Windows 7 power indicator problem

Hello... I have a problem with my windows 7, whenever I use it for a long time and then it off via the start menu, the power light is still on and I hear again the fan running despite the display saying it is turned off and then blacj. In order to close it completely, I need to hold the power button and I know it will be bad for my laptop if I still force closure with button / stop. Curiously, it doesn't happen when I use my laptop for a long time, perhaps more than an hour... But if I use my laptop for a few minutes, there is no problem with power indicator. Can someone help me with this please?

P.S. I am a newbie in this then I would be happy if you could explain it in the easy way

Hello

I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

What is the brand and model of your computer?

Thank you for details on the issue.

I also know that the inconvenience that you are experiencing due to shutdown of Windows problem. I will definitely help you.

This problem may occur because of corrupted or incorrect power settings.

I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

Method 1:
Run troubleshooting of power utility and check.
Reference:
Open the troubleshooter of power

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-power-Troubleshooter

It checks things like settings timeout of your computer, which determines how long the computer waits before turning off the display or enter the mode 'sleep'. These settings can help you save energy and extend the life of the battery in your computer.

If this does not help, use method 2.

Method 2:
Create a new power plan and check the issue.
Reference:
Change, create, or delete a power plan (scheme)

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/change-create-delete-power-plan-scheme#1TC=Windows-7

I hope this information helps.

Please let us know if you need more help.

Thank you

  • Power Supply problem when installing Windows 7

    So I'll keep this short and to the point. I was upgraded yesterday from Vista to 7. Has made all the necessary updates and restart before installing 7. While it was installing, I weppe out of the room, came back and my monitor was empty... Silly me, I thought it was a reboot during installation. Futher glance, the monitor is in standby mode and the PC itself has been disabled. I waited about 10 minutes and it was always off. So I hit the power button, and it will not turn back. Tried the flipping of switches, different cables. Even called tech support, to get your warranty has expired and its $ 99 for me you tell the problem... Then he became the Lady on the line, telling me something I already knew... I got a power supply problem and I had to mapy 340.00 to repair... My question is this... It was just the stars lining up properly and my diet is to bite the dust while I have been upgraded or is there more behind it?

    A few days ago, I was trying to low loading part of the steam.  My download speed is 30 kbs, obviously not good.

    I did some basic checks, malware, viruses, etc., but did not find any problem.  I did a diagnostic check and got a BIOHD-8 error code, which indicates a hard drive problem.  I decided to try to reset the computer back to the factory setting before changing the hard drive and once that I made and updated windows Vista for several hours, I restarted the diagnosis and he came clean.  Then I updated my software, including steam and a few games.  Downloads were fast and had no problems.  Later that night the computer started to shut down randomly, and I was unable to run any games.  Thinking it's maybe a power supply problem, I have replaced my graphics card with an elder who needs less energy.  I am able to run without any problems so far.  So, I'm looking for help in identifying my problem.  HDD problem, power supply, something else?  Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Hard to say without proper trials.

    You can use a hardware monitor HW Monitor to monitor tensions it is: http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html
    But there is no software that can test a power supply.

    You can get a tester of hardware like this too: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16899887005

    But there is really no of it will predict fails if the power supply, if you overloaded it, if its duration in time high, or if the power supply is a device of poor quality that can be subject to failure.

    You can also check that your power cable is comfortably installed on the computer and not frayed.  Try a different wall jack where there are fluctuations in power.

  • Intermittent operation (especially just a power indicator light flashes) on WRT-150N

    Anyone know if these symptoms mean that my router is dead all just please? It runs for about a week or two and then the power light flashes quickly. It is then assigns IPs constantly, whenever I have try refreshing the DNCP on my Mac (or Linux).

    I can get it to keep the constant power indicator by pressing reset while you insert the power supply plug, but then it sets itself simply IPs again.

    It broadcasts its radio very well at all times.

    Connect to it with a Mac just translates what OSX calls a 'time of connection' which seems to be MacSpeak for ' we tried connecting but your router is assigning its IP address, so we used to bother Cuatros "cos you will not be able to use this connection"

    If I leave it off for a few weeks, I can connect again, and sometimes it works fine but only for a week or two. Then the power light flashes and it will not assign an IP address most.

    It doesn't have the latest firmware, but it SEEMS a little more like a hardware problem than a firmware the firmware seems to be working fine when I connect it on the occasions where it runs correctly.

    It would seem that the problem is indeed with the router. Try to perform a 30-30-30 reset and then check if the router will have now a stable performance. In case the router still does not work, then you can either: contact technical support for assistance or to replace the router with a new one.

