I get a lot of random pixels, moving, across my screen.

Any help would be appreciated.  I get tons of pixels all over the screen, like a snow storm.  I don't know what caused it or how to solve this problem, but if someone find this before and knows the solution I would be grateful for the help.  I tried windows update and norton, but that's about the extent of my troubleshooting skills.  Thanks for any help.

Hello

Have you tried to install a new set of display of the manufacturer drivers? Download them to view or system board manufacturer (not), then remove the existing configuration/programs and features Control Panel. Reboot, and then install the download.

The problem has always been there or just start recently? It get worse gradually or suddenly start too bad at the moment?

Desktop or laptop computer? In the first case, there is a good chance that the display card is bad sitting in its socket on the motherboard, the reinstallation may help. For a laptop, it may be loose or damaged wiring, and this aspect should be addressed by a qualified technician. If less than a year, use your warranty for this.

  • Cursor starts moving across the screen from left to right after the wake up the computer from standby or hibernation

    My PC to 'wake up' sleep/hibernate, the cursor initially moving across the screen from left to right, in which window is open, destroy all the document is on the screen. I force Windows to close. How to solve this other than turning off standby/hibernation?

    Looks like the cursor of the mouse is very sensitive when the computer comes out of standby or hibernation.
    I suggest that you go in the mouse properties and lower the sensitivity and see if that helps.
    You also need to update any driver mouse if possible.

    How to connect a winmail.dat

    I get a lot of attachments in winmail.dat and they are still in the code, so I can't read. How can I change this so I can read attachments? Thank you

In Outlook, the Winmail.dat file includes rich text formatting (RTF) instructions. This type of formatting is used with the Microsoft Outlook Rich Text format and when you use Microsoft Word as your e-mail editor.

    Have you noticed if it seems to happen after using a certain program?

    You can try to connect the laptop to an external monitor. If the same behavior is on the external monitor, then it's a video card problem. If it only happens to the screen of the laptop, then it might be software or a hardware in the Control Panel, motherboard problem or somewhere in between.

  • Using an IP191 monitor, have random horizontal stripes on the screen - have no problems with other browsers. also no problem with FF on the other PCs on the family

    Using an IP191 monitor, have random horizontal stripes on the screen - have no problems with other browsers. also no problem with FF on the other PCs on the family.

    These "streaks" seem to be the domain of the high frequency analysis; they can be eliminated by scrolling upwards or downwards.

    Hello, maybe it's a problem with hardware acceleration - try updating your graphic driver, or in case this does not solve the problem, or there is no new version available at the time, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu

  • On my ipad3 I rectangles blue moving around the screen. Momentarily switches to an article before moving on. Very irritating

    I have an iPad 3. Model MC707B/A. Version 9.3.2 (13F69).

    Blue rectangles are continually moving around the screen from one section to the other. Also a blue stripe sometimes crosses the screen. Has started yesterday for no apparent reason.

    I have tried rebooting with no luck. Helpline Apple could suggest only reset to factory settings. Does anyone have a less radical solution?

    This is one of the accessibility features. It's the switch command. You will need to go into settings > general > accessibility > switch control and turn it off. It is possible, that's what the setting is triple clicking the home button. Try triple clicking again and see if that if he stops, otherwise, use the road that I explained earlier.
