    Power save problem


    Hello

    I run seven home on a laptop toshiba a100-590

    i select the power plan 'balanced' with 'put computer to sleep' = never when plugged & on battery.

    however, the laptop goes to standby after x time when plugged.
    when not plugged, the indicator says 'no battery detected'

    what can I do ?
    thanks

    Does the battery really work? Try updating the drivers for your battery. Did you check out the Hibernate option? Maybe the laptop is not going into sleep, but hibernation.