  • Windows Media Sync pre - problem with MP3s converted to 128 Kbps

    OK, I connect my pre in training mode and it appears in Windows Media Player fine. I copy a lot of music to synchronize (all in MP3 format), defining the conversion to 128 Kbps. All music copy normally at the front. However, in the front music player the only music that appears is music which was already 128 Kbps on my computer library - everything that should be converted to say 226 Kbps up to 128 is not displayed. During playback of the music on the meadow of in WMP, it arises. Even when the Pre opens in player mode in windows Explorer, the files show up, even those who don't appear in the music player on the pre. All MP3s are there on the pre, but those who had to be converted to the size of 128 kbit/s does not appear in the music player. If I converted more large MP3s size up to 128 and synchronization, they appear in the music player, but who will use all of the memory on the Meadow quickly enough. What gives? Any ideas? I prefer really do not have to use iTunes, assuming it would be same this problem.

    mikeweb, I do not ask me again for you, but are you sure that Windows Media Player is not ripping the songs in the default .wma format?  Unless you change the tab "Rip Music" in the section Tools/Options of Windows Media Player by default .mp3 songs with being ripped to wma.

    The Pre will refuse to play songs in .wma format, but given that you use flash, the song will be like a player play through Windows Media Player easily even if it is a .wma format!

    BTW, pulling the cable while a connection is active is not a really good idea... others indicated problems caused by this action.  The good way is to "eject" the pre through the USB Windows icon in the tool bar before disconnecting.

  • Satellite L305D-S5892 - Windows has encountered a problem

    Hello

    I have an I have a Toshiba-L305D-S5892
    With Vista Home Prem 32

    I have a few problems and am currently blocked.

    Each problem below, is a problem that I met after taking a few steps.

    * The 1st problem *.

    A few hours ago my screen was frozen just after I tried to install this codec from microsoft, so the only option I had was to do a hard reset.
    When my computer back on, I received this message:

    Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer.

    This error may be cause of disconnect a device removable storage such as an usb external drive while the appliance is in use or by defective as a hard disk hardware or the CD-ROM drive which is a failure. Make sure that all removable storage is properly connected, and then restart your computer.

    If you continue to receive this error message, contact the manufacturer of the equipment.

    File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe

    Status: 0xc00000e9

    Info: An unexpected I / 0 error has occurred.

    I didn't have any usb device or removable in media.
    I can only access my utility series at the beginning, which is this menu: hand-Advanced-display-security-Boot - out

    * 2nd problem *.

    I opened my laptop and released the CD / DVD + RW, he started upward and now I get this message:

    For Realtek RTL8101E/8102E PCI - E Ethernet Controller v1.07

    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable.

    PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM.

    No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key

    * 3rd problem *.

    I downloaded the NEOSMART repair Cd.

    Once I'm in the System Recovery Options, it tells me to select an operating system. However it has not traded. If I press drivers to load, then a message tells me to insert the media, and then select drivers. I almost 'ok', and then am taken to explore, when there are a few system files and files (all empty)?

    I'm confused... any help?

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a problem with the system eventually installed the HDD failures.
    Why?

    Due to the issue described in point 2.
    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable error is displayed because the phone didn t find the installed operating system and try to boot from LAN.
    This happens especially if the HARD drive was not recognized by the BIOS.

    My recommendation;
    Access the BIOS and check if the HARD drive is listed there.
    If this isn't the case, then you will need to replace the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

    If the HARD drive is listed in the BIOS, then take a recovery disk and try to reinstall the OS again.
    If you have no recovery disc, then you can order it here.

    Hi Konyga,

    If you already have a warning on the internal HARD disk before Windows starts I would recommend sharing it and backup all data as quickly as possible.

    Is your laptop still under warranty?
    If Yes, you can get a new HDD to an authorized service provider. It would be free because it s covered by the warranty. All you have to do is contact with an ASP.

    On this path, it is not easy to say anything. Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then restart the device. The unit should be recognized and installed correctly.

    If you want to create data CDs using windows options please check disc recording option. Check the properties of the drive and check option under the recording tab.

  • How to manage Windows Vista power management features

    Hi guys

    I searched a bit in the technical knowledge of the Toshiba and found a very interesting article on Windows Vista power management features.

    * [How to manage Windows Vista power management features | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD84026Q0000R01.htm] *.

    The fact is that you will not find one tool of Toshiba Power Saver on Vista as on Windows XP laptops and the parameters energy saver is a bit hidden in Vista power saving settings.

    But you can also control some options as a method of cooling or power saving Mode.

    I think that it could be interesting for some people here in the forum!
