when i try to run some programs (i.e games, typing program things like that) my computer will not run them i get a message saying that the program has encountered an error and must close. Some of the programs i have been able to install and run the frist time but i had uninstalled them to free up some space and decided to reinstall them and now they won't run.i'm not really good with computers but i hope someone can helpoh and my computers only about 6 months old a dell dimension E510does it say it encountered an error or it PERFORMED an illegal operation? Also, what version of Windows are you running? Do you SHUTDOWN your computer by the start menu shutdown button or the button on the computer? Do you shutdown your computer every night when you go to bed?i have windows XP i don't shut it down every night but when i do its through the shut down button (under the start menu)although my kids have shut it off just by using the button a COUPLE times. the error message says
Empire earth.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.
and i have played empire earth before on my computer before i uninstalled it now that i reinstalled it,it doesn't work
