• Maintenance of Windows 8 and will not sleep

  My lenove h505s which is 3 months old has installed windows 8.  Everything has been fine up until about 2 weeks ago it started doing maintenance and this interview will not end.  This seems to be produced at the same time that the computer will not sleep.

  The screen turns off after 10 minutes, but the computer does not turn off and should be 25 minutes.

  I'm sure that the maintenance is now awake and even if you stop the interview, I don't know that because an interview is necessary, stop the sleep of PC.

  I'm afraid this is going to damage that the fan runs all the time when not in service.

  Any advice would be appreciated

  Thank you

• Satellite U400 won't turn on & when we will not sleep mode

  I have a Satellite U400 and is a year and a few months.

  In the last few it was in place, and it started when the computer goes to sleep and goes to the black white screen, it will not fall.
  The only way to do anything is held in the power up to what it turns off and then back on. This brings me to the warning screen that I turned off my computer incorrectly. It was actions also for a few weeks and randomly started unexpectedly.

  Then just today it does at all, I was pressing the power button and the key itself would be lit up and on the right side of the small lights would light up but don't turn on, I kept pressing it again and again and again and finally it turn on. Once on, I used only for a few minutes before turning off again and then do the same thing, I kept pressing the bottom until it works. Its been on now and has not extinguished again.

  There not in the newspaper I had to reformat my computer because I forget my password and had put me out of the computer. About a week after that is when the problems started. I'm not all that clever computer, to be honest, I do not understand something of things, I can follow step by step to do something.

  I really want to pay to have it fix I just want myself and as soon as its in great shape and never had any problems before.

  Does anyone have any idea what this might be, or why it might be?

  I think about reformatting again because I'm worried that didn't work right the 1st time or something.

  Or if it's something that needs fixing someone have any idea on the cost of it?

  Thanks ^_^

  Hi aev270,
  sounds like a serious problem for me.
  Try the following: take out the battery, cd-rom, hard disk, and then try again.
  If it starts without this items - you lucky!
  This means that it is probably a software problem (but I think not - sorry)
  you see the toshiba logo / messages from the bios? No - the you're in trouble.
  This strange behavior may depend on many things: defektive components such as ram, grafics... nor (badest) motherboard...
  If you have still warranty on this subject, you should go to a having servicepartner check installation.

• ST2410 will not 'sleep' with HDMI

  I noticed a few other people in product reviews also mention this problem but I can't find that someone posted a fix. When my Dell ST2410 monitor is connected to my video through the HDMI connector card it will not completely sleep when the fact of the computer. The small "No. HDMI Detected" warning box (in color) floats around the screen as a screen saver. What's up with that? I have not tried VGA but when connected with the DVI cable, unless it goes into power save and "standby" mode fail. What's up with that? Anyone?

  Thank you! nyteshade!

  Hi Chris,

  I'm glad you guys are here. I had the same problem, or you can a little more weird and resolved after seeing the solution in this thread.

  I have 2 Dell ST2320L numbers, purchased in Dec 2010 and the other in March 2013. I liked the first one so much I couldn't even thought to update when I had to buy another :)

  The problem appeared with the first when then we came. Actually the first was attached to my PC all the time with DVI and I had no problem. Then I thought set up a small TV in my room and got the DTH HD connected to ST2320L so that audio connected directly from monitor with less clutter, so you do not get a TV of this resolution at this price (prove me wrong), and I was still using only the HDMI speakers and external, so that's all I needed.

  It's so fascinating that I removed the motherboard audio and used from PC monitor as well (less), of course, I had to connect to HDMI instead of DVI that I used. And, from there, I got the big don't flutter problem "NO cable HDMI atatched" whenever my screen was supposed to go off (I have it also down 2 minutes, I work from home and let the PC all the time, so this would save energy). HDMI was provided by Dell only with an Inspiron notebook. Then I saw this thread and tried the one provided by the DTH provider and it worked like charm.

  So here's the 2 cables one who worked and which did not.

  Did NOT work (Supplied with the laptop Dell Inspiron)
  Byte E119932-T * BHC78PE of 2 METRES of CABLE AWM STYLE 20276 80^oC 30V VW-1 HDMI1.3

  Worked (Supplied with the box of DTH)
  High speed HDMI^TM cable AVLV2 AWM STYLE 20276 80^oC 30V VW-1 ProgTech

  Note that, by "worked", I hear only the day before. The two cables carried the video and Audio without any problem, the difference was that the sleep mode is detected incorrectly as the cable is disconnected. Who noted quite rightly by Chris.

