pc configuration

2 gb ram

2.93 ghz core2 duo cpu

256 mb graphics card

installed k-lite mega codec pack

I am already using windows 7 64 bit without any problem,but videos in windows 8 does not run smoothly.
[Windows 8 General] BOOTMGR:
Are you using intel on board graphic card?

It is possible that you dont have installed drivers properly.

And switch to VLC Player bcoz K-Lite codec pack and other Codec packs uses more Resources.Vlc is best.I'm using it And i'm not facing Any problem.
[Windows 8 General] m0nkf1sh:
I have the same issue, a chug every 30seconds or so in all players, wmp, mpc & vlc, klite installed.

I assume its a video driver issue but ive tryed several now.

Intel i5

4gig ddr3

nvidia 420m (laptop)

windows Dev Pre 64bit

Nvidia 285.62 whql driver

Nvidia 290.53 beta driver

And yes I know its an alpha version and i shouldn't expect things to work properly but if anyone else has this problem or knows a solution let us know.

Bring on the beta :)

*edit

also happens with flash video (iplayer / youtube)

I have also tryed a different soundcard driver but with no luck.
[Windows 8 General] Horvaticus:
I had the same issue on my CR-48. I fixed it by activating projector mode and popping in an external monitor.
[Windows 8 General] okami:
i only experience a 5-10 second stall about every 45-50 minutes.

everything freezes but audio, then it all catches up and goes fine.

and only with win 8. win 7 was fine.
[Windows 8 General] m0nkf1sh:
just tryed NVidia 280.26 whql drivers and got the same result :(

and yes all was fine under windows 7

ah well lm sure something will sort it.

*Edit

Ok just tryed an external monitor but the same problem persists. Doesnt matter if the external display is the only display or if its connected via "extended" mode.

Perhaps it has something to do with the metro ui. Ill try disabling it and see if that has something to do with it, ill also try a differant theme, maybe its like the overlay usage by Microsoft in windows 7. Ill post the results when im done.

*Edit 2

disabling metro ui- No change

changing theme (Non Aero)- No change

out of ideas, I guess in have to wait for Microsoft or Nvidea to catch up. Gah! I hate waiting :E
[Windows 8 General] m0nkf1sh:
a small update :-

Turned out that my video problem and the occasional BSOD were all being caused by my WIFI drivers causing a "DPC-Watchdog Violation". As soon as I disabled it, video playback was smooth and no more random BSODs. Shall remain on a wired connection until Beta Release :E

My Wifi adapter is a Broadcom 802.11n.

Hope that helps some of you. :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
I have seen various Galaxy S2's in and around my area. I've noticed that the motherboard comes in 2 different colors, one Blue, and the other, Forest Green.

interestingly, i've observed that the green color tends to heat up pretty quickly compared to the blue. I was wondering if there would be any differences between the two boards. When the Galaxy S2 first arrived to market, the color was blue when I checked at a retailer. A couple months later, when inquiring the price, one of the store employees opened the back cover and showed me the color. It was Forest Green. After playing around a bit with the phone, the phone became considerably hot, something that was not encountered with the earlier phone I saw in May. I'm doubting the color has anything to do with hardware revisions, but this sparked some curiosity.

Question: Is your motherboard "Blue" or "Green" ?

How to locate color-

- remove back cover

- remove SIM

- color is there

Interesting responses, keep this thread going. I've seen one with green and phone get very hot on normal use. I've had no problems with my phone, other than that the fact that there is some yellow color on bottom left, looks like a software bug.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SAlmighty:
Based on the responses, the heating may have to do with the way things are soldered onto the board. i don't know about differences, but green used to be used on prototype devices, and blue was official. really weird. doubt the colors have anything to do with revision.

when have you all purchased your devices?

Hi Guys, I m facing an issue with the 3G network on my WP7. The 3G signal is low in my area and the phone automatically changes to the Edge/GPRS network from 3G. Is there a way to keep it locked to the 3G network so that it does not changes to the Edge/Gprs network?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kr3i0s:
Hey guys found the solution to lock the wp7 to 3G/HSPA only network.

1. Press ##3282# and it will open the field test screen.

2. Select settings at the bottom of the screen.

3. Select 3G Network only option.

The phone will be locked to 3G networks only even if the signal is very low.

Tested on HTC 7 Pro. Working like a charm.

