Problem with desktop icons - odd images appearing

Hello

I recently acquired a laptop Asus N61Vg which of course came with a Windows 7 Home Premium OEM. After using for most laptops and Windows 7 settings, and after I got rid of the bloatware, I started to do some graphics cards and performance tests. While I was measuring a few FPS in Left 4 Dead (not a fan of the game, I just wanted to test the graphics card, an Nvidia 220 M), the game froze and I had to close it with the "end task".

Subsequently, some of the desktop icons (some of them from the former programs) are displayed inside a frame, a very annoying. I tried fiddling with the usual settings and reinstall the graphics card driver. I even deleted the Cache icon (from my AppData folder) but the problem persists.

Since I only used the system for a few days, I can imagine there is a registry entry that I've screwed to the top or a setting that I modified. So it is either very simple and puts me in a bad light or whole enough to annoy me. Any suggestions?

Fixed!

The problem is that most of the icons can only watch smoothly on a "small icons" view. I used the medium-sized icons. The game changed some of my settings, and resizing is affected. After some time switching between small - medium - large icons and reorganization, the problem went away, even after rebooting. I can't be sure, it will not resurface once again, but at least I can get rid of it if she didn't.

In short: RMB-> view-> small icons. RMB-> view-> medium-sized icons. Reorganize, restart. The effect may still appear then do this a few times, eventually passing through large icons as well.

  • Problem with desktop icons

    A few times my icons are blurring.  Sometimes, some of them are missing.

    This time, I have 3 icons about 15.

    If I look into the records of all users desktop, all the icons are there.

    ????????

    Hey Amos888,

     

    Increase the size of your icon cache and see where it leads.

    If this cache is too small, the desktop icons may display incorrectly or show the wrong program icons.

    Step 1: Increase the size of the icon cache.

    Important: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following windows Help article.

    Back up the registry

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-the-registry

    1. go to start and type regedit.exe.

    2. navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Explorer.

    3. now, create a DWORD value called Max Cached Icons and set the value to 4096.

    4. close the registry editor.

    5 restart the computer.

    If the problem continues, check if a third of service or application is causing this problem.

    Step 2: Perform the clean boot

     

    Study the behavior of the icons when the computer is in clean boot state.

    Refer to this article for more information on how to do it.

  • Windows Vista Home Basic - problem with the icons does not meet various Windows services after trying to download updates

    I use Windows Vista Home Basic on a Dell Inspiron 1501.  I have recently accepted that some guest downloads Windows with terrible results.  First downloads do not appear to have been accepted and the system of guard stop and startup trying to cancel.  Second as I result, I seem to have lost access to a range of Windows tools.  For example in Panel I can't open system icons or Windows Update.  Nor can I access these services from any other avenue on the computer.  Whenever I have find an icon or a file screen flashes a dialog briefly and then disappears.  The effect of this is that I'm completely unable to access or to implement the recommended tools or services that could solve this problem.  My ability to manage my computer has been reduced to zero.  Dell were not receptive and I can't get a response from Microsoft

  • problem with the position of image in the slideshow width 100%

    Hello Im having a problem with my slide show that is 100% browser width.  the slideshow container is set to a height of 300 pixels and the picture I inserted is about 1500 pixels in height.  I placed the image so it defined in a specific section of the image, but when I hit the 100% width button it positions the image down.  is this a bug or it's adjustable somehow?

    Hello

    What you encountered is the default behavior of the slideshow widget, which, once the value of width of 100%. I'm afraid at this point, you can not edit/resize the image. So, to do the same thing, you will need to remove the 100% width of the widget option.

  • Problem with the Apple Core Image?

    Can someone confirm for me that there is a problem with Apple Core Image which has feature to DNG. I have problems with Nikon RAWs converted with DNG Converter. Once changes have been made to these DNG (in Lightroom 2.3) and the metadata and previews updated software (Preview, etc.) based on the main Image don't seem to use the embedded JPG (with applied adjsutments) but well the smallest thumbview, not up-to-date. I do not use the option "convert to linear" when converting.

    >... but Apple OS uses its own rendering system (part of Mac OS) to display

    > or LR of embedded previews.

    Hi Eric - so a software program that uses Apple CoreImage to render a LR

    "adjusted" DNG will be or does not display a picture of the DNG that has been

    cropped.

    Will not. In general, LR settings (e.g., cultures, fill light, etc.) are not

    applied by Core Image. These types of adjustments are specific to each flood

    converter.
