best way to solve problem is
FORMAT SYSTEM DRIVE and reinstall windows -after it: don't forget to make "safe point" //i don't know how to call this in english i have slovak windows =) press F1 and choose fifth pointer from up -> -> -> -> -> and restore it often!!!

System restore point is what you're talking about there in the English version.

I don't like system restore points... They still kind of messy...
Go to 'System Properties' >> Advanced Under Startup and Recovery, click on 'Settings' button. There is a checkbox for Automatic restart, so uncheck it. I believe that you have driver; problem, so I would recommend to update all drivers. Also check Event View. (I’m not sure if Home edition has it) |

That might do it.
Why would you downgrade video driver? (if I'm not mistaken) |

Well, I got a game "FlatOut" and it only worked on the 61.77
When I finish it, I'll upgrade again. Maybe U know a way how to make it work on newer drivers? :blink: P.S. Got "Painkiller: BooH", it works slow, if I upgrade the driver - would it work better??? :blink: |
