Problem with laptop and docking station

Hello.
We have two laptops with two docking station. Both laptops w/ docking have the same problem:
When the computer is turned off, and its still connected to the docking station, the fan in the computer start to run really fast. The fan goes on for a good while. This is making alot of noise, which can be annoying for the person using the office. When the computer is on, the fan runs at normal speed. If you disconnect the computer from the docking station, the fan stops immediately. Any ideas?
1. Product Name and Number
HP ProBook 6460b
Docking Station VB043AA
2. Operating System installed
Windows XP 32-bit
3. Error message
No error message.
4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred
No recent changes.
Thanks in advance.

It is possible the notebook is not completing the shutdown in full when docked.
Make sure the BIOS is the most recent version.
Here is the most recent one to try should you need it.
Other than that, I am afraid I do not have much else for this. I did some research, but I didn't really find anything that was exactly like this. I found scenarios where the fan would run at full speed when docked, but this happened whether the notebook was booted or not. You can try your luck in the business support forums to see if they may have something that is a little more helpful.

  • Problem with my new Docking Station

    So it is very weird. I got my Docking Station Yesterday, I have spent like 12 hours talk to different support, which is nice but not actually helping. I download all downloadable updates, tried to install different drives, but it is just not working.
    Problem is, first I think my docking station is broken, now I know the DIV port is working just fine, My USB 3.0 and 2.0 only work fine with my WD Portable Hard drives. I am sure about the USB port is not broken. But I can not connect to Ethernet with my
    Ethernet cable and also I can not connect my head phone to the Dock... I have tried on another Surface Pro 3 from my friend and it seems work just fine(USB can also connect other devices). I have no idea what is wrong with my surface, seems it is a software
    problem but not a hardware problem. Or maybe is it something about the damaged charging port on my Surface Pro?
    Guys, what should I do!

    I download all downloadable updates, tried to install different drives, but it is just not working.
    What is "Drives" do you mean "Drivers"? Please be clear.
    I know the DIV port is working just fine
    What is a DIV port? Do you mean DVI? The surface Pro 3 does not have a DVI port.
    My USB 3.0 and 2.0 only work fine with my WD Portable Hard drives.
    Your USB ports on the device, or on the Dock? If your USB ports work on the dock, then what is the problem?
    THis post is very odd. At no point to you list what kind of Dock you are actually using, I assume that you have a Surface Pro 3 with the Surface Pro 3 dock, but again, I'm not sure.
    First thing to do is to check the Device Connection, and verify that the machine can view each device.
    Plug the machine into the dock, and plug your WD Hard disk into the dock.
    Open the Device Manager (Devmgmt.msc), and set to "View --> Devices by connection"
    Find your WD Hard Disk in the tree, somewhere under ACPI --> PCI --> USB 3.0 Host Controller --> Etc...
    then you should be able to un-dock and re-dock, each time you should see the addition/removal of the USB devices, network adapter. IN addition, you should also see the battery icon in the tool bar change to charging, and the video should go in and out on
    your display.
    If you are not getting any changes, take your dock back and try to get it repaired.
    IF you *are* getting these changes, it might be time to review your software/driver problems. If all else fails restore the OS back to factory defaults. If you need further help, call Microsoft Support.
    As a side note, "Microsoft Deployment Toolkit" this is not the correct forum for Surface HARdware or Driver problems. It's a forum for people who work in Corporate IT Departments.

  • Calendar syncing problems with laptop and iphone

    Calendar entries on my iphone don't find their way to my ical on my laptop. When i connect and sync all ical entries are double entered on my phone. Please can anyone help.
    Driving me mad as i just can't rely on it!

    I think this might be the same problem I'm having, except that I'm having the same problem with both the calendar and the address book. I know things are syncing correctly between my work laptop, my home laptop, my home desktop, and MobileMe. My problem is with my phone. Everything synced fine until I upgraded to version 3. Then the phone would not update at all. I've tried to turn on the Contacts and Calendars in the Settings, but the "switches" won't stay ON. The Mail switch stays on with no problem. I finally forced the phone to sync through iTunes, but then I had double entries in the calendar and double contacts (on the phone only). So .. how to I get it to sync automatically, and how do I get rid of the double entries and contacts? Should I completely delete my account on my phone, and start over? I don't want to mess something up.

