Exiting from standby issue

When one of my T61 returns from standby it immediately re-enters standby. I can then press the power button or open the lid to have it return from standby again.
Does anyone have a solution to this? I have updated the BIOS and the power management drivers with no effect.

You may have a hardware malfunction. Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents as follows. If the problem persists prior to installing updates, software, or hardware, get a replacement or warranty repair.

  • X301 and Wake from Standby Issues

    I received my X301 on last Thursday, and really like this computer. Over the weekend, however, I noticed a recurring problem.
    It seems to be unable to wake from standby when connected directly (not using the port replicator) to an external monitor. I tried different combinations of entering standby:
    1. Shut off external monitor, then go to standby;
    2. Leave monitor on, then go to standby;
    I am using extended desktop for the display properties.
    When not connected to a monitor, it seems to be OK. I had selected the option to do nothing when closing the lid on the laptop, but changed that when I noticed this issue. It did not seem to make a difference. I have to hold the power button down and shut off the computer to re-boot.
    When I open the lid, the message on the screen is something like going into standby, but it should say, coming out of standby. Regardless, nothing happens. I do not think I have password protected the machine. I may have, but also think I deleted this because I thought that could have been causing the problem. At start up, I do not have to swipe my finger, nor enter a password.
    My OS is XP.
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

    I have the same issue.  x301.  Win7 64bit.  I called tech sup.  They want me to back up everything and go back to factory defaults.  This never worked.  It was a problem out of the box so I am reluctant.  I uninstalled the access program that shows wireless options and network connectivity.  Now I can wake, but when I do I have no network connectivity.  I have to reboot to get wireless or wired connectivity.  I'm still looking for a cure.

  • When waking up from standby, monitors power up but no picture is displayed. HP ENVY Phoenix h9

    Product: HP ENVY Phoenix h9 PC Series
    Product #: H3Y51AA#BL
    Model: h9-1387
    OS: Windows 8 64-bit
    Monitors: DELL 2407WFPHC x 2
    Updated graphics drivers to latest non-beta version.
    Hello,
    Since purchasing my PC a few months ago, there has been one "display" problem after another. This is the current problem:
    When stepping away from my computer, I lock it via Win+L and shortly after my monitors turn off. When returning a short time later, I attempt to wake up (But not really "wake up"... To try and fix previous display problems, I've already disabled hibernation and sleep options) my computer by moving my mouse. This causes the monitors to exit standby and power up, but all that is dispalyed is black screens when I should have been presented with the login screen.
    Mouse and keyboard clicks do nothing and I'm stuck at black screens. To continue, I press my PC's power button which causes the hard drives to spin-up and shortly after the computer turns off. I press the power button again and the computer boots to the login screen where once I enter my password, Windows loads and all my programs etc are displayed as they were before I locked my PC.
    You can see previous problems I've had listed below, hopefully they will also help you detect the cause of the current problem.
    Please help.
    Thanks!
    Peter
    Previous problems that I've had:
    1) When waking from hibernation, the computer would not wake monitors from standby leaving no way to login and save work. Hard reboot required. Solution: Disable Windows hibernation features.
    2) Error along the lines of "Display driver failed and have recovered". Possible solution: Disabled hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    3) When waking from standby, I find my 2 monitors have merged into one, and at a different resolution than normal. Once entering password to login, programs that were on seperate monitors are now on the same monitor. Right-clicking the desktop and selecting "Screen Resolution" -> "Detect" would set the monitors back to normal until the problem occurs again. Possible solution: Updated graphics card driver. Not sure if this problem has been fixed, it may have just been covered up by the new problem mentioned above.
    This question was solved.

    Hey peterallcdn, 
    I'm sorry you're running into this resuming from sleep issue. Sometimes services that are trying to resume can cause issues like this. I would suggest trying a clean boot (booting with only essential system services running) and then seeing if it resumes from sleep properly.
    Here are the steps to disable non-critical services:
    1. Windows + Q to bring up Search
    2. Type 'msconfig' and press Enter
    3. Click the Services Tab
    4. Check the Hide All Microsoft Services box 
    5. Click the Disable All button 
    6. Click Apply and Restart
    When you restart Windows should only load essential system services, no 3rd party software. Lock the computer and let it go into sleep mode as you usually do and then try to resume from sleep. Let  me know what the result of that is.
    I have seen other cases where Google Talk or antivirus programs will prevent the computer from resuming properly.

  • Satellite M70-394: WLan does not work after wake up from standby

    Hi all....
    I have a problem with my WLan connection and hope one of you may be able to help. Starting my computer from off there isn't a problem with the WIFI connection but if I put the computer into standby by closing the lid and then restarting it from there the light comes on briefly for wi fi but then goes off and the only way I can connect is through a cable.
    Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.

