PC not start just enter what seems to be the mode 'sleep'

Hi all

So this weekend my Alienware x 51 cut out on me then that play a game, basically then ran the power cut and he tried not to restart itself.

Tried to feed this back on the new fan and the display on the side of light flashed went for a second and nothing, no windows, no beeps, no nothing.

The button power, but is sitting with a low light, like when you see when standby mode. Try again by pressing the power button nothing, button, nothing. literally this things won't answer anyway.

Take off the Panel before checking inside, everything seems to be sitting very well. The temperature inside was warm but not overlapping to the point of overheating, cleaned the fans anyway.

Left it so a couple of hours without power plugged him give the chance to cool if necessary, tried to put it on same as usual, nothing.

There is nothing other that the power supply is connected, the brick has green light, then nothing power related as far as I can tell.

Does anyone else have this problem? I work with in there myself and have never encountered a problem like this. Checked most of the bases (will check the fuse in the plug) but without any reference of the machine to say what is wrong, I am puzzled at the moment, any idea would be appreciated.

Alienware-Michelle, Hi

Open the folder and removed the graphics card holders, one of heatsink bugs had broken some how and causing the heatsink to be dislodged. A simple PIN broken plastic was the cause.

Now ordered replacements, which was not easy to find at all. I hope that they are the right size and that should fix it.

Thanks for your help

    I would like to point out something that you may not realize: Windows 8
    has two interfaces; the modern/Metro Interface (which may be all the)
    you have looked at) and the traditional desktop Interface. You can use
    one or both. This traditional desktop Interface is almost
    identical to the interface of Windows 7. the biggest difference is that
    There is no Orb start clicking to bring up the start menu.

    But note that you can get the ORB start by using one of the many
    third-party programs, are free or very cheap (the classic interface
    http://classicshell.sourceforge.NET/ and debut8 to
    http://www.stardock.com/products/start8/; my personal preference is
    Debut8, but they are both very good).  And goes from an interface to
    the other is very easy; There are several ways, but simply by pressing
    the Windows key is perhaps the easiest.

    Just install one of these two and using the traditional desktop computer
    interface may be a better choice for you than going to Windows 7.
    I use Windows 8, almost exclusively with traditional workstations
    the interface and with 8 Start installed. If you were to look at and use
    my computer, you may have a hard time realizing that it is not
    Windows 7.
    I also recommend to read "how to make Windows 8 or 8.1 watch and.
    Want Windows 7 "to http://www.howtogeek.com/elk/298/45121/4206
    I can't address the issue with your games, except to say that
    whenever you move to a new version of the operating system, some of
    which is used to run on the former does not work on the new. And it's
    much more likely with utilities and games with companies
    applications.

    You have probably installed a 64 bit version of Flash for Firefox plugin.

    Firefox is a 332-bit application, so you need 32-bit versions of a plugin to make it work.

  • SP U400 - cannot return to the desktop after entering in the mode 'sleep' by closing the lid

    Satellite Pro U400 V-11 I used for a week. I don't know if this is a problem or I did something wrong. My setting of closing the lid is recording mode "Eve" in Vista.

    When I close the lid and open a few minutes later it's ok, I see the password login screen. But if the computer is in "sleep" for a while it does not return to the office when I lift the lid. The screen is black. Fan started working then quiet several times.

    The first three LEDs on the left are green. Keyboard does not respond. And also switch / stop does not work either I press once on or hold it. And only after I unplug the power adapter and press the power, it works. But it restarts the system and Windows could not close correctly the error message is displayed.

    Is this normal or something wrong with the mode 'sleep'?
    Thank you

    Hello

    I read on some of the similar problems regarding "standby" mode and the black screen.
    Someone suggested to update the BIOS and the display driver

    So I highly recommend it too much
    See the European driver of Toshiba page, choose the model right for laptop and try to update the BIOS, then the display driver.

    Reboot the laptop and see if the problem still occurs.

    Good luck

  • Vista does not start, fails to Startup Repair indicating that the version of the operating system is incompatible with Startup Repair tool

    I use a laptop Dell XPS M1330, under Vista Home Premium 32 Bit. The laptop froze, I tried to do a system restore, which did not work. Now the laptop goes into startup each time put on repair. A message window appears saying "Startup Repair cannot repair the computer automatically. Startup Repair window says "Startup Repair could not detect a problem. Diagnostics details say: Root cause found: the operating system version is incompatible with Startup Repair tool.

    I tried to use the Dell Factory Image Restore to restore the system, but it does not end. I get an error message instead. There is no details, it's just a small window with an X and the Word error.

    I also tried to use resettlement Dell DVD, but that doesn't seem to work either.

    Vista does not start at all, not in either safe mode.

    I just ran to the Dell Diagnostics tool, and that is to say that the integrity test of memory has failed... No idea how to solve this problem?

    I'm at a loss and helps woukld be appreciated.

    Hi James,

    Ø are you using the correct version of the Vista disc to run Startup Repair?

    I suggest to run the diagnostic tool memory WINRE mode and check if the memory (RAM) installed on the computer works fine.

    Follow the steps below to start the computer using the WINRE and run the memory diagnostic tool.

    A. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc.

    B. restart your computer.

    C. Si you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

    Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

    D. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

    E. click on repair your computer.

    F. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

    G. in the menu system, SelectMemory diagnostic tool Recovery Options.

    Once scanning is complete, check to see if the problem is resolved.

    Access the link below to learn more about Windows recovery options in Windows Vista.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-I-know-if-my-computer-has-a-memory-problem

    If you have several sticks of RAM installed on the computer, you can try to remove one of the RAM stick and check if it works very well. Also, you try to exchange the RAM sticks and check if one of the RAM is originally this issue and if it needs to be replaced.

    Note: If you are not aware of the evolution and swaping the stick of RAM on the computer, it is best to contact the computer manufacturer for help on this and you can do it at your own risk.

    You can also contact Dell support and check if you need to replace any hardware.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

  • M17x R1 does not start - black screen - fan turns, turns on the keyboard, nothing on the screen.

    Hi all

    Newbie here and desperate.

    I have a problem with M17x my son this morning. Everything worked very well and after some time, turned off the machine it self.  Now it does not start even - at least I think, it won't because there is nothing on the screen as it is empty.

    I've tried several things, including trying to move on and outside, with or without a battery of the power cord.

    I'm at a loss as to what could have happened.

    Help, please.

    The gpu of cooking is very easy in fact, that you have designated your oven to about 275 degrees cover a cookie sheet with paper and configure the map out of it by winding 4 balls of aluminum foil and their definition on each corner of the map. you never want to have it put all directly on the sheet. do Cook for about 10 minutes then cool before coming back into the laptop. Always be sure to remove all of the components and the radiator and any residue of thermal paste. After sick cooking you need to reapply a fresh thermal paste. I use artic silver 5. It is has more detailed instructions on this online, as well as photos. You want to make sure it's your video card before you do it just to be sure. I just had to do it again last week, works like a charm for me every time.
