View 1 RepliesMy system shuts off automatically sometimes when the power goes with UPS on. UPS is not giving any beeps or warning signs though. At this time UPS seems On though. But my computer shuts off as if I unplugged its power cable. My UPS battery is new and UPS is 6 years old.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have my Windows 8.1 setup so the display turns off in 1 minute.
I have the power options setup so that the power switch shuts the system down.
But it doesn't. If the screen is off and I press the power switch on my PC the screen comes back on. I then need to press the power switch a second time for the computer to power down.
Is there anyway to configure Windows 8.1 so that the power switch does not turn the display back on, but just immediately shuts the system down?
I have tried to record from a website with both Audacity and WavePad, but they can only record via the speakers, and of course this is not what I want - so how can I record directly??

I've already tried a couple of different ways and keep getting the same error message......Win8 can't edit the master boot record, which I believe it can't because it can't find it due to the fact its on a RAID0 volume.
I'm not about to pop the RAID0 volume and have nothing but Win8 when not everything will work with it yet.
I was trying to record a macro in Office 2010 on my machine with Windows 8.1. I had my PERSONAL.XLSB file open at the time. I closed that file and when I when to record the macro to it the file was no longer listed. I tried to create a new file but I got an error message "Can not find the Start folder" and that was that. Where is the heck is the start folder. I believe it does not exist and 8.1 has issues with Office 2010. I had not luck with an An Access, so I though I'd try here.

I am trying to create a system image backup and I keep getting this error message
[COLOR=#FF0000]'Threre is not enough disk space to create the volum shadow copy on storage location. Make sure that for all volume to be backup up, the minimum disk space required for shadow copy creation is available. this applies to both the backup storage destination and volume included in the backup. Minimum requirement for Volumes less than 500 megabytes, the minimum is 50 megabyte of free space. for voulimes more than 500 megabytes, the minimum is 320 megabytes of free space. Recommended at least 1 gigabytes free of disk space on each volumes if volumes size is more than 1 gigabytes (0x80780119)"
I am backing it up to a external HDD with over a tb of free space but I understand its not letting me perform the backup because the hidden 100mb hidden system partition is full...if i create a larger partition how can I copy that system partition to it? if that is possible....
Dumb question - if I panic and have to do a system restore or system reset using the install DVD for Windows 8 what will happen to the Windows 8.1 version I just downloaded and installed?

I only recently installed a windows 7 64 bit on a ssd but after doing so, I had to do a system image recovery to my windows 8 installation from a date prior to the new windows 7 install. This Windows 7 is not on the list of operating system options in system startup so how do I add it?

Furthermore creating a custom also fails
What setting my computer as a result is using. I also blue screen when my lid of my laptop shuts, im going to guess because of the lack of a profile to tell it what to do. I believe it was exception not handled monitior.sys (but im not sure)
I just noticed that when I go to the Power Options that the options are missing. It says the Power Plan is missing or unavailable or something such. One answer said to do a refresh or reset of Windows 8. Isn't that a bit drastic? Is there no way to do it by tweaks. I did that refresh once and lost more than I thought I was supposed to.

How I get Hibernate on the power menu?
One day I go to shutdown/hibernate/sleep button and a pop up says "no power options available". I can still preform these options but I have to go through signing out first then picking. How do I change this? Oh, and no, I didn't add or upgrade, etc. anything lately.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI realized something interesting what happen using Windows 8 and 8.1, compare to Windows 7: a quite huge difference in power consumption!
For some special reason I was need ti install Windows 7 on my computer at home. I done that on an new HDD with 320GB, running solo for the installation by removing the power cables form the other HDD's, a total of 8 SATA3 HDD's. That was done 2 days ago and I firstly I installed only those Apps I need to use on Windows 7, no any gimmiks, whistles or bells! On Windows 8 I use Gadgets and the CPU Gadget show at middle 20%-25% while doing normal work.
I also have 3 different power circuit's at my home office, to each an Ampere Meter connected. On the circuit with my computer, which is connected to an 1.2KW UPS is also the Modem/Router 4 Port, LAN Switch 8 Port and and Debian Linux Server running. 2. Power Circuit has an Survailance Server and an Mail Server running and 3. circuit is for the normal other electric use like lights, power plugs etc.
Now on my computer's circuit the Amp Meter is 0-10A and with Windows 8 and 8.1 and the other devices, as pointed above, the consumption is about 2.6A-2.7A, depend on the work done on the computer. There is only 1 printer connected via the same power circuit, an Brother QL570 Thermal Label printer which is 99.8% of the time off line!
Now the interesting: running Windows 7 on the exact same computer with all HDD's running, as Windows 8, the power consumption is between 2.2A and max 2.4A! So, I installed more apps, mainly now the same a s running in 8/8.1 and also the gadgets. The CPU usage is mainly between 2-6% and may goes up to 15% by heavier work but reach 20%!
Both, the CPU usage and the power consumption is a quite huge difference using the exact same hardware, only difference is the OS Windows 8/8.1 vs Windows 7! In this, Windows 7 wins clearly!
I have a Toshiba lap top that operates with Windows 8. When I powered up yesterday, the computer turned on, the Toshiba logo displayed briefly as it always does, and the cursor was visible on the screen. But other than that nothing appears on the screen. I've tried powering off then back on a few times, as well as cont/alt/delete, and neither has worked.

