Multi-monitor (PCoIP) and Windows 7

Greetings,

We try to test 2 months see 4 but one of the problems is that when trying to connect to a virtual from Windows 7 computer in mode multiscreen we get just black 2 screens and after a few seconds that it disconnects and View Client closes.

Anyone who manages to get multi-screen working for Windows 7 clients? I tried to increase the memory to 128 MB vram.

Multimonitor works without any problem when you connect to a Windows XP client.

Thanks in advance,

Bram

I had exactly the same problem and it is resolved.  You can read the complete demo that I did here:

http://communities.VMware.com/blogs/gunnarb/2010/01/26/PCoIP-review

However, the quick answer is: uninstall vmware tools, uninstall agent from view of the guest operating system.  Reinstall the tools then agent.  See if you can connect to the base image (we're not done linked clones).  Also, everything I care at this point is that you get a single monitor to work.

Once you can connect to Windows 7 with a single monitor, go into Device Manager to uninstall your graphics driver and replace this drive with the driver found SVGA C:\program files\common files\vmware\drivers do not use the pilot of MCDA.  With the SVGA driver in place, you will get multi-monitor support.  Also it will fix the annoying UAC question and issues of screen saver.

A problem with this solution is that it is not supported and has experienced problems with BSOD, but you get a multi-monitor VM work.  Once you have all that in place, go ahead and do your linked clone stuff.

  • Touch the touch screen moves the cursor appear on another monitor in a multi-monitor for Windows 7 system

    There are three 3 monitors on this system. Two of them are the screens LCD Dell 2407WFP-HC and one is the touchscreen Acer T230H. Dell monitors are connected to a NVIDIA Quadro FX3500 and identify as monitors 1 and 2. The Acer monitor is connected to a NVIDIA GeForce 7600GS and identifies as monitor 3. The system runs Windows 7 Ultimate x 64, with updates. Everything works fine except for the touch screen feature.

    According to the instructions I used the Tablet PC configuration to configure the touch screen. In the installation program, reports monitor 2 Dell incorrectly as having entered touch available and the Acer monitor 3 reports as not having NOT available - also incorrect enter key.

    When I touch the Acer screen, the cursor appears on the monitor Dell 2 and moves according to the movement of my finger on the Acer screen.

    1. Go to the control panel and search for "Touch".
    2. Click on 'The Tablet PC settings'
    3. Click on "Setup"... "right" configure your stylus and touch displays.
    4. Choose "enter." »
    5. Press the 'Enter' key until you see the instructions displayed on your actual touchscreen.  Tap the screen and it will say something like "press ENTER to move to the next step.

    You should now see your contact to events (and mouse) are displayed on the touch screen when you... Well, touch.

  • Resource monitor shows Windows 7 and Windows Vista running different programs

    I followed my programs and other at quite a bit lately since my system hangs and is running more slowly.  I'm trying to understand what might be causing this. I only had Windows 7 loaded on this desktop computer, as I bought it.  However, today I noticed that in the resource monitor to the title of the CPU that Windows 7 is the context of the operating system for some programs and Windows Vista is the context of operating system for other programs (including programs based Apple).  Is this a problem? Could it be added to some of my slowness and crashes?

    This indicates the operating system, the program has been designed to target. If the application does not specify this in its manifesto, it is assigned to a context of Vista. This has been added in Windows 7 that allows new applications to benefit from new features, while older applications continue to work on the former.

  • How to monitor the process and Windows activities

    Hello world

    I'm a player who plays full-screen. Some process or app steals focus once every few hours, unpredictable. This me tabs effectively out of my game on the desktop. It is only an annoyance, but yet, it's a real nuisance to do without good reason.

    Anything that flies focus leaves no trace of what it was, as far as I can tell. I'm just at the level of the office. (Exactly how I see what Win7 thinks has focus, if nothing seems?)

    I guess it's a thread that checks the updates, or some other thing, what has been written amateur and does well with games. Some games are also poorly written in terms of, what happens if something else could mess with the office or ask for focus. My guess is that it is a collision of stuff poorly written, but who knows.

    To make a long story short, is there anything I can do to see just how * had * focus (focus on the past), even if it's over now?

    I highly doubt that it is one of the major applications that I am running. I usually only Word and Excel 2013, Chrome and Windows Explorer to the top. I really doubt that this is one of them, but maybe. Who knows.

    It would be very difficult to test for that is happening, because it is very unpredictable. Also real inconvenient to keep my other applications closed for hours. This is why I ask if there is another way to catch the culprit himself, not all turn in everything.

