Sleep problem graphics amplifier AW 17 R2 (2015)

AW 17 R2 (2015) - Windows 8.1

When the graphics amplifier is plugged all the options for the laptop on standby are unavailable.

When the amplifier is NOT plugged

(1) the laptop sleeps

(2) power options to change the behavior of the power buttons and lid are available to set

(3) to change power options the "stop settings are all available."

(4) power sleep menu a

(5) in the command center AW options for cover buttons and power exist. Show all options and work just as directly from power options.

When the amplifier IS plugged

(1) portable computer does not sleep

(2) power options to change the behavior of the power buttons and lid are NOT available to address

(3) to change power options the "stop settings are NOT all available." (only the lock)

(4) power menu didn't sleep

(5) in the command center AW options for cover buttons and power exist.  However only the options of 'Stop' and 'Do nothing' work.

I have the latest graphics drivers amplifier.

I have the last command center of AW.

The amplifier is loaded with a GB of Titan X 12 GTX - I tried the last divers NVIDIA as well as those on the DELL site.

I also tried the NVIDIA drivers desktop and laptop NVIDIA drivers.  I read some posts where drivers for laptop computer should always be used, but playing Devils lawyer I've tried both.

There is no problems with the graphics performance.  The only problem is the laptop can not sleep, nor so all options work for configure to sleep.

Has anyone else seen elsewhere?

This IS intentional behavior.  I agree that it is a huge usability problem and I wish I had known that the sleep and Hibernate would be disabled before buying my GA like my setup with its power supply 980ti and nVidia 750w improved waste as much electricity when I have to walk away and end up leaving the thing running for hours , but the truth is she IS the behavior expected - I have my theories as to why, but the fact that it is a voluntary limitation was confirmed by Dell.  Perhaps the reasoning in the spirit of the engineers comes from what would happen if, for example, the laptop someone entered mode of hibernation when you are connected to the AG.  It seems to me be off for all practical purposes, so that the user can easily be supposed to think they can come and disconnect the cables from GA and throw their laptop in a case and take off with him.  Then when they try to feed him without the GA attached to the top, it would almost certainly be BSOD right from the start and then Dell would have to deal with people calling to complain that their laptops are not stable, and the general image of any of the Alienware series if hit people started hearing through the grapes that these new laptops BSOD a lot... so rather than trust for be smart enough to understand the functioning of our machines, they just disabled all features of sleep when the gas are attached.  That's my theory.  If I'm right there should be a way to force it to sleep, and we just keep in mind not to disconnect our gas without first wake up the machine to make a complete stop.

    Hi Jürgen

    I don t think that Microsoft would be able to help you usually the laptop manufacturers are responsible for own products

    If you have any problems regarding the features of the laptop, you will need to contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your additional countries, you can call the hotline of Toshiba.

    You can also ask the here community of users for some advice, assistance, etc.

    This Z830-11J is certainly win 8 supported as you can see here the model number in the Win 8 compatibility matrix: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/checkWindows8Compatible.do?service=EU

  • HP Spectre13-3010dx sleep problems, Shutdown

    Hello

    I recently bought this ultrabook and I noticed that the sleep and stop functions do not work as expected. Restart works very well.

    Description of the problem

    • When you try to put the computer to sleep, the screen goes black, but the system stays on (lights on the keyboard, the fan spins again). I'm unable to recover from this State unless I make a difficult stop (hold down the power button / stop) or wait 5 minutes, how the computer off simply. This kind of... defeated the purpose of "sleep". Haha.
    • Same thing happens when I stop the laptop - screen turns off, turns on and the fan turned on and unless I turned off by force, laptop remains in a vegetative state for five minutes and then shuts down its own.
    • In both cases, I am unable to recover from the black screen. No response from the computer, regardless of the key combination (Ctrl + Alt + Delete, etc.)

    I dug around here the support forums and noticed other people had issues similar, but on different computer models (i.e., Pavilion, dv6, etc.), so I tried to take these specific solutions to solve my problem, but there has been no result.

