    hi richc46
    no that wouldnt help in any way as clean boot isnt a way 2 diagnose a specific problem. plus its not a software conflict or similar. it doesnt happen willy nilly. it happens once a wk. only on shortcuts that i hav created by going to the shortcut in the games folder n right clicking n send 2 desktop creat shortcut. it doesnt happen to shortcuts that were created by the games at install. thanks 4 the suggestion tho
