Problems with my management engine

By Ylian Saint-hilaire (Intel) (246 posts) on December 27, 2009 at 11:25 am

I am on vacation with both my Netbook and my bigger HP 6910p laptop what has Intel AMT 2.5. I have been playing games with my bigger HP laptop and yesterday morning I turned the computer on and it was really slow booting up. The management engine boot screen takes over a minute to go thru. Pressing CTRL-P will cause the MEBx to appear after a few minutes. It’s clean my management engine is in trouble. I have not used Intel AMT in weeks. Once the computer boots up, it’s really slow but otherwise works. I tried disabling Intel AMT in MEBx and resetting Intel AMT from the BIOS but both have no effect. It’s too bad, I am on vacation and my main dev laptop is shot. I am heading back home on AMTRAK tonight and once home, I will try un-screwing and opening the laptop and remove the backup battery. Hopefully removing the small backup battery will reset the management engine.

Does anyone have suggestions to reset the management engine or have an idea what is going on?

Update: The problem seems to be intermittent. This morning I played SIMS3 full speed on the train for a few hours before the computer started to slow down again.

Thanks,
Ylian
