Unexpected (power off) stop on battery

Hi all

my laptop turns off unexpectecdly (without warning) when on battery, sometimes without realizing the battery low or critical level. When I do HP Battery Check with HP Support Assistant on my laptop, the result I get is that my battery is good.

Another question I have, is that my laptop doesn't go to sleep after a few minutes of inactivity, as it was set to do on battery or plugged in power. I would appreciate any information I can get on the resolution of these problems.

Thank you.

    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.

    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.

  • BlackBerry BB Q10 Q10 - difference between Power OFF and "battery pull out?"

    Hello

    Anyone has any info on what difference the phone sees between a switching OFF power and make a battery out?

    Apparently, some of the guys to BlackBerry customer service advise you to do a battery pull off when the phone is in MODE.

    Just curious to know what is the reason behind it.

    When you turn off your phone, keep everything intact until you turn on again. When you do a battery pull, he interrupts the operation of the phone and many temporary files, not necessary for the proper functioning of the phone, are deleted. In many cases, when there is something playing havoc on your phone it is found within these temporary files.

    Another method to do a battery pull should press and hold the power button until the BlackBerry is displayed on the screen. Other things will appear before that but if you continue to hold until it shows, the effect is similar to a battery with the phone powered pull. Note that pressing the power button to turn off the phone does not erase these temporary files unless you press and hold until the BlackBerry presents, usually about 15 seconds.

    I hope that helps you.

    Hi Thierry,.

    This issue does not appear with Windows that even after you perform a clean installation. So for me, it looks like a material damage. I would recommenmd get you in touch with the manufacturer of your computer and to do the repair.

    Do not hesitate to contact if you have problems with Windows in the future.

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) - power off when the AC adapter is connected

    I bought this laptop for my wife about 2 years, since about 6 months ago, that the laptop was randomly shut off without warning, this only seems to happen while the power supply is connected as well.

    I have read several other posts on other sites with people having similar problems.

    There are various suggested corrections, you must disable the duel core in the bios so that it works only on one heart and he spend dynamic low for fans. I did this about 2 hours ago and touchwood not a single switch off again. This however is not an acceptable solution, there is obviously much more slowly.

    Another suggestion has been updated the bios, I downloaded it now but am very worried to run it, this laptop can stop at any moment, lasting from a few minutes to a few hours. If it stops while updating to bios, I doubt that it would be good news. I don't want to make it work on the single core for the rest of the day/night to see if its stable and then go for it.

    Before that, can I make a call to the toshiba helpline, I read on the forums that this is as well a defect of design within the laptop and there's a reminder of some of the laptops in the Canada, I do not know how it rings true but still a concern to read and might be unacceptable to the owners of the A200.

    Others have advised that it is an overheating problem, it's that I reject, I running SpeedFan and showing a stable 47 temp and it allows to switch off the coast immediately when turned on, yes it could be due to dust build up, something I checked and cleared, it did not a difference for the frequent switch offs.

    Im not too well why it is only when the power supply is connected, I have not tried a different PSU, but those who have had the same problem try this and it has not solved the problem.

    When I unplug my power as well the battery seems last mabye 5 minutes at the most.

    Overall, Im very unhappy all this, toshiba is a brand of 'high' where you expect better quality and pay for it.

    If anyone has any suggestions please let me know, would be also good to hear talk of toshiba support on the issue.

  • The screen of my laptop turns off when my battery is low. Can I turn this off?

    I have the HP Pavilion n018sa 15. When my becomes low power (10%), the screen shuts off and I have to press the power button until it restarts. Is there a way I can stop my screen turn off without having to plug?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.

    I think that your computer is in hibernation or standby is (or tries), but you see it as screen go off.

    He must manage the bass and critical low levels of power - information management:

    You can also stop the computer to go to sleep/hibernate:

  • My 157 A60 loses power and cheated on battery

    A few weeks ago my power adapter A60 stopped working so I replaced it with a universal adapter. I checked if it was compatible with Toshiba laptops and plugged.

    When I use my dvd player, or burn videos to dvd the power of the adapter to the battery switches and I only have a battery installed in my laptop. It's weird because as soon as I remove the disc it switches back on current alternative.

    I'm assuming that the AC adapter is defective somehow because I never had this problem with the original Liteon power supply that came with the laptop.

    Does anyone have any ideas or ways to cure the problem? I'm fairly certain that the adapter is defective and cut the power off when the drive is in use, but it's a strange thing happens.

    Just to add - if your laptop goes off (as mine did!) blow through the grill and fan and remove dust. A straw is usually the case. It is solved the problem of disabling for me.

    Hello

    I suspect that your 'universal' adapter is not able to provide enough current when your laptop is important on this issue, for example when you use your optical drive. It is likely that your adapter has an overload protection system that cuts the power when a too heavy load is placed on it.

    Kind regards

  • HP Color LaserJet M277dw MFP: Disable auto power off after inactivity for HP Color LaserJet M277dw MFP

    What is the purpose of mobile printing solutions if you cannot activate your home printer?
    My printer stop automatically after 8 hours of inactivity and therefore makes it impossible for me to use mobile printing. The printer is connected via WLAN (without active ports to stop the closing).
    In the configuration, there are only options to stop after 2, 4 or 8 hours. No option on disabling of automatic shutdown.
    Pls do that for the people who work on the firmware updates, they must include an option to disable auto power off, many people are already complaining that and nothing has changed so far.
    Its just illogical. You make big announcements for HP eprint and other stuff, but your printers are not able to do so even if you could theoretically make eprint if your standing next to your printer all day.
    I just got this printer pluged and installed and already tired of this BS!
    I know that there is no solution, so just send it to the people who can change it.

    for all of you who read this post, I was in contact with the technical team of HP and they said that they don't give you the ability to disable auto power off on purpose, it is HPs energy-economy-policy to do and there are no plans to change this in the future
    in my case, I only WLAN's, yet is not automatically stop (although it should be), I guess I'm lucky that my router it ping every now and then and is therefore not stop
    If you can't fix it yourself with active ports and may not have at all, it will probably not option left than the back of the printer

  • Satellite Pro C50-A-1E5 loses power while stopping down

    Whenever I leave my phone ~ 3 months power off - completely put off, as in the case - for about a week, when I come back he has lost all power and needs to be recharged again. It's obviously quite irritating, especially because I bought it to replace my old laptop when the battery top broke.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Such behavior of the laptop can occur where some BIOS functions are active.
    You must disable in the BIOS, wake up options like Wake Up on LAN or Wake Up on the keyboard, etc.
    In addition, you must disable sleep & Charge (if available)

    PS: Don't forget save the changes in the BIOS.

  • Tecra A4 won't start no-switches power off after 3 seconds

    Hey all,.

    I really hope you can help me on this. I recently bought a step expensive laptop Toshiba Tecra A4 to Ebay. He said there is a disk failure hard only... it's not.

    When I try to turn on the laptop, the lights come on and the DVD player starts to turn... everything is normal. But then after about 3 seconds it stops before that it can reach the bootscreen - as I would remove the power cable.
    The very strange thing is that sometimes we'll tell every 1 15 try the laptop starts as it should be and start my Linux live CD. Then I can work for hours, and bad don't get passes nothing... until I want to turn it back on. Then the game starts from the beginning.

    I tried already to:

    -Remove the hard drive from default
    -remove the power cable
    -only remove the battery
    -replace the RAM or be one of the two
    -to remove the two RAM
    -remove the power cable and the battery during the night to reset the CMOS

    ... nothing has changed.

    I would be very happy if someone could help me. So far, I have found that the writings of forum without response to this problem in the WWW - if at least I'm not the only crazy :-)

    Thank you very much

    My friend had the similar problem, but a replacement RAM helped.
    In your case, it might be everything. (motherboard, etc.)

    The BIOS can be updated from windows OS since only based victory of BIOS is available for download The ASP (partner) would update the BIOS but to be honest, I doubt it s a BIOS related issue to me it sounds like a hardware problem

  • Still 98% battery power display, but no battery power

    I have win2k. The display of the power of the icon bar always shows 98% and battery case led flashes green.

    The laptop turns off when I plug it into the power connector. It seems there is no power supply to the battery. So I bought a new battery. but the problem remains the same.

    Thank you for your support in advance.

    Hello

    It seems that your electronic control gear is damaged!

    But as a first step, you can try to de - and reinstall the Toshiba power saver to set up a new power management profile.

    You can play is safe and the recovery of the laptop. This set the operating system to the factory settings and the system should work without problems! But beware, all your data will be lost after the recovery!

    Ultimately that all the solutions will not help, you should check the electronic control gear by the Service partner

  • M100 - flashing light power supply (ac or battery).

    Hello
    I just bought a laptop M100 a few weeks back and it was fine. The other day I was playing with the password Toshiba utility I ran into XP. I put a password on it for I think has the power on function. I then rebooted the machine and now it initializes more.

    When I turn it on, the power led (2nd from the left, between the AC-in and battery) lights green as usual for a split second, then flashes orange in a balance on ground. There is no display, no hard disk activity, and it will not power off unless I have the button for 10 seconds. The fan also seems shot at high speed right away, which does not occur normally.

    I have tried with and without battery, without hard disk, without RAM or battery cmos. Same problem every time! I can't even start up TOSHIBA start screen.

    Someone pleeease help me. I'm at a loss as to what it could be. Also, it seems that no one on the net have reported this problem before.

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

    More details: the capslock button light does not answer, but not the light of the FN key. By pressing any button on the keyboard results in a beep slightly delayed.

    Hello

    Well, firstly the password of Toshiba utility allows you to set two levels of password security user password and supervisor password. This function prevents any unauthorized access to your computer.
    What password do you have?
    As far as I know there are two ways to start the computer:
    Insert a password token before turning on the computer. The computer will boot normally, without displaying a prompt of password or enter the password manually.

    In addition, the second light on the left side is a power indicator. It lights up green when the computer is turned on. If you turn off the computer in recovery mode, this indicator flashes in orange (a second to two seconds) while the computer shuts down.

    Well, I put t know why you can boot the unit t, but please also check password settings in the BIOS. Here, you can try to remove this password.
