<p>Since the release of <strong>Fear 3,</strong> a lot of users have experienced a <strong>Blue Screen Crash </strong>error on their system whilst playing the game. A Blue Screen error or Stop error as it is sometimes known as is a critical error that only occurs when your computer was about to do something that would do some serious damage to your computer.</p>
<p><span id="more-3871"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes The Fear 3 Blue Screen Of Death Error</span></h3>
<p>A Blue Screen of Death error would usually be caused by your computer about to do something that would seriously damage your system. The error is often caused by hardware issues, but is also the result of having incompatible hardware on your computer as well. These are the common causes of problems for the Fear 3 game:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Your graphics card will not be able to function correctly</li>
<li>Your PC will have errors with its settings inside the registry</li>
<li>Windows will not be able to process the files required to run the game</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;">How To Fix The Fear 3 Blue Screen Of Death Error</span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 1 -</span> Re-Install Fear 3</span></span></h3>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">It is recommended that you re-install Fear 3 because if the game has any infected files or damaged settings then it could cause the game to not work properly and could cause your computer to malfunction. To re-install Fear 3 follow the instructions below:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Click Start</li>
<li>Control Panel</li>
<li>Add/Remove Programs</li>
<li>Select Fear 3 and click Uninstall</li>
<li>Once fully uninstalled restart your computer</li>
<li>Re-install Fear 3</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 2 &#8211; </span>Update Windows</span></h3>
<p>It is recommended that you update Windows with the latest patches and updates because you need all parts of your system to work in complete harmony and to be synchronised. To update Windows follow the instructions below:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Click Start</li>
<li>All Programs</li>
<li>Windows Update</li>
<li>Follow the on-screen wizard</li>
<li>Install all updates</li>
<li>Restart your computer</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 3 -</span> Update The Graphics Drivers On Your PC</span></h3>
<p>The next step is to update the graphics drivers on your computer. These are programs used by Windows to help ensure that it can correctly process the files and options required to help process the advanced graphics that your system needs to run games such as Fear3. Unfortunately, the graphics drivers of your system can become outdated &#8211; leading your computer to become less able to process the settings required to help it run. Updating the graphics drivers should resolve this, and can be done by following these steps:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>Click onto &#8220;Start&#8221; &gt; Run (or press WINKEY + R)</li>
<li>Type &#8220;DxDiag&#8221; into the box</li>
<li>Press Enter</li>
<li>When DXDiag loads, click onto the &#8220;Hardware&#8221; tab</li>
<li>Take a note of the manufacturer of the graphics card</li>
<li>Browse to the manufacturer&#8217;s site &amp; download the latest driver for the card</li>
<li>Try running Fear3 again</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 4 -</span> Clean Out The Registry</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;"><strong><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner</a></strong></span></li>
</ul>
<p>One of the big causes of Fear 3 blue screen of death errors is through the “registry” database of your computer. This is a large database which stores vital information &amp; settings for your PC, and is used continually to help Windows to read the files, settings &amp; options that it needs to run. Although the registry is one of the most important parts of every Windows system, it’s continually causing a large number of problems thanks to the way it will often become corrupted and unreadable. This is the cause behind many Fear 3 blue screen of death errors, and needs to be resolved by using a reliable “<a title="registry cleaner" href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a>” application.</p>
<p>This step is best completed by downloading <strong><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download">Frontline Registry Cleaner</a></strong>, and letting it clean out any of the problems that your system may have inside.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2596 aligncenter" title="crysis2logo0500" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/crysis2logo0500-300x187.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="187" /></a></p>
<p>If <strong>Crysis 2 is crashing</strong> on your PC, it suggests that you have some sort of potential problem with the settings, files or options of the game. The good news is that this game is actually relatively easy to fix, but requires a series of different steps to help it run properly. This tutorial is going to show you 3 ways to stop this game from crashing, which will basically ensure the continued smooth operation of your system.</p>
<p><span id="more-2595"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Why Will Crysis 2 Show Blue Screen Errors?</span></h3>
<p>The blue screen errors you&#8217;re seeing with Crysis 2 are going to be caused by a number of potential problems, which will include the likes of:</p>
