Setup Active Power Scheme for energy saving by program

Hello

I am a software developer and I would like to create a small utility for myself which can change and set the active power for Toshiba Power Saver utility mode.

There is a function of Platform SDKs 'SetActivePwrScheme' to do a similar thing

http://msdn.Microsoft.com/library/en-us/power/base/setactivepwrscheme.asp

but it works for windows only, builtin power plans not for Toshiba Power saver.

Is it possible to put the active scheme of the Toshiba Power Saver utility?

Thanks for the advice in advance:

Kazi

Hi Kay

This is a forum for users and users of the community try to solve common problems, share their knowledge and discuss technology.
I'm not sure that you will find an answer to your question here in the forum. It is more a question for programmers.

In addition I don't think you'll find any saving code details. I think that these internal and non-accessible information for everyone.

  • Need of energy saving for Satellite L10-102

    Hello

    I want to ask whether it is possible to use a software energy saving with my Satellite L10-102 model?

    I tried software standby of an A55-S306 power but the software checked first is the appropriate model or not and then also failed.

    Hello

    You re right. This unit has been delivered without the Toshiba power saver. It uses Microsoft Windows power options.
    I put t know why the energy saver is not designed for this device, but as far as I know it s not possible to use another energy saving that was not designed for this device.
    This software cancels the installation procedure.

  • power management Windows 8 returns to energy saving

    On my new laptop with Windows 8, I implemented a plan of power according to my needs, but the computer keeps returning on setting energy saver, that turns off the screen when watching films, mitigates the light so that I work and it is really annoying. How can I stay on the power setting, I chose?

    So far so good.  So, to summarize.  I had the problem of extended battery life Dell always force the Power Saver power plan on restart.  I entered the options for Dell Extended Battery Life Options and made the following:

    1. unchecked "enable Dell Extended battery life".

    2. you click on 'apply '.

    3. click on the "Settings" button... »

    4 unchecked 'Change the Power Saver power plan' and click on 'OK '.

    5 valve applies (even if this step is perhaps superfluous)

    6. re-checked "enable Dell extended battery life"

    7. you click 'Apply' then 'OK '.

    Restarted and voila, always on my selected power plan...

    The funniest on the Dells Power Saver plan is that I usually leave the laptop on open on my desktop and the thing just stays on, sucking power there all the time.  It seems to turn off the screen.  And never to Hibernate (Actuallly, I just double checked the settings - a full three hours before hibernation...) Who would think that which is energy saving? -It is half of the total autonomy when it runs)...  Can not understand how "energy saving" I would go further with a charged battery is full charge nearby when I got home, but would have an almost empty battery after 4-5 hours.  It seems also stay away, or at least suck power, when I closed the lid.  Finally got the option to Hibernate when I close the lid.  Not a lot of power use there, hopefully.

    Thank you

  • Need of energy saving for Vista on Satellite A100

    I bought my A100 with XP Home almost a year ago.
    I bought Vista Business Edition and I installed it on the PC.
    I downloaded the vista from the support section drivers and install them.
    Everything worked fine except for the following:
    1 Toshiba power saver is not included in the vista drivers and the old version is not compatible with vista
    2 - Toshiba PC config also the same problem

    Can someone tell me how to get the new version of power saver and pc config for vista.
    my laptop is A100 (PSAA9).

    Thnx

    Hello

    TOSHIBA Power Saver for Vista tool is not available. All you can do is to install the package of value-added and other Toshiba designed tools listed on the download page.

    Many power settings are now part of the Vista operating system and Toshiba does not power the day before regarding the Windows XP Edition operating system family.

  • ENERGY SAVING does not work! Satellite A105

    Please read very carefully, as I tried to make it as detailed as possible. I had this problem before, and when I installed the new BIOS driver, it fixed itself. I'm not so lucky this time. Also, please AVOID recommending to use my recovery CD, because I know, it is possible to solve this problem without it, and the restore CD is the easy/practical answer on how to solve this problem.

