Applications open as black windows with Teamviewer


Question

I am running Team Viewer 9 on both the Client and the Host. The Host computer is Windows 8.1 and the Client is Windows 7 Pro.

 

When i open applications i just get a Black windows with borders. This happens with numerous applications but not all of them (i think it might be due to how each app is drawn) either way the two biggest ones that bother me are Visual Studios 2013 and Chrome. However the Battle.net launcher will load without issues.

 

I have attached a screen capture from TeamViewer of Visual Studios you can see the purple border however, you are unable to see the content of the screen. Also even though I have my wallpaper hidden for performance reasons, if i chose to show the wallpaper the content of the app is black not transparent to the wallpaper.

 

Any Ideas?

Try unticking the option to remove the desktop wallpaper & try disabling hardware acceleration (if possible).

 

This is where I imagine the issue is stemming from since it is only some apps: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19089652/teamviewer-and-fullscreen-directx-app 

 

EDIT: ah, it looks like you already did the former and it didn't work.

 

EDIT2: Make sure you don't have any mirror devices from other software showing up in your device manager under Display Adaptors.

I am starting to think its not an Intel 3000 Chipset then. I honestly cannot find anywhere that tells me exactly what it is. everywhere just tells me that its Intel HD Graphics.

Here is a GPU-Z Screen capture.

 

This is for the Client computer. (my work computer)

Indeed its not Sandy Bridge IGPU, its one generation before processor.

Try these two Intel latest drivers:

Win 7 64bit - https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22521〈=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20(64-bit)*&DownloadType=Drivers

Win 7 32bit - https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22519〈=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20(32-bit)*&DownloadType=Drivers

 

Try this as well:

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
