Hi pcorrenti,

We need the exact text of your errors in order to be able to say anything about them at all.

Click 'details' in your error message, and tell us what it says there.

Good luck,

Have you checked in device manager to see if there is a conflict?


Savvy

Go To ... start/settings/system/device manager... put the dot in
device types... look down the list at the (+) marks & see if you have a yellow triangle or an exclamation point (!)

i checked the device manager and from what i see there's no conflict. one of the invalid page faults states"this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. gme2000t caused an invalid page fault @module gme2000t.exe @0167:00417dfe" any other programs i install comes up with the same message except it states that the invalid page fault is with like poweresuite,exe whatever i am trying to install. i also come up with this illegal operation when i shut down the computer and restart. i close it and it boots up........................whatsupwiththat

I couldn't find anything at all on this file of yours ( gme2000t.exe).

Its certainly not a Windows file, and it must be one of your installed programs misbehaving.

The first thing would be to determine what program this is exactly, and uninstall it.

Do a search for gme2000t and see to what program it belongs.

Same thing with Powersuite.
