• Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.

  Hello

  I recently rebooted my computer; (Packard Bell) and now cannot run games or screen savers because it does not start. I think my problem has something to do with a Direct3D card? When I run screensavers, I get this message:

  Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.

  I have the impression that sound when I run the 3D games, such as minecraft or GMOD.

  I run on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and does not do anything but re - install my computer because it wouldn't start.

  It is not as if the graphics card is not there, so I'm really confused!

  Please help me, like playing games is my favorite thing. ;)

  I also ran minecraft to double check and I got this error code:

  Bad video card drivers!

  -----------------------

  Minecraft could not start because it did not find an accelerated OpenGL mode.

  Generally, this can be corrected by updating the video card drivers.

• Windows cannot start the screen saver

  I get this message instead of a screen saver... no matter which, I chose. If I go to preview, all he says is that there is "no preview available".

  It started this week. I install nothing new at the time it started, at least one week before, and I think it was actually longer than a week.
  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2

  Thank you! Home at last got to this do and method 1 worked. I could have lived without the screen saver, but I prefer it. Happy to have it work again.

• Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D. Hotfix does not work/run

  I am running windows 7 ultimate, 64-bit, SP1

  The screen savers say they can't run, they need a new video card, or a compatible with direct3d.

  I ran the fix.  The issue is pending. Hotfix: KB2159238

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2159238

  All of the video drivers are up to date and they support Direct3D.

  Seems a lot of people have this issue - how to fix? Yet once again, the fix does not work (says "this update is not applicable to your computer")

  

  

  Hello Dave,

  Thank you for your response.

  I appreciate your time and your concern.

  It is normal that the fix is made for the Windows 7 version without service pack 1.

  I hope you can try the following methods provided in the previous post.

  However, if the problem persists, I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall display drivers.

  Step 1:
  Uninstall the display driver.

  a. Click Start, type Device Manager in the start search box and press ENTER.
  b. expand 'graphics', right-click on the map and click Uninstall.
  c. restart the computer, if the prompt message.

  Step 2:
  Install the latest driver to display from this link:

• Error messgae: "the screen saver cannot run because it requires a more recent video card", attempting to display the screen saver and the error code 40 download the fix.

  Original title: cannot run zip; error code 40 (hotfix for the video card)

  Hi, I ' m trying to view my screen saver and it seems to be causing "the screen saver can't run because it requires a newer video card or compatible with 3d graphics." (2030 M-windows7 dell) .thanks Jean-Michel

  Hi John,.

  1. what screen saver are you trying to view?

  2 is confined to a specific screen saver?

  3. have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

  This problem occurs because of a problem in 3D screensavers.

  Fix error occurs if you have a corrupt hotfix package or may have downloaded the wrong patch for your platform.

  This can also occur if the hotfix is included in SP1 and you have already installed Windows 7 SP1.

  Method 1:

  You must make sure that the hotfix you download is depending on the version of Windows 7 installed on your computer.

  For more information, see the article:

  Error message when you set a 3D screen saver screen saver in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2: "the screen saver can't run because it requires a more recent or Direct3D-compatible video card.

  Please see if you can copy the file that you downloaded to another computer or location and try to unpack.

  When you download the fix, save it in a new location (on the desktop) and the password given with the fix allows to extract the file.

  Method 2:

  Step 1:

  You can also try to run the display quality Troubleshooter and check if it helps.

  Step 2:

  You too, try to install the latest version of the Site Web of Dell display drivers and check if it helps.

  Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

• Mac Pro freezes on the screen saver 10.11.5

  Have a Mac Pro and have a problem when the system freezes and locks up and must power cycle back.    He had related app so tested, but also happens with no apps running third and now thinking seems to be related screensaver.  I have turned off the screen saver and will see what happens now.  However, someone else has the issue of the screensaver crashing the OS X on a Mac Pro to 10.11.5?

  No, I have not heard of this.

  You do not all apps of third parties running in the foreground, but can still cause the problem. Boot in safe mode (hold down the SHIFT key when starting) and see if the problem persists when the screen saver is used.

• Error code 70879003: cannot lock the memory segment.

  Hi guys,.

  I am trying to build a program runs on a windows CE of touch screen system and tested the majority of individual components to see that they work on the system and they have all been successful, however when I build and try to run the entire program, I am presented with a popup box saying:

  App failed. Error code 70897003. Cannot lock the memory segment.

  The program then stops completely. I tried to search the web and the forums, but this specific error code is not mentioned anywhere, and the information that I have known impossible to segment errors memory locking has not been very useful and how to solve this problem.

  Any suggestion or help would be very appreciated.

  OK, so I solved the problem myself, it turns out that's not at all a problem of backend, in my front panel I accidentally overlapped 2 resulting in a being placed inside the other tab controls. Move them so they are not stacked and the problem is solved.

  So moral of the story if someone gets this error in the future, check your tab controls are not overlapping / stacked.

• I am unable to adapt both the screen saver is activated

  I am unable to adapt both the screen saver is activated, I put the link, but it acts as if it was before progrmmed?

  Also is there a way to avoid to connect every time?

  The problem with these parameters is that they overlap.  The screen saver setting is perhaps not the one place to look: you should also watch your 'screen time out", as well as waiting times"lock screen ".  In addition, it could be the energy saving sleep timer.  From the point of view of the user, they all look the same (the screen turns off), but to get the desired exact situation, you may need to check up to 4 places.

  1. Right-click on the desktop > personalize > screen saver
     Even if you do not use a screensaver, this timer value is used to lock the screen.  The value 'none' and make sure that the check box is disabled, it does not require a password.
  2. Power options > Change when turn off the display
     Also look at the "require a password on wakeup" option here
     
  3. Power options > change when the computer sleeps
     Also look at the "require a password on wakeup" option here
     
  4. Application settings > lock screen settings

• 4 keyboard key opens the calculator, 3 button opens Notepad, - key starts the screen saver.

  You have problems with programs: when I hit the 4 key, my calculator will appear.  I checked hotkey in properties, and he says nothing.  When I assigned another shortcut to the calculator, the 4 button was always popping up the calculator.  The 3 button opens notepad and 0 or - starts the screen saver. 7 pop open my cd-rom drive.  5. I can't use at all (I'll have to use the keyboard to the right of my keyboard to type this message again.

  • Recent changes made to your computer: drivers installed MinoHD.  A refurbished device that my virus scan caught and removed the 2 virus when I first plugged it.  In addition, have updated Mozilla firefox a couple of times on consecutive days - I thought randomly.
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem: Virus scans a couple from different sources.

  I can't type the dollar sign (Maj 4) at all.  Although I hold SHIFT, it always opens the calculator when I press 4.  Someone has an idea?

  It's a laptop Lifebook Fujitsu Series N.  After I posted this, I heard somewhere that it could be a combo of my function key or my windows key.  I started playing with these buttons, including hitting the number lock / scroll lock key.  None of this seems to work, but then 5 minutes later, I tried to work on something else and I hit key 4 by habit and it worked normally.

  I do not know what undid the problem, but it was something in the sense of what you're saying.
