Michael Seth-Hunter 102640 Posted July 10, 2008 at 12:31 AM Posted July 10, 2008 at 12:31 AM I have been having a problem with VRC ever since I put it on my laptop with the Intel chipset (965) and Vista. The tempoprary fix I found was to disable the driver, and then turn down hardware accel. So far it has cured all of my visual problems, and now i just need to see if my TXT speed is where it should be. P[Mod - Happy Thoughts] this on to anyone who is having a similar problem. Again, I hope this fix is just temporary, and the VRC programers will get it figured out in the mean time. I have also put a word in to Intel to see if they can offer any [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance. to disable the driiver: right click personalize/personalize/device manager/display adaptors/sub menus item (mine is the intel chipset which my computer uses)/driver/disable. this will change all of your graphics to mode "suck" but VRC will work right (graphics anyways). when you want to reverse this, rune the same steps, just click enable, and all will be normal again. hope this helps all of you having issues with VRC/Vista.

Norman Blackburn Posted December 17, 2008 at 05:18 PM Posted December 17, 2008 at 05:18 PM Rodrigo, There is no solution that doesn't involve disabling the video device. Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Espinoza Posted December 18, 2008 at 10:15 PM Posted December 18, 2008 at 10:15 PM Rodrigo As Norman said there is no solution, is a known bug with integrated video intel chipsets (Notebooks), 965 and x3100, i had a HP DV6000 with the same problem. Now im using a DELL 6400 notebook with ATI Graphics card and homemade PC with NVIDIA Graphics card, no more troubles. Regards Juan Espinoza B.

Ahmed Hasan 958620 Posted January 1, 2009 at 08:23 PM Posted January 1, 2009 at 08:23 PM Michael Thanks for that temporary solution I suffered from this problem for almost 6 month before I managed to downgrade my Acer Aspire 5720 To Windows XP and now it works a treat Actually after many tries with Intel,Microsoft and VRC Developer Ross Clarson the problem was identified to be out of the Conflict between Vista and Intel drivers as the Vista won't allow you to change the rate of hardware acceleration not like XP which will allow you to anyhow thanks for the temp. solution again and maybe if I decided to get back to Vista oneday which won't be near I will use it Ahmed H[Mod - Happy Thoughts]an Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dipasquale 1134951 Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:21 PM Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:21 PM Hey I tried the fix mentioned two posts up... where I disabled the driver, booted up VRC (and it has full, proper display) and then enabled the driver again after and VRC still functions with full displays. Hope this helps everyone else. Thanks for the advice, Boo Vista.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wycliffe Barrett Posted June 5, 2010 at 07:51 AM Posted June 5, 2010 at 07:51 AM no problems at all with my laptop and windows 7. i am a little amused to hear people disabling video drivers when all you have to do and thisis known isue, not with VRC but most laptops and that is turn down the hardware acceleration. this issue was first identified with dell laptops where the hardware acceleration was always set to maximum by default.
