saving screen and windows MediaPlayer.

Sometimes my screen saver does not work.  With "preview", it's good, but it does not work on its own.  This does not work all the time.  Right now I'm listening to windows media player, if there is a problem.  I used different designs, but nothing Screensaver doesn't change.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Hello jcampbell46,

Thank you for your response back!

When you open your Windows Media Player tries to change or verify the settings.

Select the 'Alt' key to display the options.  Then select 'Tools'-> 'Options'->
In the Options tab, you will be in the 'Player' tab
Make sure you have a check in the box for the option "allow screen saver during playback.

Please let us know status.  Thank you!

    Hello guys :D

    I had this problem yesterday and look really weird because I use several method to solve for 'Blocking with the Welcome screen' or 'Windows Explorer is not responding. So here's the problem:
    As I said, I had the windows with the "Welcome" screen stucks But some time later, about 15 minutes that it full load. Well, THIS IS more BIG PROBLEM: my office was black with my cursor! About 10 minutes, this return to normal, BUT the icons are not loaded. And when I click on any folder or right click of mouse, WINDOWS EXPLORER IS NOT the ANSWER (error status code c0000185 InPageCoFire) and need to restart. I restart and once again, does not. My laptop is now like that, turn on, wait 15 minutes and watch "Windows Explorer is not responding" and turns off.
    It makes me really mad. So I really appreciate for your help. Sorry if this question was asked before

    Uh, seems to be still the gel, you can try another way! Enter again the Advanced Boot Options, then choose 'Safe Mode'. Your loading windows basic drivers and services that could help you get into the windows desktop without encountering any problems. Once you're in safe mode, tap Start menu and search for "cmd". Right-click on 'cmd' and select them "run as Administrator". When the command prompt appears, check your disk file system error hard by typing "chkdsk c: /f" (do not type the quotation marks) if "c:" is a drive letter on your Windows 7. Restart your computer, and it checks file system of the disk for errors. When the analysis was finished and reboot, re-enter the Advanced Boot Options, choose "Safe Mode" again. And then open command prompt with administrator, and then type this command "sfc/scannow" (do not type the quotation marks). SFC (System File Checker) can check your file system were healthy or not. Wait until after the analysis. Then, restart your computer. If these tips don't help, update your status question. :)

  • After using a third party partition manager program left to extend my Windows 8 partition, the system of Windows 8 start to a black screen and Windows 8 partition of the drive letter has changed

    Original title: problems of Windows 8

    I have Windows 7 (32 bit) and Windows 8 (64-bit) is installed in a dual boot. I tried to extend the partition of Windows 8 with a third party partition manager. Subsequently, I restarted after having learned so much.

    Later, the first thing I saw was that the locked screen image is replaced by a blue color. Photos of the user are also missing. Once connected, it took a long time for windows everything ready, and I'm stuck in a black screen with the mouse pointer.

    I entered in Safe Mode and found that the drive for Windows 8 letter has been changed (C: = Windows 7;) D: = recovery partition; E: = Windows 8, new drive letter; F: = Windows 8, old drive letter), I tried to change the drive letter, but it does not work.

    Partition of Windows 7 works well (it is what I currently use to put this problem), and I can access the data in the partition of Windows 8. I tried the methods of different repair without result (such as chkdsk and sfc/scannow).

    Can someone help me with this please? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    I understand that you have a problem of black screen with Windows 8 and the drive letter for the partition of Windows 8 is also changed. This problem is due to the use of the third party partition manager program because it affects the registry files and causes the instability of the system.

    Try to run auto repair from the Windows recovery environment and check if that helps.

    Method 1: start the recovery environment with installation of Windows 8 media.

    It is another way to boot the PC and launch recovery tools when something goes wrong with the operating system.

    Please follow the steps below. Insert the DVD to install Windows 8 on DVD-ROM and restart your computer.

    (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

    (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

    (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

    (d) select Troubleshooting to Choose an option screen.

    (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

    (f) click Auto repair of Advanced Options screen.

    (g) following, choose the operating system by clicking on its button.

    (h) Windows 8 will be looking for problems on the hard drives and verify that all required files are intact.


    Method 2: Run the restoration of the system of the Advanced Options screen.

    System Restore to restore your computer to a previous state, quickly and easily without losing any of your files and personal settings. Sometimes when you install programs or drivers, they can affect some system settings and prevent other programs to function properly. You can use system restore to restore these settings to their previous state

    Follow these steps:

    (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

    (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

    (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

    (d) select Troubleshooting from the Choose an option screen.

    (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

    (f) select System restore.

    After the system restore your documents and files will always remain to their previous state.

