• Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 K 9 - screen flickers power on and off

  Has anyone encountered a problem where the screen flickers power on and off? Mine will Dim to the point where you can't see whats happening and then back to normal.

  I tried a restore drivers, but the problem persisted. I did also check complete anti-virus (I realize that it was probably not the cause of the problem, but decided to be complete). I was thinking that it's purely a hardware problem, like when I use an external monitor connected through a HDMI cable I don't have this problem.

  I guess it must be a problem with the connection between the screen and the motherboard. Maybe a problem within the hinge where they cross connection.

  Anyone got any other suggestions until I sent it off for repair (only he got in March and I have a 2 year warranty, but who goes back to college soon and do not want to be without him).

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 k 9.

  Thanks in advance.

  I agree with you, Fraser and think it could be hardware related issue but I don't in any way you can fix it alone. Your laptop must be controlled by the Toshiba service provider.

  Contact the nearest service provider for Toshiba in your country, explain the situation and ask for help.

• Windows 7 - Live Photo Gallery Screen Saver - filename option, the peak, freezing and will not sleep

  I just upgraded from Windows XP. There are a few features that I miss and I don't know if there is anyway to get.
  1. under XP, you might have the name of the file appears in the corner of the image when the screen saver is running. Really useful to find the photos you want to send or ID'ing the image. A way to get this feature in Win7?
  2. the key would freeze the current image. In Win7, he now wakes the computer. In any case to freeze the pictures in screen saver mode?
  3. not sure how much it is related to the screen saver, but the monitor and computer are both set to get to sleep after 1 hour. Happens. Even a day or two later, she is still ongoing.

  Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

  Here is the solution.  Ssmypics.SCR of the copy of your old XP machine in the directory c:windows:system32 of Windows 7 machine.  then the old screen saver is available in settings.  has worked for me!

• Windows 7 Home Premium switch user screen appears after that so much time has passed well that slowed after the SmileDesktop with screen saver is installed, but do not know how to stop it.

  I used the selective startup to the Office of Smile, which replaces and updates the old Webshots Desktop, which includes the automatic download and auto downloads of images from their site as well as a screen saver.

  There nothing good. rest after so many minutes I connect get back a windows screen does not cause me to lose any data or stop all processes. All running processes continue, but it's the nagging drawback of signing as myself to the computer after having been automatically set user to switch mode. It's probably the fault of this program. In addition, before this Webshots desktop update which included also a screen saver Windows update the eve told me don't not to unplug my computer and that she had to deal with several updates of windows, so I went and the computer stop moments later. The next day was when the message for an update has been waiting for the SmileDesktop program, which is a program that mimics Webshots Desktop, as well as replace the Webshots Desktop. After installed SmileDesktop automatically changed my screen saver settings that were on any mode SmileDesktop screen saver mode. I clicked on the option to disable screen saver. That's when I first noticed the screen splash appearing after that so many minutes of inactivity, change that said user and then I started to worry.
  Norton has found no problem with my computer, and
  Finally, I gave up.

  Hello

  Thanks for asking this question to Microsoft Community.

  If I understand correctly, you want to disable the fast user switching option. Could you please answer a few questions before moving?

  Since when are you facing the issue? Do you have any security program installed on the computer? How many accounts is configured on the computer? Have you done a recent software or changes to the material on the computer?

  Here is an article that will help you to turn off the fast user switching option. Alternatively, you can uninstall Office to smile and check if it helps. You can also make the screen saver password that is built into Windows. Follow these steps:

  (a) open screensaver settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type screen saver, and then uncheck the box for password game screen.

  Hope this information is helpful and let us know if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help.

• Monitor turns off after 5 minutes & password protect when he wakes up. View properties - > screen saver "Wait: __minutes" and "on RESUME, Password Protect" checkboxes are grayed out.

  Help, please!

  I'm on a processor to work, so I've limited the administrative rights on the computer. My work function requires that I propose on the desktop to help others with professional assignments.

  THE PROBLEM: After 5 minutes of inactivity mouse/keyboard of the monitor off on the processor to work, she does not even go to a screensaver first, the screen turns off just in standby mode. When the mouse is moved or a key is struck, the screen lights up with a name/password user. I am developing carpal tunnel / repetitive stress syndrome having to retype my username and password so darn times per day, at the expense of some administrative setting of BOGUS Microsoft Windows... SHEESH!

  When I click on Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> display-> Display Properties-> screen saver , the "Wait: __minutes" and "On resume, password protect" checkboxes are GRISEES OUT [you can't edit these settings] . In addition, the default screen saver is set to void and no matter how many times I change it to something else and click 'Apply' return empty by default.

