IE 9 - Strange Black And Blue Block Showing Up In Scrollbar
Jul 11, 2012
I am using Internet Explorer 9 and today I noticed something weird in the horizontal scroll bar. A black and blue little block in the right corner (see picture). If I grab the window and drag it to left and right it disappears and the scrollbar shows instead (depending on the size of the window).
My computer has these phases when it crashes about 5-10 times a day with the same way. The monitor turns black and GPU coolergoes to 100%. Only thing I can do is hard reset the computer. I finally managed to get a bluescreen about it.
Every time I click on a gray scrollbar and drag to scroll, Windows 7 freezes. I notice this most in explorer (first happened in control panel), and it seemed to be just a problem with any scrollbar in explorer, but then it happened in OpenOffice too.
In Firefox however, there doesn't seem to be a problem. I have just installed Windows 7 RC (32-bit) on my brand new computer, so surely not a virus/malware issue. All drivers up to date.
I'm able to reset or hard shutdown. Cannot Ctrl+Alt+Del.
On my Mac there is a setting to change the scroll bar so it jumps to the spot I click instead of moving page down or up. How can I do this in Windows 7?
I am new to this but hopefully somebody out there can offer some pearls of wisdom? My Packard Bell laptop (I think it is called an "Easy note TJ71) model will not work. When I turn on the power a black screen telling me to "insert my Windows installation disc" choose my language and then click "repair your computer" appears.I copied recovery discs and driver discs etc when I bought it (about a year ago) but no "Windows installation disc".The system running on it is the Windows 7 one.Is there anything to be done (other than trying to contact Windows for a copy of the install disc).
I have a home built Rig. Running Windows 7 RC 7100. Very happy with it. I just had a DVI/HDMI adapter, 15ft HDMI 1.3 cable and a 20ft coax cable delivered. MONOprice.com for the win on those(less than $20 delivered in less than a week)
Anywayz, I set up the cables and all to my Toshiba 37" LCD 37HL67 and the coax to my reciever. audio is working. And even the dual monitor set-up thru Windows 7 works great. However, I am having a "desktop fitting the FULL screen" problem.
It is showing black barz top, bottom, left, and right. Not fitting the complete screen. My TV res is 1366x768. which i have win 7 set to. it seems to be the fullest on the entire screen. But not completely. It does not matter if i make it the main mont or not. Wont change. My GPU is a ASUS 4830 from Newegg(another winner ).
I do have the latest drivers and even tried to play with the CCC and started seeing problems becasue i was doing a trial and error sesh and i stopped quickly. I am not PC inept but I am not the most savy creature either. This one is beyond me at this point.
Went to use my laptop this morning (windows, 15 inch screen) and all I could get on the screen was several large black circles with the screen being a very light blue, like maybe sky blue. I can see the screen flickering, but nothing appears in the screen whatsoever.
Once in a while my system. 64bit-Home-Premium, shows a black screen after the password has been entered to log on. I have not found any way out, except hard reboot.
windows 7 home premium 32 bit control panel --->all control panel items ---> personal;ization --->window colour and appearance----> click on item and a list of them appears. i click on scrollbar and it allows me to adjust scrollbar size but the colours box is greyed out, i cant change it. how can i change it? scrollbar is far too light and am finding myself having to look for it. have tried to adjust colours elsewhere in my personalizeds theme but it makes colours elsewhere unsatisfactory.
My Compaq laptop no longer has color graphics. When I go to a website it just shows black letters...I just bought a new battery from HP and can't figure out what is wrong..
my screen since watching a movie will not go back to the way it use to be cant see start menu when on the bottom and scroll bars are missing on sides and bottom?
After updating my system from Windows Vista - 64 bit to Windows 7 Professional - 64 bit my function buttons along with my touchpad scrollbar and volume touchpad have stopped working.
Lately my PC has been weird, whenever i launch any game my computer just turns off but in a verry unusual way, The Screen goes black, the pc fans stop spinning, nothing is working, but my power button is still bright blue (showing that the pc is still on but its not), i press the button, nothing happens and if i un-plug the power cable, the power button stays on for about 10 seconds, then when i plug the power cable back in the pc turns on just normally like every time, but i still get crash if i launch a game, this is my pc Configuration: [code] This has been happening for a couple months now and its getting verry annoying, i'm thinking of buying a gaming PC but that costs 3,000 and i need a good working PC while i save up money.I have reinstalled Windows a few weeks after the problem accoured, it did not fix it. I also updated all my drivers, still not working...
Running a Dell Inspiron Zino HD. Constantly crashes, get either a blue screen, black screen or stripes. Usually says something about a crash dump but goes blank before I can read.
i want colored heat-sinks to go with my computers theme (black and orange with blue highlights here and there) im looking into an ASRock extreme 4 990fx, but do not like the light blue and dark blue and gold, so to even it up a bit, i want to replace the north bridge and south bridges (if there is a heat sink on it) heatsinks. im thinking i want orange to contrast with the blue and dark brown/black.
i have a Toshiba laptop running win 7 I'm on a network where the printer is plugged into a desktop running win XP via a USB cable. If I print using the network printer from the laptop i get blue and pink lines where black should be.I have not tried to print a picture so i don't know the results of that.
how can i change my windows 7 blue theme to the previous black and grey theme which it had when i purchased my laptop... and cab i apply any other theme on windows 7 basic?

i have done a memtest and it was successful without fail also this is the 3rd time I have done a clean install before was cause of ntoskrnl.exe so did a clean install now its cause of win32k.sys?
I'm using I have a DELL4500S desktop, on startup it will not go to the login screen, the screen is just black with the cursor showing. I've tried restarting the computer, unplugging everything and restarting it. Nothing is working. When it first starts a pop up shows and says "This Application has failed to start because SAMLIB.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem."I'm not sure what it's talking about and what to re install and I can't reinstall whatever it is because I can't get to the start menu.
i have a windows 7x64.Yesterday while watching videos my screen started jumping and crashed to a blue screen with(QPR is not less or equal i think) and after that i restarted and it came with other errors.Now when i switch on the laptop it only shows black screen with no option to do anything.
I have a toolbar on my taskbar titled "Programs". It has about eight folders in it. I made another toolbar, and placed it directly adjacent to the Programs toolbar, to obscure the eight folders and force it to be a dropdown menu.Trouble is, as soon as I lock my taskbar, right next to the arrow that displays the eight items of my Programs toolbar in menu-form, one of the eight items is showing up as an icon, as if the other toolbar isn't close enough to the Programs toolbar in order to completely obscure the eight items.
I have a different setup in that I have two Windows 7 Pro machines in a workgroup. One machine RDP�s into the other. I need to block IE access on both PC�s still allowing RDP access. I know I can rename the executable and I think there may be a way to block port 80 in the windows firewall but is there anything else that I can do?
