T400: Start button / stop does nothing in Vista

Hello, I start button / stop set to "turn off computer" in the Power Manager settings, but when I press the Vista power button nothing happens. I use Vista 32 bit SP2. The power button turns the computer very well and of course now that it performs a closed hard but he executes any action when you press right on it.

Holding for 1.5 seconds will shut down normally (assuming that you have defined at the stop) and now it for about 5 seconds or more will make a stop 'hard' who just turns off everything without a load.

  • Pavilion 15 laptop: Start button / stop does not turn off

    After the upgrade to windows 10, "sleep" mode did not work, however a windows update corrects this problem. The only problem I have seen today is that when I stopped my laptop the power button stays on your battery and I have to manually turn off (by pressing for 5 seconds).  What I do is turn on the computer again and stop it again, and then it turns off completely. I m afraid that force close down may harm the computer.  As info... I bought my laptop this year, came with windows 8.1.  Any help? Thanks in advance.

    1. Download version 9 or 10 of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver.

    2. Download the Package of troubleshooting Windows 10 "show or hide updates" (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/2/F22D5FDB-59CD-4275-8C95-1BE17BF70B21/wushowhide.diagcab).
    3. Change the Windows Update Services automatic (delayed start) parameter to the manual.
      • In Control Panel, select administrative tools, and open Services.
      • Go to Windows Update and double-click it to view its properties.
      • Click on stop to stop the service to run.
      • Change the Startup Type to manual, and then click OK.
    4. Install version 9 or 10 of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver.  If you receive a warning dialog box about the replacement of a newer version of the software, accept it.
      • NOTE: You have NO need to uninstall version 11 before installing version 9 or 10.  The presence of a version of the driver is required to 'upgrade' (or demote in this case).
    5. Run the Windows 10 Troubleshooting Package 'Show or hide updates' and hide the updates of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver.  (This will block your system automatically reinstall or display of updates for version 11 of the pilot).
    6. Change back the setting of Windows Update Services to manual automatic (delayed start).
    7. Restart your computer.
    8. Rejoice!  You can finally sleep and stop again.

  • Start button / stop does not work

    Here's the thing:

    I bought the OfficeJet pro 8600 last year.

    Everything was ok until this month one (September 2014) after 13 months of use.

    All of a sudden the power button no longer works, I mean, I can no longer turn the printer unless I unplug him the decision-making.

    I followed all the instructions on this thread (http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/officejet-pro-8600-plus-won-t-shut-off... and have my unresolved problem.)

    Its firmware version is CKP1CN1435AR. The latest version on the HP site is CLP1CN1322CR. I downloaded it but I could not install because it presented the status does not apply.

    I would like a concrete solution from HP support. If it is a firmware issue, please tell me where I can download a functional.

    If it's a hardware problem, please tell me we can I acquire spare parts, after the warranty period has expired, can I fix it myself (I'm an electronic engineer). If you know that it's a hardware problem, you must know which component is defective and will save a lot of my work if you tell me where can I buy a new one, instead of telling me to take my printer to an HP support.

    Thank you in advance,
    Stanley

    To the right.

    Finally, I managed to find the cause of a malfunction of the power button on the printer.

    It is not necessary to connect the printer directly to the output. It is not necessary to reset. It is not necessary to update its firmware.

    When you use the printer, I noticed that when I raise the front panel by pressing the button located to the right and pulling the Panel upwards, the light on the power button is off.

    When lowered the Panel, the light on again.

    So obviously, I concluded that the operation of the power button was based on mechanical moving parts work perfectly.

    I pressed the power button and the printer still does not close. So, I pressed the front against the printer and to the left. I heard a sound like a click.

    I pressed the power button and the printer turns off again.

    I repeated the process several times with the same result.

    Then I realized that simply lower the Panel was not enough for the power button work.

    After having lowered the Panel, press it against the printer and a little to the left until it almost imperceptible click.

    In doing so, the power button works perfectly.

    I hope this can help owners of this printer, once HP has not helped.

  • START BUTTON / STOP DOES NOT ILLUMINATE

    I have a hpe-500y that a few weeks and the power button which is normally blue when on or yellow in sleep mode does not work, is there a way to reset this or is it a warranty issue? computer turns on normally and works very well just know light.

    Hello

    It's almost certainly a hardware failure of the LED charge to illuminate the power button.  I highly recommend that you have this repaired under warranty - depending on the time you got the PC, you may still be able to get the retailer to replace so it may be interesting to contact them about this.

    If you need to contact HP for repair under warranty, you can do here.

    Original title: Start button / stop - "ask me what to do" - where is it?

