BLACK SPOTS ON IE AFTER WIN 8.1 UPDATE

Hi,
I have a Satellite C855-S5349. After update to Win 8.1, black and blinking spots appear on IE. Scrolling up/down or sliding the mouse in top of the stops, make those disappear. I checked IE updates, are up to date. Also i checked Toshiba updates, same thing. I attached a pic.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Solved!

I can only suggest now that you Refresh the Windows files. That will not disturb data files, but will require that you reinstall desktop applications. You would also need to upgrade to Windows 8.1 again.

  • Satellite P845T-107 with Win 8 PRO but after Win 8.1 update it isn't PRO

    Yesterday at Saturn Salzburg bought the notebook.
    It has on the bottom a PRO Windows 8 label.
    Unfortunately, I first initiated the update to 8.1 and then only a backup created on a USB stick.
    Windows has muddled up the the Pro version after Win 8.1 update.
    Can not join domain, as I expect from a PRO version actually.
    How do I get the original Pro version again?
    The label does so, that there must have been a Pro license.
    How do I get the licenses number?
    I'm A bit sour ... how Toshiba is helping me?

    Hi
    Regarding to the Toshiba Satellite P845T-107 specification page, the notebook was preinstalled with Windows 8 64bit.
    [Toshiba Satellite P845T-107 specification page|http://www.toshiba.de/discontinued-products/satellite-p845t-107/]
    It was not Pro version.
    You can also check all the details about this notebook on the Toshiba Unit Details

    I will need to put the serial number to get the information.

  • Yoga 13 after Win 8.1 update - apps for Netflix, CNN, ESPN, etc. will not play video - WTH?

    Can someone point me to where I can download the right driver(s) / updates that fix thw Windows 8.1 mess that crippled video playback in the Modern/Metro Win8 interface please?  
    I had other issues with wireless (which I fixed by buying a Linsys 802.11ac USB nub - finally decent range & performance), but really want to get this Win 8.1 video playback issue fixed.  
    OS is Windows 8.1
    Version 6.3.9600 Build 9600
    System Model 20175 
    System SKU Lenovo_MT_20175
    BIOS Version/Date Lenovo 66N55WW 2/28/2013
    BIOS Mode UEFI
    HD Graphics 4000 Driver date 10/1/2013
    Driver Version 10.18.10.3316
    Monitor driver is generic PnP Monitor by Microsoft, dated 6/21/2006
    Driver Version 6.3.9600.16384
    Purchased the system May, 2013.  
    Very disappointed that Microsoft/Intel/Lenovo forced this 8.1 "upgrade" on us without having checked it for flaws in operation like this.  I've read other people having this, and similar problems, so any fixes / suggestions / links are greatly welcomed.  

