winXP -alt-tab lockup fix for pc games

[oldman]

I was playing red faction1 and noticed how the screen locks up if you try and alt-tab out of the game.

After abit of googling ,i found this great little program that will save u having to reboot your computer,if the game freezes andlocks your computer.

Code: Select all

it works in two diffrent ways ,either auto shutdown of the offending program (via a hotkey)or u can bring up a kill button(a little skull and crossbones icon) and click on any program u want to kill.


It's very useful for winxp users.
EDIT UPDATE:
This program ,while useful for some games,doesn't work for very game that freezes on you.
