    Angelfire does not allow direct linking
    from offsite, non-Angelfire pages,
    to files hosted on Angelfire.

    This practice of 'remote linking' reduces
    our ability to serve out the homepages
    of our members quickly and efficiently.

    More info here.

    I get that when I click on your screen link.

    Check your device manager to see if all your computer components are operating correctly. You also have a lot of background processes running, it seems, plus two firewalls. Zonealarm and Panda. A lot of wasted resources Well, check your hardware and let me know if it shows anything. Also check the event viewer, it'll give a more detailed list of what happened.

    Panda is a antivirus and zone alarm is my firewall. How do I check my hardware profile?

    Well, panda also offers a firewall, I forgot about the antivirus Anyway, start > right-click my computer > properties > hardware > device manager.

    Actually which ones do you suspect of failing?

    Ok, do this to find out what device failed. I didn't read the error correctly. Since windows recovered the device, it shouldn't show up in the device manager as having any errors.

    Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Administrative tools > Event Viewer > Application. Then check the system.

    It looks like you are trying to go online in the game. You need to manually configure ZoneAlarm ahead of time to allow the program have internet access.

    That won't crash the game/system though, and not all games need to access the internet to play. I know blackhawk doesn't since I've played it

    I started the game again and checked for new errors and no errors were added there. So what do I do contact vaio for support?
