Monitor issue - gray area in the middle of the display indicating "AutoConfig please wait."

Original title: monitor question

Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

Ideas: I have an Acer monitor with my computer.  A gray box appears frequently in the middle of the display indicating "AutoConfig please wait."  This happens while I'm in the middle of a document or research online.  What could be the cause of this and how to fix this?  I am running Windows Vista.

Hello

·        Since when are you facing this problem?

·        Remember to make changes to the system?

This problem occurs mainly due to the graphics card which is present on the system, in simple terms, the graphics card try to adjust the resolution of the screen on the computer for better display.

    Hello

    It's actually a compiled response someone put in place and I would attribute it - but I forgot where I copied it... such is the "internets"...

    At any rate, this describes your situation. It shows where the key is to Office and Windows and how to tell the difference. You don't mention which key you were talking about, so it covers all the basics:

    "1. you just installed Office in a retail box you just bought?  If Yes, go to control panel, programs and features programs and see if there is another copy of Office installed in addition to the suite that you have just installed.  Some pre-installed trial Office 2007 suites may conflict with the product key validation process.  If you see a copy of Office installed, then uninstall it and try to run your new new Office program.  Chances are that your product key now works.
    2. If you use the 25-digit product key that you found on a sticker on the bottom of your laptop or on the back of your desktop, then you are using the wrong key.  This key is the product key for the Windows operating system and NOT for the Office Suite.  The correct product key for the Office suite will be in one of these places:
    a. within the Cabinet Office 2007 (if you purchased Office in a retail store)
    b. inside an e-mail on the site online where you purchased Office
    c outside of the CD, on a sticker
     
    Microsoft has an article in the knowledge base that goes more in depth in the scenario of valid product key.  It is located at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/836178 and would be a good place to go if the instructions above do not resolve your problem.

  • Flow of work presentation action causes the "presentation presentation processing, please wait."

    I have a workflow with a string field I want to offer as a dropdown of the results of a SQL database. I created an action to query data that is passed to a value of SQL: Database. The action script is below to:

    Queries on MGMTDB

    var results = new Array();

    var SingleResult;

    var query = 'SELECT TemplateOS, TemplateVersion FROM TableName';

    var QueryResults = MGMTDB.readCustomQuery (query);

    for each (QueryResults SingleResult)

    {

    model var = SingleResult.getProperty ("TemplateOS") + "" + SingleResult.getProperty ("TemplateVersion");

    System.Debug ("getTemplateNames:" + model);

    Results.push (template);

    }

    return results;

    However, as soon as I add the action to a property of presentation, the work flow forever "presentation of treatment." The action itself works fairly quickly. I've added it to a workflow of test as part of his scheme, and I retrieve the table desired channels instantly. It is only when it is used for the presentation he gives me a problem.

    Anyone has any ideas, what happens?

    This field is then used to calculate other areas? The issue may be that when first load your presentation can try to calculate the fields using entries zero. One way to avoid mistakes is to test the input null in every action parameters and returns the null value.

  • HP c309a complete commissioning. It turns on and the window says if please wait but does not start

    My HP c309a recently started giving me starting problems. We moved and I had to set up my office at home again. I thought that all I had to do was just plug everything back into the wall and use it, but now whenever I turn on the printer, I get a message on his window please wait while it starts, but nothing happens after that. I can leave it on for hours at a time to start completely, but it won't work. My control panel shows the printer installed and that it appears on my wireless network, but if I try to print something it says the printer is offline. The printer just freezes at startup and it reset by disconnecting the power source does nothing. I even tried to delete and reinstall it with the usb cable but that did not work or the other. Can someone help me?

    OK, let's reset the printer: turn the power off, press and hold # and 6 keys on the printer all in a little after I turn it back on.

    Hello

    Here's the follow up:

    -You cannot restore your files once the HARD drive goes 'bad '. You can try to start the computer by using a few Linux based Live rescue CD, but chances are very small

    -You can not restore factory default before replacing the HARD drive as the old is defective. You must insert a new and then restore because the information is indeed stored on the HARD drive (new)

    -If you know how and where you can event the same HDD - manufacturer 678312-002

    If this is not the case, just use some as suggested above and as explained in the guide Service and Maitanance.

  • Configuration automatic please wait blinks on the screen every few seconds, why?

    Hi YvetteBarnes,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. What is the version of Windows installed on the computer?

    3. What is the number of brand and model of the computer graphics card?

    The error message occurs generally if there is a problem with the monitor adapter or graphics on the computer.

    Method 1

    I suggest that you change the resolution of the screen on the computer and check if the problem persists.

    Change your screen resolution

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-your-screen-resolution

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then you need to update drivers graphics card on the computer manually by visiting the card manufacturer's Web site and check if it works.

    Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

    If the problem persists, then connect another monitor to the computer and check if it works.

    I hope this helps!

  • Two monitors - I can't change "use this device as the primary monitor" because both are grayed.

    I just put my laptop (1) and (2) monitor to use together.  I like being a primary monitor (2) would monitor the "use this device as the primary monitor' however are grayed out.  I tried several things but cannot get to work.  Any suggestions? I am on Windows 7

    Hello, Olivia,.

    It depends on how you have the monitor Setup.

    You can get this option only when you select extend monitor instead of select two copies.

    If you want to set primary and secondary monitors, you must select the Extend monitors.

    For more information, see the article:

  • Satellite M70-151 - line gray portrait in the middle of the screen

    Hello

    Since a few days of view, I have a problem with my laptop, Satellite M 70-151.

    There is a vertical line (dark gray) in the middle of the screen... It appeared when I used microsoft word.
    At first I thought that it is just an error display or something... but after a reboot, it was still there... so I tried reinstalling display drivers...
    other drivers to install the display, but it did not help anything. The line is not as visible on a screen... It is always in the same place on the screen

    so I think that it cannot be that the material... the screen itself, but I was always very carefully with Notepad.

    my warranty ran out 5 months ago... do anyone know what I can do now?
    Don't know how to fix :(

    (sry for my bad English)

    In my opinion, it's certainly a hardware problem. I am not sure, but it must be malfunction of the display. To confirm this test with external monitor. If the desktop without this gray line certainly display problem.

    How to solve it? You can live with it or the display must be exchanged. Also, there are not many possibilities. You can contact the authorized service provider to see how much the repair will be fresh, or you can try to view an opportunity (e.g. eBay). The second option is cheaper but without maintenance manuals, you should not disassemble the laptop on your own.
