Windows 7 Graphics problem: graphics would become all deformed and weird looking

original title: graphic problem Windows 7

Hi, I recently got a new laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed on it.  Sorry if this problem has already been asked before, but I couldn't find someone else with the same problem I have.

Sometimes, the graphics would become all deformed and weird looking.  Look at the screenshot I took:

And it occurs for each program, not only on the desktop.  I could usually get rid of the lines by reducing the window and maximizing it again.  But it's so boring.

My graphics card is a Mobile Intel (r) 4 Series Express Chipset Family.  I updated the driver from last night, but the same thing happens again.  So I don't know what else could be the problem.

Thanks in advance!

Check if your video card has its own program/parameters adjustment control panel and use it to adjust your settings more towards the side of the 'quality' rather than the side 'Performance' and see if that smooth your edges for you.  Also, you said that your system is new.  You can look into having served through your warranty.  You also need to make sure that it is not getting too hot.  Laptops produce a lot of heat and if it doesn't get good ventalation / or enough, then he can begin to display this type of behavior.  I had to go out and get a 'cooling block' for mine to keep it cool.  I hadn't started to have problems because of the heat, but I decided on my own that he was too hot.   Hope this bit of info helps.

  • Satellite L300-PSLB8E - screen becomes all white and the laptop freezes

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 PSLB8E. I initially bought with Windows Vista already installed on it. After a few years, I changed the operating system Windows 7 Ultimate. I installed the display and all the other necessary drivers (that is, sound, network, etc.).

    After I installed Windows 7, when I use the laptop for a while, the screen becomes all white and the laptop hangs. This happens spontaneously. Sometimes, in less than 10 minutes and other times that it can work perfectly for hours. I checked for loose batteries and other components, but everything seems fine.

    Physical damage only that there is a tiny crack on the screen in the bottom right of the screen. The operating system is not good? If I put windows Vista back as it was?

    Please advise and help understand me what the problem is with the laptop.

    Until we start discussion can you tell me what you do when this happen?
    Hard stop and restart?
    Is everything OK again when you do?

    It is not easy to say what exactly is the problem, but I put t think there is problem with OS and preinstalled display driver. A long time ago I installed Win7 Home Premium on friends L300 and it works perfectly.

    What you can try is to use the external monitor for a while and see if everything works well. If so, there is no problem with the operating system, drivers or graphics card. It may be that the display problem.

    Hello

    When does this beep?

    It probably comes from the speaker of your motherboard.

    Listen to the PC (put close your ear) while producing the sound and then compare it with putting your ear near a speaker.

  • CFS3 on windows 7 Graphics problem

    I'm sure that my pc should be able to play. It can handle modern warfare 2 very well. It has a nvidea geforce 7600gs.

    Intell pentium 4 3.0 Ghz + 1256 mb of ram. When I run it, it starts all the icons to shuder pannals affter 3 seconds and goes black every 2 seconds. I put it to run in Windows xp sp2 and admin in the compatibility properties. would really like to have an answer.

    Hi Contranova,

    This could happen if one of the substantive programmes is in conflict with the proper functioning of the game. To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    The steps to perform a clean boot are given below:

    1 log on to the computer using an account with administrator rights

    2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue

    3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)

    4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all

    Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use with existing restore points system restore utility

    Once you start office check if the problem persists, follow the steps in the article and find out which program is causing the problem.

    For more information about the clean boot, follow the below given link:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    2. on the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    3. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart

    You can also try to reduce the resolution of the screen and check if that helps. To change the screen resolution

    1. click on the Start button

    2. go in Control Panel

    3. under appearance and personalization, click on adjust the screen resolution

    4 adjust and check if that helps.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • 2 revolutionary war does not not on Windows 7 (graphic corruption)

    I just installed the game 2 war of independence (which is a game of 2001) on Windows 7. He used to work on XP, and it does not work until the main menu of windows 7. However, at the time of entry in the physical game (i.e. using the graphics engine of the game), much graphical corruption occurs and the game hangs and I have to use the Task Manager to close. He once gave me the BSOD also. All my other games (the most recent including red faction guerrilla, crysis, farcry 2) everything works perfectly. I suspect it could be cos its an old game, so it could be the graphics driver that I need to roll back or even windows 7. I need to know if anyone has this problem and if they have found a solution for it.

    I have a Core i7 with a Palit Geforce GTX 275 and 2 GB of RAM Corsair DDR 3. I read a lot of cases where people are playing this game on Windows 7 without any problem. Please let know us if you want more details to help me with this problem I really love this game, but I also like Windows 7.

    Dexter83,
    If you have updated your driver graphic and tried the game in compatibility mode so it's not much else you can do.  Game developers (if he's still around) will have to create a hotfix or an update for the game.  You can check the forum I-war2 on the Atari website.  They may have more specific information about the do work with WIndows 7.

