My daughter played a game that changed the resolution of the screen on the reboot I see is no longer anything on the screen!

My daughter has tried to play a game of old trails Oregon of a disc. It made him change the resolution to which she did not return to the stop down. Now, to restart, we are unable to see the screen after windows starts. Any suggestions? We are running Windows Vista.

Hello

Although she has changed the resolution, you should still be able to see a logo when the BIOS boot screen loads. IF this isn't the case then something else happens.

To solve this problem I would boot windows in safe mode, so you can load windows into a default resolution. To do this, when you turn on the PC press, key F8 before Windows loads. (do this as soon as the BIOS screen disappears)

You will be asked to choose from a number of advanced options, is the option you want to select:

Turn on the video resolution (640 x 480)

This will load windows in this resolution, so you can set it manually to your favorite resolution.

Let me know how you go with it.

    Alhajji,
    They suggested to do a factory restore, if a valid step to do.  I know this isn't the most fun thing to do, but if you restore the system failing factory (clean install of the operating system).  Then, run Windows update and update drivers.  At this point, you can install a game and test.  If the problem persists, it would look to be a possible hardware problem with the system.

    Recently, when I open iTunes on my laptop, playlists in all folders appear in alphabetical order, which suits me very well. However, when the program connects to iCloud he proceeds to scramble the order of selections of files, which is an obstacle for me. Is there a way I can get them all listed alphabetically while remaining connected with iCloud?

  • Cancel the iTunes game that changed versions of my music to different

    I downloaded a lot of music from a CD over the years and then added to my iTunes library on my phone. I recently got a new phone and used the cloud as my backup. Now, a lot of songs are different versions than the original that I downloaded and I don't want any. Can I delete iTunes match to recover the originals? I had not never asked the iTunes service game in the first place and I hate that they change just the album covers, titles, and even the song itself!

    Greetings maddiejoanna,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support and congratulations on your new iPhone! It's very exciting to get a new iPhone.

    I see that you have downloaded music from a CD to your iTunes over the years, and after you have restored your iPhone, a lot of songs are different versions than the original. You want to disable iTunes game (or, possibly, iCloud music library as they provide similar functionality) and recover the original songs. I understand perfectly. I want to help you find your original songs.

    You will need to disable iTunes game, iCloud music library or if necessary both in iTunes and on your iPhone. The following articles will help you locate the music library iTunes game and iCloud on each device. Just make sure that you disable each:

    Use iTunes on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch game

    Use your subscription to Apple's music to get your music on all your devices

    In addition, if you prefer not to use these services, you can use the following page to check that the necessary subscriptions were cancelled:

  • HP Split x 2, can I play video games such as the sims 3 or world of warcraft?

    I recently bought this divided Hp x 2 for academic purposes, but my husband wanted to play world of Warcraft in my laptop. usually the screen feels so hot after that he played for at least 3 hours. I don't want him messing my laptop. Sometimes, the game freezes.

    I wanted to know if games like WOW or sims 3 can be played regularly in this type of laptop. I wanted to know if there is anyway I can upgrade this laptop to run to its full potential.

    Thank you!

    Hello mariegarrard,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    This computer is not designed to handle such heavy games such as WOW and Sims 3. Even if you were to spend a few thousand dollars and any compatible hardware upgrade, it still would not work properly.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

  • Need to add Windows XP to Windows 7 so I can play my games that work on XP

    I use Windows 7 Professional. I would add Windows XP as a dual boot, because I have a lot of XP programs; especially the games I want to play. However, the instructions say to install the old version first. I don't want to uninstall Windows 7 first; then install XP; then reinstall Windows 7. Is there a way around this? Microsoft Virtual PC will allow me in XP Mode, but he says that he wo't work for games intensive programs; This is why I would like to add the XP software I have on the disks, so I can run these intensive programs of games. I hope that a solution to my question.

    Thank you!

    Original title: adding Windows XP to Windows 7

    As you have Windows 7 Professional, there is no need to dual boot XP.
    You can download and install XP Mode in Windows 7, allowing you to play all your old XP games.
