Problem with power options

I always put my energy saver to be able to turn off my PC after 10 minutes.

Press a key or move the mouse and it restarts.

Recently he returned to power down then power on its own.

I tried several times to reset and have even reset by default and does not...

I have an ASUS and Windows 7 computer and had no problems with either until recently...

Any suggestions?

Hello

Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

 
You did changes to the computer before the show?
 
I suggest to remove the battery in case of a laptop and plug it in again and then check.
 
You can run the troubleshooter of power to set your computer's power settings. The resolution of the problems of power check things as settings timeout of your computer, which determines how long the computer waits before turning off the display or enter the mode 'sleep'. These settings can help you save energy and extend the life of your computer's battery

  • Problems with power options

    Hello

    I have a HP Compaq 6200Pro MT i5-2400 with Windows 7 pro 64-bit.

    My problem is that if I leave the computer for 10 minutes, the screen goes black (turns off). When I touch the mouse or keyboard, the screen lights up again, and I have to log in again. It's very annoying. I want to keep it all the time.

    I tried to change the power plan in the Panel, but it seems to not work. The computer is not picking up changes I make.

    I tried to change the local policy gpedit.msc-> computer-> administrative templates > system-> power with the same result, nothing changes.

    I tried to see if he has installed a software of HP power on the computer, but I can't find.

    The strange part is that if I listen to Internet radio, the computer\monitor is all the time.

    Can someone help me with my problem?

    I'm doing much better, thank you.

    If your buttons Stand By and Hibernate in the menu or shut down the computer are missing, gray out or inactive:

    The options in the menu already worked shut down correctly before?

    Have you recently installed, reinstalled, updated or repair your Windows XP?

    Has anything on your system that has nothing to with your video display or monitor?

    What do you think has happened since the last time the options in the menu to stop the computer was working normally?

    If the buttons used to work and if you have just installed Windows, reinstalled Windows, doing a repair installation, used a system restore point (or other things in that sense), you will probably need to update your video drivers as well to restore the function of the buttons.

    If the video drivers on your system are not correct, these buttons often will not work.

    Usually and easy to check and correct, is the video drivers for your system that must be downloaded to your global manufacturers Web site. Download the correct (recent) video drivers for your graphics card, install the correct video drivers, reboot your system, and then test.

    If you can not know how to check if your video drivers are correct, may not know how to get to the World Wide Web of manufacturers or can not know what to do then, maybe we can look at it for you if you provide more information.

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your version of XP and the Service Pack?  There are difficulties of hibernation in Service Pack 3, so if you do not have SP3, you must be.

    If you are not sure what you have, that:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click Edit, select all, copy and paste then return here.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete it.

    This minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork, trying things and assumptions.

  • Smart Safari search bar, problem with the option 'include suggestions for Safari '.

    Hi all

    I am facing a problem with the search bar Safari Smart of yesterday (January 26, 2016).

    The search bar doesn't work anymore, I can't type, or search or write an http address either. I can only navigate by selecting a bookmark.

    Go to preferences I have all the people with reduced mobility and the disappearance of the problem.

    Then try to isolate the problem, I've found it comes to the "include suggestions of Safari" option in the smart search options.

    Anyone had a similar problem, or have any suggestions on how to get it back to life?

    I must say yesterday, everything working, I have not installed anything new on my Mac.

    World wide phone holder

    I understand that if you remove your battery, you can't boot up your laptop.  This is not unusual. some laptops are set up in this way.

    I understand that when you have the phone connected and charge the batteries of your performance is lowered.  There is more than one draw powere when it loads to the battery.

    Here is a link to the laptops HP - test and calibrate the battery (Windows 7) to ensure that there is no problem with the battery.

    Could also remove the battery once you put under tension.

    You asked questions on the use of a 90-Watt adapter.  Here is a link to HP G4 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide.  Chapter 3 page 32 lists not one that is recommended.

    Good luck!

