Diablo 3 - ROS Black Screen with Sound

After starting D3 in Full Screen (win 8.1), the screen is black but you can hear the music in the background. I had to exit and manually reset the config file to start D3 in Window Mode. By doing this, however, I then cannot alter the screen size down from the Max. I want to do this to conserve energy when using my GS60 Ghost with no power. In Ultra mode, I barely get 60 mins of play from a full charge.
Any work around to get D3 to start in Full Screen properly??

I saw the [Blue Post] in D3 forum (See following links).
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/9873787537
Absolutely, it looks like the D3 problem. I tried to modify the parameter of [DisplayModeWindowMode]. And it really works for me. Following are the steps.
1. Click the [Search].
2. Search for [D3Prefs]. And we can find [D3Prefs.txt] in result.
3. Modify [DisplayModeWindowMode] to [2]. (Default is 0)
(Note)
DisplayModeWindowMode:
[1] is Windows mode.
[2] is full screen

  • Black Screen with Sound on OpenGL Apps (nVidia GeForce4 MX 440)

    After a couple weeks of a non-stop search for a solution that has taken me through countless forums and Google queries, I've come to the realization that I need some help before I drive myself insane. I am running an old emachine T3065 with an AMD Athlon XP 2.167 MHz processor, 1024 MB of RAM, 160 GB HD, and a good old integrated (POS) nVidia NV18 GeForce4 MX 440 displayed on a widescreen Acer X191W LCD panel. I followed the instructions dictated in the nVidia installation wiki to a 'T', and can start GDM and log into Gnome without any conflict. Then when I attempt to launch a 3D OpenGL game or application, I'm stuck with a black screen where I can still hear sound (in fullscreen mode) or, in a few windowed programs such as foobillard and Google Earth, a three-dimensional shape without textures. Here's a couple screenshots:

    As you can see, direct rendering is enabled. This left me fairly perplexed.
    Issuing glxgears returned a smooth animation without error running at an average of 1750 frames per second. I then began toying with my xorg.conf settings by turning "RenderAccel" on and off, trying the different "NvAGP" ranges, etc. All without revealing a solution. Here is my current xorg.conf:

    Perhaps the warnings pertaining to my monitor and ACPI are pertinent?
    Is it possible that there is some kind of issue with my configuration and OpenGL textures since I can still see some non-textured 3D objects? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am beyond frustrated with the matter. On a sidenote, in my latest issue of Linux Pro Magazine, I booted up a Sabayon live disc that game with the magazine and I had the same error except that a message blatantly said that I did not have OpenGL support. Anyway, I apologized if I rambled a bit and I hope that we'll be able to find a solution. Cheers!

    I guess I forgot to disclose that bit, haha. I'm currently using the 'nvidia-96xx' drivers which I thought were the correct set for the GeForce4 series. I recall reading that in a wiki somewhere, but I could be mistaken. I thought 'nvidia-71xx' was for GeForce2 and earlier.I really hope it is as simple as me installing the wrong driver.

  • Satellite L750D - Black screen with sound in media players

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L750D and running Windows 7. When I play a video file (any format) windows media player opens and starts to play but I only get sound, no picture its a black screen. I tried 2 other media players (VLC and Power DVD) and the same thing happens.
    Can anyone help?
    I've searched online but nothing has helped so far.
    Thanks.

    Thanks PauPau for your reply.
    I have seen this fix in another online forum, however when i open Options in WMP, there is no Advanced button on the performance tab. I have been unable to locate any options for the Video Accelaration, and no options for 'overlays'.
    This problem is not just with WMP, i've tried other players and get the same problem. When WMP is open on the video file, i can see the thumb nails with a picture of the video, but when i open them the picture is black but sound is ok. This is the same for the other media players as well.
    Another suggestion i read was to turn off WMP in windows programs, then reboot and then turn WMP back on. This didn't work either. I have also checked the driver and there is no yellow flag on this to say there is a problem.
    My last option at this point is to resotre back to factory settings, but i'll use this as a last resort.
    Your suggestions are appreciated.

  • When plugged into computer a song started skipping, pressed pause but ipod sounds makes a clicking sound. Eventually goes to black screen with red cross. Cannot reset it and doesn't register on my computer.

