  • Preview screen turns black when you use the slider to soften ultra key

    Hello

    I'm working on a video, including a greenscreen. That is why I use the ultra key to make the transparent green screnscreen. Whenever I touch the slider "soften" Ultra key, windos preview blackens. I can't get it back to normal until I restart the first. Version 2015.4.

    This issue is being investigated. So far it has been reproduced with acceleration GPU on Windows. What is the case on your system? Also, could you provide your operating system, graphics card and if you use CUDA or OpenCL?

    A possible solution is to go into project settings > General and set the Mercury Playback Engine software only, when you use the parameter to soften.

    Thank you.

  • Satellite L405D-11V - freezes and the screen goes black when you watch the video

    OK, so I have the Toshiba Satellite L405D-11V, I had a breakdown, basically, the computer freezes at any time and the screen would go black, with the fan and lights still ongoing, this could be at the start, or a few hours using the laptop, so I decided to ring Toshiba technology support and they arranged for my laptop to collect and be expelled for repairs.

    I was able to track repairs online via the tracking service and was able to see what they were doing to my laptop, he said that they have ordered a part, it was underway and the repairs are completed.

    However, I got the laptop back today, I turn it on, all right, I start using the cell phone that everything is fine, so I decide to watch a video on youtube, and it freezes again, so I turned off now pressed the power button, hoping he wasn't that a large, I turn back to and load the video once again it freezes and the screen goes black again, after that whenever I am watching a video or a game, it causes the computer to crash and freeze as before the repairs. So there is always a mistake, but I'm not sure what to do

    Its still under warranty, I bought the laptop from the Comet, but I really don't want to send the laptop for repairs again and find it comes back with the same fault, is it interesting sending distributed, maybe see if the comet will replace the laptop as its still less than a year to buy the laptop, or it'll just be useful to save all the hassle and buy a new laptop? If this fault happened to someone else, I could use you some help, and if someone could shed some light regarding what could be bad?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    You changed something on the configuration after you got your notebook back from repair? You update a driver, or something else?
    What operating system you use on your L405D satellite?

    To be honest it is really hard to say why it happens because technicians test to check if your laptop is running correctly.

    In my opinion you should try to update the display driver. Maybe it's the origin of the problem of s
    If this isn't the case, I recommend installing Windows from Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. These parameters are pre-tested by Toshiba and should work.

    If you still have the problem, you must contact the technicians again. I mean you could track the online repair and according to your assignment, everything worked well during repair, so in my opinion he should t be a problem to contact guys exactly.
    Explain your very detailed problem. I think that everything can be clarified then. :)

  • Satellite U920T - the screen goes black when you drag the keyboard

    This morning, I turned on my U920T-10 days but the screen remained black.

    At first, I thought the screen was broken, but in mode 'Tablet', the screen became. Now when I slide the keyboard the screen goes black again.

    How can this problem be solved?

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a bad connection somewhere between the screen and the motherboard.
    This could be possible reason for failure to display while sliding in and out.

    I guess this can be resolved easily and I think that it is a job for a technician (authorized service provider). I recommend you contact the service technician in your country to get the laptop fixed. I hope that the warranty is still valid in order to repair for free.

    I hope that this can be corrected. I keep fingers crossed.

    Hi, thanks for your help, but this is how I fixed it. Hope this helps others

    However, to do this: go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash and do a RIGHT CLICK on the logo that is being charged. THEN: Navigate down until "settings", click it, and you should have the choice: "disable hardware acceleration". NOTE: If you do NOT have this choice, study the icons down quickly: on MY screen, the left-most is an icon that looks like a video monitor: click on it and give you the opportunity to "disable hardware acceleration".

    It works, if you can get it done before you get a BSOD! AND do not take the life of your computer in your hands by updating your video drivers. I do not really recommend doing that!

  • Screen BACK up when you start the computer by using Windows XP

    I did a reinstall of my OS to Windows XP.  Now, every time I turn on the computer, or restart, I get the following message appears on a black screen (BACK):

    (I use the quotes to the messages from the computer).

    "Choose the operating system to start".

    "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" (this option is highlighted)

    "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" (repeated).

    "Use the top and down arrow keys to move the selection of your choice."

    "Press ENTER to choose."

