Halo: Combat Evolved for PC works only on Windows Vista - Error Message "" unload the debugger, and then try again."
I'm having a problem running Halo: Combat Evolved on Windows Vista. I can insert the disc and install the game without problem. The problem is that when I try to launch the game, I get error message saying "" unload the debugger, and then try again." I tried to install some of Halo patches to see if that would fix the error (for example, 1.6 and 1.7), but when I try and open the patch .exe file I get an error message telling me to go to a microsoft Web site or try to update the game manually. In addition, I tried to contact Gearbox Software to see if they could help me, all they said was to contact Microsoft.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the game does not work for me and how can I make it work?
Let me know, thanks. :)

Literally just installed Halo on Win 7 64 bit. You have another computer, you can test the media with to see if there is something wrong with the drive? Also try a clean boot.

I reinstalled the air combat Simulator 3 but he can't play. He gets at the beginning and then freezes. I've got shield deluxe antivirus 2009. He has not done this with the 2008 deluxe version of shield. Yet, I can play any other game.
Hi gullo56,
Welcome to Microsoft Answers Community Forums.
To help you better I would ask,
a. If it functioned very well under Windows 7 before?
· I suggest you to disable your firewall security software and check if you are able to play the game.
From the link below, what I discovered is Microsoft Flight Simulator 3 is not completely compatible with Windows 7, but I would suggest that you follow the steps below to help troubleshoot your problem.
1. as Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 is supported by Microsoft Windows Vista to function normally, I suggest you run this program in Vista compatibility mode in Microsoft Windows 7.
For information about how to run a program in an earlier version of Windows, visit the link below,
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows
2. you can also try to reduce the hardware acceleration and check if it solves your problem,
1. Click Start-> Control Panel-> appearance and personalization.
2. under customization, click on adjust the screen resolution.
3. in the display settings dialog box, click the Advanced Settings button.
4. in the monitor Properties dialog box, click the Troubleshooting tab.
5. click on the change settings button.
6. in the Security dialog box, click on continue.
7 move the hardware acceleration slider to none to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.
8. click on OK.
9. restart Windows.
Hope this information helped you.
Kind regards

I am running Windows 7, 64 bit, home premium on a Dell Studio 1558 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD4500-5100 graphics card and an Intel Core i3. It has 4 GB of RAM.
When I try to read files MTS using Windows Media Player I get the error message "your computer is low on memory. Quit other programs, and then try again,"even with no other programs running. Windows Media Player will play other types of video files without difficulty.
Any suggestions as to what can be the cause of the problem and how to fix?
TBH I'm not sure.
All I can say is on my desk, I have not loaded a pack of codecs only support of any kind and WMP12 plays my MTS files very well. Supported by this statement in Windows Media Player 12 is also capable of playing AVCHD formats (. ) M2ts et . MTS ). [13]" from - http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_Player and the fact that
in WMP12 - "Media files (all types)" MTS has listed as an acceptable format. My office has an AMD/ATI HD5670, and like I said seems to play.
- Have you tried to run a full anti-recent virus scan? If this isn't the case, update your antivirus program and run a scan full to see if it finds problems.
- Then try a sfc/scannow scan to see if it detects and fixes something.
- Just checked, you have installed WMP12? (it should be, but just a double check).
This type of problem (or similar) has developed before items such as http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-pictures/Windows-Media-Player-and-low-memory-issues/bb4bf226-8bd0-41A5-9eed-9be08e6d3bdb and http://www.TomsHardware.co.UK/answers/ID-1699934/computer-running-low-memory-Windows-Media-Player.html and some people said re-register the DLL of WMP files helped. Personally, I've never needed to test or try this kind cannot confirm.

Notepad or WORD or EXCEL, Lotus SAMETIME, I prefer SEPARATE (for multiple open documents) instead of tedious proceedings hover over the icon and then choose the one I want. I can't figure out how to change that, and it's a boring true change to XP. Does anyone know how to do this?
Go to the Start menu button, right-click on it, select Properties, click the task bar .
Click the drop-down list buttons Taskbar & select never combine.
That's all. You should now see an entry of the separate taskbar for each open file on your PC.

Programs work only with windows vista
I've had nothing but trouble with my new computer and am more convinced, it's because of Vista. Every program that I buy, which says compatible with vista doesn't work properly or at all. The most recent is Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. It worked 'ok' for a short period and now does not start at all. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and I get the same message "not responding". I bought other programs and had to take them because they would not work with vista. I also have a lot of programs that I can't use because they are not compatible with vista. When I bought my computer, I asked for XP and learned from Dell that it came only with Vista... What I want to know is can I get a refund for vista so I can get an operating system that works? Thank you.
There may be a problem with the operating system. Programs you cite have no problems on my computer and I have not heard of them being problems on someone elses.
XP has not been for sale for a few years. Any refund is Dell. What edition of Vista do you have? You can use the recovery software and restore your computer as long as the plant and start over.

Digital Image Suite Plus including v10 Pinnacle Studio works only on Windows Vista
Orgnal title: Digital Image Suite Plus including Pinnacle Studio v10
I have been using Microsoft Photo Suite Edition on my computer with Vista. It has about 8 000 pictures on it. I made 3 DVD of our life story and have more than 1 or 2 to end it. Every time now that I try to open the program, the icon keeps circling and will not open anything. I have to turn off the computer each time to stop him. How can I open the program to create new stories of the picture?
Hi Bob,
(1) since when are you facing this problem?
(2) remember to make changes before this problem?
Method 1: Put the computer to boot and then check if the problem persists
Follow step 1 in the link below,
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.
Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.
After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.
Important: n ' forget not to put the computer to a normal startup follow step 7 in the link.
Thank you, and in what concerns:
