  • sound on laptop lost when it is connected to the docking station

    laptop connected to the docking station and audio comes through the audio connection [headphones] on docking station.  No sound on computer

    Hello

    ·         If it works well before? If so, remember to do recent changes on the computer before this problem?

    When you connect the laptop to the docking station, the default audio output device will automatically change to the docking station. Similarly, in the case of plug in the headphones on laptop. I suggest you to check if the audio device by default from computer speakers is properly defined. Follow these steps:

    a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click hardware and soundand then click sound.

    b. click the read tab make sure that the correct default audio device is selected. (For most users, the default audio device is pregnant.)

    c. If your default device is not set to the right audio device, on the read tab, select the appropriate device, click Properties, click the Advanced tab and make sure that the default Format is set to the value you expect. When you are finished, click OK.

    d. on the read tab, select the playback device, click set upand make sure that the configurations are set correctly.

    If the sound settings are set correctly and that your speakers are already set as default device, go to "Check if an audio driver is installed" now.

    e. Select the audio device you want as audio device by default, and then click set as default.

    f. click OK to save your settings.

  • Windows does not load and displays a black screen when it is connected to the power supply

    Original title - Windows Vista running on my laptop Sony VAIO

    Trying to turn on my laptop using the built in battery nothing happens.  When the laptop is connected to the power supply and turned on Windows does not.  It shows something in the sense that it does not properly off.  It tries to load back to a system restore point before the last stop, but seems to fail again during this process.  All that is displayed is a black screen. Currently the power on light is on, the battery light is on, but the drive activity light is off.

    Yet once again, I switched on the laptop and finally the Startup Repair process is automatically called.  After the display of the bar to attempt repairs, the system has been repaired successfully.  As a result, the I ran my Norton anti-virus, followed by Windows Updatesoftware.

  • Satellite C660-1DK overheating when you are connected to the dynadock station

    Hello

    I recently bought a Dynadock U10 (PA3575E-2PRP) docking station, to get a great full how to use my laptop 3. No luck, perfect functioning of Sony and Nec, Toshiba C660-1DK don't: (o)

    Hello

    Dynadock is certainly supported by C660. So this shouldn't be a problem.

    > After a few minutes, running fan a cooling of laptop fires throtlle full speed.
    > 70-degree temperature, C660 stop automatically

    Check that the cooling modules are free of dust. Dust affect the performance of module cooling and this could lead to a higher temperature.
    Spray with compressed air to remove dust from the fans.

    The use of graphics drivers from Toshiba is also very important! Drivers Toshiba supports the overheating protection so you need to check if the use of drivers Toshiba could help!

  • Tecra M5 - crashes when you use the docking station - fan at full power but no start the thread

    Hi all

    As I say, I have intermittent problems where the machine crashes when you use the docking station. Sometimes at the beginning of the startup of windows then stalls and powers of fan at full power. If I take off the base of the machine, it works fine.

    I bought this machine because I had one in my previous job and he had found great. However, my only previous also had this problem sometimes when lashing...

    Any assistance received very warmly.

    Thank you!

  • HP Probook 645 G1: Turn off the wifi when it is connected to the wire

    Hello

    I have a HP 645 Probook G1 A4 - 4300 M / 4 GB / 500 GB SSD/DVDRW/14 "HD/W7P 64B latptop.

    I also have a model Dockingstation REPLACEMENT-I10X.

    I have attached an ethernet cable on the docking station that works. My problem is that when I connect my laptop to the docking station. Get a priority above wired wireless. If the laptop still uses wireless unless I turn it off manually.

    Ofource I want to log out manually. I want the phone choose wired when wired and wireless when wireless.

    I tried a couple things:

    1. I went setings adapter--> advance--> Advance settings--> moved the connection to the lan network to a network connection wireless, top of page bottem. it did not work

    2. I manual put several metrics in connection properties (internet protocol 4 & 6--> Properties--> Advanced--> change automatic metric to manual and filled a small number to wired connection (No. 5) and filled a higher number (No. 250) to the Wi - Fi connection.) it did not work

    3. looked in the bios menu. There is no option to change the priority or something like that.

    Now, I always disconnect the wifi when I'm attached to the docking station (even tried plugging an ethernet straight cable to the laptop, but that has not helped either). Problem is when I unlock the laptop from the docking station, I have to manually reconnect to the wireless network.

    Additional info: since my laptop is always closed when it is locked on the docking station, I cannont press the WIRELESS button to disconnect or connect.

    Any suggestions help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello:

    See if the BIOS of your laptop computer has a LAN/WLAN, commissioning.

    On my HP Elitebook 6930p it is a parameter to enable the LAN/WLAN switch that automatically turns off the wireless card when an ethernet cable is connected, and vice versa.

  • My iPhone freeze with grey screen, then restart only. Subsequently, the Wifi is not available, I have to finish manually restart.

    My iPhone freeze with grey screen, then restart only. Subsequently the Wifi is not available, I have to finish manually restart to be able to use the Wifi. I have restart my internet and network settings, but the problem is still there.

