• Laptop will not go to sleep when the lid is closed

  Separated from this thread.

  Same problem here. My settings say that my Toshiba will sleep when the lid is closed, but half the time is not asleep and I can feel it's hot and turns on the fan. I am so frustrated with this new laptop and Windows 8.1. Looks like too many bugs in the software or something. More I am working on the new laptop the more problems that I find, like screen discoloration as well. The forums are useless. I do what they say, and the problem is the same. Forget the call from Toshiba. Needless. Nobody will help unless you pay them money to subscribe. What customer service?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your concern here at the Microsoft Community forum. Let me help you with your concern.

  This problem may occur because of any change in power on your laptop options. If the default is set to hibernation and standby modes, your laptop goes to sleep when you close the lid, but then the Hibernate timer comes in and wake up your computer first and trying to Hibernate. He cannot go to Hibernate directly from mode 'sleep'. Go into the power settings and either disable hibernation or set the timer on a higher value.

  To apply the same setting to all plans:

  1. Open Power Options by pressing the Windows key + X, clicking Control Panel, click system and security, and then clicking Power Options.
  2. On the Select a power plan page, click choose the cover.
  3. On the page define power buttons and turn on password protection , next to when I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, both when it is running on battery and when it's plugged in.
  4. Click on save changes.

  Tip: To save battery power and quickly resume working, select sleep. Sleep is a power saving state that allows a computer quickly resume the operation of full power (usually in seconds) when you want to start working again.

  To apply a setting to a specific regime:

  1. Open Power Options by pressing the Windows key + X, clicking Control Panel, click system and security, and then clicking Power Options.
  2. On the Select a power plan page, click change plan settings for the plan you want to change.
  3. On the change settings for the plan page, click change advanced power settings.
  4. Advanced settings tab, expand it cover and the Power button, action lid, choose what you want your mobile PC to do when you close the lid, for when it runs on battery and when it is plugged in, and then click OK.

  I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.

• Windows 7 will not change main display when the screen is off

  Hello

  I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on a computer laptop Dell Precision M6800, Nvidia Quadro K3100M graphics card.  I have a 3-monitor Setup: a monitor being the laptop LCD and the other two being Dell U2414h.  My laptop is on the far right.  I had these in extended mode with the installation of Garland Display Port 1.2 for about 1.5 years.  Due to the massive headache of configuring Garland DP1.2 is not not reliable (tons of forums about this) with these monitors, I recently bought a HDMI 2.0 cable so that I could run a U2414h off the coast of the DP1.2 port on my laptop and the other U2414h on the HDMI port on my laptop.  When all three monitors were turned on, I like my main screen for the monitor at the far right.  With the previous configuration of Garland, my main screen would move left to right like my monitors have been disabled (left to right).  With this current configuration (through DP1.2, the other via HDMI), my main screen does not move to my average when the left monitor, we stop, so when I disable my left monitor, I lose my taskbar and all icons (they don't move to another monitor).  Did someone else using a similar setup where they had this problem, and there a will?

  Thanks in advance!

• My iPad will not go to sleep.

  My iPad will not go to sleep.  I see the monitor dim light, and then turns upward. Something is ' wake up it "-so the battery always.  Is there any ideas on how to remedy this situation? I rebooted several times.  Thank you.

  Hi BenjaminQueens,

  Looks like you see the screen of your iPad Sun just before they would go to sleep, and then he'll light again so it will not go to sleep. I want to quit all applications running on the iPad:

  Force an app to close the iOS

  1. press the Home button twice quickly. You will see small glimpses of your applications recently used.
  2. slide to the left to find the application you want to close.
  3. push upward on the overview of the application to close.

  When you have done that reboot the device and test again the question:

• Pavilion dv6-1350us Entertainm: Pavilion dv6-1350 us running Windows 7 will not be closed

  Have not used my laptop for the last 45 days and have not installed anything new. W7, 64-bit running. Just used on these days and it will not be closed. When I stopped it just hangs and displays that says: "if it please do not turn off or unplug your machine. Installation of update 1 of 1 ". This can last for hours.

  I stop it manually with the power button which of course translates message when I start again that «Windows did not close properly»

  I thought that since I had not used the computer laptop or literally turned on for about 45 days, that maybe I was missing a few important Windows updates, but when I go to Windows update via Control Panel and click on Windows Update to search for updates, it "just hangs" it thus, showing never updates available. Last update of the W installed was 26/03/16 and laptop worked OK.

  Any ideas?

  I downloaded ccleaner pro (first edition) and scanned the hard drive. I checked 'fix all issues' and it worked! Whatever files or conflicts on the register or wherever was causing the 'hang up' were eliminated obviously that my laptop was able to stop. :-)

  Yes, I have same problem of yours, I've finally updated all those win updates, now that I started some bloggers advice what to do to solve these problems. I actually had a problem with a crash suddenly and blackout of screen and other unusual tracks on this desk, until the February MS cannot install updates. what I've done, I've tried the [FSC.exe] System File Checker, see him through YouTube "how to use FSC,"... Solved problems of 100%, but it depends on the number of files that can not be repaired, my results are minor just repair corrupt files... Try it...
