• Vista stops in game

  Hi.Have problems with gaming.Computer stops in game. The weird part is that it stops sometimes and sometimes not. After I cleaned the computer of dust, I played 10 minutes and stop it again. Help, please

  * original title - close all playing / dust cleaning did not help (help) *.

  Human salvation to help,

  Please make sure that your video card drivers are up to date:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

  Also, please see the troubleshooting following thanks Gloria - Support Engineer:

  What kind of temp monitor do you use? Is that reading in Celsius or Fahrenheit? And what is that playback - the CPU, the memory, the card graph, or everything just the enclosure? Let me know because this certainly looks like a heat problem. It is much more difficult to clean the case on a laptop to a desktop computer, so if you're not a true computer person then you should probably take it to a qualified technician of looking at it. That case should probably not be open and blown out with canned air and if you have a good tech that you trust, the CPU thermal paste re-applied, it can dry and disintegrate over time.

  The only other thing that I think that this would be a failed power would then you will want to check the supply voltage. You can download a program, like the temp monitor to control tensions. Make sure that your 12V rail will not too high - I have seen that on a computer of heat.
  I hope this helps!

  Hello Salman,

   

  Thanks to join Microsoft Community where you will find all necessary information about the Windows operating systems.

  The computer stops all playing games.

  The question may be pilots because of the interruption by corrupt or third-party programs.

  What is the brand and model of the computer?

  To check if the issue is due to the interruption by corrupted drivers or third-party programs, I suggest you follow the steps:

  Method 1:

   

  See the site:

   

  The problems of the game performance

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/fixing-game-performance-problems

  You can get the drivers for the graphics card on the site:

  http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&DwnldID=20598

   

  Method 2: Clean boot

   

  When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.

  See the mentioned site:

  How to perform a clean boot for a problem in Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 3 of section to set your computer to normal startup.

  Note: If in case, you are connected via a connection wireless, and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check wireless see corresponding section are checked (enabled).

  I hope this helps. If the problem persists, or if you have problems of Windows in the future, let us know and we would be happy to help you.

   

   

   

• In all the hearts of Windows games, it seems that they do not know the rules. The Queen of Spades is just like a heart in the real rules

  In all the hearts of Windows games, it seems that they do not know the rules.  The Queen of Spades is just like a heart in the real rules. I don't have to play the Queen.  If hearts have been broken, and all I have left is some hearts and the Queen of Spades, I can play a weak heart rather than being forced to play the Queen.  The windows game apparently does not know this rule.

  original title: rules of hearts

  Hello

  Actually if the Queen of Spades breaks hearts and cannot therefore be considered a heart
  is optional. The basic rule is that the Queen of Spades does not break hearts and must be conducted
  If a player has the Queen of spades and still hearts if hearts have been broken.

  My preferences are the Queen of Spades or a heart can be played on the 1st round Sub in the Clubs.
  And the Queen of Spades does not break the hearts and must be conducted if only he and hearts are
  left in the hands and hearts have not been broken. Those who make for much more difficult game
  MY HUMBLE OPINION.

• How to stop Windows Update to take keyboard focus, when you are asked "do you want to restart now?

  Windows Update often wants to restart the computer after an update.  If you say "not now" (or ignore?), he will later pop up a question "reboot now?" in a bubble of task bar.  INCREDIBLY, it will at that time take keyboard focus of everything that happens and then accept what he gets as a response from the user.  This means that if the user was in the middle of typing something, the following sequence of keys will enter the bubble "you want to restart" instead of some request the user was in the middle of the help.  It's very bad.

  Here is what just happened to me.  I was in the middle of typing a document when the keyboard focus was suddenly taken by the issue of recovery, a fraction of a second later, the following combination of keys, he disappeared - I have no idea what hit it.  Fortunately, I saw the flash and guess what had happened and quickly you press 'save' on my request.  A few seconds later, my application has been closed as the machine restarted.

  I think that the bubble of Windows Update SHOULD NOT STEAL the KEYBOARD FOCUS.  I think it's dangerous and bad design.

  What is the best way to communicate this suggestion to the team of Windows Update?

