Ring in silver on screen

A few weeks ago an 'image' jumped on my desk (and it's always on the top of each application) a white/silver ring. I do not see it appear. It's just there the next time I went on my computer. It is about 1 inch in diameter and look exactly like a thin rounded demi-jonc, very sober, but the image includes a light shading for depth. I can't click on it, the move or get rid of it. The mouse is unclear it is there. It might as well be invisable or a part of the background, but it is not. I tried to change the background... it's still there. When I reboot, it comes back after a day. And it is in a different location on the screen whenever he comes back. It is hollow, like a ring so I can see what's behind it (within its borders). It is annoying and obviously shouldn't be there.

Any ideas?

Nina

Hi Nina,

Thank you for visiting the Forums of Microsoft Vista.

I think you have a hardware problem.

Try this, turn off your monitor for 4-5 minutes, then turn it back on.

If the ring has disappeared, your monitor is the culprit.

If it only disappears after a reboot, then it could be driver related.

Let us know what happens.

  • Equium M40X silver high marks too easily

    My new M40X has a silver coloured screen and cover top which marks if you look at all. He had a transparent plastic cover, but it is ugly and peeled off. It is stupid to do something so easily scratched when it is a portable device. Otherwise, it's a really great machine. Stupid design flaw or deliberate?

    Can do something about it. Angry. :-(

    Hello

    AFAIK this sheet of plastic on the top lid is only one temporary protection of transport. I also removed this sheet. I think that it s not a fault of design or something like that. In my opinion, the laptop is much better without this roadmap. In addition, I use a carry case for transportation and in my opinion, it of a reasonably protected.

    Take advantage of this device. It s really a cute notebook ;)

    Good bye

  • When I open a photo in Photoshop CC, the cursor becomes a 'blocked circle '.

    Any JPG photo, I try to open, when I try to change it, the cursor goes into a 'denial' as a 'blocked circle '. I've used Photoshop for years and have never encountered this problem before. What I am doing wrong? It simply doesn't let me edit JPG images. I also checked to see if my monthly payments were up to date, and they are. What gives?

    Several reasons can cause see ring stuck on your screen: selected layer's smart object, color mode, bit depth or selected tool cannot be used (the Eyedropper, 3D... material Drop tool 3D material).

    Make sure you have Image > Mode > RGB - 8-bit/channel, make sure you have Smart object selected in the layers panel and check what tool is selected or active.

  • My phone has stopped ringing, but it will vibrate and display on call incoming screen then what direction should I have it on ring outloud.  I don't remember changing anything?

    My phone has stopped ringing, but it will vibrate and display as a call comes in, so what settings should I have on that.  I don't remember changing anything?

    Have you checked the ring/silent switch on the left side of the phone?

    If the switch is slid to the back of the phone and you can see a red line above the switch (the side closest to the screen), it is in silent mode.

  • I have updated to iOS to 9.3.1 now my screen is in portrait mode and will not change landscape when the phone is turned. Also, it just goes straight to voicemail without ringing on my end when people call. All I can say all the settings are correct. ideas

    Looks like my question may have been corrupted.

    I updated my phone to iOS 9.3.1 last night. Now all my incoming calls go directly to Voicemsil without ringing on my end. My sound and message settings appear normal for me. Also, my screen rotates out of sight from portrait to landscape view for photos FB etc...

    suggestions to solve problems?

    It seems that if you have the lock of portrait and do not disturb activated. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to call the control center. Look at the two circular icons on the top right row. They are white? If so, tap on them to turn them off. One resembles a Crescent Moon, the other as an arrow in a circle with a padlock in the Center.

  • 8 GB silver screen vs black britghtness

    I compared my 8 GB clip silver with a black 8 GB friends clip.

    Just found out that the brightness level of the screen is a little 2-3 times higher with the same firmware setting.

    I also compared my clip with a clip of rose gen1 2 GB, same problem, my brightness is a bit much.

    It's because of the glass smoked covering my clip (can not see the edges of the screen, other models have covered with clear-type display)?

    I need an answer.

    Yes - the question is well known with the 4 GB (Silver) Clip.  Although I do believe that it is a factor of x 2-3.