Hope it helps.:)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crispy1805:
Hi guys,

So I had this problem before, but the Captivate magically fixed itself. This time... not so much. Or not yet anyway.

Upon boot I get a "No network" symbol. Sometimes it shows the bars on boot, but quickly reverts to the no network status. I just flashed the newest version of Cognition with the accompanying kernal. I have bounced around through various roms and kernals all night, but the problem seems to carry over (even after wiping the data/cache/return to blah blah).

Any ideas?

[Acer Iconia A500] yassero:
Why don't I have 'move to SD' in my application settings ? hence doing a backup is useless & the only use for my SD is to copy files to it using any file explorer
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
Because this is not a phone. Tablets have plenty of internal storage (16 or 32gigs) and they place their data there because it's faster, less prone to corruption and you can't remove it so there is no need for APP2SD and similar functions. I suspect that they'll remove the feature from ICS as well.

SD card is useful only for music and similar stuff but I like it because recovery doesn't wipe it so it's perfect if you don't switch music and other stuff on a daily basis.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Kitten Mittens:
I've been window shopping for a tablet for a while now and when they announced this I was blown away, I can't wait to get one. Ultra thin and light, and Super AMOLED Plus at 1280 x 800 (196 ppi!!!). At first I wasn't sure what to think about the 7.7 inch size because I was originally thinking about getting a 10.1 inch tablet, but the portability of such a light tablet is very intriguing and the more I think about it it sounds like a good size. This is the largest OLED display you can get at an affordable price and it's pretty high resolution for 7.7 inches, I can imagine myself watching movies on this in bed instead of turning on the TV. I'm really hoping they can keep the price low, around $400-450 would be perfect for the 16GB Wi-Fi model.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] CASz:
I was all over getting this then I looked at a 10.1, it is the tab size I'm looking for. With the slightly narrower profile I can type in portrait mode and it's perfect for reading books and magazines. Most stuff I have is on Google so I don't need a lot of local space.

So no, I won't be getting a 7.7 My P1000 goes to a new home today :(

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 4dthinker:
Not sure if I'll pick one up. Depends on the price. Frankly was expecting the 8.9 to be lower in price than it is. Seems like they should be priced porportional to the size of their screens.

10.1 at $499 = $49.41/inch.

The 8.9 should have been 49.41 x 8.9 or $439.71 ($439)

The 7.7 should be 49.41 x 7.7 or $380.43 ($379)

All 16gb Tegra 2 models with 1gb ram.

The Acer A100 7" tab is $329. A bargain at $47/inch.

Just a pricing theory.

I had a 10.1, but returned it to the store after experiencing the Newton's Rings issue, so I am now thinking about either a Exynos Powered SGT 7.7 or a Tegra 3 powered Transformer 2.

One question I have is, does the 7.7 only come in 3G / LTE variants? If I was getting one, I would want Wi-Fi only?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jhughesy:
Thats good news. Will they stop displaying phone apps in the marketplace if you have a tablet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Step666:
Maybe if they were all the same ppi and the resolution dropped along with the size, there might be some logic to that but in the real world, no.

Especially not when the 7.7 has a S-AMOLED+ panel as opposed to PLS LCD in the 8.9 and 10.1.

Also, the 7.7 isn't Tegra2.

It's running a 1.4GHz Exynos SoC, a far better chip than the larger Tabs.

If anything, the 7.7 should be more expensive.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Stardate Tab 10.1:
From what I understand, and could be wrong here, but I believe ICS is supposed to scale up all phone apps so they display on tablets. So every app in the market will be available (eventually) for tablets.

which tablet do you have in.mind as an upgrade for this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhuewes:
Do you mind to share why you are thinking of upgrading or replacing?

I am a very satisfied user of the GT10.1 - there is no need to rush for upgrades or replacement now.

Maybe next year with ICS and Quad-Core CPU's there will be some reason to upgrade.

I would recommend to you to sit down and enjoy your GT10.1 until a significantly better and more powerful tablet becomes available.

There is no better option today - simple as that!

If you don't like some minor lags and bugs present on Honeycomb, you can try the iPad2. I tried and gave up - I really don't adapt to Apple's limited iOS, I like the freedom to customize and play with the OS - and only Android can give me that.

And looking on other Android tablets, I went for the GT10.1 because of its weight and thickness - which was important to me, because my primary use is for ebook handheld reading.

My sincere advice - enjoy your tablet and wait for mid-2012 - there will be plenty of new options by then!