    Thanks if you can help!

    HI Yann,

    Thanks to you, I was able to use the event viewer on Win7 / Windows Logs / request to see that I was being thrown out of my game on the desktop when the so-called SelfServicePlugin.exe "on the road". I checked in the Task Manager / process and saw that it is a Citrix Receiver background utility.

    Citrix Receiver (v. 4.1.0.56461, (c) 2013) is the remote software we use to open a session in our local network of work at home, however, the plugin is something all the time, not just at the point where it is actually using Citrix. I guess that it speeds up the loading time of Citrix, or whatever. (It seems that every piece of software must have a connection online if used or not, these days.) And no, I wasn't playing games when remoting to work, laughing. As I said, the receiver is there all the time; I was spilled on the desk in the evenings, etc.

    If I unload the plugin, I stop unexpectedly, the abandonment of game (and Citrix always starts very well).

    So, apparently, it is just this sloppily written plugin. I guess it is not surprising that something related to work don't care effect on the games, even after hours, laughing.

    Now that I know what it is - and it's not malware - it's so much easier to deal with.

    Thanks for hanging in there and answering the question directly to me! It helped a ton.

  • See 4.5 true multi-monitor with RDP7?

    I read this in the guide of the administrator on the page 17: ' Microsoft RDP provides the following features: you can use more than one monitor in span mode '

    and this page 21:

    In a real session of multiple monitors, monitors can have sizes and different resolutions, and a monitor can be

    has rotated. If you enlarge within an application window, the window expands to the full-screen only the monitor

    that contains it.

    This feature has the following limitations:

    n the maximum number of monitors that lets you view a desktop is 10 If you are using the RDP Protocol

    view the Protocol and 4 If you are using PCoIP.

    n If you are using the Microsoft RDP display protocol, you must have Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection (RDC)

    version 6.0 or later installed in the desktop view.

    I'm not completely sure if I read this right, but it seems that true multimonitor is NOT available with RDP. Even if Windows 7 and the last DRC have no problem with that at all. Can someone confirm (or reject if all goes well) that this is the case. I really prefer to use RDP, but I need the true multi-monitor.

    Kind regards

    You need on the client, you connect from version 7.  Version 7 comes with Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2.  You can download version 7 for XP and Vista.

    I wish version Mac was up to 7 and I wish THAT WYSE would improve their RDP to 7.

  • What is the purpose for TMM (Microsoft transient multi-monitor Manager) in Task Scheduler?

    I need some information regarding the purpose and the use of a Scheduler application named TMM or Microsoft transient multi-monitor Manager, please.  Judging by the name of this task, I guess that it is necessary for this application runs when more than one monitor is connected to a computer.  Am I correct in this assumption?

    Because I only have one computer and it has never been more than one monitor hooked up to my computer, do I really have transient multi-monitor Manager Microsoft runs all the time?  If this application does not need to run in my computer, is - it normal that TMM is disabled?

  • Multi-monitor 7 VMWare Fusion is improved from 6?

    Hello VMWare,

    Currently if you google "VMware Fusion 7 multi-monitor Support" this thread is the best result:

    https://communities.VMware.com/thread/458878?start=0 & tstart = 0

    In this thread, the top answer is a VMWare employee is studying ways to improve multi-monitor support VMWare Fusion. It's been a year, and you have now unlocked a new major version, to what you ask me to pay to upgrade.  I guess that these issues have been addressed, but I see no reference to improvements in this regard on the VMWare Fusion 7 product pages.

    Can you please address the following two questions, which are massive trouble when using Fusion 6 (and I want to emphasize, nor issue seems to affect your competing product Parallels):

    1. If you have more than two monitors (three for example), can you use Fusion 7 full screen but use only 2 screens instead of the 3? In fusion 6, you can use one or ALL, I really hope that this behavior is changed.
    2. When you use a display fullscreen VM on several monitors with the new behavior of multiscreen fullscreen introduced in Mavericks, can you change the space of one of your monitors away from the virtual machine and then on another monitor always displays the virtual machine, interact with the virtual machine without the spaces on your other monitors to return to space the VM?

    If you can confirm that the issues have been addressed, I fortunately modernize today.  If not, you clearly that this support is a reason some not a priority for VMWare and I go to Parallels, after buying the latest 3 versions of VMWare and be a happy customer otherwise.

    Thank you for your answer!

    They do not react because the answer is that they did not have * nothing * to improve their software in this regard.

