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.

  • Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process

    My computer was working fine until last night. Now when I connect I get a blue screen saying that the computer shuts down to prevent further damage from happening. I tried to restore to an earlier point in time when my computer was working but then I get the error:

    The OS disk (C :) has errors.
    Windows has detected corruption on OS (C :) file system. You should check the drive for errors before you can restore it.

    So I'm going to run the chkdsk utility, and I get the error:
    Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. You want to schedule this volume to check the next time the system restarts.

    I'm confused because the chkdsk unility usually works, and I have no idea why she is being used by another process. I am clearly not very good with computers. I tend to do a lot of spywear and adwear on my computer. I have Spyware Doctor that removes any infection.

    Help, please. I've tried everything. Thank you.

    Asha22,
    It appears from your last post why chkdsk did not run on reboot and you gave an incorrect message is that you did not a space between the volume and the f number.  The correct syntax is:

    CHKDSK c: /f

    You can also run the utility disc in this way:
    http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/bc1393cf-9f9c-79C7-0f91-9337c2c41f811033.mspx

    1. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.
     
    2. right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties.
     
    3. click on the Tools tab and then, under check for errors, click check now.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    To automatically repair problems with files and folders that the scan detects, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

    To perform a full disk check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

    To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.
     
    4. click on start.
     
    Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

    Note: If you select automatically errors in file system of fix for a disc that is used (for example, the partition that contains Windows), you will need to reschedule the disk check for the next time you restart your computer.

    The reason that it says that the disk is in use by another process is because it is in use by the operating system (Vista), and that's why it must be run at startup, before the operating system loads fully.

    Another utility, you need to perform is the System File Checker, if you can get your computer to start, either normally or in Mode without failure.
    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
    Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
    Right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
    At the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow
    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

    Let us know what these tests are and how we can also provide assistance.

  • Cannot run chkdsk - Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process.

    It's normal.  You can not run a check disk on your system disk because your system is to use.  The Message you get should ask you if you want to run it at the next reboot.  You must answer 'Yes' to this message, and then restart your computer.  A disk check should take place as it is restarted.

    FYI: A check disk can take hours if you have a large drive or there are a lot of problems on the disc and you cannot use your machine while the scan is in progress.  Better to operate during the night.  Also, I got checkdsk completely erase the hard disk to the point where the only option was to reformat and reinstall Windows.  Make sure that your data available are well-supported before running Chkdsk.

    Hello Michael,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    You can improve your current PC to Windows 10 by going to the Windows 10 software download page to download the media creation tool. The media authoring tool can be used to create a USB or DVD media to upgrade your current PC to Windows 10 or install Windows 10 on another PC.

    Follow the instructions on the download page of Windows 10 software: http://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10

    Note:

    When upgrading to Windows 10 using media, you must run setup.exe from in your version of Windows 7 or Windows 8 and authentic. If you want to boot from media, you must have upgraded to Windows 10 previously. Boot 10 Windows media directly without upgrading to Windows 10 previously is not supported and will have problems with activation.
