Windows 7 Not Powering

hello
      I have a Hp Pavilion Slimline s5260f desktop Pc.   On several occasions in the past my computer would black out having to force shut down to start it again.  About a month ago I
downloaded the Nvidia drivers for it's video card hoping that would fix the problem and things kind of looked  ok. Two days ago after  switching on the computer the usual blue light flashed   for
a one second and the computer went dead.
      I am not sure why this is happening but I can only guess a power supply issue or perhaps the mother board.  For the life of the computer I am only hoping for a power supply
problem.    I am not a techie and not  understanding why this computer is not turning on.   If someone could give me an opinion of why this computer fails to start after downloading
the Nvidia drivers. Can anyone please be of assistance.    Thank you.

Please try a different wall outlet, and power it on or reset the power cord which is connected to “Power Supply”.
In addition to the blue light flashed for a one second, did you find other exceptions? Since
it is mostly a motherboard hardware or power supply issue, thus I think a better choice for you is contacting the manufacture.

E540: Not powering up

Few months old E540 is not powering up. When I press the power button, the led is lit and the fan turned on but nothing else happens. Nothing on screen and can't even open the DVD tray. Have tried fn+F8, removing battery without luck. Haven't done anything special recently or installed any new software. What next ? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Good day and welcome to the community.

X220i not powering up

Hi all, I have a Thinkpad x220i that is not powering up. The user was claiming poor battery life and not charging prior to this happening. I had taken a look at it and it was charging up fine. A couple of weeks later it will not turn on.
Only thing happening now is the battery light blinks green 5 times with the 4th blink lasting longer than the other then it goes dead. Not powering up, no fans starting, no hard drive spin. Nothing.
Any help would be greately appreciated.
thanks!

It was new. I removed the hard drive to retrieve the users data and when I plugged it back in the laptop was able to reboot. I had tried the removal of memory and drive then reboot and it had not worked. Not sure why it worked the second time after access the hard drive.
Upon reboot it did say that Windows was not properly shut down.

Lenovo notebook E540 Battery drains when it is not powered on

Lenovo Notebook E540 battery drains when it is not powered on. My colleague said that there is a cloud connection being connected during power off and it consumes power. Is that possible? Any resolution?

Hi Kingchechan,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As far as I know only the Windows update will be accessing to the server, or might be any other 3rd party cloud related application, which might be accessing to the cloud server.
Did you check disabling USB always on in BIOS & Wake On Lan from Windows AND BIOS
Check running command powercfg /devicequery wake_armed to see if any device is programmed to power on the laptop might be this is consuming battery power.

HP Pavilion dv7-3080us not powering up. Searching for an HP Repair Centre in Orlando / FL.

Hi lads from HP community.
I have an HP Pavilion dv7-3080us which is not powering up and the problems is most probably at the Video Chipset so I’ll definitely need to have it replaced. Since I’m from Brazil and I’ll be in Orlando on vacation for 10 days, I’d like to know if there would be any HP Repair Centre where I could take my Notebook for been fixed at.
By the way, my Notebook’s configurations is HP Pavilion dv7-3080us, running Windows 7/64 bits, 6 GB RAM and 640 GB Hard Disk and it uses an Integrated Nvidia geforce gt 230m chipset. Computer was bought in May 2010.
Thanks a million for any help.

Hello rmcunha,
You need you system repaired.
There is not a HP repair center that you can take it to, but you can take to one of the big box stores, Best Buy, Office Depot, Staples.
They are authorized repair centers and will be able to repair the laptop for you.
Have a good day.

MXI3 (NI PXI-8330) board not detected. Not powering up, no link light.

MXI3 (NI PXI-8330) board not detected. Not powering up, no link light. Cable looks fine. Any ideas?