    I had my iPod plugged into my computer and was playing the songs from there. One song started skipping so I pressed the pause button, the ipod kept making a clicking sound like it was still struggling to play the song, eventually went to a black screen with a red cross with apple.com/support/ipod underneath. Have tried to reset it but does not work, comes up with apple logo and immediately makes the clicking sound and then crashes.
    Is there anyway I can get my music and photos off?? I just got a new computer and had lost everything on my old one so only have the songs and photos on my ipod, desperately want to get them on to my computer.

    You may have damaged the HDD which is located in that spot. I would take it in for service.

  • I am going to sell my second generation ipod touch, so i resetted it to factory defaults. It said it would take up to an hour, and i patiently waited. But when the black and white loading bar completed, the ipod went to the black screen with an apple logo

    I am going to sell my second generation ipod touch, so i resetted it to factory defaults. It said it would take up to an hour, and i patiently waited. But when the black and white loading bar completed, the ipod went to the black screen with an apple logo on it. Sounds about right, right? But now, there is a processing circle on top of the logo, but the circle spins once, and stops at about halfway to the bottom. It just stays there, and about every half to one hour it becomes a white screen and starts all over again. (not the loading bar part, just the circle). I've tried holding the power and the home button, and it works, but it just goes back to the circle screen with the apple logo. HELP PLEASE?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Xorg-server 1.6 - black screen with mouse cursor

    Hi
    First of all: I'm really new to Arch, so maybe there is a real easy fix for this problem
    Since upgrading to xorg-server 1.6 (and today to 1.6.1) I'm not able to get a running Desktop Environment.
    Usually I am using gnome with compiz-fusion on my Geforce 4 (nvidia-96xx 96.43.11-4 driver).
    When I boot my machine i see gdm and I am able to login. I can hear my login sound but I only get a black screen with a mouse cursor.
    I added a new test user to my system without compiz and get the same.
    I tried my old xorg.conf from 1.5, generated a new one with X -configure and tried without xorg.conf but everytime the same
    Actually I'm not sure if the xorg update is responsible for this, because i did not watch the upgrade-process....
    I googled this problem and was searching similar things in this froum, but I wasn't able to find something
    Here are some files

    I'm having a very similar issue. Sometimes, when I boot and type in startx (I'm not even a GNOME user--I use dwm and no graphical login manager), I just get a black screen. No mouse cursor, so I think X doesn't even load. It only started with the xserver 1.6 update and the update to that hasn't changed anything. What I've been doing is just rebooting until it loads normally (takes one to three times). Is anyone else having this problem?

  • Vista Home Premium: Following install, black screen with mouse cursor

    I have tried installing with Boot Camp (v2.0) twice now with the same result.
    After the install is complete, the mac reboots into windows. I should see the Vista welcome screen but instead I get the black screen with a mouse cursor. The mouse is functional but clearly not much use!
    A subsequent reboot brings up the options for restarting following an unclean shutdown of windows. Running in safe mode, the restart hangs. The last dll loaded was crcdisk.
    I am running an OEM version - once activated (assuming I ever get that far) - the installation will be locked to the mac... which is fine.
    Googling the problem reveals some early Vista beta issues with graphics that caused a similar problem. Does Vista have an issue with the 8800GT that is fitted in my Mac?
    Any help/ideas/suggestions/fixes much appreciated. Rather stumped.
    I would load up XP Pro but I dont have an installer with SP2 :/

    Well my problem turns out to be a bad disk. I added two seagate 7200.11 750GB drives. Once which was making ominous ticking sounds. Vista took an age to install and really, I should have caught on earlier.
    When I got a bunch of disk i/o errors creating a Fusion VM of XP Pro I decided to remove the disk and to try the other unit.
    Vista installed very rapidly indeed and worked. Yes worked.
    Hurrah! Problem solved.
    Time to see about replacing that disk...

  • Sometimes when I open my laptop back from sleep, I get a black screen with the cursor showing.

    Recently I've been getting this weird problem where my macbook air will show a black screen with only the cursor visible that I can move around but nothing else can be done to get to the desktop. The only way is to close the lid and wait for around 10 or more seconds and then open the lid again to bring the laptop back from sleep and hope that the laptop goes to the lock screen and then to the desktop. This works often but sometimes the only solution seems to be to restart the laptop. This also happens when I tilt the lid to the point where it is almost closed and when I tilt it back the screen presents the above state. Theis has been happening often now and it is almost impossible for the above not to happen atleast 2 to 3 times a day. iThis is a relatively new problem that has been occuring since the past two weeks or so and never happened to me on my Macbook Pro 15 2011. My current system is a Macbook Air 11" 2013 Haswell 1.3 Ghz 4GB RAM 256 GB SSD. Now I dont want to have to send in my laptop if I dont have to if there is a way I can solve this myself. Anybody else have this problem?

