KM3M-V system's PSU not powering down ...

Hi all,
I got a KM3M-V installed and working fine. But upon shutting down WindowsXP Pro /sp2, the mobo and CPU fan powers down, but the PSU fan remains running for hours ... and never stops.
Any idea? Thx!

Get another PSU! I agree with Wonkanoby. The one you got is mostly meant for a Cube system of some kind, and the PSU has been discontinued, probably because it wont even power these. This is the closest to an amperes list I come:
DC +3.3V +5V -5V +12V -12V +5V-SB COM PS-ON PW-OK
OUTPUT 11.5/18.7A 16/13A 0.3A 11A 0.3A 2.0A RETURN REMOTE P.G.

As compared to newer Cubes:

Thanks Fedrik! I think I might just have to go this way ... I just want to make sure its not the mobo. But since its working fine as it is, except for the switching off issue, I might just go for a new mobo. In the meantime, I'll just power off the socket!

Computer not powering down

Something interesting cropped up today - my iBook will not shut down using the normal method. I tried Apple>Shut Down>Shut Down, I tried Apple>Shut Down and then letting the count down expire, and lastly, when I hit the power button, I clicked on the Shut Down button there. No such luck. The only way to get it to turn off is to hold down the power button.
The only thing new is a SanDisk 1 gig flash drive "cruzer," but I was able to use the normal shut down routine last night after using the flash drive for the first time (and the flash drive has not been plugged in until after the boot up is completed). Nothing else has changed - no downloads since the last Office update about a week ago.

Hi,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Resetting the PMU should take care of it.

Macintosh HD not powering down. Yours may be running 24 hrs a day like mine did.

This is my second attempt to inform this forum of a hidden problem I've found with my hard drive continuously spinning for no reason.
My 5 year-old domestic iMAC Macintosh HD disc drive burnt out, literally. After removing it and taking it apart, I found foam rubber had burnt over a small chip.
I replace it with an external drive (re-named it Machintosh HD) and restored my system via Time Machine.
After some time, I noticed the drive's light was on in the morning after it had not been used all night! The screen was black.
Investigation using Activity Monitor (Applications/Utilities/Application Monitor.app) showed that writes (red lines) were made to the disc before it had time to shut-down. I don't know if it's an OS 10.6 or a hard-drive specified time-out to power down, but the writes were before then, so it never shut-down.
WORD 2004
This was the first I found to cause the problem. Is it a Microsoft or Apple OS problem, I don't know. What happens is that even with no documents open, just Word open, a small amount of Data is written before the drive can power down, so it's continously spinning (I've felt the vibrations and heard it running). Thus, when I was doing a lot of Word processing a few years ago, I left it open for days-on-end without knowing the hard drive was continously running (24x7). No wonder it burnt-out.
SAFARI
This is another source of the problem that I've found. Sometime it's a problem, sometimes it's not. However, it appears that it does depend upon what activity Safari is doing, eg flashing, blinking, what-ever. Haven't tracked it down as I'm happy to just shut it down when not needed when it no longer is a problem.
Maybe this is still an issue with OS 10.7 (Lion), Microsoft Excel, Power Point 2004 or newer versions of them and Word. I don't know.
You may need to check it out so your drive doesn't prematurely pack-up like mine did.

Agree 100%! There seems to be no helpful instructions on how to manage Sharing & Permissions using the GetInfo panel. I'd like to ensure that my user files are only readable by myself. If I log in with my Admin name and password on Partition #1 and open my home folder, I find that Myself, Staff and Everyone has Read/Write privileges, by default. Is that stupid, or what?
I think so, because if I reboot as admin from Partition #2 that has its own, separate Snow Leopard system, I find to my dismay that I can still see virtually all of the contents of Partition #1, including all of my Partition #1 Admin home folder files!
Again rebooting from Partition 1, when I getinfo on my admin home folder, I could set myself to Read & Write, and set 'Staff' and 'Everyone' to "No Access".
But in the English language, "everyone" means EVERYONE, (which also includes MYSELF, right???) So, if I set Everyone to "No Access", will it remove MY read & write access? Or, If "everyone" REALLY means "everyone else", why didn't they simply call it "everyone else" in the first place?
Next question: Who is "Staff"? Does that include Everyone, or some sub-set of Everyone? Am I, as Admin, part of "Staff"? But it gets even worse: Who is "Unknown User"? I see this appear, sometimes. Really, this is enough to drive a person to consume multiple Margaritas...!!!

