View 0 Replies View RelatedThe autostart function is not working properly. When introduced a CD Rom into the drive, it has all the autostart functions for movies, pics, documents, but instead of starting the games directly, It allways ask me to open the file, movies or pics, but the game never starts automatically as It used to do in the past Windows versions, and in Windows 7 BEFORE SP1. It's imposible to play games that require the insertion of the disc into the CD Rom Drive, for the same reason.Im running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and have a LG Super Multi RwDVD +R DL Light scribe multirecorder.

(cannot use them)i noticed that when i start the laptop the POST test on the fans guns the fan to 100% speed so i know its capable of doing it. it seems like the fan doesnt know to speed up when it gets hot and it keeps shutting my system down and i reallllly dont feel like damaging my GPU. i tried rolling back my drivers and running the latest drivers.

C drive on SATA0
Steam drive on SATA1
Now, I got a new hard drive, so
C is on SATA0
New drive is on SATA1
Steam drive is on SATA2
Now, it seems that whenever I close a steam game, explorer.exe will crash. this is EVERY time. I can do it on demand, start a game, close the game.
I really have no idea what to do. I've tried uninstalling both drives and rebooting, letting Windows redetect them to no avail.
a couple games on steam and moved the icons into the games folder. Now I'm stuck with the default file icon and I cant do anything with it. I also went into appdata and delete EVERYTHING in games explorer and they are still there
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I click on games in my start menu only the games on my c drive show. I ran out of space on the c drive practically the day I bought it (SSD), so now I install games to my D drive. I tried dragging the .exe start file over to the games window and it did copy the icon over but I get a message that the game has stopped working when I click it, followed by automatic error reporting to Microsoft after.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it at all possible to hide the Downloads, Links, Favorites, Searches, Videos, Saved Games, and Contacts folders (just the folder, not contents)? I've tried just hiding it like any other folder but it won't work.AND if possible, have explorer open in my home folder instead of libraries.
PS: I tried disabling libraries entirely, but it opens to My Documents instead of my home folder.
So I've recently gotten a problem where my Windows Explorer will crash and then restart whenever I am playing games through Steam. And it's not every game either;just randoms. Sometimes it will happen the moment the game launches, other times it could be 15-20 minutes into playing. I'll get alt-tabbed automatically out of my game to that message and have to wait for it to restart to go back in, very frustrating. This only just started happening less than a month ago and I've been an avid Steam user since I built my first custom PC in February 2011.If I had to pinpoint the time Explorer.exe first started crashing, I'd say shortly after downloading a keygen for a non-Steam game... that i PURCHASED (Yeah, sounds stupid but it's a long story). The keygen seemed suspicious the moment I tried launching it, and nothing happened... so naturally I have followed up with beefing up my anti-virus/spyware defenses and running vigorous full-system scans. Speaking of, Microsoft Security Essentials (which my friend swears by..) just completed an entire scan, which took about 3 hrs to complete, and turned up not a single bad file .
After several virus scans to no serious threats, running CCleaner thoroughly, defragmenting my hard drive, performing that built-in system checker command in Cmd Prompt (can't remember the actual name), I ended up formatting and re-installing Windows 7 altogether. I have all of my games, music, photos, etc on my 1.5TB hard drive, and Windows on my SSD, so It wasn't a big deal. All seemed fine and well until I went to go play some games and then there it was again... then i started noticing every once in a while it would happen even on my desktop just simply browsing the web or something. My video drivers are up to date, I have made sure i'm up-to-date with Windows Update.
Looking to add a second "Games" folder to my Start Menu, not the user pinned list. Want to add a new Start Menu folder "Games(2)" to hold all of the games rarely accessed.I have been through the registry ...MicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanced,and have been through the folder ...ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsGameExplorer.I am attempting to create a new Registry DWORD Value for "...MicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvancedStart_ShowMyGames2" and then link this entry to a new folder.I have searched through Windows and online but not found anything offering how these Registry entries link to the actual folders.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 2 computers on the same network (connected to the same router). Now the problem is when one PC hosts a game, the other PC can't see it (and vice a versa). I have tried this with several games (both PCs using each game with same version) and still both PCs can't see each other.
On the other hand, under My Computer-Network, both PCs can see each other and access any shared files between the 2.
PS: Both PCs are running Windows 7 Ultimate x86
Each time i launch a game, a few minutes later my PC goes BSOD. I d really love to know why as i have updated every drivers.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a very new system in terms of hardware (6950 graphics, Core i5 processor, 8GB DDR3 RAM, etc), yet I get consistent stuttering in games. By stutter, I mean a 3-5 second freeze, that happens every few minutes. These only started up about 2 months ago (have had the computer for about 8 months).
The odd thing though, is that when I leave the computer on for a long time, and have run a number of programs/games already, the stuttering disappears. It only really shows up after I freshly restart the computer. When I put the computer to sleep (even for many many hours) instead of shutting it down, I don't have the stuttering when I bring it back awake, like I would if I had shut it down/ started it up.
I have a new HP Compaq DC 5700 64 bit computer that has Windows 7 as the OS, 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 processor and 3 GB RAM. I can play Chess Titans, but all the other installed games hang when I try to play. I get a message (see attached screenshot).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI bought a new system (Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit OS, 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 processor and 3 GB RAM). However, when I try to play the Microsoft games that came with it, the only game that runs properly is Chess Titans. When I go to START and click on the Solitaire, Mahjong, Hearts, Minesweeper or any game other than Chess Titans, the game looks like it's starting, the freezes and I get the message "Executable for (game name) has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly."I tried stopping the processes for the games in the program panel and re-starting them, re-booting after each procedure and also running an sfc /scannow. Nothing works