  • Z10 blackBerry screen rotation and lengthen the time of a call incoming rings before the call to voicemail

    I have the BB Z10 and sincerely want to learn how:

    (1) rotate a screen that turned into a rectangle but must have back on the horizontal screen - have tried the lock refresh and rotation - both without success

    (2) with incoming calls, I need to lengthen the time before that the appellant go to voicemail

    Thank you

    Hello DERC,.

    The rotation of the screen may depend on the application you are using, some applications only performed in specific, portrait orientation or landscape. Example: some games work in the landscape and the hub can automatically rotate between portrait and landscape.

    Regarding the amount of rings before answering machine, it is a service provider controlled setting, I suggest you contact your service provider for more information.

    I would like to know if you have any further questions.

    Thank you.

  • TIFF files created in Silver Efex Pro and split toned in Lightroom 6.1 look more saturated in the view 'fit to screen' in the development in the library module module. It is to be fixed?

    Everyone knows this?

    I'm have not used Silver Efex pro, but understand now you're working with B & W images are weakening in LR. What you are likely to see is not a tint or color difference, but a "lighter" image It appears as less color saturation, since the image is monotonous.

    As Gene McCullagh mentioned this is due to the differences in library modules and develop an overview of rendering the preview to view fewer images of 1:1. If a high ISO image is sharper and has asked insufficient Luminance Noise reduction may seem brighter and less strong in the library less than 1:1 view module (i.e. Fit). Fortunately, there's an easy solution, as explained here:

    Re: Develop module & library module are not matching

    If it is not 'fix' the issue, then you can have an incompatible monitor profile (ICC Version 4 or LUT type):

  • Blue screen and bad RAM memory?

    My MBP 2011 early all just stopped working yesterday, it worked very well without any problem of performance for the last 5 years, and then suddenly a blue screen (of death) and it has problems starting.

    He will ring the Bell to start, display the bar loading and Apple, and then there will be a glitch on the big screen (horizontally) 1 inch above the Apple, after that, the fans speed up and all that I see a gray screen, not user interface.

    I zapped the PRAM/MSC and tried the unique memory sticks, I have no spare RAM on hand, but who will order soon.

    Tips to solve this problem?

    AHT says this - 65/4MEM/4000000000: 0x84f6f918

  • Rings of activity Apple Watch series 2

    picked up the new watch today. Everything works well except the rings of the 3 activity. Ive had the watch for about 5 hours and none of the rings are logging information (booth hours, cal, etc.). I went for a walk in the open air with the application of the workout and it connected ok but this adds nothing to the rings nor did he record how many feet I walked to. Am I missing something?

    Hello

    Check that you have configured the application of activity on your watch:

    • When you view the time on your watch dial, press the icon of rings of activity / complication, or;
    • Go the home screen (via a simple press on the digital Crown) and tap the app of the activity (coloured rings).

    To begin, you will need to enter personal information.

    Also check these settings:

    • On your iPhone, go to: settings > privacy > Motion & Fitness - check that fitness and health monitoring are enabled.
    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > privacy > Motion & Fitness - check that heart rate and fitness tracking are both enabled.
    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > detection of wrist - it lights up.
    • If you have also enabled Passcode, unlock your watch after placing it on your wrist.

  • iPhone 5 s no ring or vibrate for calls after update IOS 10

    I have a 5 s iPhone that worked perfectly for over 2 years until I've done 10 IOS updated.  Now it won't ring or vibrate for incoming calls.  It will give sound advice for all applications, but not the phone.  I checked the switch on the side, the sound settings, the mute under accessibility, do not disturb and alert by phone settings.  Everything is as it should be to have audibles.  This phone was in a box of Otter for protection since I got it.  Any ideas of what anything else I could do to fix this?  Miss me him each call unless I happen to look at the screen.

    Have you tried to change the ringtone in the sounds? Try using set a different ringtone temporarily. In addition, with the phone unlocked, press the volume buttons on the side and see what shows on the home screen. You see the volume and it does not show ring or something else? You use a custom or purchased ringtone, or a ringtone native iOS? Some people have reported problems of ringtone on various devices when you try to use the House or purchased made ringtones.
