• Screensaver problem - video card program requires a Direct3D-compatible video card

  Cannot run the screensaver as it requires a newer video card or one that is comppatible with direct 3d, and I can't put my computer in mode "Eve". I am running Windows Vista.

  Update your video driver or select a different screen saver.  When you run Windows Update, it would probably be the list updated driver for your video card in the optional updates to registration.  To change the screen savers, right-click on an empty area of your desktop, click Properties, and then click screen saver and choose one.

  I hope this helps.  Good luck.

• Satellite M70-360: CEekey.eke can not run because its the missing dll

  I accidently deleted the ekecioctl.dll and now whenever I start my laptop (Satellite M70-360) I get an error message saying that CEekey.eke can not run because its the missing dll. Anyone know where I can download the dll?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The CEekey.exe seems to be part of the Toshiba E - key utility.
  Therefore, you should try to reinstall this utility to obtain the keys working again.

  Another clue; have you tried to restore the operating system to the early time point?
  XP supports the System Restore tool. You can easily put the BONE at an early stage and the E key should work again I hope ;)

• What does that mean? -This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.

  I tried viewing a presentation power point and got to page 2 and my computer crashed.  Thought on... what he did previously trying to display a PPP file, but I thought that it was not my computer to the actual file.  now I have my doubts and also this time an error message came that said... This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.  can someone tell me what I should do next?

  You left out which version of DirectX has been shown.

  As far as I know, your Intel 945GM should support DirectX 9 and because you have XP sp3, you must have at least DirectX 9 installed.

  I met the following, but it shouldn't apply to Powerpoint:

  Some such as the Intel 945 GM Intel video cards have a design limitation which may cause problems when you try to run the Source Engine games. 3D graphics kernel does not support transformation of material, light and the vertex shader to similar technologies, which is an important part of the pipeline of 3D acceleration. Instead, this functionality is emulated in software that can reduce the compatibility and performance with 3D games.

  I don't have a solution for you (assuming that DXDIAG, in fact, reports to have DirectX 9 or higher).  You can see if you install a new driver support, but if it were me, I would be first contact Acer technical support or ask your question in another forum as one of the following conditions:

  Intel graphics Forum: http://communities.intel.com/community/tech/graphics
  Forum PowerPoint: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/powerpoint (select the corresponding forum for your version of Powerpoint).  Include the results of DxDiag, including the version of DirectX.  If there is something unusual about the image that causes the crash, include this info as well.

  Normally, for notebook/laptop computer, it is better to get the drivers of the mfr of computer rather than the manufacturer of the device.

  Acer drivers for your computer are here: http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=535 (you want the Intel VGA for XP driver)

  Intel has a newer driver: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Internet+Devices&ProductLine=Netbooks&ProductProduct=Mobile+Intel%C2%AE+945GM+Express+Chipset+Family

• restoring iPhone "requires a more recent version of iOS.

  iPhone running iOS 9.2.1 + 6.  Saved on older MacBook 10.6.8 which is the latest version of the operating system will install running.  Phone has been replaced earlier today from the Apple Store.  Now try to simply restore the backup.  Error message that appears in iTunes on the MacBook, it's that it "requires a more recent version of iOS."  I found the Apple HT203434 document that describes this problem and advised me to use the option Set Up as new Phone, then download the latest iOS, then reset the phone, erasing "all content and settings."  Fact.  The problem persists again whenever I am asked to connect the iPhone to iTunes.

  We have 3 other, much more recent Macs in the household.  Mine is the MacBook Pro for mid-2015.  Is it possible to transfer the backup of this older MacBook on my new MacBook Pro and manage the restoration of this way?  Is there an another workaround?  Of course, if I knew it would be a problem, the iPhone 6 + wouldn t have been saved on this laptop more old.

  Thank you!

  Well, if you get the message of iOS, then it means the iOS device is not as recent as the iOS which was used to make the backup. Therefore, you should see if you can connect the device to iTunes and click on update first. Once the iOS is updated, you should be able to access the backup.

  See you soon,.

  Help, please!

  

  Hello

  I just tried this widget to my and and he is able to create a thumbnail in my library panel. Seems that there is a corruption with the files in the local library.

  I suggest you remove this widget in the library panel (select the item in the library panel and click on the trash can at the bottom right) and then add it back by double-clicking the file .mulib for the widget.

  Let me know if the problem persists.

  Kind regards

• Screen saver does not not Windows 7. New required video card?

  I'm not able to use a screen saver, but it is related to the video card.  The error message says "this screen saver requires a new video card, or one that is compatible with Direct3D".

  Someone already asked this question but not answered in the forum I have seen IE: the issue of the video card.

  Thank you!

