Screen goes Pink/Redish under Windows XP

Hello All,
I am currently running 10.5 on my wifes Macbook 13". My wife using XP on the macbook for her real estate. However when it gets hot the screen turns pink in color and redish. I have a fan blowing air in it now via USB. However if i boot to the Mac side right away it stays like that. However if i am running it on the Mac side the whole time the screen never does that? Any Ideas.

Hi
I have connected the dynadock to my Vista notebook and to an external LCD display.
Everything seems to be ok. No flickering!!!
I dont know why your external monitor flickers but maybe you should try to change the screen resolution and the screen refresh rate
Try this

  • Why does my screen going pink?

    screen goes pink every now & again. Need to shut down for 5 minutes then all is fine.

    Bring your phone in to Apple for evaluation. 

  • Screen goes pink ....

    Screen goes pink with static lines and MBP freezes up.  Typically happens when opening iPhoto. Going on for 2 months now, becoming unusable.  Is this a hardware or software fault?

    It would be hardware.  Do you see the problem anywhere else?
    Try changing graphic processors to isolate the issue: http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus
    You can run the Apple Hardware Test, but I do not see this a definitive answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
    I would take it to an Apple Retail Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider  (AASP) for evaluation, or call your nearest Apple Contact Center. Visit the Genius Bar at the Apple Retail Store,  make a reservation.

  • My MBP's screen goes pink

    When I plugged the charger and turn the power on, my mid 2009 MBP's screen goes pink completely.
    I thought it caused by software problems so I restart, but the screen is still pink.
    What should I do now?

    It may be that the MBP overheated and that the internal shut down was engaged.  Run an Apple Hardware Test and see if it develops any issues:

    Ciao.
    The test may have to be started by pressing the OPTION D keys.

  • [SOLVED][KDE, intel] Screen goes gray when switching windows

    Hello,
    on my EEE netbook, since the xorg update, I guess --noticed today, as I use it for school only --, the screen goes gray after I switch windows via alt+tab. This does not happen every time, but eventually it occures. In that case the whole screen has color of not yet painted window, and the DE is seemingly not responding to anything, I can still move my mose though and cursor moves too. Switching to text console works, but xserver restart is needed to get things back to normal.
    I have been using graphics system raster, but change to default didn't solved the issue. The same goes for -lcd font filters. System is up-to-date and uses some SELinux packages from the AUR if that matters, but it should not, as they are not graphics nor DE related.
    Would you have any sugestions? I should not be doing any potentially risky operations till thursday, as I need the computer for school and don't have any other available.
    Thank you.
    Will happily provide additional information, if you specify it.
    EDIT: The situation is simmilar as when I run a program, first a fullscreen window is painted gray, and when everything is loaded its content is painted. This lasts few second in case of big applications like Kontact. In the case of mentioned bug it is like the content of window never painted.
    EDIT: So I recompiled bespin-svn, as I remembered, that this package likes to cause trobles, when it is older, and I wanted to mark this solved, as it behaved during the day, but just few minutes ago, the problem happend again.
    EDIT: I don't understand it. On monday it happed several times during day. On tuesday it happend once. Since wednesday it didn't happend. Sould I start to beleave in ghosts?

    Ok, happend again several times today. Didn't happen at any other PC, but I do not have other Intel based, in case it is graphics related.
    As for log (not like I have an idea what to look for) I have error loading fbdev module and some touchpad errors in xorg.log (not imediatelly after the problem), and some Networkmanager warnings.
    Damn. Now I failed three times in a row to switch from konsole to rekonq in order to copy those logs. Anyway this is tail -n 50 everything.log (right now X11 screen is just gray and mouse cursor). SELinux can be ignored as it is set permissive.

  • The screen goes black after restarting Windows

    I downloaded the Support Software to a FAT-32 flash drive and partitioned the main hard drive inside my Late 2009 Macbook running Lion. The Windows starter worked fine and I installed Windows 7 Professional. The installation worked just fine and I was taken to a Windows desktop. I insterted the flash drive and ran the installer using the .exe. Everything looked just fine, I even watched as the support for my graphics chip was installed. I restarted the computer to make sure everything went all right and when I opened Windows from the boot menu, the screen goes blank. There is a little glow, but otherwise it's black.
    I can't repair the Support Software because the OS won't boot. I can boot into OS X just fine, and I even tried twice to install Windows with the same result (and completely deleted the Windows partition). The only modified thing about my computer is an upgrade in memory. Any help would be appreciated!

    Yes, it is suggested to keep it plugged in when installing it so It's not supposed to do that.
    If you installed a new set of Ram, or extra, you might try to boot into the Hardware Test DVD and do the Ram check test for awhile and see if something comes up.
    You might also try to reset your SMC which controls your power management before you try installing Windows again.
    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.

