I do not have a touch screen on my PC. I have upgraded from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 10.
After upgrading my monitor screen seems to be stretched horizontally such that a circle now appears as an ellipse.
How to return screen to normal....
I just upgraded to Windows 10 and the entire screen appears to be stretched horizontally, i.e. both texte and pictures are stretched in the horizontal direction. I tried every screen resolution and the same problem exists for each. I have a 64 bit machine.
View 2 RepliesI am running Windows 10 Home 64-bit. I have an Intel HD Graphics card and a NVIDIA GeForce GT 735M. I have had an issue for a couple of months when viewing videos or footage from my built-in camera. Half of the screen appears fine, but the other half is filled with horizontal blurring bars. This happens with a lot of videos, but some appear okay. The attached image is an example from today on YouTube.
View 4 RepliesSo, I upgraded from Windows 7 up to Windows 10 yesterday and immediately saw that the whole display had stretched on the homescreen, internet, everything. The main issue I am having is that some webpages, YouTube and gamebattles for example are super stretched. This is the case for Google Chrome and on Internet Explorer are both the same.
As for the whole display, all I had to do was change the display size to 100% and it seemed to be alright. However, as for YouTube no matter how much I zoom in or zoom out the video size is super stretched. Gamebattles, on the other hand, I can simply zoom out of and it seems a bit small...I am putting this in the Windows 10 section of the forum as before I did the upgrade all of the web pages were fitting well on my screen.
I've had a problem with windows 10 and my acer PC with an AMD chipset. I constantly have black horizontal lines flickering across my screen. It is worse when running games or Chrome.
I've had this problem before in Ubuntu when I tried using proprietary drivers instead of the default open source ones.
I didn't have this problem before I upgraded from windows 7 sp1.
It doesn't stop me using the PC but is rather annoying ^^.
I would attach a screenshot but I can't seem to get a line in a screenshot
PC: Acer aspire 7750g with internal SSD and HDD
Graphics hardware: AMD Radeon 6600M and 6700M graphics chipset.
Driver version: 15.20-150715a-184226E driver with CCC version 2015.0715.2138.37093
It happens everytime I try to upgrade windows 10, I have tried loads of different methods but none seem to work.
The C:$Windows.~BTSourcesPanthersetuperr.log is as follows:

I successfully upgraded 2 computers, but have problem with my notebook HP ProBook 4320s.
When upgrading reach 75% (100% installing drivers), black screen appears and I have to turn it off and on, then it restores to previous win7.
I upgraded all drivers and BIOS with no effect.
So I'm upgrading from windows 8.1 to 10 on my HP laptop. And I'm on the "upgrading windows" screen but its now stuck on 92% and has been like that for 1 hour or more. How to fix this?
View 1 RepliesI tried upgrading my windows 7, but failed 5 times.
step 1 on copying files are 100%
step 2 installing features n updates are 100%
step 3 FAILED, it stuck on black screen and freeze, nothing i can do besides force restart and its restored to my windows 7 back.
It's always stuck at 75% step 2 and when go to step 3 is freeze ( 5 times in row, I'm thinking give up or buy new laptop with windows 10)... I'm currently downloading ISO file to blank DVD hopefully it's works....
So like a lot of you, I wanted to upgrade my laptop to Windows 10. But when the laptop was in the middle of installing Windows 10 and had restarted a few times, as it does during the installation, it suddenly went black screen with NO cursor or anything. It has been like this for 2 days now, and I don't know what to do.
I can clearly see that the laptop is still on and "working", so it has not just shut down. I'm afraid to force the laptop to turn off, because it's in the middle of a system upgrade. So I'm wondering if there are any alternative solutions or is my only option to force the laptop to shut down and then restart it and hope for the best?
I have a dell insperation and after having upgraded to windows 10, I came across a few issues. The update when well and windows 10 is working on my laptop, however, I have an issue where I am presented with a black screen when i start my computer. I do see a dell screen and a windows boot screen before it goes black so i know the issue is not a hardware issue, however after the windows boot screen passes (the one with the blueish window icon) the screen goes to black, but it is still on (meaning the monitor is still turned on just not displaying anything). The reason i know that windows installed fine is that external monitors do work, just not my laptop monitor. I have already reinstalled windows 10 and have made sure all my drivers are up to date. Windows 10 is just not recognizing my laptops screen as a usable monitor.
View 9 RepliesAfter upgrading my Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro I have also been plagued with the black screen of death. After the BIOS screen it goes black and I do not even get a mouse cursor and I've also let it run for about 30 minutes just in case and nothing. I've tried a lot of the fixes that are being posted online:
-Updated the display adapter driver
-Subsequently uninstalled the display adapter driver
-Disabled fast startup
-Pulled out the battery
-Enabled F8 at startup
-Tried using an installation media DVD I made and that also gets stuck loading but with the blue Windows Logo.
Here is the kicker. I have a bootable USB that has Ultimate Boot CD on it with mini Windows XP. When I boot into mini Windows XP and click shutdown and select restart, Windows 10 then boots normally and will repeatedly boot normally as long as I don't eject that USB. Once I eject that USB I lose everything and I can't even get into Safe Mode. So I've gone back in to see what kind of display driver the mini Windows XP has but have had no luck in finding it. I did call Windows and they said my laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad E555) is compatible with Windows 10. Beyond that they were not useful at all.
I recently upgraded my laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 10 64 bit and shortly after it was completed, everything was working fine until the screen suddenly went black. The computer was still running but I could not see anything on the screen to restart the computer so I closed the laptop so that it would shut off to sleep. Coincidentally a power outage happend lasting for about an hr after. When I am finally able to boot up the computer, it show the ASUS splash screen and the windows logo with the loading spin cycle but then shows a black screen after. My guess is that the OS may have been corrupted or something so that I plan on backing up my hard drive before going to a tech shop. I'm not sure what the issue is but it seems like I may have to reinstall the operating system. i have an ASUS N61J. I can't boot into bios or safe mode and can't get passed the black screen to log into my user account.
View 1 RepliesIt says "downloading windows 10"and i get the icon scrolling but then it just takes me to the windows update screen that shows me my current updates are up to date. I've tried this over a dozen times now, even going as far as disabling my windows firewall and ms essentials....still nothing. I've installed the updates that were optional as well as the required ones but it still will not launch. Downloaded the windows 10 update.exe from microsoft directly and it does the same thing as the one in the taskbar. What else should I do? Maybe it's a sign I just keep 7 (ultimate btw) for a much longer time.
View 1 RepliesI recently updated from windows 7 to windows 10 and there is one problem. The side of the monitor will have black bars if the resolution is bellow 1920x1080 on desktop and games. I tried to reinstall the driver and it didnt work. My driver is also the lastest too.
My specs:
Intel HD graphics family
Intel Pentium g620 2.60ghz
Windows 10. I'm at the "Upgrading Windows" screen and it's been stuck at 25% (copying files 84%) for over an hour. Is this normal?