And the same situation is when i removed the charger. But this is not happened when i was using windows 7. Is this a problem or a feature of windows 8.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've had Windows 8 sitting around since February, and got around to installing it yesterday. So far all is well, except for when I shut my computer off the power LED will keep flashing. At first I thought my computer was just in sleep mode, but after hitting a couple keys that was not the case. Is there a setting some where that would cause this. I know it's a minor issue but damn that LED is bright.
My systems specs
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300

CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
Yeah this machine is over five years old, working on getting a new one together soon.
My computer won't power off completely, SOMETIMES, i'm going nuts here.
Here are my system specs:
ASUS Forumla IV latest BIOS
ASUS GTX 690
2x4 2333 GB RAM
ANTEC 1200W PSU
1 SSD & 4 HDD
Creative ZXR SB
using latest drivers for all the above
sometimes the PC power off completely when i shutdown, sometimes not, the screen would go black but the power won't get turned off, the fans are still spinning and no BSOD...I have to either hard reset or hold the power button to turn it off.
I tried resetting CMOS, turning on and off the Fast boot feature in power options
With or without overclocking
Is there anyway to diagnose or investigate what is causing the PC not to power off completely?
Is it possible to set the netbook (Windows 8 64 bit) to go to sleep sometime after AC power is disconnected and to wake up immediately once the AC power is re-connected?
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy screensaver and power setting to turn off the display has stopped working, and these were working the other day. The only thing I have changed is I updated iTunes. I have tried a system restore to before this and this did not fix this.
Among other things I have tried a clean boot, sfc, and checking the energy report. Clean boot did nothing and sfc gave no errors. I uploaded my energy report if any one thinks it could be useful.
I also tried to put the PC into sleep, which I don't normally do and it woke up a little while later. That gave me the following error in event viewer:
The system firmware has changed the processor's memory type range registers (MTRRs) across a sleep state transition (S4). This can result in reduced resume performance.
The icons on the start menu and login screen are missing. how do i solve this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded to Windows 8 (64-bit) and noticed I don't have power options available. I own an HP Pavilion DV7, usually when I leave the laptop to do something over night, I go into "Choose what closing the lid does" and I get the error saying my power plan info is not available. Whenever I try to create a powerplan it tells me the same thing, but when I hit next, it tells me it can't find the file specified. I have no power options at the moment. I tried resetting to defaults using cmd, rebooted, and the only power option I had (Razer Gamebooster) was gone, and had nothing after.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI installed clean Windows 8. I checked the event viewer to see if everything is OK. But it has 4 critical error and they were all Kernel Power Error. I noticed these Kernel Power Errors are caused by when I restart my PC. Example is when I installed Photoshop, I restarted and I checked the Event Viewer Log. There was an event Kernel error created.
but here is where it gets complicated. When I boot to desktop after restarting my PC, it doesn't say my computer suffered from a serious error. I have to check it manually by going to the Event Viewer Logs. If I don't check the Event Viewer Log, I won't know.
There has also been times where my PC won't boot to Windows 8. I goes past BIOS and Windows boot screen, but it hangs there. It simply crashes.
I don't overclock my PC. My PC temps are always low old IDLE and always within the max temp under full load.I have installed and updated ALL drivers and BIOS. I thought this might be driver issue but I realized this happened when I installed it clean and booted up for the first time.
This does not happen in Windows 7. Only in Windows 8.
I ran Prime95 for 12 hours -- no error
I ran Intel Burn Test for 9 hours -- no error
I ran Memtest for 12 hours -- no error

today i came home to my alienware x51 in some dell system recovery screen, i asked my kid what happened today she said the lights flickered several times, during a freak storm, So my pc must have tried to auto start several times, this is not good at all, i'm so lucky no damage was done at least so far. But how do i stop this behavior from happening again is there a setting i can turn off, so if we have another light flicker or loss of power that it never does it again. I just hope in the long run that my computer is not damaged who knows how many times it tried to reboot.

I'm comfortable with computers but am not an IT person so I'm not comfortable performing tasks within my system unless I know what the heck I'm doing or why.
W7 forum said overclocking (it's not), heat (this last time it had been in sleep mode while I was out and within moments of waking it up it crashed), sudden loss of power (it's plugged in AND has 100% battery left) and so on. In other words, it doesn't appear to be related to any of those things. It just randomly happens.
1) why this keeps happening and
2) how to fix it?
I've been very disappointed in my new laptop since getting it; I've NEVER had such issues with a new computer before..and I thoroughly dislike Windows 8 and I doubt I'm alone in that view.
