    Windows do not show up correctly when clicking on them


    Hi,

    I struggle quite hard trying to explain this issue, so the topic title may be a bit unclear but the problem is that when I have several programs open in the task bar clicking on one of them will not always push it up front on the screen...

    I can have iTunes, Explorer and Chrome open for example with iTunes up front. If I now want to open Explorer clicking on it makes it "active", but it is still behind iTunes...

    In this image I'm working in Explorer when I want to open Notepad++. Clicking Notepad++ do not bring it up front though...

    In this image I'm working in Notepad++ and want to open Chrome but clicking on Chrome do not bring it up. Instead Notepad++ remain in front.

    Notepad++ is for simplicity used in both examples here, but the problem affects all software running.

    How can I fix this?

    :)

  3. My nextbook is not starting up correctly, blackscreen on start up

    Hi Andrew,

    I would suggest you to verify if the default sound device is set correctly. Follow these steps:

    • Windows key + X, click Control Panel, click
      Hardware and Sound, and then click Sound.
    • Playback tab. Make sure the correct default audio device is selected. (For most users, the default audio device is
      Speakers.)
    • Playback tab, select the correct device, click Properties, click the
      Advanced tab, and make sure that Default Format is set to the value that you expect. When finished, click OK.
    • Playback tab, select the playback device, click Configure, and then make sure the configurations are set correctly.
    If the sound settings are set correctly, and your speakers are already set as the default device, go to "Verify that an audio driver is installed" now.

    • Set Default.
    • OK to save your settings.

    Do keep us updated.

    Regards,
