Hp pavilion dv6 disables all usb ports when put to sleep mode. hibernate will enable them again.

Im using an HP pavilion dv6 - 6b56el with Windows 7 Home Premium.
First install on 15-DEC-2011
When I put the PC to sleep it will disable all USB ports.
When I restart the box or put it to hibernate (and wake it again) the USB ports wil work again.
This happens when running on battery or connected to a power supply.
As far as I can see I checked all power settings that could possibly disable the USB ports.
I think the latest changes to the system made before this happens were automatic windows updates on 18-DEC-2011 and 19-DEC-2011.

Hi,
There are some computers on the market which have special USB port(s) stay awake during the computer in sleep mode. In your case, you can change this using Device Manager under power management  tab (un-tick "Allow the Computer to turn off this device to save power").
Regards.

  • Shuts down when put into sleep mode

    Any idea why this is happening?
    When my ipod touch locks itself or if I put it into sleep mode, it will not wake itself up with the press of a button - instead, it restarts (black screen with apple logo in centre).
    It is only 12 hours old and was perfectly fine when running on the factory 1.xx software, it has only started happening since the 2.1 software was installed.
    Since, I have Restored it through iTunes which performs another clean install of 2.1 and it is the same still
    Weirdly, while it is connected to my PC through the USB cable, it behaves perfectly (waking up from sleep instantly with the press of the home button), but as soon as I disconnect it from the PC, it starts playing up again.
    If I set the settings to never lock, it performs brilliantly which is annoying as I now have a taste of what this device can do, but I just cant put it into sleep mode.
    Any ideas on what I need to do? Or is it a case of returning it to Apple?
    Thanks for any response

    Is the battery FULLY charged? If not, charge it and then see how it reacts...make sure Wi-Fi is off while you do this--I've noticed weird things when it's docked and plugged into my TV (with the new dock) and wi-fi is on--I get battery messages randomly and it eventually shuts down (even though it's plugged into a dock with power, that came from Apple and is the "latest and greatest"...)

  • Pavilion dv6 2190us esata/usb port and Dual HDD Dock

    When I connect  a dual HDD dock (BlacX Duet) to the esata/usb port only one drive is recognized.  Can this esata/usb port support dual sata drives?  How do I make it work?
    Windows 7  64-bit
    Core i7 Q 720 1.6Ghz

    I have the exact same question with my DV6T I bought Nov 2009.  Did you ever get an answer?  I want to buy a dock that supports 2 sata drives and connects via 1 eSata cable to the laptop.  But before investing need to know if the eSata port is multi port aware as the docks require the laptop chipset be able to support. I emailed HP help desk without success so far.  Any info is appreciated...thanks.

  • Does the USB port provide power in sleep mode?

    Subject pretty much says it all... curious as to if the USB port will continue to provide power to a connected device even in sleep mode?
    I can find some info on the G5 iMacs that say they did not, but can't find anything on the Intel iMacs.
    Specifically, thinking of buying an iPod Nano and wondering if it will charge it while sleeping.

    Regarding Apple's document, it is interesting to note:
    Your computer goes to sleep
    Your computer can only charge iPod when it's turned on and not asleep. Make sure your computer on and is not set to go to sleep when you want to charge iPod.
    Tip: Some Macintosh computers can charge iPod even though they're asleep. If your sleeping computer doesn't charge iPod, don't worry, just wake it and let iPod charge.
    Apple doesn't specifiy which computers are capable of this however so I wouldn't bet on it.
    Of note, the USB port must provide a very small amount of power not only, I would think, to allow the keyboard/mouse to wake the Mac but also to light the LEDs of my bus powered (not AC powered) Macally hub which remain constant as long the Mac is on (sleeping or not). That also applies to the USB charger that came with my Kensington Wireless keyboard (although I have not tried charging while in sleep mode). That being said, the power - no doubt - is minimal.

  • IMac shuts down when put in Sleep mode

    Computer works fine but when I put it in "sleep" mode in shuts down and cannot be restarted without unplugging and starting over. Once started it works fine again until the next "sleep".
    Anything I can try before backing everything up and heading for the Apple store ?

    Disconnect all devices except for the keyboard & mouse if you have not done so.
    Try this:
    Change the energy saving options, to put the display to sleep and the computer to sleep at the same time.
    Enable (check mark) put the hard disk to sleep when possible.
    Lock the padlock.
    Optional: Repair permissions &/or restart.
    ==============
    Check your Energy Saver settings to make sure they are correct.
    If your computer came w/a remote, test the remote sleep option to determine if your issue is repeated.

