Powering on with lid closed
Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 07:45:08 +0100 From: "Jim Hudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Powering on with lid closed Hi all, I've got my Lib70 sat in the EPR with keyboard, mouse and monitor attached and was wondering if the machine can be powered on without the lid open. I guess I need to disable the hibernation (in the BIOS?) but since that doesn't work for me it's no problem anyway. I'd rather have the lid closed when working like this to reduce the risk of the screen or keyboard getting damaged. Thanks, Jim Hudd. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

When I close the lid the machine still beeps and hibernates. While I'm on hibernating I have a very peculiar problem. When I boot the machine up and then close the lid the machine hibernates as expected. Once started again I try and hibernate and the machine reboots but beeps as though it's hibernating. After a few seconds (about the time hibernate normally takes) the machine has done the Win98 MODE codepage stuff and then shuts off! Any suggestions?

Jim, I'm not that informed about your problem, and this suggestion may be way off base. But would it help to turn off the "auto off" feature for disply and HDD in the "Power Save Properties" in "Control Panel", or maybe try some other settings there?

Then hit the hairy light bulb, select the normal operation mode (probably external power, full power mode) and click details.Tab to 'System' tab, and ,ake sure that the 'switch to resume mode when display is closed' is *unchecked*. Should work quite happily with the display closed (it will still turn off the lamp so the display will last longer). You would expect both these to be the same thing, but they don't seem to be :) Neil >From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Libretto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: Libretto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: Powering on with lid closed >Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 09:40:25 -0700 > >Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 16:33:11 + >From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: Powering on with lid closed > >>From: "Jim Hudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> >> Once started again I try and hibernate >>and the machine reboots but beeps as though it's hibernating.