View 1 RepliesI'm having some hard times with my pc after installing windows 10...I used to have windows 8.1 and everything was fine. Since I downloaded 10:
-it's no more possible for me to restart my pc: it stops during the process.
-programs behave weirdly: adobe is going mad, it's no more possible to close skype when I don't need it, and other minor issues.
Now, I tried to go back to Windows8.1, I tried to reset the pc, BUT OF COURSE I CAN'T BECAUSE THE RESTART OPTION DOESN'T WORK!!!
Since upgrading to windows 10 I cannot scroll
View 1 RepliesQuite simply after updating to Windows 10 I've have had no sound on my computer for months now and don't know what to do. I've updated drivers like 12 times and I still don't get any sound and it's annoying having to put headphones in all the time. I have an Alienware and the crappy part is that I'd only had it a couple weeks before it happened. It happend right after the update so I'm guessing it has to do with something on the OS.
View 2 RepliesI have a windows 7pro system that I have used for about 3 years. A fairly substantial mix of software installed over time has predictably slowed down performance enough that a clean OS install is in order. I also have a SSD I would like to install as the primary C drive as well as the update to windows 10.
There are two ways to go about this, and am not sure which is the most reliable or cleanest way.
a) I can install the SSD then reinstall win7, and 3 years worth of OS patches. Wait around until Microsoft notifies me of availability of windows 10, install windows 10 and then install all the application software.
b) I could upgrade to windows 10 get a license key(?). Then install the SSD, next reinstall windows 10 and finally all the application software.
like I said - NO audio
View 1 RepliesI am going to switch out most of the components besides RAM, HDD, and CD-ROM. I have been informed that an OEM version of Windows is tied to the motherboard, but I need to switch out the motherboard. I understand that I need to purchase a retail version of Windows 10.
My question is how do I replace the old OS (Windows 8 upgraded to Windows 10) with a retail version? I am going to be keeping the HDD, so how exactly would I go about replacing the current OS on my HDD?

So I'm currently running Windows 7 Home Premium on my desktop and have two other hard drives for storage. The SSD is only 32GBs (Before you say, "Well 32GB's is way to small for an SSD" I know. But it works and I still have 3-4GBs free.) and I'm going to make an attempt to upgrade it this summer to a Samsung 840 EVO but I may be delayed because I'll be on vacation most of the summer. So my question is, can I fit Windows 10 on it because you need at least 20GBs to upgrade. But is that overwriting Win7? Do I need to install Windows 10 on my storage drive then migrate it to the SSD?