<ul>
<blockquote>
<li><em>Your PC will not have the correct drivers to run the game</em></li>
<li><em>Your system will have outdated settings / options</em></li>
<li><em>Windows will have a number of registry errors preventing it from running the game</em></li>
</blockquote>
</ul>
<p>A good tip is that if you are seeing &#8220;blue screen errors&#8221; specifically with this game, it means that your computer could have hardware problems. Fortunately, if you&#8217;re just seeing errors with Crysis2, it means there is just a software problem, which can almost always be fixed.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;">How To Fix Crysis 2 Blue Screen Errors</span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 1 -</span> Re-Install Crysis 2</span></h3>
<p>Crysis 2 is a very advanced game, and as a result it has a lot of very important files &amp; settings that constantly need to be used to help your system run. One of the main problems for this game is that its files will somehow become damaged, making it highly recommended that you re-install the program. This can be done by following these steps:</p>
<ul>
<blockquote>
<li><em>Click &#8220;<strong>Start</strong>&#8220;</em></li>
<li><em>Click &#8220;<strong>Control Panel</strong>&#8220;</em></li>
<li><em>Locate &#8220;<strong>Add / Remove Programs</strong>&#8221; (Windows XP) or &#8220;<strong>Uninstall A Program</strong>&#8221; (Windows 7)</em></li>
<li><em>In the program that launches, find &#8220;Cysis 2&#8243;</em></li>
<li><em>Click &#8220;<strong>Remove</strong>&#8220;</em></li>
<li><em><strong>Restart </strong>Your PC</em></li>
<li><em><strong>Re-Install</strong> Crysis 2 from the disk</em></li>
</blockquote>
</ul>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 2 -</span> Updatel Your Graphics Drivers</span></h3>
<p>If you re-install Crysis 2, and discover that it&#8217;s unable to correctly function, the problem will likely lie with the &#8220;Graphics Drivers&#8221; of your PC. These are important pieces of software which are used to help your computer to process a large number of important settings that are required to help the Crysis 2 application run. In order to resolve any possible problems with the graphics driver of your computer, you should use the steps outlined here:</p>
<blockquote><p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">STEP A &#8211; Identify The Manufacturer Of Your Graphics Card</span></em></p>
<ol>
<li>Click <strong>Start</strong>.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Start</strong> menu, click <strong>Run</strong>.</li>
<li>In the <strong>Open</strong> box, type &#8220;dxdiag&#8221; (without the quotation marks), and then click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
<li>The DirectX Diagnostic Tool opens. Click the <strong>Display</strong> tab.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Display</strong> tab, information about your graphics card is shown in the <strong>Device</strong> section. You can see the name of your card, as well as how much video memory it has.</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">STEP B &#8211; Download The Latest Driver For That Card</span></em></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Click </strong>onto either the &#8220;<a href="http://nvidia.com" target="_blank">NVidia</a>&#8221; or &#8220;<a href="http://ati.com" target="_blank">ATI</a>&#8221; website</li>
<li>Find their &#8220;<strong>downloads</strong>&#8221; section</li>
<li><strong>Click</strong> the card that you have</li>
<li><strong>Download </strong>&amp; install the driver</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 3 -</span> Clean Out The Registry</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner</a></strong></li>
</ul>
<p>The &#8220;registry&#8221; is basically a large database where all the files &amp; settings for your software is kept. Although this part of your PC is widely considered to be one of the most important elements of the entire Windows system, it&#8217;s continually causing a large number of problems thanks to its files &amp; settings becoming corrupted. We&#8217;ve found that this problem is one of the biggest reasons why Crysis 2 will crash, and as a result it&#8217;s recommended that you use a &#8220;<span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span>&#8221; tool to fix the potential errors it may have.</p>
<p>We currently recommend a tool called <strong><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download">Frontline Registry Cleaner</a></strong> for this job. This is by far the most reliable &amp; effective <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span> on the Internet, and is being downloaded by around 10,000 people each week. This tool costs $29.99, but if it finds over 400 errors, it&#8217;s an investment we think should be made.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="/go/driverfindertopdl"><img class="size-full wp-image-2489 aligncenter" title="resolution" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/resolution.jpg" alt="" width="346" height="194" /></a></p>
<p>If your <strong>screen resolution is distorted</strong>, it&#8217;s generally the case that you will have some sort of problem with the settings of your system. Not many people know this, but there are a number of &#8220;resolution&#8221; settings that can be the cause of this problem, as well as the possibility of having a larger number of potential issues inside your PC. This tutorial is going to outline what problems your PC may likely be facing, and then work to resolve them in the best way possible for you.</p>
