GameEx stopped working. Black screen.

[mh666]

Hey forum members!

Can anyone please help me.

I've been using gameex in my cabinet for about a month now and just got my emus and everything working nicely.

Last night when i tried to start gameex i only got a black screen. It just hangs and won't start. Task manager says 'not responding'.

I'm also having trouble shutting down after attempting to start gameex.

I backed up my gameex folder and tried reinstalling but that didn't help. I'm stuck and don't know what to do next.

I've attached the log file and gameex.ini.

This can't be good:

Yeah, Tempest that's what i thought. I couldn't figure what was causing it to hang up so i reinstalled windows 7.

I'm glad i had backed up everything but it's still a nightmare having to set up windows and all the drivers and stuff.

Gotta buy a big HD so i can clone my partitions. Just in case.

Now everything's working again...almost.

Damn windows! If i could do this on different OS i would...Linux, hackintosh or something. During this months time i've had trojans, adware and all sorts of problems with M$ software. Now i remember why i switched to linux 10 years ago.

All good now.

I haven't had much in the way of malware or trojan issues. I use the MS Security Essentials and it hasn't failed me yet.

I use it too, but it has become a shell of its former self.

Old, but scary!

Granted if your on a modern day OS, your already better protected, especially when avoiding questionable sites. Work experince taught me the MSE and XP Pro can be bad news, more than a year before XP was sunset!

Then again, there are AV suites that rountinely get praised that I woudn't touch with a ten foot pole.
