Dell :: Disable Automatic Wake From Standby When Lid Opens? Studio XPS 13

Jul 11, 2009

I just received my new Dell Studio XPS 13 with the integrated NVidia 9400G graphics and came across a somewhat annoying problem.

When I put my computer to sleep and shut the lid, then as soon as the lid opens, the computer wakes up from standby.

I dont want it to do this and would rather press the button manually......

Dell Latitude E6530 :: Won't Wake Up - Goes Into Standby After A Few Minutes Of Inactivity

Apr 1, 2013

I got a Latitude E6530 with an E-Port II a few weeks ago. In general it's great but I have had one annoying problem a few times:

The laptop is docked with the lid closed, and two external monitors, and an external USB keyboard and mouse connected. It's running Windows 7 Ultimate.

The laptop goes into standby after a few minutes of inactivity.

When I press the power button on the dock to resume from standby, the external monitors stay in standby mode and the mouse and keyboard don't power on (no num lock light or laser on the bottom of the mouse).

If I undock the laptop and open it, the screen stays off and it doesn't respond to keyboard or touchpad input, even after several minutes. However the power light is on and the hard disk light occasionally blinks. The only solution is to power off the laptop by holding the power button for a few seconds.

Note that this doesn't happen every time that the laptop is woken from standby, it's only happened 3-4 times in a month. The Windows logs don't show any errors either.

Dell :: Studio XPS 13 Freeze On Wake

Mar 15, 2010

My SXPS 13 just freezes on wake up randomly. I am running Windows 7 x64. I recently had the motherboard replaced for a different issue but I can not remember if the freezing problem happened before the motherboard replacement.

Did anyone figure out how to fix the freezing issue? Is it hardware related? I have one month left on my warranty.

Dell Studio 1735 :: Died After Being In Standby Mode For An Hour

Nov 4, 2014

My Studio 1735 has been quite reliable, until today when I closed the lid and left it for an hour. When I came back it simply refuses to switch on at all, so I checked the battery (full charge) and the adapter (green light) so all power sources look good. Briefly, the button on the opposite side of the laptop from the power switch did show a white light, but that's died as well now! I removed the CMOS battery in case it was a logical problem, but it made no difference.

Dell :: Inspiron 1464anyone Know If It Opens Flat?

Mar 13, 2010

Anyone with the new Inspiron 1464 know if the lid/screen can open flat? (180 degrees)

I've been looking at getting a notebook to replace my 700m 12". This new 1464 seems to be the lightest comparable dell (since Dell isn't making 12" anymore, and the 13" actually weigh more than this new 14"; also the 11z is more of a netbook power-wise) .....

Dell :: Chat Support - Anyone Know What Time It Opens?

Feb 17, 2009

Dell doesn't have the hours posted anywhere in their support section. I just get a message saying "All chat reps are busy with other customers OR the queue is closed."

I don't like dealing with their reps on the phone because they're reading from a script and it's VERY annoying.....

Dell Vostro 1500 :: Browser Opens But Won't Connect To Sites

Feb 7, 2013

I have an older Vostro 1500, which has generally been pretty reliable but because of it's age probably qualifies for hospice care.

I can open my browsers (Firefox or Explorer) but no websites will then open as usual.  I've run virus scans, malware scans, and even de-fragged.  Does this sound terminal?  Is there anything else I can do?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Close Lid With Do Nothing Option - Y410P Opens Up Programs Randomly

Jul 6, 2013

Just received my laptop today. I am playing around with it, but I have found a glaring and obnoxious problem. If I can't get this fix I will have to return it.

I have the option of "Do Nothing" on when lid is closed. However, I found out that the laptop will just randomly open files/programs/apps. I have the laptop sitting on my table. There isn't any rocking or nudging. Is this due to poor planning on this laptop? The laptop isn't even a touch screen so what is going on?

Dell Inspiron 1110 :: Automatic Startup Without Selecting OS

Apr 10, 2013

I own a Dell Inspiron 1110 which  I had since 2009 with no problems.  I recently had to use the original Dell system disk to install the win os, and I also used the driver disk to reinstall them.  I have been recently using my computer with win 7 Home  Premium on it , everything works ok, except that when I turn on the computer to start it I must now select windows 7 to boot the os.  Before the machine would automatically show the Dell logo and then startup without me having to select the os.  Well I decided to install my Professional win 7 os today.  I thought that it would automatically boot to where I needed to only put in my password, but instead it does the same thing as win7  Home Premium it makes  me select the os. So my little question is what do I do to get a startup where I do not have to select the os.

