  • Monitor enters power save mode on start up

    PC keeps crashing in game, after it crashes it shows the message DVI power save mode on my monitor. Sometimes it even crashes on boot.
    It all started when i tried to update my bios with live update(yes I know wrong choice, after I did this is read all the wrong things about live update on google)
    So i flashed my bios with an usb drive to 1.8, but it's still crashing
    Setup:
    MOBO: Msi Z87-g45
    CPU: Intel I7-4770K
    GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 4GB Dual SC w/ ACX Cooler
    memory: Corsair Vengeance LP CML8GX3M2A1600C9 4x4gb
    PSU: corsair HX750
    So I tried everything I could read about this problem on google, I even rma'ed my gpu and it still crashes.
    Anyone that can help me? or is the board bricked and should I rma it?

    Nope,  didn't do an oc,  sometimes after restarting several times i can run something. Like a game but after some time it freezes and gives a gray screen with 'dvi power saving mode'  after that nothing works,  no caps/numlock.
    I was thinking it was the gpu,  so i rma'ed it but when i had it back,  it gave the same thing.
    I thing it's the board,  pci slots or something
    Edit: it doesn't freeze with integrated gpu so it must be something with the slots?  Evga tested my gpu in another system.

  • PowerMac G5 hangs after going into screen saver power save mode

    I have a PowerMac G5 and it's been working fine, but as of late has been hanging. I had a couple of external disks on the machine ( Maxtor OneTouch II and a OneTouch III). I recently added two more OneTouch III and stripped the three OneTouch III's together in a RAID set. I'm wondering if that is causing the hangs, but I've also seen it hang without the RAID so I'm not convinced it's the RAID.
    Anyway, I can't figure out what's causing it to hang, but it seems to hang at some point after the screen saver runs and then the screen goes into power saver mode. It's not hung right when it shuts down the monitor, but at some point after that.
    When it gets in this mode, I can't remotely login using ssh and I can't seem to wake it up. What I end up having to do is to hold the power button down for several seconds until the machine powers off.
    In an attempt to see what's going on, I set the OS X monitor power save mode to "never", but I don't think I left it that way long enough and I never saw it hang.
    Does anyone have any debugging tips that would help me identify the culprit?

    I've been having the same troubles lately. Seem
    since the JAVA update. It hangs completely after the
    screen is shut down. Every morning I have to reboot
    with the power button.
    I am also joining the crowd with this issue. I have a 15" Powerbook G4 that has acted normally until recently. Not sure exactly when it started, but about the same time as the recent updates. Similar behavior to the previous forum posts.
    When I manually put the laptop to sleep it freezes up before it sleeps and the multi-language reboot warning comes up. This also happens if it is set to auto-sleep after xx minutes.
    When I try to wake it up, the screen is black and the power light shows it is on and it never unfreezes or I get the reboot message.
    I have tried everything I can think of to troubleshoot this. I just re-installed the 10.4.8 update over the exisiting one (using an external boot drive made with SuperDuper) and it still happens... BUT when I put the laptop to sleep with the startup drive being external, it seemed to behave properly. I can't figure this out since the external clone was made only minutes earlier from the laptop... and it works. I have zapped PRAM, and done the battery removal / power button reset.
    Below is the "report" I have been getting - and sending to Apple. They must be getting tired of the many I have sent.
    Any thoughts out there?
    Thanks.

  • My Andoid Devices wil not wake up my printer from Power Save Mode

    I have an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw istalled as a wireless network printer. I have various computers with XP and Windows 8 operating systems that wake up  the printer from Power Save mode without problems. I also can print wirelessly from my Windows 8 phone. The problem arises when I try to print from my Android devices. I have installed the HP All-In-One Remote App from the Android Store and they seem to have installed correctly. They recognise the network printer, tell me that it is Power Save mode but are unable to wake it up. Can anyone help with this one please?
    The Andoid version on the Tablet is 4.2.2
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello Jerends and thank you for your attention to my printer problem. My printer already has a fixed IP address so no need to go down that road. I managed to get around the problem by deleting the HP All in One App from my Android devices and replacing it with the HPePrint App. It's not perfect but does the job.
    Thanks again.

  • Force External Dell Display Into Power Save Mode

    How do I set up my MacBook Pro to send a video signal to my external Dell monitor to tell it to go into Power Save Mode when the MacBook Pro goes to "Sleep" (after the Preference set default of 14 minutes)?

