Bejeweled 3 is incompatible with Windows 10. It works fine in Windows 7, and work fine in Windows 10 if installed on Windows 7 before upgrading. Noticed that Netflix doesn't work with Edge, either: I get error H7361-1253-80070005. Netflix works fine in Chrome with Windows 10. I can't edit...

hi all, I happen to be physically and visually challenged, and interfacing with my computer is difficult, but I got to a point where I manage. This specific thread will be related to the visually challenge side. It may sound overly dramatic, but in order for my eyes not to explode in sharp pain...

Hi The window control icons (Minimize, Expand and Close) in the upper right are so fine that if they appear on any kind of a dark background color they are almost invisible, (remember I have 76 year old eyes). Windows should be smart enough to switch the color of the icons to reverse, (white...

Hello people of this forum! I'm new, so please pardon if I do something stupid. Today I gave my desktop a makeover. New wallpaper and a new tab colour (black). This all looks very cool, but I can hardly read the tab title when the colour is black. Easy solution you'd say: Just change the...

Hello all, Is there a way to make the slider button (I dont know what the real name is) on the right side darker? Much darker. It's almost the same as the field it slides in and is very hard to see. Is Win8 like this? Thanks for any help.

Since I have had Win 7, 64-bit installed. The colors of visited and unvisited links in both IE 10 and Firefox 17.0.8 ESR have been annoyingly similar to my aging eyes. Unvisited is a muted blue and visited is a muted purple only slightly different from the blue. In XP my links were an obvious...

The display on my Fujitsu Lifebook A530 is so bright it's actually painful to watch. Especially at night. I have tried the F6-F9 keys (marked ▼ ▲ ▼ ▲) that I think are supposed to adjust brightness/contrast but no go. Any ideas as to what to do? Yeah, shades - but that somehow seems so low-tech.

Hello everyone, I had win7 and I would right click on the desktop hit Personalize, in Personalize i would chose Windows Classic in Basic and High Contrast Themes but i just upgraded to win8 and used the win7 shell thing my brother told me about mostly everything looks like 7 but I have 8 cool...

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me with a display problem (or at least tell me what might be going on). I just bought a Acer S231HL LCD monitor for my desktop (Gateway SX2850-01). When attached with the VGA cable, the colors look fine. The blacks are deep and the colors bright...

Could someone please help me to sort out problems with windows media player.12/wmv9 (?uninstal/reinstal) on my brand new computer. The colours are garish, contrast is over-the-top and obviously wrong. This happens with *any program playing wmv files *any video file (wmv,avi,mpg) played by wmp...

Hey, Im having a problem with my theme settings, all of the aero temes seem to be blocked and i can only select themes from the basic and high contrast secetion (excluding the windows 7 basic). I can't find any problems any where, everything is up to date and there are no viruses etc. I am...

I've read how the brightness of LCD displays, directly in the eyes, contributes to insomnia. So I want to switch to a dark aero theme. I'm disappointed that the only available dark themes are "high contrast." I can't find any aero themes that are dark, but also have a background slide-show...

Just for informational purposes I have been having a problem finding something that I could monitor my computer with. You know cpu, memory, hard drives and such. I am in kinda of a special group. I have extreme troubles reading widgets and gadgets. Including having troubles with white on...

Hi, I have new Sony CW laptop running Windows 7 (64-bit) with an Nvidia GeForce GT 230m graphics card. The tiny problem I have is that I can't adjust the video settings (colour/contrast/brightness etc.) in Windows Media Player 12 as I am used to being able to do in previous versions. I use...

I just installed Windows 7 Pro on an HP Pavillion with an HP w2007 20" monitor. I had no color issues initially and everything worked fine. The first time I ran Windows Update, it included an optional update called "HP- Display - HP w2007 Wide LCD Monitor". That update "failed" to install and...

Surprisingly not about security. See, after spending time trying to personalize things since I am used to doing so on Linux, I discovered a huge flaw in how Windows does personalization. It's completely limited. Sure, people unfamiliar with computers take Linux as too confusing because you can...

Installed Windows 7 last week and realized that unless the laptop is plugged in, I cannot read the display. It looks almost like it's brightness/contrast gets put on the highest level and I cannot make anything out. Sometimes it will fade back to correct if I don't have any programs running...
