Hi all, a November update hiccup!
Like most, when I went from 7 to 10 I lost my auto-on number lock - fixed it with a regedit adjustment.
It's gone again since the big November update and I...

Sorry for late reply. I ended up leaving it plugged in all night and it was ready in the morning.
Thanks Train.
My only observation would be that both the desktops completed in a couple of hours...

Urgent help required please.
I've installed the big November update on 2 desktops today with no issues (took a couple of hours but working fine)
My HP work laptop (quite new, maybe 6 months old)...

Apparently only within a month though?
Anyway job done thanks, I'm back to 8.1 (shudder, I hate it) and of course all the power issues have gone including the overnight drain when it's switched...

Wise words indeed - I'm back to 8.1 and everything is back working - a simple task for the first month only but not if you delete the old stuff!
-
August 4th, 2015, 03:10 PM
Yes, but I've switched it off!

OK, tried the new contact support button.
Remote switched on and lots of clicking! Did an SFC but ignored results - attached for a more helpful crowd's opinion?
Said it must be battery and it can't...

I Googled, there are lots of them. Here's one of many - http://www.windowscentral.com/windows-10-power-sleep-fix-released-windows-update

I'd have to say absolutely NO!
The various power issues they issued a patch for during testing are back. A battery that drains overnight when the laptop is powered down is not good - or one where...

Hi Train, I've tried changing what it does but doesn't seem to change the problem.
The most surprising one though (which I maybe didn't explain well early this morning) was closing all programs,...

It's worse than that - he's dead Jim.
Shut down last night - still dead in the morning - it's eating battery while it's off?

Many moons ago, Microsoft Money was quietly killed off by Microsoft but I found an update (I think by a group of enthusiasts - USMoneyBizSunset is the name of the installation program.
It's worked...

Sorry - additional info - my desktop (same upgrade path to 10) is doing the same thing - I left it switched on while I was on the laptop and couldn't get it back on without using the power button too...

Actual install and my laptop is having all sorts of power issues. Drains battery overnight? Shutting the lid freezes it and I have to hold down power button (still lit) to switch off and then switch...

Thanks to all. Eventually with new Bios and new drivers from Acer (although it's only a couple on months old) all is well and printing... now back to the Xp one :)

Tried everything I can think of and a few more. Re-entered all the Canon setting at the printer. Googled and found an Acer issue - delved into Acer settings and discovered Flight mode is ON but the...

just add a TCPIP port pointing to the IP of the printer - tried that on the XP and it printed a page. Switched off the computer and now it's just like the 8.1 - it shows the printer but won't...

If you can remove the Resolved header that would be great. No it was wireless not USB, and it finally worked that night but next day it was a gonner!!
-
November 7th, 2014, 04:01 PM
That's what I'm trying to do but both the 8.1 and now the XP laptops are stuggling - or at least I am - to connect to the network.
If you look at the other thread you'll see what I mean.

As you can see the printer has signed on (I decided to instal your new driver on that new laptop too) but it gets that message at the end of installation?
Maybe I should leave this thread until...

My Xp thread said to install an up to date 8.1 driver so I tried that on the new laptop and got the attached...
but as you can see from the other window, I'm signed in and it can see the printer?
-
November 7th, 2014, 01:15 PM
I get the idea, but suspect it won't be that simple. The other thread I closed (as it printed last night on the 8.1 laptop) is now giving an access denied message... but thats another thread :(
-
November 7th, 2014, 01:10 PM
Spoke too soon... worked fine yesterday.
Home from work today and I'm getting 'Access Denied unable to connect' on the window that pops up when you ask it to print?
When you do the Explorer...

For installing on which machine - new desktop on 8.1 or laptop on Xp?

I've just been lumbered with the position of Treasurer for a local community group and all the accounts etc., are on an old Sony laptop running XP.
Somehow it felt like an old friend when I started...