  • Problems with click options on the pinned taskbar programs

    Hi all

    Today, I met a strange problem with my taskbar of Windows 8. If I try to right click on one of my pinned programs in the taskbar, then select one of the options (for example right click on FireFox and select open a new private window), my laptop stops briefly and background become purple. After a few seconds the bottom will return to normal, and I'll be able to click again on programs. A left click on programs still allows me to access it. Anyone had experience with this issue? Thank you.

    Thank you! [The problem seemed to be with a recent update because the system restore fixed everything, but if it happens again, I'll be sure to try this first:]

  • Problems with the option in the corners

    I seem to have a problem in Indesign CS5 with the options in the corners. The feature does not work all the time with the "rounded corners" drop and when, so only a slight turn happens to more independently values of that type I. I also tried the manual option, and everything worked on larger forms, even in this case it is not to cut corners beyond a certain point, which means that I can't round the ends of a box entirely. Is there a limit to the round corner tool that was introduced for some unknown reason, or is there a secret method?

    You use the script? It is in the sample scripts that are installed by default. This isn't the same thing as an object > rounding Options...

  • Updates cause problems with power settings

    Since the last update flash drive, my power setting is denied.

    It's on white screen after 10 min. of no activity. After viewing something with flash player, when my screen is supposed to be empty, it white for a split second just now and to do this, every 10 minutes (the time period I put). I then go into the display properties > screen saver > power settings and reset her turn off monitor option. Can you please give me a solution for this?

    I asked this question in January and got a response to uninstall and reinstall the Flash Player (if anyone from Adobe is preparing it - file for my application number has been 181390787)
    That fixed the problem for a while (until the next update), but now it is happening again.  I can't find a way to return to the customer support portal and submit the problem again.  I can enter the portal and read my case closed, but I can't open a new one.
    This gets really annoying, I discovered a lot of video tutorials that use Flash Player and watch You-tube frequently.  Whenever I discover something with Flash Player, I have to reset my preferences of power.  I really hope someone has a solution for this, what happens now to the computer of my husband as well.  The two systems are:

    Browser: Microsoft IE 8, operating system: Windows XP Professional SP3

    Thank you

    Maybe I finally found a solution, after weeks of tests!

    Also, if you do not have a selected screen saver, you must set its longer time than the monitor turned off.

    To do this, in control panel-> display-> screensaver-> choose a random screen saver-> don't set a loooong time (example 60 min, but more and more that your monitor off time)-> select any screen saver-> and save.

    I really do not know why, just do claim that there is a conflict between flash, screen saver settings and power, but this solution worked for me!

    Let me know if fix you the problem if you read this.

    Hello

    Looks like that the power switch has developed a problem, probably about to fail.

    Whatever settings are they should be consistent and not need to several tests.

    Check with a real computer store (the one that makes its own internal and no service

    (for systems custom Integrator system and the manufacturer in the case of construction of House).

  • Strange problem with Power Saver on my Satellite M30

    My laptop connected via the mains supply, is quite well. However, when it is not connected (i.e. use it on battery), it shows 100% battery up to 90%, when I get an error window Windows "Toshiba Power Saver must be closed, you want to send an etc error report" and then my battery on the taskbar becomes critical - 3%.

    In addition, at this stage, my processor speed slows down (which is notable because applications take longer to load etc.) as if the laptop is happening in energy saving mode. I thought that maybe this is a display error, so I left the laptop on just to see - and turns off 5 minutes later!

    What is a software error or a bad battery? Any help appreciated.

    Best regards.

    Hi John,.

    I think you may have a bad battery, but just to be safe, I would recommend that you recharge the Toshiba power management software, and then check the default settings for the actions to be taken with display brightness, speed of the processor, hard drive, etc. at the various stages of the battery capacity.

    It is normal that the brightness of the screen to reduce in stages, as the battery capacity decreases, and it is also normal that the speed of the CPU to slow down as well. You can change this behavior if you want to leave in the Toshiba power management utility.

    Kind regards
