You must install the correct Windows Vista drivers for your video
Card and maybe your monitor. Bring them to their manufacturer
Web sites.

  • Firefox does not appear in "partial" mode I can't get the display full screen or reduced display, not the intermediate partial screen window.

    When the screen is reduced to a minimum, I have to hover over the preview, right - select optimize for any screen at all, and it's the display full screen.

  • I can't enlarge full screen on any games, I try to play. What should I try?

    I can't enlarge full screen on any games, I try to play. They only appear in a little box in the middle of the screen. When I have the option "full screen" on it is black the rest of the screen, but there is still the small size. What should I try?

    Hi Amergular,
     
    -With what games are you having this problem?
    -You are using a laptop or a desktop computer?
     
    Try the methods that are listed in the order.
     
    Method 1: If you know what your game is set to run at the resolution, set the display settings of Windows at the same resolution as the game. You can also try to adjust your display resolution of 640 x 480 high color (16 bit) and check if it helps.
    For more information, see:
     
    Method 2: To determine if there is a problem with the video card or video driver, reduce the graphics hardware acceleration setting. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. Click Start, type personalization in the search box and then click on personalization in the list programs.

    b. click on display settings. Click on advanced settings.

    c. click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

    d. move the hardware acceleration slider two notches to the left of Full (the Disable cursor and bitmap accelerations setting).

    e. click OK, and then click Restart now.

    f. once the computer has restarted, test the game.

    Note: If reduce hardware acceleration resolves the issue, you may need to update your video card drivers, or it may mean that your video adapter cannot run your game at full speed.

     
    Method 3: Update the video card driver by visiting the website of the manufcturer.
  • How can I get full screen when you run qbasic on Windows 7 starter?

    Hello Joseph,.

    Sorry for the late reply. It seems that you cannot run Qbasic (Version 1.1) on your computer in Windows 7.

    You can uninstall the program and install it in compatibility mode. Here's how:

    1. Right-click on the configuration file (program).
    2. Go to Properties. Click on the compatibility tab.
    3. Place a check on the option run this program in compatibility mode for and in the drop-down list, choose the operating system on which it was working fine.
    4. Place a check on run as administrator under the level of privileges and click on apply , then OK.
    5. Now, double-click the setup file to start the installation.

  • Photoshop elements Organizer 11: display full screen of low-grade with PES 10, before?

    The upgrade of the PES 10 to 11, I noticed that when I look at my images with the Organizer in PSE 11 in full display mode screen (F11), while the images load faster, they are presented in a lower quality PES 10 or any other version of the EPS I owned before. In PES 11, after first viewing in full screen (in "fit screen" mode), when I click with the mouse on an image to view the '100% ', there is a delay and the program says "Loading"... ", after which 100% in the mode display full screen. When I click and then once with the mouse on the image to return to "fit screen" mode, I get a better image quality than when the initial view!

    So it seems that the program first gives a faster display, but more low quality of the image in full screen mode, and only after that the user requests a 100% view, it actually loads the image with all the details, which are then kept when to return to the display "fit screen". It is a serious problem for me, because I also use PSE Organizer to show my photos to other people, and I don't want to show them some versions of lower quality of my images, but the full quality, without having to first select 'view 100% ' and then go back to "fit screen".

    How can I make the Organizer PES 11 give me a good quality image full screen right away, because it used is the case in PSE10 and before?

    (I now have two versions, 10 PES, and PES 11 on the same computer and tested to confirm that the initial view full screen of PES 11 is lower quality than 10 PSE one.) Also in PES 10, there is virtually no delay for the '100% ' subsequently view display, indicating that the image has loaded with a lot of details right now.)

    Support adobe today confirmed me that there is a new feature of PES 11: When you press F11 in the Organizer, the image full screen that discover you is actually a miniature pre-recorded with a lower resolution. Only after that you look at the image in full screen at 100%, it loads the image full resolution, that's why there is another delay load in this step. This has changed from previous versions, including 10 PES, apparently in order to save memory and make the program more quickly.

    However, actually, that means that after all the work, a photographer did, using expensive equipment in order to obtain sharp high-resolution images, the PES 11 Organizer allows them to watch you in full screen only as a miniature! (Unless, of course, whenever you click first at the sight of 100% and then back to the 'fit to screen'.)

    They have taken this up to the next higher layer of support, at least. I hope they make at least an option to load the image of good quality immediately when pressing F11. (As it was in previous versions of PSE).

  • Use all displays full-screen will only clone, not extend

    I upgraded Tech Preview in July when asked last week.  Before the update, I had two working in two different Windows 7 computers virtual screens.  Since the update, view, use all displays full-screen will only clone, extend to the screen.

    It happened when I originally installed the Tech Preview as well.  In this case, I managed to toggle putting forwards and backwards and it started working.

    When I look to the customization of the display under windows it only shows a monitor and it does not find another when I click on "Detect".  I am able to use views independently under MacOSX.

    It is the Lion of mountain, MacPro, Late Model 2009 22 GB of memory.

    What should do?

    Ah ok.  You use the value of the experience of the user as an indicator of video driver problems.  Also, when you suggested, update the video driver you just wanted to make sure that the latest VMware tools has been installed.  Ok.

    Had already checked those things and I had used the menu VMware to reinstall the tools.  Value of my user experience was 4.7.

    In any case, it seems to have been a problem with the tools VMware install because after I followed the instructions to manually install it here: VMware KB: installing the VMware tools on a Fusion VM running Windows, making a repair, everything's fine.  My video driver also shows a date of July 2013 now.

    Thanks for your reply.  He helped.

  • Compare the speed of display full screen: PSE8 vs PSE5?

    My workflow requires fast full screen showing in organiser of a few hundreds of RAW files in a session.  I PSE5 now and traffic flowed well when I was working with jpg files.

    Now, every RAW photo takes about 8 to 10 seconds to come against the dry 1 to 2 w jpg alumni.  IrfanView is a very fast in the visualization of a RAW file after another, but it only works for files in a folder of successive WinXP.  I need to call several files with a common set of tags and these quick screen.

    Done PSE8 fast full screen display of a file in a file?  How fast?

    [I tried to install the evaluation version of PSE8 in Sandboxie because I was worried about damage if I disliked PSE8 but my installation did not work.  Error Msg: "License for this product has stopped working" error 148.3
    so I come to you for help.]

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    Upgrading your computer may provide modest improvements in speed display full screen of the PSE 5, it is not going to provide dramatic improvements.  PSE 5 I haven't looked in detail, but PSE 6-8 full-screen is ill-conceived.  If you keep your drive defragmented and put the maximum amount of memory on your computer (usually about $35 / gigabyte these days), you will get most of the benefit of moving to a new computer on this issue.  Your current graphics card is more pretty fast.

    If after the defragmentation and upgrade memory, you are still not satisfied, I suggested to thnk Paige moving to Lightroom will provide much better bang-for-money.