    Steps taken to solve the attempt

    • The laptop came with the version of BIOS Insyde F.09, so I updated the version of BIOS to F.13. Does not solve the problem
    • I went into the BIOS and reset all default settings. Still has not solved the problem.
    • I found another thread that the user had the same problem as me, but on a different model specifications. I tried to use their solution to roll back BIOS. However, it has not yet solve the problem.
      http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-lockups-freezes-hangs/shut-down-sleep-problem-HP-Pavilion-note... ***

    Note: Problem of this other user has emerged due to a BIOS upgrade, while my computer was delivered to me with this already existing problem.

    From this moment any help would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Edge 13 sleep problem win7 (intel)

    Hello

    I think I have a sleep problem with my edge. If I close the lid, I can still hear the hard drive by clicking on current time to time and CPU fan. I checked all the power settings and it should go to sleep and nothing should stop going to sleep. Case may be where the cover he never sleeps, but if I choose sleep from the start menu, it will sleep. And I checked all the places it should go sleep by closing the lid.

    Thing worries me a bit, it is that if I run in prompt command "powercfg - a" he reports this computer only supports the S3 (hybrid sleep) and S1 and S2 modes are not supported.

    Mystery solved:

    HW problem!

    A magnet located in the lower right corner of the cover of the computer, under the screen rectangle shaped box is too low!

    I tried one of my magnets "fridge" on the top of my power button and computer went to sleep state and _stayed_ in mode standby.

    * Sigh * I wonder what I should do to fix this problem? Magnetic tape to improve the weak magnet on my computer?

  • Graphic amplifier purchase options

    So I'm on screen for the customization of Alienware 13 and I want a graphic amplifier to come with her. I clicked on the little bubble next to the amplifier of graphics option and then he said:

    Step 2 (optional): choose only one desktop graphics card to complete your experience.

    I need a very good graphics card so I chose the 1070 GTX, but I noticed that he removed the bubble of the amplifier of graphics option. When I order the laptop it will still come with the amplifier graphic or just the graphics card I bought? Thank you

    It is indeed confusing on the auction site. For now, do not order from here. Restore Dell (1-800-999-3355) Sales Department and ask them to manually create the command. Be very specific all three devices you want =.

  • X 51 R3 and graphics amplifier - lanes available PCIe?

    I have a X 51 R3 with an i7-6700 inside for a processor, a 960 in the PCIe slot GTX GPU internal and a graph connected with a GTX inside 1080 amplifier. With the GTX installed 960, 960 a 16 lane PCIe available and GPUz shows it connected like this, and the 1080 has only 2 channels available PCIe and shows that it connected like that. When I remove the 960 internal 1080 in the graphic amplifier shows that it is connected via PCIe 3.0 x 4-4 lanes available.

    Why would this be the case? Is there a solution?

    Hello

    The amplifier supports up to x 4. There is a new BIOS from up to fix the x 2 single behavior during its use. Sorry for the inconvenience. Keep control of our main support site, the update will be displayed here.

    Just make sure that you use the version of the driver 368.39.

  • Error ' ' system timer was triggered "and hibernation / sleep problem.

    Original title: Hibernation and sleep problem?

    I bought a new laptop of Toshiba C55 series probably a little a month ago and for a while, it was fine, I had no problem. I had some mistakes with what is called a bad pool header, I've not experienced this once again. My main problem is with the sleep and hibernation. I went and disabled any parameter that would be extended automatically to my computer after a short period of time. It is set at only hibernate after like five hours, I'm never away from him that long. I don't want it to hibernate unless I put it specifically put into hibernation. I heard talking about hibernation is hard on your computer. I am usually only away from him for a couple of hours, so it's easier to have it in sleep so I can come back and get the right to return to work or what I was doing. I put it in mode 'sleep' whenever I need to go away for a few hours, for some time, I had no problem, he would go to the mode standby and stay there until I woke it. My problem is that most of the time when I put it in fashion watches, it goes to the hibernate after only a few minutes. WHY would he do that? And how can I stop it? There are times that I put him to sleep and he done as it should. Most of the time, but it goes to the hibernate after a few minutes. I don't want to make this period. Is there a setting I'm missing, I have conflicting settings on something? What is a small problem with Windows 8, or with my computer itself? The last thing I want to do is to restore it to factory settings and lost all the things that I have saved and have to reinstall my programs again.

