Problem with power settings during the opening of Windows Media Player 12

Original title: power options Windows Media Player Exchange

WMP 12 of opening causes the power option for monitor turn-off time to return even if the time is 2 hours 15 minutes. Tried to reset the value, value save, all electrical energy plans by making the same, nothing is done.  Other set values, for example disk hard turn off (never set) will be defined and stay together.  Would have someone seen this kind of thing?   Operating system is Win7 Professional 32-bit.  All available updates have been installed.

Hi Jim,.

Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that you have a problem with the power settings when opening Windows Media Player 12. I've surely you will help solve this problem.

To better understand the issue, I would need more information on your side.

  1. The problem only occurs when Windows Media Player is opened?
  2. Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

This problem might have occurred because of these reasons:
1. incorrect power settings.
2 conflict between third-party applications.

I suggest you try the steps listed here and check if it helps:

Method 1:
Run Troubleshooter of power that will check if the basic power settings are set properly or not.

Open the troubleshooter of power

    There is no action at the opening of Windows media player on my windows 7 starter netbook despite the icon being present.  What could be the problem?

  • 100% use of the disc at the opening of Windows Media Player

    Since around in April or may, I had the recurring problem in which my drive would draw up to 99% or 100%, without anything to really to do. I tried a lot of solutions in order to solve this problem, and it seemed that Firefox was related to the problem. Whenever I opened it, it would go to the top, and when I want to the farm, he must go down. At that point, I was never able to locate exactly the root cause, but not opening not FF would prevent the problem, so I just never.

    A few weeks ago, the problem started to reappear, this time without Firefox causing the problem. It varies in severity, sometimes it crashes only for a minute, sometimes for long periods of time, where my computer will be completely immobilized. I tried a variety of solutions for this problem, such as:

    -Increase virtual memory

    -Disable Superfetch, Windows Update and Windows Search

    -Using CCleaner to clean the registry

    -Updating of the PC

    -Manually update Windows (that I did recently, over 1 GB to missed day)

    While it seems that performing Windows Update, the problem persists. In general, it seems that the problem does not occur now that if I open Windows Media Player. Earlier, the problem would happen certainly when I open WMP, but sometimes also just randomly. The computer will work fine, but when I open WMP, the use of the disc will go straight up to 100%, sometimes stay there until I got close, or sometimes will stay on its own. It is completely random. When I look in the resource monitor, nothing special seems to appear when that happens. Sometimes associated with WMP file will appear, and also the pagefile, but most of the time there is still some files that appear before the huge pic. I already have one and reinstalled WMP, but that doesn't seem to help.

    For the life of me I can't figure out what to do to solve this problem. It's incredibly annoying, and occasionally making my computer unusable is a huge obstacle.  I also really want to use WMP again, as I still discover another media player that I love so much. In addition, if the problem is not fixed, I know, in the next few months, it will be just another program that causes this problem.
