T60 does not boot up from sleep mode

Hi,
My client has a T60 with an advanced docking station. When he leaves the office he undocks and puts it into his bag and goes home. The laptop is set to sleep when the lid is closed. When he returns the following day, it has switched off and when he redocks and switches it on, it says it is resuming then goes blank. It is on, hard drive light flickering etc but he cannot work on it. We have to hard reset and then halts at the safe mode options, I choose "start Windows normally" and it boots up fine. It's running Win7 Professional. Please advise if there is any software that can undock gracefully or any other suggestions would be appreciated...thanks, 

he needs to switch off the laptop and then undock, otherwise the machine would think he is still in docked mode.
Or he needs to eject the machine out of the docking station (by pressing the no. 1 eject button on the dock), put to sleep and then undock.
Regards,
Jin Li

    But I recommend you downloading such BIOS manually from the Toshiba European driver page and then to run a update
    Read the also FAQ: [how to update the BIOS |http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=60] before starting such procedure.

  • HP Envy Laptop will not Wake up from Sleep Mode with Windows 10

    The reason I decided to go back to windows 8 was because since upgrading to Windows 10, when my computer goes into sleep mode, I cannot wake it up. I have to press and hold the power button to shut it done and restart. Even if I close my laptop, and reopen the lid, it wont start back up and I have to press and hold the power button and shut it down and restart.  After trying to restore my HP Envy Laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 8, it got stuck in a Repair PC Loop and I could not even access the desktop, I tried the restore option to an earlier date and that failed and all the repair options also failed. The last option I had was to do a full PC Refresh, and that one worked. It took about an hour but no data was lost, and only a few of my downloaded apps were removed. An html url was left on the desktop that showed a list of all the apps that were removed. So all I did was download those back and now im back up and running Windows 8.  I want to re-download Windows 10, does anyone have a fix for this issue?

    Hello mistyb1,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the printer not waking up from Sleep Mode.
    I do have a few suggestions that we can try.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once you have the printer connected to the wall outlet, please use the ON/OFF button to do a proper power cycle.  This will do a Semi power reset on the printer.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • My MBA does not start up from sleep

    My MBA 13" mid 2013 (Mavericks) does not start up from sleep at times, or at least is very slow (1-2minutes)
    As far as i remeber the only thing installed fairly resent is Virual Box.
    It does connect to my iPhone when its connected to via USB but the sceen stays black.
    Anybody else with this problem?

    Hi bryan808-
    It could be that the failure and installation of the update are simply a coincidence.
    Back up. Then try removing all PCI cards and disconnect all external devices except your monitor, keyboard, and mouse. If that configuration will wake from sleep then start adding devices and/or cards one at a time until you find the culprit that keeps your machine from waking.
    If you are really running a G4 you will have better luck posting in the appropriate section of that forum: Ctegory: Power Mac G4

  • Mac Pro will not wake up from sleep mode

    Hi,
    In my Energy Saver I have my system set to go to sleep after 15 minutes of not being used.  Unfortuantely, when I try to wake the system up from sleep mode, it freezes on the screen saver and I have to hard restart the computer to get it to turn on again.  I see that this is an issue with MacBook Pros, but I'm not seeing much in the Mac Pro Towers.  I did see a thread about Parallels VM causing causing OSX to not wake up from hibernation mode, but I am not always running my VM Ware when the system decides to not wake up.  Any help/advice is appreciated.
    Thank you,

    OS X Version 10.6.7
    2x 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon

    .... and you fail to mention the model SSD and firmware version... or how you installed or cloned the system
    most people also move most of their user folder to another hard drive.
    sounds like a more normal Mail + OS issue if just that.
    hard restarts = directory corruption so don't reboot w/o first either Recovery Mode, then follow up with Safe Boot.
    And maybe you have 3rd party hardware or software that is not compatible with 10.8.2 needs to be considered as well.
    2008 model 3,1 also are having a lot of issues this year. Including another critical piece, what gpu it has.

  • T60 does not boot with Intel T7600G CPU

    I replaced my Intel Core Duo T2400 with Intel Core 2 Duo T7600G CPU in ThinkPad T60(1951-CTO) laptop. However, laptop does not boot with Intel Core 2 Duo T7600G CPU. It doesn't even complete the POST: https://db.tt/8UL8FlE0 As seen in the video, I plugged in the power adapter at 0:02 and pressed the power button at 0:06. One can hear a little click made by optical device. If I press the power button again at 0:16, this click does not happen. BIOS version is 2.27. I have reset the BIOS settings by disconnecting the CMOS battery, but this didn't help. Once I replace the T7600G with my old T2400 then I'm able to boot the laptop.
    Any ideas what might cause such behavior? Shouldn't there be beep codes in case of CPU issues? What else to try?

