I checked the system, apparently the mouse works fine. The games are very slow to download, and it is almost impossible to play because the mouse is so slow.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.
Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

My resolution continues to go too low and it is very difficult to read the screen
I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY RESOLUTION-IT IS TOO LOW AND WILL NOT CHANGE
I went to the Windows Update Catalog and typed in "video drivers" and he gave me 958 choices on 39 pages and I wonder where is should I choose - or should I just try them one at a time?
It's usually stupid to accept any peripheral material updated from Microsoft - driver unless you want problems.
You should always get your device updated the driver from your hardware manufacturer.
As the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, we don't know anything about your system.
Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.
If you answer these questions, someone (perhaps a useful MSE or FM) can see what the details of your system and what your video drivers installed and may direct you to a place better if the drivers must be updated.
Try not to use your caps lock when responding. Type uppercase is considered screaming and you don't need to be yelling again.
Provide information on your system, the better you can:
What is your system brand and model?
What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?
Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..
If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?
Now talk us a little about your hardware:
Click Start, run and enter in the box:
Msinfo32
Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the information here.
For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.
There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.
This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

One of the computer in our office could not start. After all troubleshooting - I ended up doing the reinstallation of the OS - but the thumbnail of my product key at the bottom of the laptop is so blurry. Can I call Microsoft and get the free product key exchange?
No, they will not offer it. How can they prove that you are entitled to it?
Recovery plant, using the partition HD or the manufacturer disks you generated when you 1st got the laptop do not require a key, because it's built. Some manufacturers may provide this disk set at a cost.
Very rarely the manufacturers will be keeping a record of the key that they provided with the laptop and that provide a proof of purchase.

I don't remember now whether or not this occurred after an upgrade. First of all, I noticed on routard.com and thought it was specific to this site. But it seems to be that way on many sites. Maybe it has something to do with the version of coding on some sites? I don't have a problem to read email on yahoo.com however.
The Firefox Page Zoom feature makes a domain level by area to save favorite settings level users zoom, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox, as with some other browsers.

Original title: need assistance to restore the appearance of the desktop icons and the taskbar clock
Don't know if it's something I've done or what, but all of a sudden the desktop on my laptop Dell icons are little greyed out - they are still useable but difficult to read.
At the same time, the clock in the taskbar is the same way - white letters on a gray background - very difficult to read.
Can anyone help? I'm not very savvy computer so need to very simple instructions.
I currently have Windows 8 and am installing 8.1
Thank you

Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.
