  • Why my computer keeps stopping when I play facebook game

    My computer uses the Ultimate version, and recently he maintains close itself when I play facebook games. No matter if I use Firefox or Google Chrome, it will stop after 10 minutes or so in the games. And I have to wait a few minutes before I can turn the computer back on. Please can someone help me with this problem. The computer seems to work on other pages, well, only facebook games give me the problem.

    Thank you very much.

    Sounds like a hardware problem, could be one of the following:

    (1) if it is a new PC, you must call/contact manufacturing because it should covered by a service contract.

    (2) if it is a PC that you upgraded to Windows 7, then you should download device drivers for Windows 7 on your PC manufacturer's support web site. Also equally important to the driver for your graphics card.

    ATI: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx

    NVIDIA: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us

    (3) if its an overheating problem, remove side trim and blow out the dust bunnies using a can of compressed air. This includes the heatsink and fan, power (evacuate nozzle with compressed air from the inside outwards) and dust from the motherboard and the case. Ensure that the card fan also. Note: Take the PC outside when you do!

    I hope that Super Antispyware has given you the opportunity to remove those things. Since your initial Malware scan came clean, it is likely that located SuperAntispyware cookies only track, which are odious, but generally not a threat from System.

    It is possible that you have apps which unknown to you, that run automatically in the background whenever you start your program. It is good to check if they are legitimate and necessary to launch when you start your PC.

    Start button, click on you. In the run box, type: msconfig.exe

    A System Configuration tool runs. Go to the Startup tab. You will find a list of applications that are set to run every time your PC starts. If you recognize all of them, use Google to help identify their purpose. Many times, you can open the application that is in question and prevent the application from starting. For example, on my system, I see that Java runs once more a verification tool to update each time you start. In this case, I can set my preferences Java Panel, select Java and uncheck automatically search for updates.

    I also use OpenOffice and it wants to run a startup of service to reduce the time that openoffice requires to open. I don't really want something constantly running in the background to save me a few seconds to open the application. Then I go to Google to find out where the switch is to disable this "feature".

    If you have unwanted applications running in the background, it is best to either uninstall, our to disable the option that allows them to run at startup. Although you could definitely "uncheck" the application through msconfig.exe, it is essentially a tool of troubleshoouting and not intended for the struggle of the apps (even if you do).

    You can always uncheck/check again on this list to see their impact when you then restart your PC.

    Once you have verified that apps that are set to start, you can run Windows Task Manager and scroll elements in the process and Services tabs to see what is running. The Services tab can be pretty intimidating to investigate on (there is a lot of misinformation the ' net), so if you are unsure about the services listed, it is best to ask or to jump on this area.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then

  • 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 .

  • Down computer when I play older games

    Driver ATI Radeon HD 5800 is blocked (I tried updates research said its date too) when I play older games like assassin creed, star wars jedi knight jedi academy. Just got this computer last month. I tried the Troubleshooting compatibility so many different times and always the older games I play the crash. pls help

    The best thing I can say that each of you is to wait for the best drivers for your video card, because your problems are the result of video card drivers.  The latest drivers I tried to fixed ATI actually a graphic error I had with one of my games on Windows 7.  I always use Vista ultimate 64 as my main OS because I lose some features I love when you go to Win 7.  But other that some problems of video card drivers, I've not really had no problems with Windows 7. I have a simple philosophy: just assume everyone is a piece of c.r.a.p. and then be pleasantly surprised if you find someone who is not.

    EPPT

    With the computer turned off and not plugged in you should carefully blow out the fan and radiator.  Laptops are not suitable for playing games in the first place.  If the cooling block does not help and the computer is more than a year, you may need to reapply the thermal CPU paste or frankly just not playing games with her.

  • Re: Satellite L655-146 - start screen shaking when I play any game

    Hello

    I bought this laptop about 5 months ago and since I'm doing that I had the same problem all the time. Tried a few things to do something, find some ideas on the internet but still nothing.

    It has Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit, 3 GB of Ram, Intel Core i3 and card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145. When I play any game, even if it was a game of simple graphics, the game start screen shaking and in most cases it became freezing or which gives a black screen (ESC, ALT + F4, ALT + CTRL + delete) do not work with it. Yes, whenever I had to shut down my computer and start it again.

    Sometimes I have this message "display driver driver AMD unresponsive and was recovered successfully.

    Is this a hardware or software problem, and what can I do?

    Thank you
    Hossam.

    Hey,.

    > driver AMD display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered
    It seems that something is wrong with the display driver have you already tried to reinstall the display driver? Display driver is important, especially when you play games.

    I advise to use the latest Toshiba display driver that you can download here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But before you install the new display driver first remove the old one. Then restart your computer and remove old registry keys. Therefore, you can use a registry cleaner like CCleaner. It of freeware and very nice tool. After this restart again and then install the latest display driver.

    Check this box!
