Windows 7 turns adapter wireless off when ethernet is plugged.

I am running windows 7 on my laptop, and whenever I plug an ethernet cable into it automatically turns off my wireless adapter. I want to use networks wired and wireless at the same time but cannot find a setting to stop windows to do this. Any ideas?

You have a laptop HP or Compaq? If so, check your BIOS settings. Some portable HP/Compaq have a setting in the BIOS for LAN/WAN switching. It's the Wireless Assistant HP support on my HP laptop.

  • Windows Vista using Windows features turn on or off does not

    I am trying to turn on IIS in Windows Vista using the Windows features turn on or off. I check the box IIS and click OK. Then I get a message that says "Please wait while the features are configured. This may take several minutes. "There is a progress bar but it is blank and there is a Cancel button, but it is disabled. I tried to create a new user account, and it does not solve the problem. If it's any help, when I use the Task Manager to end the task, he said something along the lines of "this programming is waiting for a user input. How can I solve this problem? Is there another way to turn on IIS?

    Sorry I have not responded earlier. I never saw your post. Maintenance has been done on the forum yesterday and your message appeared as if by magic.

    There are many problems with vista that will most probably never be fixed. If they could have fixed them easily Microsoft would not be rushed on Windows 7.

    The only hope would be SP3 but it seems unlikely.

    It's a shame because that Vista could have and should have be the best OS to date, but because of all the problems, complain and impatient people and $$$ along Windows 7.

    No need to throw your laptop Vista in the drink!

    I got rid of 98% of the problems in this way.

    When I bought my last laptop I paid extra for the OS DVD and reinstalled the operating system after SP2 came out (and was very happy also to get rid of the full factory image of... Dell put on my system).

    SP1 was on my DVD of the OS, so I bought SP2 from Microsoft (it costs $4 more delivery charges) https://om2.one.microsoft.com/opa/Validation.aspx?StoreID=1a7e5dd8-0088-46ce-a7d3-8fa1ab523be0&LocaleCode=en-us and after installing the OS, I installed SP2 before the drivers, utilities and Applications, in that order, and most of the problems have disappeared.

  • T530 Windows 8, cannot turn Adaptive dimming off

    I went thorugh these forums, but it seems that none of the solutions work on my T530 about try to disable adaptive dimming off the coast. I defined the characteristics of graphics power Intel to the 'sector' and the 'Maximum Performance' settings, then I also disabled the Adaptive gradation in Windows 8 settings (made even a new profile where I put on the maximum brightness in the settings and turned off at the gradation Adaptive.) power. Nothing helps. Whenever I pass a program with the darker background, for example Spotify, the occultation happens, switch back and it will brighten up the screen. It's makes me completely crazy.

    Is it maybe a problem with the drivers of Windows 8? Any ideas what to try next?

    Never mind. It seemed that the new parameters of entry into force until after a reboot.

  • IPhone 5 s screen does not turn off when it is plugged in to the charger.

    Hi all

    I use Iphone 5s from the last 4 months. Recently I came across this situation. Sometimes I see screen only turns off when its plugged into the charger. After a few hours of mobile will be turned off. Sometimes I manually press the power button to turn off the screen.

    Please let me know how to solve the problem.

    Kind regards

    Manju!

    Hello there, Manjunath K P!

    Thank you for joining the communities Support from Apple! Looks like you're having a problem getting the phone to automatic locking. I know that I want my iPhone did not stay when over and have the screen lock correctly. You can, of course, that your Auto-Lock is set up correctly. Your range of choice of automatic locking from 30 seconds to 5 minutes before locking the screen, or you can choose never so that it does not lock. To change the settings, tap the settings icon, click the general button. Tap the AutoLock option and choose your preference.

    If these steps do not work, and you still do not see the iPhone Autolock when you're in charge, you can go to settings > general > reset and then press reset all settings. This removes all the data. For example, if you have 16GB of music, videos and photos, this option will not remove. What this does is actually reset some of your settings to factory default. It is not a complete withdrawal of the parameters. It deletes all of your preferences for Wi - Fi, Bluetooth, do not disturb, Notifications, general, sounds, brightness & wallpaper and privacy.

    Once that is done, go ahead and try to set the automatic lock again and see if it works.

    See you soon!

  • should I turn the printer off when you are not using it?

    you just buy new printer - HP envy 5530 - need to know if I need put it off when you are not using it or if it passes in mode "sleep"?  other printers I had went to sleep mode however cannot locate this answer in the FAQ - like entry - thanks ~ ) husband

    Welcome to the mgchandler forums,

    I saw your post on want to know if you should be powered down the printer or if it won't fall in the mode 'sleep'. My best advice would be to turn off the printer by the power button if it will not be used for a period of time, for example during the night. Regards the mode "standby", the printer goes into standby after 5, 10 or 15 minutes of inactivity.

    • To change the settings for sleep mode, go to the front screen of the printer and press settings (wrench)
    • Contact preferences
    • Press the arrow down and on Standby Mode when you see
    • You can now change the time of mode 5 to 10 to 15 minutes before

    I hope I helped answer your question!

    Have a great Tuesday

  • Windows 7 turns the display off, but doesn't go to sleep

    My Windows 7 will not more in mode 'sleep'.  It will turn the display at 5 minutes (by the Power Options settings), but it won't put the computer to sleep after 30 minutes.  The screen is off, but the hard drive flashes.  The power light on the computer is turned on, not the sleep mode color amber.

    If I choose Start, stop, sleep, the computer enters mode "Eve".

    1. click on start and open Control Panel.
    2. open Power Options then select the option to change when the computer sleeps.
    3. click on change advanced power settings, under Multimedia settings make sure that you don't have to stop the idling to sleep

    I have a server poweredge R710 Dell with a PERC 6i controller. Currently, there are 3 installed disks than RAID 5 and are 0-2, all of the listed physical disks are online with no hot spare.

    My question is: I don't have 3 disks to install on the server exactly the same readers who are in the current configuration. Do I have to turn off the server to install these drives?  (I'll use OMSA to develop the existing single VD configured.  I saw a post that says not to shut down the server, so I am just wanting to make sure that everything I do is go on the server, install the new disks in slots open while its engine to the top and then make my other functions in OMSA to extend the RAID.

    Thank you.

    You never turned off to introduce new disks, except IF you are migrating a VD together for another computer or controller.
