Screen saver shows photos in black and white

I have my screensaver set to display the photos in Windows Live Photo Gallery.   It will work just great... then all of a sudden the images change color in black and white.  Can't understand why.  Any help will be appreciated.

I simply select photo gallery of my screensaver and it runs through images in this gallery... I select those specific.
I haven't seen any link with the file extensions and don't really know when it changes color in black and white.  I have my leave of the House, back & screen saver is now black and white photos... the color is no longer.  The next time he lights up, it lights up in color.
I have not run that a photo slideshow so can't answer that.
I use a desktop PC - HP Pavilion PC p6110f
I have a HP2009m monitor.
That's happened since I installed Windows 7... not before.
Hope you can help.
Thank you.

Hi vikingdatter

Open Customize / screen saver.

Select the screen saver Windows Live Photo Gallery .

Click on the settings button.

In the drop-down menu use this theme , one of the options is black and white.

If the random option is there, it will automatically to different themes, and sometimes switch to the black and white theme.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for using Windows 7

    My freecell turns black and white screen and strange behavior. I use ms vista. It also shows only the #8181 game. It never happens on my XP machine. Thanks for the reply in advance.

    Hi Karen,.

    a. Since when are you facing this problem?

    b. did you change to your system recently?

    c. This only happens with free cell?

    Method 1: I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the game and check.

    2. click on the Start button and then click Control Panel.

    3. under programs, click on uninstall a program.

    4. in the pane tasks, click on turn Windows features on or off.

    5. in the windows features list, click the plus sign next to games.

    6. under games clear the checkbox for freecell.

    7. you receive a warning message in a pop-up window. Click Yes.

    8. now restart the computer and then go to Windows features turn on or off features. Place a cell check free of charge. You receive a warning message in a pop-up window. Click Yes.

    9. restart your computer.

    Method 2: If the method above is not enough, you can try to create the new user profile and see if the problem still occurs there.

    To create a new profile, you must first create a new user account. When the account is created, a profile will also be created.

    1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.

    2. click on manage another account.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    4. type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

    If the new user profile resolves the problem, you can screw the corrupted profile and re - install the applications and programs.

  • 23 Firefox with JWPlayer shows video in black and white

    Just upgraded to FF 23 Win8 running. Videos using JWPlayer now reproduce in black and white with a vertical bar on the RIGHT side of the green screen.

    YouTube and other videos work fine.

    It is not a problem with the video source that I can upload them and they display properly. It runs only in a page of FF.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    You can check for problems with the latest version of the Flash plugin and try these:

    • disable an eventual extension of the browser for Firefox Plugin RealPlayer Record and if installed RealPlayer update
    • Disable protected mode in the plugin Flash (Flash 11.3 + on Windows Vista and later versions)
    • turn off hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

    Hi Ulap,

    A. from when what happens?

    B. you are able to print the other black and white file formats?

    First of all, check if you are able to print black and white photo viewer.

    Then, run an auditor of system files (sfc scan) on your computer in order to replace the files corrupted on your computer.

    1. click on the Start button

    2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

    3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

    4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

    5 If you have the enabled User Account Control (UAC) you will be asked to consent to the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

    7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

    8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

    9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

    10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

    11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window reboot the computer and check if the problem persists.

  • Lightroom black and white to color

    When I download my pictures from my camera to lightroom 2.2 it takes pictures that I shot in black and white and converts them into color t-anyone knows if there is a setting or a way to avoid this?

    Hi Andrew

    I'm assuming that you are shooting in RAW. If you take photos in JPG format, you will get the black and white photos. The reason why you see a black and white in reading on the camera must be because the camera shows a preview in black and white.

    Fortunately for you, RAW capture red, green and blue and combines them into a picture, your photo. If the RAW converter in lightroom necessarily combines the components, which makes a color image.

    It's a good thing. RAW images capture as much as possible, if you have a lot of information and details for a shot as possible.

    Black and white conversion in lightroom allows you to play with colours by photos. If she has imported black and white you would have lost so much information.

