View 3 Replies View RelatedMy PC's display just went off while I was surfing the net...first I thought it was the screen, so I plugged in another screen, windows booted and same happened after a few minutes after startup...screen just goes off...Now to my knowledge it can be 2 things:
1. graphics card
2. RAM. Notes: I do not get any beep errors...
I would like to know, what are the best software available for testing RAM issues? Also, I am using AMI BIOS(american megatrends v7.4, 2009), how do I do the startup memory diagnostics? I know there is a shortcut for it...
Also, I'm typing on the PC now that is giving me issues, don't know how long until display goes again...
For a while (ever since I updated my BIOS, I think) my computer have been taking around 10 minutes to shut down and after the 10 minutes it shows a blue screen for a second and then it restarts/shutdown. I recorded the computer screen while it was shutting down and was able to take a screenshot of the blue screen. This is what it says: Code: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen. Restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.
If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as catching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components , restart your computer, press F8 to select Advances Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

*** STOP: 0x0000009F (0x00000003, 0x84F79838, 0x82B6AAE0, 0x853F1270)
I'm not sure when this has been going on since I usually shut my computer off and go to bed without looking twice at the screen but upon shutting off my computer yesterday, this blue screen appeared:

View 6 Replies View RelatedI keep getting a message on a bluescreen, often when the cpu comes out of sleep mode, that it is shutting down to avoid damage or something. I also often have trouble getting ctrl alt del to work. Recently, we removed several viruses, and hijackers from the computer, that made it so I couldn't even google search, and its only been doing it since then. As I write, malwarebytes said it was removing threats. I have scoured everywhere I could think of and removed almost all unnecessary programs, files and downloads. Could there stll be a virus? Could a previous virus have corrupted the comp irreversibly?

Some background; I am a quadriplegic and use a combination of a mouth operated mouse, voice recognition and the on-screen keyboard to control the PC. I also have a high level of PC knowledge (I used to be an IT consultant) but I have been unable to resolve the following issue.
Sometimes when I hover over the onscreen keyboard to type in an application (like notepad) it will automatically switch to the last application I was typing in (like firefox or Internet Explorer). It does not happen all the time and it does not happen if I use the applications in quick succession (i.e. directly one after the other).
An example, say I have been using firefox and the on-screen keyboard to fill out an online form then I might go move some files around from one hard drive to another. Then I might start Word and dictate a letter using voice recognition (without touching the on-screen keyboard). Then I might need to go back to Windows Explorer to rename a file, so I get file ready to be renamed go to type the name in using the on-screen keyboard and as soon as the cursor goes over the On-screen keyboard it will switch to firefox and make it the active window.
I have tried many times to replicate this to find a distinctive pattern but I have been unsuccessful and it seems to be very much random and quite annoying.
I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this issue and if so have they been able to resolve it.
Is there a way to create a shortcut for the On-Screen Keyboard that can be attached to the Bookmark area in IE and Firefox?

how can i choose a user in the win 7 welcome screen using only the keyboard (without using the mouse)?
I'm hoping there is some sort of key combination that may be used to choose the user so that i won't have to use the mouse in order to login.
I would prefer not having to change the standard welcome screen to the domain login screen in which i believe it is possible. I'm using Win 7 professional.

I have started using an ASUS slate and find the Windows on-screen keyboard almost impossible to use because of the way the keys flash after you touch them (or even hover over them) - the fade delay is way too long resulting in a mass of flashing keys when typing with any sort of speed. I would have expected this to be a setting under the keyboard options or general personalization but no amount of digging or Google searching has turned anything up for me. Does anyone know how I can turn this off or at least reduce the fade delay time?
