  • Adobe Flash crashed so I have disabled hardware acceleration

    I guess many people is aware of this problem.
    When you leave a video full screen, flash player crashed. Then I saw the solution in this site. He tells me to disable hardware acceleration. If it worked, I'm supposed to update my graphics drivers, but it is already up to date. I don't want to keep my hardware acceleration disabled but when I allow it I still have a few problems. Help me!
    Thank you

    Disabling hardware acceleration in the settings of the Flash is the solution given in article videos Flash will not play in full screen . If it works, the article suggests to update your graphics driver. If you can't do that, it's OK to leave disabled hardware acceleration. This Adobe help page has more information:

    If I have some display problems with Flash Player, what should I do?

    If you have problems to view with Flash Player, such as poor quality, image or slow display times deselect Enable hardware acceleration in the display panel. This should eliminate the problems of compatibility of hardware or driver with Flash Player. Flash Player then uses the software to scale and display content.

    does anyone know why this is and if there is anyway to change the settings of the selectable option.

    If not is there another method of modification of hardware acceleration

    concerning

    If you receive messages on the need to increase "hardware acceleration", it's because you try to run a program/game that requires performance characteristics more that your machine has.

    You will find the graphics driver that is available only on the computer manufacturer site. With that installed, if the messages yet, your computer is not running the program/game and nothing you can do will change...

    You can disable it through your browser settings.

    Firefox - tools > Options > general tab > uncheck 'Use HWA when available'

    IE - tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab > Check "Software use made instead of GPU rendering.

    Chrome - go to the address bar, and then type chrome://flags > press enter and it will take you to a page like this. Scroll down the page until you find "compositing GPU on all pages. Select the option "default" and change it to "Disabled":

  • Application cannot recognize the hardware acceleration, but it certainly is turned

    Hello

    I'm a newbie on this forum, but I have looked around before posting my problem and could not find any solution. Maybe there is someone who can give me a hint.

    Here's my problem: I have two users on my desktop pc Windows 7, two users play Farmville 2. Until the update of last week everything worked well. But now Farmville displays a message saying that hardware acceleration is turned off and the mode full screen option is not available. This applies to user 1 on firefox and chrome and user 2 on chrome only. In other words: User 2 can play in full screen mode with firefox but not with chrome.

    I checked everything that mentioned on the Flash Player help page games, video or audio does not work. Windows. (The Flash Player Information bos said that my OS is Windows 7 (32 bit), although I certainly have a 64 bit OS). I removed the Flash player and re-installed and activated the hardware acceleration, which is needed to play Farmville 2 in full screen mode.

    Thanks for any help

    Werner

    We actually install a Player Flash 32 and 64 bits in parallel on your machine, but one that is used depends on the number of bits in the browser host process.  Firefox is a 32-bit browser, so you're going to get Flash Player 32-bit.  I don't really know why the Flash Player entry in Control Panel includes (32-bit) in the name.  It was probably logical at the time, but that's another question entirely.  Google Chrome is a different beast and the latest versions of Chrome on Windows are 64-bit, and they include the Flash Player 64 - bit corresponding PPAPI.

    In any case, I think here is if you have enabled hardware acceleration, but if hardware acceleration is not available, we probably have to index your GPU drivers because they are unstable.  The fact that happens in Chrome and Firefox in favor of the theory.  Update to the latest graphics drivers available, generally will do.

    I * am * a little perplexed about why he works for a firefox user and not the other.  Firefox * fact * have a way of browser globally disable hardware acceleration.  I wonder if the affected user has this option enabled.  It's under Advanced > General > use hardware acceleration when available.  I'd be curious to know if it happens again with a fresh Firefox profile: use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox | Firefox help

  • Hardware acceleration of unknown status

    Hi all

    I have the strange situation:

    I am using vCenter server + virtual environment LabManager. Recently, all the infrastructure has been upgraded to version 4.1.

    So far as I understand my ESX hosts could now use command VAAI to SAN storage. I did not disable VAAI support:

    # vmware - v
    VMware ESX 4.1.0 build-348481

    # esxcfg - advcfg - g/DataMover/HardwareAcceleratedMove
    Value of HardwareAcceleratedMove is 1
    # esxcfg - advcfg - g/DataMover/HardwareAcceleratedInit
    Value of HardwareAcceleratedInit is 1
    # esxcfg - advcfg - g/VMFS3/HardwareAcceleratedLocking
    Value of HardwareAcceleratedLocking is 1

    But the status of "Hardware Acceleration" in the storage of the ESX configuration is still not changed:

    HW_Acceleration.jpg

    I tried to copy the vmdk/place via interface ESX VMs files cloned... as it was written in the FAQ of vmware , but nothing happens.

