X120e bad DIMM location. System does not return from standby mode

Hello. I have a X120e running Windows 8.1 Pro x 64.

I just put the unit to 4 GB of ram (2 x 2) of 2 GB (1 x 2). Whenever the upper DIMM Slot is used, the system will not leave standby mode and all power, including the battery must be removed from the system so that it works normally again.

Of interest, all the ram tested with Memtest86 +.

If it's important the system has the e350 CPU and a 320 GB HARD drive.

Let me know if you have any input.

Thank you!

Update: I've updated the BIOS from 1.16 to 1.17. The system now between and leave pending normally as it should, with the two occupied ram slots.

Of interest, none of the BIOS settings changed after the update.

  • Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

    My system worked properly on 25 April and then something happened and now the machine comes back with "Start menu options" but will not start in one of the listed options, modes result in the same outcome.  System also starts on the Vista CD.

    System begins to boot normally, shows the tracer Green Windows at the bottom of the screen, then the mouse pointer appears and moves but the rest of the screen remains black.

    That's it, that's all what he will do.  I checked the settings of the computer and ran the diagnostic tests available and everything seems to go fine and passes all the tests.

    I worked on my own computers for over 20 years and never been stumped before, but I must say this is a first, and I have no idea what to try to do it now.

    Help or direction is appreciated.

    original title: Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

    See if there is a way to tecover clean your data before doing a restore to conditions of factory that will wipe the drive of all.  You can use Knoppix http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (which you will need to do on another computer).  Starting on this disc and lla should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.

    So since you seem to have no other alernatives, you can try retoring the original factory computer options. However, if it is a hardware problem as could very well be the case, you can still encounter problems after even this drastic step.  Then you will need to consider in a reputable computer repair shop (NOT Geek Squad or or a any of these big store centers) or maybe even go back to the manufacturer for repair.   Check out several options and compare the costs, quality and guaranteed and then make your best decision.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A30: System busy after returning from standby

    My abrupt A30 Satellite developed a problem when returning from standby mode. The system busy "Hourglass" is constantly and will not die. I have reploaded the power management utility since all options in 'Properties of power Option' are grayed out except for the "Power Meter" tab. It did make a difference.

    This problem appears at the beginning?
    Maybe the operating system has been installed there several times and now the registry entries are corrupted.
    This is why the system busy hourglass may appear.

    I m not 100% sure that this will help, but maybe you need to reinstall the whole OS
    On the new OS installed should all work a lot faster

  • x 220 does not resume from sleep mode

    A few questions posted here look identical, but I did find something similar.

    About 10% of the time, the machine does not sleep.  When you open the cover, the power led Nightlight INDIGLO®, caps lock light, LED, mic mute light and light through a Flash every seven seconds or more.  No messages appear on the screen.  By pressing the power button does nothing.  After a forced shutdown (power longpress button), and then pressing the power button a times, I gives me the message on windows does not shut down properly with the choice to start in safe mode.

    I'm not sure of the cause... I've updated everything that I can think of, but the problem persists (on an irregular basis).  The battery is too loose in the slot?  A jiggling of the batterery during sleep will cause an abnormal termination?

    Name of the operating system Microsoft Windows 7 Professional

  • PC does not go on standby mode

    Hello

    I have a strange problem with my Pavilion (Vista 64 bit): it just won't go/stay in stand-by mode.

    Whenever I go through start panel into position mode it seems to go through the process of orders-by only're - wake up' the very next second pressing strongly it's fans and check the dvd player (no matter if there is a CD-ROM/dvd-rom in it or not).

    Same thing happens whenever I'm away from the PC long enough for him to enter standby mode automatically. He tries to stand by again after a certain period of time without ever stay in stand-by.

    I had the problem since I bought the PC a few months - but having already had to return to the first person that I bought right away I didn't go through the hazzle and take the second return - once again.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help!

    Sorry for the late reply.

    The question that you mentioned usually caused if the network adapter is set to wake the computer from sleep. If you are usign an always on Internet connection then there will be a constant activity in the network card and it wakes you up the PC as soon as you put in mode 'sleep'.

    Please, check the following and verify that the settings are correct.

    -Press the Windows logo and the R button to open the control box run.

    -Type devmgmt.msc, and then click OK.

    -It will open up the Device Manager.

    -Click on + sign next to network card and right click on the name of the adapter listed.

    -Select properties, then click the power management tab.

    -If the option "Allow this device to wake up the PC" is checked, uncheck the box that and click Ok.

    Try to put the PC to sleep/wake and check if it is in "standby mode".

    I would like to know if the procedure worked. Give Kudos if it works.

    In my view, a Toshiba Power Saver must be preinstalled and there you should be able to enable or disable the standby or hibernation mode.

  • C40 Cisco does not go on standby mode

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Cisco C40 where the codec simply is not going to go into sleep mode. I tried every possible thing to make it work, but without success. When I use Putty and you connect to it and sent the normal control: xcommand Eve turn on it goes to sleep. I also did a system reset, without success.

    When using the graphical interface and tell the system to go into mode after 1 minute, the system will remain forever.

    Anyone else having this problem, I have a second Cisco C40 who started doing this morning so I'm not sure what to do. I also noticed that the codec comes out of sleepmode the source presentation will change also to the main camera.

    Kind regards

    Cornelis Stoop

    The problem may be caused (in the screenshot eln_1.png) to have the Source of presentation to the source of the main camera.  This must be set on an other sources and not the main camera.

    Able to provide the whole xconfig one of the devices having the question rather than just two screenshots of the web interface, which do not show everything?

  • T500 does not wake from sleep mode

    My T500 (2241-3XU with Win 7 64 bit Ultimate) has never been able to wake mode 'sleep', once the lid is closed. I have finally returned to the use of hibernation, but I was just wondering if there is a new patch that I'm not aware of. I tried to find info a few years back before hibernation. Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Try to install the latest version on it. 1.62 should collaborate with the T500 however.

    You can also see if your BIOS is up to date.