  • BEFW11S4 Problems with Laptop and Xbox 360

    For the past few weeks my Linksys BEFW11S4 has been malfunctioning. When I try to connect to the wireless network from my laptop, it says "Not Connected" but I can still access the internet for a few minutes before it really disconnects. Unplugging the router and plugging it back in lets me connect again, but still it gives the "Not Connected" message and boots me off within a few minutes. It has also been causing problems with my Xbox 360. It is connected with an ethernet cable to the router, but every time I turn the Xbox on it says that it is not connected. After I unplug the router and plug it back in, the problem is fixed, and I can go online on my Xbox for as long as I want. Anyone know how to fix this?

    It seems that router is not configured properly ..... checkthe firmware version on the status page of router ..... .
    Upgrade the firmware if required .....

  • TS2634 After I updated my iPod touch with iOS6, it does not work with my Logitech docking station. Is this a problem with iOS6?

    Does updating the 4th generation iPod touch with iOS6 keep it from working with a Logitech docking station/boombox? Nothing is wrong with the boombox.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If it still does not work that means that the update broke compatibility. That happens sometimes. You will have to wait for an update to either iPod's iOS or the dock's firmware.

  • HP8570W with HP230W enhanced docking station does not recognize DMI connections

    Hi,
    I have an HP 8570W workstation with the HP230W enhanced docking station. I have three monitors plugged in - one VGA, and two DMI. Everything has been working for about a year. Suddenly today the desktop started jumping around and then the DMI monitors went dark. I checked in resolution and they do not show up anymore. I rebooted. I took laptop off docking station and retarted and plugged back in. I unplugged and replugged the DMI cable. Nothing helped.
    Any idea what to try next?
    Thanks,
    SamBilbrey

    Hi SamBilbrey,
    Your Elitebook 8570w is a commercial product and to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting in the commercial forums. Here is a link to the Commercial Notebook forum.

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,
    Nanne

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled

  • [SOLVED] Problem with modules and udev

    Hi everybody,
    I've been configuring Arch on my new laptop the last few days and today as I was going to perform the first backup, I noticed that my external HDD does not show up in /dev/ when I plug it in. I figured it could be a problem with udev and the fact that in my /etc/rc.conf I use MOD_AUTOLOAD="no" with an explicit list of MODULES generated with hwdetect (as suggested in the wiki).
    To "solve" this I just changed MOD_AUTOLOAD to "yes" and after a reboot everything worked fine.
    My questions are:
    1) Is it possible to keep that feature (udev detects usb drives and creates the corresponding /dev/sdX) while having MOD_AUTOLOAD="no" ? What is/are the appropriate module(s) I have to put in my MODULES array ?
    2) What other such "basic" MODULES could be very useful that hwdetect does not tell about.
    Sorry for any English mistakes (I'm not a native speaker) and thank you in advance for your help,
    yms
    Last edited by yms (2010-01-06 12:48:20)

    1) Thank you, it works perfectly.
    2) Yes I know the question is weird. The thing is I have no precise idea at the moment and I just wanted to know if there are other very widely used features such as the one described in 1) that hwdetect ommits and that has to be loaded in MODULES.
    Anyway, thank you very much, I consider this matter [solved]

    it was working fine until yesterday, i've been searching about xcb_io.c but sadly i haven't found anything useful.
    Edit:
    it seems i can run it fine as sudo but not as a regular user
    Edit2:
    well it seems that there was something wrong with my .zsnes folder, i deleted it (well first i made a backup of it) and i can run zsnes again.
    Edit3:
    well, it seems i got a problem with opengl and my catalyst driver (but i'm guessing because i haven't tried with radeon) because i can use it without opengl but as soon as i change the video option to use opengl it crashes with the same error (zsnes: xcb_io.c:515: _XReply: Assertion `!dpy->xcb->reply_data' failed.) should i file a bug report or something???

  • Problem with EAP and RADIUS

    Try to eliminate any configured attributes on radius except those in IETF radius. Then try again.
    You may also chech by removing the shared eap as suggested above. Let us know if this works.

