  • Media Player 12 will not remain full screen for more than 5 min.

    Upgrade Vista Ultimate to 7 Ultimate. Media Player now will not stay full screen for more than 5 minutes during movie playback. How can I fix this please?

    When presentation settings are turned on, your mobile PC stays awake and system notifications are turned off. I would not advice you constantly running in presentation mode because it does not allow your computer becomes idle (and display the screen saver) even when you do not do anything. He probably solved your problem because one of your application does not perform certain actions as before, because it's always 'think' that your computer is not idle.

    You should do something like this: check the settings for these two applications: Vaio update and Trend Micro (probably you can get there after right-clicking on the icon in the notification area and choose the appropriate context menu position). There should be some options when these applications are performing the update process. No doubt, one of them made when the computer becomes inactive if it may affect the mode full-screen. I guess that might be Vaio update, because I read that since version 2010, Trend Micro has been improved and should not cause this problem, but you should check the two of them. You should change the appropriate settings, so it will play the update process in another moment.

    There is also something else you can try. You can read this article: How to prevent the flight home in Windows programs . You can find how to prevent theft of focus programs, then perhaps it can also solve your problem. Maybe after the upgrade to Vista, specific registry key does not contain the appropriate value, and you must follow these steps to fix that:

    1. Click Start and then click run (or you can press Windows key + R )

    2. In the text box on the run window, type regedit and click OK. This will open the registry editor program.

    3. Find the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER under my computer and click the plus sign (+) after the folder name to expand the folder.

    4. Continue to expand the folders until you reach the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel registry key.

    5. Select the key of Office under Control Panel .

    6. On the right side of the screen, locate and double-click ForegroundLockTimeout DWORD.

    7. In the Edit DWORD value window that appears, set them value data: field to 30 d 40 .

      Note: Make sure that the Basic option has the hexadecimal value, when you enter the DWORD value.

    8. Click OK , and then close the registry editor .

    9. Restart your PC for the changes to take effect.

    10. From this moment on, programs should no longer steal focus from the window you are currently working.

  • Microsoft, including word, excellent programs and powerpoint, will not be full screen in their own Office tabs

    Hello

    For some reason, Microsoft programs, I have installed on my Macbook Pro, including word, excellent and powerpoint, will not be full screen in their own office tabs.  When you click on the button to decompress the file in its own tab office + Green, the window covers just everything that is on the current tab.  Here is a screenshot attached.  The screenshot shows the «expanded» word document  In the past, when you click on the green button, it would be fully filtered file on its own tab.  Any ideas on the cause and a fix?  This only happens with Microsoft programs.

    Thank you!

  • Video HTML5 will not be full screen on the second monitor?

    While playing a Html5 video full screen on my second monitor, whenever I try to do anything else the video mode full-screen. Video Flash works very well and will stay full screen on my second monitor. I also tried the same Html5 video in Google chrome and worked correctly and remained full screen too. So why the Html5 video will not remain on a second monitor fullscreen in Firefox?

    There is a fix for this, but apparently it is not yet available in the current version of Firefox (12.0). At the next update of Firefox comes out, you will be able to go to about: config and game "full-screen - api .exit-on-disable" false and the problem will be solved.

    I hope Mozilla will soon that the default for users will not do this!

  • On flash player pressing ESC will not end full-screen more

    I am running windows 7 64 bit and now when I go fullscreen mode I can't click ESC to exit back to the normal display. I remember I accidentally right click and choose the global settings in the menu options, but haven't selected what whether closed this window immediately. Happened since then if I did something right there.

    All the Googling I've done is back with problems on the message "Hit esc to exit fullscreen" will not go away so I have not found much on my problem, can someone help me?

    E: should mention I have 10,3,181,34 installed and am using FF5.

    Hi, you could try F11 or alt + tab Alt + tab will open another window and then maybe one with full screen can be exited.

    Not sure about the latter, but worth a try. I don't know why esc would not work, but I don't think that the Global Settings Panels would have something to do with it.

    Thank you

  • Satellite A300 PSAG0A - games does not show full screen

    I have a large number of games installed on my computer. At least 90% of them appear not in the size of the full screen, but they are displayed in a small window with a large amount of black screen that surrounds the window. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. However, I don't think that it has nothing to do with Windows as my husband is running the same games on his Toshiba Satellite L300, exactly the same version of windows running, and they are all displayed in full screen.

    Change the screen resolution makes no difference. And, of course, I select the option full screen in games.

    Also, sometimes when I play a game and then closed it I think my desktop image shrank to small size - the same size the window in which the game was displayed when I played it.

    Games work fine in every other sense, isn't this small screen size that is driving me crazy.

    I hope someone can help me with this!

    Hello

    I think I know what's wrong.
    You should go to the control panel and you must choose the Intel graphics Media Accelerator for Mobile.
    Here, you should go to display settings-> image format Options, and there you have set the image in full screen format.

    Check it!

  • Screen saver will not be full screen

    Hello!

    I have win 7 with IE 11 on my desk, and after installing a screensaver on my computer, it only appears in the middle of the screen, with a large space around it.

    There is no "stretch" function  Does anyone know how to fix this please, so that it fills the screen?

    Because you installed the screensaver yourself, we are not aware of the characteristics of the settings and screen saver. That's why I suggest you contact the support division of company, who developed the screen saver, to repair.

  • in the full desktop screen I try to go on my hotmail page and it opens even when online a few pages and not opens full screen

    Trying to open my hotmail to my office screen and it will not open full screen I tried solutions for XP and Vista, but it did not help. And also some sites when I'm online does not open full page. It's a little annoying please help with a solution.

    How did your problem related to Windows Update?

    Close all but one of these small windows (Internert Explorer?). 'Catch' the corners of the remaining window with your cursor and 'stretch' up to size but do NOT maximize! Now close the resized window.

    The resized window MUST be the last closed window so that its size remember.

    Or you can install IE New Window Maximizer and forget it!

  • Setting to open all new web pages "full width inside". I do not mean "full screen".

    You can use "control +" to make a web page expand to fill the width of the screen. If you clear your history of this 'size' will be remembered the next time that you open the web page. I want to new web pages to automatically fill the entire width of my screen when I load them. Ideally, I have clear my history, I want all web pages to fill the entire width of my screen. I do not mean "full screen". I don't know if all browsers has this same question.

  • I can't enlarge full screen on any games, I try to play. What should I try?

    I can't enlarge full screen on any games, I try to play. They only appear in a little box in the middle of the screen. When I have the option "full screen" on it is black the rest of the screen, but there is still the small size. What should I try?

    Hi Amergular,
     
    -With what games are you having this problem?
    -You are using a laptop or a desktop computer?
     
    Try the methods that are listed in the order.
     
    Method 1: If you know what your game is set to run at the resolution, set the display settings of Windows at the same resolution as the game. You can also try to adjust your display resolution of 640 x 480 high color (16 bit) and check if it helps.
    For more information, see:
     
    Method 2: To determine if there is a problem with the video card or video driver, reduce the graphics hardware acceleration setting. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. Click Start, type personalization in the search box and then click on personalization in the list programs.

    b. click on display settings. Click on advanced settings.

    c. click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

    d. move the hardware acceleration slider two notches to the left of Full (the Disable cursor and bitmap accelerations setting).

    e. click OK, and then click Restart now.

    f. once the computer has restarted, test the game.

    Note: If reduce hardware acceleration resolves the issue, you may need to update your video card drivers, or it may mean that your video adapter cannot run your game at full speed.

     
    Method 3: Update the video card driver by visiting the website of the manufcturer.
