Power failure problems

My pavillion t3625 suffered by a power failure external but also on the resumption of supplies, that I only have a permanent green led under the power socket. No other sign of life and no power show anywhere in the catch of flylead (P4, P5, etc.). I suspect the PSU 5188-2627 but would appreciate any comments or ideas for other areas to watch. Thank you.

Crayford, welcome to the forum.

Because the computer is older and so the PSU is very late in life, I agree that it might be the problem.  Here's a guide to help you troubleshoot it.  The guide is for recent computers, but the basics are the same.

  • ESX boot after power failure problems

    All, morning

    I think that this may be a simple problem to solve, but for the moment I do not know how. We had power cut which lasted longer as backup ups, where the two ESX servers has dropped recently. One came back without problem however it is not. When its turned on it gets to the boot menu, and when the normal startup mode is selected it panic the kernel with a disk error (device missing or similar - can confirm if need be).

    However, if I reboot it and select the debug mode in the start menu it starts very well, starts as usual and will run from VM. This leads me to believe that disks, files, and the BONES are fine and the problem in the config, could be damaged as a result of the unclean shutdown? I did some looking around and read a post on the repair of the boot sequence using the command: esxcfg-boot - r - could not however quantify if this was relevant in my situation or not.

    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Check UUID in /boot/grub/grub.conf:

    (1) boot VMware ESX Server UUID (root=UUID=c087c715-534d-471e-a023-!@#$%*) is similar with your server VMware ESX (debug mode).

    (2) VMware ESX Server (root=UUID=c087c715-534d-471e-a023-!@#$%*) returns with "/" inside the / etc/fstab

    p/s: while you find how u hav thought about to reinstall your esx that can be done in a few minutes.

  • Windows 7 starts problems with black screen and the cursor because of power failure

    I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS. Start-up problems arose after the power failure (accidentally unplugged the charger, the battery was not in place) during a video call in Skype. Accessories attached to the laptop at the time were a Logitech Webcam, a dongle Bluetooth, microphone and headphones.

    When starting my laptop Asus N81VP, he'll go as far as the 'Starting Windows' logo, then I meet a black screen with a mobile cursor. I don't then right click, CTRL + ALT + DELETE.

    I tried the things:

    Start Up Repair = "cannot automatically repair."

    System Restore = no available restore points

    Windows Memory Diagnostic = at 100%, no screen of detected problems, then black with mobile cursor

    Networking Mode Safe Mode/Safe = black screen with cursor mobile

    Activate video low resolution (640 x 480) = black screen with cursor mobile

    Good known Configuration = black screen with cursor mobile list

    Start Windows normally = black screen with cursor mobile

    Please help me. I've had this laptop for less than a year, and it would break my heart to have to re - format.

    You seem to have exhausted most of the options available in such cases, except two:
    D ' log in under a different account.
    -To restore your registry files manually. See below for more details.

    On your heart that could get broken: have you considered using the imaging facility that is integrated with Windows 7? You can find it in the control panel / backup and restore. This is somewhat marginal in the feature and it can be finicky, but it saved my butt several times.

    You can restore your registry files manually to a previous point through the steps described below. The process is complex and requires some careful typing. Ask a computer-savvy friend to help you if you lack experience in this field. Note that it may reset your password to a previous value.
    1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
    2. Select repair in the menu that looks like this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
    3 log in as administrator if you are prompted.
    4. Select repair when prompted.
    5. Select the command line in the menu that looks like this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7
    6. identify the correct drive letter for your Windows installation. It could be one drive other than c, but it will not X:. You do this by typing commands
    DIR C:\Win*
    Dir D:\Win*
    dir E:\Win*
    until you find the Windows folder.
    I'll call this "Q:" drive
    7 type these commands:
    CD /d Q:\windows\System32\config
    xcopy *. * Q:\MyRegBack\
    CD RegBack
    dir
    8. review the dates of the software, system, and SAM files. The files created before or after that is your problem?
    9. If they were made before the problem appeared, you can then type these commands:
    copy software / y...
    /y copy system...
    /y copy Sam...
    (the two points are part of each order)
    10. restart normally. If things don't work then you can go back by copying files from the original register of Q:\MyRegBack to Q:\Windows\System32\config.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Pavilion a6655f: hard drive or power supply problem?

    A few days ago, I was trying to low loading part of the steam.  My download speed is 30 kbs, obviously not good.

    I did some basic checks, malware, viruses, etc., but did not find any problem.  I did a diagnostic check and got a BIOHD-8 error code, which indicates a hard drive problem.  I decided to try to reset the computer back to the factory setting before changing the hard drive and once that I made and updated windows Vista for several hours, I restarted the diagnosis and he came clean.  Then I updated my software, including steam and a few games.  Downloads were fast and had no problems.  Later that night the computer started to shut down randomly, and I was unable to run any games.  Thinking it's maybe a power supply problem, I have replaced my graphics card with an elder who needs less energy.  I am able to run without any problems so far.  So, I'm looking for help in identifying my problem.  HDD problem, power supply, something else?  Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Hard to say without proper trials.

    You can use a hardware monitor HW Monitor to monitor tensions it is: http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html
    But there is no software that can test a power supply.

    You can get a tester of hardware like this too: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16899887005

    But there is really no of it will predict fails if the power supply, if you overloaded it, if its duration in time high, or if the power supply is a device of poor quality that can be subject to failure.

    You can also check that your power cable is comfortably installed on the computer and not frayed.  Try a different wall jack where there are fluctuations in power.
