New r7850 black squares across screen

Hi, my system is:
Intel Core i5 3570K
Gigabyte Z77-D3H
Kingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 XMP
MSI Radeon HD 7850 Twin Frozr III 860MHZ 2GB 4.8GHZ GDDR5
OCZ Vertex 3 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 6Gbps SandForce SF-2281 Solid State Disk
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64BIT
Corsair TX650 V2 650W
After installing my new graphics card and downloading the driver from the disk that came with it I rebooted my PC and when I got to the windows log in screen the screen was covered with small black square boxes running diagonally. I am unable to get rid of them without disabling my card. I also tried the amd drivers from the website. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks

Hi thanks again for the response.
Testing this card in another system isnt really a option for me but I tested my old graphic card in the same pci 16x slot on my Gigabyte z77d3h and it worked fine. The card seems to be the problem.
I have also eliminated the possibility of a monitor or cable problem by using the hdmi port on the card instead of the dvi and running it through my 720hd TV. The same black box checkered problem persisted.

Thin black line across screen

My 5th generation Ipod classic has, in the last year, developed a think black line across the center of the screen that is always there. Is this a "dead pixel" area that has developed? Is there any way to repair this that isn't costly?

This is a fairly common problem and I believe the only solution is to replace the screen or simply live with it. My daughter's old ipod does the same thing. You will notice that the lines only show up when the backlight it on, right?

Macbook Pro Black boxes across screen then crashes

I have a Macbook Pro that I got 2 months ago. A couple days ago it froze and had black boxes all across the screen, then it crashed. Today when I started it up after I logged in while it was loading the black boxes popped up again, then it crashed. And when I tried to restart it it just beeped. The battery was around 50% so it wasn't dead. Its been fully updated and I haven't made any changes to it. Please help if there's anything I can do without taking it in

Black line across screen after sleep button pressed

Hi,
When i press the sleep button, i have these black lines appearing across the screen of my ipod which fade away almost immediately. This only happens when i press the sleep button.
Does anyone know if this is a software or hardware issue and can it be fixed?
thanks

Okay, I've updated firmware.
Can you tell me, does this mean my iMac was one of
the first off the production line and could have all
the usual Apple early problems...?
I think I should still take it back to shop and
change it for one of their new stock models in about
3 weeks time when they take delivery of latest stock,
what do you think?
I'm only suspicious as I bought a first generation
iMac G5 and had fan noise and heat problems galour. I
don't want a repeat with an early Intel iMac.
From what I see other posters saying who have just received new ones directly by special order, they are having to do the firmware updates as well, so there is no way to tell how new yours is or isn't. If these resets do not solve the black screen problem now, I think you'll have to take it back anyway. Unless someone else can give you another idea.
edit-
I understand what you're saying about the first models of anything, but I've looked at this as actually being the best of the G5 revisions combined with better, cooler running internal components. If yours is as quiet as mine, and if you resolve the black screen issue, my opinion is that it's not worth giving it up. I've been using an iMac Intel that was returned to Apple, I don't know why and don't really care because it works perfectly for me and cost less.

2 Vertical Black Bars Across Screen...

Anyone know about or experienced vertical black bars (2) across the monitor after returning from sleep or standby mode?
I'm just worried my computer will crap out on me when it's most inconvenient so I'm trying to guage what computer problems/elderly computer symptoms I'll be dealing with in it's decline. It's only from 2009, but it's heavily used and has lots of graphic design and media software on it.
Note: The SD card recently stopped working, and the Genius bar determined it was a mechanical failure. Also, the CD burn hasn't been working for a while.
Using a Macbook pro os x, leopard, purchased 2009.

It only happens for a split second, and before/while the computer is waking up so when I try to take a screen shot, it doesn't work because it's not fully on yet. However, I will take a pic with some other device so I do have a picture of it. And I FOR SURE have all my data backed up plus on a flash.
Thanks for the advice.

Black line across screen

I recently noticed on my blackberry 9360 that there is a black line on the screen that keeps getting bigger. I haven't dropped my phone and there hasn't been any water damage. What causes the line? Is the screen so fragile that cleaning it can break it?

That's the problem. An issue like that is usually considered physical damage and they domy cover it. Its is shame but its the way it goes. If you're so inclined you might be able to replace it yourself if you're good at that type of thing. Parts are available online.

Brand New iPad 3 has a jiggly screen and black boxes across the screen in different apps

My mother purchased a brand new iPad 3 about 1 week ago. The screen has begun to shake while she is in the apps. (This is not the shaking that icons do on when you hold an app down so you can rearrange.) When this happens the screen will go blank when her hand is near it and reappear when she moves it away. Also, in some apps, I have experienced this in the App Store and Facebook, black boxes cover the screen so that you cannot see what is behind them.
We have tried shutting it down completely, but that doesn't seem to be a fix.
I have been searching for others with this problem and haven't found any. Help would be appreciated. Given the sporadic nature (but often enough to be a bother), I'm hesitant to go to the Genius Bar for fear it wouldn't do it then.