    (Note that all of the following applies only to the Yoga 13)
    I think the previous reply is inaccurate in several ways.  Let me address each one:
    "Seems like the fix for many of our Windows 8.1 update issues is to roll back to the Windows 8 drivers Lenovo offers on its site (Conexant Audio Driver in this case)"
    This isn't quite correct.  There is no need to "roll back" to any previous driver versions.  What actually happened with the Windows 8.1 upgrade is that the Windows installation process reinstalled or refreshed all of the drivers in the system, and for some reason this driver installation process screwed up and left some drivers not functioning correctly. In almost all cases the solution is to simply reinstall that driver with the current/same version. The Conexant driver is the poster child for this problem.  The version of the driver that comes with the Windows 8.1 upgrade is the same as the version on the Lenovo site.  However it is often necessary to reinstall this driver to get it installed correctly. 
    I just want to reiterate that this is not a version problem, it's a problem with the way 8.1 reinstalled the drivers. This need to reinstall drivers affected people differently, with some people needing to reinstall other drivers as well, such as the Intel Thermal Framework drivers, etc.
    Windows 8.1 comes with newer versions (also newer than the reposted drivers on the Lenovo site) of the network Wifi drivers that for my system have been an improvement. However I have not experienced a lot of the Wifi issues that others have reported.  The only issue I have had with Wifi is that it was always a bit slow to connect after coming out of sleep mode (30-60 seconds). After the 8.1 upgrade my Wifi connects very fast (less than 5 seconds).
    Windows 8.1 also came with an updated Intel graphics driver that is newer than the one on the Lenovo site.  I am not aware of any problems with this new version.
    My Yoga 13 is now functioning perfectly after the 8.1 update, although I did have to perform the reinstall of the Conexant drivers, and I had to reapply the fix for the touch screen missing the first swipe.  I recommend the list of Yoga 13 fixes mentioned on this site.
    "Microsoft or Lenovo should add a setting to the "Configure Windows Update" options - it should be "Wait 6 months after the update is published for it to stabilize"
    I don't agree with this as the drivers that come with 8.1 weren't unstable or problematic. Again, the problem is with the 8.1 installation process, and I do agree that Microsoft should work on fixing that.  It has certainly caused a lot of people some grief, but it also seems that we have a solution which is the driver reinstalls.
    I also don't recommend turning off Windows update.
    Finally, it may be that some of the issues you bulleted are more serious than I am aware, as I haven't had all of these problems.  I would like to know more about these:
    "Kill the video / audio in Windows Apps (aka "Modern" interface) - Netflix, ESPN videos, CNN videos, etc.  "
    This is certainly a common problem. At least we have the fix for this (reinstall the Conexant drivers).
    "Degrade WLAN performance (range and speed)"
    I am skeptical that 8.1 is responsible for Wifi issues.  Seems like in general the new 8.1 network stack is better.  I know that many people had wifi issues prior to the update.
    "Fuzz out the resolution / display such that Display has to be turned down from 150% to "small""
    I don't know about this issue, so I would like to hear more.
    Mess up touchpad, keyboard, tablet-mode keyboard
    This again seems more like a problem that existed before 8.1, as many people had issues with this.  The most consistent solution seems to be disabling the "ymc" service.

  • Auto-brightness Won't Turn off after Win 8.1 update

    I have a Y510P, and I got the Win 8.1 update about a month ago. Since then, my screen auto-dims whenever the average color of the screen is darker than plain white. So every time I am on a website that has a picture (like Facebook), as soon as I scroll to it, my entire screen dims. Also, I cannot watch videos without my laptop being plugged in because the screen is too dark to watch it on.
    When my laptop is plugged in, I have no issues. Also, even after the brightness is decreased, it tells me that my brightness is turned up all the way.
    I went into the advanced settings in control panel and have auto-brightness disabled, but it isn't helping. I tried accessing the NDIVIA settings to see if it's in there, but all I can access are simple controls, none of which affect brightness.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this? 

    this happened to me aswell please help

  • Grainy black spots in pictures after export. HELP

    I got a problem and I need advice quick! I do slideshow videos for wedding rehearsal dinners/receptions and I have one in Saturday. Some pictures in my slideshow are scanned in, some were put onto my MBP through a CD, the problem i have is that in every photo in the video there, where there is black in the picture, there is horrible, grainy dots things that take away from the meaning of these pictures. I'm using iMovie '09, and exporting in QT, because the video is going to be shown on a HD projector. It will be shown in 1080p. I need to know what i can do to get rid of the grainy spots in the pictures so i have a better quality video for this wedding. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    Don't the "grainy spots" appear when you look at the photos in iPhoto or 'QuickLook' when you've put them into your Mac?
    Which camera did you use to shoot the pictures? Did you shoot in dark suroundings, at a high ISO number, like 1600 or higher?
    "..Some pictures in my slideshow are scanned in.." ..scanned in from prints?
    "..some were put onto my MBP through a CD.." ..you mean that the photos were first burned onto a CD ..from the digital originals, or also scanned from prints?
    Do the "grainy spots" only appear when you introduce the pics into iMovie?
    It sounds like these pics may be "under-exposed", and the video processing in iMovie is trying to gather detail which may not be there.
    Can you post an example somewhere?
    It may be far better to make a slideshow in iPhoto - which is a photo-handling program, rather than use iMovie, which is a movie-handling program.

  • ThinkPad E545 - After Win 8.1 update: Can't start Dolby Audio ...

