Windows XP freezes

After I log on my account on windows xp, the computer starts to load and then
it freezes....the recent changes I made to the computer was two things; first
I installed the computer game crysis and 2nd I installed a new nvidia driver
for my geforce card, anyways the computer freezes totally so I can't
uninstall or change anything and then I restart using the restart button and
it all happens again......

Re: Windows XP freezes

You would best get your answer in an XP forum.

Re: Windows XP freezes

Ummm No - all I see is a little word XP in the subject and text of this
thread. Don't see Vista at all. If people would copy enough of the
previous post maybe it would be there.

Re: Windows XP freezes

Yes, and the text and subject said XP, so that's where he should go. You
see Gordon, the idea is to pose the question you have in the group that has
the best fit. And again you have deleted more of the thread so we have lost
trail of the facts, haven't we? Now, can we get back to solving problems
please.

Re: Windows XP freezes

Gordon,
I see I owe you an apology. I took another look at the thread and I see
that we both responded to the OP at exactly the same time. I picked up your
response as a response to me. Since I took it as a little blunt, (thinking
it was to me, and not the OP) I responded as I did and it degenerated from
there.

RE: Windows XP freezes

crysis would be the most RAM and Graphics hungry Game out there!
Obviously, your hardware can't handle it.

Hit(tap, tap, tap) F8 at startup and go into Safe mode; uninstall crysis.
I know this is vista newsgroup, but I know of the Game

Re: Windows XP freezes

I gave him some advice Bob, as I have read about the Game when it 1st came out.

Either leave it alone, or, if someone feels like helping them with something
they know about; WHY NOT?
