• my display settings keep returning on 2 screens at startup to the top

  I have attached a second monitor to my Sony laptop.  The 2d display monitor used to iterate through a docking station Kensington DisplayLink.  For some reason, the docking station picks up is no longer display for the #2--si monitor I recently started to connect the monitor directly #2 on my laptop.  Now every time I disconnect the monitor #2 to try to use the laptop with the Moose #1 display attached - after startup, it comes in white.  I discovered the Dungeon of display settings back to the #2 monitor, as the main display with the office displays only on the monitor #2 - it's why my laptop screen is blank - unless I'm reconnect the 2d display whenever I start.  But it is not practical and the net effect is that until this has been resolved I can't use my laptop away from my office.  I keep resettingt the display settings in the control panel to a single monitor, but it keeps going back to 2.  What is the solution?

  Hi, Msnsurf101,

  Check your settings in the Bios

  Procedures vary depending on the manufacturer of the BIOS. Usually, you must press a key (for example, F2, F12, DEL, ESC) or a key combination whenever you turn on your computer but before Windows starts. For more information, see the documentation provided with your computer or go to the website of the manufacturer of the computer.

  

  Warning

  Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

• 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

• Firewall Windows settings keep changing ~ I don't change them! HELP Please

  Recently, I noticed that to change my Windows Firewall settings, AND I'm not modify them.

  I set the Windows Firewall as follows:

  1. on the "Général" tab
  I ticked the boxes: 'On' (recommended) and "don't allow exceptions".
  2. in the tab 'Exceptions ':
  NO boxes are checked
  I ticked 'display a notification when Windows Firewall blocks a program '.
  3. on the "Advanced" tab
  ONLY "Connection to the Local network" is checked
  and under the 'Settings' button ICMP NO boxes are checked.

  Periodically, I notice that my "Network Icon" (two screens) is very active when I'm not navigate on the internet or by e-mail.  When I click with the right button on the icon and select "Change Windows Firewall settings", I note that the following changes have been made to my original settings, BUT NOT BY me!

  1. on the "Général" tab
  The box: 'On' (recommended) is checked
  BUT "don't allow exceptions" is now disabled
  2. in the tab 'Exceptions ':
  File sharing and printer is enabled
  AND "Display a notification when Windows Firewall blocks a program" is now disabled
  3. on the "Advanced" tab
  If I click on the box 'Connect to the Local network' that is always checked
  under ICMP, and go to the "Settings" button
  NOW, the first "Allow an incoming echo request" is checked.

  Earlier this week, I hadn't double checked if the parameters have changed and started printing a Word document, I had been editing.  Before the start of my print file, my printer started to print pages and pages of garbled text (just the letters and not readable ~ grabage).  After the cancellation of all the print jobs, I checked the Windows Firewall settings again, and they had been changed from the original settings that I had chosen, once again!

  The only way I can restore my original settings is to click on the default button on the tab "Advanced" and then double-checking the options I want.

  This happens at least 8 times a day and makes me crazy, because I am constantly having to check if the Windows Firewall settings are as I put them in the first place.  If they are not, I have to go through this process over and over again.  By making print a nightmare, but it's also annoying to have to keep control of the settings.

  Ask everything you big strong guys out there to give this 'small' a helping hand technique with this one, please.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  1. is there any firewall other than Windows Firewall running?

  2. using any antivirus?

  3. Since when did you start to deal with the issue?

  Method 1: It could be virus issue. First we will analyze the system for infections using the Microsoft Security Scanner which can be downloaded from the link below:

• Network discovery, file sharing settings keep changing by itself and Alltel to set the network location continues to ask the wireless device

  former title: network location settings. Discovery of NW. File sharing. public folder sharing. AVG 9.0 'tools' and network connections.

  My Alltel Wireless device again set the network location. And continues to change my network settings for the discovery of NW to:, as well as file sharing for: file public and sharing: read-only.  I have AVG Security 9.0 and under 'tools' and connections network shows several svchost with States reading service connections listening and unknown. I don't want no access to my computer and cannot find any computer consultants who can get this to stop. What can I do?

  Hello
   
  1. the options apply automatically on?
  2. have you made changes on the computer recently?
  3. have you installed any Alltel Wireless application to manage network connections?
  4. What is the current network location type on? Is it home, work or public?
  Network discovery and file sharing settings depend on the network location. For examle, if you set the network as a public location it turn on file sharing.  So I would ask you to turn all the parameters and then choose the type of network and check if the parameters change again.
  
  Method 1.
  I recommend you to check if the problem exists in clean boot. May be a third party application is causing these changes.
  See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.
  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: When the diagnosis is complete, don't forget to reset your computer to normal startup. Follow step 7 in the above article.
   
  Method 2.
  Also check the settings under tools in AVG security suite. You may need to check with the help of AVG on it.
  Or you can disable the antivirus software and check if that causes this behavior.
  Temporarily disable the security software installed on the computer and check if the problem persists.
  Disable the anti-virus software
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
  Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
  
  I hope this helps.

• 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.

• Photoshop CC continues to change my display settings of windows folder

  Whenever I have save a PS file in a specific folder on my desktop, the display settings for this folder is reset to the default values.

  For example, I like the vision on 'details' and sort in descending by "date modified" order (no 'date', which means that I have to uncheck the field 'date' and check the field "date modified" whenever that happens)

  I opened and closed this file on my desk several times a day and the view remains the same, but as soon as I save a file out of PS and navigate to this folder from the backup dialog box, the display will return to "thumbnails" once again. which would be ok if it only showed that way while in the PS, but once that happens, it changes the view even when I open the folder on the desktop.

  This does not happen with other programs, Psalm one, I use windows 7 pro 64-bit.

  It is interesting to note that if I change the display inside registration settings dialog box, those changes do not appear when I open the desktop folder.

  In addition, once I have make changes, PS will keep the settings for all subsequent save operations, even after the closing and reopening of the program. But once that I reboot I'm at square one.

  Photoshop has no control over that. It's a BONE setting, and open/save are the OS (not really controlled by Photoshop) dialog boxes.

• Satellite Pro L300: How to change the display settings

  Hi I have a toshiba satellite pro l300 run a pentium dual core and intel 965 display chip any games I play on my laptop, they open in a small box and not full screen I've had a quick glance at the settings to try to resolve this with no luck.

  Can someone tell me if there is a way to change the settings to get the games to play in full screen, my current display settings are 1280 x 800 pixels and running at 32-bit color.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  You should set this option to full screen in the games you play. Checked for these options, because you are given something like graphics, solution details and in most cases should be windowed.

  One thing you might try is to uninstall your current display drivers, and then reinstall new ones. Make sure that you use tools like ccleaner cleaning record or similar.
  Check if you have installed all the latest updates of windows and directx version, if you are using Windows XP.

  It could be that your video driver has been reset to some VGA default, rather than the specific card in your system. Check the properties of the display to see if it is correct for your telephone. (Right click on the desktop, properties, settings). You should see the screen and display adapter listed.

  Unlikely, but you can also visit Accessiblility (display) settings in the control panel to make sure that none of those who have been changed.
