I just purchased a HP dv6 and games do not open or run in full screen mode, upgrade already?

Just purchased my laptop.  Is upgrading my graphics driver necessary already or is this considered a maintenance type thing where upgrades are normal as they become available?

Kelly, welcome to the forum.
Updating the drivers is a maintenance procedure.  They should normally be updated as they become available.  You can run Windows Update and HP Update to get the latest drivers and other updates.

  • Just purchased Xcelsius Server 2008 and it will not open

    I have been using the xcelsius 2008 server trial edition and decided to purchase the full product.  After I paid, I received a product key and a link to download.  When I open the trial version, it has a link to enter a product key, so I entered the key I was given.  I got a message that this key was invalid.
    So I clicked the download link and downladed a new file.  It downloaded and installed with no problems (including accepting the key I was given).  But now, when I try to open the application, the Xcelsius logo comes up, but then it immediately pops up a Windows message bos that says "Xcelsius has stopped working" and shuts down.
    There are now two shortcuts and two folders for Xcelsius.  I tried both the old and the new with the same result.
    I am using Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit.  Can anybody help?

    Hi
    Try and run it from the start menu as administrator.
    Also look at the size of your RAM, anything under 4G, may result in possible instability.
    If it does not work I would suggest, unstall both instances.
    Restart the machine and install the working application.

  • Just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    Best route here is to uninstall iTunes completely using the Windows Control Panel.
    Make sure you know exactly which version of Win 7 you're running.
    Restart your computer from cold (with no iTunes).
    Go to Apple website and download the correct version for your operating system.  Install following Apple prompts.
    Once installed, close iTunes.
    Restart your computer from cold (with new iTunes).
    Start iTunes - all should be operating well!  Good luck ...

  • I just downloaded Premiere Elements 9 and it will not open Help!

    I just downloaded Premiere Elements 9 and it will not open Help!

    kmeg55
    From where did you download Premiere Elements 9 at this late date? What computer operating system is it to be running on?
    Do you have the 9.0.1 Update installed?
    Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Premiere Elements 9.0.1 update
    Are you getting any display card errors?
    We have just gone down this type of road with another 9 user, so let us start with what finally seems to have worked for him.
    What video card/graphics card does your computer use? Is the driver for that card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of that card? If not, update the card driver. If the driver is up to date already, then delete the BadDrivers.txt file.
    For now I will assume that you are working on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    Local Disk C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    9.0
    and in the 9.0 Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. Make sure that you are working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path shown. After you deleted the BadDrivers.txt and reopened Premiere Elements, the program will generate a new BadDrivers.txt file but now the problem should be gone.
    Please review, consider, and then let us know the outcome.
    The rationale behind deletion of the BadDrivers.txt file can be found in post 10 of the following thread

  • TS1398 I have just purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi. It detects my wifi network but will not join. I have a Mac, 2 iPhones and an iPad 4 and all work perfectly. The new iPad mini just won't behave. Any ideas?

    I have purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi network. Any ideas?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • I just purchased a MacBook Pro and I can not use my Clear broadband.

    I just purchased a Mac pro book and I can not use my Clear broadband. A message pops up saying the operating system is running in 64 bit mode . Please switch to 32 bit mode.  How do I swich the mode and will this cause problems. There must be other MacBook Pro operators that use Clear broadband as their internet connection.

    Never heard of them but I Googled and took a look. Seems as if they offer either a USB modem or a 'home' modem - which do you have?
    If you're on a newer Mac (and I see that you are) and running Mountain Lion you cannot start up in a 32-bit kernel. I'm not sure if thise is directly related to the question, actually, as some applications will actually let you 'open' in 32-bit mode. If you're using an application that runs the modem software, try selecting it and doing a "Get Info" (Command-I) from the Finder and see if there is an option to "Open in 32-bit mode".
    Good luck,