    OK, so I just installed the new BIOS software, and now my TOSHIBA Power Saver won't work. I use a Satellite A105-S4284 on Windows XP SP2. When I start the computer, I get this message:

    TPSODDCtl.exe - Ordinal not found
    The 21 ordinal not found in dynamic link TPSMainCtl.dll library.
    Ok

    I know that this refers to the power of Eve, but I don't know what to do about this.

    In addition, I searched other forums on this issue. When I open the control panel and switch to Classic view, TOSHIBA Power Saver icon is there. I double click on it, and I get this message:

    Cannot open, as "TOSHIBA Power Saver" is not running.
    In order to run it, please open "Power Options" in the Control Panel, then choose "TOSHIBA Power Saver" in the list box "Power schemes" on Page "power schemes".
    Ok

    I open power options, and toshiba power sleep mode is already selected. I tried to apply another and switching back, but this did not help.

    I tried to reinstall both the power of Eve AND the common modules on the site of TOSHIBA drivers, and which did not help. I tried to uninstall the energy saver all together, and I get this error message:

    Cannot locate the Setup log 'C:\Program Toshiba Saver\uninst.isu. Uninstallation will not continue.

    I opened the saving folder in the location above, and there are two files: TPSTrace (a plain text file) and TPwrSetup. $$$ (Note: the ' $' are not mistakes, that's what he said). The plain text file contains this message:

    A fatal error has occurred. The program will end. Code: 0x45A location: TPSDel.cpp (230)

    Help, please! Thanks in advance for all time!

    Looks like something in your system is really messed up. Because you won´t be advised to recover your machine, so I can't give you any suspicion because that would REALLY be the one and the only option to solve this problem.

    If some software Toshiba uninstall NOT etc then it won´t repair itself, or it can be sorted out by re-installled or force too install apps...
    Maybe you make you a few remarks and then save your files in order to recover your machine?

    Would be the best method. Otherwise: good luck!

  • Satellite P30: Energy saving does not work correctly

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite P30 (with Windows XP) and I have problems with my energy saving mode. When I use it for games and other applications of high power, it gets really hot on the edge of the moitor and stops.

    Is it for the last month or two. Before that, it was absolutelly no problem. I checked the file TPSTrace and got this error message:
    A fatal error has occurred. The program will end. Code: 0x0 rental: MainFrm.cpp (1317)

    I do not know what to do with it and how to solve the problem. Any ideas?

    Hi Thomas

    It is not easy to give you an accurate diagnosis, but in my opinion your laptop isn't hot because of the energy savings. Satellite P30 is pretty old laptop and maybe you should clean your laptop.

    Have you done this before?

    This error seems to be serious and what you can do is to remove the preinstalled energy saver and after restarting try installing it again.

    Just FYI: Watch tool is very useful, but certainly not so important and your system can function very well without it. Because of this, I presume that portable hot is because of dust inside. With more CPU and activity hardware graphics card will be hot and must be cooled properly. If the cooling rack does not clean this cannot happen. Initially, notebook will be hot, but one day she is probably turned off without any warning.

    In the first trial step to clean your laptop and remove all the dust under cooling grill.

  • Energy saving of Toshiba on SP M30

    I have the same problem with Toshiba watch on my SP M30 laptop running WinXP SP2 and SP1.
    This utility generally LCD Brightness according to the level of the battery.
    If you connect your laptop to external power the display gets bright IF you are logged on as an administrator.
    This is not the case if the user has no administrator rights, the user gets the access denied message if you try to start this application.

    If I understand correctly Power Saver should adjust the brightness of the LCD screen automatically, or it should be at least possible to choose a predefined profile even if connected as a user.

    Energy saving settings may deny access to the application to users, but I don't have a check mark in this box.

