How to Fix Sleep Mode Problems in a Laptop?

Posted on March 7, 2012 by Linda

Sleep mode refers to a low power mode for electronic devices such as computers, televisions, and remote controlled devices. These modes save significant electrical consumption compared to leaving a device fully on and idle, but allow the user to avoid having to reset programming codes or wait for a machine to reboot. Many devices signify this power mode by a pulsing LED power light.

The sleep mode on computers turns off all the nonessential hardware and applications installed on a system, reducing the amount of electricity the computer uses. However, when using a laptop in conjunction with a USB mouse, you may find the computer does not emerge from sleep mode when using the mouse. Fixing this issue is fairly easy.

Instructions:

1, Click the “Start” button on the desktop, then type “device” into the “Start Search” box.

2, Select “Device Manager” and choose “Continue” under the User Account Control information.

3, Click on the “Mice and other pointing devices” option, then right-click the USB mouse and select “Properties.”

4, Choose “Power Management” and click the “Allow this device to wake the computer” check-box option. Approve the changes by selecting “OK.” This accepts the changes, and now the mouse can wake the laptop the next time it enters sleep mode.

Please follow this instruction to fix it:

A certificate error message in Internet Explorer is designed to pop up when the browser detects a website’s security certificate contains invalid information. This is done to protect Web surfers from malicious websites that can download viruses or fake websites set up to gather personal information. But sometimes this security feature goes awry and begins to block trusted sites the user knows are safe.Difficulty:Moderate

First, please check your computer date settings is correct!

Method A:

* 1 Close Internet Explorer, then click the “Start” button. Type “regedit” in the search box if you are running Vista or in the run box if you are running older versions of Windows. Hit “Enter.”

* 2 Highlight “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl” by clicking on it.

* 3 Highlight “New” in the edit menu and click “Key.”

* 4 Type “FEATURE_ERROR_PAGE_BYPASS_ZONE_CHECK_FOR_HTTPS_KB954312″ in the new key box and hit “Enter.”

* 5Highlight “New” in the edit menu and choose “DWORD Value.”

* 6Type “iexplore.exe” in the value box and hit “Enter.”

* 7Choose “Modify” in the edit menu and enter “1″ in the modification area. Click “OK.”

* 8Close the registry editor and open Internet Explorer to see if the certificate error problem is fixed.

Other Tips:

1. Computer Date and Time

One reason a security certificate error might pop-up is because the computer date or time might be incorrect. An adjustment to the system time of the computer will remedy that type of certificate error.

2 Expired Certificate

Sometimes the security certificate is actually expired for the website. If this is a website that you frequently visit and the error is new for this site, you might have to wait until the website renews its certificate. Websites have to renew their security certificate every so often.

3 Malicious Site

If this is a new site that you have never visited before, the site might be malicious. It is recommended that you not continue to browse a site without a valid security certificate, and defiantly don’t input any login credentials.

4. Browser:

If you still have problem, please try another well know browser: Firefox