<p><span id="more-2488"></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes Distorted Screen Resolution?</span></strong></p>
<p>The biggest cause of problems for the distorted screen resolution is actually the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">graphics driver</span> of your PC. The &#8220;graphics driver&#8221; is basically a piece of software that connects the output features of Windows with the actual graphics card (hardware) of your PC; and is consequently one of the most important parts of the entire Windows system. Although this is a common issue, there are other problems that include the likes of:</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Your PC does not have sufficient software</span> capability to run intense graphics</em></li>
<li><em>Your system has some sort of <span style="text-decoration: underline;">problem with the settings</span> of Windows</em></li>
<li><em>Windows is unable to process the files / <span style="text-decoration: underline;">driver settings</span> required to run the graphics</em></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>The problem you&#8217;re experiencing should therefore be resolved by using a series of steps to fix the issues that Windows will have inside. This means that if you&#8217;re looking to use the steps outlined on this page, you have to be able to repair any of the potential problems they have may have with the tools that are available.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;">How To Fix Faulty Screen Resolution Settings</span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 1 -</span> Set The Resolution Correctly On Your System</span></h3>
<p>The first step is to set the resolution of your PC correctly. This is a Windows process, and requires the use of the centralized &#8220;Display Properties&#8221; feature of your system. Here&#8217;s how:</p>
<ol>
<blockquote>
<li><em>Click onto the desktop of your PC</em></li>
<li><em>Right-click on the desktop and select &#8220;Properties&#8221; (XP) / &#8220;Screen Resolution&#8221; (Win7)</em></li>
<li><em>This will bring up the Properties menu, where you should select &#8220;Settings&#8221;</em></li>
<li><em>Upon selecting &#8220;Settings&#8221;, you will then have to make sure the resolution is the highest possible</em></li>
</blockquote>
</ol>
<p>The reason why this is important is because Windows uses the &#8220;System Resolution&#8221; to determine how large / small various different icons should be. The smaller the resolution, the larger the icons &amp; elements of the resolution &#8211; and it&#8217;s therefore important that you&#8217;re able to make the resolution as high as possible. A tip here is that most monitors will have a certain &#8220;limit&#8221; of resolution, which you need to make sure that you set your properties to in order to repair it.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 2 -</span> Ensure You Have No Viruses</span></h3>
<p>The next step is to make sure you have no viruses on your PC. These are extremely damaging infections, which have been created to try and get you to either buy products, or cause so much trouble that you end up just using some other form of system to help repair them. The good news is that you can remove all the viruses that will cause viruses by <strong><a href="/go/xoftspy" target="_blank">downloading &amp; running XoftSpy</a></strong> &#8211; a leading anti-spyware application that&#8217;s very good at fixing the infections which often cause damaged resolution settings.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Step 3 -</span> Update The Driver By Using This Driver Update Tool</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="/go/driverfindertopdl"><strong>Download This Driver Update Program</strong></a></li>
</ul>
<p>If you find that you still cannot see the correct resolution in Windows after you&#8217;ve tried using the steps above, it&#8217;s recommended you use a &#8220;driver update&#8221; program. Although these cost a small fee, they are brilliant for fixing all this type of driver problem on the Windows system, as they are able to scan through your PC and update any of the outdated drivers that your system may have. We have found that a program called &#8220;<a href="/go/driverfinder">Driver Finder Pro</a>&#8221; is the best for fixing the problem with the screen resolution problems.</p>
<p>You can see the software here:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="/go/driverfindertopdl"><img class="aligncenter" title="driverfinder" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/driverfinder1.jpg" alt="" width="346" height="251" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1704" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 139px"><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img class="size-full wp-image-1704    " title="fltmgr.sys Error" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/fltmgr.png" alt="" width="129" height="46" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">fltmgr.sys Error</p></div>
<p><strong>FltMgr.sys</strong> is a &#8220;system&#8221; file used by Windows to help control various aspects of your hard drives &amp; files. Its official name is the <em>&#8220;Microsoft Filesystem Filter Manager&#8221; </em>and its main duty in the operating system is make sure that the data written to the hard drive is correct and not corrupted. The fltmgr.sys error is caused when Windows cannot read or process files that are on the hard drive, usually because the File System Manager is damaged or unreadable. If this is the case, it can cause hard drives to stop working and the blue screen to appear.</p>