PeteMan,
I will need to know in more detail how your system is behaving to give you better tips, so please feel free to send me more information.
For now, let me send you a couple of troubleshooting tips:
Cable connection
Make sure both ends of the copper cable are well connected to the PCI-MXI-3 and the PXI-MXI-3 boards. Be careful when disconnecting the copper connectors. you need to push down the plastic connector so it does not get damaged. Damaged connectors could result in bad MXI-3 links.
If the connector has not been used properly, it could be broken (this rarely happens). Make sure you are not connecting the cable backwards.
Power - Up order.
It seems you are controlling your PXI chassis using a PCI-to-PXI extender (copper cable). Make sure you are powering up the PXI chassis BEFORE powering up the PC.
PXI is built on top of the CompactPCI spec, so it uses the PCI high speed bus. The MXI-3 extender is really a PCI-to-PCI bridge toyour computer, so for your PC, all the slots in the PXI chassis look like more PCI slots. In other words, your computer suddenly has more PCI slots.
It is very important to power up the PXI chassis first before powering up the computer, because at power up the PC enumerates all PCI slots. If the PXI chassis is OFF during boot up, the slots in the PXI chassis will never get enumerated and your PC will never see the board installed in the PXI chassis.
Normal Power up LED sequence
Each MXI-3 board has four LED light on its front panel: two green lights (POWER and LINK) and two orange lights (Tx and Rx). When you power up the PXI chassis you should see one green light and one orange light ON steadily (POWER and ). Then, when you power up the PC, both green lights shoudl be ON steadily and the orange lights shoudl flicker.
If you do not see this behaviour at power up, most probably one of your boards its damage.
If you have another MXI-3 extender kit, try to set up the system mixing the boards from the two kits to try isolate which board is the one that is damaged.
Run the MXI-3 Optimization Software
The MXI-3 Optimizaton Software makes sure that the link between the PC and the PXI chassis has been set up properly. It will show you an error otherwise.
MXI-3 Software Version 1.15 for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME
The PC powers up fine if the PXI chassis is OFF, but if I turn on the PXI chassis first and then try to power up my PC, my PC does not boot
There are several things that could be causing this behaviour:
It could be that your PC has an old BIOS that has issues detecting PCI-to-PCI bridges. You could try upgrading the BIOS.
A part of the hardware could be damaged. If you have a main-stream computer (like a DELL or HP PC, for example), test your MXI-3 extender in it to make sure that the hardware is in good conditions. Main-stream computers tend to use new Motherboards with good BIOS.
There are more tips in the following KnowledgeBase:

HP Z8000 Mouse not powering up

Hello all,
I just received this beautiful little mouse in the mail today and it is not powering on! Please help. I placed the batteries in the mouse, and turned it on, but there is no red light, or sign that it is on at all. I am using the batteries that it came with, so I also tried to replace the batteries with no luck. Could this be a bad unit right out of the box?
Thanks,
Joey

Hi,
If the printer is connected via a power surge protector, try to connect it directly to power outlet to isolate the issue.

Ideatab lynx K3011 not powering up/ won't turn on

The lynx is not powering up even when I connect it using the ac adapter. I do not have the dock. When I connect the AC adapter to the lynx [attatches below the windows button], the light by the power button will turn red. However, when I press the power button, it does not turn on. I tried holding the power button down.

hi wu1chef,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Try charging it for atleast 10 to 15 mins then Press or hold the power button again to turn it on,
I'm Thinking It has to have a back up charge Before it fully turns on.
Best Regards

Thinkpad Edge e430 Not Powering Up.

My laptop thinkpad Edge e430 is not powering up. When I plug in the AC cord the LED indicator does not turn on. I have checked the AC adapter with the multimeter and it gives 20 volt output. So the AC adapter is fine.
The laptop also does not power on with a fully charged batter. I have removed the HDD, Memory, Optical drive and the CMOS battery and then pressed the power button for 30 seconds. The laptop does not wake up.
It is quite weird as the laptop should show some kind of error So i may have an idea what is happening.
Discussing with people on other forums gives me an idea that the power setup of the laptop is faulty. Can some body here guide me to what the problem is and how can i fix it?

Hello everyone,
THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE SPILLING WATER ON MY T400.
I happened to spill water on purpose on my Thinkpad T400.
I am quite young though I just removed the four of the ram screws And also removed a keyboard screw as well.
Then, I opened the lid cover and then I removed the touchpad . Then , I also removed the keyboard . I saw that water had entered the cooling fan and I also found some water near the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor .I also found water near the hard drive and beneath the speaker guard, So I removed the silver panel from the interior of the laptop.I also removed the CD drive. I let it to dry under a FAN ( I did not use a hair dryer because it may damage the components.Then I put everything back it 3 minutes.i turned it on .it did not even power on, instead I heard 1 beep,3 beeps,3 beeps,1 beep. I surfed the internet and found that the error means that RAM is not proper or there is some issue.I again refitted the RAM the way it was before( I changed the arrangement before which caused this error).
Then, to my surprise I saw Thinkpad on the screen and the Windows XP Operating System began to load!
I checked whether I had connected the keyboard and mouse properly.Everything was fine.
I LOVE MY THINKPAD.
You may use this method, BUT please be extremely careful that you do not possess static electricity.

