Desktop slideshow stops working - Windows 7

I have windows 7 32 bit and whenever I run any program that requires windows to switch to the classic desktop by temporarily disabling the Aero interface, the theme changes to "Unsaved Theme" with a single image, and he's not back to my original theme. I must change the theme manually myself and remove the theme unregistered every time. My theme is a slide show of images more that changes about every hour.

It's embarrassing because I run a lot of things that requires the computer to switch to classic mode, and I don't want to turn my slide show manually every 20 minutes or so because I ran one of these programs.
Specifications of the computer:
Operating system: Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
CPU: Genuine Intel Dual Core 3.2 Ghtz CPU (not overclocked)
ATI Radeon x 1650 Pro512 MB
SoundBlaster Live! Value
All drivers are later they can be. I have seen this problem mentioned anywhere on the web without a solution, but I did not saw it mentioned here, to this extent.

I'm sorry, I know I said the classic mode, but I wanted to say that in this case all the time windows automatically becomes my windows 7 Basic color scheme. (Glass went transparent, blue, rounded title bars and a message near the system tray that says light

"The color scheme was changed to windows 7 Basic. A running program is not compatible with certain Visual elements of Windows. »
However, this problem was solved in my case. It turns out that a 3rd party program I was using called UltraVNC Server was using the wrong setting, that invalidates the background image to display during a remote connection with another client computer. Whenever Windows switched to the basic mode to use the VNC server, the Office would turn black, and then the background would be returned to the previous photo without the slideshow an Aero has been restored.
For those of you with UltraVNC Server installed, modify your administrative options to ensure that VNC Server option "Remove wallpaper for viewers" is not selected. This solved my problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Original title: program compatibility Application Applications App Apps game games Legacy Crash crashes Hang hangs

    Hi Donna Lewis.

    'Set Office agent' If you look closely at the error, it will say something about the port officer at Qwest. This agent is like the update of the installer of Qwest.

    Try this...

    (a) click the Start button, in the start search box, type msconfig and press the Enter key

    (b) click on the Startup tab and scroll down until you find Desktop Agent sandbox.

    (c) clear the disable check box and click on OK.

     

    Just delete the Qwest Installer through Control Panel and you should be good to go.

  • Remote Desktop has stopped working suddenly Premium Ultimate

    I used to be able to remote desktop to my laptop with Vista Home Premium on my desktop with Vista Ultimate. All of a sudden, it stopped working (March 09). I tried many steps of troubleshooting without success and I searched and searched online with no resolution. Help! I examined even the laptop to ultimate upgrade, but I seriously doubt that would correct the problem, since I should be able to remote desktop ON the ultimate machine (not in it, of course) and did so successfully for over a year... so far. I don't know what changed between yesterday and today, with the exception of Windows updates. No other software or hardware has been installed. The laptop has wireless and it works very well - I can access the Internet and the network with no problems at all.

    Steps, I have taken/other info: (not necessarily in order - just write them as they come to me)
    1) reset all the workstations and the router (I have a 3rd computer which has XP also).
    (2) checked to make sure port 3389 is open on my router 2 and in the firewall (McAfee). Within McAfee, do ensure that the remote desktop program and service were allowed, both directions and on all the workstations. Also controlled canyouseeme.org to ensure that port 3389 is indeed open and he succeeded.
    (3) connection I tried with the firewall disabled on two workstations and always without success.
    (4) Made sure that on the host, the remote settings have been enabled and all users can connect, using any version of Windows. Also tried unchecking, reset and rechecked.
    (5) the user accounts on all workstations are directors.
    (6) the fact that the Terminal Server service has been started on the host. Tried them stopping and restarting.
    (7) tried ping - success in all directions by the two IP address and computer name.
    (8) network resources are available in all directions - I can see and access files shared all around.
    (9) installed all the Windows updates available. Reloaded later.
    (10) remote desktop from the laptop to the machine off XP is successful. Ultimate machine to XP is successful. From XP to ultimate is successful. The only one who does not work (and it's an important) is from the laptop to the machine by excellence. Argh!
    (11) even tried to restore the laptop provided the factory (tested - didn't work) and then through all Windows updates (test I went - never able to operate).
    (12) fact that Windows Firewall has been disabled on all workstations.
    (13) fact that network discovery, file sharing and public folder sharing is turned on.
    (14) RDP I tried with the name of the computer with the IP address.
    What Miss me? The only thing I can think is that somehow one of Windows Update caused this problem, but my research online for someone else knows this at the same time me are coming short. So I'm completely confused and frustrated!
    Thanks for reading my post, and I'd appreciate any help.
    Sally

    I didn't need to post on the technet forum, because I have solved the problem. I decided to bite the bullet and just give my idea to try and hope for the best (created a first system restore point). The solution was so freakin ' easy... wonder why I couldn't find all the details on how to do...?

    In any case; On the ultimate box (the one I am trying to remote desktop in), I opened the management console (mmc.exe) and add the Certificates snap, for the computer account, computer local. Double click on certificates, double click on the desktop folder remotely, double click on the Certificates folder and highlighted the certificate (there was only one, with the name of the computer as the title) and removed (first of all, I copied and put it in another folder, just in case where).

    This solves completely the whole issue and workaround is no longer necessary.

    I hope this helps someone else.
