Hi I do not know much about computers, but when I defragment the hard drive is it OK to play games while I wait?

I CAN'T PLAY GAMES FOR THE 'BING' PAGE LISTED
HI, I'M KIRK, MY PROBLEM IS GAMES, I CAN'T LOAD SOME GAMES WITHOUT THE 'BING' APEARING PAGE, WHEN IT THE FACT I DON'T KNOW WHATV TO DO TO CORRECT OR ERASE OR ELSE, WANT IT LET ME LOAD OR PLAY MY GAMES, CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE.
Hi w. KIRKPATRICK,.
I guess you're talking about playing games online in Windows 7.
(1) what happens when you try to play online games when BING opens?
(2) do you mean say that BING opens when you start Internet Explorer?
From what I understood the question seems simple. Change the home page default empty or some other sites that you want to, should make you feel better.
Access the link below to do the same thing, because he can explain most once better that I can actually do on the post.

Let me know this is not you want. I would be grateful if you can better explain what the question. I would also like to know what games is that you are trying to play and what website.
Is it just that some games bring to the top of the page Web BING?
Recover and we'll see what can be done better.

New network... can't play games on the internet more than 5 min
I have XPS 410 (office), we have recently bought a Sony Vaio laptop. We use Belkin to our wireless router. I installed it and our laptop connects fine to the internet; However our office we can only play for about 5 min on our group games before we get service unavailable or no internet connection found. Also, we noticed that when we are on the laptop, it is slow the office down. Any input would be greatly appreicated and hope everyone has a safe and happy labor day weekend.

Can I play games like the SIMS 3 and oblivion on Satellite A300D-17F?
Hey,.
I will soon buy the laptop Satellite A300D-17F, which has an AMD turion ultra 2.2 ghz, 4 GB RAM, ATI hd 3650, drive HARD 320 5400 rps... etc...
I was wondering if I could play games on it, but not crysis and far cry 2. I like games like Oblivion and sims...
I'm going to play these games without any problem and especially the sims 3 and oblivion... ??Thank you!!!
Hello!
Well for Oblivion, you need at least a processor at 3 GHz, 1 GB of RAM and a graphics card Radeon X 800 for details.
So I think that there should be no problem to play oblivion on medium-high quality, may be high is also possible.
Furthermore, I played The Elder Scrolls III (Morrowind), the game before and I liked it, it s a very nice RPG. :)I was wondering if you wrote about the SIMS 3 it of not released yet so system requirements are not known to me.
But I think that it should also work on your laptop at least of low quality.Good bye

It could be a coincidence, but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger. I know that when I've updated for a reason that I had to try 3 times before it took. It shows that it is updated. I wonder if I have to uninstall and reinstall. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went there to check I found a plug check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player necessary update but it was an older version and not a Foxfire had updated me too. Now I'm really confused if it causes a problem. I've never had to control Internet Explorer for plug-ins before. Have always just updated to Foxfire since that's what I use. Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos OK not really sure if this is the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been very well and have been updated some time there, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
Hey again,
After hours of reading and checking to make sure I had good things enabled, I did, I gave up and uninstalled the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, they gave me and re-installed and later I had my friend get on Messenger and we tried games and it worked this time.
For some strange reason when I updated it took me 3 tries before it took. So even if he told me that it has been installed, apparently it wasn't really. Just goes to show you that you can not trust what you see.
What has really scratching my head was I went to Internet Explorer 8, which I never use more and discovered you can now get Mozilla plug in slip out there and when I did showed that same Adobe Flash Player is outdated but it was to a different version. Not knowing if it would help, I installed a new too and he said it was his understanding that it does not. So I guess you can have 1 version installed on the computer 1 despite 2 browsers different different versions. It becomes too complicated for me. Laughing out loud!
I work with computers all the time at work but not the technical stuff. If it's something simple, I can guess through it to help someone but it's my first personal computer for me and is a former first, so I got experience using different types. We use the desk at work as well. Personally, I like computers laptops for various reasons. And the mention of people many browsers go way over my head.
Please answer this question though and you answer back.

Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
By design, the game is not compatible with windows7.
You can also check with the manufacturer of game for any version upgrade of this game, which could be compatible with windows7.Yes, if you have the dual operating system on your computer, you can play and record games on xp, start the computer in Xp and you can play the game.
I also invite you to visit this link to learn more about running the old programs/games in xp or vista compatibility mode.

How can I play a Blu - ray disc
Original title:?
How can I play a blu - ray disc
You need key components to play a Blu - ray disc. You need a Blu - ray drive for your computer, which can be purchased in electronic stores, if your computer did not come with one. You also need the Blu - ray playback software. Personally, I use Cyberlink PowerDVD as my go - to for playback of Blu - ray discs on my own computer, but there are a handful of other solutions. The reason main I like Cyberlink is that after having tried a variety of other solutions, he was the one who seemed to be most reliable and use fewer computer resources during playback. Here's a more detailed explanation of How to play Blu-ray discs on Windows.

Hello can I play games on windows XP 7?
Several years ago, I bought a game that was real intresting but I can't play anymore. The game is the medieval Lords. Have downloaded but dosent work.
Yes, you can play games on Windows 7 XP, but only if they are supported. It doesn't seem to be a developer or Publisher website, offering support for the game.
So, if she does not run in compatibility mode, it's game over for the medieval Lords...