    There is also something else showing in my event viewer I've ever seen before. That means when he says "system timer was triggered." And can someone tell me what means the bad pool header error and how to fix it?

    I found a solution, I noticed when I Hibernate the computer at night to go to bed is when it remains not in mode 'sleep'. I stopped it in hibernation at all now and it says in the mode "sleep" very well.

  • Dell U2715H as second monitor sleep problem

    I just bought a Dell U2715H monitor to connect to my iMac 27 "mid-2010.

    Implementation, the system works beautifully. Plug n play, as we are accustomed to the Apple universe.

    But after an automatic start, this morning, the Dell remained black, what I tried.

    A phone call with the helpdesk Dell did not bring a solution; they are willing to trade for a new monitor, but I think not (just a feeling) which will tackle the problem.

    After having a cup of coffee, I came back to my Mac, who had fallen asleep in the meantime.

    Pressing a button all of life, including (surprise) the Dell monitor system.

    After a few experiences, I discovered that after a reboot, the Dell remains black.

    Put the system to sleep (using a hot corner) and pressing a key is not wake up the Dell.

    Bringing the system to sleep and pressing a button after waiting 10-20 seconds, puts the entire system, including the Dell monitor.

    The monitor is connected to a mid 2010 iMac 27 "2.93 GHz Intel Core i7, with a miniDP to DP cable.

    Although I found this 'solution' after hours of frustrating attempts, it feels a bit inadequate.

    Anyone who is familiar with this problem who found a more definitive solution?

  • 15-P152NU Pavilion: Pavilion/closed sleep problem

    Hello everyone! I write for the first time and I hope I do it in the right section.
    So, I recently bought a new 15-P152NU Pavilion and it is great but there is a very annoying problem right from the beginning that drives me crazy I tried almost everything I might have found on the Internet and still found no solution. So my problem is this - when I use the laptop for periods of solitaire (over an hour) it won't go to sleep or off. When I try to do a stop/standby the screen would turn black and the cover and the fan would stay. What I noticed is that if I try to shutdown/sleep when I used it for periods short (10-20 minutes), it would be nice and the fan and the cover would be turned off. But otherwise they would stay and my copmputer essentially dies and I have to press on and hold the power button and then start all over to get to the race. I tried to leave it any longer (I left it overnight) - without success. I don't know either it is based on the temperature of the cpu or a process which starts after a certain period of time, but I was really tired so I hope that I find a solution here. What I've tried so far is:

    -Adjust the advanced settings in Power Options.
    -Disable Hibernation
    -Update/restore Intel HD Graphics Family and almost all drivers which could be updated / restored.
    -Run the troubleshooter in Windows
    -Disable Boot (Restart) fast
    -Looking for a process that interrupts sleep and stopping by using powercfg-queries. All say no
    -Looked for a setting in the BIOS that could prevent the stop/standby - found nothing related...

    I'm really tired of this so I'll be looking forward to your answers. Hope someone can help me.

    Hello, @Sparkles1,.

    And thanks for the reply to my post. Fortunately, I managed to solve the problem. I found a solution after a long reading on the Internet. You, it might be useful for other users, I will share it than what has worked for me.

    1. go in Control Panel -> Device Manager
    2. expand System devices
    3. find Intel (R) Management Engine interface -> right click-> properties-> driver

    4. check the driver version. If 11.x.x.x , you'll probably face my problem.

    5. uninstall the driver. Restart your computer.
    6. download the old driver (version 9.5.15.1730 5 M) by https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=intel+management+engine and install it. Reboot if requested.

    That's all. This did the trick for me. I hope it will be useful for other users too.

    I'm sorry I didn't post my solution earlier, but I had completely forgotten that I had posted here. Anyway thanks for your reply. I think that the forums of HP is an amazing place.

    Happy holidays!
