Turns off when low battery on Presario CQ56 Notebook

I have Windows 7.  The low battery alarm notification / is not coming on the screen or the sounding (and I checked several times now to check that she is not disabled).  The laptop is simply making a hard closed down just below 7% of the battery instead of hibernation.  Now my battery drains too much faster than before.  I'm not sure if it's as a result of this, because I'm now connect earlier (when I take it is low), or completely different.

I use Mozilla Firefox (version 12.0) for the web and initially thought it was just a bug in Firefox.  Then it started happening when I was not using the Internet.  I upgraded to Win7 as it started, and he has not made a difference.

I ran several error checking, virus and malware scans... and all is well.

Any help would be appreciated!

Run a check of the battery for HP Support Assistant--> troubleshooting--> power, thermal and mechanical--> Power

Then, run the battery calibration. Which will define the indication 100% to the real and full battery capacity.

Go to power management and the value that the operating system should do when the battery is approaching a level determined by yourself.  Watch the video on this Microsoft web pagethat explains how this is possible.

  • Satellite U300 turns off when the battery has been removed

    Hello

    I'm on the laptop with the battery in place, and the power supply plugged in.
    That's when I take off the battery (always plugged power) who, after 5 seconds the laptop powers off.

    It's not happened before and now it happens ALL the time every time I have to remove the battery.
    I noticed that when the battery is removed, the battery light is always on – if for some reason any cell phone still thinks the battery is connected.

    For me, it looks like an electronic power supply problem.

    But it s just my personal opinion

    I think that the laptop should be checked by an authorized technician.

    Contact the ASP in your country and ask for verification

    If the warranty is valid then an everything should be done for free

    Good bye

  • S7 - 392 constantly turns off when on battery

    Hello

    Recently upgraded to Windows 10 and I have a problem that when not with the AC adapter and works on the battery the laptop stops at random and not cleanly. I can't stay on for more than 5 minutes at a time, and often it stops as soon as I log in. When you use the AC adapter I have no problem at all.

    Grateful for any ideas, otherwise I'll try a new installation.

    Thank you

    Got a little and tightened the screw that I found this solution on the net... well. Been turned on and off several times without problem. 45 minutes running and still ok. Fingers crossed!

  • Touchpad Iconia W510 turns off when the battery dies

    I know this isn't the best subject line, but he described a kind of my problem.

    My W510 Iconia came with Win 8 when new and then the empty Tablet two batteries so that I could use the touchpad for as long as I could use the device. Drained the battery of the keyboard first of all, there's enough juice to keep the touchpad and keyboard work and then switched to the battery of the tablet. When I closed the lid it load the battery in the keyboard shelf. Neat.

    When I upgraded to 8.1 win he has changed so that it now would drain the keyboard battery almost completely and thus stops the touchpad. Sill keyboard works, however. Is not treated, it is a step backward and very annoying.

    This turns a laptop very versatile and ergonomic for a tablet with a keyboard for about 50% of his total time of battery, which is a long time for this device. The only way using the touchpad is to charge the battery of the keyboard more than x % (when it is unplugged the touchpad up 0% works). I haven't checked how I need to load the keyboard in order to get the touchpad working again. I write this as it Chargers and 15% is still not restarting the touchpad, I guess I have to restart.

    The other week I upgraded to Windows 10 and Win 8.1 behavior continues.

    Of course, all the drivers and updates from Windows Update are installed and uptodate.

    Y at - it a fix, a driver that it cures, a power setting which prevents the tablet to completely drain the batteries in the keyboard?

    Thanks for your time!

    Because I failed to locate the drivers for the touchpad and reinstall so I used the system restore feature.

    Curiously enough the touchpad began immediately the work during the restore process while restoring the system itself ended with a message that it was unable to restore Windows to an earlier version of point as no changes have been identified.

    Well, everything is working now, so, my lesson is that the system restore can restore drivers and relaunch devices Device Manager can not find.

    Whenever my laptop reaches 10%, will switch to "standby" and won't do anything until I plug the charger. Is this normal? Is it possible to change this?

    Hello

    Yes, it's quite normal. You can set it to tell you and stop at lower % (or 5%) with power option.