  This problem occurs even if the video card is capable of running the screen saver and is compatible with Direct3D. So, you don't have to install a video card. All you need to do is apply the hotfix provided in the link below that will correct the problem.

• Sansa Clip: Loading screen saver: can manually enable us to extend the life of the screen?

  What charge the Sansa Clip: after an hour, the screen turns white (a screen saver, I guess).

  I would like to activate the screen saver immediately, to extend the duration of the display.  Is it possible to do?

  Or maybe in a version of firmware future, so a sequence button turn it on.

  Unless the life of the screen is much longer than the lifetime of the unit in general...

  Thanks for your time.

  As far as I know, you can't do it manually now.

  This is the reason why some people with an adapter for recharging: when charging via AC, the display shuts off after setting the time of the backlight of your display.

  Indeed, even if it bugs some of us, it is likely that display time of 1 hour during USB charging will not significantly affect the ultimate lifecycle of the screen, in the end; If I remember correctly, the screen has a life expectancy of 5000 hours or something like that (sorry, it's been a while) - it is 208 days of fulltime show all day/night long.  By the time you reach this point, probably, if ever, the battery life may have been reached, or you probably may have gone to another player, as technology improves over time.  But it's all unique to each user (if you are more rare than the user who guard 8 hours per day, life of the screen display will be reached about 1.7 years; if you use your player lot every day and are charging every day, charging via AC could save you 365 hours of projection of the time per year (, the equivalent of almost a month of 1.7 years screen time), and so you can recharge via AC just to cover as much as possible.  (More realistic, if your screen is on for 2 hours a day, which is still a lot, unless you really keep your screen on a lot, the screen should last for about 7 years or more - think where you will be and what technology you are using maybe at this time.)

• HP solutions Center can not run because your installation of the device is not full (Windows 7)

  I downloaded and tried to install HP Photosmart C309a all-in-One Driver Software 14.0 Rel.5 in a new installation of Windows 7 Professional (not an upgrade). Installation works very well until the moment of the connection to the printer.

  I tried the wired and wireless network connections. The screen "Found network printers" lists the printer with the correct IP address and MAC address. Network Diagnostics screen shows any errors. The screen "Installation of your printer" poster "Detected printer", then says "printer setup has failed to complete." Retry does not help. Removing and reinstalling the software do not help.

  The Windows devices and printers control panel shows the printer as "Series of HP Photosmart C309a (redirect 2)". I am able to print a Test Page from Windows printer without error. The 'print options' are also available.

  The printer works fine with other computers on my home network, one running XP and a Vista running.

  How can I get the software installation to complete successfully and provide the printer the HP Solutions Center?

  Thanks for your help.

  Well, I have solved my problem. I'm not sure that these steps are necessary, but here's what I did.

  1 follow the instructions in "Completely uninstall and reinstall the HP software" HP. In particular, 'clear the temporary files and folders' and 'Disable Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs and any other lighting programs' before reinstall you, then "Reactivate startup programs", after the reinstallation.

  2. install base drivers, and NOT the complete software package with applications.

  3. If the basic install works, then install ALL the applications (eg Solution Center). Do not try to install some applications but not others.

  4 remove the applications that you do not (e.g., Online Shop).

  Maybe the steps 2-4 are not mandatory, but they worked for me.

• Can not run programs that require an internet connection

  My computer has been acting weird lately. I use the Zune marketplace and Playon for my PS3 and everytime I try to login or use programs that they say that they cannot connect to the server, or the bandwidth is low, even if I get 3mps. Even when I try to download templates for Microsoft word in the program or try to access my itunes store. I tried all the troubleshooting various tech support people have come to me as allowing programs on my AVG, disable my firewall, etc and even get rid of it completely but not luck. I can use internet very well and that you have run all the antivirus programs, spyware and malware, I and as usual everything comes out clean. I use a 2wire modem/router with AT & T DSL and I restarted and reset the unit. My wife can do it all on his laptop computer so computer m. My computer did something weird to the other day, he could get on the internet but then I got rid of my proxy and still, it was nice but my programs don't always work. I also called my ISP and there is nothing wrong with the line, but when I use the AT & T self support tool that it says that there is a problem with my connection even if he does not show it on their end. It is also said that my line, DSL and Ethernet status is down all what that means.
  I am running windows Vista 64 on a HP Pavilion m9340f.
  I'm OK with computers, but not great, and'd appreciate any help there ' All can give.

  Thank you!

  PS is there a good trustworthy program that I can download to search and solve problems like those that might help? I have Glary Utilities but that did not work...

  I feel like such a decoration, I disabled the proxy in firefox, but totally forgot to do in Internet Explorer. Thank you very much, everything works again.
