• Is there a program that will allow me to play the game of win95/98 under XP SP2?

  I'm playing star trek armada on my pc but his works do not, it installed ok, will load and run the main menu ok, but as soon as I try and play a level screenbreaks up diferent in blocks of color, I tried to run it in compatibility mode for 95 and 98, but it won't work any help will be much appreciated.

  If you have or are able to legally acquire a Windows 98 license and product that you did not use to upgrade to Windows XP, then you have a few more options:

  1. You can dual boot XP and Win 98 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306559
  2. You can try to run Win 98 virtualized on your Win XP Host http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
  #1 option will be the best if you can come up with another hard drive or find a way to backup/repartition your existing hard drive.   The only problem you might encounter is that some features of yourNEW computer may not work in stand-alone 98.
  Option n ° 2 will be the lowest risk but you will need a Core 2 Duo or betterprocessor so that it works well enough for this scenario.  Virtual Box is free, and you must repartition your hard drive to try out it.  Virtual machine works pretty well for most things; Unfortunately, it will be probably slow for games.  It is possible, however, that your NEW computer is fast enough and that Star Trek Armada is old enough that youcan actually be able to have a pleasant experience.  Some people have really succeeded with older games doing that.
  Or the other option that you choose, you will need to acquire a completely valid original Windows 98 and you want to buy a Windows XP upgrade.  If I have several of Microsoft's EULA, buying anupgraded Version of a new OS invalidate your right to the old operating system.

• Why can't I play certan games without my parent password?

  So I downloaded this game and now everywhere I want to go I need my parents to allow me to have access to this... and that crazy parent it while I'm still allowed to play this game then why do I need my parents to give me access to this game?

  Ask your parents to change their settings to allow you to play the game.  We cannot help you circumvent the rules: they are the parents.  They put the rule in place, he can remove it.  It's just a simple check box (if they are willing to do).

• Slow laptop only when playing online games

  Hello
  So I noticed that my laptop has become suddenly very slow BUT! Slow down its only when I play online games, it's going to be ok for the 1st 5 minutes but after that it will really slow down, his strange since I can watch videos on youtube, etc and surf the web without problem. But if I try the game it will be slow.
  My specs are: Intel (r) Core (TM) i3 m350 2.27 GHz 2.26 GHz CPU
  RAM: 4 GB with 3.80 GB usable
  and the type of system is the 64-bit operating system
  I have windows 7
  And no, it's not a connection problem.
  Also my CPU usage when you play the game will no more than 54% (mainly bounces between 23% and 40%). and my ram is stable enough to 53%

  I use google chrome, I noticed he blames only when I use chrome, its fine with firefox.

  Going to uninstall chrome and download the latest version to see if that helps.

  Original title: dedicated video memory

  Hi Nick,

  You may experience this problem if a graphics card driver is damaged or outdated. I suggest updating the graphics card drivers and check to see if it helps:

  The drivers can be found here;

  file ZIP 32-bit: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22611

  file EXE 32-bit: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22610

  file EXE 64-bit: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22605

  You have the possibility to change the graphics memory in the BIOS. You must go into the bios of the computer/laptop and see what are the options that it offers to the shared memory. If you don't know how to get there, check the documentation of the computer/laptop or from the manufacturer (Dell's Support). You can also find information on what are the maximum value of the shares.

  Warning of the BIOS:

  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  Hope this helps, if you need help on windows let us know we will be happy to help you.

• Why I have to restart my brand new monster Vista 64 machine whenever I want to play a game online?

  I have a new brand, solid as a rock, high-end, cry of monster machine, fresh out of the box, fully updated with all updates from MS:
  Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67GHz
  12 GB DDR3 RAM
  2 TB of hard drive space
  64-bit Edition of Windows Vista Home premium.
  2 x Nvidia 295 in SLI

  I can do pretty much everything on this subject with the results you expect.  I can surf the web at lightning speed (assuming I'm not using IE8, who remember using NETSCAPE ago 15 years on a 14.4 modem), I can play any game I want with amazing performance.

  So why can't play ANY game online without first restarting my PC?
  I say play... City of Heroes for 12 hours or 12 minutes.  Disconnect me, go to sleep and the next day... No.  It does not connect to the DBserver.  I load the battle field (ANY of the battlefield series) and cannot update the list of servers.  I have a strong connection to rock, I can connect to ANY game online with all 4 of my installations of XP without problem (Yes, I mean when the Vista machine does not work on one game from all others work with this game without problem) The ONLY fix I have found is to restart the Vista Machine... single... time... I want to play an online game.

