    Hello folks,

    I bought G73jh like 1 months ago. But since 2 weeks, when I open my XFire for COD4 Multi, It just locks and i have to reboot the notebook. I was looking for answers for XFire but, even I disabled Firewall even deleted my Antivirus software, no change. Still locks when I login.

    But this day, I was on Facebook with Google Chrome, that locking happened again. Screen is the same, but mouse cursor is not moving, computer is not responding. Do you know what might be causing this problem?

    Waiting your helps, thanks in advance :)

    It's more than likely the Creative Software conflicts. Delete any and all Creative software, update your Realtek drivers from their site.
