This is my second monitor,that has done this,i have just had it replaced under warranty,its better but the problem is still there,when i use a HDMI to DVI cable the screen keeps going blank,and when i use VGA cable the screen stays on but is fuzzy.
I have a quad boot system with xp,vista32 and vista 64,all with different drivers for my 2 gtx260's,one of them has no display driver and it is still fuzzy.
I've tried two monitors,3 cables,many graphix drivers,and swapping my gtx260's around but no go.
The only thing i can think of is maybe interferance,but i've owned this system for two years and this is a fairly new problem.
im unable to burn music from my laptop, i have vista basic and until now ive had no problems. I insert a blank cd and it auto loads, then it asks to format before continueing, i click yes, it formats then right at the end it says unable to finish formatting and opens the cd. I then try to burn onto it and the cd stays blank.
I've been trying to burn an audio CD on my computer (i've only had this computer for a few months and this is the first time I've tried burning any kind of disc), and when I put the CD in and hit burn it says that my cd is not blank, I tried a handful of blank cds and it spit them all back out at me saying it's not blank. Just to make sure, I opened my computer and looked at the disc there and it WAS blank, so I don't know what to do.
I need help. When I insert any non blank homemade cd Vista can't read it and wants to format it. Happens with Autoplay or when I use Windows explorer. Does not matter what is on the cd: music, pictures, data files, etc. The cds work fine in any other pc. If I insert a store bought or commercial made cd, no problems. Only have a problem with homemade ones. The drive is a Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-850s.
I've done the following: 1. Uninstalled the driver and reinstalled it. 2. Added "NoCDBurning" to the registry (possible fix found on other forums)
I would like to start doing video, on my computer, and I know nothing about it.Right now, what I am trying is to copy an old (8mm film - no sound) home movie that is on a DVD -- to my hard drive -- then burn it onto a blank DVD so that I can have a 2nd copy. I am asking for step by step help as to how to do this. What I've tried on my own hasn't worked. I have a vista laptop about 6 months old, 2GB ram, Duo core.
Prior to SP1, the RAM usage was always at about 90-95% and the CPU usage seemed to be quite a lot. After SP1, RAM usage seems to be down to about 70% and the CPU usage is a lot less. Before SP1, IE used to take a while to load a new blank tab, and to exit with a number of tabs open. After SP1, new blank tabs load almost instantaneously, and exiting seems to be very much more snappy. Office applications also seem to load much more quickly. The C: drive prior to SP1 had 19.1 GB free out of 37 - after SP1 it now has 22.1 GB free.
i have always got mail fine and just a couple days ago I started getting email with the body of the letter being blank. So i sent myself emails from another email account i setup and sure enough the title of the email shows up, but the body of the letter is always blank.
I can connect my laptop to my computer and get sound and video with absolutely no problem. Where I run into my issue: When it's connected, the TV turn into the monitor and my laptop goes blank. (I believe I selected this option not knowing what the outcome would be when my windows vista laptop was connected to the TV for the very first time). I absolutely dislike that I have to work all my functions through my TV and would like my laptop monitor to display a screen at the same time. Is that possible to undo what I caused?
I read somewhere that if you go to the Power Options, advanced options, processor power management, and change the value of the minimum processor state to 100%."
When I attempt to sign in to Communities I get the following message: Cannot find 'about:blank'. Make sure the path or internet address is correct. Eventually I cancel this message and then find I am connected.
I had 2.5GB of RAM in HP laptop. OS - vista home premium service pack2.
The system works fine.
I upgraded to 4GB RAM(2*2GB). when upgraded to 4GB in bios able to see as ~3.33GB of RAM. I am able to see microsoft progress bar also, but after that the screen is blank and able to hear windows logon sound but no display. The screen is black.
When installed only the new 2GB of RAM the system work fine. So no problem with the new 2GB also. But with 4GB the screen is blank. I have nvidia GeForce 7400 graphics card. Is there any configuration need to be done in vista before installing 4GB of RAM?
Vista Home Premium. I have no third-party CD/DVD recording software on the machine. Every time I go to burn files to a CDR, CDRW, DVD R or DVDRW using the Windows burning function it wants to format the disk. If I cancel the format, then the burn is not proceeded with. XP does not do this. How do I stop this infuriating behaviour?
i was wondering is it possible to change your computer to name to *Blank* because I tried it and it's just not possible. I like it to set it to blank because I like it blank,
Minor issue, but annoying Vista Home Premium, IE7. When I open a new tab I get the Blank Tab page. I have checked the Internet Tools item for Open Home Page instead of a Blank page, but no joy. How can I get a new tab to open to my home page.

