    Print screen fails


    I've always been able to get screens from programs in DosBox by pressing Fn Print Screen but today the screen just went black. I suspect something in the last Windows update is the culprit. It will be a hassle getting a camera out and using Photoshop, so I'm hoping someone can help please.

    :)

  2. Printing to XPS fails on Windows 10

    Hi Dan,



    I can understand the inconvenience caused to you. I would be glad to help you.

    I would suggest you to refer the below steps and check if it helps.


    • Search for Device Manager, or do Win + R and then
      DEVMGMT.MSC.

    • Go to 'Print queues' then uninstall both the PDF and XPS print queues.

    • Search for 'Advanced Printer Setup', or look this option in the Control panel.

    • Select 'The printer that I want isn't listed', in the next window choose 'Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings', select 'Use an existing port:' then in the dropdown select 'FILE: (Print
      to File)'.

    • In the next window, it will appear a list. Select Microsoft then in the second list select 'Microsoft Print to PDF' and next.

    • Select 'Replace the current driver' and then next

    • Give the printer a name (I suggest the original name) then next and it shall reinstall the printer and its driver.

    • Repeat the process but now instead of selecting 'Microsoft Print to PDF' in the list, select the XPS one.

    • Restart and see if it prints now.


    Refer the below article for more information.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    • Choose Turn Windows features on or off.
    • On the next window, find Microsoft Print to PDF and disable it. Click
      OK to save changes.
    • Restart your PC.
    • Repeat the same steps to re-enable Microsoft Print to PDF.