  TWO SERIOUS CONCERNS:

  Un When I'm away from my desk for more than 5 minutes, if someone arrives at my office, looking for me, it seems that my machine is completely off, so that co-workers can get the impression that I am out of the office when I could very well be just down the Hall.

  Two The Office I'm implemented in a motion sensor energy saving lights in the office, if the lighting turns off automatically too, so if I'm missing in the server room or help someone at their work station for an extended period of time, if someone comes to my office, looking for me, my machine seems to be completely off AND turned off the lights in my room , so it's as if I has not yet come to the office that day there! GRR...

  MICROSOFT, HELP US TO FIND a WORKAROUND: Help us make our work computers appear as they are wake / turned on while we are working work - especially when we ARE at work, just not physically sit behind our office temporarily work! GOOD GRIEF...

  Help us not to disturb our admins with specialized personal requests like these, they already have enough on their plate, ensuring that the network is in place and functioning.

  -JUDGES on Temp. Job Day @ assignment
  (Chained to a machine working at the expense of some fake Microsoft Windows administrator rights)

  PS. I have a screenshot of my locked dialog box display-> screen saver properties if you need more information. I wish I could download it right on this post to make things clear.

  PPS. Isn't it above described situation in the heart of the reason why employers more these days this demand we have iPhones, BlackBerry and SmartPhones? Because doctors and human beings humans with a bit of common sense finally realized that we must be sure that we move around during the day, at least several times per day, not only the stationary to our office location - watch a screen - ensuring that move us the mouse every five minutes so that our machine is not hibernate and look like it is not to do anything?

  PPP. If Microsoft can not help me with a work around for this issue because this issue is, 'something that I take with my 'network administrator',' kiss my _______! Everyone must be wrong because of the stupid administrative _ like this and if yes - I NEED TO KNOW - maybe I was just not cut for a job on time full computer.

  PEACE

  Hello JDG_SF, welcome.

  These options are very likely controlled by your GP (Group Policy) settings on your domain. Due to the nature of the work of rights how administrative, there is no way to work around this problem, unless you have access to change group policy settings that affect all the machines on your network.

  You would need to access or to change the settings of GP or find someone who already has access.

• Power Options and reset randomly sleep mode settings.

  It turns out that windows 7 will change ALL its parameters of power in itself! I'll let him sleep a few nights, come home and wake up... only to see my login screen. (I have the normally disabled option in power options). But all my work is always there, so the machine does not restart (or turn off and just resume hybrids) is for sure in s3. Power options check and everything is set crazy, not all back to the default values for either.

  I'm running Windows 7 x 64 Home Premium. This becomes extremely annoying to say the least... Can settle us this?

  * Edit * I wanted to add that what happens on 4 computers in my friends home even. 2 desktop and 2 laptop computers and all are supported by a Windows Home Server all running windows 7 x 64 home.

  Thank you dewbert I've found that if I go to the command prompt by using 'powercfg' I was able to turn off all the power settings (I like mine to be always running until I want to turn off without exception) I disabled standby, hibernation and set to never turn off monitor and several other parameters. Here is a link to these parameters and so far no more problem.

  was one of the first things I did with my pc to get rid of norton delivered pre-installed (bitdefender I don't know) and use microshaft security essentials (mse) with no problem more his light and does all these pop-ups as avira and others. also, I went to the ms updates and set it to download, but let me decide when to install and for updates of device, I put that let me decide because I had that feature really get in the way to install things like the new graphics drivers, kept dang thing beat me to the punch!

• Screen saver turns on and the keyboard or the mouse you want to start over.

  I bought a HP Pavilion desktop computer PC p6-2016 and started to use December 10, 2011. It goes into screen save mode and won't wake up. The HP screen comes without office or on what I was working on. Some time it turns on and does not display Desktop. I have you turn off and on again (2 or 3 times) to operate. Help!

  Make sure that you use the blue VGA cable OR white DVI cable to connect your pc to the screen. If both cables are connected, the pc can see the monitor as two different monitors, which can cause the behavior that you are experiencing.

• Help with the 'SAVE AS' option

  I can't do a right-click on a photo and have the option ' save under ' show up... if I right-click, the option is just not there.  Is this a problem in some sort of setting?  And if so where should I go to turn it on?

  Thank you, Whisper

  Whisper_53,

  Assuming that this problem occurs when in Internet Explorer, it happens on all websites of a few?
  As John said, you should be able to right click on the image and choose Save as. If you are unable to do it on some Web pages, it is likely that the web developer prevent you. It comes to the design of the web developer.
  Let me know if you need help!