I load up the armory, And just as you get out of the tram-thing with johnson, I hear Lots of Sound Glitches, And the same thing as before. It does it a few more times. Then I played some DiRT 2 about 20 minute's ago, It it does the same thing.Now, I suspect It's only Games For Windows LIVE (GFWL) Games doing it, But then I remember that CoD4 did it. Now I'm afraid that if I play anymore games, And do this too much, That I will Seriously Screw My computer.

View 9 Replies View RelatedBefore the flaming begins, yes I'm a mac owner. For reasons which I won't get into mac was just a better choice for me, and I recently purchased a new mac book pro (I was always a pc guy before that). Well I don't know much about mac's and i'm still on the learning curve but that doesn't concern you guys much so here's my question:
I'm looking to get either windows xp or windows 7 to run through bootcamp so I can play games (yes we all know pc's are better for running games, but for now let that fact be irrelevant.) I'm looking to play games such as Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Starcraft 2, and Diablo 3, as well as a few of my favorite oldies. So should I get XP to run these or when these games come out will they only be compatible with Windows 7?
Also I'm already running bootcamp so if I have to run emulation software to run these games through windows 7 I don't know if it will work? And if you guys do suggest windows 7 should I go with basic or premium? (do i need the xp emulation software or can I just save that $100). As I said i'm looking to play older games that were made for XP when it first came out, as well as games that have yet to come out and probably won't till sometime in 2010 (hopefully). Thanks for your help!
I'm having incredible frustration with my pc. It LAGS during most games, including the following,
[code]...
So why on earth would these games lag??? IT's DRIVING ME INSANE! I can't play them without a lag and my system specs are above the "REQUIRED" system requirements to run the games.
1. There are no additional process's running in my process's that are chewing up my memory and slowing my pc down.
2. PhYsix is set to auto so it selects the best CPU for physix controlled games. And I've also tried both.
3. My games are run in the LOWEST possible game and graphic specs to try make it
less laggy, to no avail.
4. 3d is "disabled". So it can't be slow.
5. I do not have any virus's, and all my display drivers are correctly installed and up to date.
