Icons don't load when starting up to about 1/2 time or disappear when the screen saver comes on. Any suggestions?

Any help is appreciated.

McAfee is one of the worst choice of protection that you could make and it is not enough to prove that your computer is free of viruses/malware. Go through the links I gave you. Regarding the image clearer, try to reinstall your video drivers.

Never get the drivers from Windows Update. Bring:

1. site of the device mftr. ; OR
2. site of the card mother mftr. If the material is on board; OR
3. website of the OEM manufacturer for your specific machine if you have a PC OEM (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the Web site where you get the drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. read all documentation that you got when you purchased the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, access the site Web of the OEM for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
3. download, install and run a program of inventory of the free system like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.

http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html - Belarc Advisor
http://www.gtopala.com/ - System Information for Windows

If this does not work, after return with what kind of computer you have - laptop, desktop, make and model.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then

  • Application window "minimized" and moves to the main screen when the screen saver is activated

    I'm under that WinVista Home Premium on an Intel based HP Pavilion.  I just upgraded (reluctantly) to IE 9 for IE 8 and as always seems inevitable, I'm having some problems with it.  Since that and I do not see how this is related to Internet Explorer, but when my screensaver active it causes open windows, Internet Explorer, MS Office and even my browser window Google Chrome to limit the size of the window.  I'm also using two monitors, and since the upgrade now open windows are moved my secondary monitor to the primary.  Before the upgrade to Internet Explorer, minimiseraient only windows MS Office (Excel, Word, etc.), no other applications, but they did not move to my main monitor.  They remained where I had them.  It's really annoying me and I can't locate any information on it.  The 'help' integrated within the Office is as useless as always.  I get closer really all that stuff from Microsoft of bagging and goes 100% with Google apps for eliminating my headaches.  It's my last ditch in order to get help from Microsoft.  I can not just take the frustration more.  I hope that someone out there cares enough and could have a resolution for me.  It would really make my week.

    Thank you in advance!

  • Sound and SoundChannel question when the screen is off

    Platform: AIR 3.8 on Andorid

    Classes: SoundChannel & Sound

    Background: I am writing an application that plays the songs one after another. I'm listening to the SoundChannel instance soundComplete event. When the current song is finished, it will create a new Sound object, the sound will then load a URL and play the next song. It worked fine when the application is activated.

    Question: when the application is reduced or if the screen is off, the next song will not be played. I have to switch him back to the app or turn on the screen, then the next song will be played automatically again. I don't know if it's because the of the SoundChannel object soundComplete event will not fire when the screen is off, or if it's because the Sound object doesn't start loading when the screen is off.

    Resolved by the update to version swf SDK 3.9 and export 11.9

  • App background stops when the screen turns off

    I wrote an Android app with a Service that receives events from the LocationService and the accelerometer and always try now to wear 10 BlackBerry. Tests on a Z10 STL100-2 10.1.0.4181

    Once the unit has remained unchanged for some time, the location listener is not registered, in order to save energy, and re-recorded a trip again.

    Don't worry, this can be disabled via the visible activity. But it must continue with the last State (start/stop) after the reboot.

    I even magically figured out how to add additional permissions for the manifest of BAR: "_sys_android_autostart_service" and "run_when_backgrounded".

    But as soon as the screen turns off, my application stops working. No location or accelerometer case being received. Turn on the display again, everything back to normal.

    It is meant to be a question about the accelerometer, but I could not find in the tracker.

    So my questions are:

    -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events location when the screen is off?

    -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events of accelerometer when the screen is off?

    -Will my service to continue to operate if more than 8 Apps began after mine? (And the user did not hit the close button)

    -The "headless" 10.2 mode help? (I currently only test with 10.1, because my service provider has not yet unlocked 10.2)

    -Finally, this would be possible with a native application? (I could port the port iOS... lots of fun...)

    Thank you very much for your help!

    PS: If it's of any interest: I use the plugin V1.6.1 Eclipse/ADT to package and install the bar.

    As reported here as well (and I'm sure in other places)

    http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/Android-runtime-development/accelerometer-turns-off-when-Scre...