    Yes this is all related to driver problems with the fall of ATI 12.10 and impacts Psalm in opting for the basic mode, color management is managed on the CPU, and you may see an impact on performance with OpenGL rendering (3D on-screen interaction, I think requires the Normal parameter or advanced).

    My Disk Defragmenter has worked all night and is still in course, would there be a problem?

    Hello

    The Vista defrag works quietly in the background without intervention on your part

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/942092

    In Windows Vista, there are a lot of improvements in the defrag engine and handling of fragmentation. By default, Windows Vista uses Task Scheduler to automatically keep the defragmented hard drive. This Automatic defragmentation does not affect the performance of the Windows Vista operating system...

    If you want to use a much better defragmentation program which is free and where you can see the results, I suggest this one:

    OK, finally got this problem. Did a google search and finally found someone who has exactly the same problem.

    I had to disable all security software, and set the control to the lowest setting (off) UAC Windows user account. Then, uninstall and reinstall the HP software.

    Not sure why this started all of a sudden, only thing that's happened to rescently was multiple 14 or so Windows 7 updates on close April 14, 2015.

    Well well after 5 days that I fixed it myself, same technical 1 Microsoft Support level could not repair after a 1 hour on the phone and connect remotely.

  • Problems - leaving behind (almost all) the uninstall files. [Windows 7 64-Bit]

    Hi all

    I had some real problems with my programs Adobe CC do not update - despite the CC itself program update I received countless errors to U44M1P7. Ultimately I decided that the best practice would be to completely remove everything and start again - so I started on that!

    As a result of what I believe, this is the correct procedure, the first step, I took (after backing up everything that I need of course) had to go to "Programs and features" in the Panel (I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit) and go through each Adobe application and uninstall it. So I went through, 1 by 1, uninstall, making sure to select "delete preferences" anywhere where I could. The installers would do their thing and applications disappeared from my program list. I'm left with now is consistent with "Adobe Flash Player 19 Active X", and "Adobe Flash Player Plugin 13" (I don't think they are part of the creative cloud).

    In any case, after you have uninstalled all, I rebooted my system, ready to run the Adobe CC cleaner. On reboot I have communicated that uninstalling programs have made what seems to be almost nothing - almost all records for nominations are still on my hard drive, have shortcuts in the Start Menu and take a lot of hard disk space - infact I can still run all the applications that I have tried! Only the main actors who seems to actually have disappeared are Acrobat Pro and creative cloud application itself.

    I ran CC cleaner-who reports that she did good work, but of course, everything is still there - the only thing that is actually went is the entries for the applications in the list of "programs and features" in Control Panel - is not as if I can try to restart the uninstall programs.

    Anyone got tips on what to do next? I had a browse other subjects and you have failed to find anything, my apologies if I missed something on this, but I'm more frustrated. I really want to avoid doing a reformat on this system as well - there a lot of other software running and a reformat will just be a nightmare for me at the moment.

    Thanks in advance!

    Replying to my own son. Finally managed to get somewhere with Adobe LiveChat and they have recommended that what I suspected, remove all manually.

    In case anyone else has this problem;

    1 al 'hit explore' organize > folder and ' Options search, then on the 'View' tab uncheck 'Use sharing Wizard' from the bottom (not sure what that's all) and then check "Show hidden files and folders", if it isn't already.

    2 remove the following folders;

    a. program Files > Adobe

    b. program Files (x 86) > Adobe

    c. ProgramData > Adobe

    d. users > [Username] > AppData > Local > Adobe

    e. users > [Username] > AppData > LocalLow > Adobe

    f. users > [Username] > AppData > Roaming > Adobe

    3. run the Adobe cleaner again. Clear all entries of creative cloud & CS6.

    4. restart the system and reinstall creative cloud and Applications.

    I started the resettlement process and everything seems OK so far! Fingers crossed things will be fine from here.

  • the Windows 8 (graphic layout) network card is missing, was on WIndows 7

    Hello

    I think I already know the answer to this & it has been asked before by others with no positive response but thought I would just try again.

    Is there somewhere hidden the ability to visualize the layout of type table of the network you use to make just under windows 7
    In Windows 7, you could see under center network & sharing of information of the network, and then click on "View network adapters" or similar
    and he gave an overview of your devices, routers, etc.
    Windows 8 happened, even basic information seems devoid, now nothing private, Public, work etc (I guess it's somehere but don't have no need, so don't go looking) but seems just poor.
    In any case, this feature was very helpful, especially as I often put my network to the top, change routers, equipment etc. and when you add a new router if it is not set to auto DHCP (which I always turn off because they are always an access point) you can not see what the IP of the router is usually on a range of ip addresses different and often not standard. Sounds like a rarely used feature, but I often need this, especially the factory resets etc.
    Why on earth would remove this feature!
    I'm so sick of 'new improved' software/hardware taking features which were so useful and adding things that are unnecessary. You thought you could do in a few minutes & always things could suddenly take a lot longer, that's progress for you
