I bought a new laptop and i want to play ET on it. After a reinstall (because the game freezed at loadscreen) it got even worse. Now, every time i turn my computer on again, i get this error when loading ET: ET.exe has stopped working.
The only solution is to reinstall and then play. When i turn my laptop off/on the error comes back.
Help. It is getting annoying allready
I have tryed googeling but no fix yet.
(also Live messenger does not work sometimes and every time Vista loads i get this error: xx:xx is an nvalid time! and then i have to end a progress called: gbsv.exe or win.exe)

e: A great tutorial.
2. Run as admin
3. Turn off DEP for ET (google data execution prevention if you don't know what DEP is)
4. Download manual PB update and update: http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloader/download.php?file=1
5. None of these working? Try this:
CTRL+SHIFT+ESC (opens task manager in Vista), select processes and then kill all the processes that you know you won't need while playing et. Several programs can interfere with the functionality of ET.
(6. Check if you have updated ET correctly to 2.60b and if Vista has all its updates. You should also check your graphic card drivers, for if you have outdated opengl drivers you might get errors.)
I'm done. Following one or all of these steps has always made ET work for me in Vista.