  • Power Mac g4 freezes up when put in sleep mode

    Hello. So the machine has had a lot of changes but the problem just started a couple days ago, before that I was going into sleep mode just fine with no problems. The problem is when the computer goes to sleep it freezes, the screen goes black but the fan and hard drive are still going and the light never turns to the flashing amber. What's more I'm unable to wake it up or use the keyboard restart command. The only way to restart or shutdown are the buttons on the tower. So I've turned power saver off and now have just resorted to shutting down when it's not in use but that's pretty bad in the long run.
    Any ideas on what may have started causing this? Like I said it's beem working perfectly for a while now.

    Did you install a USB 2.0 PCI card and do you leave bus-powered devices connected to it, when the computer goes into sleep mode? There have been many reported sleep issues associated with USB 2.0 cards in the G4s. What name is printed on the main controller chip (sometimes it's hidden by the card manufacturer's label)? The consensus of opinion is that USB 2.0 cards with an NEC chip tend to have fewer problems. Additionally, it's a good practice to disconnect the bus-powered devices from the card, prior to letting the computer go into sleep mode.

  • MacBook Pro shuts down when put into sleep mode

    Every time I put my Mac into sleep mode (plugged in or not, charged or not), it shuts itself down, and I have to restart it. I just got it (brand new) in August, so I know the battery shouldn't be bad.
    It's been doing this for about a week... I just changed to Snow Leopard yesterday, and downloaded the software updates and everything, but it still shuts down.
    Anyone know what I can do (short of sending it to Apple) to fix this?

    Okay, well I already used smartsleep.
    It fixed the problem I was having, but now my macbook started having the same issues again this weekend. It's happened twice tonight in the span of 3 hours.
    Do I need to uninstall SmartSleep then?
    And here is the report I get when the macbook reboots:

  • Without thinking it through I disabled all USB ports in BIOS...

    ...on my HP Pavilion 23 All In One - is there any way to get into BIOS without USB support? Sorry if this has been asked and answered, if so I missed it...
    Thanks!

    Typically there is a jumper to clear the BIOS.  This is the PAGE for the motherboard, which does not indicate a jumper block.  My advise would be to remove the battery ( looks like a nikel in the picture of the motherboard ) for overnight.  Look for a jumper block indicating clear the CMOS.  For THIS model it appears, if available, it might be on the back of the motherboard.  The procedure to clear the CMOS is near the bottom of the page.

  • When I plug in an USB stick, my MacBook Air disables all USB devices

    When I plug in an USB device, my MacBook Air disables all USB devices and the keyboard. It looks like it would freeze, but all applications still work. It just does not respond to neither keyboard nor mouse. The only solution is to force-restart it. What can I do? I am using Lion and have updated it. The same error occured with Snow Leopard as well. Unfortunately, it sometimes happens and sometimes not. I have a suspicion it is related to the devices power consumption in corelation with the battery charging status.
    I am using a MacBook Air 13", late 2010 version.

    Have you tried plugging the flash drive into a different Mac to see if it works? The Air shouldn't have any problem with it, I use a couple of flash drives in mine, although I don't have a pq1. Did you try both USB ports on the Air? Do you have another flash drive you can test in the Air, or a different USB device, like a hard drive or printer?
    The only thing I can think of is either a bad flash drive, or a bad USB port on the Air. Sorry, can't be more help than that.

  • 975X Platinum - All USB ports suddenly dead

    Hello all,
    Something similar happened to my previous motherboard (I wrote about it here).
    This time though, it happened when I plugged in my scanner to one of the front panel USB ports. Windows displayed a USB power outage error kind of thing and all USB devices stopped working. I unplugged all USB devices. Plugging in any USB device now causes Windows to display the "USB device not recognized" message. Everything else seems to be working fine. Looks like some transistor got fried or something. Some people have suggested me to reset the BIOS and unplug all cables from the motherboard and then trying again. Have to do that yet.
    But this USB ports dying thing is really very annoying. I feel that if I buy a new motherboard, it would die the same way some day. This is bad. For the time being, I have installed a PCI 4-port USB host adapter to fulfill my USB related needs. If it serves me well, I think I would continue using my motherboard without it's USB ports working. I think it's far better than getting the whole thing replaced (retailers are really sluggish here and RMA could take 1-2 months to arrive). Basically, the whole situation just sucks as it is!
    Has anyone else faced similar problems?

    OK ... finally problem solved! Woohooo! Here's what I did:
    I was almost fed up. Two of my IDE HDDs (connected to RAID controller) stopped showing up in My Computer (and device manager). I decided to flush the board off all it's power. I unplugged the PSU, disconnected all power cables from devices and the motherboard. Removed RAM sticks, and finally, removed the CMOS battery. Reconnected everything back, and voila .... all USB ports started working! Also, HDDs appeared back in Device Manager. I had lost all hope! Talk about miracles! If anyone else faces this problem, be sure to try what I did. It might help.

