I've just installed my Win 7 yesterday for the first time and immediatly grabbed 'Dark Agility' Theme. Althought the theme looks very fine to me, i've found several problems such as black typing fields and black fonts on a dark grey background. Needless to say that it is really annoying and impossible to work with. How to change those fields and fonts into white/bright grey?
I suddenly started seeing this ugly font (see images below) on many webpages.I think this issue began right around the time I installed some other fonts, but I am not sure. Initially, I figured it was a Chrome thing but have since confirmed the issue extends to IE and Firefox, leading me to believe this is a Windows issue. By the time I tried to revert the changes via System Restore, it was too late (restore only went back a few days; maybe I need to adjust settings there?).I tried to reset the default font but Windows does not seem to respond to that. When I click "Restore to default font settings" the button greys out but nothing else happens. No dialog box and no change in the issue.
I deleted a few fonts from my font folder the other day and it seems that a few OS fonts were deleted in the process. Usually Ive got a message saying something along the lines of "this is a OS font" or "in use".Question:I noticed that my default calculator font is missing and was curious if anyone knows what font the calculator uses. I got a substituted font from the deleted one, but it looks terrible.If nobody knows the above.I went into a font deletion frenzy because I had some non-OS fonts that made my font list bulky and it took a while to scroll to the more used fonts.So I deleted some to combat this. Photoshop loads a lot faster as well due to less fonts(my little takeaway tip from all this)

If nobody knows the above. Then would anyone happen to know how to change the calculator font?

My system was initially set up with a misspelling for the User name and Computer name as Nichol or NICHOL-PC. Consequently, several fields in the HomeGroup Provider registry entry are wrong. RegEdit locks these field for update. Does anyone have a methodology/process for changing the names.
Using Windows 7 I suddenly can't type in fields of secure documents (opened with https).I have tried documents such as for paying bills and making reports, using IE, Firefox, and Chrome.Applies to data entry fields or radio buttons.Data fields accept the click to select the field, but do not respond to data typed on the keyboard.i have searched the web for "can't type in fields of secure documents".I get lots of hits, but none are appropriate and few have solutions anyway.
Suddenly I am unable to type into form fields.I have to trick it by writing the text in an e-mail, copying that, then right-click and paste into the form field - even to login here I had to do that - nothing happens when I try to type into the field.Environment: Windows 7 Home PremiumAsus PC
i have a fairly large sound system (15'' sub woofer included ) that i use for my computer. the sub has a huge magnet, a good 15-25 cm wide 5-8 cm depth. the sub is about a metre and a half away from the PC, so will the magnetic field affect it?
Im really in need of some help from some Access experts! Im a newbie to Access, but I got myself busy with quite a big project... Im trying to map out the product supply to shops in the whole country. Ive come quite far for a starter, but I keep having 3 questions, it would be great if you could help me with this! I have, amongst other tables, two tables called Stock_counted and Reported_quantity.
Ms Fax does not permit updating of fields in cover pages. Info like senders name,recipient name, etc. cannot be entered. The controls/fields can be selected, but, entering or updating info does not work.I managed to copy a cover page created under Ms Fax under Xp and CAN update fields.
I'm on my work VPN and trying to remote into my computer at work using Windows Remote desktop. I enter my computer name and user name in the Remote Desktop Connection window. I am then prompted to enter my password. I enter my password and that dialog goes away, but then nothing happens. All that is left is the first Remote Desktop Connection dialog with some fields grayed out. Even if I enter in the wrong password, I don't get an error message.
Is there a way to rename or create new sorting option with custom text ?there is a lot of categories, however i need to have my own custom labeled field then in the Detail view panel, by default, in the small size, there are these fields ready to edit:
- tags - categories - content status
the easiest way would be if i could rename those to my needs so it stays easily editable for the user?
I enabled PC Tablet Support in the windows features section of windows 7, but i still can't get windows to pop up that on screen keyboard icon that usually displays next to any type of data input fields.My windows is NOT installed on a tablet pc, but i recently connected a touch screen to my desktop and am hoping to get the same sort of functionality like my tablet edition of xp had.
I have windows 7 + an I7 processor. When I turned my computer on today,all the colors,especially blue,orange,and pink are incredibly bright. I've tried adjusting them and nothing works.
