• Unexpected freezing problems randomly on Gears of War (PC)

  Hello

  I have a computer with Vista 32 installed. The main components of the system are;
  -Core two 7500 Due (2.93 Ghz)
  -6 GB of Ram
  -ATI 3870 GPU (Catalyst installed 9.9)

  In fact, game performance is perfect, but I have the problem of unexpected freeze at random during the game Gears of War. I have to press ctrl + alt + delete to return to Vista

  At first, I thought that it is a memory problem. I used to have 2 x ATI 3870 in cross fire mode and 2046 MB physical memory.  To increase the physical memory, I removed one of the card and now I see 3070 MB of physical memory. Then I re-load the game to check the difference, but after 45 minutes the game freezes up to play again. Here are the details;
  -At the start of the game, I have used physical memory 59%
  -During the game, I have used physical memory 67%
  -When the game freeze-up, I have 67 physical memory %

  I guess that this is unrelated to the memory. In any case, when I checked the performance of the processor to freeze-up, I can see 100% full load. In my view, that the causes of the problem. I suppose that there is something on the game code that causes my charge of 100% of the CPU and no response.
  No idea what can be the problem?

  Furthermore, I have similar problems on other games such as Crysis and Red Faction. For example, when I play Crysis on win XP with DirectX 9.0 c, with no no problems, but on Vista with Directx10, Yes. I think that there are some questions on Directx10.

  Could you please help?

  Thank you

• Re: Pomp L40 - 18 x: Graphic is distorted playing Gear of Wars

  Hello! I installed the game gear of wars, but the graphic is distorted.

  Any advice?

  I have some video diver already upgraded to the latest version.

  Hello Juanito

  Please take a look again in the announcement made by InvaderZim.
  He said that the L40-18 x laptop computer is not a real game machine. I agree with InvaderZim.

  The Intel graphics card was not designed for games. Of course, you would be able to play the games, but you shouldn't t expect any graphic performance.

  In addition, you use a Win Vista OS. This OS needs more resources for laptop running Win XP for example. That's why you should t wonder that your game does not work smoothly!

  With regard to the patch of the game.
  I put t know if a fix is available or not but if it s is available, then you should check the Web site of manufacture of game for more details.

  Hi NoOneSpeciale,

  It is very possible that your CD may be damaged.  Is it possible to get another copy to try on your machine? Or try this copy on another machine to see if it works or not.
  Also check in control panel--> system--> for you Device Manager make sure that there is no yellow/red icon next to the CD player and it's function correctly.

• After installing itunes on a windows 10, it opens and the game once, then requires a reboot every time

  After you have installed itunes on a new computer windows 10, it will open and play only once, and then requires a restart of the computer before opening again.  Then it will open and play only once, requiring a reboot again

  For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates. Start by missing error MSI.

  The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

  Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

  More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

  Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

• E-mail/password reset for an xbox 360. Windows Live support is me misleading to their moderators, etc. I need some help here!

  I need a password reset on an old e-mail account linked to my xbox 360. (the enamel of related Xbox Live account). However after going around in circles with the xbox and Windows Live support person will help me. I have provided more than enough evidence that its me (old/new address, debit card info AND xbox console ID AND serial number for information). And I am NOT to START a NEW GAMERTAG due the fact that I have spent money under my current gamertag. Now they are misleading me to the moderators of Windows with this problem. So now what?

  E-mail bellsouth.net and its related help/support page has since been purchased, reformatted and dissolved for their new name like ATnT. Their support tech/operators won't help me as well since it is a problem of bellsouth and not an ATnT. But the email is bellsouth.

  I can't do any kind of password reset because I forgot my secret question answer. A mistake in good faith, but one that keeps this issue to be resolved. I have provided a list of answers to him but still no help and I keep getting turned down and rejected.

  Windows answers forums are for technical problems and we do not have any control over the resets password for all Windows, XBOX and Windows LIve accounts.

  You will need to contact Windows Live Support as Kim said.

  If you would please provide details on the game you play?  Also, have you tried to hit F11 and attempt to place the game in Mode full-screen.  In addition, check with the OEM of the game to check if there was an options in the game to use Mode full screen.  I hope that this information is beneficial.

  binaries / wargame - g4wlive.exe; the game can be executed with a modifier executable code please re install the game

  Thank you.

  Hi MaxLamoureux,

  I appreciate your time display. According to my research, Microsoft Gears of War Version 1 & 2 are not compatible with Windows 7. You can check this link to see compatibility information.

  As the game is not compatible with Windows 7, I would ask you to uninstall it and reinstall in compatibility mode.
