I had a Windows 7 compurer next to my tv to serve as a media center, worked fine but pc was very old so I went out and got a faster new one, so I could also watch bluray movies and other large files.
the new pc works fine also but I'm having a lot of troube with the screen resolution I've got a fullHD 42" Philips lcd tv, and im using the HDMI input on the tv, the ATI card is set to 1920x1080 but the screen is displaying an inch of black all around the desktop..., im using the ati catalist driver in this case.
Windows 7 initially made the card work with wddm 1.0 or something, that picture was perfect! but then the audio did not go through the HDMI cable so i had to install CCC.
so, I either get good picture and no sound or I get an inch of darknes and HDMI sound
I't took me a full day of messing around with drivers and reinstalling Windows 7 twice before I came here, please anyone? what would be the answer to making this work?
I have an HP Monitor 2310m model and HP Pavilion p6310f desktop computer with NVIDIA GeForce 9100 integrated graphics. I had to reinstall windows and afterwards could not play some of my games to fill monitor screen completely. (are set to play full screen)Before the reinstall, I could adjust the resolution to 1440x900 to get them to fill the screen but that won't work now. I got a few to fill it with 1600x1200 but only a few. I've read that other people have this problem but no solutions have worked. Tried changing resolution, setting full screen mode, hitting ALT & ENTER keys.
I've recently installed a Win 7 Professional 64bit and I seem to have a problem. When I install a game, the RAM fills up the whole 4GB and it doesn't refresh or empty during the install or after. What could be the problem.
This morning i noticed that my computer is running slow so I opened Task Manager and found out that cached memory is taking up 5 gbs of my ram soon programs start shutting down and i have to reboot. Cached memory progressively increases until it fills up all my ram. Safe mode works just fine though.
I have read many of your threads & would say that I am a "Fan". Although this is probably not the place to post my question, If anyone could direct me in the right directionIn one of my Start Menu libraries, I added the file that contained my music. The menu looked very dull, then the idea came to me that I should make Icon's out of the album artwork. After completing a few, I noticed some images were not filling up the whole area of which it should have. Where as others did. I checked to see if it was the pixel size, no result.
This is just a question as I am not too computer minded - running Windows 7 for last year and now I have a small problem. There is this Find bar that comes up and interrupts me when I am typing or even when I am trying to fill in forms online. How to get rid of it have tried so many antivirus scans and it is not picking anything up!
My hard drive fills up to within 5 GB of capacity without me taking any action. I run disk check and everything is fine until the next time I turn on the computer and the disk is full again. I ran a couple of malware tools and they found nothing. When I look through the directories I cannot find any huge files. I have the hidden and system files set as viewable. The HD is 300GB and has about 35 GB of real files.
I just finished a new build and I installed a 40GB SSD thinking it would be enough for just the Windows 7 OS and some drivers. Well, it so happens that the 40GB's rapidly decreased to roughly 2GB's of space... To be honest, I'm not sure how those 40 GB's were used up so fast. I have a couple of programs installed on it such as:
-AVG Anti Virus -NVIDIA Drivers -Motherboard Drivers -Google Chrome
I'm not sure what can bee deleted but I want to delete some of the Windows Service Files such as Windows Mail and etc. but every time i go to delete the folders, it says can't delete because i need permission from TrustedInstaller? I don't know if it was a good idea to buy the 40GB SSD or if I should have gotten something like 80GB. I still have time to return it but I'm not sure if that is the right thing to do because this problem can be fixed or if I should just go bigger.
In the last week or so, I have to reboot my pc almost every day because the RAM usage gets up to 93% and I can't do anything, even launch taskmanager. When I've caught it before it was too full, I saw that almost nothing was listed as using RAM (system was at like 80MB). Essentially, RAM is "in use", but the use is not explained by taskmgr or perfmon.I'm prepared to learn that it's a BIOS or mem controller issue, but it never happened in several years of XP and Vista on the same rig. Also I see I'm not the only one with the same issue on Win 7 64bit: Win 7 64bit Ram Filling Up Problem?