    I've tried a factory reset on the monitors. My monitors sleep settings are fine and they wake up from being asleep perfectly. As of this morning my little trick of unplugging them and swapping connections has stopped working. Now, when I swap cables the video card automatically assigns the primary video output to one of the monitors and keeps the other one asleep. very strange. So when I unplug the mini video adaptor from the dvi cord and then place that same cord in the native dvi output on the video card the card automatically reassigns the primary video output to that channel. So no matter how much witching I do I always end up with the system acting like I have a stretched desktop but with only the left display working while the right one is asleep. It's time to give apple support a call.

  • U2312HM and second monitor = Entering Power Save Mode

    So, my monitor has not been able to turn on for about a week now. It shows that it's getting power, but after 3 seconds I get the message that it is going into power save mode. I am able to press some buttons on the monitor and a message pops up that there is no signal and to try typing or moving the mouse which doesn't work. I've attempted to change the input source which only leads to "No DisplayPort Cable - The display will go into Power Save Mode in 5 minutes.".  I have tried a separate monitor which is extremely less powerful and I get the same message that it's entering power save mode. Could this be a fried video card or what's happening here?

    Thanks for the reply Chris.  I do have both DVI and VGA out ports and I will be testing that today.  Not sure if this has anything to do with my issue or not but I might as well mention it.  I have 4 2 GB ram sticks which came with my pc.  I purchased two new 2 gb ram sticks due to some memory issues I was having.  The problem is, the two new ram sticks I had were not the correct size but I attempted to use them anyway.  Now prior to inserting these new ram sticks I cleaned my pc using air duster and a light suction vacuum cleaner, not sure if I got all of the dust.  Once I found that the ram sticks were not the right size I then reinserted my older ram sticks and this is when the monitor issue occurred.  A couple people had mentioned that this sounds like a bad video card, but could inserting wrong ram sticks affect the motherboard and in turn mess with the videocard?
    Also, roughly 3 weeks prior to the monitor issue, the lights on the side of my case are generally dark blue (but can not confirm if this is normal as I rarely pay attention to it.)  The only reason I bring this up is because the lights began to turn red, then a sortof clear light color progressively throughout the next couple of weeks, eventually not turning on at all.  Again, I've never really noticed the lights on my pc to begin with so this could not mean a thing.

  • Dell 2407 Monitor entering power save mode immediately!!! :(

    I have a Dell 24" 2407 Monitor hooked up to my 24" iMac (white 2.16GHz core 2 duo). Problem free for the past couple of years, until recently, my monitor keeps going into power save (when the iMac screen is active.
    It's connected via DVI, and the funny thing is, is that the iMac still detects the monitor, but it's in power save mode.
    I plugged the monitor into the MacBook Pro and it worked fine. So I'm guessing it's either the Mini DVI to DVI converter is stuffed OR something is wrong with my iMac. I'll try another dvi cable, otherwise will have to go to shudder VGA until I get a new Mini DVI to DVI converter. Unless anyone else has an idea as to what's going on?

    How about if you open System Preferences Displays pane Display tab... Click on +Gather Windows+ on the display that is working. Then try adjusting things like resolution and +color depth+ on the non-working display to see if that has any effect.
    Have you tried disconnecting the power cord on the display for a few minutes and reconnecting it? Does the display have an on-screen menu, and a command to reset the settings on the display to default?
    A few more tests, if it still does not work.
    Create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
    Log out and log in to the new account. In the new account, does the display work or not work properly? If it works in the new account, that would indicate some problem in your regular user account.
    Also try starting up from your Mac OS X installation disc. Does the display work when you are starting up from a different system? If so, that would indicate some problem in your current installed system.

  • "Entering Power Save Mode"

    Hi guys. I have an HP desktop and a Dell SR2320L Monitor. It was working fine until a few months back. I was out of town, came back last week and now every time I start my PC it just stays there "Entering Power Save Mode". I tried almost everything researching a solution for the problem but just won't work. Is there a way to check if the cable is the problem or the monitor or anything else? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.
    Ankur

    Hi Ankur,
    Monitor may enter in power saving mode when it does not get the enough power for its operations. If monitor is the cause, you may try to re-seat the monitor cable and ensure the connections are secure. You may also try to swap the ends of cable and check if the issue persists. Another step you may try is to use a good known cable and see if the issue persists. If it does, as a last resort you may try to reset monitor to factory defaults. For more information on this, you may refer to manual of monitor: http://bit.ly/10ErgRX
    Another possible cause of the same issue might be video drivers of your computer. You might need to uninstall and re-install the video drivers and may check the power options in operating system. You might need to check the HP website for download and installation of video drivers (relevant to the system model).
    Please share the findings. 

