    Does anyone know how I can get the special background and sound effects back when I switch to game mode.
    Thanks a lot for your help.

    That is part of the program "ModeShift".

    Thanks TANWare,
    Yes I know but "ModeShit" does not let me do that. I can not change the visual effets
    Regards

    Hi,
    Did you notice that ModeShift is missing from SW Update?
    I had to download from the webpage of the notebook.
    Could you tell me what is your version?
    Mine is 1.0.0.12.

    I do not use it, I prefer the normal backgrounds.

    The most recent W7 version is 1.0.0.12 and that is what can be had from SWUpdate. For Windows 8.0 there is version 2.0.0.1 available.