I've just built a new computer with Windows 7 and a gigabyte brand radeon HD4890 and have been having the same issue as some other users with regard to the over/underscan.
I managed to correct the inch or so of unfilled space when displaying the desktop by using the under/overscan utility in CCC (thanks to info on this forum ^_^) but found that the problem still exists when I ran my first full-screen applications.
I installed, updated, and ran Spore: Galactic Adventures to take a look at how my system was going to handle everything, but found that the dreaded inch was back. The really odd thing was that when I switched Spore to windowed mode, the inch had gone and I could maximise to full-screen. Of course, the window header and taskbar kind of detract from the game, but this isn't necessarily an issue for Spore (which can hardly be described as immersive).
I am, however, concerned that this issue may pop up in other games where the window header and taskbar will detract from the game (if it operates well in windowed mode at all).
I plan on investigating further later today, possibly in the direction of motherboard and chipset drivers, but also testing with other games.
When the password window appears on startup, it immediately fills with dots. I can remove them by backspacing then deleting. How do I stop it from happening?
I have a folder called nCoreTMP located at C:UsersMyNAMEAppDataLocalTemp that gets FILLED with files called nCoreNDB.1 through 1003 and is 185MB HUGE each.
Anyone know what the heck this it? I've done disk cleanup and now my C drive is LOW on space again. Temporary files in the Disk Cleanup shows that there are 238 GB that I can gain by deleting.
I have a Toshiba L755 Laptop with Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel. I hooked up the laptop via HDMI cable to a TV monitor. It worked great, but afterwards the screen will not fill up. I can't adjust the overscan and am stuck.
I've got a problem with my C: drive (which has Windows on it) slowly filling up. It started last night when all of sudden 3gb just disappeared from the HDD and by the end of the night I only had like 100kb left. I thought at first that there were some temp or junk files on there but after a few runs of disk cleanup and the app CleanUp! It was still going. That convinced me that there was some trojan or virus messing around with my drive information (system volume information). I did a scan with Malware, AVG, Kaspersky and Spybot and even though I found a few nasties getting rid of them didn't work. I'm at a loss of how to fix this, I didn't copy or install anything on C: and neither did I put a page file on it. And I know that having low space on your system drive can cause slowdowns and crashes.
i downloaded Puran Free Defrag to maintain my computer, the defrag process has no problems, the optimizing process also has no problems. but, when it goes to the filling gaps process, it crashes halfway..
Ever since I put Windows 7 Ultimate on (about 6 hours ago) I get a black screen after boot screen, no login appears.
Black Screen:
* No Mouse
* No Keyboard
* No Screen (Duh) Its not a "Black Screen" more of a blank screen
I have attempted many fixes:
* Update Drivers for mother board
* Update Drivers For GFX card
* Batch Files in Start up (two different ones based on display)
* Updated Bios
* Remvoing all other hard drives
Things that Have Worked:
* Runing in Safe Mode
* Disabling GFX card
* Remove GFX card Drivers
This is how i came to the conclusion that my black screen is caused by my GFX card. But i dont want to have Windows 7 installed with out it (what would be the point).
I have a Gigabyte P8000 Hybrid TV Tuner, and there is a problem. When I play in Analogue TV the screen is showing only black but plays sound. The digital TV shows ok the images and the video.I tried most everything i could do, I dont think is a driver problem, because all the other functions are playing normal.
I bought a new graphics card thinking my old ati radeon 4670 was the problem ( now have geforce GTs 450) and then bought a new 2tb Seagate drive thinking I would just try a new install of windows 7 In case it was a driver/virus etc. issue( didn't want to lose my old partition in case it wasn't )It's only on normal startup, safe mode doesn't give me any problems so I'm at a loss here, I think it may be either a psu or maybe bad memory.