  • Problem with installation and activation

    Hi, I have a problem with the installation of Adobe Muse.
    I had a free 30-days trial, when it was over I bought the product ($ 13 per month), 
    I installed the program again and I see the same window with the finished Trials
    and it requires a serial number and does not allow to enter the program.
    I installed the program on your PC wife without any problems, but I can not install it on a laptop.
    I have a laptop with Windows 8 operating system.
    What I've done:
    1. Uninstalled the free program,
    2. check the connection to the Internet,
    3. has installed a new program from the official website adobe.com,
    4. Remove the line for the activation of the hosts file and resave the file,
    5. turned off the brandmower,
    6. rebooted.
    I can't get support for a 3 days, is it the most terrible support I've ever seen? I dunno

  • Problem with ssh and bash-completion

    I and a co-worker are having a weird problem with ssh and bash-completion. We have a local config in .ssh/config with hosts we connect everyday. An example:
    host foo
    hostname foo.org
    user foobar
    host foobar
    hostname foobar.org
    user foobar
    When we try to type
    ssh foo<tab><tab>b<tab>
    the console just freeze and we can't type anything, everything we type is ignored, but after about 30 seconds the host is completed.
    This works a some time ago, so some upgrade make this happen. Anyone can reproduce this?

    Thanks  quigybo, I use your patch, the issue is gone

  • Problems with Mail and Safari

    Hi,
    I'm running OS 10.11 and am having some consistent problems with Mail and Safari on my MacPro Dual 2.66. Here they are:
    Sometimes, for no apparent reason, selecting these applications from the dock no longer opens the application (or a new window if already opened), but causes them to be revealed in the finder.
    In Safari, when this problem occurs, another symptom seems to be that new windows will ONLY open in a new tab, even though I have preferences set to open links in a new window. If I click on a bookmark within a folder in the bookmark toolbar, Safari will open ALL the bookmarks in the folder in new tabs!!
    In Mail, when I open my Inbox, clicking on various messages will highlight (in blue) ALL the messages I'm clicking on, instead of simply displaying the highlighted message in the reader.
    The only way to get things back to normal is to reboot my machine, which is getting to be a total drag, especially since this seems to happen fairly often.
    One other thing that may be related- if my screen saver is running, and I move the mouse to go to an active screen, the computer will "freeze." It stays like this indefinitely- I figured out that if I press the button on the machine itself it will go to sleep, and I can wake it up and then everything is fine, but I don't understand what's going on.
    I have tried using Disk Utility and Disk Warrior, and have used OnyX to clean out my system cache and aall sorts of other stuff, but to no avail.
    Is anybody else experiencing any of this? I'm starting to get really frustrated. Thanks for any advice.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Scott,
    I had posted earlier that I had Flash payer problems and then QuickTime and PDF preview problems too, on my Intel PowerMac. I could not figure out what the problem was, because fixing permissions and moving plugins did not work. Console indicated that the Quicktime components were not found, with the problem in a webkit pref file somewhere (nil field value). Anyway, I bailed and reinstalled Leopard from a 10.5.0 DVD, and then updated using the combo updater to 10.5.3. Everything worked. Then, after the 'Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 1', it all broke again. This time, repairing permissions resulted in:
    User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home/lib/jvm.cfg", should be 0, user is 95.
    User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Libraries/classlist" , should be 0, user is 95.
    Now it all works again. This is obviously a flaw with the Java update, and also somehow Disk Utility did not find it earlier. Anyway, take a look at reverting the Java update, or manually changing user for those files (I suppose user 0 is root, but maybe it is nobody).
    Obscure....

  • Strange Problems With Display and Permissions Since 10.5.1 update.

    Since I've done the 10.5.1 update I have been having a strange problem with my desktop and dock displays. On my desktop I have these strange lines that appear any time I log in or open any application, the lines never go away and change locations on the screen once I open an application or move a window. My dock has the reflective shelf for about half of it, the rest is a dull grey. I've also had problems with verifying and repairing my permissions. I can never actually complete either permissions task. I've used some third party apps, they always fail as well. The only time I can actually repair my permissions is by booting in to single user mode and doing a fsck -f command. When I boot back in to Leopard and try to use the Disk Utility to repair, it continues to fail.
    I'm not sure if the video problem I am having stems from a permissions issue or possibly a corrupt video driver. Either way, I've done a lot research and haven't found anyone with the same problems I have been having so I thought I would give these forums a shot.
    I am using a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver with dual 800Mhz, 1.5gb RAM, and a GeForce4 Ti 4600 128mb video card.
    Here is a screen shot of the line and dock problem.
    Here is a screen shot of my "About This Mac.
    If anyone could lend some light on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.