<p><span id="more-1611"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes FltMgr.sys Errors?</span></h3>
<p>The cause of the fltmgr.sys errors are mainly down to the file being corrupted or unreadable. If the file is corrupted, you will receive this error continuously&#8230;. But the most common cause of this error is a temporary problem which will a simple restart of your PC will fix. You can follow the steps below to fix the error you&#8217;re seeing:</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;">How To Fix FltMgr.sys Errors</span></h2>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Restart Your PC</span></h3>
<p>It may seem a simple step, but it can be the case that the File System Manager was not loaded properly when the system booted up. This could have been because of a new update causing the file to skip its loading process, or it could have just been a one off error. In any case, if you have any doubts, you should just restart your PC. This will clear the system&#8217;s RAM and provide another chance for it to boot up cleanly. If this doesn&#8217;t occur, carry on to step 2.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Check All Hardware And Hard Drives Are Fully Functional</span></h3>
<p>If the hard drives are not connected properly in your system, then this is what could be causing the fltmgr.sys file to not load as it should. It could also mean, if the C drive is connected but others aren&#8217;t, that the fltmgr.sys file cannot read the other hard drives correctly and therefore cause the fltmgr.sys blue screen.</p>
<p>You should always be aware of any strange sounds coming from your system, as the hard drive and the fans are the only moving parts. If there is a strange noise, then it could indicate something is wrong with your hard drive. Locate the noise, and if it is the hard drive, make sure you pin point which one it is and test it. You should also check your cabling as a loose cable can cause the hard drive to become unreadable.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 3 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Clean The Registry</span></h3>

<p>The &#8216;registry&#8217; is a central database for the Windows system, where vital files, settings &amp; options are all stored for your PC. This central database is what Windows uses to help it run as smoothly and quickly as possible &#8211; but is also a big cause of errors. Although every Windows system &amp; software uses the registry each time you use your computer, the fact is that this database often gets damaged &#8211; leading your PC to take longer to run the processes it needs, and use the files it requires. If you&#8217;ve tried the above two steps and they have not done anything, then it&#8217;s strongly advised that you clean out the registry of your system by using a &#8220;<span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span>&#8221; tool to ensure all the parts of it are working 100% correctly. You can download our recommended <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span> from the bottom of this page.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 4 &#8211; </span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Repair Windows</span></h3>
<p>If you are receiving this error constantly, and have tried all the above solutions, it could well be that your system is actually corrupted. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as a power failure during an update or a virus that has corrupted files on your PC.</p>
<p>A repair of Windows is generally a good idea if you feel that the fltmgr.sys file is corrupt. It will replace the file with a fresh one and also provide a smoother system to operate with. You will need to use your Windows CD that came with your system to repair your system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_559" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-559" title="c000021a" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/c000021a1-300x38.png" alt="" width="300" height="38" /><p class="wp-caption-text">C000021a Blue Screen Error</p></div>
<p>The <strong>c000021a</strong> blue screen error is displayed when Windows loads or shuts down. This error is caused by a failure to load an essential Windows component which is required in the login process of your PC. Using a Windows NT, Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP computer will show this error on a blue screen like the one detailed above.</p>
<p>The error that is displayed is typically like this:</p>
<blockquote><p>STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}<br />
The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000034 (0&#215;00000000 0&#215;0000000)<br />
The system has been shutdown.</p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-557"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes The Stop: c000021a Error?</span></h3>
<p>The c000021a {Fatal System Failure} blue screen error is caused when the Windows kernel detects that either Winlogon.exe or Crss.exe has failed to load or initiate. These are essential processes for the smooth operation of Windows and are used mainly when your computer tries to log you in or attempts to log off. When the Windows kernel identifies this error, it has to &#8220;stop&#8221; your system from running, which is what causes the error.</p>