  • The whole screen goes pink suddenly with vertical lines.

    Our iMac is 3 years old and lately we've been getting this thing where the screen suddenly goes pink with lines down it and we have to turn the power off to get ris of it. Once it went white. I'm really hoping this is something we can deal with and fix before it becomes fatal. We absolutely cannot afford a new computer right now. Anyone had this happen? Know what it's about? Below are my computers specs.

    i already tried to move or tilt the screen and even press it but still the screen is pink... Yes perhaps I need to bring this again at the service center  Thanks!

  • Screen resolution Compaq 2405x under Windows XP

    I bought a Compaq 2405x monitor and installed the drivers from CD (my system is Windows XP), The preferred resolution is 1920x1200, but the result after installation gives only other values such as 1024x768 or 1600x1200.
    In ControlPanel, Properties of Monitor, Adjustment, Advanced, Monitor the item to hide non-supported modi is gray and I cannot tick it on.
    How to solve this problem to obtain the preferred resolution 1920x1200?

  • I have a iq 804 and tried to upgrade to win 8, but the screen goes black after windows update.

    i have been working with microsoft support for 5 hours everyday for the last 5 days. they could not help, now they ask to wait for hp to come out with new drivers to support win 8.any idea if they are going to add those since my computer is 3 years old

    Here are the specs for your HP TouchSmart IQ804 Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model shipped with Windows Vista 64-bit and was introduced for sale on or about 27-Aug-2008... making it almost 5 years old. Due to its age, HP has no intention of providing specific support or drivers for this model. Please read HP's position below.
    THIS is HP's position on Windows 8 support and any HP computer not originally supplied with Windows 8;
    1) Not all Windows 8 features may be available on all PCs.
    2) Your particular experience with Windows 8 will be determined by the capabilities of your PC.
    3) HP is providing upgrade instructions and drivers will be available for most Windows 7 systems sold after 1st October 2011.
    4) If you want to restore the original operating system after upgrading, you must create HP recovery media before you upgrade.
    5) Please note that if you purchased your system prior to October 1, 2011, HP has not tested these PCs or developed Windows 8 upgrade instructions or drivers for them. Upgrading such systems may be difficult or impossible.
    and
    Important information regarding additional limitations and requirements;
    1) Screen Resolution Requirements
    2) Limitations with DVD playback software
    3) Limitations with Blu-ray playback software
    4) Limitations with TV Tuner software
    5) Secure Boot & other UEFI dependent features
    6) Limitations with touch screen capabilities
    "Windows 7 (also includes Windows Vista) PCs with touch screens will not have full Windows 8 touch capabilities after upgrade. HP PCs with touch input hardware designed for Windows 7 will provide a comparable experience for only two touch point applications after the upgrade to Windows 8. HP Windows PCs with touch input hardware will not support Windows 8 applications that require more than two simultaneous touch points. Additionally, Windows 8 edge swipes may not be available due to the recessed bezel on HP touch systems shipped with Windows 7."
    7) HP TouchSmart Magic Canvas and HP TouchSmart applications are not compatible with Windows 8 and must be uninstalled before upgrading. Note that content created using the TouchSmart applications such as Graphitti will not be available after upgrading.
    With all of that said, you may be able to install Windows 8 and it may work but many of its features may no longer function under Windows 8.

  • Screen goes black constantly, okay with Windows

    My mid-2010 21.5" iMac has been having issues for a while now.  The screen goes black randomly.  This happens anywhere from once a week to once every two seconds for days on end.  I've done plenty of research and seen similar problems but no real solutions.
    Symptoms:
    Screen goes to sleep.  Shine a flashlight on it, can still see stuff, so it's just the backlight out.
    It'll either happen at startup, before the Apple logo, or after using for a while.
    Using a hot corner or keyboard shortcut will temporarily wake it up.
    If watching video, sound still plays even though screen is black.
    Had it in a 60 degree room with A/C blasting on it, no change.
    Tried resetting PRAM, SMU.
    Hardware test was fine, but I can't do this when it's not actually working.
    External monitor works fine.
    Really weird-  this does not happen with Windows XP.  It runs fine.  So maybe a software problem?  BUT, the problem occurs when booting from Install DVD.  So maybe not a software problem.  I was going to wipe and re-install but can't even do that due to it blacking out.
    I've had it in and they replaced the LCD, didn't help.
    I wish it would just permanently stop working so it'd be easier to figure out, as it is, the intermittent nature is driving me nuts.  Can anyone please help?

    I meant SMC, not "SMU".  Oops.
    billkline, thanks for the input, the fact that Windows works has really got me scratching my head.  That's when I went to reinstall OS X but couldn't when it blacked out on the Snow Leopard Install DVD.  Thoroughly confused now.
    Also, starting tonight it now hangs on the gray startup screen for thirty seconds before booting up.  This usually is a one or two seconds before getting the Apple logo. 

