  • What is the setting on a laptop to be able to close the cover when you are connected to a monitor?

    After a catastrophic situation on my laptop, I got the disc re formatted and reloaded a new operating system.

    I'm trying to rebuild.

    Previously, I had the configuration of the laptop so that when I closed the lid, it remained running so I can use my external monitor.

    Now when I close the lid, the laptop switches mode pause.

    I know there is a place to set up, but I'm not.

    Thank you

    This requires that you are under W7.

    Go to "Control Panel" and find "Power Options."

    In the left column, find "closing the cover to choose."

    Hi Newgirl11,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    We don't have much information about the compatibility of the game with Windows 7, you can see the link below.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/enus/search.aspx?type=software&s=family%20feud

    To work around the problem, you can try to install the game in compatibility mode and check if it works very well.

    To run the troubleshooting program compatibility Troubleshooter

    1. Open the program compatibility problems by clicking on the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.
    2. Follow the instructions contained in the resolution of the problems.

    If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

  • ActionScript 3 several buttons to open child SWFs can be able to close the child in the child

    Here's the scenario... I have an image on the stage that has several elements that have hot/links on them that should open a child swf above the background and display the details of the items. then have a button in the child swf itself which abducts the child more of the background so that the user can click on another etc. I found this code in the message from someone and I'm trying to change that works for several swf files... He currently works for a single swf. I have a wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the button referent. But I can't understand it. Here is the code I use on stage

    If I understand your question, you should try this:

    var biorequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest (e.target.name + ".swf");

  • How do I close the last tab when restore last session setting is turned on?

    There are times, when I have several tabs open at the same time, when I want to turn off the computer and would like to see these tabs next time when I run Firefox.
    However sometimes also would like to be able to close the last tab and with that 1) closing of Firefox 2) ' close the session' as when I restart Firefox, the default home page greets me, while restoring session last still in activity.

    This future change is good knowledge and bitter to acknowledge, but it was not what I was looking for. (In practice, I need something, that automaticaally a click that, when they are available and makes unavailable, when for example, I press Ctrl + W on the last tab.)
    I just realized, on my cell plu I made Facebook an app - tab, so I could close the last non-app-tab and exit firefox, and next time, the start page was there with the Facebook tab as well. I remember also, that in the pre-Firefox 4 (maybe) it was the default behavior, right?

    Also I was using this: https://addons.mozilla.org/hu/firefox/addon/session-manager/ but a new computer should come with a blank page, and also I forgot about it.

    Probably what I really need, is when I run Firefox, the start page will be always the first tab seen.

    Thanks anyway, and I take the responses 'not possible '.

    Edit: Actually the function of what I was looking for was available in the plugin I mentioned.

  • New computer laptop freeze after power connection (there is a delay, not immediately)

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with my laptop Fujitsu Amilo Li 3710 newly purchased. When I plug the power while the computer is turned on, it would freeze completely (no movement of the cursor or keyboard) I put off and then back on to fix. Often, but not always.

    But I realized that this isn't an instant freeze, because the laptop starts to load and changes the brightness of the screen according to the Power Options before the frost. So I guess it's not a motherboard problem.

    I disabled the battery in the Device Manager if the system will not recognize AC battery operation, the problem disappeared. But it won't let me see the remaining battery charge.

    My installation of Windows is fully updated. It's the SP2 of Vista Ultimate x 64.

    What can we do?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Thank you for your answer, but I'm sure this isn't a hardware problem because I think I found the culprit who is "State of the PCI Express link" in Power Options that should be set to OFF.
    In addition, the laptop NOT Batt-AC swtich successfully, but when he FOLLOWS the rules Power Options, it freezes.

    Scenario:
    Charger plugged in,
    Battery charges,
    Changes in screen brightness,
    Gel.

    If it's a hardware problem, he would certainly like:
    Charger plugged in,
    FREEZE (as the power glitch will take effect so little time before dealing with the brightness etc...)

    Again, so far, the "State of the PCI Express link" seems have solved the problem.

    Any other explanation or the info is welcome from all over the world.

    Bouquet,

    Great to hear that your problem is finally solved.

    Regarding 2nd query you have raised, it is not possible to have the program running if you turn OFF the computer (it's like saying you want the bulb to keep bright despite off). When stop you the machine, you turn off the power... so there is no way that the current state maintained. When start the computer again the next time it starts on new.

    But there are 2 options that can help you with your problem: -.

    1 SAVE your changes before you close the program, and choose next time when you start the computer

       File ->Open (This way your work is preserved and you need not start afresh next time onwards)
    

    2. instead of turning off the computer, choose to Hibernate. When Hibernate you (and NOT CLOSE) the current state is preserved. This means that if you leave the notebook running he will remain in the same State when you next start your computer the next time.

    PS: as this forum is for the FF to discuss related issues, I propose that for further assistance e-mail me at my personal mail ID [email protected]' rather than discuss it here on this forum

    Now your problem is solved with kindness mark this as closed discussion (marking/choice of appropriate solution helped you)

  • Why is there a setting duplicate when I create a file pfile from spfile on a DB of RAC?

    Hello world

    I ran ORACHK on a 11g (11.2.0.4) database RAC and one of the results shows "check no input parameter in the init.ora (spfile) database duplicate" that I generated a pfile from two of the database file and the following repeated, I saw:

    (BD1)

    amagua2.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    amagua1.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    amagua2.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    amagua1.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    (BD2)

    * .db_16k_cache_size = 1610612736

    METRO1.db_16k_cache_size = 2147483648

    METRO2.db_16k_cache_size = 2147483648

    I don't know why this happens, in BD2 when I select the setting of $ v that I see the greatest value, which was the last one I assigned to the parameter, so I don't know why the lower value appears in my file pfile.

    in BD1 two lines appear just a copy with the same value.

    I would fix this, any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    amagua2.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    amagua1.__streams_pool_size = 536870912

    This is because Oracle manages the size of the SGA on its own. Either you MEMORY_TARGET or SGA_TARGET value. Oracle wrote its flow Pool size in the SPFILE so that when the instance is started, it can resume with that component SGA size to its last known value, based on the workload of your application. It is curious to see the two sets, and I have no idea why. But you can always delete the duplicate entries and re-create the SPFILE.

    (BD2)

    * .db_16k_cache_size = 1610612736

    METRO1.db_16k_cache_size = 2147483648

    METRO2.db_16k_cache_size = 2147483648

    In the case above, you have a set specifically for the METRO1 instance. And another parameter specifically for instance METRO2. The higher setting is global for all cases, unless the instance-specific setting would be substitute one world. If you have only two instances, then the global is not much until you add a third instance.

    Now for Oracle RAC... it is normally a good idea to have all the instances with the same cache size setting. It is rare that there is a good reason for instance1 to have a different value than instance2. In addition, if you use TAF and/or want a second instance to support connections over the failover of the first instance, then you want your LMS components sized so as to be able to manage not only the current work load, but the additional workload due to the failure of the instance.

    See you soon,.

  • I am not able to change the video quality for you tube. There are only two options 360 and Auto. Please help me.

    Hi I am experiencing strange problem for 15 to 20 days and I am not able to change the video quality for you tube. There are only two options 360 and Auto. Help me please if you can because I have a slow internet connection and I want to play video at 240, as it was before. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Could check you whether YouTube is to serve its HTML5 player or the player based on Flash? If you right click on the drive, short a context menu should appear. If the full Firefox context menu is displayed, press and release the ALT key to erase that. The last line of the menu short usually indicates which player he is.

    I'll assume HTML5 because...

    On Windows 7, Firefox should show a wide range of formats in the HTML5 player. However, if some of the features of media are disabled, preventing video MP4 decoding, then YouTube offers only 360 p (with WebM coding).

    If you have intentionally disabled Media Foundation and/or DirectShow in topic: config, then perhaps you would prefer to use the YouTube Flash Player? There are a few Add-ons that can force YouTube to serve you a Flash drive. Either of them will do, you don't need both:

  • I want to see my tabs at the top all the time. Is there a setting for this?

    It seems in my new version of Firefox 40.0.3 that I can't see the tabs at the top at all times. They disappear until I have fly over the top of the screen and they then they reappear. Some of my work requires that I see when the browser tab is over, loading or to update and it is not possible when the tab is not displayed. Is there a setting that I can choose to make the tabs of the browser stay visible at all times? Thanks for all the ideas.

    Looks like you committed inadvertently mode full screen.

  • When you use the webmail of juno in Firefox, forward and answers put the original message as an attachment sent. Different in Internet Explorer. Is there a setting to change?

    I have an old e-mail account in juno, which is accessible from "E-mail from Juno on the Web". When I try to reply or forward an email from there, the original text of e-mail is crammed into a "deflected" with a note attachment in response or has transmitted the text to see the attachment. I would prefer that the original text be included in the reply or forwarded text rather than an attachment. If I access IE juno webmail, it does what I want by introducing the original in the response text / transmitted. I don't know if this behaviour is juno or Firefox, but I am unable to find a frame in one or the other to change.

    Juno help page on it is a bit confusing: Juno Email on the Web - Mails sent as an attachment.

    Juno does no intentional difference between browsers, but some sites offer various different browser vendors. This can be especially true of old sites created using ActiveX controls, which are the property of IE. Or Juno could have stopped updating the site and he would not be able to process the version for Firefox two-digit numbers.

    It might be possible to test this practice with a free account (http://www.juno.com/freeemail), but it would take me a few days.
