Hello
 
In addition to suggestions of Rick Rogers, a simple reboot should do the trick.
 
You can also change the resolution and check.
 
Let us know the status of the issue.

  • I had sound and now I don't have - can someone please help!

    My laptop has plays music - YouTube videos and CD - perfectly. I installed iTunes and now no sound works for any device! My CD will not play (every song has a red x next to it) and I have no idea why! I uninstalled all the Apple stuff, just in case that was the problem. Rebooted the laptop but it has not made a difference. I did a convenience store but it didn't come back on the absence of sound. I use a Dell with Windows Vista basic and Intel Core 13. I do not have any other information that the laptop computer is the property of my employer. Any ideas? It worked perfectly an hour ago!

  • I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says I need to 'enable '.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us

    I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says that I have to 'activate' and when I try, I get a weird response and they all but hang up on me.  I used this drive for many years, even the screen shows a picture of my table with flowers in a vase.  What is going on?  How can I get this problem?

    Your hard drive, installed on a computer with Windows XP was preinstalled by the computer manufacturer? If this is the case, then you have a "OEM version" of Windows which is linked to the computer first it is installed on and cannot be moved or reinstalled on another computer.

    If however you have a "Commercial" of XP version that you bought in a store, then you should be able to activate by phone, be aware that move the drive from one computer to another is more often go to work and XP may have problems (device drivers and other issues). The best solution is a clean installation (after you back up your data files).

  • I just be reformatted my computer and now when I turn on my lap top it takes a user name and password

    my computer aka the computer dell laptop starts, but before it goes to the screen of welcome I have to logg microsoft XP and I don't know the user name and password

    Original title: I just reformatted my computer and now when I turn on my lap top there need a username and password and I have no idea what is it please can someone help me

    If you reformatted your computer / reinstalled Windows XP, then you entered an administrator password twice, possibly with a security issue, or you have left all these blanks.

    Try:

    -Username: admin - password:
    -Just to fill the area of the administrator user and press enter

    In addition, if you load to the Welcome screen, now try the CTRL + ALT key and tap DEL twice.  This should give you CTRL + ALT + DEL logon box.

    My 2 year old somehow gave a password on our computer and now we can get in our office.  Without having to return to the default settings, anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this problem?

    If you have a different user account with administrative privileges, Panel you can connect that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

    In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

  • I reprogram my computer and now I can't burn DVDs or play DVDs.

    original title: I reprogram my computer and now I can not bur dvd or read DVDs.

    A virus got into my computer and I had to reschedule. I can no longer watch DVDs on my pc. I use to as nero softwere. is their anyway I can restore the memory of computers? How can I fix?

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • I just downloaded windows 7 on my computer and now it says I do not have a card installed, network driver what should I do?

    I just downloaded windows 7 on my computer and now it says I do not have a card installed, network driver what should I do?

    If the computer is running XP or Vista, for example, before installing W7, it may mean that the manufacturer of the PC card or network did not have a driver for W7.

    Go to the site of the original manufacture of the PC (brand/model) support and see if they make an adapter for your specific model of W7. If they do download it, to get the right version IE 32 or 64-bit as needed. If the PC manufacturer doesn't provide one, try the website of the company that makes the actual adapter and see if they do.

    If you are unable to connect to the internet on this PC, you will need to download the driver on another PC and transfer it through via a USB stick or an SD card.

    Is there no driver W7 made for your specific PC and its adapter, then you may need to consider buying a replacement network card and use it.

  • I made a disk defrag on the guest computer and now VM won't start

    Hi, I stupidly done a disk defrag on the guest computer and now VM won't start. I have attached the log files you. Please help me.

    This can make things more difficult depending on the current state of the virtual machine.

    What you should do at this point - unless already done--is to backup/copy of files of all VM to ensure that you have a way to go back if things don't work as expected. The next step is to find out if it is possible to free up space on the D: drive, so that the virtual machine does not have to be moved (move the files could be unnecessary snapshots). If there is enough free space on the disk, use the file attached configuration (.vmx) to replace the damaged one. Ensure that VMware Workstation or at least tab of the virtual machine is closed when you do this to ensure that the replaced .vmx file is reread. If things work with the replaced files, consider deleting snapshots that you no longer need. This will not release disk space only, but can also improve the performance of the virtual machine.