<p>Typical causes of this error include, an outdated set of Windows applications, a Service Pack installation failed, you have incompatible 3rd party software on your PC or a virus has corrupted the applications that Windows needs to load.</p>
<h2>How To Resolve The STOP: c000021a Error</h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 &#8211; Identify The Cause Of The Problem</span></h3>
<p>In order to begin fixing this problem, you first need to identify the cause of the issue. This is done by using the &#8220;Dr Watson&#8221; program in Windows, which is an inbuilt Windows debugging application. You should run Dr Watson, and it will tell you what&#8217;s causing the c000021a error. Here&#8217;s how to do it:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1) Click Start &gt; Run (search &#8220;Run&#8221; in Vista &amp; Win7)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">2) Type <strong>DrWtsn32.exe -l</strong> into the box that appears</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">3) Press Enter</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">4) Next, <strong>type DrWtsn32.exe &amp; Press Enter</strong> to run the application</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">5) Select the following check-boxes inside the application:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Append to Existing Log File</strong></li>
<li><strong>Visual Notification</strong></li>
<li><strong>Create Crash Dump File</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">6) When you next see the STOP: c000021a error, load run and type DrWtsn32.exe &amp; hit enter</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">7) Load up the error logs that Dr Watson has, and see what the cause of the problem was</p>
<p>This will help you see what exactly caused the problem.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 &#8211; Change The Gina.dll File Settings</span></h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re getting errors caused by Winlogon.exe, the most likely cause is the Gina.dll file, which is a file created to help with various graphical interfaces of Windows. This file is continually being used by your computer to help with opening up a series of different files and settings that programs need to run&#8230; but because the file is changeable by other programs, it can often become corrupted or damaged.</p>
<p>If you have recently installed any third party software or drivers, you need to remove them completely from your system. The likelihood is that these installations changed the Gina.dll settings and are causing your PC to become confused when it wants to open a file. If you require the program or driver for your PC to run, you should look for an updated version and try that.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 3 &#8211; Clean The Registry With A &#8220;<span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span>&#8221;</span></h3>
<p>- <a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner</a></p>
<p>The registry is a big database inside the Windows system which stores information and settings for your PC. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s also one of the biggest causes of errors for the Windows system as it often becomes corrupted and damaged. This can cause the STOP: c000021a error and in order to rule out the possibility of this being an issue, you should download and run a <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_492" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-492" title="igxpdx32.dll" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/igxpdx32.dll_-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">igxpdx32.dll Error</p></div>
<p><strong>igxpdx32.dll </strong>is a file that&#8217;s used by the Intel Video Processing driver, typically found on many integrated graphics cards in laptops. Because this file is such an important part of the Windows system, any damage or problems it has cause the blue screen error, resulting in the restarting of your PC &amp; the loss of work and unsaved games.</p>
<p><span id="more-491"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes The igxpdx32.dll Error?</span></h3>
<p>The typical error message displayed by a defective igxpdx32.dll file is the following:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>“igxpdx32.dll caused PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA”</em></p></blockquote>
<p>This error is typically shown when you either start Windows or want to play a game and is normally caused by a series of serious errors inside your system, which include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Outdated video driver files</li>
<li>Corrupted igxpdx32.dll file</li>
<li>Problem with software</li>
<li>Virus infection</li>
<li>Registry problems</li>
</ul>
<p>In order to fix this error, you should use the methods below. Getting your computer to run faster and more reliably is a case of fixing the issues that cause the igxpdx32.dll in the first place and here&#8217;s the best way to do that:</p>
<h2>How To Fix The igxpdx32.dll Errors</h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method 1 &#8211; Reinstall The Program That&#8217;s Causing The Error</span></h3>