  • Sometimes when I open a new tab, I get a blank burgundy screen that covers up the window and sometimes I can get rid of it and sometimes not. At this point, I'm ready to totally get rid of Firefox. what is going on?

    When I click on the plus sign by tabs, a burgundy blank screen appears over my window, blocking the tab groups except for the top portion. I can still see the URL address field and the tabs above but when I click on a tab, it comes up beneath the blank burgundy new screen on my window. I then have to open a new window but I have to start over on the tabs. I can't use the ones behind the burgundy screen. sometime when I click on the home icon the blank screen goes away, sometimes not.

    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit - No splash screen

    I installed my licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended today as part of my install a bunch of software after a reinstall of Windows (due to viruses).  I did a completely fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.  I've used Photoshop CS3 Extended for quite a while now so I know what to expect on startup but it was previously installed under Windows XP Professional (32-bit). Figured I would give Windows 7 a chance this time around.
    Google searches aren't turning up anything.  When I attempt to start the application, I get a window with the title "Adobe Photoshop CS3" (no "Extended" - I seem to recall the title changes later) and the toolbar appears.  However, no splash screen appears and no Product Activation wizard appears - the application simply freezes on an empty frame and a toolbar.  I've tried running Photoshop as Administrator (right-click, "Run As Administrator"), but nothing changed there.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling.  I tried upgrading to CS3 10.0.1.  Nothing works.  The application simply freezes before it gets anywhere.
    I tried calling Adobe Support since this technically falls under installation issues but their phone support systems are down today.  Go figure.
    Edit:  I hooked into Photoshop with the Visual Studio debugger and every single thread is executing some variation of WaitForSingleObject() or WaitForMultipleObjects().  The main thread is "executing" somewhere in AdobeLM_libFNP.dll (at address 09619d81 - if I had debugging symbols for CS3, I could provide a function).  There are nine threads "running" at the point the freeze occurs - but all of them are technically suspended due to the functions they are executing - and one thread is in a suspended state.

    And, according to the Event Viewer, the "Binary" data translates to a zero-terminated Unicode string of "Cross-thread".
    My Visual Studio analysis was far more informative.  All threads are hung inside of WaitForSingleObject() and WaitForMultipleObjects() calls and the DLL in question appears to be FlexNet-related.  I did forget to mention that I also even manually started the FlexNet service in case, for some strange reason, Photoshop was waiting for it to start.  That also did not work.
    (And there is nothing in the Action Center control panel either despite the message saying there might be more information there.)
    Edit:  The timestamp above might be a little odd-looking.  I didn't originally see anything in Event Viewer until I clicked the first button to send an Error Report.  Mostly I just skipped that part of killing a process.

  • Screen goes black when coming out of screen saver. HP Pavilion,p7-1414 desktop, windows 8

     the monitor shows the windows 8 screen with the apps, then the screen saver will come on. Then when I try to bring it out of the screen saver mode the screen goes black and nothing I do will get it to go back to the windows 8 screen. Then the mouse pointer will disappear. So I end up having to shut down the computer using the power button. If I have the screen set up for the old style windows 7 and it goes into the screen saver and I bring it back there's no problem.

    Hello fleamarketlady,
    Your computer goes black when it comes out of sleep mode some times.
    Make sure that you are only using one cable to connect the monitor to the computer.
    Open up command prompt and run the following command SFC /scannow.
    This will scan the system files and correct any errors that it can.
    Here is a link to command prompt.
    When you go to open command prompt, right click and run as administrator.
    If you are still having the problem you can perform a system refresh.
    This will uninstall windows 8 and reinstall it without affecting your personal information.
    Here is a link that will walk you through the steps for a refresh.
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

  • Windows 7 boot camp screen goes black after windows startup screen!!!!!!

    A few days ago when I tried to start my MacBook Pro in windows 7 (enterprise) I encountered a completly black screen after the startup screen.
    1) Choose start in Windows 7 from boot camp menu (holding option after starting up computer)
    2) Windows start up screen would appear and finish
    3) For a very brief second my cursor pointer would appear and login screen would flash onto the screen, then the screen would go black
    BUT
    I CAN boot windows 7 in safe mode
    The computer is still on when screen goes black (fan still running and i can use keyboard commands to shut down the computer)
    I've been searching the Internet for DAYS to no avail
    PLEASE someone help me....... ive already tried the sfc /scannow and dskchk commands in the command prompt window

    Win 7 Enterprise is not supported by Boot Camp, you may or may not get it to work reliably, (I would not bother to try)
    Read this document then pick a supported version of Windows for your Mac.