  I found the article on article on the post on the blog that talks about Vista incompatible nature with online games, including of Microsofts OWN games online.  The only answer I found Microsoft has been, and I am paraphrasing here "is not as bad as everyone say it's.

  Explanations?  Solutions?

  Hello Wachinagi,

  Thank you for posting.  The first thing is to check the power save options of your NIC (Ethernet card) in the Device Manager and make sure that it is configured to not allow.  I think that your NIC could go into powere saving mode.  I suggest you check the settings of your router and firewall.  Make sure that the appropriate ports are opened for the games.   Could also include the anti-anti-virus/firewall software you are using.

  Please let me know if it helps. Zack

• Problems of his Toshiba laptop watching video files (videos, when sound becomes stronger) or play a game of cards simple (audio clicks).

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite, with 2 GB of RAM, and I have strange problems with the audio. If I use the internal soundboard, asio drivers or my external soundboard.

  (1) when I'm watching a video in any player, or edit a video, if the sound is too loud the video begins to leaf through.  For example, if I'm watching a movie and there only dialogues, everything goes smoothly, but if there is a scene with the loud music and sfx, video films.

  (2) when I play a simple as solitaire card game, I just can't listen to any music because any time I do a movement with cards audio just getting clicks in all directions. I tried to reduce the animations, all animations, even the Visual fx of Vista, I used the basic Windows interface, and it's going better but not perfect. But of course, I don't want to do that just to play a game of cards and listening to music.

  Sorry for my English and thanks for any help you can give me.

  Hi reinaldes,

  1 when was the last time it was working fine?

  2. you receive an error message?

  Method 1

  I suggest that reduce you the hardware acceleration on your computer and check if it works.

  (a) open settings display by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, customization, and then clicking display settings.

  (b) click on Advanced settings, click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click change settings.

  (c) note that some video card drivers do not allow allows you to change the settings.

  (d) move the hardware acceleration slider to zero to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails then I suggest that you update the drivers for the sound card driver and the graphics driver by visiting the manufacturer's Web site.

• Satellite L850: Play a game - holding the SPACEBAR freezes cursor

  Got my first Toshiba with my first Windows 8 experience so IDK.

  But I play games where the space bar it s necessary to play the game, hold the SPACEBAR and by double-clicking on a card, it allows you to select what you want. With this Satellite L850-1 p 9 I can t do, holding space freezes the cursor.

• Satellite L850-1V0 - Fan error popped up while I was playing a game

  Recently, I got an error that displayed so I was playing a game, he said that the cooling fan had a problem and that I should stop it immediately and send it for service.

  It's the first time that I had this, I have a program called Speccy that tells me my computer's temperature and all these other things, the temperature is at its normal level and I've never had anything telling me: I had a front fan error.

  For safety I changed the battery of balanced ECO which decreased the temperature a bit more, I put my hand on the battery and is not still warm, I can hear the fan and I can feel something out the gills.

  Well, it seems like it was only false alarms.

  Usually the laptop would shut down automatically in case of high temperature. This is the kind of internal, protection against overheating.

  In any case I recommend you monitor the temperature level and keep an eye on the cooling fans.

  In addition, check if the new BIOS is available. If the new BIOS has been released, try the update.

• Satego X 200 - 21u + Win7: freeze all playing a game for about 20 seconds

  Hello

  installed win7 a few weeks ago and I need help.

  as long as I have used default displays the drivers of toshiba (~ 1 year) windows7 tends to freeze while playing a game for about 20 seconds, and everything goes normal again.

  After searching the internal pool, I discovered that most recent nvidia driver could solve this problem, so I downloaded the latest drivers for your laptop from there. now windows freezes over, but rather a huge amount of pixels displayed for fractions of seconds. could someone help me? is it possible that toshiba will bring display drivers compatible win7?

  What are the changes accurate toshiba brings to their drivers? I cannot repeat this manual?

  * edit *.

  SRY for the bad language :).

  using the version of 32-bit win7

  Hi mate,

  The point is that you should only use the Toshiba display drivers directly because are pre-tested on the on the laptop. Other drivers don't have overheating protection, which means that you can display errors and damage to the graphics card. So I advise to use Toshiba display drivers.

  I don t know the difference between display drivers, you should ask this Toshiba directly and not here in the forum of the user.

  Maybe there is another solution for your problem like cleaning your laptop with a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.