<p>If you are seeing this error from a particular program or game, then it&#8217;s advisable that you reinstall this particular application to see if it will make your computer more able to process the file it needs. To do this, you first need to completely uninstall the program from your PC by clicking on <strong>Start &gt; Control Panel &gt; Add / Remove Programs</strong>. In here, you&#8217;ll see a list of your installed programs and will be able to select the program that&#8217;s causing the error and click <strong>Uninstall</strong>.</p>
<p>This will remove the program from your PC, to which you should then restart your system. After you&#8217;ve done that, you should then either run the installation CD or download a new version of the installer from the Internet and install a new copy of the program onto your system. This will typically rewrite igxpdx32.dll and should allow Windows to read it, curing the error it sometimes shows.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method 2 &#8211; Update Your Video Driver</span></h3>
<p>One of the main causes of the igxpdx32.dll error is that your video driver is either outdated, corrupted or not compatible with a piece of software on your PC. In order to prevent the errors that you&#8217;re seeing, you should look to update your video driver by browsing to either the manufacturer of your graphics card or your computer.</p>
<p>If you have a pre-built computer from a company such as <a href="http://dell.com" target="_blank">Dell</a>, <a href="http://hp.com" target="_blank">HP</a>, <a href="http://compaq.com">Compaq</a> or <a href="http://asus.com" target="_blank">Asus</a>, then you you should click onto their respective websites, locate the video driver for your particular machine and then use that on your system. However, if you have a PC with a separate graphics card inside, you should open the graphics card manufacturer&#8217;s website and then download the driver from there. You should either have an <a href="http://ati.amd.com" target="_blank">Ati</a> or an <a href="http://nvidia.com" target="_blank">Nvidia</a> graphics card if this is the case.</p>
<p>After you&#8217;ve downloaded the various updated driver installers, you should then run them and they will guide you through the update process. This is a really simple task if you just follow the on-screen instructions.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method 3 &#8211; Reinstall The Driver</span></h3>
<p>You can also choose to reinstall your video driver. To do this, you should follow this plan:</p>
<p>1) Restart your PC</p>
<p>2) Press F8 continuously before Windows starts to load</p>
<p>3) When options appear, select &#8220;Safe Mode&#8221;</p>
<p>4) When Windows has loaded, click Start &gt; Control Panel &gt; Device Manager</p>
<p>5) Locate your video card, right-click and press &#8220;Uninstall&#8221;</p>
<p>6) Restart your PC normally</p>
<p>7) When prompted to install a new video driver, proceed and let Windows install it</p>
<p>8) Restart again</p>
<p>9) Try using your programs or games</p>
<p>This will rid your PC of the old igxpdx32.dll file and then replace it with a new file. Sometimes, this file can become damaged and corrupted, and lead your computer to run slowly and with the blue screen error. If this step does not work, try the next methods:</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method 4 </span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">- Clean Out Viruses</span></h3>
<p>- <a href="/go/xoftspy">Download This Virus Scanner</a></p>
<p>Antivirus programs are software tools which scan through your PC and remove any of the viruses or malware infections that are on your system. It&#8217;s often the case that viruses will infect various DLL files on your computer and then cause them to be unreadable to your PC. To ensure this is not happening on your computer, you should try using an antivirus program to scan through your system and remove any of the infections that cause all these errors. You can download our recommended antivirus program from the link above, but there are a large variety of programs available.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Method 5 &#8211; Clean The Registry</span></h3>
<p>- <a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner</a></p>
<p>The &#8216;registry&#8217; is a big database inside Windows which keeps a large list of references for the DLL files on your system. This central database is where Windows keeps a list of the DLL file locations for your computer, and is where your system looks each time it wants to use a dll file such as igxpdx32.dll. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s prone to becoming damaged and corrupted and is constantly being unable to read the files and references that it needs to open the files that it wants. This is a major problem that causes a lot of damage to many different parts of your system. Running a registry scan will remove all the damaged references inside the registry, allowing it to run as quickly and smoothly as possible. You can download our recommended <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span> below:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The black screen error which appears when Windows 7 boots up is incredibly annoying and common on this system. Unfortunately, many people are now reporting the &#8220;Black Screen Of Death&#8221; and are looking for a way to fix it. This tutorial will show you the best ways to fix this error for good:</p>
<p><span id="more-384"></span></p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Causes The Windows 7 Black Screen Error After Login?</span></h2>
