    A new day and yet a new mistake for me.

    i installed a program called TuneXP 1.5 and tried to tune my laptop to boot faster which it did. Now i got another problem, i cant play Rappelz a MMORPG i used to play. Each time i open it my computer re-boots. I tried other less demanding games and they work, but i used to be able to play this game before i mseed up in this tuning program.

    http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=3830 Here are the things u can do in the program and i just took this dues advice and now i cannot play anymore. I dont remember my old settings in the program as well.

    Anyway anyone have any idea why my laptop just restarts now when i try to play?

    I dont think tunexp would mess ur computer up like that, but you can change the settings back to how they were(by doing the opposite of what you did already) and then you can try updating your drivers(?).

    come to think of it, i also just installed the newest driver for the X3100 XP.

    the 14.34 drivers. Maybe i gotta go back to 14.33 again

    yeah, try rolling back the driver and see if that helps. Also you might wanna check to see if there are any new patches for your games.

    +1, I was just thinking of that lol. Gary made a small application that does the faster boot thing that TuneXP does. TuneXP is outdated and most of its tweaks aren't beneficial.
