Screen displaying unusual effects
My problem comes in two parts.
First of all, my screen started to display the oddest Visual effects. Whenever there is a black pixel on the screen, it turns red. Whenever there is a white pixel, it turns cyan. Indeed, at the moment, I'll have to type on a Web page entirely cyan. However, if I show someone a screencapture, nothing particularly untoward appears - they get a regular image to a blank Web page, but the resolution is reduced slot capacity of my laptop.
Which brings me to my second problem.
My screen seems to be perpetually in 1024 x 768 and seems to only go to this resolution. In addition, I can't adjust parameters of the screen (brightness, contrast etc.) so, as standard, I checked my driver files to find that my integrated graphics Intel has been replaced by a VGA Compatible video controller. Yet, seems to be an easy fix. I try to reinstall my integrated graphics driver to find the following message is displayed:
Setup failed to install one or more device drivers.
Setup will close.
No code/dump/error log was found of that. So I tried to delete this video controller VGA Compatible and then repeat the process. This time, the same error message that past, as well as a second in my device manager, that was something in the sense of:
Windows found driver software but has encountered an error.
Access is denied.
Well, wait a minute. I am an administrator, I execute the program elevated, and yet I'm still not access?
Summary:
The screen displays atypical errors
Impossible to install devices even on a social rank higher due to access denied

My laptop closed spontaneously mode 256 colors and the "battery". When I tried to turn it on again it would not respond. I ended up using Ctrl-Alt-Del to stop it completely. When I turned the computer back on it gave me a message on the "color mode" bubble and the screen looked "not normal." I clicked on the bubble who said it would be 'restore' or something to that effect to the screen. When he finished, I had a smaller screen display large icons. Then I went into Control Panel and tried to get back to my original windows desktop and after much research, etc. have a "smaller version" of a desktop with the margins side black (approximately 1 inch wide). I can't my screen fills the entire screen, regardless of what I do. The option "stretch" in advanced settings is not the case. What can I do?

Tecra A9 - Remove Volume on-screen display/indicator
Hello
I have a laptop series Tecra A9 running xp pro 32 bit and I am trying to remove the volume indicator on the screen. The laptop has a volume wheel on the edge closest to the user, and if it's on the knees, the volume knob gets hit all the time.
Whenever it is typed, the volume on the indicator screen appears which becomes VERY annoying.
I tried to find a way to change/edit that during a period of time and can't find anything conclusive. I was able to change some .dll and .exe files to change the picture a bit, but it has not completely solved my problem.
I guess my questions are the following:
1. is there a way to disable the screen display on only for the indication of volume?
2. is there a a way to disable the wheel of scrolling shortcut to change the volume, keeping all other shortcut keys?
3. is it possible to disable the wheel of scrolling shortcut and use a different way to change the volume. I found many other utilities to change the volume of the laptop that allow different variants of shortcut keys that I like to use instead of the scroll wheel.Let me know if any other information is needed.
Any suggestion would be appreciated :)
Maybe you could just cover the wheel with little electrical tape volume and use the command of Windows Volume to change the volume instead?

HP pavilion dv6-6c01ej: HP pavilion dv6-6c01ej screen display does not
Hi, I have a HP pavilion dv6-6c01ej, and I want to use the on-screen display to see, for example when the volume when I turn upwards or downwards (also for changes in brightness and so..).
I looked in programs and features in Control Panel and I saw that I have the latest version of the driver (version 1.3.5).
I couldn't find the actual prgoram to the start menu (I don't even know if it exists).
I tried to download it again so I can try to uninstall and install, but the file is not found, using this link:
http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp55001-55500/sp55152.exe
From there:
I don't know if it's the same for all driver pavilion dv6 pc.
Also, I tried downloding the HP MediaSmart for it, but the download failed for an unknown reason.
So, how can I enable this feature?
Hello:
See if this version works...
