External monitor blue screen after upgrade

My external monitor has a blue screen with menu bar after updating 10.6.8 to Yosemite.  I can't apply a wallpaper as before.  Is there a fix?

  • Blue screen after upgrades - 3000 J115 7387-A32

    I recently upgraded the graphics card and memory on my Lenovo 3000 J115 7387-A32.  After the memory upgrade I noticed that when the computer booted it would 1) go to the blue screen, 2) automatically reboot, 3) boot normally to windows vista. 
    I upgraded the Graphics Card from an onboard Nvidia 6100 to an Nvidia 8500 GT pci expressI completed this upgrade a couple days prior to the memory upgrade and noticed no issues when booting the computer.
    I upgraded from 1 gig (2 x 512 mb) of memory to 4 gigs (2 x 2g) ddr2I did notice that the bios system summary notes the memory as 2.5g while the vista - control panel - system notes 4g, but based on the other posts that seems to be a 32-bit OS limitation and should not be causing the blue screen.
     After the computer boots normally, it acknowledges that it did not boot properly and offers to find a solution.  It notes that the problem is due to the NVIDIA nforce serial ATA driver (which as far as I can tell is not related to either graphics card?) and takes me to the NVIDIA site.  I scan my system for both graphics and motherboard, and the results of both scans are that I have the most up to date drivers available.
    I did update my bios through this process.
    It does eventually boot up and seems to be working fine, but the blue screen shouldn't occur and I would like to prevent it if I can.  I would appreciate any help on this issue.

    what are you specs cause i also had some bluie screen errors b4 ( didnt upgrade anything at that point)..and btw i am also looking for an upgrade on a graphics card...i found couple but i have no clue how much my lenovo 7387 can handle (in terms of power supply) can you please help me out here...

  • External monitor not recognized after upgrading to win 10

    After upgrading to Windows 10, my external Samsung monitor isn't recognized.  Not sure if I need new drivers from HP or Samsung (they say they don't have anything for me, of course). 

    Hello I managed to solve my problem of brightness key not working by Installing the Intel HD Graphic 3000 Driver from Intel official site. So if your Graphic card is Intel HD 3000 Graphic and your system is 64 Bit OS then you can follow the below link to download it and install.....https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24971/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-64-bit Note :- This Graphic driver only support the following intel Processor And If Your Are still running the built in intel graphic card, then only download it and install at you own risk.Supports Intel(R) HD graphics on:            2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 processor            2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 processor            2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 vPro(TM) processor            2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 processor            2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 vPro(TM) processor            Intel(R) Pentium(R) Processor  900/B900/G600/G800 Series            Intel(R) Celeron(R) Processor 700/800/B700/B800/G400/G500 Series

  • 10.5 server blue screen after upgrade

    Hi there,  I just upgraded my server from 10.3.9 to 10.5 server. The installation went fine but after the restart all I get is a blue screen. I left the machine alone for about 15 minutes before I booted again. In safe mode I can enter name and pass but nothing happens even after 3-5 minutes. 10.5 Server is on the same partition as 10.3.9 was. What am I missing?

    Never mind. I booted again in safe mode, entered my log and pass and went out for a few hours. When I came back 10.5 Server was up and running. Checked permissions and booted again in normal mode. All is well and I ran all available updates after checking permissions every time. Now I'm busy setting up new services.

  • Imac stuck on Blue screen after upgraded to 10.6.8 combo

    Hello,
    I been using imac since 2007, I started upgrading my imac this week from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I want to get mountain lion so I was doing the final upgarde from Snow Leopard 10.6.7 to 10.6.8 and it was almost completed the install when my screen went black. I shut down the computer and when it rebooted the screen stayed on blue and it's not moving. The wheel is spinning on the screen like it searching for something. I try to reboot in safe mode not doing anything. I don't have the original Tiger 10.4 disc that the iMac came with, all I have is the Snow Leopard disc that I just purchase to do the upgrade. I am stuck and I don't know what to do at this point...HELP!! Can anyone confirm if there is an issue with the Snow Leopard upgrade 10.6.8 combo. I downloaded it from the apple support site.

    Hi, there is no problem with the combo10.6.8 for 99.99999% of the people.
    Do NOT attempt to use a Tiger/10.4 Disc to repair anything even if you had one.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X 10.6 Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    If it still reboots to the blue screen, reinstall 10.6.x
    Then the big 10.6.8 Combo...

    Repair Permissions afterwords, reboot.

  • External Monitor Not Working After Upgrade

    Hello friends.
    I upgraded computer and software (Production Premium CS5.5). I use an external deck that is connected through Firewire. Premiere Pro sees the deck but does not output the image/video to it. I even managed to capture from the deck into Premiere without a problem. No matter what I've tried Premiere won't export to the NTSC monitor. It did in Production Studio Premium. With the Premiere software I had before it would export any SD NTSC image or video. I produce a weekly television show and my external NTSC monitor is a must for color calibration. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Blue Screen after clean reinstall snow leopard

    I have a mid 2011 that came with Snow Leopard and disks.  I upgraded from there to Lion - then whatever came next and to Mavericks and finally Yosemite, which was a nightmare for me. I did not use disks of any of the rest.  So I just decided to take my disks and go back to Snow Leopard.  I did this and it asked to go to disk utility and repair both the HD and Permissions.  It came out ok, but there was an instance where looking at the list in HD repair, I saw Suid File System Library Core was moved and cannot be repaired. I went ahead and erased the Hard Drive. Then closed out and installed Snow Leopard. I'm not sure I did it right because I had to rename the new start up disk and typed in unnamed 1.
    after that I was able to start up to Snow Leopard. It worked fine until I tried to download all the updates. Then it didn't seem to restart, but just went to the sign in screen.  So I had to keep shutting down and turning it back on. No updates. One of times I started up, I got the blue screen after the apple and gray screen.
    Also on start up the apple comes up without the chime. Last night I got some instructions from a similar situation and tried to use my disk to a clean reinstall all over.  It didn't work, still the blue screen. (it does fine in safemode.)
    I need help to get this mac running.  If someone can help me......

