    Can't play games. When I try to load some of my games the computer freezes The screen is black. I haven't had this problem before but I have had this problem since updating to newest version. If I turn off protection then my games work with no problems.

    The fix will require a reboot to work properly - could you try re-enabling protection and see if it continues to work?

    Thanks! :)

    Yes the reboot worked. So far so good. If I run into any further problems I'll let you know. Thanks for your help.

    Well I´ve the same problem. I´m using Stardock´s Impulse application for several games, and each time I try to execute a game the computer just freezes and a cold reboot is necessary. Turning off Prevx, and everything works again. The Stardock Impulse application is dependent of MS .net to work, so I suspect the problem maybe has to do with the .net engine.

    The same goes when I´m logging off the user account (Windows XP Pro), and trying to log on my administrator account, everything freezes. Turning off Prevx and the log off/log on process works again.

    Yes, it did correct my issues. The .205 build works well so far.

    Thanks!