    Hello tseten,
    I would be concerned too if my MacBook Air was not waking from sleep appropriately.  For an issue like this, I recommend resetting your System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Tecra M2 - black screen with the cursor flashing

    Hi guys,
    Im hoping someone out there may be able to help me fix my laptop.
    Ive read a couple of posts but not sure they can help me.
    When I swicth on my Tecra M2, I just end up with a black screen with the cursor flashing in the top left or I get a screen filled with alternating 0's and 1's.
    Sometimes the TOSHIBA splash screen appears with the boot options, other times it doesnt.
    I cannot boot to CD and it wont boot to the HDD. Ive taken the HDD out and the CDROM out but it does the same thing which to me suggests that its not getting through the BIOS even as far as the boot sequence.
    Does this sound like BIOS failure to you and do you know of a way to fix it? Ive tried taking the battery out, powering off and starting again but the same thing happens.
    Any advice would be be appreicated.
    Thanks,
    Ross

    I have had this twice now and in both cases it was caused by a faulty HDD - to confirm that the motherboard etc is still OK load the recovery CD in the DVD drive (or even better a freestanding XP disc), press F2 on startup and shift the cursor under the DVD drive as the boot drive.
    If the motherboard etc is OK you will get the reload instructions (from the recovery disc) or a Windows install screens (from the XP install disc).
    Satisfied that the machine at least works - replace the HDD and recover from the recovery disc or try a Windows repair from the recovery console (from the XP install disc with the HDD still in place).
    In my cases I was forced to recover to a new HDD and then rebuild the machine from backups - I now clone the HDD when rebuilt.

  • Windows 7 on Boot Camp stuck at black screen with blinking cursor... starts up fine in Parallels desktop

    Hi,
    Recently my dad's Windows 7 (Ultimate 64-bit) on his Mac Pro has stopped working. It gets stuck at a black screen with a blinking cursor. I've waited at least five minutes and it doesn't do anything, I have to power it off.
    However it starts up perfectly fine and intact in Parallels desktop. If I insert the original installation DVD and boot from the Disc that says 'Windows' it will boot into the partition and work fine, unless I press a key to boot from the DVD.
    I find both these things to be strange. The partition is backed up, which is fine, but I'd rather not have to re-install it if possible.
    I have booted from the DVD and tried to repair the disk. It said it found a problem with something related to startup and that it needed to restart to repair it. I clicked yes, and then held alt/opt and (I think wrongly) booted back into the disc rather than the Windows partition. However it now says that it can't detect any problems.
    In the repair my computer section when booting from the DVD, it detects the OS as Windows Vista Business. I followed these steps I found online:
    Fixed! Peroblem was I think using OEM, which Bootcamp advise against using... they advise to use retail only. Fixed like this:
    1. Put the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start your computer.
    2. Hold down Option key till all available disks are displayed and select DVD. Press a key when you are prompted.
    3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then 4. click Next.
    5. Click Repair your computer.
    6. Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.
    7.In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt.
    Type (these commands are safe)
    Code: Bootrec.exe /FixMbr
    Code: Bootrec.exe /FixBoot
    Code: Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd
    *Press ENTER after each command.*
    *Restart your computer.*
    Done. Rockin'
    FixMbr was successful, as was FixBoot. However RebuildBcd reported that it found no Windows installations.
    Does anyone know what could be wrong here? I should note that recently I removed the drive Windows 7 is installed on and put it back in. Also Windows Updates probably have been done by my dad. Not sure if they could be the problem.

    Cult, welcome to the forum.

