Re: Laptop battery drains after stopping down

Hello

I followed the instructions to uninstall "Microsoft compatible ACPI controller embarked", turn the computer off, pulled the battery etc... However, when I turned it on the "embedded controller compatible ACPI Microsoft" was more listed in the drivers... is that a problem?

Thank you

Hello @Eng_Gladiator,

Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

I understand that "controller on-board compatible ACPI Microsoft" is no longer listed in Device Manager after you have uninstalled it on your computer, and I'd be happy to help you in this case!

To invite your system to recognize the embedded controller, I advise you to follow the steps below:

1. click on the Windows key on your keyboard

2. Type "compmgmt.msc".

3. Select compmgmt.msc

4. Select the Device Manager in the left column

5. right click on the name of your computer and select Scan for hardware changes

Reference: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20131227190644AAvYPrI

If you are still not able to find the controller in Device Manager after you perform the foregoing analysis, I suggest also return your system back to a previous restore point before you uninstalled the driver. This can be done by following this document on using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8).

If the on-board controller not appear, I have recommended to perform a backup and restore of your operating system. This can be done by following this resource on the backup of files (Windows 8), and more to perform a recovery of the HP (Windows 8) system. This should help get your system back to factory settings.

If the problem persists, please call our technical support at the 800-474-6836. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number.

I would like to ask whether it is normal that the laptop battery drains do not used for a long time or is it faulty?

    L ' of full load and then do not use it for months, may have damaged the battery. 40% of the capacity is there you should have left and then removed the battery from the notebook to place it in a cool place for storage.

  • Laptop battery drains to 10%/hour when to stop.

    Hello

    I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Y400

    Intel i7-3630QM 2.4 GHz

    8 GB RAM

    1 TB HARD DRIVE

    nVidia Geforce GT 650 M

    64-bit Windows 8

    This is the first laptop I have (I've always been using desktop computers) and I first noticed that leave my laptop in standby drain the battery to 10%/hour, so I decided to let him hibernate instead. Same thing happens, the battery drains to 10%/hour, so I try to stop... Same thing happens, battery drains to 10%/hour. So I removed the battery waited several hours, he plugged back in and noticed that he do NOT drain in any significant quantity. All this happens when the laptop is not reloaded also. Any help would be appreciated!

    I found a solution to the problem. All I had to do was disable quick start settings in power options. Now, there is no noticeable drain when the laptop is turned off!

  • IPad Air battery drain after 9.2.1 Update :(

    Since the update to 9.2.-, the battery life of my faithful Air iPad seems to be screwed.

    I think I was on IOS 8 or something before, when they were still on the right, instead of being now on the left, as they used to be with my first iPad. Battery drain is ridiculous now.

    I looked for solutions and made the thing to hard reboot (power button / stop and the home, flamed Maple logo button, restart, etc.) more times than I can count and have asked the entire farm advice I can find to save ((change of email to extraction, manual instead of push, turning off the motion auto-updates off (, the app update, etc.) without success

    What bothers me most is that even when it is plugged in and over, if I use it, the battery is still visibly draining.

    Reluctant to a backup of a computer and a complete reset from zero, last resort, obvs.

    If anyone has the answer? Or are we supposed to expect that Apple to orovide another patch to sort?

    Advice or suggestions received with gratitude, I don't want to take the risk of roll back to IOS 9 or 9.1 either - from what I've seen online, there was too much battery drain issues with those, too.

    Come on, Apple! It is simply not good enough!  My iPad has lost 3% just to write this! While that plugged!

    According to the useage thing battery in parameters, 85% of it is down to Safari. My use of Safari has not changed at all.

    Impossible to find a suitable place really that Apple give me an option after that, so stick under the Safari option as all the rest has nothing to do with my question bsttery, he had nothing remotely applicable under 'software update' - which was on windows! If someone can tell me a better place to put this, I would be grateful. Newbie on this forum :/

    Thanks for reading,

    Some iOS processes tend to run constantly in the background.

    Make sure that you don't have a lot of applications running in the background in the app selector (less than say 8 apps).

    Keep the screen brightness down to somewhere between the two allows 40-60% or more with the longevity of the battery.

    You can try my list of suggestions to see id that this helps with both performance AND battery life.

    Some of these may be superfluous, so try the ones you haven't tried.

    Try to reset all the settings in the settings under general app and in the right column under restore.

    Try stories reset and delete/reset the caches in all web browsers you use.

    If you use Safari, these features may be in the application settings under Safari.

    Other browsers have their settings inside the running application itself.

    If your iPad has been activated for iCloud, in the application settings under iCloud, to the right, under iCloud Drive, type in iCloud drive and make sure that Safari is off to save data from Safari to iCloud by car.

    Also, under iCloud in the application settings, in iCloud Drive, turn the feature off saving for all other desired apps DO NOT the data automatically on iCloud drive.

    In the application settings tab general, right under the spotlight sesrch, try disable the search under the applications who really don't need a research, as some games, remote controls, apps that are really useless to be searched, etc., in order to reduce the list to Spotlight search.