  I hope this helps for other readers. Your monitor has no problem, it's just your cable. Try the one above the HDMI1.4 (High Speed HDMI) and not HDMI1.3. I guess this has nothing to do with the quality provided by my DTH provider is pretty cheap looking and thin while one that came with Dell Inspiron is award-winning very looking, thick, soft, long, and with connectors Golden which melt in 2 or 3 years.

  Thank you!

• Windows 8.1 will not sleep and error when restarting - DRIVING ME INSANE

  Hi guys,.

  Since the upgrade to Windows 8.1, my laptop never sleeps, now I updated the graphics drivers and it seemed to solve the problem but now it's back to not sleep well again and then just restarts my laptop and take 20 seconds or more to start again.

  When I wake my laptop Inspiron 15R SE 7520 after hibernation an error message with the blue screen "" thread_stuck_in_device_driver".

  All the drivers are updated according to Device Manager. I also left the HOMEGROUP.

• ProBook 450 G0: 10 Windows will not sleep or Hibernate or start properly

  Hello!

  Hello!

  Recently I did a clean install of windows 10 and I have a problem I forgot my past experience with this version of windows: my system is unable to go to sleep (or he can't wake mode 'sleep') or Hibernate.

  Example of situation: I put the system to sleep, it shuts down (the power button blinks always - it's what he does when the laptop is in sleep mode) and when I press the power button (or click on my mouse) system does not. Either he starts as a fresh start (as no "sleep mode" has never been there) or the screen goes black, stay like that for a while and then stops (and, of course, when I open it again it is like a new beginning).
  I never met such a problem on all other versions of windows. I did almost (if not all) of the suggestions and tutorials on the internet about it. The BIOS is up to date, so is my driver chipset with the rest of my drivers. Is it possible to fix this? It's the only thing that will make me return to windows 7.

  HP ProBook 450 G0 with:

  Intel Core i7-3632QM

  Graphics Intel HD 4000 / AMD Radeon HD 8600 / 8700M

  8 GB RAM

  SSD 240 GB KINGSTON SV300

  PS: I found this link where I discovered that the decommissioning of the bios to an older version would work, but I can't find versions older for my laptop.

  I have not upgraded to Windows 7 to 10. I did a clean install and I manually installed the drivers for the AMD and Intel video hardware.

  I found how to solve this problem by making this upgrade of repair: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/wiki/insider_wintp-insider_install/how-to-perform-a-repair-upgrade-using-the-windows/35160fbe-9352-4e70-9887-f40096ec3085
  Someone who has the same problem, I had perhaps try this method, as any other internet method did not work for me.

  Thanks anyway for your answer!

• T61 with Win 7 RTM will not sleep on the current, will sleep on battery

  You wanted to start a new thread on this since the similar to the previous thread presents the beta version of Windows 7 and other issues while I and at least one other people have this same problem with Win 7 RTM.

  My T61 (8891-CTO) won't go to sleep / suspend when it is plugged into the current running Win 7 RTM and the current drivers Win 7 Beta.   It will be put into hibernation on current alternative.  He'll sleep / suspend very well when it's on battery.

  When the current alternative, the display dims when I try to sleep, but it will never actually suspend.   Move the rear mouse lights up the screen and gives the Windows login screen.

  Like everything else works very well and sleep works on battery but not AC, I have to assume that it is a driver problem.

  Any help appreciated.

  Thank you

  Michael

  I realized what was causing the problem on my system, so maybe this will help someone else.

  The Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service prevented my T61 to sleep.  I stopped and disabled this service.  Sleep works fine now.

• My computer will not sleep, the display shuts off for a while but the fan still works and the keyboard lights stay on, and then eventually he dies just

  Imen quite so much as the title, when I try to put my computer to sleep the screen turns off but the computer is still running. My computer is a HP pavilion dv6 is a little more than 3 years. He used to do whenever a while, but now it's every time I try to pause. I'll close the top cover, but the fan still works, the hp on the lid logo light remains lit, and if I reopen it cover the power light is always on and the lights on the keyboard caps lock and wireless keys. The same actions occur when I try to put it to sleep manually (from the start menu). It does not at all I have to do another that now hold power, but even when I do nothing, it will stay here like this for awhile and then just turn off completely.

