View 0 Replies View RelatedI have my power plan set to Energy Star with display brightness set around 40% when on battery and 100% when plugged in. It seems to get reset periodically to the default which 40% for both battery and plugged in. I haven't been able to reliably reproduce the problem but every few days the plugged in setting gets reset to 40%. Is this a known problem with Windows 7?

View 0 Replies View RelatedI am trying to change power setting but I got a message "Your power plan information isn't available." I will download a game that will take me like 8 hours. I'm about to sleep already and decided to change power setting and sleep option but options are not available. I activated the account administrator and have 2 account administrators. I logged in on the account administrator and got no option. Same as with the other account. What should I do?

View 0 Replies View RelatedAnyways, in laptops (gaming or not), does setting the power plan to High Performance actually improve gaming (frame rates, speed and anything else) in battery mode? I'm using a laptop (not dedicated gaming, but suffices) and my games (the recent ones) slow down whenever I'm in battery mode. A couple of friends told me I should set it High Performance, which I doubted since they don't seem to be the type to change the power plan settings and more so with the advanced plan settings.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use my PC for audio production and I have a few external controller devices that are USB powered, for example a midi keyboard. I recently had to build PC due to a theft....long story short after building the new PC I've noticed that my USB buses have continual power to these external devices after I've powered down the PC. My old windows 7 PC did not do this. Is there a setting I can change to shut off power to the USB buses when I power off the PC? Or is this a hardware issue?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 shuts down my sound system after about 2 minutes. I can see the LED on my A-L speakers turn off. Any sound will wake it back up but if it's only a ping it doesn't wake fast enough for me to hear it. This didn't happen with this same hardware on Win2k (I skipped XP and Vista).I went through the Advanced Power Settings but under Multimedia I don't have an option for sound.I'd rather not disable power saving completely, so I'd like to find a way to prevent the sound system from going to sleep at all.
View 7 Replies View RelatedMy system specs are updated. My power setting quit working a few days ago. No matter were I set sleep mode or power monitor down, it never does. Not sure why? I've performed an sfc/scannow with no errors. Nothing has really changed in my system recently except my vid card driver. I can't say that caused it, but I rolled it back just in case with no change.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell XPS 15 and in Windows 7 Power Management, I am trying to set it to "Do Nothing" when I close the lid. The option is there and I am set to "Do Nothing" but closing the lid shuts off display, network connection, etc. In addition, I would like it to not shut off my network connection when it hibernates as when I log back in after the hibernation, it takes several minutes for the wireless network connectivity to return.

That may be ok as long as I don't lose any work in progress, but I would like to control this or at least understand it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI use Performance mode, and set it to NEVER turn off ANYTHING, including the monitor.I hit apply, etc etc.It will hold this setting for a while, then after a reboot, or turning off at night, it loses this setting, and reverts to turn off monitor after 20 minutes.Why is Windows 7 doing this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running Windows 7 7000 x64 on a quad core intel box. Most things have been working great but I have been having one annoying problem, the screensaver won't start, and neither will the power saving settings (i.e. turning off monitor, computer sleep)
Basically I am wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem and figured out what software or hardware could be causing it or if anyone knows of a tool to check what input is keeping the computer out of the idle state.
My laptop connects to my desktop wirelessly allowing me to watch stuff stored on it and do other things. Recently, I started using the power settings so that after 30 minutes the computer goes into one of the sleep modes at which time access is shut off to the laptop. Is there anyway the laptop can prevent the power settings from taking effect when it is already connected?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Netbook power profile has these battery setting:
Level: Battery action/Plugged In
Critical Level: 5%/5%
Critical action: Hibernate/Hibernate
Low Battery Level: 7%/10%
Low Battery Action: Nothing/Nothing
Reserve Battery Level: 5%/7%
Reserve Battery Action: N/A
If I leave the netbook on battery and go to sleep/go out/whatever, when I come back it will be off. After plugging it in and powering it on. It will say it is resuming windows, and then I get the "windows has recovered from unexpected shutdown" after Windows is started. I'm not having any problems with Windows, but this message is annoying. Theoretically when the battery hits 5% remaining, windows will gracefully hibernate and I can resume it without any problems.
Is there a group policy to lock down the brightness settings that are normally configured into the control panel power options? Or alternatly, can I force these back to particular settings by saving and restoring regsitry keys upon user login?
