  Is it possible that I can connect an external display and have audio?

  Hello. After you connect the external monitor, go to the sound properties (Control Panel > Sound). On the Read tab, right click on "Speakers" and make sure that the default device. And then the audio will be released through the speakers of the laptop again.

  If "Digital output" or "HDMI Audio" is the default device, then you will hear no audio.

  Maybe a problem with my graphics card drivers? This is my first post and I'm not sure if this is really anything that someone would be able to help me with that I don't really know anything about the wiretap, but tips are very much appreciated.

  Vista 32 bit

  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 graphics card

  Thank you

  Hello j.d.1882,

  1. you have the latest drivers installed for your graphics card?

  I suggest that you update the drivers for the graphics card and check if the computer continues to crash.

  In addition, I suggest that you download the dump files to check exactly what may cause the problem.

  Athttp://skydrive.live.com using your Live ID and I will check:

  a. Click Start, select run, type '% SystemRoot%\Minidump' (without the quotes) in the search box and press ENTER.

  b go to your desktop, right-click on it and create a new folder named "Dump".

  c. copy all the files in memory dump (it looks like Mini092003 - 01.DMP) in Minidump in this folder.

  d. right click on the folder of the image, click on "send to" and click on "compressed file (zipped).

  e. Please download the ZIP file.

• Unable to get the maximum screen resolution when you use the external monitor

  Hello

  I use Windows 8 on laptop ASUS K55A. I use an external monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 2233BW). Everything works fine except that I do not get the maximum resolution on the external display. The only way I see a sort of an overview of the good resolution is when I choose "extend these screens", but it's very uncomfortable when there's always one screen, I don't actually see.
  How can I increase the resolution of the screen on the external screen? (now, it's on 'show desktop only on 2')
  Thank you!

  I use Windows 8 on laptop ASUS K55A.

  So first a Bing search finds that ASUS K55A probably has the chip Intel HD 4000

  Then,

  https://communities.Intel.com/thread/30360

  (BING search engine for)
  Two monitors specifications Intel HD Graphics 4000

  )

  Graphics card Intel doesn't support double bond, so 1920 x 1200 is the maximum for DVI and HDMI, 2560 x 1440 is only possible with a display port. This is indicated in each product page.
  

• Lose the snapshots created by vmware fusion when running in vmware player?

  Hi all

  At home I have VMWare Fusion on a Mac and have created a lot of photos;

  Unfortunately I'm away and stay with a friend who has that VMWare Player.

  I'll lose all the clichés that I created if I run my last VM at his computer, whereas VMWare Player have the ability to single snapshot?

  Thank you

  No, you won't lose the snapshots. However, you will not be able to manage, so the virtual machine will run the latest snapshot (and grow this hard snapshot file).

• BUG: Breaks VMware Fusion when there is free space on the host < 1.9 GB... result = > 1,9 GB never use for anything! (note: I do not use a virtual disk!)

  Hello

  first some info on my system:

  -

  ---

  MacBook Pro

  Processor: Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz

  RAM: 4 GB

  HARD drive: 112 Go - 2 partitions (80 GB Mac OS x 10.5.6 32GB, Windows XP)

  ---

  VMware Fusion version: 2.0.4 (other affected versions 2.0.3/2.0.2/2.0.1/2.0)

  Allocated to the virtual machine RAM: 1.5 GB

  Under Windows XP in VMware (boot_camp) partition separated - NO VIRTUAL DRIVE! -separate the NTFS partition.

  -

  ---

  Now the bug/problem:

  Every time that free up disk space on the host partition (MacOsX) becomes less than 1.9 GB the VMware Fusion makes a break with this runtime message:

  -

  ---

  VMware Fusion has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full.

  To continue, free at least 1.9 GB of disk space.

  -

  ---

  Please prove me wrong, but makes no sense to me, because the result is that these 1.9 GB is never used (or VMware) :-(

  In advance, VMware Fusion allocates approximately 1.9 GB whenever the virtual machine is started then in my opinion this runtime check is redundant and the audit should run only before you start the virtual machine.

