this isnt happening to me, but a few peoples i know, like my uncle,cousin etc.

i think itsonly on windows XP, but anyway! when they open a game, when its about to goto full screen, it just closes....

like legend of mir(isnt this game that does it but its an example),like when it takes u to the log in screen, it would just close. i think its cus its on 256 colours or something, but on the properties theres a box u can check, saying run in 256colours, but it still does it

any ideas?

-thx rachel x-

Old PC probably. Tell them to check they meet the requirements for the game and to make sure they download all the windows patches (and any hardware drivers).

If this is all goggldeygoop to you then im sorry, I dont know your level of computing knowledge. :D