    What if you came home for a shoot and directed a shot could have been great in color, or you rushed to film a sunset forgetting that the setting was on black and white...

    To make the lightroom import photos in black and white, you will have to do a develop preset.

    more simple way, forgive me if I'm teaching to suck you eggs.

    1. open lightroom

    2 goto development

    3. click on shades of gray in base salary

    4. right click on the thumbnail on the bottom which is now black and white go gold the PRESETs on the left of the screen by opening the Panel if ifs not here and click on the +.

    5. enter a name of the preset - import IE black and white

    6. Select Auto Grayscale Mix

    7. click on create

    1 preselection made

    To import

    1. click on library

    2. click on file and import - from the disk, the system...

    3. Select the files you want to import as a black and white, check them while they are selected

    go to the development parameters

    has chosen the basic settings and

    According to the information to apply develop settings and select from the drop-down list select import in black and white

    and then import it.

    The pictures you have selected then will be black and white.

    It will work - you may need to remember which photos were black and white as thumbnails in the import dialoge may not be black and white.

    I'm not black and white I want to play with the color that I made in black and white.

    Mode shooting black and white means that you can NEVER have a color version of the photo, so you may lose is a beautiful photo of your bet.

    As you use Lightroom, you're messing around with the images, so shoot color, and then click Grayscale and play them with the mixture of shades of gray, you'll have a lot more fun.

    But who is mentioned above process will bring your black and white photos.

    Hope that helps you

    (I still shoot color and convert every time - even if jpeg)

  • How can I make my officejet 6500 a print in black and white only?

    I am trying to print documents, not photos, in black and white.  The computer is a Macbook Air.  I'm looking for the manual, and I don't see how to set up printing black and white document WITHOUT PRINTING FAST current of AIR.

    Thanks a lot for helping me with this.

    I prefer, if possible, to make the default for printing black and white documents (which are not fast drafts). ***

    Hi @presentmomentum,

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    Here's how to adjust the color temperature:

    When you go to print a document, click on "Show details" (next, where it says PDF). Then click on 'TextEdit' and click on 'Type/quality paper.' From there, you can select the grayscale, black and white or color and toggle various levels of quality (Normal, Best project). If you use the grayscale function, you can choose just to use the black cartridge only.

    Let me know if it helps. If I helped you to solve the problem and that you liked this post, feel free to give me virtual accessories by clicking on the "Thumbs Up" icon below by clicking on "Accept as Solution" (this will help others find the solution).

  • Vista for admin is displayed in black and white, safe mode he color__How can I solve this?

    It's for my computer vista laptop professional 32-bit, I run, I have a NVIDIA Geforce 9600 M GT video card, which displays its colors very well in safe mode which I am right now.

    I tried to update the driver, and it shows that I have the latest updated driver for my card, which I doubt has problems because safe mode clearly shows the colors. I tried in the admin change all aspects of the display to check if, somehow, it shows color without result.

    I have not change anything until the problem happens, the last action I did before putting it in black and white, was admin log, and put the computer in mode "Eve". I tried to access low and high graphic games after the problem, and the low graphic games can be played in black and white, while the high graphic games are not. They display an error on x-ray engine which I assume is due to the lack of color on the screen.

    I also tried a system restore, but it failed because all the 3 times, he showed that nothing has changed for the restoration of the system has failed.

    I hope this is enough information to troubleshoot. (I restarted and tried to update and even downloaded program Mr. Fix It Microsoft and unsuccessfully yet.)

    PLS, help

    It wasn't her, but I managed to solve the problem but another way. Believe it or not, under the digital vibrance I just had it higher than before, but the strange thing is that I never played with this setting under my nvidia Control Panel. Another is that whenever I have a graphic problem with my theme (which is three times since I increased the digital vibrance), it turns black and white display before they change.

    I think that maybe it won't be a temporary solution, because I can not find the reason for the error of digital vibrance begin wth or as to why the screen goes black and white when my theme does not appear himself.

    But thanks to try it regardless, but this isn't the high contrast setting. Become text and th white black screen, rather mycomputer transformed into black and white way somewhat.