  Anyone know how to move this bug to developers or solve the problem?

  It's very annoying not being able to use almost 2 GB of disk space :-(

  Thanks for all the relevant answers :-)

  This is not a Bug! and this is the expected behavior to avoid crashing on OS X and or damage to the system as a result of unexpectedly running out of space.

  If you are currently running disks tight on space you have a bigger problem then do what it's programmed to do my protect the stability of the system, because the user is not paying attention to the State of their own Fusion system.

  Free and maintain a suitable available space as required by the programs that you use, and how they are used.

  It's a result of error of the end user, because you shouldn't be filling your drives and should always maintain a reasonable percentage of free space.

• VMware Fusion task using several cycles of CPU as vmware-vmx

  Cycles is often used by the user interface of VMware CPU than the virtual machine from Windows XP to the actual address.  It usually revolves around 40% with much higher spikes.  I'm under Fusion 3.0.  I've never seen the task of VMware Fusion with significant cycles in Fusion 2.0 x.

  Any thoughts?

  We believe this is an Apple bug. It also happens with, for example: http://community.norton.com/norton/board/message?board.id=norton_mac&thread.id=1368 (the relevant part of the sample is of approximately-[NSProgressIndicator _animationIdler :]))

• Vista on the XPS M1330 laptop lost wireless when the lid closed (using the external monitor)

  Hello

  I bought an external monitor/keyboard/mouse for my laptop XPS M1330 (connection of the monitor via a HDMI to DVI cable).  However as soon as the lid is closed the wireless network stops working - opening the lid immediately launches the application again.  A network through a physical cable connection works with the closing of the cover.  Note, the network remains connected (or at least is always intended to be connected) it has not sent or received no information, while the lid is closed.

  XPS M1330 laptop under Vista Home Premium SP1 - Wireless card is Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG running the latest drivers 11.5.0.32.

  Power options are obviously set to shut down the computer laptop shut down, goes to stand by, or go into hybernation when the lid is closed... it is set to 'status quo '.  The properties of the wireless card has the "Ad hoc power management" disabled and the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" unchecked.

  When the cover is opened, the monitor takes the maximum size of the screen of the laptop, which goes against the objective set for the monitor in the first place.

  (As a side note, the laptop also refused to work with a wired via a network connection "homeplug" - even if a hub is placed between the laptop and the homeplug - and I refuse to run a cable between the router as the laptop will be used in another room of the router).

  Is there a solution to this, or is this a problem with Vista?  (Because if this is the case, it is yet another nail in the coffin - and it becomes difficult to find any more room for nails more!  Windows 7 is fast approaching!)

  See you soon,.

  Hi tom101449,

  ·          The WiFi was working fine earlier?

  ·          You did it all change hardware or software on your computer before this problem?

  Method 1

  If the problem occurs after you install the latest drivers Intel PRO / Wireless, you can restore the drivers for the card wireless to the previous version. For more information, see this link.

  Restore a driver with its previous version

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/restore-a-driver-to-its-previous-version

  Method 2

  When you connect to your wireless network, make sure that the option 'Save this network' is checked.

  In addition, right-click on the network > properties, then on the connection tab, check the box that says "connect automatically when this network is in range.

  Reference:

• Turn off display when you use the external monitor R61?

  Hello

  I have a ThinkPad R61, which I use with an external monitor.  Somehow, I had in place for months with the laptop out of the screen and the monitor on.  I've used today at a meeting to feed a projector, selected somehow dieting Fn F7 of presentation such as the screen and the projector are-as I wanted - then home, re-installed with my external monitor and cannot find out how to turn off the display on the laptop.  The selections under Fn F7 do not allow this combination.  I tried the trick you offered, Fn F3 to turn off the display, but it turned out the two views.  (Now, how can I reverse this setting?)