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Blue screen after update to 10.6.2

    After i updated my iMac 24, it restarted, got past the grey screen with apple logo, then get's stock in the blue screen after that. I can move the mouse but that's it. I tried restarting en reset my PRAM, nothing. Then i disconnected everything extrenal, restarted after resetting PRAM again, nothing???
    What do i have to do??????
    Thanks for any help
    Hans

    Same issue as alembee. Clean install of 10.6. Installed Xcode from disk. Changed a few preferences. Got prompt of 10.6.2 update (plus iTunes and Remote access). When updates were installed, I was given the options to "restart now" or "restart later". I chose now. It looked like I was logged out, but the computer (original MBP Core Duo) stalled at the background nebula/aurora image. I could still move the mouse. Since I enabled ssh remote login, I tested it from another computer. Sure enough, I could login to the MBP and see all the processes running (top). I executed a "sudo reboot" to remotely restart the system.
    I put in the 10.6 disc (held down "c") and went to Disk Utility. Ran Verify Permissions and Verify Disk for good measure (nothing wrong). I have upgraded the RAM and HD since purchase, but I don't see how this would be an issue. Since I was able to login remotely, it was seems to be an issue with proper logout and restarting.

  • Emac freezes on mac osx screen after upgrade

    I recently bought the new keyboard and downloaded the upgrade through the apple website. My System update started at the same time and it upgraded the most recent iphoto and osx powerpc update. Im running tiger on my emac and it was fine till I re-started. When it starts back up, the screen goes to the screen with the grey apple and then proceeds to the screen where the chrome mac osx is about to start up but it just sits there. I tried booting up with safe mode but it doesn't do anything and I tried starting it up doing the shift/command/option/delete and that doesn't do anything as well.
    Did any of the updates cause this problem and if so, how do I get into my computer to fix this if it won't let me in with all the reboot options. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Same boat as miQ: This eMac (1.42GHz, 512MB RAM) hangs at blue screen after Apple logo/gear and before startup progress bar. Tried reformat/zero then install Panther, but machine will not boot from Panther install disk (produces broken Apple logo and hangs). Erase/reformat and install Tiger = OK, but machine only boots in SafeMode (normal boot = blue screen). Started with 10.4.0 and updated to 10.4.11 by restarting in SafeMode with updates, no change. Disk Utility = all good (in SafeMode).
    Lost audio somewhere along the way, too: No startup tone, Sound Prefs say no output device detected, mute is checked and unavailable, sound menu vanishes from menubar when clicked. (Speakers are built-in and connected, just as they were when we started.)
    Boots in SafeMode, works as expected, but normal startup hangs at blue screen, 100% of the time. While 512MB RAM isn't much these days (2x256 verified), it should be enough for a fresh install and OS only, no? Firmware issue? (Won't boot from Panther or OS9.) Boots into Startup Manager (w/option key) and shows internal HDD: Then, Apple logo, gear, and blue screen, as usual. Goes to sleep eventually, then refuses to wake. Logic board? Sure acts like a software issue.....
    Any suggestions/ideas/clues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  • Stuck on blue screen, after os x loads

    Unable to get MacBook pro to move past blue screen after os x loading bar completes. Doing safe start gets me past login screen only to freeze on blue screen again. I've tried running applejack, I've tried re-starting holding down shift + ctrl + option and I've tried starting using command + d. All methods end with the same results, frozen blue screen. To make matters worse, the disc drive recently decided to crap out.

    It's possible. You should make a good up to date backup before reinstalling the OS.
    Do you have a friend with a Mac, and do you have an empty external hard drive? If so, you can mount your Mac's hard drive on your friend's desktop using FireWire target Disk Mode:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    You can also mount the external hard drive on your friend's Mac. Once that is done, you can use Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner to make an exact copy of your Mac's hard drive on the external, which will give you a good up to date backup. It should preserve everything on your hard drive including all the files.
    I believe that you can use your friend's optical drive to install the OS on your boot drive, but I don't know in detail exactly how to do this.
    Probably someone else on this thread could provide the details.
    Good luck!

  • Blue screen after Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered

    I get a PAGEFAULT_IN_NONPAGEDAREA blue screen after I encounter multiple Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered.
    Anyone encounter this issue and how to you send info to apple for them to fix their buggy code?
    Their support of code which will run bug-free on vista seems to be lacking (I understand there are two parties to this marriage).
    Help anyone?

    I noticed a few days ago that (at least on my box) Quicktime seems to have "issues" with >31 characters anywhere in the file path.
    Is it possible that you have some folder along the way to your movie that has more than 31 charaters?
    Shorten if necessary and see if that works.

  • My Macbook will not boot the operating system.  It just goes to a blue screen after the apple logo and the spinning wheel goes off.  I took the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the old mac os disk.

    My macbook will not boot.  It goes to a blue screen after the logo and wheel goes off.  I have taken the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the the original os disk but have not put it in for fear of losing un backed op data.
    Thanks

    You won't lose any data unless you erase your hard drive.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c"key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it.When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've selected the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