    Hi
    I have read in the forum that some similar "Wlan standby" issues were fixed by BIOS update.
    I think you should compare the BIOS version on the notebook with the BIOS which is available on the website. If there is a new update try to upgrade it
    Be sure that you have chosen the right BIOS.

  • USB ports don't work after resuming from standby with Windows 8 on X230 tablet

    I have just done a clean install of Windows 8 on my X230 tablet.  Before installing Windows 8 I installed the most recent BIOS for this machine (version 2.50).  After installing Windows 8 I installed System Update from the Lenovo Website and downloaded all the recommended drivers and other files.  I've also installed all the latest Windows 8 updates.
    Here are the symptoms of my problem: After resuming from standby/sleep mode, my USB ports do not work.  My computer has two USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 ports.  All exhibit the same behavior.  After resuming from standby mode I have tried inserting both my mouse and a USB thumbdrive, but neither are recognized.  After restarting Windows, the USB ports work again... until I resume from standby mode again.
    I hope there is a solution to this issue.  It is very frustrating.

    Thanks for the suggestion about tweaking the "Allow this computer to turn off this device" feature.  I un-checked that box for every entry I could find under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" in the Devide Manager.  Unfortunately, the same symptoms of my problem persisted.
    I went back and looked at the README file associated with the BIOS 2.50 download on Lenvo's support site.  At the bottom of the file it gives a "Summary of Changes".  Under version 2.03 of the BIOS (the version just before version 2.50), it says:
    - (Fix) Fixed an issue where USB device might not detected when system resume from sleep mode.
    This indicates that Lenovo support was already aware of such issues.  The problem was intended to be fixed in version 2.03 of the BIOS.  However, the issue persists on my machine, even with the latest BIOS.
    Hopefully someone from Lenovo can comment here.

  • How to exit from SQL PlUS

    Hello,
    HI,I came to know that direct exit from SQL Plus without Oracle shutdown causes future issues of ORA-0600 kind of errors. Is it true?The ORA-00600 is an internal error it can be caused for instance by a Bug, a corruption, ... , and if someday you experience this kind of error, you should open a Service Request to My Oracle Support.
    However, I've never heard that exiting sqlplus could cause this kind of error. Where did you get such information ?
    how to shutdown from user "SYSTEM/manager". To shutdown the database you should be connected with the User SYS (as SYSDBA). You may use the following statement:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    shutdown immediate;
    exitHope this help.

  • White screen when resuming from standby

    Hey,
    For about a week when I resume from standby by opening the lid I get a white screen.
    I'm using a MacBook Pro 2,7 GHz, Intel Core i7 with 4 GB ram bought in September this year (2011). Fully updated as of today.
    Basically, I close the lid of the laptop before I go to sleep and when I open it the next day the screen goes white. So far I have remedied this by pushing the power button which forces the Shut Off options to appear and the white screen is gone.
    Is this something I should be concerned about? I've read about the "White Screen of Death."
    Anyone else have this issue?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
    Test. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

  • Backlight hotkeys dead following resume from standby

    this is a strange problem...
    sometimes (but not every time) when i resume from standby or hibernate, my backlight hot keys (Fn + Home/End) are dead and i am stuck at the backlight level that the computer was at when it went down. only way to fix it is to reboot.
    help!

    I have the same issue. The screen brightness at times just gets stuck. No way to get the hotkeys to work (unless I reboot) . I can't change the brightness via the control panel either. 
    Any ideas about how to fix this would be much appreciated. 

  • SoundMax audio driver did not load after returning from StandBy.

    After my computer returns from StandBy, it shows me this message. "The SoundMax audio driver did not load. You may need to reinstall SoundMAX". I have downloaded and installed the latest driver that was supposed to fix this issue on Windows XP T61. Is there another solution?

    Hi,
    I wanted to confirm, that this issue occurs also to me, and started happening recently. Also the driver sometimes does not start when simply booting clean (not returning from StandBy). I'm not sure,  but I think this started happening after some driver update (I do upgrade my drivers when lenovo updates them hoping they'll fix some of the annoying glitches, but this is what I usually get...).
    My machine is: lenovo t61 7664-19G
    And I also have: windows XP
    If someone more tech-able would like to investigate this, I would be happy to supply all the details.

  • T400 screen brightness standby issue

    When my T400 comes out of standby the screen brightness goes to 100% even though the Power Scheme prior to standby was lower than 100%.  This causes me to have to manually adjust the screen brightness.  Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening? I have the ATI video adapter and I am making power setting changes via the Power Manager.