  Is there a setting to stop Windows Update to do this?  (Stop stealing keyboard focus)

  I use Vista Home Premium

  I'm looking for a Microsoft solution for the specific problem I described, and/or advice on where post for better attention to Microsoft to "design problem".

  None of us are obstruction you. If we knew a way to avoid this problem (problem), we would have mentioned it earlier in this thread.

  You aren't the first person to complain about this and I'm sure you won't be the last. According to Microsoft, you have two options:

  1 use an automatic updates setting other Automatic (for example, download updates but let me choose whether to install them). or...

  2. turn off the automatic updates and get your updates manually (which I don't recommend).

• Windows games does not - to loose color and resize

  I realize that this is not the most critical application in Windows Vista, but these games really provides a nice break.  When I open one of the windows games, the window and the cards are grayed out.  If I move my mouse over the game to another application window, the game returns to its colors original and active.  But as soon as I bring my mouse to try to play the game, it's all gray and have fun in size.
  I tried to delete and add games available in the Control Panel, but alas... nothing
  Hi girl Lake of gold,.
  -The problem only occurs with these games?
  -Don't you make changes to your computer before the problem?
  
  There are a few steps you can try:
   
  Step 1:
   
  Perform the scan SFC . The tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker scans missing or system corrupted files and repairs them.
  
  Step 2:
   
  If this doesn't help, you want to put your machine in a clean boot State in order to determine whether any third-party application is causing the problem to occur.
  
  Step 3:
   
  If the above two steps are little help, you could create a new user account and check.
  If it works fine in the new user account, you would want to fix the damaged user account .

• Window games 7

  New computer & new installation of windows 7. No games. Features I've tried, but I get a message "an error has occurred, not all features that are installed.
  Any ideas on troubleshooting and resolution?
  Thank you

  Hey prairiedog,.

  This could be because some of the system files required by running Windows games are missing or are damaged. My suggestion to solve this problem is to run the System File Checker to replace missing or damaged files.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  2. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow
  
  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
  To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

  1. open an elevated command prompt.
  2. type the following command and press ENTER:

  findstr/c: "[SR] cannot repair the military file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt

  Note The Sfcdetails.txt file contains details of every time that the System File Checker tool has been run on the computer. The file contains information about the files that are not repaired by the System File Checker tool. Check the date and time entries to determine the problem files that were found last time that you ran the System File Checker tool.

  3. type the following command and press ENTER:

  Edit sfcdetails.txt

  The Sfcdetails.txt file uses the following format:

  The date/time SFC detail

  If the System File Checker tool cannot repair a file, follow these steps:

  1. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

  takeown /f Path_And_File_Name

  For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

  2. type the following command and press ENTER to grant administrators full access to the file:

  ICACLS Path_And_File_Name/grant ADMINISTRATORS: F

  For example, type icacls E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll/grant administrators: F.

  3. type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy of the file:

  Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination

  For example, type copy E:\temp\jscript.dll E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

  Information available at:

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  After you run the tool, try to activate the features and games programs. If the SFC scan replaces missing files successfully, you should be able to run games on programs and features.

• Windows games that came with my laptop

  I do I have re - captured windows games that were installed when I bought my laptop? I don't have a DVD? is there way to re - install these games?

  If these are the games that come with Vista, then you should be able to get them back by going to Control Panel / programs and features.
  Then click on "Turn Windows Features on and out"
  Expand the games section and select the games you want to be active again.

• How to stop windows that open up behind the taskbar and sidebar

  I was wondering if there was a way to stop windows from behind the taskbar and sidebar of Vista SP2, I currently have my taskbar on the right side on the same width as my sidebar, located on the left side of the screen. Both have been set to keep above other windows. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

  Even if it meant having the image of the shrunken desktop so it fit perfectly into the space remaining.

  Also, is it possible to have a mobile wallpaper?

  Oddities of the operating system, I think. Having the bar spots on the side at least gives you a chance to save a program window. I run the taskbar double wide at the top, and some programs insist on opening umderneath it. I have to resize the task bar if I want to be able to move the window anywhare. Also happens in Win 7...

  DreamScene animated backgrounds were for Vista Ultimate only, but Stardock has called the Scapes desktop that will run on other versions of Vista, but you must pay for it.