  • LOST ALL USB PORTS

    Hey guys, really hope you can help cause I'm new at this.
    Just put together this brand new rig with Vista Ultimate, well here are my specs :
    MSI975X mobo
    4GB Corsair PC6400-800MHz RAM
    WD 320GB Caviar HDD
    Spire Pininfarina case
    ASUS Radeon EAX1950PRO 256MB graphics card
    Everything was running fine 5 minutes ago, when suddenly, after plugging in my digital cam to transfer a picture onto my HD, I lost ALL of my USB ports (front-2, back-6-including those on the D-bracket). I have no idea what happened but I was using a USB keyboard and USB mouse (diNovo Edge-Bluetooth, and Cordless Trackman-USB). Basically, when I plugged in my cam, the keyboard and mouse froze (then I realized that all USB ports had been lost, so it wasn't the keyboard and mouse at all). I had to restart the 'puter with the case's restart button, and then at the POST screen it said that there were no keyboard detected (of course). Then I had to take out an old PS/2 wired KB to reboot and enter Windows, and that's the KB I'm using now (along with an old mouse, PS/2 as well). I can't tell you how stressed out this makes me, because I have no idea what is the cause, and almost no experience at putting computers together. I think I installed everything correctly (the 9 & 10 pins on the USB headers are not used - my case included the correct connectors and I didn't have to unwire or cut anything), and all USB ports were working absolutely fine up until I plugged in my cam (in fact, I had plugged it in previously, and everything went fine).
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks in advance to the kind soul who will be able to provide me with advice that will solve this problem, which I hope isn't too bad.
    Oh, and yes, the USB keyboard and mouse were both enabled in the BIOS.

    Quote from: Maesus on 26-February-07, 09:34:59
    where do you plug your d-cam? front panel or back panel's USB port? If front panel, that means the port comes with the casing, not with the motherboard. MAke sure that your wired the USB cables correctly, and watch out of the 10th pin on the board, it is the OC pin (overcurrent). If your casing does not support this pin, don't plug it.
    No, my case's connectors have the correct configuration. The 10th pin doesn't have any wiring on it. But thanks for the input. By the way, how's life in Malaysia? I see you're from Penang... I'm fascinated by Kuala Lumpur for some reason. I'll be visiting your country as soon as I can, and particularly KL.

  • Itunes Freezes during Sync on 3G & 3GS with Vista 64 & 7-64 all USB ports

    To start. I originally had an iPhone 3G over a year ago on this desktop running Windows Vista 64Bit. My phone was able to sync with the PC for about a month and stopped being able to sync. I received many error numbers and put support tickets in with no avail. I then upgraded to an iPhone 3GS. Still under Windows Vista 64Bit and could not Sync my phone. It consistantly froze during the sync process. I tried all USB ports on my PC. People said to try restoring your iPhone and iTunes. I tried that and then got stuck on my restore. I had a broken phone until I was able to sync with my laptop.
    I now have the same desktop Acer AM3641-EQ8200A but I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. I have always had the latest iTunes version, and tried 32 bit and 64 bit versions of iTunes. I still cannot successfully sync my iPhone. If it sits there long enough it will freeze up, start to freeze my computer etc. I decided to try again last night after I got a new USB cord and had the same issue.
    In addition, my girlfriends iPod will not sync to the desktop either.
    I have been stuck doing syncs on my Netbook for over a year now. Optimization of 3,000+ photos is horrific on it, but it works.
    People say to get an external USB that is self powered. Why should I have to do this and chance frying my PC?
    The deal is this, the phones won't sync with the desktop but will sync with my netbook also running windows 7 ultimate. All USB drivers are up to date on both.
    I have tried Reformatting and Installing Windows. Reinstalling itunes. Updating all drivers. Tried different versions of iTunes. I first called Apple Retail, they had no answer. I wrote apple a lengthy letter with all the Error codes, they said they would call me even though my warranty over the phone support was expired. Never got a call back after they heard my problem.
    What can I do to rectify this? I am not the only one out there.

    UPDATE:
    After putting a USB 2 card in my mac, all worked properly. The problem seems to be using USB 1.1.
    This is really tragic because:
    + many Macs don't have USB 2,
    + it is very difficult to find out out if USB 2 exists on your computer (why are no USB 1 or 2 details spelled out in system profiler ?),
    + there are no warnings as to the sort of issues that would be coming up with USB 1.1 (yes I know the specs clearly says USB 2, but it looks like it was working at first),
    + there are no spelled warning by the system (after all, the iTune, iPod combination could detect easily that the incorrect USB standard is being used and warn the user),
    + there does not seem to be specific advantages to use USB 2 (like speed) as the syncing peaked at 6MB/s, a speed achievable with USB 1.1
    Come on Apple you can do better than this !