    Try to turn the reduced movement.

    This is found in the application of settings in the general tab, in the left panel.

    In the right panel, look under accessibility, look to reduce the Motion and turn this feature "On".

    You should see a significant performance increase on all models of iPad 2, 3 and 4.

    In the application settings under the general tab, in the right column, search background App update and enable this setting to "off".

    If you are willing to do (I, personally, would not recommend this), some users have reported that turn off find my phone/iPad, in the settings app in iCloud, has improved the performance of iOS, although I have no how this feature could be the cause of such a slowdown in execution, unless it's a bug in the iOS which only affects some iPad users.

    Try an another hard reset of your iPad by simultaneously pressing buttons Home and sleep/wake button until your iPad goes to the dark and restarts with the Apple logo, then release the buttons.

    Good luck!

  • Dell xps 13 restarts immediately after stopping down

    Hey,.
    I bought my new dell xps 13 a month ago to Microsoft online store and had with 10 Windows.
    From the first moments, the laptop won't stop. If I try to stop it, it will stop down and a millisecond after it restarts already.

    I checked devices (USB, tuchped etc.) for power management options does not allow them to turn on the computer and also checked for differences in integrity and found nothing.

    What could be?

    Thank you

    Shahar

    This has been a problem of knowing for a while... Do not know if he is connected to W10 or Dell...

    Temp solution: press and hold the power button until the computer turns off completely. Wait 1 min and then turn it back on (important to wait at least 1 minute).

    Long-term (!) solution is to transform the hibernation that is made in advance for your power management settings. The standard is '180 min', set to 0.

  • Battery drains after put 10.0.2 update

    Since the update of my iPhone last night (10/01/16) my battery drains very quickly. Do not have this problem before the update.  All the patches?

    Greetings Willie9100,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that since the update your iPhone last night 10.0.2, your battery empty very quickly. You don't have this problem before the update. I can imagine trying to stop draining your battery. I'm happy to help you with this.

    Please take a look to maximize the life of the battery and battery life and display battery usage information and to see what proportion of your battery used by each application, specifically, this section:

    View the battery information

    iOS 9 is designed to be the most efficient battery iOS ever. And it gives more specific ways to manage your device's battery life, because you can see the proportion of your battery used by each application (unless the unit is being charged). To view your usage, go to settings > battery.

    There are messages that you can see below the applications you use:

    Background activity. This indicates that the battery has been used by the application while he was in the background - in other words, while you were using another application.

    • To improve the battery life, you can disable the feature that allows applications to background refresh. Go to settings > general > background App refresh and turn the switch to Off.
    • If the Mail app lists substantive activities, you can choose to manually recover data or increase the recovery interval. Go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > retrieve new data.

    Location and the location of the background. This indicates that the app uses location-based services.

    • You can optimize your battery life by disabling the location Services for the tour app in settings > privacy > location Services.
    • In location Services, you can see each app listed with his permission setting. Applications having recently used location-based services have an indicator next to the on/off switch.

    Home & lock screen. This indicates that the home screen or the lock screen has been posted on your device. For example, the display was awakened by pressing the Home button or by a notification.

    • If an application frequently wake up your display with notifications, you can disable push notifications for the app in settings > Notifications. Push App and set allow Notifications to Off.

    No cell phone coverage and low Signal. This means that either you are in a poor cellular coverage area and your iOS device is looking for a better signal or that you used your device in conditions of weak signal, which is reached in your battery life.

    • You can optimize your battery life by turning on airplane mode. Drag up to open Control Center and press airplane mode icon. Note that you can not make or receive calls in flight mode.

    Let us know if that helps.

    Have a wonderful day!

  • IPhone battery drain after fixing accessory fan

    I have a version of the iPhone 6 s 9.3.5, 64G, 55.5 GB avail 22.4 GB cap. My battery was fast draining after my friend inserted a fan accessory. There was a time when I slept and it was 100% and when I wake, it fell to 35%, but I turned my phone into airplane mode. I tried to disable notifications, background app refresh, locations, etc. And yet it flows easily. I need to reformat my phone?

    View-> battery settings and under "battery use" see what apps consume your battery.

    There are very little chance that connect an accessory in the past had any impact on your current battery life, except if it has been broken and ruined your phone somehow. (And I mean hardware, not software)

    for the future, make sure you always use MFI (Made for iPhone) certified accessories.

  • Battery drains after 20 minutes on a full charge

    My iPad Air first generation is having problems with the battery. After I fully charge the device at 100% the percentage will remain the same for about 15 minutes before going down to 20% before closing in on itself after 20 total minutes of usage time. I never downloaded anything or access anything that was suspicious and I only use app store apps. It happened for about 6 months and its very frustrating.

    Try to download the app from the battery life which is available for free on the App Store. Check the battery with it and if defective, schedule an appointment in an Apple store for eventual replacement.

    If your device does not load, try the procedure described in this article from Apple:
