Microsoft games, for example, Solitaire, flicker and gel.

I checked the AMD graphics driver and the system tells me that the last update is installed.

I am wary to try advanced solutions, as I'm not clued up technically and lest I can corrupt or mess up something else.

I did a system restore and a clean boot but no change. All obvious checks tell me that the drivers are OK and there is no problem.

As far as I can see the problem only occurs with Microsoft, Solitaire, FreeCell, Spider Solitaire and Chess Titans games.

How can I cure this?

Hi John,.

I suggest you run a sfc scan and check if a system file is corrupt.

The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions. When the analysis is complete, the System File Checker tool indicates whether integrity violations were found. If integrity violations are detected, the System File Checker tool difficulty integrity violations. Go through the article and run sfcscan on the computer.

Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7 system files

  • Is it possible to get the details of the file (for example the subject and comments) off the screen and to an Excel file or a text file without having to retype this information

    Is it possible to get the details of the file (for example the subject and comments) off the screen and to an Excel file or a text file without having to retype this information

    * original title - file details *.

    Hello

    Could you explain what is exactly? What do you mean by off the screen?

    According to my way of thinking, you want to export the file details of all your files on your HARD drive to an excel file or a txt file. If I'm right in this case, it is not possible to export the details of each & every file in the excel sheet.

  • Windows 7 SP1 w/IE 11 freezes, slow performance with switching webpages, downloads, games run very slowly and when to play simple games (for example, CandyCrush Saga) it ignores the graphics and music.

    I have an older Toshiba Satellite laptop I found that, after buying new laptops, I return to my only older because of its speed of travel from site to site, download and never had any problems with games.  I was running Windows 7 Home Edition, IE 9.

    About a year ago, I decided to upgrade my Windows 7 Home Edition to Windows 7 Professional and updated my browser IE 11.  Laptop still has a large.

    Then about 6 months ago I started to receive messages when you enter a Web site that I need to install Flash Player to view the page.  I checked my modules and Shockwave or Flash Player have been activated and would download it again to display the Web site (which I had already visited several times without any problems).  This has happened on several different sites.  Then I started to receive messages that I needed to upgrade my IE8 browser to a newer version.  I checked HELP to make sure that I still installed IE11 and I did it, I started getting these messages more often then I went to the aid of Microsoft Office on what to do if your Web pages telling you to upgrade.  Basically, IE11 is reset or uninstall IE11.  Reset is not good so I tried the method of reinstallment.  I uninstalled IE11, went to the download page for Microsoft IE11 and proceeds to download IE11.

    I saw a message that I couldn't download IE11 because I need to Windows 7 SP1 or later or Windows server 2008.  Then, I went to Microsoft requirements for the installation of Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 and follow-up procedures one (i.e., uninstall Adobe Acrobet, disabling Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender and firewall, etc.) and after the installation of SP1 for Windows 7, followed all procedures to know what to do after the installation of SP1.  Downloaded all the updates (which were more than 120) restarted and was satisfied with fluent how my laptop worked once more.

    After a week, I noticed my phone to talk more and more to load pages and would begin to get Windows Explorer "unresponsive".  It started with almost everything I opened and I tried to edit Web pages or click icon to redirect me to another window, I kept receiving "not responding".  Rose (Microsoft), what to do and monitoring tools to try to fix the problem.  Initially, the problem was to find for a few hours, then starting upwards.  After a few days, my laptop almost took 30-45 seconds to switch between the tabs or windows.  After a search through questions and answers in the Microsoft community and Microsoft Web pages, the bottom line was reinstall Windows 7 SP1.

    Yet once, uninstalled and reinstalled Windows 7 SP1 and again ran perfect for a few days.  I turned on computer laptop yesterday and noticed that it took a long time for the upcoming Windows logo and has a black screen for a few seconds before the logo appears.  Of course, out of nowhere, I went to IE clicked icon and took forever to get to Yahoo (which is my predefined Web page).  Each page, I'm going to again is freezing, "not responding" and very slow operation.

    It is so frustrating because I added not all programs at all.  I am running IE11, Microsoft Security Essentials, and that's all. Outside of Windows Defender, firewall, Explorer, Media player, etc..  Microsoft Security Essentials (I did a full scan) has detected no viruses whatsoever and I 264 GB 285 GB free on my C: drive.  Therefore, there is no problem with the free space.  I have deleted the old files, temp files, analyzed and defragmented my hard drive and am just lost as to what is the cause.  All my drives are underway and have no conflict with all devices.  If I go down my Windows Professional so I will not be able to download anything higher than IE9.  I love IE11 and am happy with Win 7 SP1 if only he would stay longer than 3 or 4 working days.

  • BSOD for example fltmgr.sys and mpfilter.sys problems

    Windows XP SP3 with WD EBook. Six of these BSOD but four is the file names. Took photographs of screens and include addresses if necessary.

    Very slow computer at startup. Have defragmented.

    MSE cited 4 serious errors after the complete analysis, but 2 BSOD occurred after that.

    If I use CCleaner for example, the startup list is empty but of course I have XP Services, commissioning.

    You have a lot of startup items associated with Skype, camera things, things of picture, etc.  I have a lot of this stuff installed too, but I do not operate all day and did not load at startup, but I'm not really a social networker - but there are other things in there, you can just get rid of.  Some people 'need' to all this stuff running all the time, I want to just my stuff running on request.

    Do this first...

    You should time your startup before making changes, you can see what happens when you make adjustments.  Can I get paid $1 for every second I can take a time to start (up to $50).   To be paid, I would say here, this is the time and here is the time after.  If your startup time increases, there is no charge!

    I think I could just take a system in the back room of an hour or two, doing nothing, give it back to the person and they said: Yes - it's much faster (psychologically)!   So I like to measure things.

    Here, it of a good free tool to use to measure your startup time which do not install anything, so use it to see what your startup time is now, and then make some adjustments (not too all at once) and run it again.  You will also have a bar chart nice so you can see which takes a newspaper from time to start and then decide if you really need it loading or not:

    BootlogXP:
    http://www.Greatis.com/utilities/bootlogxp/

    Your entire system up to automatically connect (if it isn't already) so it not there no human component involved in your start-up schedule (that part test first make sure that XP connects you automatically), run Bootvis and it will ask to restart and be patient because it works, then it will give you a pretty bar graph and the total boot time so you can write it (or print).  What are all those big horizontal lines in the graph and that she takes as much time and do you really need them?   Note too few of them.

    With the help of CCleaner, disable (do not remove) for example, the automatic update of Java and the automatic Adobe Updater:

    "C:\Program Files\Common Java Update\jusched.exe SunJavaUpdateSched

    Adobe ARM "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\ARM\1.0\AdobeARM.exe

    I know that I can run the Java and Adobe update manually once a month or so if I want and they will check the updates in any case whenever I use them is not necessary so they are from every time that my system restarts and runs throughout the day to do nothing.

    After adjustments, BootlogXP run again and see if there is an improvement in time of start of total and if so, in what order.

    There are a few other things in there that I could get rid of, but let's start with these two first - and now you also have a way to measure (at least the time of your startup) things instead of thinking, it might be faster maybe...

  • Problems with the UI Flash CC. Mainly, I can't click on some buttons and textboxes on different modal windows. (for example. Scale and rotate the sound properties.

    Hello

    I was wondering if anyone else has problems of this kind. I basically only to find a bunch of different buttons, fields and the tabs do not respond to my clicks. This seems to be spread throughout the application.

    I had to work around most of this by using the tab and arrow keys to navigate around the modal buttons and fields... but it's a bit of a pain.

    There are certain parts of the interface that are not accessible via the tabs and the arrow keys... for example tab ActionScript in the Sounds Properties window... There is no way to do that... and by clicking on the tab itself does nothing, although I can see that the rollover of the tab State is enabled.