My laptop model is DELL XPS 11. when i press the power on button, the Dell logo came out and it loads "preparing automatic repair...", then the whole screen turned black, there is nothing on the screen but I can only see the mouse cursor.

What did i do?I rebooted the laptop and immediately pressed F12 to go into diagnotics. After scanning, there was an error code 2000-0142 and the error message was Hard drive 0 - short self test unsuccessful. I even tried to use recovery media to factory reset my laptop, but it failed.I did not open up my laptop to check for any cable connection problems, because I dont know if it will void my warranty. My laptop is still under warranty.

Acer :: Aspire 2930z Automatic Power Off

Mar 3, 2010

I have Acer aspire 2930z with Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit) installed, the problem I face is sometimes, when I play games on it (the Need for speed undercover). The laptop gets very hot and automatically goes power off, I have to unplug the AC adaptor wire, replug and then only I can switch on the pc or else if I try to switch on without un plugging, nothing happens.

This is a problem for what I am really worried, well sir, I use my laptop with my battery but it is connected to electricity all the time as we have some electric break down problem(s) here, so do you think the pc gets heated because of battery plugged?

Infact before when I got this laptop new, I used to play for 3-4 hours the game and nothing used to happen.

I bought the laptop exactly a year back in march 2009.

I have 4 GB or ram, 320 GB hard and 2.17 dual core processor.

Apple :: 's Automatic Graphics Switchingnot Optimus

Apr 19, 2010

Up until recently, many suspected that Apple was just using Nvidia's Optimus technology for its new 15" and 17" MacBook Pros. However, there are key differences which prove this cannot be the case, and Apple themselves have said their technology is different. Unlike Optimus, which sends data from the discrete graphics to the IGP framebuffer, and hence needs to keep the IGP on in discrete graphics mode, Apple's solution powers down the IGP entirely. This means that Apple must actually be using a hardware multiplexer at the back end, just like in all switchable graphics before Optimus.

As far as I can tell, Apple seem to have pulled a coup d'etat with their multiplexer, though, because their switching is supposedly just as seamless as Optimus. I'm guessing that Apple runs both adapters for a short time before making a transition in order to avoid a noticeable delay or flickering. I'd be interested to see how they got over the issue of blocking programs, though.

In any case, Apple's solution has the clear advantage of lower power consumption when running the discrete graphics. However, this comes at the cost of being entirely reliant on Apple's proprietary technology. In particular, Apple hasn't released switchable graphics drivers for Windows, so you're stuck with discrete graphics only if you have some need for dual-booting with Windows. Additionally, Apple's technology doesn't seem to give you a way to change which applications run on which GPU. This means that even if you have a 3D application that you know will run well enough on Intel's GMA HD, you're still stuck using the discrete GPU.

Dell Inspiron 7720 :: Unable To Boot Due To Black Screen - Preparing Automatic Repair

Dec 4, 2014

My mums computer has ended up in a Black screen "Preparing automatic repair" loop and therefore will not boot :(

None of the repair options work from the boot options etc, so I need the OEM win 8.0 installation disk, so that I can at least boot to safe mode and maybe correct from there once out of the boot loop.

HP Pavilion G6-2293sa :: Keyboard Not Working After Automatic Update

Jun 25, 2014

I have an HP Pavilion g6-2293sa Notebook PC, which updated itself automatically last week and as a result the keybard stopped working completely.  
 
I reset the PC to an earlier time point but this did not work.  HP's support topics suggested uninstalling my keyboard river, which I did, and then downloading  'original drivers' - but this does not come up as an option on the download page.  Likewise, there is no available update under the Driver - Keyboard, Mouse, and Input Devices link.

When the time has elapsed for my sleep settings, only the display goes to sleep.  The computer and the keyboard lights stay on.  Computer will go to sleep when I hit FN/F4, but because the automatic sleep settings don't work, my computer often stays on for long periods of time and can get very warm.