  It sounds like a requirement of switching every day, but I can't find a clue in aid of ThinkVantage, manual mini, on the website, etc.  Thank you

  WaynO salvation,

  After pressing Fn + F7, click on manage plans... to open the Director presentation window. Then click the new... button. You should be able to put in place a system to only display on the external monitor. After setting up, make sure to check the box in the column Menu Fn + F7 to have your new schema appears in the menu when you press Fn + F7.

• 'New' strange problem when connecting to external monitor

  in the last two days, I experience a new and strange problem when you try to extend or duplicate my screen of my laptop to an external monitor.  I do usually all the time, but now when I plug the HDMI cable to the laptop I have 'lost' my original on the laptop screen and can see a larger version of the Windows logo, so the original laptop screen is "gone" or unusable.  It is not cable or an external monitor, as it works fine with my cell phone to friends. Could it be a corrupted file or a parameter? Please tell me I didn't have to reload Windows over this. Thanks in advance.

  Hi Joyce,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I appreciate your patience.

  I suggest you update this link display drivers and check.

• Yes or not - is VMware Fusion 3.1 support dual monitors in Windows 7 x 64?

  I want just a definitive answer or no two monitors will work in a Windows 7 64 bit guest.

  I am running 3.0.2 and two monitors do not work properly in Windows 7 64 bit - the second monitor is displayed but I can't drag windows or with the right button on the extended desktop.  This feature works as expected in 32-bit Windows XP SP3.

  EDIT: I refer to the mode full screen. I'm not interested in the unit or any other mode (although, curiously, the unit has the same bug).

  david01010, jrreedy16: two things to check off the top of my head: are you sure tools are updated and installed correctly (for example uninstall tools, restart the comments necessary, install tools) and you have a third party mouse (or other entry) drivers installed in the comments or on the host?

• Disk error non system at boot when using the external USB disk

  Hello

  I use Windows 7 Pro.  I have a Seagate external USB disk causing a "Non-system disk error" at startup.
  I had the same problem with a Clickfree drive.
  The problem occurs on my other PC with different versions of Windows.
  How can I get my computer to start and not give me this error message for my backup drive?
  At startup (when the drive disconnected), I get a screen of BACK indicating "Client Mac Addr."... GUID..., DHCP. "I think it's looking for a disk boot from.
  I just need to boot from the internal hard drive.
  Thank you
  AS

  USB external references aren't desingned to be connected on startup, you must also use the safely remove the procedure and disconnect the USB key before closing.

  If you get such a screen "Client Mac Addr... etc" at the start (with usb unplugged), looks like you are using a very old motherboard. If the system starts only with connected usb, then your initial installation of victory is defective or damaged

• How auto turn off the screen of the laptop when you use the external monitor?

  I don't wan turn on laptop screen and my external monitor at the same time. So is it possible to do automatic screen of my laptop to turn off as soon as I plug my external monitor to my laptop vga cable (without pressing Fn + F2 keys)?

  Please help me.

  Thank you.

  I don't know if it's possible, but you could try to go into display settings and set an external because it is main if possible display and then disable the laptop with Fn + F2 but idk if it will remain inactive if you portable computer power, then on again :/

  Update: how to do this, right-click on the screen area and select the screen resolution while having the connected external display then of you will find a drop down a 3rd or a 4th do not remember but inside, you'll find stuff like show desktop on the screen 1 or 2 to find out what your external display screen number is and apply it to this form then computer laptop screen should turn black as it is turned off and you will see desktop area is on external display so I hope that this has resolved your request.

  PS don't forget to press Bravo if it helped

• E.M.P. Provisioning when using an external user directory

  I intend to use an external user directory, probably MSAD.
  
  Now I understand supply is done in the native directory. How can I get the users that exist in the directory of the external user is displayed in the native directory OR how do I do for the provisioning of users that exist in the directory of the external user?

  EssbaseApprentice wrote:
  According to the documentation, only native directory users can be assigned to the supply. However, I seem to be able to right click on a user under MSAD and > it provision.

  You can configure AD users just as native users, so do the same thing you did with native users.

  See you soon