<p>There are a variety of suspected causes of this problem, notably a damaged registry key and video driver errors. The problem is that since Windows 7 has a series of enhanced graphics features, many of the new settings for the system can often cause conflict and make your PC do some very strange things. The &#8220;black screen&#8221; error that you&#8217;re seeing is actually Windows&#8217; response to either having a damaged setting or an incompatible video driver.</p>
<p>The &#8220;black screen of death&#8221; will show up after you login to Windows 7. This means that the problem is not a hardware issue as you should be able to see the login screen on your monitor. This means that there is a software problem at work, and to fix your system we need to fix the error that&#8217;s causing the black screen.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Possible Solutions To The &#8220;Black Screen Of Death&#8221; Error</span></h2>
<h3 style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 &#8211; Download The &#8220;Prevx Patch&#8221;</span></h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Just after the release of Windows 7 in November 2009, a company called <a href="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/registry-issues/patch-fix-the-black-screen-of-death-on-windows-7/">Prevx released a patch</a> containing a solution that they thought would work to resolve this error. Although this patch was well received, many people claimed it did not work very well, but many did. The first step to getting your PC to work is to try this patch, which has worked for some people:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1) <strong>Restart</strong> your PC</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">2) <strong>Logon</strong> and wait for the black screen to appear</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">3) Make sure your PC should be able to <strong>connect to the internet</strong> (black screen does not appear to affect this)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">4) Press the <strong>CTRL, ALT and DEL</strong> keys simultaneously</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">5) When prompted, Click <strong>Start Task Manager</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">6) In Task Manager Click on the <strong>Application Tab</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">7) Next Click <strong>New Task</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">8 ) Now enter the command:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe&#8221; &#8220;http://info.prevx.com/download.asp?GRAB=BLACKSCREENFIX&#8221;</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Note</span> this command assumes that you are using internet explorer as your browser, if not substitute your browser path and file details for those of iexplore.exe or use the Browser option of Task manager to locate it.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">9) <strong>Click OK </strong>and your browser should start up and begin the download process</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">10) When prompted for the download Click <strong>&#8220;Run&#8221;</strong>, the black screen fix program will download and run to automatically fix the issue.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">11) Now<strong> restart your PC </strong>and the black screen problem will hopefully be gone.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">This patch has become extremely popular thanks to the wide-spread impact of the black screen error. However, it&#8217;s really hit-and-miss as to whether it will work to fix your PC or not. You should try it first because it can only do good to fix your system.</p>
<h3 style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 &#8211; Start In &#8220;Low Resolution Mode&#8221;</span></h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1) Reboot your PC</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">2) Press F8 Continuously before Windows loads</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">3) On the options screen, use the arrow keys to enable &#8220;Enable low-resolution video (640×480)&#8221;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">4) Log onto your PC and see if it&#8217;s fixed the problem</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">If you can see your desktop, there&#8217;s a problem with your video adapter. Try updating your video adapter driver. To do this, you should browse to the graphics card&#8217;s manufacturer website and then download the latest driver they have posted on there. This will replace your current driver and should stop the error for good.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">If this does not work, try Step 3:</p>
<h3 style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 3 &#8211; Start Your PC In Safe Mode &amp; Disable Video Adapter </span></h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The video adapter is basically your monitor&#8230; and this step  means that you should try and disable the drivers that your computer is using for this piece of hardware. If disabling the video adapter makes the problem go away, then you should just be able to replace your video adapter to repair the problem.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1) Restart your PC</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_242" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><a href="/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img class="size-full wp-image-242" title="quicklook-cache" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/quicklook-cache.