LCD Screens, Background Black

Mar 22, 2009

Never could get my LCD screens properly cleaned. All 'special' products for cleaning leave them with stripes. Being a real man, i tried using WD40. First little corner on oldest monitor, ended up cleaning my flatscreen TV with it. It renders the screens as new, i tried putting the screen on background black and it was spotless. completely OT, bathe an old speaker overnite in WD40 makes any old scratchy speaker come back to life

Usually when the screen fades to black when the "Allow/Deny" Box pops up, I get about 8 seconds of delay of a black screen between the actual screen and the button. It gets really annoying, it also happens during log in. Does anyone know whats going on?

Slow, Black Screens, Not Responding

May 2, 2010

Recently my computer has been more frequently running slower and generally not working as well as it has been. Its less than a year old and running vista home premium 64bit. It happens if i have a lot of programs running eg: using dreamweaver, photoshop as well as having an internet browser open etc. It use to run fine with these programs running at the same time, occasionally now they wont respond and pressing ctrl alt del opens a black screen and after a while a message comes up saying logon failed security dialog box. It also occured earlier just browsing the internet with a slow loading page which i closed and tryed top open the network centre. It decided not to respond and ctrl alt del resulted in the same as above. Also occasionally when starting up after i log in there is a black screen, after managing to open the task manager processes slowly start to begin and the main desktop appears as usual.

Hard Drive Failure: Black Screens Have Occurred On Bootup?

Mar 24, 2010

Think my HD may be failing. First, a few black screens have occurred on bootup. After normal shut down this A.M., it booted into the BIOS screen, after noisy boot. I simultaneously pressed Ctrl + Alt + Del expecting to get Task Manager. Got Advanced Options Menu. Pressed enter, booted to Windows normally. And just now, got louder than usual "whirring" noise on bootup, which went on to boot into Windows normally.

Question is: What would my options be if the Drive totally fails? I've got Personal Data saved. And all I have is Recovery Disks for this laptop. Would those be able to be installed on a new Drive if needed. I'm under the impression that I have a Smart Drive. Wouldn't that warn me if the Drive was failing? No warnings yet! And what type of Warning should I look for? So, how should I prepare for HD failure?

Black Dots On Desktop Background

Jun 5, 2009

I recently downloaded a wallpaper changer program called Winvista. As soon as I started to play with the different wallpapers on my desktop, I couldn't help but notice that it had completely cocked up! It seems rather odd, behind the display picture there are a series of grid formad dots, very small and regemented. These move around when I open windows over them or when I select desktop icons. I had a go at changing my resolution, display settings, themes, effects and tried using different background pictures. I've restarted a few times and have selected to use different solid colours, but these dots don't budge.

Black Dots On Desktop Background?

Mar 4, 2010

The thread I'm referring to is called "Black Dots On Desktop Background" and it was posted by charleyvonne. I quote it below. I recently downloaded a wallpaper changer program called Winvista. As soon as I started to play with the different wallpapers on my desktop, I couldn't help but notice that it had completely cocked up! It seems rather odd, behind the display picture there are a series of grid formad dots, very small and regemented. These move around when I open windows over them or when I select desktop icons. I had a go at changing my resolution, display settings, themes, effects and tried using different background pictures. I've restarted a few times and have selected to use different solid colours, but these dots don't budge. The program isn't running now, but I still have the dots! I could try to put up a screen cap of my desktop if it helps?

I downloaded Winvista, a wallpaper changer program, just as this member did, and then black dots appeared on the background colour of my desktop. It is very annoying, and I didn't experience the problem until I downloaded Winvista. I have deleted the Winvista program, since it didn't really work for me anyway, and also I've tried system restore- with no change.I am VERY anxious to correct this issue. Can someone give me some advice? I've checked the advice given on the outdated thread- none of it seemed to offer the solution I need. Also, in the outdated thread charleyvonne didn't seem to find a solution either.

A Lot Of Blue Screens . Appear

Nov 7, 2009

Recently I encountered more and more blue screens,

I can say that I can know when is going to appear a blue screen, first of all
Internet disconnects and software not responding and then the blue screen appears and I need to do reset.