    Someone at - it ideas? Just trying to understand why I have this kind of behavior.

    Hello.

    Note: This discussion has moved from the community of VMware ESX 4 to VMware vSphere storage community.

    Weird - the operations you have performed should have updated status.  This came recently and the solution was a restart of the host.

    Good luck!

  • Firefox used to work fine until last week, now hangs at startup - have reinstalled, tried to uncheck hardware acceleration - not fixed.

    Until the week last Firefox coasted reasonably little pop-up (windows 10), now it crashes immediately. I reinstalled, ticked hardware acceleration (it starts in safe mode), but is not fixed. Any ideas?

    Thank you, looking at these reports, it seems that this may be caused by external software on the computer. go to control panel of your system and remove any software marked 'Freecorder"or similar, or by the Publisher"Applian Technologies"or any other toolbars.

  • Problem with fonts. If enable hardware acceleration "BOLD" fonts look weird, but if I turn it off, "BOLD" fonts seem good, but normal fonts look weird

    Title.

    With hardware acceleration: http://imgur.com/jHRk6Yl words 'empty' look and really weird air instead of being "BOLD". But if I disable it, normal fonts look "weird" in some Web sites (not all) and are difficult to read.
    Any solution?

    Thank you!

    Hmm, another user Windows 10 reported this after installing some Helvetica fonts.

    In your screenshot, the text 'blue indicated' is the following style rule:

    font-family: "helvetica neue",arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
    

    So I guess you have Helvetica Neue installed locally, which seems to have strange problems in Firefox.

    If you don't want to remove this font on your system, you can use custom style rules for Firefox overrides Arial, which is what I see on Windows 7 on this page. I saw the first time that documented in this article (from 2010!):

  • Hardware acceleration of flash player does not work on windows 10

    I installed windows 10 yesterday, everything works fine except the hardware acceleration in flash. I don't see that a green video if I activate hardware acceleration. Work videos flash if I disable hardware acceleration, but I don't think it's a good solution because the CPU usage goes way up. I have an AMD ATI Radeon HD 4890 and I use the drivers supplied with windows 10 because amd has not released any Windows 10 drivers for my card. Strange thing is that hardware acceleration works fine in chrome, so I think this isn't a driver problem, is there some way I can fix this in firefox?

    I solved the problem by installing the drivers amd since the INF, now working on hardware acceleration!

    Edit: It seems that the Green video problem is solved with this solution because the CPU usage is always the same with hardware acceleration disabled

  • Turn off hardware acceleration to resolve failures and defects of graphics.

    A few weeks ago Thunderbird updated itself, and the life of my email went to hell. The continuous black screen. Often he was missing all the icons on e-mail records. I had often to minimize and reopen Thunderbird to see anything. I kill then restarting it maybe 8 times a day when he hooked completely. He crashed himself and sent error reports, perhaps 20 times a day. Absolutely horrible.

    Finally, I found this article, which explains how to disable hardware acceleration:

    http://www.askvg.com/how-to-disable-hardware-acceleration-GPU-rendering-in-Mozilla-Firefox-4-0-to-fix-font-problem/

    It worked. Apparently in one of the recent updates, enabled Thunderbird when hardware acceleration for my system, he had to be turned off. (I vaguely remember turning it off before.)

    In addition, there are a simple switch off in the Options.

    "Tools" > "Options" > "Advanced" > "Général" tab
    or
    'Icon menu' > 'Options' > 'Options' > "Advanced" > "Général" tab

    To turn off:
    Uncheck the "use hardware acceleration when available.
    Click on 'OK '.

  • Hardware acceleration can be improved in the non support Windows XP?

    I was able to diagnose my problems with the new windows that open instead of tabs and expectant keyboard following the indications of support: start in safe mode, removing the hardware acceleration, reboot normally and... .no problem! I would like to know if it is possible to update the graphics drivers in Windows XP - pro before going through the whole process (I'm not a tech savvy type). My internet loading is already slow as it is, rural DSL speeds, but I rather just be patient rather than to tackle the constant keyboard problems that have been driving me crazy. Please let know us if it is worth trying to upgrade or not.

    Personal opinion, away from NVIDIA / GeForce video cards. AMD / ATI based cards seem to work better with Firefox that the GeForce cards based on the research I did in April for a new PC, I was building at that time here.

    No problems with hardware acceleration or Firefox on Win7 32 bit with focus on the AMD Radeon video card from ASUS that I installed (~55.00 USD). But with Windows XP, you may never be able to use hardware acceleration, 'new' video cards do not support an EOL as WinXP operating system, and those that do may not provide enough in the long term, as Mozilla continues to twist HA in Firefox.