    "Seconds until highlighted choice will begin automatically."  (There's a digital countdown to 25 to zero... and the computer continues normally)

    "For advanced troubleshooting startup options and for Windows, press F8."

    If I press the key "enter", with the first option highlighted, the computer will resume as usual.  But I've never met this before start screen.

    How can I get the computer to restart normally without stopping on this screen?

  • Screen goes black when picking up the phone

    It doesn't happen all the time, but when I take my laptop in rise or move it all to her, the screen suddenly goes back to sleep / going. I push buttons, but he is not waking up. I have to close and open it, then returns to normal. This behavior is normal or should I get it checked?

    Perhaps a date with an Apple Store Genius, could help if they can

    See checking for problems of circuit or the wire between the display and the main body.

    Usually a visit of engineering cost the advice is free. Other measures for more

    carefully test and difficult physical problems would cost. If there is no Apple store

    (official retail) in your region or country, is an Apple authorized Service provider

    a place of contact to have a technician inspect and test the computer.

    There may be a faulty connection in the circuit between the display and the

    other components that provide data to the screen, in the body and food.

    If the computer has an AppleCare plan into force, which should cover a repair.

    The other possibility, if you had an old laptop, would involve the

    hard drive; Player-rotation in some laptops will cease to run if the

    computer is suddenly moved. This could affect the display... I suspect a thread.

    In any case...

    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Screen touch problems when you use the converter

    We just bought an Envy 27 tilt to our Caravan for all the good characteristics that HP has and TV

    Cause sometimes will want to run the HP converter 12v 400 watt true sine wave.

    We tried this to find a problem, the computer functioned well but the touchscreen ran a muck and did not work as usual.

    So after much googling and some reading I'd like here to answer fo HP.

    As I can't believe, I'd be the first to come on this problem and want to put it all in one in a motor home.

    What I read, it could be a matter of dirty power of the inveter, but we thought we have purchase the best brand true sine wave, we could leave our guys of battery here in Australia.

    Any advice would be received with gratitude.

    Thanks Lou, first of all for your time and on the other hand for your thoughts and advice.

    We have it finally working outside a performance of the inverter with number.

    But I have to say without any worthy of official telephone hotline support of HP.

    Lou, I'm working through several of your suggestions, pending the official response to my survey on what brand or type of UPS or UPS I should use with my desire to tilt.

    Well, it is very sad that a massive company like HP with what you would think would be a very large R & D service, cannot answer a simple question, like what type of UPS or UPS if they recommend to work with the touchscreen of the tilt.

    The poor people, I was talking to, had no idea what I was talking about, or what I was trying to do. How a computer call center peason knows not what a UPS, I can understand on an inverter, but the tech people, these are things really very similar in the different boxes.

    OK, if you have this problem with your inverter and touch screen, first of all not all inverters are equal even in the same brand that I discovered. I want to thank my provider inverter & battery for their time and for allowing me to put in place the HP Envy of tilt on the back of their store and try different UPSs, inverters and batteries.

    I'll talk about brands here, not rat on the brand, but as it may be useful to someone else in Australia in the future. It seems that my "Epower DCAC 400w 12v true sine inverter" wasn't at the height when it came to clean AC power required to operate the touch screen without problem.

    In the end, we tried a "Epower DCAC 1000w true Sine Wave 12v', really just to give it a go, thinking it would be a better to be the same brand as the unit of 400w, well it worked quite OK

    This unit of true sine wave Epower 12 v 1000w, fixed our problem with touchscreen and ran HP Envy tilt as if it is running on AC power.

    If anyone is interested for camper here, I found this configuration to draw between 4 and 5 amperes of batteries of 12v and about 41 Watts @ runing 240 volts a you tube clip.

    Well it is my experiences and the final result, I hope this helps someone else in the future, I'm sure that HP will not be able to.

    Thank you all.

    Hello

    I know this problem, it s just a bug with media player and the graphics drivers (mainly the media player causes the error it s). Please, if you want to watch something on TV and then playback must be STOPPED BEFORE you from the screen. Once you have changed the screen, enable playback and it should work.

    Otherwise, go on www.videolan.org website, download the latest version of VLC Player and do it with him, it should work for sure. I never start playback of a movie or something when the screen not changed front on television that the screen alone.