    Hi there Turco911,

    Looks like your screen goes gray and then shuts down its own, and you must manually restart to get the wifi to work again. I save your device in iTunes, then restore it like new and verify that it works.

    How to clear your iOS device and then set up as a new device or restore from backups

    If this is the case, restore your backup either check it still works and just reinstalled software or circumvent the problem in the backup file itself.

    If when restored like new the problem persists, I would ask for your phone service:

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support, all the best!

  • T500 loses screen when ejected from the docking station

    At my office, I use a docking station with external monitor (DVI join). If I ejected from the docking station, my laptop screen darkens. The only way I can do it works to turn it off, eject and restart. It works fine then.

    I have the ATI graphics card, and I don't think that the switchable graphics works. Is it possible to use the integrated graphics card Intel when the battery power? This seems to be ideal.

    Any advice will be appreciated.

    Unfortunately windows don't remember installing icons when you switch your resolution. When you change the resolution would pass and spoil your icon arrangement.

  • X 200 with ssd OCZ blue screens at the start of the docking station

    The 200 x blue screens when the startup of the docking station. If I take the laptop to the docking station to start and then once booted dock the laptop is fine.

    The issue started happening when you I upgraded the laptop form a SSD OCZ vertex 2 drive from xp to windows 7 and installed.

    I tried to update the firmware on the ssd using this utility

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-69806

    The program showed that my ssd was running firmware version 1.29 and that he did not need to be updated.

    I also tried to update the x 200 to the latest version of the BIOS. Nothing seems to work.

    Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • computer not automatically standby (formerly titled "impossible computer automatically sleep when it is connected to the internet with modem cable")

    Hi, I noticed recently that my computer (Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005) is unable to sleep automatically when it is connected to the internet with a cable modem. Change the settings for my current power mode and try a different feeding regime (diagrams of Windows XP default power and power management, I created) only solves the problem for 2 days at most. I also tried to change the settings for the other power plans mentioned, and yet once again, the problem was only set for two days at the most. I also tried turning off my computer, restarting my computer, recording Powercfg /Restore Default policies in Run, saving sfc/scannow in Run, and again, I got the same result. Reset and power cycling the modem cable is not helped either. To help you better understand the problem, for example, if I had the date set for the screensaver set to 1 minute, the time for the monitor to turn off set to 2 minutes and time for your computer set to 3 minutes, the screen saver activate after 1 minute, the monitor turns off after 2 minutes, but the computer would not sleep mode after 3 minutes , even after an hour or more. I tried to check the Task Manager, and I have not noticed any process that would be interrupting the day before. However, I noticed that when I turned on the monitor by moving the mouse, even when the computer was unable to sleep and unplugged the ethernet cable from the cable modem and waited, the computer has entered standby as it should have.  I tried to find a solution for more than a week, contributions for this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. (Update: it seems that the problem is something else then my cable modem.)

    Hello

    Thank you for the update.

    This behavior can occur because of possible conflicts of third-party software, which includes the third-party security software.

    You can also temporarily disable third-party security software and firewalls installed on the system and check the issue.

    If disabling the antivirus software solves the problem, you may need to configure the settings of the antivirus as a result program. Please contact the software vendor for assistance in this regard.

    Note: be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking the issue.

    Note: When you perform a clean boot, you can activate services for the modem, network card and disable third-party services to check the issue.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  • Clock freezes in the docking station

    I have the docking of Milestone 2 and recently I found the clock freezes randomly while my phone is in host mode. The separator flashes but the time does not update. This affects the main clock display and the time in the notification bar.

    If I lift the phone out of the docking station or press the power button two times then the time updates immediately. This problem is intermittent, sometimes the clock works normally, at other times, it will freeze. Earlier tonight for example it froze, I lifted it out successor and it froze again. I repeated the process and it works correctly (for now at least). I restarted the phone, but the issue does not appear to be linked to the availability, as I experienced it immediately after a reboot.

    I have seen this issue a few times on the retail firmware, the Milestone 2 was released last year.

    This question seems to have been fixed with the update, which will be published shortly in Europe.

    I will announce when it is available.

  • T520: Unable to support more than 2 screens? (via the docking station)

    All,

    I have a problem, allowing more of 2 monitors. My T520 is connected to a docking station that has two outputs digital video that are connected to two monitors NEC.

    For some reason any when I go on Windows | Display settings | It does not allow me to activate all three display at the same time. Can I have one) two monitors on the computer screen or b) + 1 monitor.

    Whenever I tried to connect to the 3 screen, it automatically shuts the screen 2.

    Other colleagues with T420 not experience this problem. The T520 & T420 uses the same docking station so I don't think that is the question.

    My first thought is to update the video driver that I did but still does not. The T420 has a nVidia card while T520 has an Intel processor on board one.

    If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

    Thank you

    T520 with Nvidia Optimus can support up to 4 screens, while as the T520 with intel only the graphics card can support only 2 screens.

    If you need more screen support on the T520 of yours, you may consider usb2dvi, eGPU, Vidock.