(955X Platinum) IDE HDDs on VIA Controller not powering down

Hello,
I never had this problem on any motherboard that I've had. Currently, I have one SATA HDD connected to Intel ICH7R controller and two IDE HDDs connected to VIA IDE Controller (running in IDE mode). I have set Windows to power down the HDDs after 30 min. of inactivity (through the Screen Saver tab > Power button). SATA HDD does power down after the specified inactivity period. The two other IDE HDDs don't power down and are spinning all the time.
I always keep my PC on and would like the HDDs to power down when I'm out (sometimes days on end). I have FTP and HTTP servers set up and can access my data remotely whenever I need to and hence do not want to turn off the PC when its not in use !
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

pck, the advantage of having your IDE HDD on ICH7's very own IDE because this IDE is channeled directly into the southbridge. However, the VIA RAID controller is sit on top of PCI bus, then only channeled back to the southbridge (ICH7). Somemore, PCI bus is a shared medium with other PCI devices. However, ICH7's very own IDE is dedicated.
And of course, ICH7's very own IDE can support turn off HDD.
and VIA's controller DOES support Optical drives.

PC not powering down

When I run 'shutdown -h now' my PC (PII 166Mhz) will shutdown but not power off. I've tried out several Linux distros on this box, including RedHat and Slackware, and Arch linux is the only distro which doesn't power off. With Slackware I had to run 'modprobe apm' but that module doesn't appear to be available for Arch (even after I added package 'apm'). Am I missing something basic here? Should 'shutdown -h now' power off the PC? In case it is of importance, GRUB config is as below:-
timeout 5
default 0
color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue
title Arch Linux [/boot/vmlinuz26]
root (hd0,2)
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/discs/disc0/part3 ro

As suggested I re-compiled the kernel with only APM support (including APM realmode-power-off), but with no effect - the PC still halts but does not power off. Should there now be a different parameter in GRUB? I tried 'modprobe apm' (which is what worked for Slackware) but I just got 'module does not exist'.

Battery drains unless shut down on top right. Just touched, not powered down

I suspect this has to do with some App that is too power hungry. My prime suspect is NEST. Any thoughts?

Used the timer on my iPhone. From green status light (turned off) to when I woke up it was eight hours, 41 minutes, 48.6 seconds later and the battery status was as follows:

MacBook - bluetooth doesn't work and system will not shut down

Hi all together!
I have a problem with my MacBook with the newest updated Tiger 10.4.11: First the bluetooth went off and after using the hardware test the system sayed "no hardware problems". After this I recreated my system with the original MacOS-CD. It shut down properly but the bluetooth still didn't work (Meanwhile I've bought one of that 10 EURO external mini bluetooth adapter and it works). After updating, it did not shut down again and showed that bad "circle turning string thing". Then it went blue and nothing else happened. Sometimes it shuts down regularly but the most times I have to use the button for 5s. I don't think that's healthy for the computer. It seems that no one of my friends knows why this happens.
Greetings

Well, I can't guess for how long it has been like this. Don't take responsibility for something that isn't your fault, even if it is your friend's system. I wont. Should it be your fault I hope you tell us what measures you did trying to help.
Say what PSU you got. Model and name and specs. please.
The only case-to-motherboard connections you really need is Power. Start with getting that right according to motherboard and case manuals. You will probably not be able to see the text printed on motherboard about pin setting. And guessing will be of little help here. If you know what case it is Internet is your friend.