    I have just updated my ThinkPad E545 to Windows 8.1 today.  Every time after computer boots up, I get an Error message starting like "Dolby Advanced Audio - Can't start Dolby Audio. If this problem will stay restart the computer. I have Czech Wins that's why it should be little bit different. After restart the computer the note is there again. I found discussion where are helps like Uninstall Conexant, restart and then Install again. But the problem is still there. Maybe I do some mistake. Can anyone help me?

    hi Sperl19,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Your Dolby may not be synced with the Audio driver after the update,
       Since Audio driver may had been updated by the 8.1 but not the Dolby app.
    Here's what to do:
    Open Device Manager 
        Uninstall the Audio Device Under Audio inputs and outputs
                Then proceed to Control Panel / Programs / Uninstall a Program
                         Uninstall all Dolby Related programs
                                 Restart if Prompted
    Now install this software driver
     Conexant Audio Driver
    Now open Drive C: on the upper right hand side of the screen you will find a Search pane
         Type in "aa" and hit search
    You should find 1 of the result as dolby or if not post a screen shot of the results here
    If ever you found it install that and it should bring your dolby back
    Hope this helps
    Cheers!

    only  this one command won't work and it works on other machines with no issues. have latest updates for win 8.1 and excel office 365

    Hi Appraiser Genie,
    I found you have posted the
    similar thread a few days ago, I suppose they are the same issue. As Ethan said, we need to collect the event logs and see if any related error is logged.
    On the other hand, we have not received the related issue report about the updates of Windows 8.1 in Feb. Thus, I can't confirm this issue causes by these updates. I recommend you remove these updates to check if this issue still occurs.
    If you have any update, please feel free let us know.

  • Dynadock U3.0 - Not able to use Ethernet port after Win 8.1 update

    Hi everybody,
    i am using a Dynadock u3.0 dock with my Vaio SCP 13.
    Since I updated my device to Windows 8.1 Update 1 I am not able to use the Ethernet port of the Dynadock.
    Before that everything worked fine.
    I am not able to reinstall the drivers correctly (tried 7.6m0, 7.5m2). While the driver insaller tries to start i am getting an error message, that the installer is not able to set a bunch of registry Keys (SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DisplayLinkGA\D evice1) (till 0). (Image 1)
    If i ignore those messages and do install the driver, the Ethernet port will remain uninstalled in the device manager. (Image 2)
    If I try to install the driver manually (DisplayLink Network Adapter NCM), Ill get an error message that a driver was found but that the access was denied. (Image 3)
    I started the safe mode and could install the driver. But if I reboot to normal mode, the device could not be started.
    I also tried to disable UAC and I am logged in as the "real" administrator.
    Please find the error messaged attached (in German):

    BTW: If I unzip the installer (7.6m0) and install the *inf for the right ven&dev (4503) it still does not work...
    I dont know what to do anymore...

    Hi
    After Windows 8.1 upgrade, you should also update the Display Link driver/software
    This is very important!
    The latest driver can be downloaded here:

    Note: the old version should be removed!

  • Cant find Mac OS boot after win 8.1 update.

    Hi there,
    Ive had a look around the net for a possible solution but no luck so far.
    I recently installed Win 8.1 on a partition. My Macbook pro is a model A1398.
    I was trying to create a shared partition. From Mac OS I made the new shared partition ex-FAT. I went into Win 8.1 reformatted it (cant remember if I left it at ex-FAT). In the process of restarting Win 8.1 was nice enough to download some updates and restarted itself.
    From then on it doesnt see the Mac OS boot any more. Doesnt even boot into Windows! It has start up errors. I tried the command + R option and I cant do the following either:
    1. I cant seem to do anything useful (unless Im missing something) with Disk Utility. Diagnostics show that the Mac OS X install is fine.
    2. Cant re-install because it cant see any boot disk options to select from.
    Right now Im screwed. Cant do anything with my "fancy pants" macbook pro. Any help would me much appreciated!
    Cheers.

    Had to revert to wiping everything out and starting from scratch. Didnt have a back up so thats the only way. Set the partition to GUID and Mac OS journalled.
    Command + Option + P + R and then set it all to just one partition. Then re-install mac OS.
    If the above start up option didnt work, try the command R then try the above option again.
    Hoe this helps someone.

  • Anyone else getting the BLACK screen of death after Kitkat 4.4 update?