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the app without success.
    Even with no installed saver the screen goes black, and then even an admin can not fix it.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    your first question is not clear as what experience do you have with the energy saver and SP1 or SP2? Could you write it down more detailly to facilitate the support of the community.

    In my opinion, you had installed as administrator energy saver and maybe you restrict the user rights!

    For the problem solve you should uninstall the energy saver and do a fresh install with the latest version of the page Web of Toshiba.

    Also, you should read the "Driver Update Information for Windows XP with Service Pack 2" which you can also download on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

    Go to support and download and choose your machine!

  • Spectrum x 360: screen goes black randomly when on battery and some energy-saving options enabled

    Hello everyone,

    I bought this fantastic machine called spectrum x 360 and I love it.

    Unfortunately since the early days I'm facing what I think it's a problem of driver/software (not the related material).

    This problem only occurs when I'm on Windows, not in the bios or at the startup. JUST IN Windows envinroment, especially after the login, and when the computer was turned off. Sometimes when I use it after a while, randomly.
    This occurs only when the spectrum is on battery. The problem does not appear on AC adapter.

    Problem: the screen goes black randomly for a few seconds and then reappear, sometimes the entire image on the right slide and there is a part that looks like yellow and corrupt, then goes black and reappears.

    Windows Version: I'm on Windows Home 64 bit, build 14393.321 10 (update of the anniversary).

    The entire screen works fine for normal operations, no artifacts.

    Replication of the problem
    Initially, I was able to reproduce the problem with the driver build 4360 (which is the version of the driver from the HP site). Whenever I loaded the home page of youtube and the banner has started playing on the screen went black sistematicly.
    Then I updated the GPU driver through the Device Manager, which has improved my GPU driver to 21.20.16.4494, as of July 25, 2016 and the problem happens much more rarely.
    Now I am facing this problem again but Edge works correctly and is not the cause of the problem, it can appear even when I don't do anything with the PC.

    I noticed this problem appears when saving options are enabled for the Intel GPU (I'm trying to translate this to English because the GPU driver Panel is in Italian):

    -update panel houses;
    -advanced mode; energy saving

    If I disable these options, the problem does not appear or, better, for I've tested so far, he could not displayed when options are not in market, but I have not tested this very long to be sure.

    In my opinion, there is a bug in the display driver, or some customizations made by HP causes problems with the driver.
    The rest of the computer works correctly.
    Any idea to solve this problem? Or should I keep these options turned off power saving?

    Hi, thanks for your help.

    I have a passion for COMPUTING and ex-computer SCIENTIST, I am familiar in surveys on hardware/software questions and hope that this post will help some users get rid of this problem.
    Black screens and screen corruption has been issued by the option called "auto refresh Panel" energy saving.
    I did a lot of hours on battery (condition where this pop ups problem) in these days and the problem didn't show when it was turned off.
    To verify that I tried to activate "Panel options self-identity" in certain occasions and, at random, on the first boot of the machine (after being turned off) the problem arises again.
    It certainly is a problem with this energy-saving option.
    Now everything works fine.
    If the problem appears again, I will post more information.
    Thank you for your support.

    I think it would be useful to stick this post on top in this section of the forum, to be useful to other users and being more visible.

  • TOSHIBA Power Saver for Qosmio F50?

    I am owner of a Qosmio F50-108 and I can't seem to find Power Saver utility from TOSHIBA.

    What is the same thing that the utility options of power on the control panel? I've seen screenshots of power saver utility from Toshiba which is supposed to be delivered pre-installed on their laptops, but the one I saw was on a Qosmio G10.

    The series F50 there as well? If Yes, where can I find it?

    Hello!

    As far as I know that the Qosmio F50 comes with Windows Vista and not XP.

    TOSHIBA Power Saver is only available for Windows XP because Vista has the same functions as energy savings. The energy saving features are now an integral part of Vista.

  • Energy saving and its fall to stop AGAIN!