Numerous Blue Screens

Aug 11, 2009

I have received the bluescreen at least 20 times. Although I don't record the details each time, they appear to be different each time. I thought it was just a faulty laptop so I returned it and was given a new one and I am still getting the bluescreen. It usually appears after I install new software (installed printer) however I can receive upon startup as well...............

Install Blue Screens

Dec 30, 2006

I have a problem installing Vista (any build) using my ATI X1600 Pro AGP 512MB video card. I have no problem until I come to during the "Completing installation" phase,then the system gets the blue screen of death and shuts down less than a minute or so before Vista is installed. If I boot the system again I get the same error. If I boot in Safe Mode I get the message: "Installation can not be completed in safe mode"

Nvidia Install But Blue Screens

Jun 25, 2008

-I have done 4 clean installs (format and re-install) -Using Vista-64 Home basic on a XFX nVidia 780i mobo with 8gb of OCZ paired ram (4x2gb), a intel Q6600 quad core, and 2x MSI 8800GTS in SLI... -What would be really nice is if someone could tell me how to sign up for OEM support as an individual, as I build systems for fun, not for a company. I don't feel like paying a support tech nearly 60$ for a piece of software that is supposed to come with free support.

Vista Screens And Cannot Access The Bottom

Jun 28, 2008

I can't see all the text in certain Vista screens and cannot access the bottom of the screen (i.e. sounds, DPI settings). I couldn't install the Vista SP1 because I cannot access the area to check off "I Accept". These screens cannot be made larger and have no sidebar sliders. In DPI Scaling box (which also does not show all text), the "Default scale 96DPI" choice has a strikeout line through it and it is grayed out. The only choice is "Larger scale 120DPI". My monitor is about 4 years old, 17" LCD Flat, eTronic brand 1710. Monitor settings in Hardware is PNP Generic.

Blue Screens Of Death /restart

May 5, 2009

Now I've had this for, i kid you not, less than a day, and blue screens of death/restarts keep occuring. I have norton 360 running and updated, updated my graphics driver for my 9400, updated everything I could through windows update, and still this problem presists. Sometimes, the blue screen will just briefly flash, then restart and it gives me the option of choosing if i want to go into safe mode or not.Also, i changed some setting on my internet connection, through cmd.exe, i changed everything this video told me to When i attempted to go back and reverse it, it said that elevation was required and the command failed on ipv4.

The blue screens have varied in what they say, they always dump my physical memory so i never get a chance to fully read them. However, they have said all of the following. MEMORY MANAGEMENT Something about a bad page file And a few more i cant remember Right now, my pc runs fine for a while, but most of the time when i boot it up, it says rundll32 has encountered a problem and must close. Sometimes this forces a blue screen to appear sometimes it doesn't. I also thought it may have been heat, but i was runnining my computer fine for 15 hours straight or so when i got it and it was ok, but then showed a blue screen of death for memory management. Currently, it runs in this strange windows 98 style, the icons, toolbar, start menu, everything is windows 98 looking. Also, it displays a rundll32 error and somestimes a windows process error everytime i start up. I ran a memory diagnostic and it said there were no problems.

How To Divide Screen Into Multiple Screens / Desktops?

Dec 9, 2008

using the short-cut target line in XP I could set games to run in window or at a different resolution. How do I do this in Vista? More Specifically I want to run Atlantica Online in smaller res than 1024x768 so I can leave I running in the background but still keep an eye on it while i surf the net (a small resolution like 640x480 would be ideal). I tried editing the target line with no success. Any ideas?

If the above is impossible are there any third party programs that would allow me to resize the window how I want? Or allow me to divide my screen into multiple screens/desktops?

Gateway FX4710: Blue Screens Galore

May 15, 2010

I have been having tons of blue screens. Every time I contact Gateway about it I get the same answer to take the comp back to factory default. Its solving nothing. Honestly I am about the dropkick the computer out the window. About 4 Days ago I took it to factory standards and did the full windows update, there are no more updates. Ran fine for 1 day then the next 3 I have got 15 blue screens. The blue screens I have been getting are usually: -

Blue Screens: Windows Home Premium 64bit

Dec 31, 2008

I was having constant blue screens in my new Gateway comp. Its a laptop, M Series, 15.4 inch screen. It brought along the Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit OS with SP1. Dual processors, 4GB of memory. After countless of blue screens, they seemed to come and go, I figured the comp was just being dumb. I unistalled all the things I had placed on it [which really wasn't much] so the laptop was running with all the things it brought from scratch only. Blue screens disappeared for a day or so, and then came again, though with less frequency. I was using it today, left it for a few minutes, and when I returned it had gone to the usual stand by mode.

