• "Sleep" mode only works for a minute

  Hello

  I've recently set up a HP Pavilion a6530f PC and it seems to work very well.  When you press the symbol of the 'Moon' on the keyboard to put the computer in standby mode, it goes into the mode 'sleep' as it should.  The only problem is that after about 2 minutes, the computer returns, so not really enter the mode "sleep" and leaving the computer on when I don't want to.  Does anyone know how to get the "sleep mode" actually stay in mode 'sleep'?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Well, it is supposed to wake up if the mouse moves, etc. so if you walk by, or a heavy truck driven by could wake up. You can lower the sensitivity of your mouse or shut down then upward on the moving mouse feature.

  Moreover, I say this because I think that a6530f is that a desktop PC has so probably a connected mouse. You are in the Notebook forum however.

• screen on my Philips 109 B 6 monitor suddenly began to turn off after 15 seconds of inactivity in my operating system to Windows 7

  For four years, I had your desktop ThinkCentre with Windows 7 as operating system and a B 109, 6 of Philips monitor. A few days ago the screen started to go dark after 15 seconds of inactivity, whereas previously it took several minutes of idle time to do this. The screen can easily be brought back to life by pressing a button on my Logitech Classic Keyboard 200, but it is annoying and frustrating to have to do this or to continue to press an arrow key to stop the screen to go dark.

  I'm not aware of having changed parameters except recently, in a vain attempt to solve this problem on the basis of proposals on various Web sites. I'm aware of have installed recently all of the new programs. There is some automatic updates of Windows 7, and I was wondering if one of them is the cause of the problem again.

  All suggested diagnoses or treatments?

  Chances are it's time to replace your screen with a modern.

  However, first try this:

  1. Start the Globe
  2. Type Power Options in the text just popped up box
  3. Click on change plan settings

  Check the setting "turn off the display.

  My PC worked on Windows 8.1 with update 1 for some time, but is now back at the origin of windows 8.

  I "lost" my Live Mail access and access to the photos.

  The version that it came loaded a whole mass of tiles/apps that I didn't need and I lost a number of applications and shortcuts, I had.

  How can I go back to the situation, I got up to 4 days ago please?.

  Hi Derrick,

  You can manually check and install updates through Windows Update.

  Once the updates are made, you can install from Store Windows 8.1.

• After the upgrade from Office 2007 to Ofice 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while.

  After upgrade Office 2007 to Office 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while. When I turn on my computer, I get the splash screen indicating that Windows has finished unexpectedly and I would like to start in safe mode or normally (pluss a couple more choice...).

  Appears not to occur if there is activity going on--as if do me some work or have itunes playing music or I'm just surfing the internet. Curiously, it seems not to happen if I close Internet Explorer and Outlook.

  I shot all automatic updates for Windows Vista (32 bit) and Microsoft Office.

  Concerning

  B Odd Andersen

  Hi B Odd Andersen,

  I want to clarify if your computer seems to be sleeping or it completely closed after being idle for a while.

  Method 1: If the computer is in power saving mode, check if you can wake the computer from this State by moving the mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard.

  Method 2: Change the power to another and check to see if the problem persists
  Change, create, or delete a power plan (scheme)

  Method 3: check the logs in event viewer for more information on auto-off down

  Open event viewer

  What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer)

  Note: For your safety and security, it is not recommended to disable Windows Update.
  Activate the update or disable automatic

• Monitor may not turn off after setting the screen turns off after a period of inactivity

  Original title: control screen does not turn off

  My cell phone 6 year old runs today to Win XP Pro and IE7 and Firefox. My screen has been set to turn off after 15 minutes, but these days he keeps any. It stays ON all day.

  Attempted to solve by setting to turn off in 10 minutes, but it makes no difference, what could be the problem?

  TIA

  First of all, you don't want to do the hardware updates through the Microsoft Update Website.

  Secondly, there are a couple ways you can do this:

  1. go in the Device Manager (start > Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > Device Manager).    tedious, but this way you are sure.

  Double-click each item, having developed each sign, select the driver tab and choose Update driver, let windows search automatically, make sure that you are connected to the internet.  Do this for each item that you want to search for updated drivers.

  2. go in the manufacturer's website. For example, I use a Dell Dimension and move the driver Dell downloads Web site.

  If you mean hardware upgrade from Microsoft (not Windows which is software) you would search Microsoft.com site for driver downloads.

  Hope this helps, after back with your results, please.

• How to disable the Message box 'the current compatibility setting is not supported. Turn off compatibility view before you run this web page.

  Hi all

  Since a few days, we are on 11.1.2.3.500 and using IE 11. In IE 11, we can use Oracle EPM Suite only in Enterprise Mode, otherwise only "Bindows" appears. Now, my question is how can I disable (or remove) the Popup Message "the current compatibility setting is not supported. Turn off compatibility view before you run this web page. "because it's really embarrassing that this message whenever I start a planning application, Manager of calc or what ever.

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Kind regards

  You can go to tools > compatibility view settings and you should be able to remove the Web site / uncheck compatibility view so that you won't get this message

• Inspiron 9300 screen turns off after the Windows Logo screen

  Inspiron 9300 my wife became severely infected.  I thought I had some weird things start popping up of the problem decided to wipe the hard drive and start over.  Unfortunately, I don't have to restore disks when I bought the computer.  I install windows xp pro service pack 2 full retail version.

  Installation was not a problem until I installed the driver ATI Mobility x 300.  I followed directions for installation from the website, do the installation of xp followed of the dell system software update followed of chipset followed video driver.  After that whenever I put on, the screen turns off after the Windows Logo.  The computer is still running and if I plug an external monitor everythng is fine.

  I tried all the troubleshooting tips I've seen in this forum.  I did a full install twice. made of safety boots (all right), started in VGA mode (works fine), I ran diagnostics from fn on startup, including express, extended and video tests and they pass all the controls.  I'm sure it's a software problem, but have been unable to solve.  I've updated the ATI bios although when I run it says already installed and done one installs x 300 driver on 6 ttimes own.

  I know it must be something simple that I'm missing. My system is the Inspiron 9300 with 2 GB of ram and the mobility x 300 card.  Any help would be appreciated.

  
  

• Default configuration of the Windows updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer

  Hi, I just refreshed my laptop that I got a few drops FPS at random. Initially, it worked fine, but after a while before instaled Norton started to cause me problems. At this time I uninstalled it and when he asked me to computer restatr now, I did. Now I'm stuck with this message window loading. Restart the computer from time to time, but the message is always the same: failure of configuration of Windows updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer.
  Computer: hp pavilion n006sm
  Operating system: win 8 pre-installed
  At the moment I'm stuck on this window for over an hour and nothing has changed

  Seems that problem solved by itself. As I correctly uninstalled Norton, I just put my automatic updates and restarted my laptop again. He installed the updates with no problem and its working fine. Seems that Norton was really the problem, will keep you informed.