    Hello

    My topic was blocked for unexplained reasons. It seems that many other people in this forum and I begin to doubt the quality of your support department. :(

    Here is the link to my (mrbyte) topic:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=1976&TSTART=30

    My question was energy saving crashing to the stage of the stop. I did not help so far. and no update driver since October 2004! my laptop model is relatively new (bought last August):

    Satellite Pro M30:Centrino / 1.7 GHz/15.4 "TFT-W/60 GB / 256 + 256 MB/DVD-S-MULTI/LAN/Wi-Fi/i.LINK"

    Please... I would appreciate if you could at least ensure that me and other users concerned that another version of the driver for standby power is soon to be released!

    It isn't really the laptop cheaper that I bought, nor it is old. and there certainly should be according to the level of technical support service!

    looking forward to your reply,

    Hi again Andrew!

    I think that this last topic was perhaps a bit too long and difficult to understand and that of why it was closed, but the discussion can continue in this topic. I think that it shouldn't be a problem and I would like to discuss more common subject of Eve, but all first I would ask you to do two things.

    First don t always just copy my words because it simply turns into a lot of text with no beginning and no end and it s too long. I would like that discuss you to accept the other view s of people so mine I have calmly without frustrated because no one is forcing a solution his individual views. It is entirely at you if you want to change something or not.

    It's a good thing that you are a programmer because thanks to this line of work, you get more information about issues that occur when you have conflicts between the programs.

    I have two laptops Toshiba that I use for work and private home. After our last discussion, I have examined carefully the features of saving on both of my books. There are two totally different versions and they both work great on AC or batteries.

    In my opinion, it is the cause of your problem is a conflict and that that of why energy saver cannot end process. I believe that after years of practice in collaboration with computers as you know sometimes BONE without apparent reason starts to behave differently and that, in these cases, the best thing to do is just reinstall OS around and set it up. To avoid these problems, what I do is to make the image of my system using Ghost application.

    Please accept that in your case it is not an error in energy saving because if it was you would experience difficulties with him from the beginning. If it was a mistake that occurs to a few thousand users, that would be a serious mistake, and it would be possible to update from the web.

    I don t want to talk you to do things, but the best option would be to backup your data and reinstall the OS using the recovery CD. I'm sure that after doing so, you will have no more problems. Then, you install the programs you need and use and configure the operating system to meet your needs.

    Sorry if I said just a little too but I would really like solve you that problem and enjoy using your M30 SP.

  • Satellite M40X-286: energy saving and the E - key utility does not work on Vista

    First of all, sorry for my bad English.

    I managed to install Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit on my Satellite M40X-286. Everything works, except for the energy saving and the E - key utility. I tried the added value of packages of other TOSHIBA models, but they all give an error message during the installation. Is there a solution for this problem?

    Now I can't change the speed of the processor and the brightness of my screen, and I can't even adjust these settings in a power mode. The only way to change the brightness is manually using the FN + F6 and F7 keys.

    Kind regards
    Stijn.

    Please don t be crazy about me, but there is no problem at all. The situation is quite clear.

    First: tools and utilities are similar, but in most cases have to be adapted for each laptop model. It may happen that some tools work on the different model of laptop, but this does not mean that he has to work on each model.

    Second important fact is that Toshiba does not Satellite M40X support for Vista operating system and I guess you won't be able to use this tool. In my opinion, it is not so important, because all the energy-saving settings you can find in Vista power options.

    For utility E - key, I don't see a solution. If you use OS not supported, you must live with it.

    But the energy saving of Toshiba for look of Vista doesn t as the saver of energy for Win XP.

  • Is there a Toshiba Power Saver for Vista?

    I can't find a version of POWER SAVER for vista. This is only for XP?

    You are right.
    As far as I know Toshiba Power saver for Vista doesn t exists and it is not released.

    You probably noticed that own power options of Vista are very similar to the Toshiba power saver. You can control several power settings and create profiles of different powers. An additional tool such as energy-saving is unnecessary.
