Vista - Test mode????

eskimo · 07-07-2008

Hello,

I recently tried to install hmonitor (from www.hmonitor.com)on my vista home premium x64 and it came up with something about driver signing then it asked to reboot so i did. When the computer booted back up it had TEST MODE in all four corners of the screen and it is really annoying.
I removed hmonitor and the TEST MODE is still there.

Anyone have any idea how to remove this?

I'm sure this can be fixed without the need for microsoft.
