My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games.
My guard computer shut down unexpectedly when I play games. Now it is not always the case, just sometimes. The other day I was playing Sims 3 all day, literally, with the graphics settings maxed out and had no problem. The next day, he would crash as soon as it finished loading, even with the graphics settings at the bottom. Today, it was working fine this morning and now it crashes again. I had the same problem on and off with other games as well, Halo 2, Kings Bounty, UT 3. Here is my system:
OS - Vista Ultimate 32 bit
Processor: Core 2 Quad Q9400 @ 2 .66GHz
RAM - 4 x 1 GB PC6400 DDR2/800
MB - MSI P7N SLI - FI
HARD drive - 150 GB x 2 (Raid 0) Raptor 10 k RPM
PSU - 1000 watts
GPU - NVidia GeForce 9800GT 1 GB (x 2 in SLI)And the error I get from Event Viewer:
Filter event with the query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor' AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0 x 80041003.» Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is resolved.
I got the error almost everyday since I got the computer, about 10 months ago, but it only blocks the computer if I play a game. I tried the 'fix' that removes the WMI event viewer 10 error, but everything done was make sure the error is not logged. I also tried another fix I found me delete the files in the repository, but that no longer works. I also run scans of complete system of virus/malware Spybot Search & Destroy and AVG 8 and verified the updated driver for my hardware. I also ran diagnostic tool memory. Who has good/clean/current. Can it be fixed or what I have to reinstall the OS?
Hi JerHekSr,
Thank you for using answers Forum.
The first thing that comes to mind would be to check the motherboard manufacturer for an update of the firmware/BIOS.
The error message mentions "loadpercentage > 99' which looks like you are running may at maximum load of the CPU while the game and that is the cause of the crash. You could try a clean boot to prevent the using CPU resources while you play to see if it makes a difference of strtup programs.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts. This article describes how to solve problems in Windows Vista by performing a clean boot. This article also describes how to start the Windows Installer service and how to reset the computer so that it starts as usual.
Note When you perform a clean boot, you may temporarily lose some functionality. When you start the computer as usual, the function returns. However, you may receive the error message, or you can experience the original behavior.
If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
a. log in the computer using an account with administrator rights.
b. click Start collapse this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .
c. under the general tab, click Selective startup , and then clear the Load Startup items check box. (The box use the Boot file is not available.)
d. on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft services check box and then click on disable all .
Note Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
e. click OK , and then click restart .
Step 2: Enable half the services
a. follow steps 1a and 1B to start the System Configuration utility.
b. click on the Services tab and then click to select the hide all Microsoft services check box.
c. Click to select half of the check boxes in the Service list.
d. click OK and then click restart .
Step 3: Determine whether the problem returns
If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have initially enabled in the Service list.
If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.
If only one service is selected in the list of services , and you the problem persists, the service selected the cause of the problem. Go to step 6. If no service is causing this problem, go to step 4.
Step 4: Enable half of the startup items
a. perform a clean boot by repeating step 1.
b. click on the Startup tab and then click to select half of the check boxes in the startup item list.
c. click OK , and then click restart .
Step 5: Determine whether the problem returns
If the problem persists, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you have originally selected in the startup item list.
If the problem does not occur, repeat steps 1 and 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the startup item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.
If only one startup item is selected in the startup item list, and you still experience the problem, start selected in the list element is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.
If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely the cause of the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the hide all Microsoft services check box in each step.
Step 6: Resolve the problem
After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.
Step 7: Reset the computer to start as usual
When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
Click on start to reduce this image enlarge this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.
The collapse of this image to this image if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click continue .
On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK .
When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart .
I hope this helps. Chris

09 August to the a few weeks ago, I had a modem for internet on my computer. As we know, dialup is very slow. But a few weeks ago I had my digital internet on and things have accelerated. But I'm having a problem with some Web pages. It seems that whenever I try to open more than 1 page, or I come to a page that has a lot of objects in motion on it, everything slows to a crawl. I used to now have this problem when I had internet faster before. I downloaded the latest versions of Adobe Flash player, shockwave last, more recent readers Real and Quicktime, and yet my computer slows down. I need to update any other thing or what? Or I did my updates get corrupted when I had access to remote and if yes, how to say? Thank you
Hi miles,
I want to start by saying that all the options of the Internet high speed are not equal. You could see the right speed for the connection you have.
But... There are a few things we can look at to make sure that your system runs as quickly as possible. Your system seems to work "eye catching" or "flange" in its use of local emissions? :-)
Let start by resetting IE to default values and to see where we are.
Close IE, print or copy these suggestions...
Click on START and type > Internet options > press enter
On the general tab, click on delete... > default options should be good for this. Click on delete.
When you are finished, click the Advanced tab. Under reset Internet Explorer settings section, press the Reset... button.
In the tab programs, click on Manage Add-ons
Disable toolbars like MSN or Google. Toolbars are known to cause problems.Launch IE and give it a go and let us know what happens. Mark <> Microsoft Partner

Hi Beverly,.
Try a system restore BEFORE it starts and see if that returns things to normal and eliminates the problem. If the first attempt fails, try again using a restore point earlier. If you use Windows 7, see:http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html. If you are using Vista, see:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/. If you are using XP, see:http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial56.html.
If this does not work, we will check your system and hard disk for corruption files and test your hard disk and RAM to make sure they work properly. Follow these steps:
Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run. It will scan and try to correct some of your system files. If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228).
While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run. They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot. Answer Yes and restart to run the program. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.
To test your hard drive, try HD diagnosis (http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) or this test: hard drive diagnostics tools and utilities (storage) - Corp of TACKtech (http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287). If it fails the test, replace it. If she passes the test, then it's probably nothing wrong with it.
You can also test your RAM to http://www.memtest.org/. Here are the additional instructions that can help: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html. If it fails, test each piece individually to find those who are bad and replace. If it passes, the RAM is probably OK.
If the above does not help identify or resolve the problem (including the verification of previously suggested by the Cyber malware), then post back with the results of what you have tried and as much detail as you can provide (such as your version of Windows and other information on your system) and we will deepen the problem to find the cause and a solution and so that I could provide some of these alternatives and the procedures now, I don't want to overwhelm you with options at this stage (and these results could help refine what to try).
Good luck!

Computer slowed down after updates
A home computer using Vista premium with current updates began to slow down about 30 days ago. After a normal start (about one minute) to power, the system seems to stop. No CPU activity and a bit of disk activity. Sometimes, keyboard and mouse die requiring a re - start. Problem seems to go away after about 30 to 50 minutes of no apparent activity. I suspect the hard drive, but could be motherboard controller or (I hope) a software setting.
MalwareBytes no problem after full search.

Download the official tester of WD here: http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=612&sid=3&lang=en&print=y. Run all the tests. I'd be surprised if you do not have to FAIL as a result.

54 degrees C is too hot. Mine 32 tracks. The high temperature is just another symptom that you say it's a failure.
When a player throws a bad sector, it is likely to have more to come. Yes, there are routines to 'fix' sectors defective, but given the cost of a new disc and the benefits of the most recent, it just makes no sense to fool around with a piece of material that might be causing a lot of headaches
Everything simply good judgment says that you invest time with the help of a failing drive. Get off your data when you can't always. Buy yourself a replacement. Probably less than $100. They are really not so difficult to change. Tips: When you buy, make sure it is a 7200 RPM drive. Buy the so-called OEM drives, they are exactly the same but less expensive because you are not buying the package. There is a very noticeable difference in performance between the most common 5400 and 7200. Your current drive is a 5400 RPM one.
From the data above, you almost 750 G. It seems that 500 would do the trick.