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">0x0000007e Blue Screen Error</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">The 0x0000007e error is one of the most annoying and common blue screen errors that can affect Windows computers. It strikes at random times and can cause serious damage to your computer system. This tutorial will show you how to fix the 0x0000007e blue screen error.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-241"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Is The 0x0000007e Error?</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">The 0x0000007e error is Windows&#8217; way of telling you that an error occurred on the system but it did not know what the error was. So in effect, the error code 0x0000007e is for any error that your computer has but cannot identify.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This error can appear randomly and for a number of different reasons. One of the biggest issues with the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">0x0000007e error</span> is that since it is not a specific problem on your system, there are many causes and many potential fixes. Fortunately, we&#8217;ve managed to work all the potential fixes into a simple method you can sue to make this error stop appearing. Here&#8217;s what to do:</p>
<h2 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">How To Fix The 0x0000007e Error</span></h2>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 &#8211; </span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Make Sure You Have Enough Hard Drive Space</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Sometimes, computers can run out of hard drive space and end up saving their important files &amp; settings in the wrong places. This causes them to become damaged and prevents Windows from being able to open them. This can cause the 0x0000007e error and to fix it, you just need to make sure that you have enough hard drive space on your PC. The typical size of a hard dive for Windows is around 80Gb.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Clean Out Any Viruses That Are On Your PC</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Viruses can cause this error very easily. They install themselves on your PC and then proceed to change files and settings to their own benefit. This means that if Windows tries to use these files and cannot, it will be faced with an error which will stop your PC in its tracks. To prevent this, you should <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/xoftspy"><strong>download an antivirus tool</strong></a> and then let it scan through all of your PC. It will find and remove the viruses that could cause problems in there which could stop the 0x0000007e error.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 3 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Update Your Bios</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">The &#8220;BIOS&#8221; is the loader software that your computer uses to link all your hardware together. When you load up your PC and see the black screen and white text &#8211; that&#8217;s the BIOS showing you all the specifications of your computer. The BIOS is like a really dumbed-down operating system which is designed to help your PC actually boot up and turn on. This can cause your PC to show the <strong>0x0000007e blue screen of death error</strong> by having outdated settings and files. You should talk to your computer technician or hardware manufacturer about updating the BIOS, as it can be a tricky thing to do.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 4 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Update Your Drivers</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">The drivers of a PC are the programs that link the hardware of your computer into Windows. Whenever you add <em>any</em> new hardware to your PC, Windows does not know how to use it unless it has a driver to tell it what to do. Drivers are common and updated frequently&#8230; and it happens that one of the biggest causes of the 0x0000007e error is that there are outdated or corrupted drivers on your PC. You should check with your hardware suppliers&#8217; websites to see if you have the latest drivers for your specific system.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 5 -</span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> Clean Out The Registry Of Windows</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><strong>Download This <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span></strong></a></li>
</ul>
<p>Windows has a central core which is known as the &#8216;registry&#8217;. This is a database which stores the system files, settings and options for your PC. The registry is one of the most important parts of Windows but can also cause the 0x0000007e error. The reason why this database causes this error is because it&#8217;s constantly being accessed by your PC. Every time you use Windows, it needs to open the registry 100&#8242;s of times to get the settings out of it. However, it often uses too many files from the registry, making it confused and leading it to save many of them in the wrong way. This causes your PC to have a series of corrupt settings which can cause the blue screen. To fix this, you should <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download">download this registry cleaner</a> and let it scan your PC. It will remove any errors that might be causing the problems on your PC.</p>
