One and a half years later (but still within the 2 years warranty) when I open some programs sometimes bits of the menus/windows stay on after I close them. Ex: I have the antivirus Avast (excellent and free), when I right click its icon in the taskbar, open the menu and choose an item and execute it that item will stay on until i reboot. This happens with lots of other programs so that sometimes I have to reboot or I will have a mess in the display ( bits of several programs all meshed).<BR /><BR />Is this a sign that the graphics card is out of order? Does anyone has an idea how this can be resolved? Thank you<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 07 Jul 2005 04:50:25 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38867#M107249 franciscocruz 2005-07-07T04:50:25Z Re: in my pcg-z1rsp bits of program windows stay on after I close them https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38868#M107250 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Seems like windows problem, I would reinstall the system.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 07 Jul 2005 10:24:31 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38868#M107250 GattoMatto 2005-07-07T10:24:31Z Re: in my pcg-z1rsp bits of program windows stay on after I close them https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38870#M107251 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Definately recover the unit<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 07 Jul 2005 15:37:50 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38870#M107251 kee-lo_ 2005-07-07T15:37:50Z Re: in my pcg-z1rsp bits of program windows stay on after I close them https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38872#M107252 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you for that. If I change the display resolution, however, the screen clears and the image will be good: I will have the programs logos neatly displayed over my wall paper and no part of a program left unclosed. Is this not a sign that the graphics card (the achilles heels of this otherwise excellent computer) is malfunctionning?<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 09 Jul 2005 19:22:15 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38872#M107252 franciscocruz 2005-07-09T19:22:15Z Re: in my pcg-z1rsp bits of program windows stay on after I close them https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38873#M107253 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Could well be, but it can be due to a slow or malfunctioning hard disk.<BR /><BR />Something is slowing the system down<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 10 Jul 2005 21:12:21 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/pcs-accessories/in-my-pcg-z1rsp-bits-of-program-windows-stay-on-after-i-close/m-p/38873#M107253 kee-lo_ 2005-07-10T21:12:21Z
