Display Driver Stopped Responding

May 6, 2006

Received a message "Windows Display Driver stopped responding....." after I closed the box, Microsoft asked if I wanted to send an error report, which I did, and immediately responded with a recommend fix/upgrade and the link to the website. My question is this. The graphics driver that it recommended upgrading (Intel 82915G or 82910GL) is not the same Intel graphics chipset that I have installed on the computer (82845G/GL).Which update should I install? The one that Microsoft automatically found and sent to me, or the one that actually matches my machine?

Display Driver Stopped Responding

Jan 16, 2005

My computer is going nuts. All of the sudden it everything on the screen went blank then came up in terrible colors and HUGE. It then proceeds to pop up a message that says:Windows Display Driver Stopped Responding..That's the only part of the message I could write down before it rebooted. When it restarts Installation Wizard starts. It asks if it can install the RAID Controller. I do not install it, I also dont know if i have the cd or not it needs.

Task Manager And End Now Box Stopped Responding

Jun 13, 2006

I upgraded from Windows Me to XP-Home a couple of months ago. I expected several things to be different, but in a GOOD way, ya know? There are a few things that don't work as well and I'm wondering if it's just me, or is it the program? It takes much, much longer to start up and shut down now. I've taken the unnecessary things out of the Start Up in an attempt to speed it up, to no avail.

In Me, when a program would stop responding, I did Ctrl-Alt-Del, and the task manager would pop right up and allow me to end the problematic program in a reasonable length of time. In XP, when I do c-a-d, it takes up to two minutes for the task manager to pop up....then when I click on the bad program line and then click on End Now, the little End Now box pops up, so I click on that and the little box goes away, but the program I'm trying to kill keeps going. I've seen it take up to four minutes to stop a program. There have even been times that the End Now box stopped responding...

Installed OS: Computer Locked Up And Stopped Responding?

Aug 14, 2005

I have a fairly new machine with linux (Slackware 10.0) and XP installed.From time to time when running XP it locks up and stops responding, and I have to power cycle it. This does not happen when running Slackware, and I run the same programs (more or less). I need it to work with XP because some of the programs I run are Windows only. How do you trouble shoot a locking up issue? Because it locks, there are no event log entries, and no indication at all as to what is causing.

System Stopped Responding On Installation Of Service Pack 1

Sep 19, 2005

I haven't installed anything new recently except for windows updates. (College makes us install them.) Yesterday after a reboot, my system started acting strangely for no apparent reason. I have the following problems: System Restore opens to a blank page Help Center doesn't load at all windows won't minimize to the taskbar windows media player gives the error "can't perform operation, low memory" word gives the error "this document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document." Otherwise word functions properly.

copy/paste doesn't work dragging files/folders on the desktop and in windows explorer doesn't work When I try to view 'properties' of errors in the event log, nothing happens. I also noted that I started getting a lot of Event 4609 after these problems sprang up, when I hadn't been getting any previously. I also noted that my running processes are about 6 fewer than they were before I encountered this problem. Additionally, I am unable to start in safe mode. Pressing f8 produces no results. Everything else seems to work fine. So the system works, but is obviously in a crippled state, for no apparent reason. I'd rather not have to reinstall the os because I don't have a cd at the moment.

Installed Daemon Tools - System Slow / Stopped Responding

May 5, 2006

First of all, a SUMMARY: Computer (Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop; Windows XP Home) operating extremely slowly; SERVICES.exe using >99% of CPU (Processor speed c. 1.2GHz) I recently installed DAEMON Tools, the virtual drive programme, and when I first opened it, my laptop slowed to a crawl and stopped responding, meaning I'd to use the 'off' button to switch it off (Ctrl-Alt-Delete didn't work).

Since then, each time I've switched it on, it has been operating as per normal but at a horribly slow speed. I have uninstalled DAEMON, but it seems the problem lies elsewhere; eventually I did get the task manager to come up, and (though it took about 5 minutes) switched to the Processes tab. It turns out that the SERVICES.exe process (run by 'System') is using 99% of my CPU.....

Unable To Find Display Adapter/Display Driver?

Jun 1, 2006

I am experiencing pixelization problems. At first it would only occur at boot up or reboot. Now it is happening all the time which can be help somewhat by refresh, changing the desktop picture, and/or logging off then on I have tried, disabling the 128MB DDR ATI Radeon 9800 Pro using device manager. At first it was OK but at low resolution (VGA I think), but when it asked if I wanted to let windows manage the graphics it got garbled again. I have reset resolutions down to 800 x 600 using the graphics card but that doesn't help.

Mouse Freezes / Lost Internet Connection / Tablet Driver Stopped Functioning?