    I'm working on a deal in the next version, similar to what we're doing with location requests (in other words, activate us the background mode if your app acquires a partial wake lock).

    Edit:

    So my questions are:

    -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events location when the screen is off?

    (Yes, but you must hold a wake lock).

    -Is it possible to port Android continue to receive events of accelerometer when the screen is off?

    (For the moment, no, but I'll change that, so it behaves like location.)  Mind you, this could be used to work on old revisions of the software until the native sensors team added a background of sensor mode which is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled).

    -Will my service to continue to operate if more than 8 Apps began after mine? (And the user did not hit the close button)

    (There are a lot of thing that matters if your Services happens to run or not, which is not limited to, but includes the number of applications already running and the status of the device memory).

    -The "headless" 10.2 mode help? (I currently only test with 10.1, because my service provider has not yet unlocked 10.2)

    (No, it's a native thing.  Your application is already technically without head)

  • How to disable the screen saver when you watch videos in full screen in firefox?

    This only happens with Firefox, other browsers videos play normally and without interruption. I want to keep my window screen saver by default but not when watching full-screen mode.

    The Flash Player plugin must normally block the system to go to sleep, reduce the brightness of the display or go to the screen saver when you are using full-screen. It is strange that you have this problem with Flash.

    There are workaround solutions such as the use of an add-on or an external program that simulates the movement of your mouse, but those who really shouldn't be necessary.

    VLC, I don't know.

    Furthermore, you closed and restarted Windows because this problem first occurred? Just in case where some component shared Windows crashed.

    I deleted two e-mail accounts in mail on my iMac (El Capitan). I have reinstalled the first without problem. When I tried the second, I got an error message that the account already exists. Any suggestions?

    First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

    From the Mail menu bar, you select

    ▹ Connection Doctor window

    In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

    Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

  • Bluetooth freezes when the screen turns off

    Having a problem with the Bluetooth on my pre. I coupled it with a Plantronics Voyager 855. Initial pairing works very well, but after the screen on the pre turns off, the connection goes bad. When I turn the screen back on, the Bluetooth application on the phone always displays the connected headset, but it is not. If I try to play music, there is no sound, and if a call comes in, I can hear the person on the phone, and not on the helmet.

    About 30-45 seconds after the screen turns off, I hear the high tone of the headset which means that it has lost connection. I don't think that the headset is bad. It worked very well with my previous phone.

    If I have music when the screen turns off, the connection is very good. It's like, when there is no active communication between the phone and the headset, and the screen turns off, the bluetooth on the phone goes into a blocked State. I can restore the connection by turning off bluetooth on the phone and then on again. It reconnects to the helmet, until the next time the screen turns off.

    I tried this to get a better idea of the problem...

    If I remove helmet > disable bluetooth phone > turn on bluetooth on the phone > put the headset in pairing mode, it pairs fine.

    If I remove helmet > disable bluetooth phone > turn on bluetooth on the phone > turn off the screen > wait 45 sec > turn on the screen > put the headset in pairing mode, then it does not.

    Again, it is like turning off the screen causes the bluetooth of the phone hang. Given that the screen turns off fairly quickly, I basically disable bluetooth phone and back on every time I want to use it.

    Any thoughts?

    My problem is solved.  Turns out that I had a defective unit.  He traded last night, and it works fine now.  Got the yellow box this time.  First of all, we had the black cover.

    The swap was a little complicated.  I bought in a store of absolute Wireless in Garner, North Carolina.  It is a reseller of third party.  They did it to a Sprint service center to have a technician "certify" the default before they would replace it by car through the city.  And of course, the service center couldn't do the replacement, so I had to go back through the city to the point of purchase after they certified it.  Best of all, the procedure of "certification" involved explaining the problem to the technician for about a minute, she agreed with me that it was malfunctioned and his writing his employee with the ID on the back of a business card to bring back me to the first shop.  She has not yet turn the phone on itself.  She said pretty much the guy to the absolute Wireless has been a * beep * by sending me to it in the first place b/c, we could just do this by phone.  PITA BREAD.  But I suppose it is, that's what I to do not buy directly from Sprint.
