Play sound but no display

I've been trying to start my Mac but with no joy. When I try to run the drivers and the fans start and I am receving departure Bing, but it has not shown display. I tried to unplug and restart but still no joy. Any help would be great.

Try resetting the PRAM as directed by the iMac SMC and reset the PRAM. I also recommend to disconnect all devices before you do the reset.

  • AVI video files play sound but no video in Windows Media Player 7

    My video files avi play sound but no video in Windows Media Player 7. Video files avi are since 2002 and has played very well until I'm a new PC with Windows 7 so I know that the files are not corrupt. All my other files and videos play fine in Media Player. I checked online and seen the posts in other forums on the codecs being the problem. Does anyone know how to fix this? Based on the other forums I found it seems that it is not uncommon that a problem with Win7.

    Also, is it possible to convert audio and video files in different formats with Media Player? Or do I need any other software to do this?

    It is not that there is a problem in Windows 7, it is more likely that you don't have just the installed CODEC the video file is saved with.  You will need to find a source, download and install any CODEC no MS yourself. You can use GSpot to identify CODECs used in AVI files. An alternative to downloading of many individual CODECs is to install FFDSHOW instead. Some media players like VLC and Media Player Classic also have internal CODECS and support for a wide variety of video and audio file types.

  • Windows Movie Maker plays sound but no picture for the Sims 2 movies after installing the codec vp6vfw.dll - how to fix Movie Maker?

    Sims 2 was not properly installing its codec vp6vfw.dll film so I copy and pasted from Sims 1 CD in my windows > System 32.  Now when I play the Sims 2 game I can make movies.  They appear in Windows Media Player very well.  But they do not visually show in Windows Movie Maker.  I get sound.  How can I fix Windows Movie Maker to display my Sims 2 movies?

    I found the answer.  Windows Movie Maker is no longer supported.  The new version is Windows Live Movie Maker, and it has all the appropriate codecs.  Download that and you're good!

    WMM is trash but it can not be uninstalled from the PC.  Just ignore it and use WLMM.
  • All embedded videos in articles of the internet and YouTube play sound but no picture

    My problem started about 2 weeks ago. Before that, I could directly play any video on Youtube or any video embedded in a Web download.
    Now video games, in the sense that I have sound and the time elapsed bar moves along the bottom of the screen, but there is no video, just a complete green screen. This applies to any video on Youtube or incorporated into an internet download.
    I can still play any video I already downloaded on my PC, that this Flash Video or MP4 file.
    The latest versions of Windows Media Player, VLC Media Player, Media Player Classic and Adobe Flash Player players installed on my PC.
    The problem started at the same time there was a major update to my program free antivirus Avast (to the 8.0.1482 version), but it is probably a red herring, as I struggle to believe this might have something to do with the problem.
    I also tried on Internet Explorer and the problem is all the same, it is not specific to Firefox.
    Can anyone offer a solution?
    Kind regards
    Barry

  • After being opened for a while (with several tabs) Firefox does generally and repeatedly play a sound - video will play again, but not sound.

    This problem started happening only recently. I often keep my Firefox open all night with sites like rainymood.com or grooveshark.com playing, as well as several other tabs, including but not limited to Facebook, YouTube, and Reddit. Sometimes, after a few hours/days to not restart Firefox or my computer, Firefox starts to become insensitive - i.e., pages take a long time to load, opening new tabs is difficult for the browser and videos will have up to 30 seconds to start playing. In addition, the sound stops playing. If I start a YouTube video, after the initial period of excessive load, the video will play, but without any audio. Also, sites such as rainymood.com and grooveshark, even Facebook, stop sound.

    Note that this is different from an incident of flash plugin - when flash falls down, the audio and video become inaccessible and a simple refresh or restart of Firefox will solve the problem. But what is happening here is different; If I refresh the tab, nothing changes, and even if I restart Firefox, it opens the same way again until I restart my computer completely.

    Also of note: I had, in the past, this same thing happens, but rainymood.com continued to play, however no other tabs would make sound. The problem is sporadic and I don't know where to start. Also, sometimes it's only a problem of Firefox specific, which means other programs on my computer can make sounds, but sometimes this problem makes my computer all stop making sounds, with the exception of Ventrilo, which works, but is also insensitive in the beginning.

    The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
    Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions, open Web sites and preferences.

    To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

    1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
    2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
    3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
    4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

    Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

  • Pavilion DV4: Laptop plays sound through headphones but not by internal speakers

    Audio was working fine on my laptop, when suddenly the laptop would not play sound with internal speakers.  If I plug in headphones sound is fine.  Execution of control panel of configuration/sounds shows 'Speakers and dual headphone - IDT High Definition Audio CODEC' enabled and set as the default device, as well as "independent double headphones" (enabled by default but not) and 'SPDIF (Digital Out via HP docking station)' disabled.  What can be wrong?

    Cure the problem by uninstalling the CODEC driver, then restart Windows then reinstalled, and now things are ok again.

    Hello
    Find the StorE TV + specifications on this page from Toshiba:
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/TV-plus/

  • When you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the photo in Windows Media Player.

    * Original title: Windows Media PLayer

    I have Windows Media Player version 12 installed but when you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the picture.  Please see image attached.

    Even if I see that I can change the version of the file in a different format, I have the same problem with videos on websites that I can not of course change the format before playing these.

    I managed to fix the problem for about 20 minutes by flattening my computer re - install the operating system and this resolved until all updates have been through, and then it disappeared again.  I tried many codecs packs and this still does not help.

    My system is running Windows 7 and Media Player version is 12.0.7601.18840, which tells me that Media Player is the most recent version.

    Please can someone help?

    Open uninstall a program in windows and in the left click on the feature to turn on or off windows. Clear the check box of the window Media Player, and then click ok. This will uninstall the drive, and then restart.

    After restarting the same steps, now, check the box for the same and perform a restart and if all goes well it should solve the problem.

    Note: Make sure that Windows is up-to-date.