    Under XP, when I pressed the power button I could put it "Ask Me what to do." This is very useful for two reasons:

    -My PC is under my desk, and if I'm not careful, I can press the power button with my knee...

    -To turn off, I can hit the power button / stop rather than start etc, then choosing.

    Hello

    Yes, there are only work-a-rounds and that is why I suggested that
    thread. There are also a few details about why he was abducted that
    are especially that in general as it caused more problems than it solved. Then
    for those who have used the function correctly, it is a concern when trying
    to restore its functionality. To my knowledge, is not 100%
    this case, just ability cannot be added in by a registry setting
    as support has been totally removed. If this is the case, then the work - a-
    towers or possible 3rd party solutions are the remaining options.

    Please let us know if you find a better solution.

    I hope this helps.

  • Button / stop does not not how to start my mobile

    Hello

    I have the Motorola Milestone A853. I use the GSM of Auntie DOCOMO network.

    This is the second time I had a problem with the power/unlock button. (Last time I replaced him in the warranty is always there until December)

    Last night my phone battery runs. In the morning I plugged it to load, but the power button is not operational. I can't start my mobile.

    I lived the increased harshness of the button / stop for these days. But now I'm stuck.

    Another way to start this mobile?

    The closest repair center is 250 km. It will take a whole day to get there.

    Hi all

    You can start the phone without power button / stop.

    What suits you, just connect the phone to your computer. It begins, at least for me.

    Remove the battery and insert again also also works some time.

    I got the power button on my phone replaced under warranty!

  • Meeting place for Dell 11 Pro 7130 power button / stop does not work

    I just bought this camera and can not get the power button to turn on the screen and off as suggested by the manual should be possible.  If I press and hold the power button then it made a stop hard and if I held down when turned off it will vibrate for a second and then turn on, but a short press does nothing when Windows is running.

    Tried short diagnostics and no problems found. Updated the BIOS to the A13, the drivers updated to the latest versions of all available installers, updated firmware screen scanner and camera. I saw a post from early 2014 with the same question where someone suggested to put it off to quick start, but that has not changed anything either. All Windows updates have been applied.

    How can I get the power button to work?

    If after trying a few things more that I decided to give at the moment and made a sweet sleep on the desktop shortcut, so I had a quick way to get at least the screen turns off. The command to execute is: rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendState 0,1,0

    This seems to be more than Hibernate because it should boot from the bios whenever it turns on (although the arguments given him say no to the hibernation), but it was better than nothing.

    I tested it worked a few times then rebooted the system. When I did this he decided to install updates which he said yet that all were waiting. When he started upward the power button now works.  I don't know what has changed or if the execution of the order makes a difference, but at least it works now.

    Hello

    Now, seems dead - button / stop, black screen, no its HARD drive is unresponsive. Only signs of life are power and battery LED on the front of the computer. Press and hold the power button for more than 10 seconds do nothing.

    Any ideas?

    Stop switch force (hole) is available at the bottom of the laptop.
    In the case of PC freezes, do not start or a power failure, which can be fixed by pressing the power button for 10 seconds (force shutdown) and now, use the stop switch to force

  • Nitro V15 - button / stop does not stop is

    Hello

    I bought a Nitro V15 Windows 10 and when I press the power button, nothing happens at all. I saw that there is a "Acer power button" app installed that allows to stop or power standby extended. My power settings are defined in a way that the power button should hibernate the computer is running on battery or so that the charge. If I hold it for 3 seconds, then it requires has cut (no not a good closing) then the button works - and of course when you start the laptop, it works fine.

    How can I get the original from the rear switch functionality?

    I don't understand why the power button functionality has been removed?  We recently bought one Acer laptop (not a Nitro), and who has the same problem. So I guess it's one thing to Acer.

    Thanks for any advice in advance!

    Fiper / All,

    I just got the message that is the (indicated in bold) below Acer support team:

    "Thank you for contact Acer support.
    In regards to your concern, the settings that are currently installed on the system is the best settings to use. Basically, Windows 10 you can click the start (Windows logo) and it has the ability to shut down or restart, etc. This will allow you to close all programs before you shut down the system and avoid system problems.
    By pressing the power button for 1 second mark the system hibernate so you can still use it on a while later while all applications that you left behind are where you left them. However, if you like, you can go back to the power settings and adjust the settings (press the power button / stop) change to stop instead of Hibernate. "

    I knew only by pressing the power button for 3 + seconds force a full stop and I was not aware that by pressing for 1 second not hibernation or anything that can be defined in the power settings. It works perfectly.

    I recommended that they consider finding a way to clarify this point for Acer laptops users, like after a week of searching on Google, I can confirm that I was not not only know this one second by pressing option.

    IronFly, thanks for trying to help!

    Kind regards
