Setting the screen to get started on the applications rather than the Office of startup screen

I have a HP Pavilion 23 and run Windows 8. Recently my pc has been commissioning on the desktop instead of starting up on the screen to start applications. How can I configure my pc so that when I turn on it goes to the start of applications screen and not desktop screen?

Denver1003, welcome to the forum.

You can go into control panel / taskbar and Navigation / Navigation / start screen / uncheck the first element ' when I connect or close all applications on a screen, go to desktop instead of the start.»  When it is disabled, the computer should start to the start of Metro (Apps) screen.

  • Windows 8 to jump between Metro UI and the office at startup.

    This morning, I turn on my laptop HP ENVY-M6. Booted up fine, except he was stuck on the home screen when I connect. So I held the power button to stop it. I tried to start it again. He started, but when I proceed to log in the background color is different than the one I took. After leaving the Welcome screen, he jumped between the metro UI screen and a black screen with a bar gray at the bottom. The screen of the metro UI has also much lower tiles that I remember.

    Please help because I have to use the laptop of the future.

    Follow the troubleshooting methods listed here.
     
    Method 1
     

    Step 1: Put the computer in safe mode with networking

    With the parameters of Windows startup screen (formerly advanced startup options), you can start Windows in different advanced troubleshooting modes, so you can find and fix problems on your PC. In previous versions of Windows, you might get to the screen by pressing F8 before Windows starts. 8PCs Windows start quickly so there is not enough time to press F8.

    Follow the steps in the link below.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/Windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode

    If the computer works properly, please perform the following step.

    Step 2: Put the computer to boot and search for the issue.

    Place the computer in a clean boot state, then check if it helps. You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note: the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: during the analysis of the disk hard if bad sectors are found, the parser attempts to repair this area, all available on which data may be lost.

    Step 2: analyze and run Windows Defender in offline mode.

    Windows Defender offline can help eliminate these hard to find malicious and potentially unwanted programs using definitions that recognize the threats. Definitions are files that provide an encyclopedia of potential software threats. Follow the steps in the link here. Download the appropriate file depending on the version of bits in your computer.


    What is Windows Defender in offline mode?

    Hello jerrylumpe

    1. If you use an old mouse, try to clean it.

    2. you can have a running process in the background that keeps XP thinking that he is busy and so the screen standby does not start.
    Go to msconfig and uncheck everything you don't need, then see if the screensaver will kick in.

    Start/run and type
    Msconfig
    Ok

    It could be that something is resetting the timer. For example, it does take much vibration to move the mouse a little, and which will reset the timer to zero. Something like that would be possible? Or a pet that walks on the keyboard?

  • The opening of the window to get started off the screen

    Hello

    I recently acquired a second display for my MacBook Pro, so when I have both connected displays and open Photoshop (on each screen) putting road window opens off the screen so I can't close it (see screenshot below). How can I fix it?

    Right now I have to open Photoshop with my second offline screen, close the window get started, then plug my second monitor.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    When you switch from Windows to the other display screens in Photoshop Photoshop close to this State Photoshop remembers where you position palette, picture windows and dialogue.  If you restart Photoshop and the other views are not available. Photoshop can open windows off the screen or partially off the screen.  At least seem be the way to a working windows.  Windows operating system provides means for moving and sizing of these windows.  Mac may also have options.

  • MG6320 Scanner Stopped Working - "Set the PC to start scanning.

    I got this printer/scanner for several years, and the scanner has always worked.  Today, it doesn't.  I put the paper on the tray and then select Scan and finally select color to start the search.  It has always worked.  Today, I get the message on the screen, "set the PC to start scanning."

    I have the scanner set to send the images to my computer, and he has always demonstrated on behalf of my computer on the screen.  Today it just shows "Local USB" and cannot locate my computer.  I tried to check the status of the wireless network, and which indicates 100% with a signal strong.

    I did a search in this forum and found positions that were similar, but not identical to my problem.  In these messages, people were getting this message (set the PC to start scanning) from the beginning.  Mine has worked so far.

    Thanks in advance for all you can give me advice.

    In fact, this program was not running.  It must have been in the past, because this is how I've always been analyzed before.

    It worked!  Thanks much for the reply.  I really enjoy taking the time to answer.

  • I can't get my PNY NVIDIA GT 520 to install in my Pavilion a6123w. I set the BIOS to PCIe

    I can't get the new video card GT 520 to stay in the Device Manager list.  I upgraded to a Psalm of 650 watts I set the BIOS to PCIe and also tried PCI.  I have disabled and also tried to uninstall the integrated video graphics card GeForce 6150 nForce 430.  The GT 520 worked twice after I leave the PC closed for several hours unplugged and then boot with the monitor connected to the GT 520 VGA connection.  Both times she came back to the integrated graphics card, which has no red color.  I have the latest driver for the installed GT 520 and he demonstrated to be driven to the integrated graphics card.  When the GT520 was working he executed perfectly and I used it for several hours each time.  The first time it worked until I close the PC (Pavilion Office a6123w) down to try to get the DVI on the GT 520 connection.  The next day, I left the PC for a few minutes after using it for about 2 hours.  When I got home, I had no signal on the screen.  I went from the connection to the integrated VGA and was back in the video.  It's the second GT 520 I tried, the first was returned to Fry, because the customer (?) support PNY suggested it might be a bad card and that I should up grade of PS.  I hope someone knows the specific steps to take to make the stay of GT520 as the main graphic.  I saw a suggestion on a site that said there may be a jumper or a way to disable the video edge physically.

    Oldwrench, welcome to the forum.

    I would uninstall all (driver, video card) that you have done and start over again.  I suggest to use Revo Uninstaller to remove the driver. I always use the advanced option. This will remove all files from the registry and hard drive.  Then, restart the system.  This should put you back where you started.

    When you install the discrete video card, integrated graphics subsystem should be automatically disabled.  Makes no changes in the BIOS.  This could be the cause of some problems.  Once this is done, you can install the latest video driver from nVidia.  Restart the system and see what happens.

  • How do I set the screen window size in a guest LinuxMint17 (WS7)?

    I am always on WorkStation 7 (last revision) because I discovered that after installing the update I bought I would be able to use 7 and I need that for some of my virtual machines...

    Anyway, now I need to test some features of Web server and need a KDE LinuxMint17 machine for this.

    Installation went well and I also installed the virtual machine; Tools of dishes without problem.

    As part of the installation, I put the size of the screen for the guest to 1024 x 768 in the properties of the VM.

    Then I could install the basic software that I need the terminal of the virtual machine.

    But it turns out that this screen is too small for the webbrowser, I need to run inside the guest, so I stopped and then replaced by the properties of the vm to display 1280 x 1024.

    The strange thing is that the guest does not adjust when I start again, it always appears in the size 1024 x 768.

    So I'm looking for help set the size of the screen correctly in the comments of LinuxMint17...

    Is it possible to make the largest screen in Linux?

    I looked at the System_Settings/Display_And_Monitor inside the guest, but I do not get a way to resize it.

    Or maybe there is way to allow resizing screen in VMWare Workstation settings for the prompt instead?

    Note that I have running in a window rather than the full screen because I use it as a test machine for stuff that happens in Windows...

    I tried Googling for Linux screen size settings but came empty-handed, suggestions addressed the other issues...

    I do not use Linux Mint but on other Linux Distros, I use the xrandr from a Terminal command to set the resolution of the screen when it is not available from the GUI.

    Execution of xrandr by itself will be out the available resolutions then, for example, use: xrandr-s 1024 x 768
