| 618783 | 2007-12-07 09:54:00 | I came across a machine which when booted gave a message that power saving options are enabled and monitor will shut down in a few seconds. After that it keeps going back to the dignostic routines and doesn't bring the windows logon screen. What could be the problem | kritan (13110) | ||
| 618784 | 2007-12-07 16:20:00 | Whats the brand/model of the system/computer? And what version of Windows is on it? I would try going into the BIOS. Look for the power or power savings features option. It'll be an option here somewhere, that'll have to be disabled. Then save the settings in the BIOS, once u find it and disable it. |

| 618785 | 2007-12-09 00:51:00 | It is a clone computer. I already tried it in the BIOS but still doesn't work. Will try again may be. Is the monitor power saving options different from the system...... Whats the brand/model of the system/computer? And what version of Windows is on it? I would try going into the BIOS.

| 618787 | 2007-12-09 02:28:00 | can you get to safe mode (F8) before it powers off the monitor? | bevy121 (117) | ||
| 618788 | 2007-12-09 09:27:00 | yes I can go to safe mode... | kritan (13110) | ||
| 618789 | 2007-12-09 11:36:00 | Try starting in safe mode and go to Control Panel (start menu) There you will see Power Options In the "Power Schemes" tab under "settings for xxx power scheme" there is "Turn off Monitor" with a drop down menu Set this to "Never" In the "APM" tab uncheck "Enable Advanced Power Management" click Apply and OK then try booting again |

| 618790 | 2007-12-10 01:43:00 | oh dear hard luck..... when I boot in safe mode, it takes me to the logon screen and doesn't log me in stating that the domain is not available. I tried both in Safe Mode and with networking as well. SO until I can log in I can't do anything | kritan (13110) | ||
| 618791 | 2007-12-10 01:49:00 | Domain? But you use this at home right?? Its not a work computer?? Or do you use it at work? If its at home, right mouse on my computer / properties. Click on the bottom option under computer name, change it from member of domain to workgroup. That might let you get into safe mode. And if this was a work computer (and someone did change the mobo), it may have policies in place. |