This Dell Vostro is 2 years old, it has Windows 7 installed. When the internal wireless card is turned on, it connects alright for about 5 minutes and then the computer will BSOD or Black Screen then restart. Ethernet works fine.It has a strange behavior history.Before reformat, I ran Malwarebytes which detected malware in Adobe CS5, after clearing that up it stopped BSODing for a day of constant use. Then the wireless card stopped working at all. Windows could not even detect it for a few days. After the Windows reformat and reinstall it started working for half a day. Had the latest Dell driver installed for it.Today it BSOD's and Black screens after a few minutes. We have to turn off the radio toggle to keep it from crashing Windows.There was liquid spill about a month and a half ago. It was about an 1/4 cup of wine, attended to promptly. Within seconds of the spill it was shut down and put in front of a dehumidifier for a few days and turned upside down. It is possible it corrupted the card or card slot, but we have no other issues with the computer. I don't suspect this but it is worth mentioning. Our next step is to purchase a new card, examine for corrosion on the slot or card, but.......I have to say I still suspect a software conflict.
What has already been done:
Reformated and reinstalled Win 7 Uninstalled and reinstalled the card drivers Updated all service packs and win updates.
I got a BSOD during a credit card purchase and it was right after I finished entering all the information and then clicked checkout or whatever. As soon as the page loaded saying "Processing order...", about 3 seconds later it just crashed.
I have begun to experience an issue with a Nividia GeForce 7300 Video graphics card. It happens when I am playing solitare or writing an email, which is the screen freezes and I have to turn off the computer to regain the monitor function or the computer. The message that I captured in relationship to the issue is WD-20110802-1520.dmp syndata.xml WERInternalMetadata.xml - Video Hardware Error.I have also seen a pop-up that says the NVIDIA card has stopped and successfully recovered.
the screen going on the fritz only when playing a video. i have not tried playing a video on vlc or wmp to test this but it seems almost every time a video pops up on a website, or if i go to Internet, my screen goes crazy.per the other thread, i swept my old drivers and re-installed the newest (which was 12.9 beta) and everything is ok, cept these videos. to fix it, i have once or twice gotten lucky and been able to hit escape and it goes back to normal. otherwise, i have to hit the power button and make it go into sleep/lock mode. i have a second monitor hooked up and it doesn't do what monitor one does, which is very odd.card is xfx radeon r7770 ultra overclocked black edition (factory overclocked)p.s. tried to use the uploader for pic and it wasn't working for me at all. tried to use imgur also, said it was down for maint.
I got a new video card at work to install and nothing will show up when I plug it in. I can go through the computers VGA and it works fine, but when I go to the video card only a black screen. Any help? Can't download drivers either, only black screen upon boot.
I've recently upgraded to windows 7 x86, and it works great. The only problem I have is that my ati mobility radeon 3650 graphics card doesn't seem to want to work.
I've tried reinstalling the drivers several times using several different versions of the driver (win7beta, vista32, mobilitymodded, unmobilitymodded).
Whenever I try starting up with the card enabled, the screen goes blank. After reinstalling the driver, everything but the wallpaper goes away. Can anyone help?
I recently turned on my laptop for it to constantly arrive to a black screen just before I select the user login. I read some instructions on a different forum stating that I need to log in to the computer via the safe mode and un install my display driver which is Intel(R) HD Graphics, I did this which enabled me to get back onto my original login but at a price.My driver now says that it's VGA, My screen resolution has changed, every app I use crashes constantly as well as any videos/films I play they crash, skip every minute or so.Yet if I update the driver I end up back at square one, the black screen.My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5742 with Windows 7.I've also tried the windows recovery which crashes.
I installed my graphics card into my optiplex 755 and it gives me a picture but it keeps sending me to a setup repair screen and says something is wrong with the hardware and when I try to just use the original vga no screen will show.
ive recently been having this problem for the last few days i thought i fixed it but it started happening again. not sure whats wrongalso this happen after i installed black ops on my computer off of steam.
we have an nvidia card, it was failing for a few days, i.e. we d have to reboot it in safe, uninstall and reinstall a driver,a nd it would work. now we can get into the bios but if it comes up in anything other than safe mode its a black screen with a cursor, no sound. monitor is not split to 1 and 2.
