• HP Pavilion DV6: HP Pavilion DV6 Sleep transmit Mode after upgrade to Windows 10 (go to sleep after two minutes of inactivity)

  I recently updated my laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 10. The upgrade went smooth and everything seems to work fine except for one annoying problem. After approx. 2 min of inactivity my post laptop goes into sleep mode and disconnects me. I checked all my power settings settings settings/sleep/screen saver... etc and I finished all updates to windows. I do not see all timers anywhere that requires an adjustment. Any help would be appreciated.

  Note: The laptop wakes up fine with no problems.

  For those who are interested. I found the solution by activating the 'system unattended Sleep Timeout' and then by changing this day here. The timer seems to have a pre-selection of 2 min for some reason any that was causing the problem together.

  You can try to set the screen saver to zero and check if it solves your problem. You can also try to disable this program that displays the video by looking at msconfig under Startup.

• Windows 7 Pro will not restart if printer on.

  Hello

  When you click Restart, Windows 7 Pro will not reboot with a printer hp (L7680 or C309a) turned on.  The screen remains right on "Starting Windows".  Windows continues to load after that whatever printer is turned on.

  This problem just started.  Never happened before.  I could always click on restart without problem before.

  Any help?

  Hey joe_do,

  I see that you have a problem with the sequence of starting your Windows 7 Pro computer when one of your 2 HP printers are turned on.  How are these 2 printers connected to this PC?

  Looks like that devices can be connected to USB and somehow the computer boot sequence put the emphasis for USB on the internal HARD disk.

• 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.

• How can I make the computer sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity on the logon screen?

  Original title: How to sleep in the login screen?

  How can I make the computer sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity on the logon screen? Currently, on the login screen, white screen, but the computer is still running. Sleeping would save a lot of energy because the computer is used most of the time.

  Hi Phil.Ganchev,
   
  Using a laptop or a desktop computer?
   
  The reason for this question is, if you have a plugged AC adapter you must set power accordingly as opposed to laptop settings battery operated.
   
  I suggest you head over to the power settings and create your own power management.
   
  a. power by clicking on the Start button, open the Options click on the Control Panel, clicking system and security, and then clicking Power Options.
  
  (b) according to the plan you want to change, click on change plan settings.
  
  c. on the parameters of change in the plan page, choose "Put the computer to sleep" that you want to use when your computer is running on battery (if applicable) and when it is plugged.
  (Change in 5 minutes for the batteries and sector)

• More on RAM one 512 MB to 2 GB Windows XP Pro will improve performance?

  Hello & happy holidays to all!

  First of all, some info system for your reference.  (Computer was purchased USED (s) at the end of 2010).

  Desktop Dell Dimension 3000 (Internet modem cable connection)

  Windows XP Pro, SP3

  Intel Pentium 4 3.00 gHz CPU

  512 MB of RAM (256 MB x 2)

  40 GB HD (60% freespace)

  I noticed my computer becomes slow... cold boots / restarts, Internet connection, e-mail load, and even just to open Word or Excel, while offline.  A number of occasions, (using a stopwatch), I checked how long it takes to do just a restart.  From the moment where I press ENTER> key after entering my password, it took as long as 23 minutes for the system show 5 items in the to-do bar , etc., and the hard drive light to go out before I can even begin to do anything on the computer.  (All the desktop icons willl display within 10 seconds of a restart).  AV & anti-malware scans reveal no problem.

  My question is the following: upgrading the RAM from 512 MB to 2 GB [1 GB x 2] (acceptable according to the specifications of Dell), would provide a significant improvement in my computer speed & efficiency, or would I just lose money & end up to have to go and try to find a used computer with more memory?  Living on a fixed, disability leaves me with many options.

  Thank you for your time and suggestions!

  Considerably improve the performance? N °

  All you need to do is determine what process is hogging memory and/or resources. To do this, open the Task Manager and make sure that the process tab is selected. Click on the CPU. Then click again on the CPU. This will cause the greediest process in resources to display at the top of the list. You can do the same thing with use of Mem. In your next post, tell us what are the worst offenders of both.
  About the memory, here's a way effective to determine if there is enough (in other words, if your system is too much relying on the swap file):

  Open (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) Task Manager, and then click the performance tab. Then the three values under Commit Charge (k) Note: in the lower left corner: Total, limit and peak.

  The Total number represents the amount of memory you are using right now. The vertex figure represents the maximum amount of memory you made since the last boot. If these figures are lower than the value of the amount of physical memory (K), then you probably have lots of RAM. In case you want to study it more, you can run the Page queue Monitor for Windows XP:

  Usually, I found that this happens when installing .NET updates - if you give the machine 20 or so minutes to regroup and then restart, the problem disappears usually.

  I can watch youtube, read, listen to music... etc and after about 60 seconds of me not to touch the display turns on outside and all the audio and video stop.
  As soon as I touch the screen it wakes up again.

  Hello

  Is it in laptop mode when Toshiba keyboard Dock is fixed or in tablet mode only?
  Is it if the adapter is connected or only when the adapter is removed?

