when i start up my system gameex loads but just sits on the task bar, i need to select it with the mouse or alt-tab to bring it up. it used to start up fine. any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

YES! You more than likely have other programs starting up that are stealing focus from gameex at start. You may want to look into disabling some tray apps by running MSCONFIG.

Or... create a timer that will load gameex after X amount of seconds, thus giving time for your PC to fully boot.
