Windows 7 Program keep closing down after loading ?

[shaka]

All

hoping some one can help me out ??

I would do a search but not knowing the tech terms, im at a lose.

I have windows 7 x64 on my mac book pro set up via boot camp and it works like a dream.
The only problem i have sometimes is when I launch a program it loads up and appears on the screen, after about 30 seconds it minimises and I can not get the program back up to open.

I've searched high and low on the net and can't figure it out. BTW i'm no computer pro but know the basics.


Any ideas

It sounds like you're experiencing a frustrating issue with your Windows 7 setup on your MacBook Pro via Boot Camp. The problem of programs minimizing on their own after a short period can be caused by various factors. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve this issue: 1. Check for Malware: Run a full scan with an updated antivirus program to ensure that your system is not infected with any malicious software causing the programs to minimize unexpectedly. 2. Update Graphics Drivers: Outdated or corrupted graphics drivers can sometimes lead to display issues. Update your graphics drivers to the latest version compatible with your hardware. 3. Disable Unnecessary Startup Programs: Some programs may be conflicting with the one you're trying to open. Disable unnecessary startup programs to see if this resolves the issue. 4. Check for Background Processes: Some background processes or services might be interfering with the program you're trying to run. Use Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) to check for any unusual processes. 5. Run SFC Scan: Use the System File Checker tool to scan and repair corrupted system files. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the command sfc /scannow. 6. Adjust Visual Effects: Windows visual effects can sometimes cause issues. Try adjusting the visual effects settings to see if it resolves the problem. Right-click on "Computer" > Properties > Advanced system settings > Performance Settings. 7. Check for Conflicting Software: Some third-party software might conflict with the programs you're trying to run. Try running the programs in a clean boot state to see if the issue persists. 8. Reinstall the Program: If the issue is specific to a particular program, try reinstalling it to see if that resolves the problem. These steps should help you identify and resolve the issue of programs minimizing unexpectedly on your Windows 7 setup. If you encounter any specific error messages or behaviors, providing that information can further help in diagnosing the problem. Let me know if you need more detailed instructions on any of the steps mentioned above!
