Aero switches off when extern monitor is rotated by Nvidia ControlPanel

Please see subject
Aero works fully when desktop is expanded to the 2nd monitor in normal view.
any workaround ?
Message was edited by: mhoffmann
sorry, I forgot to mention my hw: Satellite a100-02b ( geforce go 7600 )
.. and when I reboot Vista behaves a bit strange.
a few seconds all seems ok but then it sets back the external monitor to 16-bit colour and minimum Vfrequency ( 60 HZ )
and a message pops up that the "Desktop windows manager" has been closed due to a problem.
Is this perhaps because..
1) It's an old CRT, not specially known ( standard pnp-driver )?
2) the vista capability of the graphics adapter is not sufficient in this configuration ?
I heard somewhere that there is a switch in the registry, that disables the dwm.exe's test, whether the hardware is
able to support the aero-technologies. would that be a way to fix that ?

Hi,
and thanks!

No I've EXPANDED the desktop to the 2nd monitor. In normal view Aero works right then on BOTH monitors.
Only when I rotate the extern monitor this problem occurs.
I think, that this special configuration is a bit unique ( but very comfortable to work on )
and therefore not foreseen ( eeh, sorry for my english ) by the programmers of the drivers or
the dwm-team at MS.
ok, when I add the 1280*800 of the laptop screen and the 768*1024 of the CRT
I end up at 2048*1024 ( the unused area included )which is quite near to the absolute maximum of 2048*1536 the graphics adapter
supports on ONE monitor at all. Perhaps that's just too much...
on the http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB7101O90002R01.htm you mentioned, the limit for aero with my 128 MByte VideoRam
would be 2.304.000 pixels - but only when one monitor is in use. There's no information about multi-monitor use.
so what, Aero is not that important, but when I have some time again, I will experiment a bit...
Ciao !

  • MBP display turns off when external monitor is attached

    Hi there,
    Over the last few days I have been trying to get Windows 7 to work with an external monitor. I am running a Mid 2012 15" Macbook Pro with a Nvidia GeForce GT 650M GPU. I sucessfully installed windows 7 in bootcamp and everything worked flawlessly until I try to connect my monitor with the mini displayport via a VGA <-> Displayport adaptor. When I connect it the monitor powers on, with the windows desktop and is responsive but the mouse dissapears and the MacBook Pro's monitor turns off. The mouse is still useable but invisible, so its very difficult to do anything. I have tried to update the Nvidia drivers as well as  trying everything I can think of and haven't been able to  find a solution. Has anyone else out there exerinced this, or found a solution?

    Okay, so a little update. I have determined that the problem is the nvidia driver. When I roll back the driver to the "Microsoft Basic Display Adaptor" driver and connect the monitor then it behaves as excpected. The external monitor isn't detected and everything continues to work properly.
    So is there anyone out there who is running a Mid 2012 15" MacBook Pro with an external monitor in either Windows 7 or 8.1? If so please let me know what your setup is and what driver version you are using. This is driving me crazy. Thanks.

  • Iphone 5  switches off when battery still has 15%

    After updated to iOS 7,  my iphone 5 always switched off when battery still have 15%. Anybody have the same issues?

    Sounds as if the battery may need to be recalibrated. Let the battery drain until it turns off. Then connect the phone to the charger and let it charge to 100%. Disconnect and then use it. It should get it back to a better read. The batteries are designed to shut down when the battery has a certain amount of power left. The battery percentage is not always that accurate.
    You can take a look at this link from Apple about batteries. http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html

  • Can I switch to an external monitor on boot without OS?

    I have a cracked screen and I freshly formatted the hard drive on Windows (So basically, my MAC has no OS but I have an installer). Will I be able to switch to an external monitor on boot so I could see the OS installation well? if so, how do I switch?

    Not in a position to test this exactly right now so I am just speculating.
    IF this is possible, it should just be a matter of connecting your external display prior to booting, then booting the computer up (I suppose into the recovery partition, or an install disk). Since the computer recognizes the built in display and doesn't know its cracked, it will still display on there (unless you go into clamshell mode by closing the computer after it loads up the external display). I don't know if it will default to mirroring or extending.
    Again, that is if it will work. Without an OS installed, I am not sure how it will behave.

  • IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  Please help

    IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  I did restore the iPad about 8 times during the past 2 weeks.  Just completed another restore.  iTunes says the the iPad has been restored and will restart automatically and appear in iTunes when it is ready.  That was 30 minutes ago.  iPad still won't start.  I am looking down the barrel of yet another fruitless restore.  What a crap product.

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

    yes, it's same like me. Only i can work with a 285.05 version from scratch. I have investigated and i think that there is a problem with lastest drivers with Geforce 9xxx series. Also i see other problems, slow scroll on websites navigation and other problems with compiz.

  • MacBook Air is getting hot when external monitor is connected - restart solves the problem

    I have a two weeks old Mac Book Air 11" (128GB / 4GB / i5). Sometimes when I connect it to my external monitor, the FAN is getting loud and the MacBook becomes very warm on the surface near the "F3 button". The activity monitor says CPU is at 0-1% and there's no process that causes any CPU load (I switched to "show all processes" of course). Nevertheless something makes the Mac becoming hot. A simple restart while the external monitor is connected solves the issue completely, temperature and fan speed are instantly decreasing. Is this a issue related to the graphics driver? For me it seems the behavior is caused by the graphics processor rather than by the i5 CPU as activity monitor does not show any process causing high CPU load.
    Known issue?
    Thanks!

    I was runnig into the same problem. Plugging in to the apple 23" display at work worked well, but when I plugged in my Dell 23" at home the fan started being noisy...
    ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION: it seems to me that putting the air to into SLEEP MODE and back solves it as well!!
    I will confirm later on.

  • X REALLY slow when external monitor plugged in at boot

    Hello all, I am running Kernel 2.6.29.4 with xf86-video-intel 2.7.1-1, Xorg 1.6.1.901 and EXA acceleration (no KMS) on my thinkpad T61 with an Intel X3100. (I keep up-to-date stable.)
    Whenever I have the VGA monitor plugged in to my laptop at boot time, when I log in using GDM it takes FOREVER to start XFCE. Super slow motion.
    If I wait to plug in the monitor until after X starts, and then type 'xrandr --auto' there is no problem whatsoever.
    In both cases, X correctly sets the video mode with no problem. Any idea what is causing the slowdown? Thanks!

    No, but I haven't tried in a while since I don't use an external monitor currently. Is it slow all the time, or only if you connect the monitor before X boots? Do you have intel graphics?

  • Extreme switches off when updating podcasts (too much data?) - the saga

    Issue:
    When refreshing podcasts the extreme can actually switch off, the status light on the extreme will switch off and it will not appear in the airport status menu. to recover I have to power cycle the extreme. There is no difference if I download only one podcast or allow for simultaneous downloads at a time. After about 1 or 2 times the extreme will just switch off.
    Under this same configuration, my iTunes library has no issue playing back any of the content only podcast refreshing causes the Extreme to shutdown after the specified time.
    Configuration:
    Three disks connected to the airport extreme using an unpowered hub by technika. All three disks are powered through their own power supplies and are formatted in HFS+ Extended (Journaled)
    You can find a youtube review of the hub here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fihYOsQ1SQ8
    iMac running Mac OS X 10.6.5 and all the latest updates. Disk Utility already run on the internal Macintosh HD and there are no errors to report.
    Mac is connected wirelessly to the extreme's wifi network using 802.11a (I have yet to get it to connect using 802.11g.
    Workarounds:
    Despite the two other disks not being accessed by the mac, as a workaround I conducted two isolation steps.
    I removed the other two disks from the hub while keeping the one disk with my iTunes Library connected through the hub, selected podcasts from the left hand side of iTunes and clicked refresh on the lower right corner of the iTunes window to get the latest podcasts to download.
    -With the one disk connected to the hub, music playing back and podcasts downloading everything seems fine.
    -I am now wondering if it's the hub or a limitation of the extreme or if it's because I am connected using 802.11a.
    -Although I didn't finish downloading all the podcasts, I paused all intentionally and switched my mac to 802.11g successfully by changing the radio mode on the extreme to 802.11n only (5GHz) - 802.11b/g
    -relaunched iTunes
    -refreshed podcasts again
    -The podcasts all stopped due to an error (sorry for not noting it)
    -connected to hard drive directly to the extreme and restarted the extreme for good measure
    -airport extreme not visible by mac wirelessly, reset extreme by pressing the button on back of extreme, which didn't do anything for some reason, power-cycled extreme.
    -Launched iTunes and refreshed iTunes Library
    -I noticed a few things, podcasts stop downloading due to err= -3150 or -3259
    -more spinning beach balls in uTunes than usual (disk and network activity are the likely causes.)
    -This setup seems flaky at best. Apple does not document this so I don't believe it's directly supported but it would be nice but I can see a lot of caveats beyond what I described.
    I don't know if this helps anyone who is trying to do the same but I would say this should be avoided as I don't think the firmware on the extreme can support this, iTunes 10.1 doesn't seem to work well with this setup as there are errors when downloading and it gets a bit sluggish with iTunes experiencing so many disk and network activity issues (beach balls)
    Moral of the story, I will go back to connecting my iTunes library disk directly to my mac unless someone has some clever solution or suggestion.
    Here are the setting as per Airport Utility in Manual Setup
    Airport Icon>Summary
    Version 7.4.2
    Wireless Mode: Create a Wireless Network
    Wireless Security: WPA2 Personal
    Internet Icon>Internet Connection
    Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode)
    Disks Icon>Disks
    3 hard drives connected.
    Tried with iTunes Library Disk alone connected through the USB hub and directly into the Airport Extreme in an effort to isolate the issue.
    Disk Icon>File Sharing
    Enable File Sharing - on
    Secure Shared Disks: With Airport Extreme password
    Airport Disk Guest Access: Not allowed

    Hi... mine crashes too, but it has to do with erasing a large amount of files.
    I got my airport extreme the other day, very excited to be able to plug my 500 gb drive into it so my wife and I can back up our machines using wireless (time machine). I had already had a years worth of backup on the hard drive, and didn't realize that over the base station the way its backed up is different from when the HD is just hooked directly to the computer.
    So, well... took forever to do a fresh back up, and then I went to erase my old time machine folder on my drive and every time I would request the delete over the network... crash the airport. I tried several more times, incl just doing a little folder. I ended up having to plug the drive directly into my machine and erasing it that way (over 700,000 files... so, not sure the Airport is designed to handle all that).
    This might explain why the time machine works differently over Airport (and Time Capsule?) as the hardware that Apple uses just isn't up to handling large files. Over Airport it creates a disk image which it writes to, somehow, rather than directly writing a large amount of files to the drive. Seems like a work engineering work around to me, otherwise why change the method?
    Cheers.

  • Iphone 3gs ios 6.0.1 keeps switching off when trying to use cellular data

    Hi everybody
    bought an used iphone 3gs a few days ago, the guy gave it updated to ios 6.0.1. I noticed as i put the phone on cellular data it switches off. and when turned on it comes till the unloack screen, and as i try to unlock it switches off again.
    Read a few threads and removed sim put the charger on and started and it starts and works like an ipod with no issues. After a while if i put the sim card and if its on charge it will work perfect with no problems.
    As i remove it from charge works until the battery level comes to approx 60 % and then turns off.
    Then i must again put it on charge , not because the battery is low but to start the phone.
    i have no idea whats goig on, first t ime apple usr and such horrible experience, any ideas?
    P.S - read many threads saying toggling on /off for cellular data. I cant do it without sim as i am on 6.0.1 .
    Please help phones really not doing what its supposed to. just switches off anywhere in meetings or on the go when i need to make calls.
    Thanks
