    When I wake up the computer in "sleep" or "hibernate" mode, only the photo Office rises, not the icons, so I have to restart with a hard off every time.  What can I do?

    Press CTRL + ALT + DELETE and bring up the Task Manager > move in process > select Explorer > end task and it will restart and if all goes well it will bring to the top of your screen properly.

    Your computer is completely up-to-date with all the updates?

    Note I'm not a fan of setting hibernation or sleep a computer there, it can sometimes lead to problems (as you see)

    I hope this helps.

  • How to wake up the computer with the mouse

    original title: how TO WAKE up WITH COMPUTER MOUSE?

    Hello.  I have Windows 7.  Can someone tell me please how to program the mouse to wake the computer?  Thank you

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Answers.

    I guess you mean waking up from his sleep. Wake from hibernation is possible only by pressing the power button.

    If you use a USB mouse, it is possible. First, go to the configuration of the system (can be by pressing F2, or another key depending on the manufacturer). In the Advanced tab/view, you will find 'USB Wake Support' option. Activate it, save and exit the installation program. Now, you will be able to wake up your sleep system using the USB mouse.

  • No sound from the computer with connected generic speakers VISTA SP2. Symbol pregnant shows active with the Digital Audio device.

    I have vista SP2, I connected to generic stereo speakers using the green light at the back of the computer. Vista does not recognize the speakers. The speaker symbol at the bottom right shows "digital (HDMI) 2 high definition output audio device." It shows active. I had this problem before, and VISTA should pick up 'speakers' something to that effect. I have no sound until it captures "speakers". I can't get VISTA to recognize this. It keeps starting with the digital audio device. Don't know what to do, checked all the forums. It should just pick up these simple generic markets good speakers. Before SP2, I lose sound when VISTA is in standby mode. He would then turn off the stereo speaker and replace the digital output device driver... However since SP2 I can't get VISTA to recognize that I have just connected speakers and not a digital output device.

    Yes, when I uninstalled the driver, THEN shut down the computer and then restarted, he picked up the device high definition audio "speakers" good pilot is NOT the

    "digital (HDMI) 2 high definition audio output device that he used to pick up."

    I now have sound!

    I hope that it stores the right driver now as in the past, when VISTA went into sleep mode, it will disable the speakers, and you have to restart every time.

    Thanks for your help.

    You can add instructions to boumediene, the fact that you must RESTART your computer to search for new drivers, once you uninstall.

  • Cursor starts moving across the screen from left to right after the wake up the computer from standby or hibernation

    Original title: cursor goes wild

    My PC to 'wake up' sleep/hibernate, the cursor initially moving across the screen from left to right, in which window is open, destroy all the document is on the screen. I force Windows to close. How to solve this other than turning off standby/hibernation?

    Looks like the cursor of the mouse is very sensitive when the computer comes out of standby or hibernation.
    I suggest that you go in the mouse properties and lower the sensitivity and see if that helps.
    You also need to update any driver mouse if possible.

    Let us know if that helps.

    I'm sorry, but you will need a Windows 9 x / ME drive to provide during the XP installation from the XP disc is a version upgrade. There is no way around that. See if you can find a friend with an older operating system disk (not a recovery disk) to support qualification. Otherwise, you would need to buy the full version (not upgrade) of XP to install on the computer. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