I know how to personalize my pc with different background colors. However, I would like to know how to use an image stored on my pc instead of a background color. I currently have a slideshow running with my favorite pics and the background color frames those pics, but I would like another image for the background instead of a color.
so i've had this problem before but this time i want to handle it myself, so i have these wierd dots on the screen, Where it used to be white its not pink dots, and where it used to be black, it's green.i can still use my computer, but it's really annoying.i tryed to use Acer eRecovery but that didnt work.
my GPU is Nvidia Point Of View GTS 450 2GB DDR3. Yesterday I tried to overclock with MSI Afterburner by increasing the values by 60-70 and than I reverted back to original. Today when I started the PC, everything went fine but when I installed The Sims 3 and started it, the PC froze and there were some mixed colors (more like medium length lines, red, purple, green, blue, pink etc. ) on the upper left and bottom right corner of the screen. Than I restarted and it was fine.. Is there something that I should be worried about. The card is bought last year in June/July and it still has warranty. Also I wanted to ask another question, is it better to buy GTX 460 or GTX 560 or just to upgrade this card to SLI
I have a problem with installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro on a Shuttle XPC SN27P2 and was wondering if anyone else had seen the same thing?
Problem:
When I boot from the Windows 7 DVD the installation screen comes up in 8 colours only and the screen res looks like 640x480 on a screen that normally runs at 1600 x 1024 (this is what the original Windows XP installation ran).
Windows XP ran fine and did not have any of these problems (with the installer).
I am reluctant to proceed with the installer as I would prefer to iron out this problem before pushing on with the complete install.
I have a HP Pavilion dm1 laptop. When I switch to battery I lose colors. Light greys turn to white etc. I think this is a power saving measure but it is really annoying. This does not occur when I am using my power adapter.
Does anyone know what this is and where I can disable it?
While using Windows 7, my screen just turns opaque, and i have to reset my pc.
This happened :
1. Twice in Fifa 10 (exactly at kickoff, green screen)
2. Using uTorrent (White Screen)
3. As soon as i move mouse after boot up ( White)
The main problem is that my monitor goes into power-saving mode upon reset after this screen, and it does not get out of it. I have to wait a few hours everytime this happens to use my pc again. Its not my monitor, cause Ubuntu and Hackintosh work just fine. Today i got a similar black screen with XP. I have also restore factory settings in BIOS. Pls Help.
EDIT : Happened in Hackintosh as well, maybe ill restore BIOS to version that came with my PC.
EDIT : Found out a possible solution thanks to google (Damn! Why does BING even try?), Some RAM settings set to AUTO in BIOS. Will just have to give it the original frequency!
How do i fix a laptop LCD screen with distorted colors like the screen has a mix of red dots on desktop, it happens randomly last time now its persistent.
After clearing my computer of spyware yesterday, all of my file folders are a pale yellow color? Why is this? Is there any way to change them back to their normal yellow shade? Also, I can only set my backgroung as solid colors, but not images.
I did a bit of searching, but I seem to be the only person I can find with this issue (most people seem to have the opposite issue).
I want to connect to my servers using Windows 7 Remote Desktop, but I would really like to do so in MORE than 256 colors.
Everyone I see online is asking how to get it to only display in 256 colors. Well mine will only display in 256 mode and I want it in full color if possible.
I checked the display setting in Remote Desktop and it's set to 32bit, but it never actually does show that way.
Edit: I should mention these servers are mostly running Windows Server 2003 if that makes a difference.
i have a fairly new laptop with windows 7 (i can't remember which version), and i was wondering how to change the colors, if that makes sense. The laptop came installed with some default color scheme which i liked, but when i tried to watch a movie with Windows Media center it changed it to "windows 7 basic". it does this every time i use the program, but until now it has all ways automatically changed back
Today I remembered the name of a game I played when I was quite young, one of the first games I played. It is called the neverhood, and was around at the sort of time when windows 95 was the latest OS. I managed to find a copy today and was all excited to play this game, but the colours are really strange, certain shades are fluorescent pink, green, yellow, etc while other lighter shades are the colour they are meant to be. I can only assume this is because I am using the wrong colour depth or something, the problems were lessened when I set my colour depth to 16bit, but still not solved.
i wanted to know if it was possible to change the color of the task bar, window, text color, and the inside color of each window? I want Green text with black background with "classic theme" Kind of like some of the default "high contrast themes"
Whenever I try to change my desktop background image to "Desktop Harmony", the default Windows 7 background, no error message comes up but it stays the solid color. But when I change solid color to solid color, the result is different. The background changes.
BTW, I recently reinstalled Windows, I think I fixed my driver problem because I restored Windows.old, but I can't seem to get rid of all the errors such as this one.
edit: I tried to delete TranscodedWallpaper.jpg from %USERPROFILE%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsThemes
but, Windows keeps making the jpg file AGAIN and AGAIN...
This has happened mabe 2-3 times. Boot up computer, get the windows password field, put in pw, next screen is a cross-hatch (vertical and horizontal lines) of various colors. Cursor doesn't work, nothing works, manually shut the computer down. On rebooting, everything is OK??? Nothing appears to be wrong with my monitor (Samsung 193P), or any other functions of computer.