Chris

Dv7-1025nr not powering up

My laptop does not power up at all. I removed the battery, and unplugged the power adapter, held down the power button for 30 seconds to drain any build up. Then I plugged in the power adapter (only the power adapter, NO battery), and pressed the power up button to turn the laptop on, but nothing powers up at all..NO lights or LED's come on. Only light that glows when I plug in the power adapter, is the small light near the power input hole where the adapter connects to the laptop.
I replaced my power adapter with a brand new one (original equipment) and the same thing happens.
What is the next step in troubleshooting this problem?

Hi there @gd2554,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
I understand that your notebook is not powering up at all, and that you have replaced the power adapter with a new one. I am happy to help.
Are you connected directly to a wall outlet or going through a power bar? If possible use a direct power connection.
Next, if you haven't already, try using a different power outlet entirely.
Did you replace the entire power adapter including the power cord (assuming it is one of the adapter with a brick and a removable cord going to the wall outlet? Be sure to use the replacement cord as well, if you haven't already.
Then try going through all of the following:
Computer Does not Start (Windows 7, Vista, XP)
Battery Charging Is Not Indicated in Vista or Charging LED Does Not Turn On
If there is no sign of life then it is likely the issue is on the main board of the notebook itself, in which case, I would recommend, calling our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

Not solved

Mail: Clicking a message in Inbox should open it in a separate window (not just in lower pane). This stopped working after an automatic update of OS(10.6.8). Suggestions?

Before updating software (10.6.8), in Mail, clicking a message in the inbox caused the message to appear in its own separate window-- not just in the pane below the inbox. I'm not sure why this function is no longer available. I guess I could delete Preferences (where?) and see if that does it. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Nick

Uh…no it didn't. Double-clicking a message would open it in a new window. Regardless of whether you have the message pane visible, you still have to double-click the message if you want it to open in it's own message window.
I guess I could delete Preferences (where?) and see if that does it.
No, you can't do that; not unless you want to say bye-bye to all your email. Don't even think about messing around with things unless you know what you're doing, and the consequences.

How can I have multiple WINDOWS (NOT tabs) with INDEPENDENT content?

How can I have multiple '''windows''' (''not ''tabs) with '''independent''' content?
I used to be able to open separate windows with Firefox, and the content could be completely different in each window. No matter what I did in any window, no OTHER window open at the time, nor any of the content therein, was affected. This is no longer the case and it is extremely frustrating for me.
I do ''not ''like tabs and do not use them. I prefer multiple windows plus I am so used to using them, for so many years now! But with v9.0.1 I suddenly can no longer do what I've always done with my browser without this aggravating problem constantly reminding me that I can't have what I want in firefox anymore.
Or can I? Does anyone have a solution I don't realize exists?
Thanks,
Sowelu

AppleScriptObjC can use pretty much everything in the Cocoa API, so yes, it is possible.
Note that a view is not the same as a window, and a window can have multiple views. There are also many ways to implement "tabs"; take a look at some of Apple's applications - they use various mixtures of toolbars, checkboxes, and radio buttons, for example. An application such as this will be a lot more involved than what you have done so far though, using custom classes and subclassing existing ones, so be prepared to do a lot of reading and researching.

View in edit window not getting updatet properly

Hello
I have some problems with the view in the edit window not getting updatet correctly. I noticed this in spectral view. For example, when I zoom in very much, so I only see about 3 seconds of audio and then select one second of audio and do a time stretch, so it will be two seconds of length, the windows does not update properly.
Normally the audio behind the strechted selection should move backwards, but often the strechted portion just sort of overlaps it and it doesn't move. When I zoom out and then back in, it seems to be ok.
I also have had very weird behavior when trying to remove clicks, with the view also getting pretty messed up.
Does anyone have similar problems with the view not getting updated properly?
I am running german windows xp, audition is installed in english. I first thought that installing it in english instead of german solves the problems, but unfortunately it didn't.
Greetings
