HIBERNATE LIGHT RUNS CONTINUOUSLY ON LAPTOP?

Hi,
to all of you.
I have a HP DV6 Core i5 Laptop, some days ago, its heatsink has gone bad, its in the care pack, so the service center engineer came and replaced the heatsink, after that it has affected with some overheating issues as well as it hdd activity light is not running and its hibernate light running continuously, what could be the problem? Is it with the motherboard? Please reply.
Thank You.
LAPTOPGEEK

Hi LAPTOPGEEK,
I am sorry for the misunderstanding. So, you are having a problem with the notebook overheating and then shutting down and you are concerned that it is the Motherboard.
Here is a document for Troubleshooting an Overheating and Auto Shutdown Issue which should help with the overheating issue.
For the Motherboard, I suggest Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 8) to see if anything shows up as damaged or corrupted.
I hope this helps, please let me know how it goes.
Thank you and have a good day!
I worked on behalf of HP.

How can I stop the fan from running continuously on my iMac? I have tried resetting the SMC and this did not work.

I have a 27 in. iMac OS X, Version 10.7.5, Intel Core i5 and have a problem with the very loud and annoying fan running continuously. The fan starts up immediately upon powering up and stays on all the time. I have researched this on the internet and have tried resetting the SMC unsuccessfully. Should I try fan control software?

To reset the SMC means to reset the power management settings for your Mac. To do this, follow these simple steps.
1) Shutdown your Mac by going to the Apple Logo in the upper left hand corner of the screen and selecting "Shut Down" from the drop down menu.
2) Turn your machine back on while continuing to hold down the power button.
3) After the initial boot chime, your power indicator light should flash three times.
4) Your screen will remain black and you will hear the boot chime again. At this point, you may release the power button and allow your Mac to boot up normally.
All the best with getting your Mac Mini to run smoothly.

Why does my cooling fan seem to run continuously?

Lately, my cooling fan seems to run continuously. Any ideas why and what I can do are appreciated!

Yikes, that is terrible, is it really warm where you are? Any dust clogging vents? Can you raise it a bit off the surface it's on?

Whenever I run Firfox 4.0, my computer fan runs continuously. I have disabled all plug-ins, and I get the same result. This did not happen with Firefox 3.x, and it doesn't happen with IE 8.0. Any ideas?

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

VXI-850pc controller fails boot. Drive not ready, light on continuously.

I have a VXI-850pc slot-0 controller that won't boot properly. Basically, when turned on:
1) the drive light is continuously lit, color - amber.
2) screen displays: Drive not ready, insert BOOT diskette in A:, Press any key when ready
Has the hard drive crashed? Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help!
Jason

Jason,
You deffinantly are having a HDD problem. It has either failed, the boot sector is corrupt. I would recommend using a boot disk to get into windows and run a scan of your HDD to test if it is okay. If the disk has failed, it is fairly striaght forward to replace and I can advise you on that process if you run into any snags.

Latest Leopard upgrade makes fan run continuously

After doing the latest Leopard upgrade, the fan on my G5 now runs continuously. It always would come on for a bit, then stop for a much longer period. Anyone know of a way to stop this, short of reinstalling the old original Leopard, and never again doing upgrades? Thanks for any help

Well, I do recall that activity monitor trick working well for fixing a laptop that ran all the time. It was looking for a printer that wasn't there. But the SMU trick is new for me. I didn't know the exact age, but pull the fan etc out and found the button. Actually the button said PMU (not SMU) reset, and I pressed it and restarted the computer. The fan was off for a while, but then it came back. I may try it again, since it seemed to have some effect.
Thanks for the suggestions

Macbook fan runs continually with Zynga games...

My wife reports that her Macbook fan runs continually when playing Zynga games...internet games in facebook. I watched her, and it's true...if she quits the game the fan stops. Is this a potential problem? Seems that's all she does on that laptop... I suggested she stop playing the games, but that advice will not be heeded:) thx.

Thank YOU for the reply. Wanna nother star? Help me figure this one out:

T410 hangs and disk light on continuously

Hi
My new T410 hangs (on average once or twice a day) and the disk light is continuously lit as if there is a lot of work going on on the disk. Nothing on the screen responds while this is happening. This goes on for a few minutes and then things return to normal.
The disk is 0% fragmented. I am running Windows 7 64-bit and Windows security essentials. I have installed very little on the machine apart from Office.
Thanks
Dave

Greetings to everybody,
I have exactly same situation here, though neither diagnostics nor windows tools report anything out of the ordinary.
PC-Doctor (i.e. Think vantage) stress test finishes with flying colours (all PASS), but often when mere Outlook/Word apps are open, I often experience that letters display themselves a minute later than when I pressed the letter keys. HDD light is constantly ON (CPU/RAM below 50%) while just now I tried to convert avi to mp4 and it just shut down unexpectedly.
Any thoughts? I know I should take it to the shop as it is still under warranty, but it is never a good time or enough time...

