Real Racing 2 has stopped working
I played real racing 2 for a while, and all of a sudden, it stopped working:
Real Racing 2 cannot be opened.
Real Racing 2 is damaged and cannot be opened.
Delete 'Real Racing 2' and download it again from the App Store.
I completely removed, downloaded again and reinstalled, but the same error.
Is the file in the repository of AppStore damaged?
No app updates don't store for more than 3 years.
You should probably visit the EA site and see if they can help you. http://www.EA.com/real-racing-2-Mac-app

Office Pavilion Elite HPE message: AMD/ATI Video Driver has stopped working properly
I have a Windows 7 Desktop HPE-410y, this morning, that the flag of the action center was at the bottom of the screen. I clicked on it and there was a message: AMD/ATI Video Driver has stopped working properly. He also said I should click on a link for a solution to this problem, but of course when I made the site of HP said that the page does not exist.
Maybe say if you have in fact noticed nothing else Action Center indicator would be useful. If it seems to you that the computer was OK and run satisfactorly, then perhaps he had already solved the problem. Usually reviews can occur if a program did unexpected things and crashed the video driver, then the driver recovered.
HP site can be set to an old page. The real driver has not been updated recently on the HP site.

SLOW computer: "xoutzoi has stopped working".
My Dell inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista has started running VERY slowly overnight. The mouse is too nervous. I get the message: "xoutzoi has stopped working". Sought to find xoutzoi & see that it is in the Elf AppData/Roaming in a folder called 'ozzuvao '. I'm NOT a computer expert (as you can probably just of my question).

Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working ONLY at startup on the desktop.
When I start my Dell Inspiron 531 after that sign in the screen will Dim twice for a few seconds then the Windows host process Rundll32 has stopped working window appears. If you close another small window exactly the same error message mentioned above tells you that Windows will look for a solution but NEVER done. I use AOL version 9.0, I can sign and the big surf for dial-up access. I tried to download free Kaspersky on their site and an error message said it was incomplete or corrupted. I have Windows Security Essentials, Stopzilla, CCleaner, Glary Utilities, you run sfc/scannow, it cleaned up a few files and he tells me that he has no integrity problem after 4 scans. The big short PC but what the _ is causing this Rundll32 error and why is there NO information specific on how to solve this problem? Also Internet Explorer cascades tiles and diverts the PC sometimes force a quick stop, it's really weird to see, very rare but happens. Systerac Fix of Windows crashes after starting an analysis on current user files, really strange, as if something is trying to stop him on purpose. I wish that Microsoft would really worry about the Rundll32 error of work ceased and tell us customers how to fix this shit it is very boring I'll tell you. I want that my host process Rundll32 to work as it did for the past 2 years with no error message at startup. He never gives me these messages while I use the Internet. There are many pages of misinformation out there, can some Microsoft Engineer please give me that a definitive answer in particular to the Windows host process Rundll32 has ceased to function the error at startup ONLY and tell me how to fix Rundll32 file or the process, it would be greatly appreciated? Thank you. Woman