  • Windows boots but won't load (Black screen with cursor)

    [Sorry for the long post, but I feel the need to fully explain my situation]
    I have the following problem:
    I turn on my PC, and Windows shows it's normal loading screen, after which it goes into a completely black screen, with just the mouse in the middle. By the cursor size I can tell that it's in a low resolution, probably 800x600 (compared to my usual 1920x1080). I am able to move the mouse around, but with no particular use without something to click on. No other keyboard input seems to work, except for Shift key 5 times, which brings up the Sticky Keys dialog box (with just "Yes" or "No" options, no other link); and Windows key+U which brings up the Ease of Access center. Ctr+Alt+Del does NOT work.
    So far this is what I have tried (in chronological order):
    Boot into Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking, Safe Mode with Command Prompt, Booting in low resolution video, Last known good configuration: all yield the same result as booting normally.
    Repair your computer:
    Startup Repair: Found Registry Errors (I realized and fixed this later on)
    System Restore: Did not find any previous restore points (I know for sure that there are, I made a habit of making restore points regularly).
    Windows Memory Diagnostics: Did not find errors.
    Command prompt:
    Ran chkdsk /f /r command, did not report errors.
    Ran sfc /scannow : I don't remember the exact report, but it asked for a restart to finish repairing problems. I restarted, and ran the command again for the same result.
    Forced the scan with: sfc /scannow /offbootdir=c:\ /offwindir=c:\windows , it found and repaired some errors, still could not load windows.
    Ran Dell Startup Diagnostics, found no errors.
    Ran Startup Repair again, found the registry errors again. I found the solution to this in a Microsoft Help forum ( answers.microsoft.com/.../f77d5355-b8be-41d6-af24-cae994e1768f ), and fixed the issue. I rebooted, but the problem persists.
    Startup Repair now finds no errors. I tried System Restore again, it found 2 restore points dated AFTER my problem started. I decided to restore anyways, but neither of them worked.
    I ran Windows Defender Offline:
    Quick Scan: and found 2 threats and removed them.
    Full System Scan: found 4 more threats, removed 2 of them, the other two couldn't be removed because they were within an ISO file.
    I tried Steps 1, 2 and 3 again with no luck.
    With each step I am aware that I'm closer to having to reinstall Windows, so I decided to see if I could still access my HHDD to save my personal files. I made a Linux live CD (with Ubuntu), but I am having trouble mounting the drives, because they are in a RAID0 configuration. "sudo dmraid -s" gives the following error: "ERROR: isw: wrong number of devices in RAID set "isw_dbdffjficc_ARRAY0" [1/2] on /dev/sdb".
    Important Details:
    I changed my graphics card about 4 months ago (an Nvidia GTX 750ti for an ATI Radeon HD 6450), and I was told that I may be running short with the Power Supply. The new card asks for a minimum of 450W and I think my PSU is 460W. This may or may not have something to do with this issue, I have no idea.
    The RAID0 configuration of my 2 500GB Hard Drives brought me a lot of problems from day 1. One of the HDD would randomly fail (I am able to hear a different clicking sound when this happens), and the computer would crash. Upon startup, it would ask for a boot device. The Dell startup utility would then only recognize 1 of the drives, but would finish without errors. After a restart or two, all would be fine and windows would boot normally (aside from the usual error recovery screen) without any sign of corrupted data or anything. Like I said, this has been happening form the day my PC arrived, but restarting a couple of times always fixed it. As of now, both HHDD seem to be working fine, the Dell utility recognizes both of them, and does not find errors in any of them, and I can access any directory from the command prompt.
    Is there anything else I should try before reinstalling Windows?
    Before the install, I would really like to be able to recover my files (I have important documents from college), is there any way to do this?
    Sorry again for the extremely long post (and for any language errors, English is not my native language), and thanks in advance.

    Since you still haven't got your data from the drive(s). I would advise performing a Windows installation without formatting the drive... I don't like this solution but at this stage you have probably tried everything else.
    Use a Windows 7 Reinstallation DVD when installing ensure you select...
    Select Custom: Install Windows only (advanced)
    If you do not select any of the drive options and simply highlight the largest partition and select next:
    Windows will dump all the old installation files in the Windows.old folder