  The computer will automatically mode 'sleep' according to the sin of setting power options. To access this click
  Office-> Office help-> Control Panel-> system and security-> power options options
  (or Win key + X-> power options)

  Here you should find the option called display auto power OFF
  This feature automatically cuts off the power to the screen when there is no input of keyboard for a while

  You can also see the hybrid sleep feature that appears also in Power Options.

  In addition, I recommend check you the settings of Intel Display Power Saving technology.
  This feature is enabled by default and controls the current consumption b< optimizing="" the="" picture="" contrast="" and="" internal="" lcd.="" this="" can="" be="" used="" if="" notebook="" is="" running="" in="" battery="" mode="" and="" using="" the="" internal="" lcd="" display="">

  To access this feature, he must right click on the desktop, and then click graphics properties
  -> Select battery from the drop-down list in the power source, and then click Power.
  Then, clear the checkbox display energy saving technology and lick OK.

• Windows 7 pro key invalid after refusing to activate 10 forced installetion windows.

  I found that 10 Windows was installed on my laptop without my knowledge and decreased activation. It messed my Windows 7 Pro. My desktop screen saver will not keep an image, it turns into black. Now, I also get a message that my Windows is not genuine.

  After Windows 10 research, I would like to upgrade, but to get the message that my OEM key is invalid for activation. Windows 7 pro 64-bit came installed on my laptop. I ran Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool that shows the product key, but the first 2 groups of 5 numbers have asterisks no numbers. If anyone can help with this problem?

• Windows 8 Pro boots slow after windows updates

  I have a PC I built a year ago to game, and I've recently updated to Windows 8 by formatting the hard drive and installing Windows 8 Pro OEM on my gaming PC. I installed the OEM version, because I had to get a new drive hard that had nothing installed on it and it needed a new operating system installed on it. It worked fine on Windows 8 for some time, about a month, until I installed updates to Windows that were made available, and after they have been installed, the next time that I turned off and turned on my PC, the startup was significantly longer than the last time. It doesn't when I start now it goes to the black screen with the clear blue windows symbol, but the circle dotted which indicates that initialization is in progress is going much more slowly than before until I installed updates to Windows. It takes about 5 to 8 minutes to start now, where it used to take about 10-15 seconds before start. I checked all my gear and this is very good, and I even ran chkdsk /r and sfc/scannow to check errors of software in a command prompt, but nothing is. Nothing else happens when it doesn't start, another that it starts more slowly than before, no error screens or messages. My computer does not have problems to start, especially for my equipment I have, which is upscale, since this is a gaming PC, compared with the normal work or personal computers, and like I said before, it used to start very well until the last group of windows updates.

  Here are the specs
  Tough - 1 TB SATA 7200 RPM drive
  CPU - AMD FX-4100 Quad Core 3.6 GHz
  GPU - AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB GDDR5
  Power supply - 600W
  Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-M68MT-S2

  Someone at - it solutions, or everyone knows these same questions? I would like to solve this, because it's a huge disadvantage to wait 5 minutes for a simple boot. I don't know what update is causing this, I installed several updates of the same day.

• Video recording will stop after 33 seconds

  I bought this because I was always running out of space on my iPhone 6plus. I tried to use it today to record the events of my daughter.  When I went back to see her, she stopped after 33 seconds.  I tried to take another video and the length was 33 seconds.  I decided to watch the next time.  I started the video and after 33 seconds, the Red changed record button but the meter continued as he was recording.  When I watched the video, it was 33 seconds.  I did a few tests more.  The video has stopped saving to 33 seconds every time, but the continuous meter.  Everyone knows this or make me a bad device?  It is an iXpand of 128 GB USB 3.0 for my iPhone.

  I'm tempted to simply return it.

  I spent about an hour with the support of SanDisk today.  They were able to reproduce the issue and it is related to the amount of storage left on the phone.  When I started, I had about 340 MB of free space and which equated to about 33 seconds.  I deleted some apps, so I had about 840MB and it allowed me to save up to 6 minutes but it stops again.

  I'm a software developer so that I can sort of guess what happens.  As can imagine you, it is quite possibly using storage phone (a cache?) when recording and when it stops, immediately transfers the video to disc.

  I wouldn't have a problem with this behavior as a long time I didn't know that it was a restriction.  I bought this because it says, you can record directly to disk iXpand.  128 GB is a lot of video.  Unfortunately, with the current limitation, I'm in the same position as I was before the training.  I have to remove applications whenever I want to record a lot of video.

  Another anomaly, I noticed.  When the application reached the memory limit, it will stop recording but the ticker keeps it turns out that it is still recording.  This is obviously a bug and needs to be repaired.  You would think that there should be a way to clear the cache on the disk while recording, so he isn't running out of phone storage space.  If I were writing the application, I would check to see what my free space on the phone, then make sure that I took an amount of cache, which was less than the amount of available space and then continue to clear the cache on the disk I was recording.  This would require a couple of threads and I don't know if the OS is multithreaded or not.  I hope it is, but there may be a limitation there too.

  Support said they would escalate this problem and inform me of any solution, with which they came.  I'll mark this as answered, but I'll try to update this thread if they come up with a different solution.
