Losing what games? Define "losing". What updates? This is just not enough
information for anyone to help you. Please see these links for what details
you need to include in your next post so you can get the focused help you
want:

Re: Keep losing games after updates

Hi
Sorry about that. Its the games that come with Vista and it is after vista
updates.
Would SP1 solve this problem?
I have an HP Pavilion Media Centre TVm7775

Hope this is better, thanks for your advise

This is marginally better, but we're not there yet. Please remember that we
can't see your computer. With exactly which games are you having trouble
and exactly what happens? If there are error messages, please quote the
exact text. Notice my use of the words "exactly" and "exact". There's a
reason! ;-)

Ditto for the updates. Go to your Windows Update applet in Control Panel and
look at your updates history. See what you're installing and report back.

Re: Keep losing games after updates

Is it possible that you have the games running during the update
process?

What specific games are you having problems with?

Sue, this is the third time I've asked you for details and you refuse to go
to the "Good Post" links and you refuse to give enough information in your
posts. I can't see your computer. You said the problem happened after
updates. I asked you which updates and you haven't answered. Now you ask if
this has anything to do with the graphics card.

I really, really wanted to help you but you're not providing me the details
I need to do so. I'm done.

At this point, have a knowledgeable friend (someone who really is
knowledgeable and not just saying they are) or a computer professional come
and look at your computer.

Good luck,

Malke
