Windows Desktop, open, IE8 reverse flash colors at the opening of new window or program

Just got a new Dell OptiPlex 780 desktop running Windows7 two days ago. Everything works fine except for this really boring 'flash' each time I open a new program, open new windows (but not all the time that I opened a window) and whenever I go to a new link on IE8. The entire screen and becoming black, blue with white color momentarily, Exchange Office becoming green, green Orange, etc.

It is very dsitracting and boring, the entire screen flashes literally these vivid, boring colors for about a second.

Any suggestions?

Hello

If that happened, right out of the box, I would recommend Dell to search for known problems. It's probably a chart/device driver problem.

Whatever the cause, this should not be happening on a new computer.

  • When I open a program, I see flashing colors around the window. This does not work in safe mode.

    Hi, I have Windows 7 running on a new 4330 s HP's ProBook. I find when I open a window envelope program flashes of clear color. When the computer has started in safe mode the flashing stops. When we run the Task Manager and look under the processes tab, I see that the file named ReStart.exe is disappear and reappear when I try and stop the process, I get a message window titled terminate treatment impossible and the message in the window's "the operation could not be performed. Access is denied. Can anyone help that when the window is flashing the program will not respond to mouse clicks and keyboard entry. I ran virus with Trend Microsystems and AVG free version checks, but I still have this problem.

  • reversed spot colors on the screen

    When I export PDFs from indesign cs4 on a windows vista machine spot colors in the pdf file (text alive and vector files in any format) seem to be reversed on the screen.

    I export with the 'high quality' preset and the preset "quality of the press." If I export with other presets colors appear on the screen perfectly. However, other presets are standards that do not spot export.

    print .ps and aid to distill sometimes takes care of the issue, but are a pain in the work around end to end.

    If it was just me I could care less, because I know that the files will display properly. Customers see this and want to know why 872 Golden looks blue.

    If I feel, colors appear very well. If I to ' advanced > print > overview of the output "and select only the spot colors in the file, while I'm in the output preview mode, the colors are fine. If I highlight and select text/vectors with the arrow tool the colors invert to the appropriate color.

    It's as if everything is highlighted with the default pointer tool. This happens more with pms solid coated reflex blue, pms 072 solid coating and various metallic pantone. I can provide examples if necessary. No guarantee that it will appear on your screen as it looks good. I use default color profiles. It is a really aggravating question.

    example:

    TVk https://docs.Google.com/leaf?ID=0B86QzBSvaK5wODBlYjQ2ZWUtYzEzOC00ZjQ1LTk3NDktNzAxMjRjMGE2N & hl = en

    I think the default setting for overview of overprinting in Acrobat must be turned on for PDF / X, so export to one of the PDF / X presets could do the trick.

  • I can't open a new tab to create a new window, I have to go to my desktop and click on the firefox icon to open more than 1 window, how do I fix?

    To be able to open say my gmail and facebook, I have to go to my office and Open firefox 2 times in order to run the two elements. Firefox won't let me open up a new tab, but if I click on a link in a window, I then opened a new tab will open. Its very strange, any advice?

    Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

    Other posters have a difficult time distinguishing tabs and Windows, it seems. With a lot of posters here the two terms are used incorrectly and indifferently, as is the desktop and the window of Firefox, but my understanding is that a lot of this "bad language" is taught in schools.

    This is the only thing that I could find quickly for you:

    Comments on the first link (read carefully). May not work, unless this should be 'current tab's addressare'and it seems he can "take back" the new tabs in the window/new selections (i.e., no new windows/tab blank):

  • ion will open a new window does not work

    Firefox 3.6.3, Windows Vista 64-bit. When I 'open in a new window', it is not the case, but apparently another instance of Firefox opens in the background. After closing Firefox, if I open the ask Manager, I see another instance running I have to kill before I can restart Firefox. I also noticed that my help to download the video no longer appears in the navigation bar, or on the Tools menu, even if he says he did when I look at the options Add on. Not sure if this is related. I completely deleted Firefox and installed Firefox 3.6.3 and the problem remains.

  • How to change the background color of the window?

    I would like to change the background color for all applications to pale gray,

    such as Notepad and IE.

    Anyone have any suggestions on how to do it?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Right-click on a zone empty of your desktop and choose personalize. When customization of the control panel applet opens, choose the color of the window (on the axis, below the pane). When the pane of the window color and appearance opens, click Advanced appearance settings (lower left corner of the pane).

    Now... with the Windows color and appearance of dialog box open, click on the white space of the Window Active (do not click the text in the window) or choose the command window of the point: in the drop-down list. Choose a color for 1 color:, e.g. Gray. Click apply at the bottom right and wait Windows 7 resets the graphic properties.

    If you now open Notepad, you'll have a gray window active. My IE follows suit, but only on a white page. Web designers in general choose the background image or color they want to view, and you will have to go into the options of the browser to replace those.
