[KT4V] speaker biiips when I plug power cable

Hi,
My mother board has a strange problem for some months.
Each time I disconnect and reconnect the power cable, I hear the system speaker doing a very long biiip (about 30sec - 1minut). And during that, I can't start my computer.
It's very strange and annoying. I don't know where this problem comes from. Before that, it worked perfectly!
My computer :
MSI KT4V (MS-6712)
AMD Athlon XP+ 2000
2*256 DDR
GeFOrce 5900XT
SoundBlaster128PCI
CD burner and DVD player
120 + 80Go hard drives
300W PSU
I hope you'll help me!
THX!

Just to know, why do you pull the power cable?
Because there are some thunders and I don't want my computer to burn

And does the system shut-down properly?
Yes, both in windows and Linux
Quote from: Fredrik Åsenius on 28-July-05, 05:03:40
A final question, what are the temps of your system?
It's quite hot at the moment... between 49 and 55°C for the CPU and around 31°C for the box

Well, your P.S. is very poor. Try with a better one with More AMPS.
My computer works for 2-3 years with this PS, so, it has enough AMPS. I'll try with another oine. If it works, that means that my PS will die...

My iphone 5 can't be charged. When I plugged my cable in, it just does show any charging sign. I have confirmed that it is not a cable problem

Remove any lint/debris from the lightning port.
Use an official Apple cable.
Connect it to a wall outlets, some USB ports do not output sufficient power.
If none of the above resolves, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

Brightness issue (when unplugging/plugging battery cable)

Hi,
on my laptop, when unplugging the battery cable, the screen becomes darker.
When plugging it back, the screen becomes brighter, but not as bright as from start.
To restore my previous brightness, I need to use xbacklight (or xrandr --brightness).
Even, xbacklight -get is enough to restore the correct brightness.
I don't have any of cpufrequtils, pm-utils, powernowd, laptop-mode-tools or any package to manage the power.
My video driver is intel (i915).
Do you have any idea of: what's causing the screen to change brightness when plugging/unplugging the battery ?
Why, after plugging the battery back, it doesn't restore its previous brightness until I try to get the brightness from the os ?

Hi, if you don't use any of the acpid, pm-utils, laptop-mode-tools, etc. "magic", it seems to be a BIOS feature. You may try to disable it via setup, or try to find a kernel module specific to your NB manufacturer/model (eg. dell-laptop) to override the ACPI BIOS.

New Xserve automatic startup what I plug power cable

I just got a new Xserve (Intel base ) , and I found it's really stranger . Every time , I plug the power cable , it will automatic power on and startup even I have press the power button .
Use software update , reset pmu , It don't work .
So I try to set # nvram 'auto-boot?=false' , still don't work .
Is there anybody has same issue ?
Xserve Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Jing Hui Zhou-
Greetings and welcome.
Unless there is a physical problem, perhaps it is a setting. Check System Preferences->Energy Saver->Options and uncheck the box that says "restart automatically after a power failure".
If that isn't it, perhaps there is a hardware problem.

No Alarm beep when unplugging the power cable from an L530?

With my new ThinkPad L530, I miss the beep when the power cable is unplugged. So far, I did not find any option to switch that alarm on. Has this function been removed completely?
thanks

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I hope you know what is modding in general? Same goes for bios. Meaning editing the bios image and unlock the hidden options a andcthen flashing the bios. This method voids warranty so it isn't recommended. Though you can have a look here

HT1420 How do I get my iphone 4s to load everything onto itunes to do a master reset when it will not allow me to charge it when it is turned on. When I plug the cable into the usb on the computer and the phone at the same time nothing happens.

My phone will not back itself up to icloud because it takes too long and the battery dies before it can complete it . Its been months since it backed itself up and I cant get it to charge when it is plugged in and connected to wifi. I do not want to loose my pictures. This is sooooooo frustrating .

Hello Toniamato,
It sounds like your phone is not charging or charging very slowly. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

My battery meter is not showing up. Also when I plug my cable into charge the computer sparks are being discharged from the connection at the computer. What is going on?

Consistently need a hard reset when re-plugging power.

Each time I unplug power to my TC neither of my macbooks will recognize the TC. The only procedure that seems to work is to do a hard reset of the TC while plugging the power back in. Must I do this every time I unplug the power to the TC?

