Display settings have changed on my computer automatically.

My computer was working fine last night, and I left it on overnight. This morning when I turned on the screen I saw that some settings have changed, the menu of the bar of tasks and put in service turned to a grayish-white, my screen of the internet (using mozilla firefox and IE8) has changed and my internet has slowed down considerably (I was watching flash videos and they have been completely downloaded in a minute or two now that they freeze after a few minutes after you download only the half of the show). Furthermore, the police has changed, it looks smaller. I did not any changes to one of the parameters, but they have changed somehow.  Can someone please help me to identify and verify my problem?

Thanks in advance

Edit * I think that my internet has slowed down due to the weather - my internet is based on a 4 G connection and today the weather became cloudy with some rain and looking at a page of my ISP frequencies using my internet connection show that he has slowed down a bit.

Thanks for your reply, but I was not able to solve the problem. I have windows xp btw. After you click the Start button, then I clicked on the search button and type in "System Restore", but he did not find anything. I also typed in 'run' and he took my to another page but the "uac prompt" was not one of the options.

  • Display settings keep Changing

    Continues to change my display settings to start. Specifically, it's the colors that change from 32 bit to 8 or 16 bits. Whenever I simply go to display settings, change the 32-bit color and all is well, but I am trying to determine what is the cause for the last number she is reset at startup. I have a Vista SP2 Core 2 Duo CPU. I don't know if this is has nothing do with it, but in the monitor display settings is set to 1. Generic PNP monitor on NVIDIA GeForce 8400 M GS, 1920 x 1200, 32-bit. There is also another 2. (By default the monitor) on NVIDIA GeForce 8400 M GS, but its resolution is 800 x 600 and is not Basel to change. Not sure if it matters that I am using the monitor 1. Also, while I've updated to the latest NVIDIA driver, the 1. Generic monitor, which is what I use, present in advanced settings / properties that the driver Date was 2008 and 2. (Default monitor) was 2010... and right now, I just went back to 1. and now the date changes from 2008 to 16/10/2010. What the hell, why the date of the fair driver update itself in those seconds of coming and going? What was the problem? Restart now to determine that. Will update.

    OK, think about it. It's Windows Live Messenger to Start Up - this program has been configured to run on 256 colors (8-bit which is). Unchecked "run in 256 colors" in the properties of Windows Live Messenger. The Compatibility tab, rebooted and all is fine, do not go back to 8 bits. Solved

  • All my settings have changed and all cookie exceptions are deleted

    I generally work with disabled cookies (do not allow web sites to store cookies). I then manually allow selected sites to do so.

    Recently, I tried to add a site to the exceptions list only to find out that good number of my settings were changed and all my exceptions have been removed.

    I do not did it intentionally. The only thing I can think is that I allowed FF upgrade to 36.0. I think it was a few weeks ago.

    How can I get the list of exceptions in the cookie back? There was at least 100, perhaps much more. I have no way of knowing which they were all.

    How can I avoid this happening again?

    It seems to work.

  • DatabaseIOException - encryption settings have changed

    Hello

    I'm new to the BB dev and I came across a problem that I can't solve.  I tested my code/app on 9780 and 9800 with OS6 simulators as well as actual devices.  They work very well.  The application uses the SQLite database and is stored on SD card with encrption on the database file.

    My problem is with the newew Torch 9810 with OS7 (Simulator and real device) from the first use of the application works well, BUT after you leave and ebb in the application, I get an error of DatabaseIOException - "Eception Exception: Encrption parameters have changed'.»»  I'm stuck and can't find a solution...

    Anyone know what is happening or have a solution?  My data encrption method is similar to the demo of SQLite.

    Thanks in advance.

    I found a solution that works for me... instead of using the method DatabaseFactory.openOrCreate, that I've used them separately to check first if the database exists

    Database db;
    
    if (!DatabaseFactory.exists(uri)) {
        db = DatabaseFactory.create(uri, new DatabaseSecurityOptions( false));
    } else {
        db = DatabaseFactory.open(uri);
    }

    Hello

    "Simple, typing in an e-mail and internet access, office, and all access to windows is blurred."

    It's not fair to Hotmail as your header States.

