View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a couple programs that Windows can't close when it exits (Win XP). So when I exit, I have to manually click the popup Window that asks to close the program without saving it or cancel. Is there a way to have Windows do that by default for that particular program (or even for all programs) preferably after some period of time of not making a choice?

I have 2 Crucial DDR-333 512M sticks and a WD 80GB SATA drive.Now when I run Windows and basic apps(IE, Outlook, Firefox, etc) But when I run a few games like World of Warcraft, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth, etc. Occasionally it will just hang the PC. No error, just looping sound and freeze frame.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've had this problem for a couple of days. Every time I start a game like portal or team fortress 2 svchost.exe starts eating cpu. This goes on for a couple of minutes and suddenly svchost goes back to normal cpu usage.
I have 7 different svchost.exe processes in my task manager, 3 system, 2 local service and 2 network service.
I've downloaded process explorer and the svchost that takes all the cpu has the PID 1412, dunno if that info makes any difference but sounds important.
I've searched for svchost.exe to see if there are any more that could be possible viruses but i only found the one in /windows/system32/
I have no idea what could be causing this problem... Also, I apologize if there already is a solution for this in another topic. Didn't find any when I searched.
I downloaded some computer game files and now I am sorry and want to delete them but can't find the files that support them. The shortcut icons appear only on the fifth line of the Mozilla and I.E. browzer home pages. The address line shows the files at http://retrogamer.iwon.com/home.jhtml?tbdd=9197. The files do not appear under C: anywhere and the search function and Control Panel add/remove can't locate them either.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt seems my pc is doing something new that it hasent done before. Right in the middle of games the system just reboots on its own and then i get a Disk Consistency check. I have no idea whats doing this since it wont even give me a error message. Does anyone know what too look for here? A friend said overheating might cause this but he knows i got a big cooling system, even has a hard drive cooling system and a high speed CPU cooling fan with a exterior intake fan

The problem is as I am playing, the game stops amd returns to the desktop. I am almost through with the game and it has worked perfectly until now.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI thought it was this new game i installed, it would lag about every minute and a half, for about 10 seconds at a time. So i uninstalled the game. The only problem is now the computer seems to get bogged down much easier (running AIM and windows media player at the same time makes WMP songs slow), and enters 10 second "slow periods". This never used to happen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedA few months ago I built a system for a friend of mine. I had the system running stable @ 2.4 GHz (memory on a 5/4 divider, if I remeber correctly) for a week before I delivered it to him. By stable I mean dual prime overnight, memtest, and hours of COD2 without crashing. Now he has had it for a few months and he is reporting that randomly it will completely shutdown. He primarily uses it to play WoW and so far that is the only time it has crashed. It has not crashed during any other activity but he really doesn't use it for much else. It will usually crash 5 minutes into game play and after a restart it will be stable for the rest of the day. Ocassionally it will crash a few hours into game play. When the behavior first started it would BSOD. Now it just turns off with no warning. After restart it works fine. When it shuts down the standby LED on the MB remains lit but the DRAM power LED does not. I have updated the Graphics drivers to the latest 90 series beta drivers. That did not affect the problem.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI own a computer with a Pentium Presccot 3.20 Mhz and 1024 RAM Megas.I am using Windows XP with Service Packs 1 and 2. My motherboard is an Abit AI7 and my graphic card is a Gigabyte Radeon 800X. Everytime I exit one of my games after everything went OK with the game, for instance: Far Cry or Lock On, my computer crashes and restarts. Could it be that directX or the graphic card are not totally compatible with Servicepack 2?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a bit baffled by this problem here... I have just bought a game from the shops, put the CD in, and start the install, but then when its about half way through the install, the computer just restarts without an error screen or anything.I'm attempting to make a CD ISO Image to install from that, to see if it has anything to do with my CD/DVD Rom, but otherwise, what could this problem be?I have the latest version of direct-X installed, latest version of dot.net, latest version of graphics card drivers, and the windows installation is fresh, and had no errors during install, so it wouldn't be windows.The system I am running is an Intel I7 core 860, 3G RAM, with XP Professional service pack 2.

View 7 Replies View RelatedAs I'm sure you know, when you install most games, they create a desktop shortcut. However, these never work on my machine. Clicking them always pops up a message that says that the CD/DVD is not found, and it can't be located no matter how many times you hit "retry." The only way to start a game is to hit eject, then close the tray again. Even this just takes you to the disc's main menu rather than making the short-cut work.Now, I realize that I can just eject/insert the disk, or click the exe on the disk itself to play each time...I'm just curious as to why the game-installed shortcuts never work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis problem was brought about by just an autorun application for the game, 'The Movies' but seeing as it's a system issue, I thought it'd be better of here. I've tried numerous solutions to the problem and to be honest, I've not got very far - I always seem to be getting an error of some kind and it's preventing the game from installing correctly.