OK, thanks for the additional info. A few more suggestions:
"When I power the TC up normally my Macbooks will recognize it neither as a hard drive nor as a wireless router, they cannot "see" the TC at all."
Can you check your settings in Applications > Utilities > Airport Utility - Manual Setup on this? Click the Wireless tab to display your network settings for wireless.
Wireless Mode should be "Create a wireless network"
Wireless Network Name should be your name for your network
Radio Mode: Good choice would be 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)
Channel: Automatic
Security: WPA/WPA2 Personal or WPA2 Personal
Password: Your password for the network
Under the Options button, make sure that the "create a closed network" box is not checked
Update to save any changes
To see the TC in the Finder under the SHARED heading when you open your Hard Drive, try the following:
Click in an open area on the desktop so the Finder menus appear at the top of the screen
Click the Finder menu, then click Preferences
Under the "Show these items on desktop" heading, make sure there is a check mark in the box next to "Connected Servers"
It may take a few more tries, but we should be able to get you going.

MacBook won't start - no power even when connected to power cable

Dear Apple,
I have an older MacBook that I am not using regularly anymore - only to synchronize my music to my iPod.
When I tried to start it a couple of days ago, it wasn't starting up. Thinking the battery was flat, I connected it to the charger cable and tried to boot.
Unfortunately, that also did not work. It seems the battery is not charging, and the laptop simply doesn't boot, also when plugged to the charger.
When I check the control-lights on the back, none of the 5 green lights come on. Also not when plugged to the charger.
What is the advise on how to fix this? I could get a new battery, but it would be a waste of money if I am not sure if this will actually solve the problem.
Kind regards,
Sjoerd Manschot

Volume bar remains at speaker volume when I plug in headphones, yet the actual volume level is correct

Anyone else have this problem?

Hi,
I have the same problem since I upgraded to ios 5. i restored many times the ios, but it doesn't work !
- the slider volume bar has disappeared. ==> No sound in applications, music, games... It is impossible to control the volume with the + and - buttons.
- the phone rings and I can hear/change the ring tones in the sound menu (the + and - buttons work)
- the message/mail don't ring , and I can't hear them in the sound menu
- During a phone call, if I put the conversation on speakers ==> it works and the volume bar reappears. I can control the volume with + and - buttons. But when the conversation is over, the bar disappears again.
- With the headphones, everything is ok!
Can you confirm that your problem is similar to mine ?
It sounds like a ios 5 bug, isn't it?!

Sorry for my english

Hello AmlnnN,
I understand have you finished doing a little maintenance   work on the computer it now freezes periodically is that correct? I will do all I can to help you resolve this issue.
First thing lets run a couple test on some of your hardware.
See steps below:
1.       I want you to boot into the bios menu this link will show you how.
2.       Once in bios go over to the diagnostic option at the top.(Note you will need to use the arrow keys to navigate)
3.       You may see 2 test there if that is the case run both test.
4.       It may take some time so please have the ac adapter plugged in.
5.       Once the test finished press F9 to setup defaults and then press F10 to save and exit.
Also find out while you’re in the bios if the computer ever freezes there.
Pleas respond back with your results at your earliest convenience.
Thank You

Satellite Pro L20 - power cable overheating

Hello
For several months I've had problems with keys suddenly working intermittently. Although brushing below keys with a toothbrush eased the problem for a while it obviously wasn't the main cause. Different keys each time, so not attributable to individual damaged keys.
When unplugging the power cable the metal part is very hot, and I've worked out the keys problem happens only when the computer is running on a/c AND the battery is fully charged. In other words, no problem on battery or re-charging battery. The adapter is also hot but presume this is 'normal'.
The power cable has been tested directly from another socket and not running from the usual belkin surge protector, so external sources seem ruled out. I have been trying to find another cable/adapter to test but living very rurally doubt this will be possible/practical.
The fan seems to be running OK, the air coming out the side is very warm. It doesn't appear to be dust-clogged. The area of laptop above the fan also gets warm.
Sometimes the computer crashes to black screen or blue screen (on iplayer most recently, maybe other progs too) but sound continues. I off by holding the on button for 5 seconds but it won't power on again for a while. I assume from overheating. But not certain this is always on a/c-not charging, it may be on a/c-charging as well.
Sometimes the computer seems confused whether it's re-charging, on a/c or on battery. At least the icon switches, and requires a session of unplugging before getting it right.
Other times it's the angel machine it's been for the last two years! It's a Satellite Pro L20, the adapter is LiteOn 65W clover, 19V 3.42a. part no PA3396E-1ACA (which I see Is no longer available).
Have searched through but not found any similar problems, but hope someone can advise me what to do next!
Many thanks in advance

Hi
I had the L20 series several years ago and as far as I can remember the DC in was at the back near the left notebooks side.
The cooling modules are placed at the left too and I assume the AC adaptor plug could be a little bit warmer due to the hot air which flows out from the left.
But listen Robin, this is only my personal theory and speculation and as the previous user already said, this issue could be related to the faulty AC adaptor too.
Therefore contact the ASP in your country and ask for the further handling.
Possibly the technicians will need the faulty part for a check and you will need to send it.
Anyway. contact the guys and ask for the help.
Good luck