May 7, 2009

turn on the PC and find my mouse stopped working. I plugged in my pen tablet to use it as a mouse instead, and noticed the tablet driver stopped functioning too (I can still use it as a mouse, but it doesn't work as well without the driver). I then tried to connect to the internet to diagnose the problem, but the net isn't working. I restarted my router and modem, but no progress.

Matrox Display Driver

Jan 24, 2007

Windows Stops Responding and You Receive a "Display Driver Has Stopped Working Normally" Error Message.This is where it started...and I went to the Matrox site trying to get updates etc still having problem. One of my major issues is the fact I don't have/can't afford internet at home and its difficult to bring my pc tower to work. Not sure if it's an update issue, and tried loading updated bios and driver.my computer works for awhile and then either totally locks up to where I have to manually shut off/reboot or it loses display and then jumps to the safe mode display mode and tells me the above message. When rebooting, sometimes it will have to sit for 5-10 minutes before I can get it to turn back on (machine beeps and dies with fans running only).

NVIDIA Graphics Display Driver Missing?

Feb 21, 2006

I'm running Win/XP on a Toshiba Laptop, 40MB. Everything is up to date regarding
MS updates. Yesterday I noticed my screen begin to "unstabilize". The images of letters
and graphics started breaking up and eventually I received a msg stating that the NVIDIA graphics NV4_DISP display driver has stopped working normally.
I went to the NVIDIA site but I was not sure what driver to D/L and if that is even what I should do..
Can someone please advise me. I have to use another computer (my wife's) since mine
only works for about 2-4 minutes before it shuts down (actually it seems to go into
safe mode, but the letters eventually fragment and I have to shut down.).

Display Issues- Graphic Distortion And Cannot Open The Display Settings

May 8, 2008

The monitor started showing graphic distortion. I ordered a new monitor but had the same distortion on it. I updated the ATI drivers but it did not solve the problem. In trying to trouble shoot the problem following directions on the ATI website, I changed all the graphic settings to the lowest and slowest available. This got rid of the distortion but the settings need to go! Now I cannot open the display settings.

Display Issues-all The Text/font Display Settings Seem To Have Changed But Not IE

Apr 3, 2008

All my text/font display settings seem to have changed. I downloaded a freeware program today called avi2dvd, to convert avi video files to iso files for burning to DVD. I tried it out, got frustrated with it, and uninstalled it. After I uninstalled it, I went to check my email. That's when I first noticed that all the text in my yahoo email account had changed - it seemed smaller, like it was at a lower resolution.

I clicked on a few more pages and it was the same for all of them - the text was just not as...smooth. Not as readable. And definitely smaller. It's not just a font size thing, I'm not that much of a newbie, I tried enlarging the font and it's definitely a resolution thing, not just a font or size issue. Then I tried out some other programs, and found out that the problem was system-wide. I use a writing program called Final Draft, and the text in that is also less readable.I found one program that hadn't been affected: IE all my web pages display fine in Explorer.

Display Settings Changed: Wont Access Features In Display Tab?

Apr 18, 2006

my mom installed a virus the other day on accident. (Some program called Dr. Spy Shreddar, or something like that.) I deleted it, but some stuff was weird with the computer. I tried restarting the system to get the old configuration back, but the virus just installed itself again. I removed it again, using instructions from Systematic Antivirus and now it's really gone. Some of the settings were still weird though. So after hours of searching the help topics on Microsoft I managed to fix 1 & 1/2 of the problems I had/have.

For one of the problems they made me go into the registry and set something to the value of 0 in order to get the desktop tab back in the Display Properties box. (You know when you right click on the desktop and select properties.) That's all fine and dandy, but here's the other 1/2 of my problem: I can't access some of the features in the tab. (I have Windows XP Professional, by the way.) I can't click inside of the background list and it's shaded a sort of brownish beige color. I also can't browse and do anything with the position setting. I can however access the customize desktop and color features

Display Issues- The Display Area Has Been Reduced By 40 Percent

Aug 5, 2008

I was installing security cables for the computer stations. when I finished and rebooted the computers(had to disconnect power and other cords to run the security cables) one of them had a display problem.

it seems that the display area has been reduced. the functional area of the screen is maybe 60% of what it should be. in this area it is complete with the full desktop able to be accessed and nothing is missing. but the right 20% of the screen is solid black (cursor stops at the boundary) and the bottom 20% of the screen(that's not black) is displaying a second image of the top 20% of my desktop. (cursor also stops at this boundary.)

Display Issues- Have To Change Display Properties At Every Startup

I reinstalled XP Pro with SP1 on my computer today. Everything is working well except when my desktop loads the actual display is about an inch to the right on the screen. If I go into properties and change/apply the screen resolution from 800 x 600 then back to 1024 x 768 it realigns and all is well. I would just prefer to not have to do that each time I restart windows.