  When it starts up, it gives me the options to start in safe mode or start normally, and when I am connected and it gives me the "windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown", I see that there is a minidump file in windows that has something to do with it. I tried to search for the file and the problem together, and then each separately, but nothing I've seen described really my problem, so I thought I should just ask on my problem.

  I read what made other people, changing advanced power settings, changing the media settings, etc. and did those things, but to no avail. It's not a huge deal, because I can just turn off my computer whenever I'm done with it for now, but I don't know if it's a bad omen for the future of my poor computer. So if someone could give me a hand with this point in mind, I'd be very happy. Let me know if provide more details (OS, processor, my favorite color, social security number, etc.) that would make it easier to solve. Thank you
  Also, either by the way, if this is in the wrong forum topic, please let me know.

  If you use a wireless keyboard or mouse to your computer, these items can keep your computer enter standby mode automatically because they constantly send a signal to the system, thus preventing downtime. An optical mouse (that changes color) causing a similar problem.

• M91p ((modèle 4524) will not sleep)

  Hi - I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem - I got a M91p Tower (model 4524) for a couple of years - has decided to upgrade to Windows 8.1 and operate using the UEFI.

  I installed Windows 8.1 with the game to the mobo in the UEFI but cannot get the system to correctly put it to sleep. When I select sleep the screen turns off but power light stays on (instead of Flash) and all the fans (CPU, system and PCU) keep turning constantly. Only way out is to press and hold the power button for a few seconds until that everything goes off then re - start the PC...

  So far, I've tried several things, including:

  1. three power supplies (the original LiteOn, a Corsair 750w and a 750w Silverstone)

  2. two x 110 SanDisk SSD and original WD HARD drive

  3 enable/disable Fast Boot in the BIOS options

  4 turn on hybrid sleep

  5 enabled fast-start up in BIOS

  6 turn the wake-up timers in Power Options

  7 turn USB suspend timers in Power Options

  8. for many generations, ensuring the all latest updates/apps for Windows and Lenovo are installed and not installed

  9. update to the latest version of the BIOS (9HKT58AUS)

  None of them made no difference, the problem remains. If I install Win8.1 with the motherboard in legacy mode, then I get a build no UEFI which works very well when it comes to sleep.

  In the case where someone asks why, I have my PC get up at night to perform various regular back-ups/copies of data to a number of other devices - I don't want to lose this functionality. Similarly, because the mobo allegedly supports UEFI, I thought it was a good opportunity to discover it clogged.

  I also tried the 'Diagnostics UEFI Lenovo tool', but get an error that it is not compatible with this version of PC. I also tried to enter the parameters of the UEFI via recovery / troubleshoot / advanced but on re-booting there is no "UEFI firmware settings" option available.

  Any help much appreciated...

  Just in case anyone else comes across this and asked what was the solution - it seems that the problem only occurs if the o/s is installed using the TPG - if so the only solution so far is to convert legacy MBR - see this full thread:

• Laptop will not sleep by itself after windows 8.1 upgrade

  HP envy 1125dx m6 model.

  Windows 8.1 by the store of windows update.

  Everything looks good in Device Manager.

  Laptop is plugged into the power saver plan.

  Configured to turn off the display for 1 minute, sleep 2 minutes.

  The computer screen turns off, as planned, but never sleeps.

  It worked until the eve of the victory 8.1 update. I use the laptop, go to lunch/dinner and find the laptop power button flashes as he sleeps.

  Used hp cat, the tech told me to disable the complaint hid wireless option in the Device Manager, also update the video card driver, but it didn't work.

  On mine I have updated the software of the chipset intel but it didn't work either. Don't know what else to do.

  Is there a log of events somewhere that shows what happens when the sleep should be raised?

  tried the following:

  leave the homegroup

  powercfg /requestsoverride srvnet system driver

  powercfg /requests shows nothing

  powercfg /devicequery wake_armed shows nothing

  still does not work

  EDIT: leave the homegroup is the solution, just be patient, the machine takes a few minutes to sleep after the scheduled time.

  You can try updating to the latest version of the BIOS available for your system. Make sure that you carefully follow the instructions to update. I also recommend that you download and install the latest video driver for your system. You can find downloads of your product to http://www.acer.com, click Help, and then drivers and manuals.
