Hello

  • What happens when you try to access the options of thoes?
  • You receive an error message?
  • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?

I recommend you perform the clean boot and check if you are able to disable high contrast theme.

Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  • Images with high contrast remains on the screen S7-391

    Greetings,

    I just with high contrast images that are displayed for a long time on the stay of the screen visible to screen for minutes even after the changes to the image, it is as if the image were burning the screen, but they disappear after a few minutes.

    I posted two images showing the problem on my skydrive:

    This happens along the border of the screen with high contrast images, I have not tested if this happens in the middle of the screen, I will soon.

    Is this normal? Am I the only one having this problem? I use an Aspire S7-391

    It is normal for this model. It is called retention of screen but it is not permanent and will never be. It is a technique to enhance the capacity of the contrast of the Panel... a form of excessive training if you like. Personally, I'm not a fan of that and I did not for a few years as contrast improved in native mode on the LCD panels that it should not be necessary. Anyway, the important thing to say is that yours is not defective... its part of the design of this model.

  • High contrast stuck in change accessibility settings

    I turned on a high contrast in changing the setting / easy access.  He is stuck in a high contrast and will not die.  Any Suggestions?

    Thank you

    After much trial and error, worked the following text:

    1. click on "Appearance and personalization" in the Panel.

    2. click on "personalization."

    3. apply the themes and backgrounds to something other than Hi contrast;  High contrast in changing accessibility settings is now in the off position.  I think that there is a problem with windows, which should be addressed in an update.

    Thank you

    I came up with a solution to your problem.  I accidentally clicked and turned on at high contrast.  When I clicked to stop, nothing has changed.  I went online to chat with a Microsoft representative online.  A man has remote controlled my computer to solve the problem.  I know what to do.  Go to your home page, then click Desktop.  Once you get to your office, to the RIGHT, CLICK on the screen.  A small box opens to the right of the needle.  Click CUSTOMIZE.  Then click on the theme of WINDOWS under the windows 3 default themes.  You must click on the one with the flower top.  Turn off you high contrast

  • Disabling the high contrast setting

    I was with the settings accessibility and turned on the high contrast setting to see what it looked like. Now I can not turn off. I returned to the control panel and disabled box high-contrast and even after restarting the computer. I tried everything and still no luck. I always have this appearance of contrast to everything on the screen. Is there a way to reset everything to factory settings?

    Press the PrtSc and moving to the left, the left alt and it will turn off the high contrast its on or put it on if its judgment.

  • Weather gadget stuck off the screen

    I installed Vista to Windows 7 on my Dell laptop. The Weather Channel gadget is stuck off the screen, with only a small part visible. I can't move it, but I can open it from the small arrow is the only thing that I can see. How can I take off it to move on the desktop?

    Hello Smarski,

    I don't know what you see for the arrow. I installed the Weather Channel widget and find the normal buttons, including relatives, gadget drag more big size, Options. Try to right-click on it and using the menu shortcut or select move and move the gadget, or select close and then open again to place it in the default location on the desktop.

    Hope this helps

    I have a computer for no reason while not using it decides to lock and stuck on the screen "computer lock you."

    I already have several times, power options changes since I work in a corporate environment all the machines are defined with the same question.

  • Client VMware View Horizon and high DPI screens

    Hello

    I wonder if anyone has a solution for getting the customer view play nice with high DPI screens like those with screen resolution 3200 x 1800, or Apple 2880 x 1800 on the retina of Macbook 15 "screen resolution. View client does not seem to evolve properly, and the only solution seems to be to change the desktop screen resolution and then connecting display. I don't think that it is a very graceful difficulty, and my users are not too happy about it either.
