Sudden Programm Stop
Ive had this problem for a few weeks now and can´t work out what´s going on.
Apps and Games just suddenly stop, no crash screen warning etc, nothing! the programms just stop and I´m back at the normal windows desktop, it appears to happen randomly.
Ive looked int he event viewer and there are no errors present.
Ive tried the newest drivers, older drivers and not so old drivers.
Ive looked for similar errors at software forums, no joy.
Any ideas?