    Ever since the update, my phone is wacked, like everyone elses.  I got my Samsung Galaxy S4 a month ago.  Beautiful, loved it.  Update happens: I want to pitch this thing as far as I can throw it.
    The phone rings.  I go to answer it but all I have is a BLACK SCREEN which is LOCKED.  I have the lock on the screen, but if the screen is black, you can't see it - and you can't answer the phone!    One day, I got a message, and could not get to that.  Why?  the BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH.
    Someone told me to turn off Samsung Watch On and that has helped with some of the issues.  But I still get the screen occasionally, and my battery life is GONE.
    How do we get rid of this update?   Should I just call Verizon and get a new phone with the OLD software?  I hate this.  I feel like I was the victim of bait and switch.

    ltg123 - did you resolve the problem yet?  If so, let me know how.
    My (hopefully temporary) solution was to turn off my "Lock Screen" ... to do this, go to Settings, My Device, Lock Screen ... and select None.
    The only issue is that you would no longer have any security for your phone and would be vulnerable to someone stealing your phone and having full access to whatever is on your phone that does not require a separate id and password.  Dangerous, yes ... but, for me right now, it's better than not having any access to my own phone!
    The Android update simply sucks ... some heads should roll for allowing such a crappy update to get (no pun intended) rolled out.

  • E145: can't restore after Win 8.1 update

    Hi all, updated my E145 to Win 8.1 and installed some programs. Then had to do a restore. So pressed F11 on startup and clicked through the messages. As a target OS only 8.1 was listed?! Choosed it and then the recovery process stops. Systems says: PC can't be restored because there's a partition lacking (sorry for the bad translation, I'm on a German Windows).
    So now I'm stuck...
    Any help appreciated!

  • Atikmdag.sys BSOD appears on Satellite C850-19Q after Win 8.1 update

    Please help.
    I have Satellite C850-19Q (PSCBYE-00L00GY4), Windows 8 x64, after i update to 8.1 from store, show me BSOD (atikmdag.sys system_thread_exception_not_handled).
    I tried to reinstall windows and again install all driver and updates, nothing changed.
    Do you have any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sorry about my english mistakes

    > i have windows 8.1 before few months ,normaly update without errors, they work perfect and after windows update my system is crash,
    Maybe an further Windows updated muddled up the system. I know that graphic card drivers would be updated also automatically during system update too
    Uninstall the graphic card driver from device manager.
    Then download the Toshiba driver from Toshiba page and install it.
    Then please keep eye on further updates in case graphic card driver would ask for update, ignore this notification.
    Of course its only my idea but its worth a try

  • TS4062 my computer is no longer recognised as authorized to sync with my ipod touch after win 8.1 update

    OK, I did a recommended upgrade from WIN8 to WIN8.1 - for those of you who havent and are considering it..DON'T!!!!!!!!!!
    Amongst other problems, the i tunes store stops working, I even uninstalled and re installed..nothing helped, i tunes opens and then says this computer cannot sync with the ipod, go to i tunes store and go to Authorize this computer. I hit i tunes store in right hand corner, it starts to load then says itunes has stopped working blah blah....
    So I can't put songs from my computer onto my ipod touch, and visa versa.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

  • After Win 8.1 update - Lenovo System Update defective (doesn't find updates any more)

    Lenovo System Update tells me that all is up to date!
    I searched at Lenovo for new drivers for windows 8.1
    They asked me exactly what notebook I use. For the x1 carbone 3460-4LG (checked 3 times because I couldn't believe it) they discribed my computer as:
    i7-3667U(3.2GHz), 4GB RAM, 256GB Solid State Drive, 14in 1600x900 LCD, Intel HD Graphics, Intel 802.11agn wireless, WWAN, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure Chip, 4c Li-Ion, Win8 Pro 64.
    My notebook has 8GB RAM, 180GB SSD and (as I believe) no carbone x1 has 1GB Ethernet, because it has no network connector at all!
    So first question: can I believe the suggestions of lenovo for new drivers?
    There are several drivers released in October 2013 that I surely do not have already installed.
    That means, Lenovo System Update doesn't work any more, without error message!
    Question two: Has Lenovo a solution to repair their defective updater? Or will they release a solution?
    Very disappointed regards.
    Alex

    Another Workaroung wich could help is the Tool DriverEasy. It does scan yours system and shows you all missing Driver. The missing driver can be downloaded or directly installed.
    For me it found every missing Driver on different Lenovo Modells. The only thing to use it as Full Service, is you have to buy it for i think about 30 $.