    Kind regards.

    Dv7-3165dx notebook computer unexpectedly shuts off when the battery is low. Even at 17%.

    This gets really annoying, that I keep losing jobs! Before it used to give me a warning and then Hibernate. Now there is no warning and it turns off without saving anything.

    Help!

    The laptop is a year old.

    I already ran the diagonsitic battery and it said the battery was good.

    OK, I think I finally figured it by changing power options, and I think that the way you reset the battery also helped.

    Here are the parameters:

    reserve battery level (this is when the popup will appear).

    10%

    low battery (this is when the low battery action will be performed).

    8%

    critical battery level (my computer would die at this point.)

    7%

    low battery action: sleep, sleep (this customize to your liking).

    battery low notification: on (hold on).

    critical battery action: sleep, sleep (my computer died already in criticism.)

    1 GB memory

    32 bit operating system

    I have 2 problems with this laptop.

    !. I have lost the power cable and bought an expensive one online step (model: PA-1650-02 c. input 100-240v 1.5 put out a(1,5A) 18.5V 3. 5 = a)

    When I first plugg cord battery charge light came on the balance, then he started to come on and outside.

    the second problem is that the left mouse botton does not work, the work aside right very well. I went in the proprties to put it right, click on to, but who does not work either. I've updated the drivers but still nothing.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi aloum,.

    (a) what kind of mouse you are using?

    (b) the left button of the mouse seems to be stuck or it does not meet the click? This only happens with certain applications?

    Step 1: Test the mouse on another computer or another mouse on the test computer

    To determine whether the mouse or the computer is defective, follow these steps:

    1. test the mouse in question on a system that works, you know. If the problem appears to follow the mouse, you may need to return or replace the mouse.

    2 test a mouse you know is working on the computer in question. If the problem seems to stay on the computer, then the problem is most likely related to the software.

    In regard to the battery not holding charge

    Battery problems are often associated with the battery itself. If you encounter this problem, contact your mobile PC manufacturer. If you purchased the battery separately from the notebook computer, contact the manufacturer of the battery.

  • HP 15-r011na: laptop turns off when it is attached cable ca

    Hi, I recently picked up the upgrade of Windows 10 and since then have had problems with the laptop switching power, do not know if it is related to Windows 10 but seems a coincidence!  When I got close I use the power on the screen completely closes the button and the laptop.  When I turn it on it's ok, if I have the AC cable disconnected (i.e. using battery power) but if I have the AC cable the screen goes off, but then goes black and seems to have turned off again, and I have to press the power button to put on the.  Also, if I connect the cable so that the laptop is on it goes black immediately, and if I delete it the screen comes alive again.  Can someone tell me what's going on that I have no idea about these things, and it makes me absolutely crazy!  I would really appreciate some advice please.

    Hi @Greenjack67 ,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your laptop 15-r011na HP TouchSmart and the laptop turns off when it is attached cable ca. Here is a link to test and calibrate your battery for Windows 10.

    Note Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all devices of non-essential, as these can cause some problems.

    Plug the power supply directly into a different wall outlet. Do not connect it a power strip, surge arrester, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.

    You can try to use the Windows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows 10.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

    Here is a document that shows how update the drivers that do not work correctly with Windows 10.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you.

  • Accelerometer turns off when the screen is off

    When testing my application on a Z10 android port the accelerometer turns off when the screen is off. A partial wake lock does not turn the sensor back on. A wake dim screen lock is needed to re - turn on the detector. This behavior forces the screen to be all the time when an application requires the use of these sensors.

    An example would be a pedometer recording the steps throughout the day. In order to operate the screen must be turned on by the application that runs in the background. This will cause a fast draining of the battery and is not an acceptable solution.

    On Android, a partial wake lock is enough to keep the accelerometer running.

    I think this should be reported as a deficiency, a lot of motion carried since Android applications will be blocked by this and my app port is one of them.

    Tested on system Z10, model number STL100-3. Version of the 10.1.0.273 software

    The fix will appear in MR 10.2, 10.2.1 aka.

    I recently submitted a fix for the problem.
