4030cdt - battery charged but won't run on battery

Hi i have upgraded my laptop to 190mb ram,and latest bios, installed a 20gb disk and am now running windows xp.
Since putting xp on i lost the battery monitor utility.
I mostly use the laptop from the mains supply.
Now it wont run on the battery at all, i get about 40 seconds then windows shuts down.
I have measured 12volts directly from the battery and tested a small buzzer from it.
Anyone got any ideas.Has the battery developed this memory thing where it requires a full discharge?
or
would it be the power utility on the laptop causing the problem ?

Hi
How old is your battery?
Usually every notebook died after about 500 charge procedures.
On my old notebook the battery has died after 2 years. At the end the battery works only 1 min.
In my opinion you should check if the battery is ok or has a malfunction

    The battery's probably drained and the power brick on the fritz. Unfortunately, if she won't start there's little we can do for software-based diagnosis. You'll have to take it in to a Store or Service Provider for assessment.

  • IPod battery charged but won't play

    Has anyone experienced this problem? My iPod shows as charged but as soon as it is placed in use, the battery seems to lose its charge immediately. If I place it on the charger, within seconds it shows the battery as charged again. Would this just be a bad battery or something else? Thanks.

    At first glance, that appears to be a symptom of a bad battery.

  • CS3 installs but won't run

    Ok - not sure if this goes in this section or not.. but it's a technical question.
    My b/f bought me a Dell Laptop last week. It has the recommended minimum of everything adobe says it needs for photoshop CS3 (see below for 1721 specs)
    When I installed it on the laptop - it was slow, but said it installed. But when I go to open up Photoshop, it opens the screen - and then just hangs. After about 5 minutes it says not responding and I close it. Any of the other programs that came with won't even get that far. I click on them and it gives the little "thinking" circle (as I call it.. lol) and then nothing.
    I have read that CS3 has issues with Vista - but their site says the home premium should work. I've also read about 64 bit issues.. but the OS is 32 bit - so it's capable of running 32bit systems... I guess.
    I called adobe yesterday after installing and reinstalling CS3 15+ times... with the same issue. I was on the phone for about 2 hours with them. Basically - they have NO CLUE what it would be since it installs fine and opens with no error messages. I checked the log files and there is nothing in there I see that says any kind of error.
    I have disable windows defender, uninstalled McAfee and google desktop (all are known to cause issues with CS3), I have ALL non MS startup services turned off.. I have turned off the MS users control.. all suggested by the adobe tech.
    I have installed using the run as administrator. Nothing. Created a new admin account and installed on that user and opened on reg admin account. Nothing. (again typical things that correct cs3 install issues)
    The last thing the guy said was that it might be a video issue. I checked and there aren't any issues mentioned and no driver updates listed.
    We tryed installing this on my b/f's laptop. He bought the exact one I have (except his is red.. mine blue.. lol) and it does the EXACT same thing...
    So today we called dell. they say it's a software issue and won't answer any questions for free. Apparently only hardware support is free... But they won't accept this is a hardware conflict with the software..
    errrrr
    Anybody have any clues on this?

    Rob - thanks for taking a stab at this.
    I have tried installing from the DVD and also from the zip file. the zip file was extracted to the hard drive brfore I ran it - and I ran it as administrator.
    And when it stalls - it gives the (NOT RESPONDING) tag on the window - which usually means that even if I leave it (and I have for up to 20 minutes) - still nothing.
    Here's the update from my dealings with DEll today...
    Dell tech support guy told me that it was a know issue that CS3 WON'T run on Vista and that Adobe is working the issue
    Told them that I knew others that were running it on Vista and it worked fine. They had no answer.
    Then I waited for the Technical support manger to call. This is after expressing my displeasure to the technical supervisor about them trying to pawn this issue off on anyone else but themselves. Why can't they go grab a 1721 off the shelf and replicate the issue and try to figure it out from there?!?!?!
    I used to work on a network helpdesk.. if I tried to pull that crap answer without trying to replicate the issue and AT LEAST try to find an answer.. I wouldn't have lasted very long at all!!!!
    The Tech manager told me to call customer support and ask for an OS swap (from vista to XP) because they don't know what the problem is and so it muct be a Vista compatibility issue
    I call customer support. They say that they no longer will give out XP since it is a step backwards. And to install XP on the machine ourselves (even a liscensed copy) would void the warranty. They suggest I talk to sales about swapping the laptop out with a "more compatible" one. Which isn't a totally bad idea since I really do think it is an AMD/ATI conflict.
    They transfer me to Sales.. ohh - you used the Employee Purchase program.. you need to talk to them.. and they transfer me.
    The EPP people tell me.. ohhhh you didn't actually go through us since you bought it off the Dell Outlet store. So they transfer me.
    The dell outlet store says they will be more than happy to swap me out to an Intel based machine.
    Only catch is the Intels are more expensive. They don't have any for the price we paid for the amd's. Fot about $40 more I can get one with a slower processer, a gig less ram, no dvd writer, but with a 160gb hd. To get compatible to mine - would be about $150 more.
    And they only have silver in the low end, and black or brown in the higher. Not that I really give a s@!t what the color is.. but it brings up the main reason I am sooo pissed abput all of this....
    Why should I have to pay more money, settle on doing without option/features want/need.. just because THEY don't want to take the time to figure out what the real issue is?!?!?! Why isn't it them doing these calls and doing all this troubleshooting.. Why am I being peanilzed for THEM not wanting to do their jobs....
    Told the B/F that I am done with Dell. That I don't want the laptop anymore and I don't want any other one from them. He says he'll pay the extra and get me the other one.. but that isn't the point....
    Not sure what my next move is.