I've had the same problem with Big Black squares covering the screen. And a few times the screen has split vertical in the middle and pushed everything in the on half a little down, making it very difficult to read text as the lines was cut in half.
I first experienced it in Mail, and then in Safari. I noticed that it is only covering content, not the App bar and When I scrolled down, the boxes were staying On the spot On the page. I figure it must be a software problem as it moves alting with the rest of the content, so I tried uenig Chrome instead, but yesterday the same ting happened.
I have tryed to take a screen dump, but it gets completely black
Its not warm When the problem occours.
Anyone with a solution?

Is there any way I can get the pictures on my iPhone 5c to be the whole screen instead of with a black band across the top and bottom?

My new phone only let's me take pictures with a black band across the top and bottom instead of the whole screen, does anyone know how to change this?

Image shares screen with a black square

Recently, whenever I start to edit a screenshot, the following happens -
1. I take a screen shot. I am using a PC with Windows 7 operating system. I am using Photoshop Elements v. 12.1.
2. I go to "New" in file and "Image from Clipboard"
3. The image is now displayed with a black square at the right. Please note - this is a recent problem. I strongly suspect I selected a button that caused this, but I have no idea what button. I would love to know if other people have encountered this problem and, if so, how did you fix it?

Hi,
Do you have two monitors with the screen extended on to the second monitor?
How are you capturing the screen?
If you only want to capture the active window, then try using Alt + PrtScn
Since you are using Windows 7, you could use the Snipping Tool. That enables you to select part of the screen and copy it to the clipboard.

Blank screen with a black square and question mark went start up

Hi,
When I try to start up my Macbook pro it will only go to a grey screen with a black square with a question mark inside. Please please help!!!!

Using the disk utility (on first aid tab, which it defaults to) will not erase anything.
Of course if the issue is as I suspect, it's a moot point.
I suspect your Hard Drive is not being recognized. If it is not, then neither disk utility nor the installer will be able to even read the hard drive to let you do anything to it.
Have your backups? You're looking at a replacement hard drive most likely.
Some things to try:
Reset the SMC
--disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery
--hold in the power button for 10 seconds
--reseat the battery and reconnect the power adapter
Reset the PRAM
--press and release the power button
--immediately after releasing the power button, hold down appleoption+PR and keep them held down until you hear the start up chime twice (I like to do it until it dings a third time.)
--release the keys after the chimes
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it is time to back up your data if you have not already done so.
If you have another mac, you may be able to retrieve the data yourself using firewire target disk mode:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
Now if the host computer does not recognize the target computer, you may be looking at paying an authorized service provider or apple store to retrieve the data for you.
Of course you can send in the computer without doing any data retrieval or backups, but keep in mind the repair center it gets shipped do does not do ANY backup or data transfer. They will replace the hard drive and make sure the new one works, but the new one will be empty.

I have a new l7 macbook pro running snow leopard. When I try to boot into windows7 32bit, I get either a blue, black, or flickering screen. Then I have to physically shut down and try again. At that point it will load correctly. Any help?

I have a new l7 Macbook Pro running snow leopard. When I tried to to install windows 7 32 bit on bootcamp, I kept getting a flicking black and blue screen when it tried to install. (Tried several times). I finally downloaded the bootcamp windows support to a flash. I inserted that and finally got it installed. Now when I try to boot into windows I get either a solid black (sometimes blue) or flickering screen and windows will not start up. If I then physically shut down the mac and restart, it will finally boot into windows where it tells me that windows was shut down unexpectently and once I click start windows normally, it will boot up. That will generally let me boot into windows for the remaining of the day. The next day, the same thing happens again. I have tried reinstalling several times, and the same thing keeps happening. It is not my windows disk because it installs flawlessly on the mid 2008 macbook pro. Anyone know how to fix this?

Black Square Image on Screen

There is an image of a black square with an up arrow on the lower right corner of my screen. Does anyone know what that is? Sometimes it has a line though it. Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ruggs,
Can you tell us a bit more? What model system do you have? What OS were you running?
When did this first happen? I.e. after any updates, etc?
If you go into the BIOS, does it see the hard disk listed?

I have a black band across my screen is it broken

I have got a black band across my screen on my I pad don't know how this has come is it an error or something, or is it broken.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

I just updated the ios 7 on my ipad and now i have this black square in the middle of the screen and i cant use my ipad anymore

Try to reset the device:

1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Black Square on Boot Screen after last update

Hi everybody, I made the last security update of OSX on May 25th, (osx 10.9.3), and iTunes 11.2.2 on June 10th.
I do not use to reboot so much the computer, but I do that every 10 or 20 days. After one of those updates, I got these screen while booting up the computer:
As you can see, there is a black square, with the cursor over it. I can move the cursor and the computer seems to start without problems (actually faster) but showing that square. The other difference is also that now I cannot see the usual spinner under the apple logo.
I do not have any kind of boot camp or other OS installed. I have only changed the HD for an SSD one, but this was at november of last year, and everything has worked without problems until this date.
If anybody can give an idea on how to solve it, or if I am the only one who is havving this issue, please, post it here.
Thank you very much
