I have been having this problem for a while now and it is getting annoying
now. 3 months ago I built a new computer, the aim being windows 7 ready.
When I am playing a game it sometimes closes with no warning and I get the
following in the event log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source:
Event Category: None
Event ID: 0
Date: 16/02/2010
Time: 12:05:22
User: N/A

files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the

and

Event Type: Error

Event Category: None

I was wondering if it was a corruption of the registry but I have just got
this error on a new install. There is a possibility that there might be a
problem with the mobo but that is unconfirmed at the moment. The game in
question, this time, is Mafia, but it has happened on other games.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to what is causing the error? Could it be
related to a graphics problem that I have been having for which I have been
advised is a power supply issue. I have just replaced the PSU with a Corsair
vx550w.

Hi Andrew.

dxdiag shows no problems and the event viewer reports below are the only
ones relating to this problem.

Just so you know not to hold your breath for a reply from Andrew. If he
follows up, it'll be the first time I've ever seen it. Hopefully someone
else can step in with help on your problem.