    If you do not install Windows 8 media, I suggest you connect to any other computer and create a floppy disk to install Windows 8. Using this disk, you can run the troubleshooting provided methods.

    How to create the installation media for a PC refresh or reset:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

    You can also try the same steps using the bootable USB key. You must select USB as the first boot to the BIOS device.

    Note: Microsoft don't recommend any third-party partition manager program because it corrupts the registry files and cause the instability of the system.

    Write to us if you're still having problems. We will help you.

  • PhotoShop CS6 will work with screen tactile Dell and Windows 10?

    I'm looking to replace my Dell laptop with a 15.6 laptop "series of Inspiron 5000, which has 16 GB RAM 1 TB HD, Intel i7 processor and an AMD Radeon R5 M335 4 GB DDR3 video card.  It is a touch screen with Windows 10.  In talking with Dell technical support, I was told that PhotoShop CS6 FONCTIONNERA NOT with Windows 10 not with the touchscreen even though technology Adobe said it will work with Windows 10 on its "required page.  Dell said that it works with WIndows 7.  I'm confused.  The Adobe forums seem to suggest that Photoshop CS6 will work, so with touch screen and WIndows 10, is there something in the specifications of laptop above Dell that suggests that I'm having a problem?  Will it be buggy?  PhotoShop CS6 will work only with a mouse and not the touch screen?  Is this a problem with the video card? I can't find enough information to feel confident about ordering this Dell laptop forums.  I can go to the 7000 series with a 4 GB NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960 M graphics, but I'm not a gamer.

  • YouTube videos are green for a few seconds when they start, quickly moving and switch between fullscreen and windowed mode

    suddenly, last night something happened with youtube. whenever I run a video on youtube its green for a few seconds, then it goes back to normal. its also green when I fast forward/jump and when I change between full screen and windowed. I linked to a screenshot of how it looks as if I googled this problem I find something else where people get a green screen but no picture at all and that it lasts the entire video.

    I tried updating the drivers for my graphics card. I tried to play on my nvidia card rather than use my intel graphics hd 4600 and still got the same result, but instead to get a green image, it was really dark almost black. I also tried to reinstall flash even downgrade to an earlier version, but nothing does. and the strange thing is that I only have this problem on youtube and only through firefox so I even tried reinstalling firefox, but that did not work either

    I found 2 things of this kind of help.
    the first solution is to disable hardware acceleration, but instead to get a green image for a few seconds, image frozen for the same period of time and then play and she is like when its Green, when I start it up, jump and change to full or windowed.

    the second solution I found in support for mozilla, to change the HTML5 player. But even if this player works great I really like it. for some reason any the break from the drive when I change between full screen and windowed mode and I don't like these pop-up windows get you that its now in full screen and I can press ESC to quit.

    These are just little things, but I would like to return the standard player.
    If anyone knows anything that could help me with this please let me know.

    This is the screenshot:

    What a little wild speculation?

    YouTube uses a technology that has chopped videos in individual pieces, which is probably video serve more easily, but could create more opportunities for issues when moving in the video. There is an add-on called Center of YouTube that allows you to disable this technology and back to the days of one big file. Might be worth a try.

  • NB520 - black screen when the POST and Windows 8.1

    Good afternoon!

    I'm in a strange problem.
    My netbook screen shows black during POST (Bios) and sometimes shows a few white lines, as interference.

    If I boot Windows OS 8.1 the problem persists.
    If I run Ubuntu, I can see everything normally.

    I looked on the connection of the screen and it touched to check the wire is ok, but is the same.
    If I connect an external VGA display I can see straight.

    Years, I changed the screen because it brokes.
    In the last months, I could see lines on the screen especially during the POST.

    It could be a screen issue, son...?
    The screen does not support some frecuences now?

    Thank you and sorry for my English.

    My netbook is a * NB520 *.

    Hello

    I am facing this problem when I try to install win98 on the machine above Portege 7220 (/ PIII650/64/12/13 t/M), following on its docking station...

    I boot from a floppy disk and cd rom (e:\) access in order to run the installer of windows 98SE. Once I typed e:\setup.exe I get a black screen and the computer crashes. However I can install windows NT or 2000 on this machine, and also the windows 98SE cd works ok on other computers, i.e. no black screen!

    No idea what is the problem?

    > I that it was a problem with VGA, but it can display the perfect windows color flag when he entered for Windows
    I m interesting in your state.

    Are you able to connect in windows; Yes or no?

    I don't know if this problem could be related to dysfunction of the m graphic card or display.

    It would be advisable to connect the laptop to the external display to make sure if the same would appear on the second monitor.
    If so, then a problem of graphics card would be possible

    Anyway, in both cases the ASP must be contacted because the defective part must be replaced if it s a hardware problem
