    You know Flash Cards is transparent and moving flashy when pressing the FN key.
    After that I downloaded & installed PVAT 1.1.7.see card Flash became a dark, not transparent and does not move when you press FN plus (watch suddenly when pressing FN).

    What's wrong?

    PS. I have A200 - 1 M 4

    Thank you

    Nothing is fake. It is simply a new version. Toshiba has offered this setting day and fixed a big problem. Using the latest version of Flash cards were very slow and it was very awkward. Toshiba has designed the new tool and transparency is no longer available.

    I hope that you know very well that these settings are in need of more resources and laptop runs slower. But in the end I wonder: is it so important to you?

  • Why my sidebar does not work?

    Recently my sidebar on my Vista Ultimate x 64 Edition acted crazy.  The gadgets wouldn't stay where I put them, I did a virus scan and now, the sidebar comes up, but when I left-click on it, it says that the sidebar does not and gives me the option to restart, which I tried, then after a while, it gives me the option of waiting for the sidebar answer or close the sidebar , and I'm not very familiar with the sidebar...  I am quite computer savvy and can do more things with Vista and Win7, but it left me speechless...  Any help you guys can give me to help with this problem would be greatly appreciated...  Thanks for your time and your help and I look forward to your reply...

  • Save a transparent picture = not transparent

    Hello

    I am running CS4 on my Mac and get a watermark.  I would like to make a transparent image to use as a watermark in iMovie.

    The background of the .psd file is transparent, I make my watermark on a layer and reduce the opacity.  On the file, I see the baground activated through my logo.

    When I go to save for Web, the preview screen that opens shows my logo faded in color, but I can see is more the background checked through the image.  It is not transparent, just faded.  This is true for all parameters of PNG and GIF format. Will not save if the background is transparent and the logo itself is transparent.

    Is there something I need to change, or is it possible to have transparent background and not the logo itself transparent?

    Totally lost my zen last night trying to understand this.  Any help is appreciated!

    Check the 2 tab views or 4 seen in the SFW preview window.

    But I still don't see how the PNG-24 format would indicate that a matte color is available.
