| | Re: Vista Reliability Scores ![]() So yea... All them crashes is basically just hl2.exe. Everytime I close Counter Strike Source, it stops working. It only happens with this hl2.exe based game. Half Life 2 doesn't do it, or anything else, just CSS, so it must be one of the parameters I have in my .cfg, just I can't be bothered going through it all. |

| | Re: Vista Reliability Scores If you have typically had errors in the past, and now have a relatively stable system, you can easily 'reset' the scores - although this is not technically what you *should* do. However,r for those interested, details below. Some background - I have been running Vista x64 for a little over 2 months - and have been trying out programs left and right, as well as OCing my system, testing stability, etc. This has led to overall low reliability scores for me, so now that I Have reinstalled and fixed the 2 remaining issues I had with my OC and stability, I wanted a quick and easy way to 'start from scratch' without having to reinstall my OS again. I search the Internet and found a post by a MVP that detailed how to go about resetting the Reliability index. I'll quote it here for ease.

One of the biggest problems when troubleshooting system problems is determining what happened and what caused it to happen. Reliability Monitor gives you a day to day analysis of application and driver installations, records failures in applications, hardware, and the operating system. Reliability Monitor will be valuable when troubleshooting problems because it allows you to quickly see changes even if the user is not aware of them. The Reliability Analysis Component (RAC) calculates a stability index over a period of time and tracks changes that are likely to affect stability. It displays this information in the Stability Chart. This chart contains information that goes back to the time when Vista was last installed. If you still want to reset this important information, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\RAC Folder. There are 2 sub-folders named Published Data and State Data. Copy these 2 sub-folders somewhere safe and then delete the contents of the 2 folders. The Reliability Monitor will show as empty until it has checked the system which happens every 24 hours. If you decide that you want the information back, just copy the 2 folders you saved back to their original locations. Brink - tutorial? |

| | Re: Vista Reliability Scores Have no clue if I have it correct. Vista really has been rock solid after my fight with the video card. I just connected my sat dish to wintv 1600 and it appears it work fine still playing with that. But remember all I use on capture card is capture it stays on one channel. All the errors have to do with installs of updates and improper shut downs. If there were no updates it would be a straight line. Thanks for all the help Last edited by fireman604; 09-05-2008 at 08:48 PM.. Reason: added reason for all the errors |