Fan runs continuously on my Powerbook G4

I remember buying my Powerbook G4 Titanium back and then reading the review after I already had the computer at home. The review complained that the Powerbook ran hot.
This has been my experience. I can't hold it in my lap without a pillow to buffer the heat and the power button is hot enough to hurt a little if you hold your finger on it.
The real issue now (I can't remember how long this has been a problem, seems like years) is that I can hear the fan run continuously and it makes a loud whistle. It's distracting enough that I can't take my laptop into a library without disturbing everyone else.
Has this been your experience? I know G4 PBs have run hot from the beginning, but am I stuck with this noisy fan? I don't know if a new fan will be any quieter or what to do with this thing. I'd hate to replace the fan (that can't be cheap) and find that I still deal with the same distracting noise.
By the way, the fan runs right from startup, even before the computer has gotten hot.

ps, By the way, I've opened Activity Monitor and there is nothing using up the %cpu. I'm at about 20% of capacity with two or three apps open.

Even if the fan is running continuously, if I get a brand new one installed, I would have a quiet computer again for the year or two that I plan to still own this thing, correct?
Hi John,
No, I suspect that is not correct. The fan is simply a motor. It either runs or it doesn't. If it does, it is functioning properly. If it runs when it is not supposed to, the fan "controller" is not functioning properly. If the fan controller and the fan ARE functioning properly, then the logic board itself is running too hot for some reason, which, in your case, I suspect is the truth.
TiBooks (and some others) have long had heat issues. I have long suspected that it wasn't the actual design, but that some part of the very complicated/integrated physical system had been compromised. In many cases (and possibly yours), I suspect it's a breakdown of either the heat sink itself, or, more likely, the heat paste that "connects" the heat sink to the CPU (and, depending on the laptop, other heat sinks as well); thus, the path which the heat is supposed to take, from CPU (or elsewhere) to the heat sink/and/or fan, is "broken" and the heat cannot dissipate as well as it should. Hence, the fan runs on and on. My .02, fwiw.

My iphone application running continuously in background to access some information by "beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler" then can i submit in appstore .

My iphone application running continuously in background to access some information by "beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler" then can i submit in appstore ?

This is a question that should probably be posed in the Developer forum.

How can I do to acquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI without interruption.

I've attached a VI that I am using to acquire amplitude from Spectrum analyzerse. I tried to connect amplitude ouput to the VI Write Characters To File.vi and Write to Spreadsheet File.vi. Unfortunately when I run continual this VI without interruption, labview ask me many time to enter a new file name to save a new value.
So, How can I do to aquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI for example during 10 min.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Your VI does work perfectly. Unfortunately this not what I want to do. I've made error in my last comment. I am so sorry for this.
So I explain to you again what I want to do exactly. I want to acquire amplitude along road by my vehicle. I want to use wheel signal coming from vehicle to measure distance along road. Then I acquire 1 amplitude each 60 inches from spectrum analyzer.
I acquire from PC parallel port a coded wheel signal coming from vehicle (each period of the signal corresponds to 12 Inches). Figure attached shows the numeric signal coming from vehicle, and the corresponding values “120” and “88” that I can read from In Port vi.
So I want to acquire 1 time amplitude from spectrum analyser each 5
period of the signal that I am acquiring from parallel port.
So fist I have to find how can I count the number of period from reading the values “120” and “88” that I am acquiring from In Port (I don’t know the way to count a number of period from reading values “120” and “88”).
Here is a new algorithm.
1) i=0 (counter: number of period)
2) I read value from In Port
3) If I acquire a period
i= i+1 (another period)
4) If i is multiple of 5 (If I read 5 period)
acquire 1 time amplitude and write to the same
file this amplitude and the corresponding distance
Distance = 12*i). Remember each period of signal
Corresponds to 12 Inches).i has to take these
values: 5,10,15,20,25,35,40,45,50,55,60............
5) Back to 2 if not stop.
Thank you very much for helping me.

Hello dwb,
Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
Thank you again for your advice,
Regard,

USB hard drive used with Time Machine runs continually

I have a USB SATA external hard drive that I am using for my Time Machine backups. The drive is configured to run on USB power. The drive begins running as soon as it is connected to the port, and runs continually, as long as it is connected. I expected the drive to sleep between TM backups, to save the moving parts. Is there any way to keep the drive sleeping until a TM backup is done, and then go back to sleep?

I believe that is up to the drive manufacturer. In the Preferences Energy Saver see if you have checked "put drive to sleep when possible" and see if the external drive sleeps when you put the computer to sleep. If it does not then it's not a "sleeper." Even if it does, it may not have an internal clock or switch to sleep after so many minutes of inactivity.
Can you use the drive with external power? See if that does anything.
My LaCie d2 quadro sleeps between backups. I don't use USB, I use FW800.
