The computer video card can't read the themes

My computer has a bad sector and Vista had to be put back. I used to have my picture as my screensaver and your display fadin in and out, pan and zoom, style, album etc. Now, they just flip with no transition. I get a meaasge reading:"this video card in the computer can not play themes." Why what happened? Any thoughts as to get things back to normal? The place I got it don't know why it happened.

Hi Lucy2099,

This happens usually when your Windows experience index is set to 3 or below. Go to control panel, click on the system icon and check what Windows experience Index side. If it says 3 or below clcik update Windows Experience Index link. "Usually", this solves the problem.

You can also check that you have the latest drivers for your graphics card.

    Portege R 500 does not read SDHC cards in the SD slot. Normal SD cards can be read without problem. Manual states that you can read SDHC cards. in various forums, that it is specified, that SDHC cards up to 16 GB of work without problem.

  • What video card can be added to the s330f to support two monitors?

    I want to add a second monitor to my HP Pavilion s330f.  I think I'll have to add a video card that supports two monitors.  Since this is a slimline box, size is a matter in addition to compatibility.  What cards can be used?

    I was unable to locate a "s330f" on HP support site. Please provide the number of name and/or product of full model specific aid. Assuming you have a HP Pavilion Slimline s3300f desktop PC, the power plant is only rated at 160 watts and there is no PCIe cards x 16 graphics in your computer's power market will be based.

    Depending on what you plan on using two monitors, because there may be an alternative to a new power supply and graphics card.

    (1) Day trading, word documents, spreadsheets and other... buy an adapter USB-to-video as the EVGA UV plus + UV19 or UV39.

    (2) game... not recommended

    (3) source a bigger power supply and the new graphics card for HP

    (4) source of a greater power of athenapower.com and a graphics card 'low - profile' from another source.

  • Change the settings for the virtual computer video card

    After upgrade of several virtual machines to the latest version of material, some of our virtual machines experienced a problem where the 3D has been activated and automatic detection has been updated with the manual. Some side effects have been experienced. I am now seeking to create a workflow to disable 3D and set to automatic detection for our servers. I found the properties "enable3DSupport" and "useAutoDetect" under VirtualDeviceConfigSpec.VirtualDevice.VirtualMachineVideoCard.

    I had planned this script in action and create a workflow to move a virtual machine as the user selects.

    I fired up Onyx and pulled the following information:

    // ------- ReconfigVM_Task -------
     
    var spec = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
    spec.changeVersion = "2013-02-21T16:34:32.130873Z";
    spec.deviceChange = System.getModule("com.vmware.onyx").array(VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpec, 1);
    spec.deviceChange[0] = new VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpec();
    spec.deviceChange[0].operation = VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation.edit;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device = new VcVirtualMachineVideoCard();
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.key = 500;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.deviceInfo = new VcDescription();
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.deviceInfo.label = "Video card ";
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.deviceInfo.summary = "Video card";
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.controllerKey = 100;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.unitNumber = 0;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.videoRamSizeInKB = 8192;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.numDisplays = 1;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.useAutoDetect = true;
    spec.deviceChange[0].device.enable3DSupport = false;
     
    managedObject.reconfigVM_Task(spec);  // VirtualMachine
    
    
    

    I know that most of that is not necessary, but I have tried two different ways and received the following error:

    Cannot convert com.vmware.vim.vi4.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec@1 in [com.vmware.vim.vi4.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec] (name of the dynamic Script Module: changeVideoCard3DEnable #9)

    Can someone provide some guidance? It seems that most actions and workflows in vCO seek information in the environment rather than change things.

    Thank you

    Morning,

    untested but try this way:

    spec var = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
    
    
    var myDeviceChange = new Array();
    
    
    var myVirtualMachineVideoCard = new VcVirtualMachineVideoCard();
    
    
    Context of var = new VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpec();
    
    
    
    
    myVirtualMachineVideoCard.useAutoDetect = true;
    
    
    myVirtualMachineVideoCard.enable3DSupport = false;
    
    
    
    
    configSpec.operation = VcVirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation.edit;
    
    
    configSpec.device = myVirtualMachineVideoCard;
    
    
    
    
    myDeviceChange.push (configSpec);
    
    
    spec.deviceChange = myDeviceChange;
    
    
    
    
    vm.reconfigVM_Task (spec);

    But it's untetested.

  • Another video card can be installed on a model P2 1120 PC? Also, how many open bays are there?

    I have HP Pavillion Model P2 1120 PC running on Windows 7 Home Premium and I would like to install a video card as quickly. This model will support this? Also, are there front open berries on this model?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion p2-1120. As you can see on the photo of the motherboard down and NO expansion slot;

    In addition, there is only a Bay 5.25 inch ODD (CD/DVD/Bluray) and a 3.5 inch HDD (hard drive) Bay in this system. This means that there NO bays open... internal, external or otherwise.

  • HP Pavilion Notebook - 17-f208: dedicated video card can not seen in BIOS

    Good day Sir/Mam...i recently bought a HP Pavilion Notebook - 17-f208nx and I wonder if the dedicated video card is can be seen in the BIOS?... cause when I go into the BIOS I don't see the card... thanks video dedicated to help.

    Hi @nextor ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. It's a great site for information and questions. I looked at your question about your Notebook of 17-f208nx HP Pavilion Notebook and concerns regarding the graphics not to be seen in the BIOS. That it is up to your motherboard, it is usually on the Advanced tab. If it is not listed in the BIOS means that you will not be able to change the options.

    Thank you.

  • . All of my Windows mail folders were empty and all applications on the toolbar are dark, when I turned on the computer. How can I get back them?

    My husband and I share the same email address and use the same computer.  All e-mails and applications on the toolbar 'his side' of the computer are very good, but me disappeared including send/receive.   I got emails that I downloaded, but do not read.  There an idea of how to recover emails and applications?

    It is not at all what you mean by the 'toolbar '.   You use Windows Mail in Vista?  If so, you can search the *.eml try to locate emails (see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for background), but you will need to provide more information, because it is not clear if you do not see the files or toolbars in WinMail (try to view |) Page layout) or if your all start menu disappeared.  You can also try a system restore, but it seems that you should also check for viruses and malware, according to your description.

  • Laptop computer video card

    In 2011, I bought a Hp Pavilion dv6 and I choose not to get the graphics card and sticking with the graphics card intel. I want now to get an upgrade and get a graphics card. I was told that graphics cards for laptop are so different for desktop computers. So my question is if I can put a new graphics card in my laptop? It would be difficult to put in? And if I can what card should I get?

    Hello

    Basically, you can, with a cost, and I think that this cost can be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:

    • New price of the card, and WHERE you can buy it because the laptop cards are not the same office maps. You can't buy any normal store,
    • Need new card system.
    • Need new system of cooling because in general more powerful card pumps out more heat (you want more powerful card don't you?).
    • May need new power supply because your current diet is not suitbale for the card. (I ordered a machine with the Nvidia card and I need to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal charger 65W. They rejected just my order.)
    • Cost of the work.
    • Packages a lot, a lot of aspirin.

    I hope this helps.