I have a Toshiba A100 laptop with vista home premium installed on it. I am trying to burn DVD disks on my laptop, and when i insert a disk it says i don't have a disk in the drive and i should input one. I tried several DVD disks, including a rewritable one. I looked at a similar Toshiba laptop, and it does write DVD disks.
I don't know how long i've had this prob since, i use this option very rarely. Is there a way to fix the DVD drive without replacing it? and keeping reinstalling windows as last option ? (I'm not sure reinstalling will help). The drive does read DVD disks that have something on them. The drive does burn CD type disks
I accidently turned my Dell laptop off while it was performing windows updates. When I restarted the laptop it goes to the login screen and then goes blank (i cant enter the username/password).
I have tried the following: 1. Starting in safe mode (same issue) 2. Using the boot dvd and trying the different options in there (Repair, Restore to safe point, Memory check). 3. Using the boot dvd I have tried several different restore points, including the original store point. 4. I have looked through every forum and every post I can find and cannot find any suggested resolutions.
I have tried to remove 'flash.10.exe' popup during startup by loading 'combofix' thru bleeping.cc but failed due to program interrupted & causing blank background. My question is how to restore the photos back to normal?

HELP TOPIC NOT FOUND: "This Content Under Construction". "We Were Unable To Retrieve The required Topic".

I was having fun with the partitions (I just found the partitioning system in Vista its very neat). Anyways I kinda made a new partition and installed a fresh copy of windows on it, planning to replace my old one. I booted up the new one played around a bit and got off, and booted up the old partition. This is where the problem starts I'm in the old partition and back playing around in the partition stuff again. This time trying to make the new partition bigger, well I shrink the old one but it won't let me expand the old one so there is a blank partition now sitting there. When I click the new one (with vista installed on it) I see make active partition so I click it, it says something like warning this may cause failure if there isn't an bootable sorce on here or something like that so I'm like yea sure. I reboot the computer the bios post then after that is says "ssing" "s ctr alt del".................
I like the Aero glass theme, and I often find myself moving aero windows in front of stuff just to see the blur effect, so I wonder I want just a big Aero window, with nothing in it like just a sheet of glass to move around on my desktop. how hard would that be to code? couldn't be too hard right? any coders want to write this for me? or anyone know of some source code that I could strip to make it just a blank window?
I'm having a BLANK EMAIL problem with my Toshiba Satellite A135-S4417 Laptop with Vista Home 32 bit. I have my PC with XP also connected to my Embarqmail website that receives email just fine, but the laptop doesn't. Sometimes, almost daily, many of my emails download blank, no sender, no subject, nothing in the body of the email, just the time it was downloaded. I know they are supposed to be legitimate emails because I have downloaded them on my PC. I have it set up so the emails stay in the Webmail after they've been downloaded so I can pick them up later on my laptop. I've called Embarq and have searched online with Toshiba and now I'm here, with no success so far. I know a little about computers and can follow directions, but I'm not a whiz.
I have 4 vista 32 bit machines. 1 will update beautifully. When I go to run the Windows update, the other 3 "time out". They sit there with a blank box on the screen for well over 5 minutes, before in sheer frustration, I trash it. I know at least 1 machine is saying it has 350Mb of downloads to do, but when I tell it to start, it does nothing. All are running SP1.
I have scheduled a chkdsk to take place the next time I restart my computer and when I restarted it, the problem started! After the Boot Screen finished booting nothing happens, the screen stays blank. I have left it for hours and still nothing happens. How can I solve this problem? I also wanted to mention that I have changed my boot screen using this tutorial. I didn't really have any problem after following that tutorial but I only wanted to mention that...
