Anyone know how to get out of a poxy screen freeze without having to constantly reboot?
Drives me mad. :evil: :evil:2 September, 2006 at 2:01 pm #239901Hiya Bat,
If you mean screen freeze in your browser or in a specific program if you press the
Ctrl Alt Del, buttons at the same time it will bring up the windows task manager window, then you find the program that has frozen in the list under applications, click on it it, then click end task.
This will close down your browser or any other application that is frozen and let you restart it, without having to reboot.
Ps sometimes it takes a while for it to close it.
Hope this helps lass :wink:

I haven’t a clue what it is, I don’t think you need it though! :lol:
It might be difficult to uninstall so try this:
> Start
> Run
Type msconfig
> OK
> Startup
See if it’s in there, if it is uncheck it.
When you restart your pc you’ll get a messege about using selective startup.
Tick ‘Don’t show this again’ and you should be sorted. :wink:4 September, 2006 at 1:57 am #2399084 September, 2006 at 2:31 am #239909^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
