    Power cable disconnect and a failure to start


    I replaced my battery about 4-5 months back and since then, I can't resume my windows by pressing the power button from Hibernate if the power cable isn't connected even though the battery is at 100% and the lid is closed. If I leave the lid open, then the power button works even though the power cable isn't connected. Currently on the latest Windows 11 although I saw the behavior in Windows 10 as wellAny insights would be appreciated. Thanks

    :)

  2. Display Turn Off in Power Options Causing USB Disconnection

    Hello everyone, I'm encountering a peculiar issue related to the Power Options settings on my Windows machine (Version 22H2). Whenever Windows automatically turns off my display, it seems to inadvertently cause the devices connected to my USB hub to disconnect. Here's a more detailed description of the problem:
    1. Display Turn Off Issue: After Windows turns off the display, my USB-connected devices disconnect.
    2. Wake-Up Login Requirement: When I wake up the monitor with a mouse movement, I'm prompted to log back into Windows, as if the system had entered seep mode or logged off.
    Steps I've Taken So Far:
    • Set Power Options to never enter sleep mode.
    • Disabled hibernation and USB selective suspend.
    • Restored default power settings using "powercfg -restoredefaultschemes".
    • Imported power options from "Default_Power_Plans.zip" found on this forum.
    • Analyzed settings with PowerSettingExplorer, but nothing unusual was noted.
    • Checked the event log and Sleep Study report ("pwrcfg -systemsleepdiagnostics") for any signs of the machine being put to sleep, but found none.
    Interestingly, this problem does not occur when I manually turn off the monitor. It only happens when Windows does it automatically. Also, this issue is not isolated to one machine; it's happening on several, which leads me to believe it's not a hardware issue. I'm looking for any suggestions on how to further diagnose and resolve this issue. Your input would be greatly appreciated!

    Random Internet Disconnect, whats up ?

    don't get me wrong here.
    I mean there are a few steps that I know of which no one has suggested.

    The reason why I ask ADSL or Cable is because they work differently (obviously).
    Since its Cable I wont bother with ADSL for now.

    You 100% correct about the MAC address because cable authentic via MAC address.
    But there are heaps of simple things he can do before he contacts his ISP which may just get him to waste his time, such as checking the lights on the modem which usually are from top down

    Power
    Receive
    Send
    Online
    PC Link
    Activity
    Standby

    If the power light doesn't go solid green it indicates a power problem.
    check power cables.

    If receive and send light aren't flashing signal problem.
    check coaxial cable connection (also its a good idea to disconnect it and reconnect it to reset the signal)

    If receive is on and send is flashing.
    You can adjust the signal frequency inside the interface of the modem.

    I used to work in a ISP and majority of the time just disconnecting the Coaxial cable and reconnecting it solves the problem. Also adjusting the has helped in situations.
     
  4. Power cable disconnect and a failure to start

    WOL won't works without disconnecting cable power

    Hi everyone,

    I have an issue that i can't find the solution, when I make a shutdown in order to made a WOL, it won't works if i don't disconnect the cable power before.

    When I disconnect the power cable and reconnect it then WOL works perfectly.

    I compared the bios of another client that WOL works and everything is equal. Same S.O. ... NIC properties the same, same network adapter....

    Any idea?

    Thank you!