  • W520 - now changes to "projector only" whenever display turns off in power save mode

    I have my W520 in a dock with an external monitor. The display is configured to Extend - the external monitor is primary, and the desktop extends onto the W520 screen. I don't have a screen saver. I turn off the display after 30 minutes of inactivity. Until recently both the laptop and monitor screens would turn off after 30 minutes, and then both resume when I moved the mouse or pressed a key.
    Recently, the system has started changing to "Projector Only" when the display turns off. After resuming from power save mode, only the external monitor activates, and the W520 screen is disabled. I have to use Fn-F6 to switch back to "Extend" to re-activate the laptop screen.
    I have rebooted and re-saved the power plan.
    Why has this happened, and how do I fix it?

    Hi, timg11
    I have a few questions so that I may gain a better grasp of this issue:
    1) What is your machine type and model? You can find this information on the bottom of your machine. It should be in format XXXX-XXX.
    2) What is your operating system?
    3) Does this issue occur is the computer is not in the docking station? (Please try if you haven't already).
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

  • Power Save Mode - how to disable

    My new Pavilion laptop (model # 17-e123cl) is connected to an external monitor.  When I fold down the laptop screen the power saver mode kicks in and the computer goes off.  I want it to stay on so I can place my wireless keyboard on top of the Pavilion and use the big external monitor.  I was able to do this on my old Gateway but apparently not on this HP.
    Is there a way to disable the power saver mode when it is closed so the computer will keep running and I can use the external monitor?

    Hello gary,
    Please go to the Options dropdown and choose Edit and remove your Serial # from your post.
    Instead, it is more helpful to give your model number and operating system.
    What you need to do is go into "Power Options/Advanced settings/Power buttons and lid" and change what happens when you shut the lid.
    Here is a video from Microsoft on how to do it.
    Hope it helps.

  • Analog Clock in Power Saver mode?

    When the E71 is in a power saver mode (black blank screen) with the D-pad button glowing in a slow periodic pattern, you can press the D-pad button and a large digital clock showing the time appears. How can I change that to an analog clock instead?

    No, it is not possible to change that on the 3110c.

  • Stuttering MP3's in WMP 11 when in power saver

    Hi
    I have this problem where if I use WMP11 to listen to an MP3 and I put the laptop (T400) into power saver mode the MP3's stutter. When I say stutter, they play for 1 second, stop for 1 second, then start and play again for 1 second...this continues in this pattern. This will only happen though with low bit rate MP3's (16 - 32 Kbps)  It was suggested when I asked about this before it might be my CODEC at fault, so I converted some tracks to 128 Kbps MP3's and while that sorts the problem out, I have an unknown amount of music in the low bit rate MP3 format.
    The same tracks that stutter in WMP11 play OK in other players. When I put the laptop into performance mode the problem goes.
    Has anyone had this problem and solved it?  

    I would suggest taking a look at the following thread:

  • Lenovo G500s laptop monitor doesnt recover from power saver mode

    Hii everybody,
    i have been using this G500s laptop for an year or so...recently my laptop has started showing troubles with the screen saver or the power saver that comes by if i dont use my laptop for few mins..! when i dont use my laptop it goes to power saver mode and the monitor doesn not return back to power when i try to resume my work...!!! and interestingly i could hear the cooling fan running at high speeds and my laptop heating up... and it sounds like my whole laptop is working other than my monitor..!! my monitor is just a black screen..... and my system has began to slow down nowadays.. desperately need help on this..!! it has started becoming frequent

    hi Murali993,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    Just to verify, when the machine goes into Power Saver Mode (Standby / Sleep), can you check if the power button is blinking (this is an indication that the machine successfully entered Sleep State).
    If the power button is just a solid light and it's not blinking then the machine is likely not entering Sleep. In this case, consider doing the following:
    1. Turn off Hybrid Sleep under Control Panel (Icon Views) > Power Options
        - Link to picture
    2. Set the computer's power setting to HIgh Performance and disable the HDD's power management settings (see this guide)
    3. If you have external devices plugged-in (eg. Flashdrives), unplug them then perform a clean boot (this procedure temporarily disables background services/apps that are running in the background that's possibly hanging up the system as these are normally terminated before the machine goes to sleep).
    Let me know how it goes.
    Regards