Moved the cursor so it would restore, but after twenty minutes of a blank black screen I decided to turn it off and on again. And that's when it started to refuse to boot. Whenever it tries the bar appears for a minute or so, and afterwards it's replaced by the BSOD. To my disdain they always disappear quickly, so the most I can read on it is something about a driver malfunction, or whatever, and the error code 0x0000007E. So yeah, if anyone has a clue as to why it won't boot, and how to fix it, I'd be grateful. Of course, I could just re-format it -- but I want to leave that option as a last case scenario.

Vast Amount Of Blue Screens: Error Codes 0x000000be....

Mar 1, 2009

I know theres probably a million threads about blue screens, but I think my problem is different. (Probably heard that before too.) I bought my computer in November, and since then I've had a bunch of blue screens, most giving different codes. I ran Memtest86 and it found nothing (I ran it once for 6 hours then another for 9). Heres some of my error codes, just recently:

0x000000be
0x000000d1
0x0000004e
0x0000001e
0x000000c5
0x0000003b

I don't know what most of them mean, I've read that ram is the main problem for some of these, so I don't know what to think. My computer is a HP Pavilion Desktop, running Vista Home Premium x64, I have an AMD Tricore, and 4 GBs of ram.

2 Screen Set Up: Connect My Pc To My Tv Using Hdmi And Also Keep My Desktop Monitor Using Vga But Be Able To View Both Screens Identically

Mar 14, 2009

i want to connect my pc to my tv using hdmi and also keep my desktop monitor using vga but be able to view both screens identically. my mobo is a gigabyte ga-73pvm-s2h and im using the onboard nvidia geforce7100 /nforce 630i graphics. at the moment the only way i can connect tv and monitor is by using the nvidia control panel but i cant set diferent resolutions for each screen and run them both identically so whichever screen i set as the main is fine but when i look at the second screen res is wrong.. is there a way to have both screens running simutaneously with different resolutions(my monitor is 15" and tv 32")or a setting in windows to allow this rather than having to change the main screen all the time?

More Background Services Than XP

Dec 14, 2008

I've noticed that Vista has a lot more background services running than XP does and one of my pet peeves is to see a crap load of services running and knowing I don't need all of them but not knowing which one's I don't need.

Could anyone tell me if there are some common services that I can stop from loading up that will not affect Vista?

Background To Stop Or End

Mar 23, 2008

Has anybody here used the program EndItAll 2 with Vista? I was thinking about installing it to end background tasks & such in order to play my games. Since Vista is such a resource hog, thought this might help with the performance of my game. I don't know which programs or anything that is running in the background to stop or end so thought this program "End It All" might help.

Programs Run In Background

Mar 18, 2009

I have a problem with my machine running slower whenever I'm on the Web. Recently I discovered that it was because of one or perhaps 2 programs running in the background even after I close the programs. Last month, after performing a system cleanup with my antivirus and antispyware programs, I noticed that the cleanup process was running unusually slow. At some point, I activated RealPlayer and it wouldn't activate. I double-clicked the icon more than once, and it didn't run.

Out of curiosity, I decided to look at my Task Manager, and in the list of programs running under the 'Processes' tab, I noticed 'realplay.exe'. My RealPlayer program was still running in the background, even though I closed the program, and it was chewing up my resources and slowing down my machine. I stopped the process by hitting the 'End Process' button, and noticed that my machine was back up to normal speed. Once in a blue moon, I get the same problem with Mozilla Firefox, and I have to go into my Task Manager to stop that process to be able to run it again.

So far, RealPlayer and Firefox are the only 2 programs that run in the background even after I close them. How to I fix this problem so that I don't have to keep going into my Task Manager to shut down both programs if they continue to run in the background?
