Power moves from AC to battery at random, with a strange LED flashes code

Hi all

From time to time, on a regular basis, I'll have my laptop go battery power even if it is plugged.  When it does this, the led power and battery charge flashing start.  This happens usually after the laptop has been for a little while, but sometimes it will start to do so as soon as I turn it on.  Often, I can run just after that I have unplug the power adapter and plug it back, although it generally takes a few tries, and it is usually only a temporary fix.

Really, I just want to know what it means when the two leds blink.  I could not find this combination in textbooks or anywhere online.

I have a HP Pavilion dv8000 (dv8310us) Windows XP.

I appreciate the ideas.

Yes, I think he fixed it.

I went and bought a new universal power adapter a few days ago and the problem has occurred again since then.

In fact, it happened once the first time I used it, but it turns out I had the adapter put half a volt too low.  So I think the power, and load it LED two flashing simply means that the adapter does not have enough power, meaning mine was indeed that went wrong.

  • Can I use a power supply from 14 to 15 volts DC with my computer

    so I bought a p2-1013 desktop computer it has an apxd1-dm, the card mother itx micro with a continuous supply, integrated on the map.

    in the description it says it needs a 19 v dc power, but I think that the jury needs 12v and 5v to operate so the provision would naturally be able to offer both voltages to 14-15 volts.

    my questions are so

    1. the Council use something higher to 12v or need something more?

    2. is the continuous converter designed to not be able to correct the fluctuations of tension? (PWM with no correcton feedback)

    3. does anyone think this will work?

    probably a rather strange question, its for a school project.

    any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you

    1. the Council use something higher to 12v or need something more?

    No, the Council should not should eat something higher to 12volts. Common computer voltages are 12v, 5v, 3.3V and lower for the processor and the memory.

    2. is the continuous converter designed to not be able to correct the fluctuations of tension? (PWM with no correcton feedback)

    The computer is basically a laptop computer in a matter of funds. Any laptop I've owned uses a power supply AC/DC with an output of 18.5 to 19 volts DC @ about 3.5 amps.  This configuration is tested... it is known to work. The section of DC-DC on board probably includes dividers voltage and voltage regulators for most of the functions with PWM for the CPU and memory circuits.

    3. does anyone think this will work?

    Honestly, I don't think you'll have a bit of luck you try to run the computer on 14-15 volts DC.

    Can I rent a movie from iTunes and then see it on the plane?

    In principle Yes. See about renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support. Pay attention to this section:

    To watch your movie when you are disconnected, as on a flight from the airline where there is a Wi - Fi connection:

    • Download the whole movie before going offline.
    • Press play to start watching. The 24 hour timer starts even if you are offline.

    You may want to download rented movies before the day of your trip to make sure you have the time to download all the content.

  • How to remove movies from the summary page

    With the help of iTunes version 12.4.  Can anyone help in my attempts to remove movies at home summary page in iTunes?  I was able to remove movies from my iPhone and iPad and unchecked on the summary in the movies tab page.  However, films controlled and deleted still appear in the section summary of movies.  Cannot find a delete any action to remove unwanted movies.  This has to do with the deletion in iTunes itself on a Windows version 10.

    Steve

    FOUND THE ANSWER!  From a previous post-, I had the same problem. You cannot remove them from the summary page. Cannot you.

    In the app iTunes on Mac or PC, without your phone, from the drop-down menu at the top left - select movies and then click on, select, Home Videos. In the next screen, select the home theater and right click. This will allow you to remove. Once you reconnect your phone and sync, the cinema will be gone from your Summary Page!

  • Remove movies from the hard drive on Macbook Air 2015

    Hello!

    I have several movies I have on my iTunes account.

    So I don't think that they would be automatically downloaded on my hard drive. I just thought that it would be similar to the Iphone you might access via WIFI but not necessarily have downloaded to your device. I'm looking for how to remove movies from your mac on other forms. None of them have asked me.

    Go to iTunes movie right click and delete it. empty the trash, restart the computer. Well by clicking on remove fair skins film of your iTunes purchases and don't take them to the reader. I still only 40 GB to 128 GB storage after the 'removal' of movies.

    They suggested also go to the finder and on the left side of the screen would be a zone of movies. No, it isn't. There's nothing to the media either.

    I'm lost and completely new for the Mac.

    Help...

    Shauna

    The movies have been downloaded via iTunes? Have you looked in the folder/Home/movies/on your computer? You can also check the folder/Home/music/and the other files in this folder to find the files downloaded.

    If you can find the films listed in iTunes, then select them and CTRL - or RIGHT click to select Remove from the context menu. We should ask if you want to move to the trash. Click on this option.

  • Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix

    Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix. It happens with other applications or when I play DVD. It begins in about 5 seconds in movies and it happens about every 4-5 seconds. The screen turns white for about a second, then it shows some horizontal lines, and it goes back to normal. And after a few seconds, he begins anew. I also noticed it always happen when I move my mouse during playback of a movie at Netflix.

    My PC is HP Pavilion 17 inch. I3 Haswel processor and Intel graphics card built-in. 8.1 to win

    I've updated all the drivers, but nothing helped.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Dmitry

    Figured out. Change refresh rate of 60 Hz 40 Hz p p and it solved the problem.

    BTW, HP helpdesk is completely useless... He does not call them – at least their 'free' in India support is completely incompetent.

  • Tecra S2 - power and battery LED flashes - no start

    G ' Day at all.

    I have a TECRA S2 under XP SP3.
    Everything was fine until I went to a place of friends with her and plugged into the power supply and it lights up not at all and no LED.

    I removed the battery and then tried again and then happen to the power and battery LED flash together, but nothing else.

    Tried several times with the battery inside and out with the same results.
    I have stabilize power before removing or installing battery.

    Do not even have BIOS or a screen. I put the HARD drive in a caddy, and it's accessible.
    See you soon

    > Everything was going well until I went to a place of friends with her and plugged to the power
    Did you use the right adapter?

    To be honest, it looks like a malfunction of the power supply motherboard maybe electronic issue of power.
    the power indicator would start flashing amber if the AC adapter voltage is abnormal or failure of computer power supply.
