Title Page Stays On - Video Driver upgrade solved problem

[ddouglass]

Wayne,
Most of the problems with video on laptops these days is that the video card uses shared memory. In other words it is borrowing Ram from the main memory. There is a site that has a lot of good tips on background processes you can turn off that will help free up some more memory. This is the site: http://www.blackviper.com.
How much memory does this laptop have?
And are your other laptops Vista or XP?

Just a thought, have you got a different virus checker on this new computer ?
Try running the same songs with it switched off.

I figured out which disks have a problem, but, have not solved my problem. This is obviously related to a combination of this paricular laptop's settings and the change Star Disc did to remove the STAR and put an A in it's place in the Title (in mid 2006). The problem starts with Country Disk # SD462 & the Pop Disk # SD4607 & every Star Disc since then. This coincides with the Change in their Name on the Title Page.

These songs play fine on every other computer I have (3 of them are on Vista). I tried to reimport SD462 on this computer, but, it told me it was already imported so I didn't go to the trouble fo deleting it, but I did import one song (as if a singer had brought the disc to a show) and it still has the same problem as the version on the laptop.

To refine what the problem actually is; the Title Page stays on for a Looong time & then fades dimmer & dimmer & then the words come up really fast & it ultimately catches up...

The Laptop is a COMPAQ Presario CQ60 Notebook. It has 2GB Ram, a 32 bit processer, which is the AMD Dual-Core QL-62 2.00GZ

I have searched for title page problems & haven't found anything helpful (and have updated the computer with all upgrades available & verified/made all the changes MTU recommends for Vista).

This problems may have happened to others 3 years ago, I am hoping someone can remember it...Wayne

I forgot to list that the it has the NVIDIA GeForce 8200M G video card...Wayne

Have you tried running it with your anti virus software turned off ?

Roy.

[Wayne White]

Yes I have turned off the anti virus

It is amazing that no one else has ran into this problem. This is every Star Disc after they changed their front page by replacing the STAR in their name with an A.

I have several computers & this COMPAQ Is the only one that has this problem. I am guessing that it may be the video card because I have uninstalled everything it doesn't need to run.

Does anyone else have a NVIDIS GeForce 8200M G Video card in a Laptop?

I am about ready to just sell this laptop & start over...Wayne