  • My ipod touch says it is connected to wifi, but won't run anything that uses it like safari or itunes, and I don't know how to fix it

    Can anyone help me? my  ipod touch says it is connected to wifi, but it won't run anything that uses wifi like safari or itunes, and I don't know how to fix it

    You didn't indicate if it ever worked.  If it NEVER did, the problem could be caused by a firewall in the router.  For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
    You will need administrative access to the router.  If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again.  If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again.  Repeat as required.

  • ITunes 7 is installed but won't run

    I recently installed iTunes onto my computer and it opened, but I wasn't able to connect to the music store. A friend suggested uninstalling, performing a system restore to an earlier date and try again. Well now iTunes installs, but it won't run. HELP!

    Hi Everyone.
    This is a real disapointment from apple to us!
    At this moment all we know that this is a BIGGER BUG ISSUE on the V7 upgrade.
    I can't figure out how the apple guys give us an update that ***** in the main pourpouse of it ...LISTEN MUSIC!!!
    I recommend that you uninstall the itunes as the quicktime, then reinstall to the V6.5 version and I hope that you have an iTunes Library.itl file backup because as a very GOOD ENDING the V7 give a new structure to this important file and will not be read again for previous itunes versions.
    You can find the iTunes Library.itl at \My Documents\My Music\iTunes if you have a previous version to replace it.
    By now, I hope that apple give us another new V.7 version fixing this bug among others and the testers can do their job as they receive their checks.
    This is a very "punchself" for Jobs and Apple team then their last days announcements.
    Good luck to all!!

  • Flashplayer installed and active but won't run

    Hi. I seem to be having the same problem as several others on here: I've got the latest version of Flash  installed and active on my Win8.1 system, and it shows as an active add-on in the latest version of Firefox, but it stalls on loading and won't run. This started immediately after the latest Flash update was released: I've tried uninstalling and re-installing.
    Thanks.

    You're more than welcome to file performance bugs at http://bugbase.adobe.com/.  I noticed that the page on adobe.com took a really long time to load for me as well on Chrome, but Adobe.com is super complex, and I think that has something to do with a poorly performing back-end service.  Since you're seeing the slow script dialog not loading on the watch page, it's pretty clear that Flash Player is installed and playing content under normal circumstances.  The interesting part is that one of those dialogs is talking about JavaScript running on the page, and the other is talking about Flash.  It's unclear without debugging the issue whether it's the browser or the plugin; however, as you've noticed, both work fine in Internet Explorer.
    It's important to point out that both Adobe and Microsoft made a tremendous effort in tuning the  Internet Explorer experience for Windows 8 and higher.  The latest versions of IE offer a fast, modern plug-in architecture that efficiently offers defense-in-depth protection against the modern generation of security threats (as opposed to the sandboxing approach that we retrofit to Firefox).  Similarly, Google Chrome provides a modern, secure plug-in architecture and invests heavily in making the Flash experience in the browser great.  I'm a Firefox fan as well, but the reality is that you might be more satisfied with your experience when using a different browser.
    For the crash, I'd be happy to take a look at the crash analysis to see if I can find anything useful.
    In Firefox, if you type about:crashes in the address bar, you should get a list of recent crashes.
    Click each link to submit it to the Mozilla crash reporting system.

  • ITunes won't recognize iPod, iPod charges but won't play

    When I connect my nano, it goes to the Do Not Disconnect screen, but my iTunes does not recognize the nano, so I can't update songs/playlists. It charges, but when I try to play - after I select a song - it goes to that song, but doesn't play and then skips to the next song and the next and the next and nothing plays. I reset the nano and reinstalled iTunes but problem still exists. Any thoughts? Thanks!

  • My non intel Mac runs OS10.5.6 but won't run Firefox 4.0, will I be able to run it at a later date or is my G5 ready for the graveyard?

    Latest update says it won't run on my Mac (see question above) and current latest compatible version (3.6.17) will have full tech support for only a limited time now. Is there anything I can do to bring my Mac up to spec. Is it really a dinosaur already? Will I be able to run FF4.0 (or later) at a later dater date?
    Any answers appreciated, thanks... B

    Ah you have PPC version. Either you can keep using Firefox 3.6.* are try a third party version of Firefox 4.0.* at http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    The Firefox 4.0 and newer downloads contains the 32-bit and 64-bit version for Intel at moment.

  • IPod cord charges, but won't show in iTunes.

    I'm having a really weird problem with my iPod. I'm not sure if the cord is broken or the data terminal on the iPod is. When I plug my iPod into my computer it doesn't charge or show up in iTunes, but if I push at the cord upwards it'll charge, but never show in iTunes. If I push at it and hold it up it'll show in iTunes and charge as well. This happened suddenly. I never dropped the iPod nor had the cord bent at a strange angle before this. Tell me what I should do?
