the laptop will turn off by itself and the orange led on the left side.

    Is there a codelist of the blinking´s meanings.
    What can be the problem?

    Thank you
    Peter

    Hello

    The left led is an indicator of DC IN. Normally it turns green when the AC adapter DC voltage. If the s output voltage adapter is abnormal or if power outages, this indicator flashes orange. In this case I think that it s a hardware failure and you should contact Toshiba service partner assistance. However information on the LEDs and on your device, you can find in the manual of this device.

    Good bye

    You have the original installation media supplied with your machine? This would be a way: use the DVD to boot from, format the new hard drive and then reinstall the operating system. You can then update/upgrade to 10.11.

    Other than that, your model was not eligible to have its firmware updated to allow for the recovery of the internet which is the only other way I know - at least the only other way besides a bootable clone, you did before your defective hard disks.

    Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery - Apple Support

    Do not think to partition/format your new drive first.

  • Power failure causing AC adapter

    As indicated whenever I Plug and on my adapter on power point, there would be a power failure, and the trip is changed. What is the problem? And is covered by a warranty? My warranty 3 years on local warranty site, including the part and the work that is still valid with the exception of the battery (which is only a year)
    Thank you.

    Yes.

    If it trips the circuit breaker for any outlet plug in, then it is defective and a fire hazard. I do not recommend using again.

    The power adapter is also a replaceable unit of warranty. Contact HP for warranty repair.

  • Lenovo IdeaCentre Q180 behavior after power failure

    Hello

    I need a computer that automatically restarts after a power failure.
    I find nothing on the IdeaCentre Q180 behavior in such a case.

    Did the reboot of the IdeaCentre Q180 himself after power failure or is it possible to activate this feature?

    This behavior is very important for my new system.

    Thank you for your response.

    Kind regards
    Theodoor

    Hi theodoor, welcome to the forums.

    I am not personally acquainted with the Q180, but I had a quick glance in the simulator of BIOS and I am sure that the service you're looking for is available in the BIOS.

    Please see the photo attached, (too big to post), it will open in the same window, so please click on your back button on the browser to return to this site.

  • UEFI auto turn on after power failure

    I bought a desktop computer HP Pavillion PC500-225es (have a holiday home in Spain where the suffix are).

    It is running Windows 8.1 equipped a UEFI BIOS.

    I want the PC automatically restarts when power is restored after a power failure, but I don't see any option to do this in the UEFI BIOS. Is it normal for a UEFI BIOS? I have had many computers with a BIOS for old style and that I can remember all had the ability to set the auto restart after power fail.

    I don't know how a UEFI BIOS integrates with Windows 8.1 but I see no option for this in point 8.1 of Windows either.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    In addition, because the PC was bought in Spain, the BIOS is in Spanish. It seems not be anyway to change that in English, my native language. Not a big problem I can get in Spanish and may apply to the Google translate if I have to, but it would be easier if there was an option to switch to English.

    I ran the HP Support Assistant, and everything is up-to-date, there is no update to download BIOS.

    I guess I'm just stuck with the situation unless HP come with an update of the BIOS to add installation.

    Please see the BIOS for the motherboard Jasmine settings the settings you are looking for. Although this document is intended for the 'Jasmine' motherboard and your computer uses the "JasmineR', the settings should be similar if not the same thing.

    To access the BIOS Setup page... "Turn on the computer and immediately press the F10 key repeatedly, once per second, until the opening of the Computer Configuration utility."

    The following options are found in the Power Options:

    Messages POST (Power On Self Test) Turn on or off
    After the loss of power Previous state, or disable
    POSITION of delay (in seconds) Zero, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 60 seconds