Cpu frequency scaling not working and hdd powers down

Hi,
I recently made a fresh reinstall on my laptop keeping only my user settings (home directory) but no system-wide settings (/etc).
Now I have the following issues:
1) CPU frequency scaling does not work. KDE's PowerDevil tells me, my CPU does not have scaling capability and when I try to start cpufreq, I get this error message:
# /etc/rc.d/cpufreq start
:: Setting cpufreq governing rules , cpu 0 1Error setting new values. Common errors: [BUSY] - Do you have proper administration rights? (super-user?)ble_governors: No such file or directory
- Is the governor you requested available and modprobed?
- Trying to set an invalid policy?
- Trying to set a specific frequency, but userspace governor is not available,
for example because of hardware which cannot be set to a specific frequency
or because the userspace governor isn't loaded?
The governor modules are loaded:
# lsmod | grep cpufreq
cpufreq_userspace 2096 0
cpufreq_powersave 942 0
cpufreq_ondemand 7990 0
freq_table 2339 1 cpufreq_ondemand
cpufreq_conservative 9172 0
This used to work out-of-the box with the previous install so I'm a bit puzzled.
2) My hard drive powers down after a few seconds of inactivity, just to power up a few seconds later when it's accessed again. The hard drive never powered down on my previous installation. I do not have any power management daemons running and this behavior starts right after booting the machine, before I log in.
I would like to disable this "feature" since I think it's rather bad for the hard drive's health as well as battery life.
Any ideas?:)
EDIT: Cpu frequency scaling is fixed now, forgot to load the acpi_cpufreq module.:rolleyes: There's still the issue with the hard drive, though.

The HDD thing is caused by upowerd, dunno why though.
You can try: hdparm -B 254 <disk device>, but that wont solve the problem permanently, only till you plug and unplug again the AC supply.
you can also try killing upowerd and things will (at least that was the case for me) be alright.
Maybe this is upowerd bug?

Since I updated my 4S iphone to the latest iOS7 version, I can no longer close any of my apps. As a result, all my apps remain open on my phone. Even powering down and restarting does not solve the problem. Specifically, the icons don't wiggle anymore.

Since I updated my 4S iphone to the latest iOS7 version, I can no longer close any of my apps. As a result, all my apps remain open on my phone. Even powering down and restarting does not solve the problem. Specifically, when I double-click the start button, my open app icons display. But when I hold my finger on an icon, the apps do not wiggle and display an "x" to close. Any advice... thanks?!

Double tap the Home button, then swop upwards on the App Preview (not the App Icon). Tap the Home button again when done to return to normal screen.

My Mac Mini was not sending a signal to the monitor. I powered down using the power button and now it will not start. When i power up I get a strange 2 tone sound, like a warning alarm. The fan starts, and the light comes on, but no screen

I have tried with a wired USB keyboard and mouse using a single screen. Powered up with option pressed. No change.
Reset SMC no change

Run the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.

Time and date settings change when phone is powered down (not shut off)..

I recently installed the iOS 8 update and immediately noticed that the time and date settings would change when I powered down my iPhone. I did not turn off my phone, only clicked the button to power down or save power. I have tried all the fixes, suggestions, etc., but I am still having issues. In the power down state, I am able to receive phone calls or texts but when I go into my phone, the time and date will be off. It stops from the moment I click the button to power down the phone. Please don't get this confused with turning off the phone completely. This happens when I click the button for power down or power save, however it is described.
So, how do I fix it? Is the app/software for the clock the problem? Is the battery distribution the problem? For some reason, in power down mode, the clock is not receiving constant power in order to keep accurate time. It stops the moment I click the button. Any suggestions? fixes, etc. I could try. Apple support techs were absolutely no help what-so-ever.

This sounds exactly like what is going on with my phone, http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/10/19/iphone-5-date-time-glitch/

Two days ago, I loaded Light Room 6. Today I went back to Light Room 5. LR 6 corrupted an entire folder of images, and caused errors on my Raid 5 causing win 7 to run "Chk Dsk" and fix the errors to the operating system. LR 5 has not shut down for the last 5 hours. LR 6 has a serious bug. Anyone else experiencing this problem. Yesterday I was on tech support, waiting for 3 hours, finally they picked up and informed me there department was closing and someone else would call me on Monday. So, I'm working today and all day Sunday to make up for the down time using LR 6.
I don't know if the bug exists in the program or the "Creative Cloud.
Question: Does anyone know why if I bought Light Room 6 [NOT Light Room CC with the monthly rental], I have to enter my serial number if I want to use it?

Entering the serial number is probably part of the registration process.
Just out of curiosity, what were you doing on LR6 when the folder of images became corrupted?
