by default, windows xp

I would like to find how you can reset your windows xp settings by default because my monitor won't work on the sound settings on

If nothing appears on the screen when you start Windows XP, you can press the F8 key just before Windows begins to start to display the menu in advance Startup Options then select Enable VGA Mode option.  This will allow you to start on a display mode of 640 x 480 with the drivers and then you will be able to return the display to a compatible resolution or change the display drivers.

    A user of my application complains that the default context window makes no sense for him. I agree that it does not sese to a user of an application. Is there a way to change this?

    I opened the window context when the application opens.

    Default window is below.

    Well, what I ended up doing was creating a case of event that will open the context menu of the first (and only the first) times a user will fly over a control on the façade - instead of open the context menu on the application startup. Given that the mouse is on a default context window control is avoided. Still a bit klunky in code, but it works. I'm not real happy with it, so if anyone has a more elegant solution.

    I guess that the Zuhl3156 has been asked is because by default Windows 7 Professional comes with the games are not installed. However, their installation is easy to achieve.

  • Windows XP crashes intermittently when stopping. Stuck on the screen with the default windows background color and the mouse pointer.

    We are an OEM that systems of electronic Assembly is based, in our machine is a PC running Windows XP Professional that provides the interface for the operator. Some of our systems have begun to crash intermittently when stopping.  Up to now we have seen it on three machines.  There has been no change to hardware or drivers that we put on these machines.

    The PC is supposed to stop at the point were he said "It is now turn off your computer", but it hangs when the only thing on the screen is the default windows background and the mouse pointer. The mouse moves, but that's all. He is unresponsive to ctrl-alt-delete, or any other entry.

    This was reported 5 times, and in any case there's nothing in any log file which would tend to indicate where the problem is maybe.

    I guess we have a bad driver or device, but the problem only happens once all stops of 5-10, and only after the machine is turned on for a while.

    I just turned on the detailed status messages, but they did not stop the machine since.

    What I asked is: is it possible to get windows to connect to all events stop? I really want to know what he was doing when he stopped.  Can someone else think something I can look at, or a better way to debug this?

    Re: a suggestion on this new monitor to 'prove' is the source of the problem
    Disconnect it, connect a type non-ecran touch "ordinary".
    stop/restart in safe MODE, make sure that the old monitor is not appear in the Device Manager [what we used to call a ghost]
    If it IS, delete it & uninstall the sw provided with touch screen
    Reboot in normal mode
    Try a stop
    If you get the old orange it'S now SAFE, tell the seller about IT.

  • Your power plan information isn't available - and default Windows 7 missing power management

    I recently installed Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit on my laptop HP Pavilion DM1-4027sa (ships with the 32-bit version, but I wanted to install more than 4 GB of memory where the change in 64-bit).  Initially, all default power plans were presented and Windows Experience Index has worked.  Then somewhere along the line of the installation of a large number of windows updates (including SP1) and install the latest HP Power Manager (the root of the problem, in my opinion), the default power disappeared and it stopped the test Windows Experience Index working (details below).  I searched these forums and the internet more widely for a solution and have already tried the following:

    As well, the default settings have been removed (probably by HP Power Manager) is it possible to re - install the Win 7 default power management without making a long system repair?  (I have installed since many things that literally took days.  So I really hated to have to all downwind just to fix this power scheme)
    Thank you in advance to anyone who can answer this question.

    I think I have solved this problem.  The information in the links below I created .pow files for all default windows using plans/plans (energy saving, high performance and balance) on an another Windows 7 laptop (a Lenovo N200 with a power management which had not been ruined by the program of management of power supply by the manufacturer).  I then imported these power schema files into my HP laptop and, fingers crossed, everything works as it should again.  I hope it will help someone else who has the same problem after installing the HP Power Manager (it is no doubt HP Power Manager that caused the problem in the first place).

  • How to increase the default window size?

    Original title: default window size

    My windows 7 opens too small windows.  Can not know how to make default to a larger size.

    Hi archievee.

    Do not use Maximize. Take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window.

    If this does not work, try this.

    Right-click on the icon and select Properties. Under the run drop-down list, select Maximized.

    I hope this helps.
