Data Execution Prevention ended at Half Life 2 (hl2.exe)

I bought half-life 2 and install it on my new Vista pc. So I finished the installation, and I open up half-life 2. It takes a strangely long time to load, and the second it seems to finish loading, it closes, saying that he had a problem and hl2.exe had to be closed. In my taskbar, a small message will appear, indicating that the prevention of execution of data is completed half-life 2, click here for more details. So I clicked on the little bubble, and he showed a lot of things on the data execution prevention. And so I tried to disable it to hl2.exe and hl2_launch.exe, and then I restarted my computer. Once rebooted, my computer, I opened hl2.exe again. Same thing has happened, data execution prevention blocked hl2.exe. (And I'm sitting at my desk thinking, "Hold it.") Didn't I just put hl2.exe and hl2_launch.exe as exceptions in the data execution prevention? ") So I googled until I found another way to help." Then I went in cmd, it ran as administrator and copied and pasted the code from a help page - bcdedit.exe/set {current} nx AlwaysOff

and you press on enter. I restarted my computer again. When it restarted, I opened half-life 2 and whadd' are knows, I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. So what the hell is happening? Is it my computer? Or did Bill Gates? Help, please. It seems that I can't turn off DEP, and I can't add a program as an exception, even though my computer says I can. Oh yes, and I am the administrator, with all the privileges on my computer.

Hello
 
As you have already given an exception to this game and the problem persists, it must have some other programs interrupted during the launch of a game. Try to disable all non-Microsoft programs and then play the game to check its operation.
 
1. follow step 1 to perform a clean boot to disable all non-Microsoft programs: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
2. restart the computer and launch the game to check its operation.
3. If the game works fine, then follow step 2 to step 6 to find out what is causing the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
4. follow step 7 to start the computer as usual.
 
You can also check if the problem continues in a new user account.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
 
For more assistance, you can post your request here or contact the game manufacturer to find if there is a patch for this game: http://support.ea.com/
 
I hope this helps.
 
Kind regards

  • Data Execution Prevention

    First of all, I hate Windows 7. I can't download any site plans. Internet Explorer stops just when I try to download from a trusted site. Tells me that the problem is Data Execution Prevention matter.  If anyone has had a similar problem and fixed it, please let me know how you did it.

    Ok. No problem. If you don't want to try to solve the problem, it's your choice.
    When something they are trying in a browser doesn't work, then the next step is to try it in another browser. The reason is that not all Web sites are optimized for all browsers. For example, there are the sites of online banking that will work correctly with Internet Explorer and not other browsers (Firefox, Opera and others). This is the reason why you should try another browser.

    What do you use on a firewall and virus/adware/malware protection?

    In fact, Windows 7 is considered by many, including me, to be the best operating system that Microsoft has just released on the market.

    If you use Windows 7, then the image I posted must be precise. It is the operating system that is started on this PC at the moment.

    I want to ask you is what you mean when you said "download any site plans.

  • Windows Update gets closed by Windows Data Execution Prevention

    Running Windows XP Pro with SP3.  Windows Update is set to warn me of updates.

    For the last two days, whenever I turn on, a popup appears saying

    -Microsoft Windows data execution prevention.  To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program.  Name: Windows Update.  Publisher: Microsoft Corporation.

    It gives me a "close this window" button, but if I click on it it just reappears.  The offending executable seems to be wuauctl.exe.

    I checked and the only wuauctl.exe on my system is where it should be, in \Windows\System32\, although there are also a large number of \Windows\pchealth\ErrorRep\UserDumps entries all from when I first encountered the problem.

    What has gone wrong and what I would do to this topic?

    ger1atric,
    I suggest that you make sure you have Latest Windows Update Agent.  If you do and are still getting the error, then try the steps listed below.

    If your computer is set to apply DEP to all programs and services, the DEP error message will have a change settings button. If an update of the program is not available, follow these steps to add an exception for the program of the DEP error message:

    1. When you receive the error message, click change settings.
    2. Click to select the check box next to the program, and then click apply.
    3. When you are prompted to restart your computer, double click on OK and restart your system.

    You can also add an exception for the program by using System Properties in Control Panel. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, click run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    2. Click the Advanced tab, click performance, and then click settings.
    3. In the Performance Options, click the Data Execution Prevention tab, and then click Add.
    4. In the Open dialog box, locate and then click the program.
    5. Click Open, click apply, and then click OK. When you are prompted to restart your computer, click OK.
