  • After a few minutes, the screen goes black on Windows Vista

    original title: Auto Adjust

    Hello.

    Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.

    I tried restoring the system that works and that gets our screen back to normal but every day that this Auto setting is coming and we can't seem to stop it.

    Any help would be appreciated... Thank you

    Try this:

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

    Then:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    See you soon.

  • Device not start after rooting and reinstalling the original software

    Hello and welcome to you all from Cape Town, South Africa.

    Awhile back, I decided it would be a good idea at the root of my Xperia Z, not a big deal really, even if I had to ask a mate of mine to help when I managed to bootloop device, the beautiful will... not!

    Well good to cut a loooong story... short ish! My Z has been reset to the factory / carrier standard and after about an hour, I decided to play again and try my hand at "flashing" one of the other carriers due to having firmware changed service providers! If by chance, you were wondering how that happened, here, I'm stuck with a device that does not load properly and juuuust on boots, only for a fraction of second program start screen for THE SONY XPERIA Z... then... tickets... gone, dead, all just tired!

    I then rolled along for my poor unsuspecting companion, who just shook his head when I handed him the said device. The poor boy had for a week and has just managed to restore the software, even if he is convinced that it is a hardware problem, as in the battery!

    Please one, if not all of you, kind people put me on my my Sony and give me either a glimpse of hope, or simply give it to me right and tell me what might be wrong with the unit and weather or not, it can be resolved, I will impose a ban on all fiddle devices... capable.

    Best regards

    Hello world

    I'm a newbie here & laptop but my companion got a satellite Pro P100 (Toshiba Satellite Pro P100-124 PSPA4E-001001EN) & it is my asked for help. Here's the problem:

    Laptop starts to go through the procedure of starting with lights coming and cd player starts to work the rotation of fans, but nothing shows up on the screen

    I said it could be the graphics card but could do with a starting point, I'm PC savvy but on the desktop, it's my first attempt at a portable computer so please be nice...

    Hello

    Have you tried this thing?

    ->, remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter from the portable computer
    -> waiting for ~ 30 min 1 h
    -> connect the two parts again and try to turn on the device

    If this will not help, then it would mean that a hardware problem serious causes this problem and you will need to contact a Toshiba ASP technician to know exactly what s wrogn.

    Good luck

  • Unlock windows box disappears after windows automatically locks the screen

    Hello

    This happened to someone? What in the world could be the cause?

    Thanks for the comments.

    Hi Jim_B_NJ,

    1. you have value to request password on Resume on the computer?

    I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.