    I ended up having to run Flash CS6 in order to define the classes of the export of audio files, and it's a major pain.

    Interface issues similar user exist with other things... for example, the color picker (eyedropper) seems to choose colors near, but not directly under him.

    I'll be honest... I'm running on Windows 7... Via boot camp on a Mac Book Pro with the retina display... so questions could come from this combination. However... Flash CS6 has these questions... so I can only think that it is a matter of Flash CC.

    I appreciate any input you can provide. (Although the obvious 'it on OSX rather run' or "just use CS6" are not the kind of responses I'm looking for.) I have my reasons for installation. )

    Thank you.

    Cheerfully,.

  • I don't have an Xbox how to stop W8 asking me to log in for every single game I want to play - for example solitaire

    As in the title, I'm frustrated

    Why people can't answer the question!  You did not an alternative, to avoid your problem, you asked how to fix it!  And then offering suggestions that MIGHT help, but don't have, instead of those who actually do help, are simply misleading.

    You CAN get this problem go away, but you have to jump through a hoop stupid Microsoft so he could get out.  This problem has been plaguing me as well.  I wanted to JUST PLAY MY GOOD OLD WINDOWS 7 Solitaire and he lead me through all this heartache and I found myself here, with this problem too.

    (Microsoft needs to do much more research on their 'Intuitive Interface' for Windows 8 and to know how to get people to change correctly, without irritating the and taking away things).

    To get rid of this irritating problem, you must connect using your Microsoft Account (aka (also known as) Windows Live ID and many other names), create your account to XBox games, using the application of XBOX games.

    1. start the application of green 'games', which should be on your home screen by default subway, if you have not deleted.  It has a white XBox onto the green square controller.

    2. once the app is running in the upper right, just like in the application Microsoft Solitaire Collections, it must be a bond of connection that you can click on sign in.  Use your Windows account to connect.

    Once you have your Xbox account connected games, it will assign you a generic username to your Xbox account.  You have not actually to have a XBox game system to have a XBox to Windows 8 gaming account.  (You can create an avatar for your account to XBox game while you are connected, but didn't get off upwards by Microsoft again like I did when you click on your avatar and wonder what to do next.)  Once you choose your avatar, you must (unintuitively) click the checkbox under the avatar to actually select.)

    3. from the start of Metro screen, click Microsoft Solitaire Collection app (assuming that you added it there.)

    4. Note that the Collection of Microsoft Solitaire has always tried to automatically sign in to the account of the XBox to start games.  Because we had not set up the account of XBox games, he irritated with this annoying authentication window whenever we simply wanted to play.  It should now connect automatically and is more to annoy you with this authentication window.

    Here's another darkened tip, 'logout' of the XBox games account, in the case where you were wondering too how, but not could not intuitively determine how from the intuitive interface:

    "Logout" of the Xbox games follow these steps:

    a. open the splash screen Xbox games.

    b. press Windows key + C , and then select settings.

    c. Select accounts and you'll get an option to disconnect.

    d. click on Disconnect.

  • In a wreath of two screens Thunderbolt, I could replace the first display with a (for example) 2012 iMac and use target Display Mode to power the two?

    My Thunderbolt screens have the possibility to be connected in Garland and get their signal on a single cable Thunderbolt, an iMac in target Display Mode should not also have this capability? Is an iMac in target Display Mode capable of simulating a Thunderbolt Display not only to get a video for himself but also for a Thunderbolt Display is connected?

    I've heard tell that some people used their iMac screen target with the target Display Mode while the iMac has been connected to another monitor (not a Thunderbolt Display).

    The result was that internal display of the iMac switched on the target Display Mode, but doesn't have the monitor connected.

    I haven't found someone who has tried this and published his experience with a Thunderbolt Display connected to the iMac.

    Unfortunately, a little more research would have responded and answered my question.

    Yes, I can replace one of the Thunderbolt screens in the chain with an iMac. Replaced screen should be one that is not directly connected to the mac of the source.