    Go to the website of your computer manufacturer > drivers download Section > then key in your computer model number > find your operating system > find two graphics / video or from the Chipset drivers and download and install.

    Then try to change the screen resolution.

    Or do a system restore to before that happened.

  • Desktop and personal settings have changed after the restart of norton antivirus update

    I recently had Norton through Live Update and restarted my computer as required by the update.  When I logged in, it me considered a new user and created a whole new desktop and profile - same created a new default folder under My Documents.  I logged in using the same information as before ID - but now instead of her load my old profile, office, and preferences, it loads up as if it were the first time that you log on as a new user.  It does not reference my old information.  All my documents are still there.  It created a new folder using my name. Media CENTER (the name of my pc's media CENTER).  So now, instead going into the folder "bcwinn" to load my profile, he created a new called a 'bcwinn '. MEDIACENTER.  Any idea on how to get the load of the process out of my 'bcwinn' folder information as he had before?  My user name and password have not changed: that's weird!

    I just had the same problem (1 year later) with my Vista Home Premium on a Norton update restart.  I used a restore point to get my settings.

  • Monitor display settings are too big

    I went to the settings display and changed the settings of the monitor.  The display is now so important that I can't see my Start button, taskbar and icons on the desktop.  I can open the Explorer (because I accidentally found this icon) but if I have the minimize, I don't see the new window even when I use alt + ESC.  I can't start using the keyboard windows key.

    I can right click on the desktop and extract options view, refresh, etc.  but I can't click on properties and see the window which would normally come to the top.

    I also tried to turn the computer off and on and pressing F8 to get the computer to start in safe mode, nothing works.

    I can't view anything that I need to correct my error.

    I have a second monitor, I thought to hang, do not know if it works.

    Is there anything else I can try?

    Hello

    Right click on the desktop and the menu, press the arrow up once and press . This should get the display options to the top (customization). Initially, touch six times, then to open the display you settings have changed.

    To move the box around the screen so that you can access the settings, press alt + space + m, then use the arrows until it is where you want, and then click . You should be able to cancel your changes here.

    Alternatively, press the Windows key on your keyboard and type "System Restore" and click Enter, choose a date to restore before you make the changes. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  • Always insensitive display settings?

    Well, my computer resets to a lower screen resolution, but when I go to my display settings to change, the window does not respond, and the blue loading circle appears everywhere where I put my pointer. I had this same problem in December, but I tried one of the recommended steps in my thread of the previous question, and it worked. This time, however, it does not.

    I tried the SFC scan checkdisk and system restore, who did restore to an earlier point in time, but unfortunately, the new resolution has always remained the same. I even tried to change the resolution through the registry editor and enter a new DPI, but that has not changed anything either. I use Windows Vista with HP Compaq Presario CO60. If it is possible to set the display settings and make sensitive again would be great, but if not, is there another way to change the resolution of the screen? Thank you!

    Your user profile may be corrupted.  To fix this usehttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  You can't just transfer everything via - you must make sure that you get all the files and folders that you need and there are several files that cannot be copied (the article explains this).  But if the other account works, then this is the solution.  I would like to make another account administrator or two just in case something happens to this news.  Also, I would delete the obsolete account once that everything that needs to be moved was moved.  It is generally recommended to use a standard account for your daily work and the account administrator only when needed (for reasons of security - a hack of an account administrator is MUCH more dangerous that a hack of a standard user account).

    Bravo to come with this option!  Now all we need to do is implement as described above and you should be good to go.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Error in registry, I deleted some parts of my registry and I need to know how to restore them. Specifically my display settings program.

    I downloaded and safety program Internet and a registry cleaner. I ran the cleaner registry and nothing but problems have had since then. Later, my screen resolution resets to the smallest setting and when I tried to access my display settings to change, I got an error message saying:

    "This file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the control panel to define the Associations. "

    The top of the said[C:\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe sign]

    I need to know another method of changing my display settings, how do I restore my registry, or how to find the program that I need and how to associate it with my display settings.

    And now you have a great illustration of why registry cleaners are garbage. And who knows what the "Internet Security" program that you have installed. This looks like a thug. If possible, use the registry cleaner and cancel whatever it was you did. Then search for malicious software.
