GP3 30% race distance 22 lap race p1 lap 22 of 22 +28.000 to M. Hakinnen How can I lose? Corner Game suddenly slows Norton Anitvirus appears on screen "Checking Drives" Hear car screeching off try to switch back to game game crashes Throw computer out of window. I hate computers. 30 minutes wasted due to task scheduler. I think I'll sue microsoft for emotional trauma. AAARRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yours in hell, Chris PS: Outlook misconfigured. Sorry

Hi Chris...unless you really REALLY feel you need all that stuff running in the background, try this. A) get a program called enditall. It will shutdown most of the uneeded programs. Don't worry they will restart next time you boot. B) clik start/run/ type msconfig. choose the start button tab. UNCHECK any item you don't want running. This is a permant(usually) fix and won't take effect until you reboot. But your desktop will load faster because all those little hidden programs aren't tying up your hard drive and cpu as they load. While you may have lots of programs running, all you need to play most games/sims/programs are : systray and windows explorer . Now lets deal with your frustration. You ran a good race...You had FUN. You didn't get to finish it....so you are frustrated....perhaps looking with, to quote Gallagher, a new set of eyes, you'll feel differently. You ran a good race, you had FUN, you didn't get to finish...that means YOU GET TO HAVE FUN AGAIN! Time wasted? Never. Did you get the result you wished? That never happens all the time except in fairy tales and pornos. But if you enjoyed it once...why not again? Hey you may not win,,,you may not be Numero Uno..but you'll probably realize, its the racing itself that is exciting...Racing doesn't care if you are first or fourteenth...Racing only cares about that next car up ahead or that guy pressuring(sp?) you from behind. Racing results were probably only invented to satisfy the newspapers... dave henrie "Chris" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9867m1$dmj$[email hidden]...

Now I see, you must have once had a terrible accident as a child involving an F1 sim, so every time one comes out, your defenses instantly come up!!! Is this true? Nick ymenard wrote:

Quick question for all the smart alek answers: Why don't I just pause task scheduler and save time having to restart the computer, run suspicious software that I first have to find and download everytime I want to play a game? Congratulations on kicking a man when he's down. BTW: I have since won this particular race in my own inimitable style with a pitstop (only driver to) and 10 second lead. And I paused task scheduler and it didn't crash. Chris Now honorary King of Argentina due to his godlike racing genius over taking both Hakkinen and Schumacher and lapping 2 seconds quicker.
