Q. I just installed an Nvidia Geforce Graphics card and there’s a problem..each time i right click on a video file or the Nvidia control panel tray icon my monitor switched off and then on for about a sec. I tried googling the problem but found no answers and then i came across this Q & A thing at the bottom of the page so I thought i’ll see what this site’s got? Any help?

A. Apparently the monitor ‘blink’ is caused because each time you right-click it searches for connected TV’s. The only way to remove this would be to remove the ‘play on my:TV’ context menu entry so it wouldn’t search for TV’s when you right-click a video file. You can’t really remove the ‘blink’ proble when you right-click the control panel icon though.

How to remove the Context menu entry:

-Open start>run>’regedit’

-Search for ‘playonmy’

-Delete the keys found.
