Auto Full Screen

Nov 18, 2009

I just got a new laptop which has Windows 7 and I'm a little annoyed because I can't figure things out as well as I could before. I have a nice little habit of using the screen to multitask with about 3 individual windows open but when I try to drag the windows to the corners to maximize space it goes full screen. I don't want it to go full screen! What can I do?

Turn Off For Window Auto-full Screen?

Apr 19, 2012

I have been using windows 7 for about 1 month now, up from XP.There are a few issues I do not like but I am trying to cope with them.I would like to be able to move a window without it automatically resizing to full screen mode.What happens is: if I grab a window (at top bar) with mouse and pull it to top of screen and the mouse touches the upper limit of my screen, the window gets resized to full screen mode. How do I stop this from happening? Can I turn this off somewhere

Full Screen Videos Auto-closing?

Apr 21, 2011

over past week i've just recently installed win 7 x64 ultimate.everything runs fine and smooth except for watching full screen videos, while watching video in full screen after approx 4/5 mins of viewing the screen will auto close or go back to compact view which is extremely irratating, this happens withany type of media player for example , vlc player , wmp 11 , internet explorer 9 Internet videos or any in browser players, so basically anything that plays videos full screen will be reduced back to compact view or boxed screen after 4/5 of it being in full screen mode.1. disabled aero & windows 7 default main theme and using windows classic theme.2. checked to make sure graphics card has latest update from nvidia.3. went through avast anti virus for any apparent interference.4. re-installed graphics driver incase original install was bugged/glitched.5. checked all media programs & players where up to date & compatible with x64.6. searched via google for my issue with which no one has yet found solution.

7. direct x is of latest direct x 11.computer details & things to take into consideration:- nvidia gtx 260 graphics card & latest updated driver.- latest avast anti virus.- 4gb ram ddr3- i7 920 @ 2.65 ghz cpu.- with system being just recently installed there isn't much if any programs installed to interfere with system operation.final note;i had exact same antivirus and graphics card on vista ultimate x32 both with same latest updates and there was no problem running videos in full screen previously beforre upgradi to win 7 x64

Full Screen Videos Crashing To Black Screen And Buzzing

Mar 26, 2011

My computer has a problem with crashing while playing a video in full screen. When it crashes the screen turns black while the speakers give out a buzzing noise. Everything is unresposive the only solution is to turn it off with the power button. It happens in any full screen video online or offline and even visualizations from windows media player and iTunes, but only in full screen. I don't think it's overheating either because sometimes it takes 30 mins to crash and other times it will crash immediately when put in full screen. *I've tried setting it back to factory settings thus reinstalling windows. *All the directx features are working with no reported problem there.* I don't think it's a memory issue in the computer, as my specs are:

Windows 7 64-bit
Processor: intel core i5 3.20 GHz
Ram: 8 GB
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 220
Graphics card memory: 0.5 GB
Any other ideas?

Dual Screen, Unable To Full Screen On Second Monitor?

Feb 26, 2012

I have 2 monitors set up,

Primary: Samsung Syncmaster 19 Inch widesreen 1400 * 900
Secondary: LG E2541 25 Inch Widescreen 1980 * 1080
OS: Windows 7 64bit
VideoCard: Nvidia Geforce 560 Ti

I use my primary mostly for browsing, msn, music players, Ventrilo etc etc,I want to use my secondary Monitor for gaming Watching Videos.However, when i want to use something Full screen on my secondary monitor it goes full screen on the primary monitor.
I cant also run it in windowed mode and stretch it out to full screen, it does not allow me to do that, it goes back to the size of my primary Monitor.

Ps.I want this since i play mostly with fullscreen borderless or in windowed mode so i can still browse the internet or adjust music/ventrillo settings. I dont want to have an Taskbar below the game, so thats why i need it on the Second Monitor.

Horizontal Screen Tearing When Viewing Anything Full Screen

Sep 2, 2012

no matter what i'm viewing, be it a video on Internet/dailymotion/vimeo/wherever or anything on vlc, the second i go full screen i notice horizontal screen tearing across the entire screen. i managed to lessen it to an extent on vlc by switching to directx output, but it still pops up on Internet videos etc.have also just started to notice it on non full screen videos.if it makes a difference it's around 2/3 of the way up the screen on online vids and 90% of the way up on vlc.i know this problem is going to be hard to pinpoint since it could be any number of things, but i have the feeling this is all because i have a setting too high/low somewhere.

maybe this isn't a problem with windows, but a problem with the browser i am using? i'm using the latest version of firefox.

Blue Screen Auto Reboot

Dec 16, 2011

I have an HP Pavilion g series laptop (running Windows 7) that is in a continuous restarting loop. This happened after the computer auto updated (windows update). I do not know what was updated, but now every time the laptop starts up it seems to be in a continuous rebooting loop after the windows logo then a blue flash. I am unable to go into safe mode or any other mode as I keep getting redirected to a page that gives me two options:Launch Startup Repair or Start Windows Normally. Startup repair gives me the same results as trying to run in safe mode.

Turn Off Auto-screen Resolution?

Jul 25, 2010

I have a Home theater PC on my home theater system connected via HDMI to an AMP then to a tv all with HDMI. Some times when I turn everything on the computer is in a 1024 x 768. And it doesn't go back until something triggers a new resolution, like exiting or starting Windows Media center and it goes back to 1920x1080. I am guessing when I start up the AMP it can't identify the device so i goes to a default resolution.

Disable Auto-Resize Of Window At Top Of Screen?

Jun 8, 2009

If a window is moved above the screen so that parts are out of view, it is automatically resized to fit in view. Is there a way to disable this?

In Ease of Access Center, I checked "Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of screen," but that only stops it from maximizing.

Always On Top For Full Screen Mode

Jun 23, 2012

Lots of little programs out there that will keep a selected windown on top of all other open windows but they only work in windowed mode. Not a single one I've tried works over a full screen app.I'm running Flight Simulator X on two monitors. To play multiplayer, I need a small utility that I need to see almost all the time. I could run in windowed mode, but that causes other visual problems and makes my second monitor almost useless.

Full Screen Magnifier For Use

Aug 25, 2010

I'm smoke testing Windows 7 for my company and we've had user request to use the magnifier functionality. He is using an HP Elitebook 4880 laptop and leveraging the Architecture Aero theme, however I cannot get the magnifier to allow me use any view option other than "Docked". This system is completely compatible with Windows 7, but nothing I've done to date will allow me to select Full Screen (appears grayed out).
