• How can I reduce the size of the taskbar (bottom of screen)

  The icons are the right size, but the bar is high

  Hello

  Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can display text and or larger icons on high-resolution screens.
  You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
  To change it follow these steps:

  • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
  • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
  • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

  

  • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

  If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Use values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase size of. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

  If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

  To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

• Failed to start Windows 7 - color blocks fill screen. Frozen system.

  At the start of my system Windows 7 displays a screen full of colored blocks superimposed with random characters.  That's all that is displayed.  There is no message.  The system does not meet another entry.  I would be grateful for any feedback.  Thank you.

  Dell desktop

  Seems to be a hardware failure, more specifically your graphics card.

  (1) turn off the computer, open the case and check that the graphics card is in place (not bad).

  (2) if the graphics card has a power cable to the back of the card, it must be well inserted.

  (3) you can try to remove and reinsert the card the motherboard if steps 1 or 2 provide no solution.

  After return your results.

• I have a black screen, but can use windows on the bottom bar.

  I have a HP desktop computer and you are using Windows Vista Home Premium.  The Office has been black for about a month now.  Again, I have the windows at the bottom bar and am able to navigate in all my programs through the start icon.  The computer seems to work very well - and analyses have not found something unusual.  That's happened?  How can I recover my office?  I can't start my computer Safe Mode (by pressing f8) and I find not "Accessories" in my list of programs, but I could find 'system restore', so I chose a point of restoration about 4 weeks ago, but he has failed.  Can you help me!
  Thank you!

  I thought that the files have completely disappeared.  shortcuts were definitely missing.  When I went to "my documents" on the start menu, I could not find personal files at all.  It is computer of my mother and my brother came the next day and was able to fix it.  He said that he has restored the computer using "System Restore" and used a date prior to that I took.  He was able to restore the computer and found all the files.  I guess they were just hidden.

  So I guess that the problem has been resolved!  Thank you for your answer!

A problem that I can't fix, is that when I maximize a window of game (Combat Arms, WoW... etc...) are the taskbar on the top of the game. I tried to auto-hide the taskbar, but if I move my mouse to the bottom of the screen all at stake, the taskbar appears again. How can I have Taskbar NOT always on top?   Thanks in advance!

  The first answer on the taskbar functionality has been moved to the forum Desktop and personalization.  Here is the link if you want to add.  This forum is for spefically games.

  Bozzhog,
  I have Windows 7 and you are running Wow and World of Goo in full screen without any problems.  You are your games running in window mode and to maximize the window or you run full-screen mode?  Make sure that you put it up to full screen and not the mode window.

• Firefox window is larger than my screen

  All of a sudden the firefox window is larger than my screen. I have no window border. I have no title bar. I have no address bar. I have not everything that calls windows he start the button bar.

  I uninstalled and downloaded with IE and re-installed. Same same-o-o.

  Help. IE stinks. Save my firefox!

  Thank you
  John

  Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).
  If you are in full screen view then hover over with the mouse upward to make the bar appear Navigation and tab bar.
  You can click the maximize button in the upper right to leave the mode full screen or empty space of a right-click on a toolbar and use "exit full screen" or press F11.

  • Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the taskbar icon to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the window of Firefox.
  • Open the system menu via Alt + space and see if you can move and resize the window.

  If it works then close Firefox (file > exit/Quit) to save the setting.

• . How to change the location of the START/taskbar on the screen

  Accidentally (I have it did not on purpose - I do not know if Windows did it without asking me) a few months ago, the START button and the taskbar got vertical to the right of the screen.  A technician came to the House and installed more memory in the computer. I asked to put the START/task bar on wallpaper - what service person did.  Now I find that I would prefer to START/vertical bar to the right of the screen again because I found out I'd rather that it this way.

  I can't find something a lot of things I've tried, which allows me to change this part of the appearance of the screen.

  The last thing I tried was to press each F for F1 to F12 keys to see if something useful would jump to the top.  No luck.

  Someone at - it a tip to share?

  You don't mention your version of Windows.
   
  Right-click on the taskbar and unlock it. Take an empty place and drag it to the desired location. Lock the taskbar.
  For Win7:
   
  Right click on the Start button. Properties | Tab taskbar | Location of the taskbar on the screen. Carry out the adjustment.

