display

Hello, I have dual monitors correctly configured; when I boot and log as any user, the main monitor remains the same. However, if then I switch to another user, then switch back to the first user, everything is now switched: My main display gets on the second monitor with taskbars. Is this a...

Hi One thing that's been consistent for a long time is that Nvidia Control Panel, (how I set my color settings for Windows) has always been available from the drop down menu on the desktop. Now it's not only not there, I can't find any link to it in All Apps or anyplace else. I haven't found...

Hello there, I have a newer laptop that is running Windows 10. My desktop is a bit older and I have freshly installed Win 7 after trying on 10. I have several Movies that I have purchased (not rented) from the Win10 store. I would like to think that I can watch these on my big display, surround...

When I first installed windows 10, was just trying to fiddle with it, and you know....tried editing the registry in order to change the selection box colours. By selection box I mean, that box which appears when you pull your mouse towards a particular direction while pressing the left click. I...

For the past few days I've been getting the "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered" error. Screen goes black for a while and when it comes back the error pops up. I fear my graphics card is broken, but I hope not. My laptop has one of those switchable graphics boards. An Intel...

This afternoon my GTX 760 decided to hang itself for whatever reason. I did a bit of trouble shooting - clearing CMOS, un-reinstalling drivers, replacing it with another card (the 680), putting it in another PC, etc. and it doesn't seem to work. Specifically, BIOS won't detect it. Specs: MSI TF...

I have been having this issue for a couple weeks and it's really frustrating. I have an Acer 591G laptop that came with Windows 10 already installed, i.e. I didn't upgrade from a previous version. I can tell you that this issue only started happening a couple weeks ago, after I bought and...

I came home from work and discovered that my computer had been updated to Windows 10. Pretty underhanded move on Microshaft's part, but I thought I'd give it a whirl. Everything seems fine except now when I open Photoshop everything is so tiny I can't really work in the program anymore. Attached...

I think this thread title might describe my problem, but I'm not sure. I have an Acer Aspire One (532h-2588) netbook that I purchased in 2010. I want to update it to Windows 10. The GWX utility (system tray icon) says the netbook is compatible. When I try to update or just download Win 10...

I was having several issues so I did a full reset of Windows 8.1 (that was a nightmare). When I went to update, it offered me Windows 10. I bit the bullet and did it. The exact same thing happened this time as the first time (which is why I reverted back to 8.1). On the desktop, if I place...

Hello again, My Windows 7 Pro machine started up with all the desktop icons (except three 'MS' ones) blacked out (black square where the icon should be). "Rebuild Shell Icon Cache" on right-click menu on desktop does nothing; they're still black. Restarting Windows Explorer doesn't help...

Hello, After updating to window 10 (originally having windows 7) the screen brightness flickers from dim to normal again randomly. I tried fixing it by Display –> Enable adaptive brightness, and change the settings there to Off. which did not change anything. It was suggested updating drivers...

I had a problem that occured to my Windows Yesterday. The deep blacks on the monitor becomes blue, I need some help on this. Link Removed The image above is slight exaggerated to show the deep blacks becoming deep blues, It might not show up on your monitors. But it shows up on mine.

Please forgive me ahead of time, because while I'm okay with computers....I'm not exactly super smart with them, so in some cases I may ask you to explain things like I'm 5 :P Basically, everytime I play Civilization V, my computer crashes with "video_scheduler_internal_error". It also...

I have a problem in that the monitor displays browns instead of greys. If I capture a screen which displays a black to white blend the grey is brown, display a screen capture on another computer it is the correct colour. Monitor and cable is OK as tested on another computer and also tried...

Every now and then I start getting this bar that shows the link for whatever my cursor is hovering over, it's annoying. It doesn't always do it but when it does it doesn't go away for ages. I don't know what causes it but it annoys me, probably seems stupid to you but it annoys me seeing it pop...

I use a laptop and the screen is broke, due to this I use and external monitor but when I startup it doesn't appear on the external monitor. I want to edit some BIOS settings but I can't cause I can't see it. How do I fix this!?

My desktop icon text have suddenly changed to shadow or outline. How can I change it?

I have a relatively simple problem which I just cannot resolve. I have two monitors, one beside the other (in desktop extension, so that I have a wide desktop and can slide stuff seamlessly from one to the other). The first is 1920 x 1200, the other is 1920 x 1080. However, they are physically...