    Is everyone running XP with this issue?  I had the same problem when I got my brand new T400 and after 5 calls to tech support for this and quite a few other nuisance problems they gave me an RMA to send the thing back after I reloaded with an XP set they had sent me thinking I had received a bad copy of XP.  Day before I was going to send it back I went to reload it again to get my info I had loaded off.  Well for whatever reason I chose to load it with the Vista recovery discs instead and it took care of all of the nuisance problems!!  I have no idea why but its not an issue now, all I can figure is whatever software is not checking the brightness when it comes back from standby doesn't properly run with XP as with my few other nuisance issues.  I'm loading 7 this weekend, will update to let everyone know how it works.
    (Other issues included the LAN/Bluetooh icons in the task bar next to the clock-even after telling them to "go away" in the properties they failed to do so.  Sometimes the screen wouldn't even come back on after coming out of standby so I'd have to blindly shut it down and reboot.  Wireless connection was sporatic and fingerprint softwarewas finicky in not letting me load fingerprints(that one was a driver update issue though)-Like I said, Vista took care of all of it, not that I'm endorsing Vista because I do bellieve Vista was a total failed attempt at an OS by Microsoft and was released WELL before it was ready and properly tested.  My guess is the software/drivers for all the hardware with issues were developed under vista so it'll work with XP but doesn't like to and will be finicky....)

  • Deleting applied archives from standby

    Hello Guys,
    We have oracle 10g rel 2 on hp-ux
    I feel this common question for dataguard implementation
    Just want to check best way of deleting archives automatically from standby database,i have 2 methods in mind
    as below
    1)At os level shell script-finding last seqno from alert log at standby/or query v$views(select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log) ,passing it to script
    using rman as :*delete archivelog until sequence seqno;*
    or deleting at os level upto this seqno
    (Making script is not issue with this functionality and scheduling it in cron)
    2)by RMAN at standby
    set alter system set "_log_deletion_policy"='ALL' scope=spfile;
    set CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY;
    however i have no plans to take backup at standby,still can i use above command
    is it reliable i faced some issues in past inspite of this configurations archives were not deleted at standby
    Please give your views is there any other method to delete archives automatically ,and which one is more preferred
    and reliable method/best method
    Thanks

    logdeletion_policy parameter is static, so which you cant change dynamically, PRimary should bounce, If it is fine then you can go ahead.
    If you do not have time, then prepare an RMAN script to delete the archives.

  • T400 - frozen mouse and keyboard after waking from standby

    I'm experiencing a very annoying problem on my T400 with Win XP Professional SP3:  around 75% of the time, when I wake up my T400 from standby mode, the mouse and keyboard don't work.  Actually what happens is one of these situations:
    1) Neither keyboard nor mouse (stick and pad) respond - Ctrl-Alt-Del to enter username/password is not registered, I can't log into Windows
    2) Keyboard works (I can log into windows) but mouse doesn't respond
    I have to close the laptop to standby and re-open, repeatedly, until it finally works.  Though one interesting aspect is that if I have external USB keyboard and mouse plugged in, they always work.
    Anyone have any ideas?  Thank you in advance!

  • Shrink Log file in log shipping and change the database state from Standby to No recovery mode

    Hello all,
    I have configured sql server 2008 R2 log shipping for some databases and I have two issues:
    can I shrink the log file for these databases: If I change the primary database from full to simple and shrink the log file then change it back to full recovery mode the log shipping will fail, I've seen some answers talked about using "No
    Truncate" option, but as I know this option will not affect the log file and it will shrink the data file only.
          I also can't create maintenance to reconfigure the log shipping every time I want to shrink the log file because the database size is huge and it will take time to restore in the DR site, so the reconfiguration
    is not an option :( 
    how can I change the secondary database state from Standby to No recovery mode? I tried to change it from the wizard and wait until the next restore for the transaction log backup, but the job failed and the error was: "the step failed". I need
    to do this to change the mdf and ldf file location for the secondary databases.
    can any one help?

    1. If you change recovery model of database in logshipping to simple and back to full Logshipping will break and logs wont be resored on Secondary server as log chain will be broken.You can shrink log file of primary database but why would you need that
    what is schedule of log backup. Frequent log backup is already taking care of log files why to shrink it and create performance load on system when log file will ultimately grow and since because instant file initilaization is not for Log files it takes time
    to grow and thus slows performace.
    You said you want to shrink as Database size is huge is it huge or does it have lots of free space. dont worry about data file free space it will eventually be utilized by SQL server when more data comes
    2. You are following wrong method changing state to no recovery would not even allow you to run select queries which you can run in Standby mode. Please refer below link to move Secondary data and log files