    You better buy Parallels, making these two things well.  Even if the product windows VMWare offers this kind of behavior of multi-monitor, they are apparently not interested in doing the same thing on their OS X product.  I'm not interested in waiting around for them to recognize it as a priority, so I switched to Parallels.

  • Hanging of Thunderbird 38, gel and does not question. 17 accounts pop (Win 8.1, MalwareBytes and Windows Defender)

    Since the update of Thunderbird to 38.* I had nothing but problems with Thunderbird wedging (spinning wheel waiting), a "Mozilla Thunderbird (not answer) ' in the header bar, whiting of window application out and possibly TB box in hell - a small box to appear asking if I want to - close the program, expected so he can resolve itself , or check the internet, then close. I now give the floor it the box to hell (B2H - call it all you want, but I'm cursed every time he pop up!)

    I did everything proposed here and nothing suits. I have used Thunderbird for years with all the same files and Add ons WITHOUT problem. On the first day of the 38 update everything has changed. When Mozilla realizes that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!

    Here is what I tried with nothing working...
    1. I don't have AVG, the only malware bytes and windows defender
    2. it still happens in SafeMode with no active add-on.
    3. I stopped saving function which slows down the frequency of the sinking, but did not eliminate the problem.
    4. I have deleted hundreds of older emails, thinking it was that but who have done nothing.
    5. I changed some accounts of POP at the thought of iMAP that was the problem but nothing has changed.
    6. I made several attempts to patch both Mozilla support and outdoors on the net. Nothing works. Looking at all the people who have the same problems, I have to say that the problem is handling of file. I noticed that as the issue with others who have multi files and emails. The answer is not to reduce these volumes but to understand why thunderbird managed their fine before and what has changed to make the program hang now? Who should be on your end, taken responsibility. Keep us faithful and solve the problem...

    Here are my tips...

    A. I have several files and thousands of e-mails longer and have manged fines, as matter of fact, Thunderbird has been great. Then like a good stooge I approved the moz and did my upgrade to 38. Never had a problem before the upgrade. After the upgrade, everything went to *.

    B. the 38 version upgrade was a big change. When I look in the folder that has been labeled the envoys or Inbox folder (where all emails from each account is collected), all the emails listed would disappear when I moved my mouse over them! Emails disappearing! They were there in records specific e-mail below but not but in the case of head as if it were just a day earlier and with the upgrade. I thought that as an addition on the question and waited for the difficulty that happened not so long ago. Again, which could be a problem of record add-on.

    C. the upgrade to 38 were other issues, but if the madness going no problem was not bad enough, the problem seems to be growing with each ' update or bugfix that followed. Don't hold me to it but I think it was in 38.1.2 or 8 (I think that's it. I wasn't paying attention, but if I had known that I would have to tell it, I will!) That's when hanging interminably long. When the program closed at least I got a project saved, then I read on line that the problem was the registration of open messages, I turned the auto reduction. He did change the frequency of the hanging (white screen pause) and timing (where the B2H appears), but he was always there and always!

    D. I had hoped with 38.2 there will be improvements. Nothing has changed. I didn't know that 38.3 would make this change/fix, but it's not. If I write all this, so you have what I know as a loyal user since 2007.

    E. here is what you need to complete the picture. I'm on a PC running 8.1. on an Intel i7-4770, with 32 GB of ram, now you tell me when you will issue the update to fix the problem! Once again, Mozilla, I suggest you start by looking at how TB 38 manages several emails, files and archives. Not all of us have only one e-mail account. Most of us have been really happy with TB before 38. If you can't find the question, can you show us how to get back to a version prior to 38?

    Thanks for listening and hope that helps!

  • Satellite A100-02 b PSAAR: trick to be able to save for the multi monitor users

    Hi, people

    I always use an external as extension of office monitor when I connect my Tosh to AC.
    And I just found out, when I plug it all and go truly mobile, the graphics card still provides a signal to the VGA Port for the then nonexistent extern monitor.

    On my Satellite A100-02 b (PSAAR) that consumes about 2 Watts, which means about 10% of the duration of battery life, which is about 20 minutes!
    So, if everyone did the same thing
    -Place a link on your desktop or startmenu to 'C:\Windows\System32\control.exe desk.cpl"to have quick access to the settings of the monitor
    -turn off the monitor 2
    - and enjoy longer battery life!

    It's on my Vista, I don't know how XP performs...
    Welcome, Matz

    Hello

    Thanks for the very useful info.
    I think it could be very useful for everyone who uses batteries very often.
