I have a HP Pavilion P6000 desktop, using Windows 7.

I have a HP Pavilion P6000 Desktop.  Model p6531p. For about 2 weeks now, if I stop using my computer for even 5 minutes,
the processor will turn itself completely off.  Is there something that was set incorrectly that I can change myself??  I'm using Windows 7 (if that makes any difference).

The model you have given is just a series number. For better assistance, please provide the full HP model name and/or product number of the computer in question. Please check "Control Panel" > "Power Options" for settings that may affect your computer in the manner you describe.

    Welcome to the HP Forums Hinalover,
    I see by your post that you are having issues with the print spooler on the Windows 7 computers.
    I can help you with this issue.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    Try running the Microsoft Fix It Tool to see if it will fix the print spooler.
    Diagnose and repair Windows File and Folder Problems automatically.
    You can also run the System File Checker to repair corrupted or missing files.
    System File Checker: Run sfc /scannow & analyze its logs in Windows 7 | 8.
    You might end up having to do a repair of Windows.
    Please let me know the results.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)

    why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)?

    Hello again @st3lla,
    I can understand the fear of messing up a computer when I first started seriously working on computers back in the early 90's I had to format and re-install my operating system twice a day for quite a while before I figured out a very important step (at least important for me), and that was after I made a change to my computer to restart it. This way if I messed something up I only had to undo one thing and not 50 because I went wild on it. lol
    Anyways, do not be afraid of your computer all you need to do is learn that step, how to keep your personal items backed up and then of course how to re-install your computer back to factory and you can always start over with a fresh build.
    On to your questions:
    Q - What are the steps to ensure that all HP updates are done.
    A - Simply review the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8) and it will guide you through the process.
    Q - What are the steps to ensure that all Windows updates are done?
    A - Simply review the Microsoft Support document: Windows Update: Frequently Asked Questions and again you will find answers to this question. (***Note: Do not worry if the document refers to Windows 8.1 it is only an upgraded version of Windows 8 and the steps are the same)
    I am also including a Windows Support document: Install the latest Windows 8.1 Update, which will guide you through how to install the Windows 8.1 update on your computer.
    And finally, to put your mind at ease I am providing you with two important HP Support documents: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), and Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), which will provide you with all the instructions you need to backup your personal files so you do not loose them if you ever do mess up the computer, as well as provide you with instructions on how to put your computer back to how it came from the factory.
    Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you once again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

    if my external hard drive is not connected to either of my machines, and I download something onto my iMac and then something different onto my Macbook, where are my machines going to be storing the new downloaded media
    when the drive is not connected, +iTunes media folder location+ will default back to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)
    and when I next connect the external hard drive how will I easily get the newly downloaded media onto the external HD
    you'd have to point +iTunes media folder location+ back to the external via preferences > advanced > iTunes media folder location, then file > library, organize library > consolidate files
    and essentially, to have it easily readable on both machines?
    in that case it might be best to copy the entire iTunes folder to the external. then, on each machine, launch iTunes while pressing option on your keyboard. when prompted, click on +choose library+ and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external.
    note only one iTunes can access the iTunes library @ a time !
    also, make sure the external is mounted on either machine before launching iTunes.

  • Is there a way to flip the pages in a .pdf so that all of the text is readable (in other words all documents are right side up)?  I have Adobe Acrobat X and am using Windows 8.1.

    Is there a way to flip the pages in a .pdf so that all of the text is readable (in other words all documents are right side up)?  I have Adobe Acrobat X and am using Windows 8.1.

    I have a pdf with over 2,000 pages, many of which are sideways.  I do not want to manually flip each one (few are next to each other).  Is there a way to automate the function so that all sideways or upside down text pages are righted?

    Newly installed Acrobat will NOT open from Creative Cloud app on Desktop using Windows 7 Pro - what's the problem?

    the cc desktop app is used to install and update cc programs (and a few other thinigs).  but that does not include 'opening' the installed programs.
    click your start button or your program files directory to find the acrobat executable to launch acrobat (and any of your other apps, adobe or otherwise).

    I have Photoshop 4.0.  I use Windows 7.  Photoshop keeps crashing.  Is there an update or a fix?  Thanks.

    Is your windows 7 a 32 or 64 bit operating system?
    Do you have the photoshop 4.01 update installed?
    What is the size and free space of the drive that you installed ps 4 on?
    How much ram does your computer have?
    If you right click on the ps 4 shortcut and choose Run As Administrator, does that make a difference?
    Under File>Preferences what are the settings under Plug-ins & Scratch Disk and Memory & Image Cache?
    Sorry for all the questions, but ps 4 was made well before windows 7, so it's not as easy to tell what might be wrong.

  • Audio duplicate feature on hp pavilion-1247cl notebook using windows 7 not working

    . i have a hp pavilion dv6-1247cl laptop.running on windows 7 initially i was able to use the duplicate feature-fn/f4 key to display and hear my web page on the tv screen using the hdmi cable connection. i am unsure if i have accidentally changed a setting recently on my laptop or what,but i am unable to get sound audio any longer through my tv or receiver system as before. the video from the laptop on the tv still shows fine the hdmi connection ran computer to tv then audio cable out from tv to receiver. i can get the sound to work if i connect an audio cable directly fron the hp headphone jack on my laptop into the same audio input channels in my receiver. anyone got any ideas if the laptop is on the fritz or do i just need to change some setting ps the laptop is relatively new thanks for any input ..

    Thanks for the help, but I found the program to fix it. After searching for hours. I stumbled upon this link and it finally worked and the unknown device was only my headset and the other one I just updated by making it search online for the software.

  • "An internal error has occurred" message when scanning from MX922 to desktop using Windows 7

    I am no longer able to scan using my MX922 connected to my desktop running Windows 7 without getting a message on my desktop saying "An internal error has occurred".  I have turned the MX922 on and off, I have disconnected both the power cord and USB cable from the MX922 and from my desktop, I have reconnected the USB cable to a different port on my desktop, I have uninstalled all Canon programs from my desktop and reloaded all Canon programs with the MX922 CD, and I have restarted the desktop multiple times.  I scan documents several times a week for my business. It has worked fine until today. What do I need to do to correct this problem and get back to scanning?

    Hi boisseaujm,
    If you temporarily disable any antivirus or firewall software that is on your computer, then attempt to scan again, are you able to scan successfully?

  • Connecting playbook to desktop using Windows XP

    I get the idea that no one has ever connected desktop to playbook using windows xp as the platform.
    Am I correct ?
    Is my best option to just dump desktop in a bin and try to connect playbook directly to the usb ???
    Comms works fine for back up but I guess its something windows xp does to drivers - similar to the problem with windows 7.
    Does playbook interface with ANY windows platform ?????

    Hi:
    I would just use Windows Update to manage your security and other updates.
    I doubt you will get any new drivers, etc for your machine and periodically if you want you can always check the driver download page for your PC:

  • Just updated iTunes now it freezes and crashes my computer? anyone have a solution? I'm using windows 7 home premium

    My iTunes has been freezing when it opens then crashes my computer. I have uninstalled it, reinstalled, updated yet it still will not open? I am using windows 7 home premium 3.2GHz with 4Gig of ram. All my other programs work flawless but iTunes will not? anyone have a solution?

    Having found a working library file it may pay to copy it into the standard location and reconnect to it there. See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash for the steps I would normally have given.