  • GS70 - Does not boot - black screen with solid white dash

    Sorry for the long post - I've been beating my head against this problem all day, filed a report ticket and really need help from anyone who has ideas.
    Yesterday evening after finally relenting and allowing the patch Tuesday updates to install on my GS70 Stealth I tried to power on my computer and it remained stuck at the MSI logo. I waited 3 hours with no success before powering it off and attempting to access the bios by hitting the delete button. The screen turned black except for one non-blinking white dash near the center of the screen. This screen also remains indefinitely and requires a hardware power off to work. I've tried all of the function key presses and recovery shortcuts to no avail.
    Eventually I tried to boot into linux via a live USB. I still could not access the bios but, to my surprise, so long as this USB is in my system, Windows happily boots. After this I tried to revert to a system restore point before the updates but that did not resolve the problem. I also tried to update the BIOS but there is no way to install BIOS updates that I know of that doesn't require accessing the old BIOS first (which I cannot do because the black screen with a white dash is still all that shows up). I tried forcing the UEFI bios to load through windows recovery settings with no luck either.
    I've sent in an RMA/Support request and hopefully MSI will repair or replace my device but I sent it in for an RMA literally less than two months ago and to be having to do it again so soon is starting to turn me off of the product. For me to insure and ship my device to MSI costs a little over $100 each time which is rapidly turning this $1600 product into an $1800 one and turning me from an MSI brand loyalist to a 'one-star-review everywhere' evangelist. Is it possible that something MSI did during the last RMA screwed up my motherboard (they replaced the disfunctional steel series keyboard with a new marginally more functional steel series keyboard)? Does MSI ever cover the shipping costs for an RMA if the RMA is a result of damage that they caused to the device? Is there anything I should do to try to avoid burning more money trying to get a luxury-priced product I've already paid for to function?

    i had similar problem myself on my first GS70 it has some sort of bios problem that it random hangs itself :/ causes OS not to boot and bios refuses to load but i managed to get my recovery USB to boot but not bios yet so i sent laptop off for repair they replaced the motherboard so i got it back then i had an faulty gpu :/ so i took it back and got money back so i bought new one some where else since than i havent had problem so this sort of problem sounds like bios firmware isnt booting propertly :/ so have you tried removing msata and HDD from laptop and then power laptop on? to see if bios gets forced on if so power it off put msata back on and so then power laptop back on and bios shall work again

  • Black screen with white writing on boot - then nothing...

    Ok, this is a long story, but here's the abridged version;
    I have a mac mini - the old PPC version. It has just come back from being repaired - replacement logic board. However, repaired it is not. Every time i try to start it up, I get a brief white screen with grey apple logo as normal, and then a black screen with white writing on. The writing is exactly the same text as you can see in the console system log. It gets about a page-full through this, and then goes completely black. No video at all.
    However, the machine is still working in there - I know this because I'm typing on it now via VNC. It is perfectly happy and all. It just does this weirdness start up and then no video.
    My question is twofold:
    1. The company that repaired it claims that it booted fine before they gave it back to me; however, it hasn't since I've had it back. Could the boot behaviour be some kind of diagnostic thing they left on my machine, or a mode they left it in. If so, how do I get rid of it?
    2. Failing this, does it sound like my vidoe card packed up maybe?
    Thoughts, solutions, etc., most welcome!

    Have you
    tried to simply do a clean install of Mac OS X and
    your other software? I normally find that this fixes
    90%+ of all unexplained software related issues.
    I could, but (a) I'm not convinced it's not related to the replacement logic board and thus a hardware issue, and (b) I can't see to do a clean install because it has no video signal

  • HT5858 I have had difficulty launching sites from within my email messages.  So, in trying to revert to the default settings on my iPad I went into "Settings" and reset everything.  Now, I have a black screen with a white apple and a white line!  What do

    For the last severl weeks I have had difficulty launching sites from within my email messages.  Thinking that I may have gone into "Settings" and set something wrong, I decided to reset to the default settings.  So, in "Settings" I chose reset everything.  Now, when I turn my iPad on all I get is a black screen with the picture of a white apple and a white line below it.  Nothing else works.  What can I do?  Do I need to send this back to Apple to be restored?

    You will hopefully be able to restore it yourself. It sounds like you erased all constant and settings rather than resetting all settings. But I'm basing my theory on the fact that you are seeing the Apple logo with the white progress bar (the white line) on the screen. That's what you would see if the software was being reinstalled and then it stopped on you. If that is what happened, you need to restore again and most likely need to use recovery mode.
    You can read about recovery mode here.
    Recovery mode - Apple
    However ...... If you are seeing the white line when you turn the iPad, let it go for twenty minutes or so, before you try restoring again. There is possibility that the software is still be installed and it can take a while before you see that white line move at all indicating that progress is being made.
    Frankly, I don't think that the software is still being installed, but since you didn't say specifically how long the iPad has been like this, it could just be that the software hasn't finished installing yet. If you know better - meaning that it's been like this for hours or longer, then you do need to restore the device.
