Hi,
I'm having some problems when playing games like Raise of
Nations or Dungeon Siege. A couple of minutes after I
start the game the computer halts and I have to reset. I
have XP pro. The Event viewer/application gives an error
(I used Chris tip from yesterday) and the source is True
Vector Engine. I'm using ZoneAlarm pro (version 3.7.098).
Any solution?
Thank you for the help.

ZoneAlarm is fouling up your game play, Alberto. Try disabling it and see
if the problems don't go away. Remember, ZA keeps running, even if you
"exit" from the Systray icon. You may need to go to All Programs/Startup
and remove it, then restart the system to get it out of the way.
