  Hi Dave,.

  You have the "Toshiba common Modules" installed? They must first of all for many models of Toshiba, and power settings module is an add-on for that.

  If you do not have the appropriate restoration or the utility CD handy, the drivers can be downloaded from the Web from Toshiba website.

  I hope this helps, let us know how you go

• What is the definition of inactivity in the power settings?

  What is the definition of inactivity in the power settings? Lack of information provided by a user or a process does not? If a computer runs a scan of disks and a user does not input is an active computer or not?

  Hello

  Idle refers to the question of whether or not a device is used. This could be due to a lack of user input. For example, if the user is running a disk check, the disc is in use and is not idle. If the computer has been idle and the hard drive was not used, then the idle development would come into force.

• When you use Windows Live Photo Gallery SCREENSAVER, monitor off, regardless of power parameters. The power settings work with all the other screen savers.

  Windows Live Photo Gallery screensaver does not extinguish whatever my power settings.  This is the case with Windows Live Photo Gallery.  When you use any other screen saver, the screen turns off according to the way in which the power settings are defined.  It is quite frustrating because I prefer to use as my screen saver Windows Live Photo Gallery.  But he will stay indefinitely if I stop it manually.  Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?   Thank you.

  At the time where I got Windows 7 on my Z580, there was a management framework for the Lenovo power which enabled me to have only my battery charge up to 60% of its max capacity to prolong his life.

  Hello
  where did you changed them? In the BIOS or in the Toshiba HW setup?

  I suggest you go into bios after turning on your machine. You have to hit just F2 Ant then in the search for bios for setting "all default setting" or something with "bios setup defaults" to reset your bios settings.

  After that, your computer should start up again.

• In XP, do not see the options of hibernation in the power settings

  I have an acer computer and it crashes. I was told to try to disable the hibernation option. I went to the power options and could not find it. So where should I go? I've tried everything, and it crashes. I can only work in safe mode now. Sucks big time. Thank you

  Hi tomCunningham,.
   
  This problem can occur because Windows XP does not allow a computer hibernate if Windows XP does not recognize a specific hardware device.

  Method 1: To resolve this problem, contact the driver manufacturer to inquire about the availability of a driver that correctly implements power management features.

   
  Method 2: Try the steps in the section "Let fix me it myself" in the following article to resolve this problem:
  How to disable and re-enable hibernation on a computer that is running Windows
  Note: The steps in the article are also well worth for Windows XP.

I did the settings or power options. tried both recommended hp and energy saving. waited for several minutes, but neither the screen became decrease or stop. It was plugged and I slept something, but I knew he would go to standby mode after 15 minutes, but when I woke in the morning, he was still on with its full brightness for nearly 6 hours! That's what really shocked me, and then I checked for everything on google, but couldn't find anything. So please help me. Why is it so. I didn't install anything, nothing updated.

  Please update the latest version of the BIOS for your laptop and also check if your laptop screen is turned off when the unit works only with the battery.
  Go to control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options\Edit Plan Settings and configure the parameters of the battery and check if the display turns off. In case it does, you can try then configure the parameters of the plan when the unit is plugged.

  Hi George,.

  ·         What type of port is the wired mouse?

  ·         Are you using wireless or wired mouse?

  It seems to be your USB controller in the PC pick it up or interference. Cut everything on the Volume control and bring them both to see if you can narrow the problem down to a specific entry.

  Try to connect the mouse to another USB port. Remove any external device connected to the computer except keyboard and mouse and check.

  Uninstall and reinstall the latest drivers of sound card on the manufacturer's Web site and check if it helps.