    Since you came from a T2400, does your T60 even have a Rev. 3 motherboard? If it does not, then no Core 2 Duo will work, only Core Duo's.
    I don't claim to be the top authority on T60 motherboards, but I believe any will use a Core 2 T7600, 7400, 7200 if the firmware is updated.
    My own experience mirrors what TuuS has stated. I have yet to see a T60/p from any walk of life with a recent BIOS that will bark at a proper Core 2 Duo CPU.

  • 23" Cinema Display (clear frame) does not 'wake up' from Sleep

    A strange thing has been occurring in the last month or so. When my Mac Pro (OS 10.5.8) awakes from 'Sleep' mode the monitor does not come on. When I push the 'On' button in the lower right hand corner of the display frame the light comes on and then goes off when my finger pressure is removed.
    The only 'fix' so far is to shut down the entire system for a minute or more by pressing the Mac Pro 'On/Off' button and then pressing the button to start up. And sometimes the display does not come one even then, necessitating several tries.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a 2.2Ghz Macbook Core 2 Duo system purchased in December 2007. I have 2GB RAM installed.
    My system has developed a weird problem where it won't come out of sleep ... 100% of the time now.
    I've tried resetting PRAM/NVRAM, resetting the power module and even reinstalled Leopard. Nothing has helped. I'm at my wit's end.
    When I put my system into sleep mode, it goes into sleep mode as you would expect. However, when I wake the system (by opening the lid or pressing any key), the system looks as though it's come out of sleep (ie. there's a picture of desktop) and I can move my mouse but I can't click anything. I can't Cmd-Opt-Esc either. I have to perform a hard-reset at that point.
    I have quit all other applications to try to isolate the problem and I'm beginning to think it's either Leopard or my MacBook. Either way, it's annoying as **.
    Has anyone come up with a way to fix this? Doesn't seem like I'm the only one.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Officejet 7612 E All in one printer will not wake up from sleep mode or powersave

    We cannot get a Officejet 7612 to wake up from sleep mode or powersave.  I have tried logging into the web interface but I am only able to delay sleep mode up to 15 minutes.  I need to shut this off or have the issue fixed.  The only way to use the device is to unplug the power cord and plug it back in.  The printer does not even respond to the power button.

    Hello,
    Please try the  below mentioned steps... Firstly print an network configuration page by touching the Setup > wireless Menu > Wireless Settings > Display Network Configuration > Print info [Ok] -type in the printer's ip in address bar of your browser ( Internet explorer or firefox or chrome ), which would display printer inforamtion. click on Network Menu ,
    click Network on Left, of the window.
    click on Network Address (IP), the info will be displayed on the right side. - by default the selection will be on Automatic IP.- click on Manual IP and then type in the following..
       printer's ip address in "Manual IP address"
      subnet mask using the printed report in "Manual Subnet Mask"
      default gateway using printer report in "Manual Default Gateway" Now click Apply. Wait untill the settigns are applied.-After which, power Off the Printer.
    -Restart the PC.
    -Power On the printer.  Hopefully the issue should be resolved.

  • MSI P6N SLI V2 does not boot up from cd/dvd and few other problems

    HI
    I just bought a computer P6N SLI V2 + E6750. It has following problem. It does not boot from cd.
    I have Sata HD. CD/DVD is installed to IDE as a master.
    I have done settings in bios so that First boot is cd/dvd and second is sata HD. Anyhow it still goes to the hd and stars windows.
    I was only able to boot up from cd when I disabled hd from boot sequency. Meaning I left only cd/dvd there.
    Hopefully you pro's can help me.
    Then there is another problem. Windows is telling me that it found new pci device. I do not know what device. I have only Graphig card (geforce 8800 gts) installed into pci-E. Drivers and software are also installed, I assume proberly. How to find out what windows thinks it found.
    Third problem is onboard soundcard. I cannot get any sound out from the machine. I have downloaded driver from realtek, but still no sound.
    Unfortunatelly I do not have original software for motherboard. Only the latest from MSI website.
    Hopefully someone can help me.
    thanks.

    About bootup, i dont know yet.
    To find out what windows found, look in devicemanager.
    To go there go to controlpanel, system then choose devicemanager.
    There you can see what's installed.
    Last, your soundcards needs to be enabled in bios, under integrated peripherals there should be a line with "onboard sound", enable this and sound should work, unless its broken.

  • Screensaver does not clear properly after sleep mode

    henever I start my iMac up from sleep mode the screensaver doesn't clear so that I can enter my password. Instead, wherever my mouse is hovering the screensaver is erased in a sort of block by block mode? Then when I hit enter after typing in my password it goes onto the desktop and everything is fine. Anyone know why??

    Where is the screen saver picture saved? If it's on an external HD that could be the  problem, move it to the internal drive in that case. This is explained in http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57354082-263/q-a-macfixit-answers/?tag=mnco l;txt

  • After installing iCloud mac does not wake up from sleep

    I have all of the necessary components and software for running iCloud however my computer will not wake up from sleep. I only get the gray sceen.  Any ideas?????

    You shouldn't need software (other than Lion).
    I'd reboot it and see if that gets around the issue.  It isn't supposed to do that.
    Press and hold the power button until the Macbook reboots.

  • DELL Inspiron N5110 does not Shut Down and does not wake up from Sleep

    Hello.
    I have Dell Inspiron N5110 which cannot shut down neither in Windows 7 nor in Ubuntu Linux. I specifically booted Ubuntu Live from the CD to eliminate the possibility that  the problem is in the Windows 7. Shutdown in Ubuntu does not work either. This proves that the reason in not a BACKGROUND application in Windows that remains hanging and does not allow the laptop to shut down.
    The laptop cannot wake up after Sleep or Hibernate either.
    I have tried every solution that you advised to all the other people in the forum that have the same issue.
    1. The laptop cannot shut down in Safe Mode either.
    2. It cannot shut down even after Clean Boot Mode - all non-MS services disabled and all Startups disabled.
    3. I tried changing the Advanced Power Options of "Allow Hybrid Sleep" - both ON for "On AC Power" and "Running on battery" - no change.
    4. I tried installing the latest video drivers for Nvidia. This did not help either.
    5. Running only on battery does not change anything - still cannot shutdown.
    6. Running only on AC adapter without battery - still cannot shutdown.
    7. I tried removing the AC adapter and battery and holding the POWER button for 30 seconds to RESET the laptop - did not work.
    ATTENTION: I've been reading your forums all day and saw at least 10-15 reports of the same problem and not a single fixed case.
    8. This is why I have not tried Flashing the BIOS to the latest version - I read other people tried that and it didn't work either.
    9. I loaded BIOS default settings (F9) - still cannot shutdown.
    REMARK: Changing something in the BIOS and trying to Exit once caused the laptop to freeze and I had to Power Off by holding the button for longer.
    10. I ran DELL Diagnostics from Boot menu (F12 at startup) - no errors found.
    11. I could not locate IEEE 1394 Adapter in Device Manager to change its Power Management settings.
    Actually none of the suggestions you may give for changing something in Windows makes sense because I already mentioned that shut down in Ubuntu does not work either.
    The issue seems to be either in the BIOS or a hardware problem. But which component? Is it the CD/DVD drive?
    This is a new laptop.
    Please advice how to proceed. If you know which component fails please tell me.

    Remove the keyboard and palm rest (guide from dell shows you how) and you should see a small coin cell battery. Remove it for at least 10 seconds, then put it back in. Enter BIOS and make sure there isn't anything weird that was changed. It should work properly now. I have had this working in Ubuntu 12.04 for the last few days, with no problems.

  • Computer does not wake up from sleep

    I have my Macbook set up to prompt me for my password when I bring it out of sleep. Lately, however, it has woken to a black screen and does not bring up the prompt box for my password, leaving me unable to bring it out of sleep mode. I can usually fix this by restarting the computer manually, but it's still sort of troubling.
    My computer has also been running warmer lately, even though I haven't been placing as much a load on its memory as usual. That, I haven't been able to solve--even reducing the number of applications keeps it running at a higher temperature than usual. Any suggestions?

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes drop down menu. Click twice on the CPU column header to display in descending order. You are looking for a process consuming a large amount of CPU time. This is generally the sign of a crashed process. Select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar then click on the Force Quit button. This should kill the runaway process.
    Open the Console application and check for any entries that may indicate why the process crashed. Often it's caused by an application that is incompatible or by a corrupted preference or cache file.