• Impossible to load windows, just get a black screen with cursor

  I restarted my computer and now Windows will not load. It happens on the screen says 'Windows' in the bottom with green bars. Then it goes to a blank screen with a cursor to work. I left alone for a bit to see if she would just take a while to load and the screen saver came, that works, but I cannot get it on my desk.

  -nothing has been installed recently

  -Tried to reboot in safe mode (cannot enter safe mode)

  -Tried to restore to previous points

  -Tried CTRL + ALT + DELETE (does nothing, can't pull up the Task Manager)

  Hello

  A blackscreen can be very hard to fix. It's my generic convenience store which some you already have
  has tried.

  One to try:

  "C:\Windows\System32\winevt" in this folder is an another NEWSPAPER named one

  Rename the folder of NEWSPAPER LOGSold and restart the computer.

  'C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs'-> 'C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logsold '.

  REN C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logsold

  You can try in a Command Prompt of a disk of Vista or a recovery Partition if you can't navigate to
  the actual winevt file.

  -----------------------------------------------

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe.

  First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
  Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
  Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
  field efforts.

• Windows starts to a black screen

  original title: I can't!

  Recently, I did a system restore on my Dell Inspiron. Before I did the system restore, my computer could not cross the Logging Off screen. Now, the computer will ask me my password open a windows session, go through the screen of welcome, and after that the screen remains dark, all I can see is my mouse. I have the disk to reinstall Windows if that helps.

  http://support.Dell.com/support/eDOCS/systems/WS340/en/UG/DIAGS.htm

  Read the above.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  If it's a DVD of Microsoft Vista, not a recovery disk, read this:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Boot from it and try a startup repair, etc.

  If it's a Dell recovery disk, read this:

  If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

• window appears on the extended screen, but the screen isn't there anymore so can't get to the window (2nd screen on laptop is only when it is connected to the desktop)

  Hi... interesting problem. I use my laptop computer on a desk with a second screen and moving.

  The last time I was using my laptop on the desk, I brought an application (Quicken) on the second screen and now when I start it up it displays on-screen extended even if I use the standalone laptop. I can't demand because it appears in the second screen and I can't get it back to the main screen. I even rebooted and it seems to 'remember' where is was the last time.

  Any thoughts on how to get it back (I know I can reconnect the second screen and move it back, but what about the time when I'm not near my office and want to access an application that was last used on the extended screen.)

  Argh...

  Thanks for your thoughts, I assume that there is a simple key sequence to make it visible on the main screen once I can't find it anywhere.

  Kind regards
  Lex Gitter

  Very late reply, I have the same problem and I solve it hovering over the window you want in the taskbar when the preview window displays a right-click on it.  Select optimize.  The window will appear on your screen.  No, you can enter the window and its size down, it stays on the current view

• How to extend the taskbar on 2 screens

  I have 2 monitors. I want that the taskbar on the screen 2. should what setting I need to light so that I can see the taskbar on the 2nd screen? I have win 7.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hello

  We can see the taskbar on only main (Primary) monitor.

  I suggest you follow the links:

  Solving the multiple monitor problems:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-multiple-monitor-problems

  Note: Also applies to the Windows 7 operating system.

  For reference:

  Move windows between multiple monitors:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/move-Windows-between-multiple-monitors

   

  You can use third-party tools to implement the taskbar on both monitors.

  Warning: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• View topic - the games shown in a small window on the built-in screen

  I have a SAT. 2805 S402 with Nvidia GeForce2Go chip. I was able to play a couple of my games to the resolution by default (1024 X 768) until I plugged in an external monitor. Now, it displays these games in a small window on the built-in screen. How can I reset this? I've updated my directx stuff, got hardware acceleration, the max value, etc.. DirectX or my driver Nvidia said games to display this way so they will better work?

  As I said, I could read them before fullscreen, I added the external monitor. They were a bit blurry, but I liked better. Kyodai Mahjongg always play at 1024 X 768, but no Tetris 4000 or Atari Arcade.

  Hello

  I put t think directx will help to run these very old games using the full screen.
  In addition, you should always use the Toshiba graphics driver and not the original manufacturer s driver. The Toshiba driver is a slim original graphic driver version and includes a graphics card, protection against overheating.
  I think that this problem occurs only on some games and other games works ok so I n c ELA think other drivers will solve this problem.

  Good bye
