PC Isn't Powering On
Dec 16, 2011I installed a new pc for a friend of mine and it wouldn't start. Although I have basic knowledge in PCs and installing the necessary partswiring needed to make the PC functional, I have installed a couple of PCs before this one and worked fine. Now I'm confused with this one. - When I turn on the PC the fans (cpugpu) slightly move and then stop. My guess is that the system for some reason isn't receiving any power. I have also tried using a different PSU (ZALMAN 850 watts) and I still got the same result.

Jan 12, 20121) I recently designed a software application to run on a personal computer running windows 7 home premium. This computer has another monitor connected to it through vga cable. Everytime now I power it up, all I see on monitors is a message in blue in the centre of the screen saying" No signal". Well this is really what my customer has reported to me and I am going to look at the problem tomorrow. Customer knows basics about computers and I believe there could be something more technical for this behaviour and I want to list all issues which could cause this problem before I get there.

May 20, 2012Am planning a new build and the Asus P8Z77-V board is cheaper by $40 than the Asus P8Z77-V Pro but has 8 phase power as opposed to the Pro with 12 phase power.Now I have done a quick Google and there are refs to this but could someone put it in plain / basic wording as there are some refs to CPU power supply, vdroop, and other tech stuff that I don't really understand??I intend running an i5 3570K and have try at over clocking - if that has any relevance for what my query is about.

The same monitors hooked up by other means [dvi, vga] do power off just as they should per the power plan settings.

Aug 30, 2012I have an ASUS K50IE laptop that i had for 2 years now. been working fine until 2 days ago.this problem has been bugging me for the last 2 days. here's why.my laptop suddenly didn't detect my battery. thought it was because my battery was dead. I searched the net on things to do before "throwing in the towel" on my battery and today i came across a blog where the instruction was to uninstall the Microsoft ACPI compliant control method battery driver. I did just that and my battery suddenly worked! well sort of. now here's where it gets all weird.every time i open my laptop i do the following:1. plug in AC to laptop.. turn on laptop.3. unplug AC.3. laptop runs on battery.4. log on to windows.5. battery icon shows up as an empty charging icon then shows the "Battery is not detected" icon again.please take note that my laptop is still ON and WORKING. so this means (MAYBE?) that my battery is working.

Jul 8, 2012I have an acer laptop and it has been working great for the past year but now my battery won't charge to 100%. This only happened recently and my laptop is plugged in for awhile but it'll only read to 80%, 2 weeks later; 53% and now its only 28%. The thing is.. my laptop IS charged. when i unplug it, I get my usually lifespan of the battery before i have to plug it in again to recharge and it only charges to x% again. I've tried "draining" my battery and letting it charge again but it won't charge to 100%. Is there anything I can do to make my laptop read my battery correctly again.
*I should add its an Acer Aspire with a 6-cell Li-ion battery and this is the only problem I've had thus far with my laptop
Will Not Sleep On Battery
Apr 7, 2011My husbands laptop has been having this problem now for a few weeks Win 7 32 been working fine for over a year. The red x showed up on the battery a few weeks ago saying replace battery soon. We all know this is NOT a windows 7 problem b/c MS says so I let it charge to a 100% and die on its own a few times and the x went away for a few days. Then it came back and now the computer will not sleep. Power setting on all the laptops are the same and have been the same. Low battery 10% do nothing critical 6% sleep. But when it reaches 6% it acts like it is going to sleep and then it starts again. I checked to see if there is anything new waking it but nothing shows up when I query it in cmd Also when I press the pwr button which is supposed to make it sleep nothing happens when on battery but when plugged in it sleeps.

Jul 5, 2011So I just moved to a new school which uses ACER TRAVELMATE 6293 as their laptops. When they first gave it to me they put a brand new battery in it and they gave me the wrong charger, greeeat, but I went back and got the correct one.Now, the laptop DOES charge. When I turn it on, it displays the battery icon with the charging icon over it if that makes sense, however it has a red cross over it and if you hover over that it says "no battery is detected". So you have no idea how long it has left to charge and so on. BUT if you take out the charger, the laptop will not turn on (as if the battery is flat, but surely it cant be because it has charged for 24 hrs.)Usually, I would just go to the IT guys/girls at school but seeing as they keep stuffing up and it is school holidays, I am hoping you kind and smart people have a solution. I have tried to get any dust out of the charger port/hole thing. And have also taken out and re-inserted the battery twice. This is driving me a bit stupid as I have homework to do. So just to make things clear, the laptop works completely find when connected to the charger except for what I said before. Oh and this is happens when I am on either the home or school image. And it runs on windows 7 of course

Mar 11, 2012I'm shopping for a battery backup UPS for my PC. My current pick is an APC BE550G. Unfortunately, I've hit a snag- something about "approximation of a sine wave" and "pure sine wave". In other words, if the UPS switches over on approximation and my PC requires pure, the battery backup won't work and my PC will shut off when it tries to switch from AC power to the battery.The PSU in my computer is a Lite On 300W PS-6301-08A PC is a Gateway DX4822-01 with an Intel 5300 processor. And as it will also have to run off the battery, my monitor is a Gateway HX2000. I have gone through Google searches, and could not turn up solid info. I called APC and they researched it but could not answer definite about the PSU's needs. I can not spend $50 on this UPS if it's not going to work, nor do I care to drive back to the store to return it seeing as it'll cost me about $13 in gas expenses to get to Best Buy, each trip.

Dec 30, 2012Every 10 seconds or so, Windows will think my charger is unplugged. Then, it will proceed to switch back and fourth between plugged in and not, forcing my laptop to switch between power modes. (I'm guessing this is stress on the CPU and I do not want it to have to do that all the time)It's getting annoying having to deal with my laptop getting hot and such because of the switching power modes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedBattery Calculation Error
Apr 11, 2012So, I got this old (2005-ish) laptop that was pretty new, almost unused and put 7 on it. Before I did, however, I did some benchmarking of the battery. ~3 hours to charge it from nothing, and ~40-45 minutes in the bios before it shut down, dead. Decent enough for a 5 year old battery. However, it doesn't work that way in windows. Obviously I would not be expecting a full 45 minutes, as windows uses more power then just sitting in the bios, idle. What would happen is, the LED on the machine shows battery power; steady green at approx 75-100%, and it starts to flash at less then 75, increasing in speed until it dies. In windows, it seems that from 100% to ~75%, the battery LED is green and windows reports that it gets down to around 75% battery left, then it sends itself into hibernation. Upon reboot, the battery LED is blinking like it doesn't have any power left, and windows reports 0% battery remaining.

Dec 15, 2012Have a laptop here (not with 7 though) that I have cleaned up as it has IE6 and XP SP2 only on it and in a terrible state.Now there are three problems the worst by far is that I cannot get the machine to shut down with the battery in - out and it has not problems.Secondly it has a terribly pop up on boot that keeps telling me to install the 2002 Office disk before it can do the updates..Thirdly the machine on idle keeps running the cooling fan up to max and then down again. I have checked with Core Temp and it reads 50C so I don't think it is a heat problem.

Jan 10, 2013I have just purchased a new battery for my Fujitsu Amilo pi 3660 notebook.
I have tried so many times to charge it. I have fuilly discharged it and recharged it. I have installed and reinstalled drivers. No matter what I do, it stops charging at exactly 45%.
I know the battery is sound and the problem is a software issue. Does anyone know how to change this cap on the battery. BTW The new battery has slightly, (very) more capacity. This has not been a problem in other laptops, but this Fujitsu certainly caps the charge at 45%
