When called, my game crashes or closes.

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with skype, whenever my voice-chat partner, adds a friend to the conversation, the video game I am playing at that moment, freezes for a few seconds, and after the freezing time, the skype window pops out showing all the people, in that conversation.
The worst is, when I am playing a game, and when my friend sends me a chat request, making my mouse cursor not moving, and stuck, in the skype chat options ( acept, refuse, acept w/ video )...
Leaving me with no other choice, than to click on that window where my cursor is blocked on, making my game closing.
Please tell me a solution to this annoying problem, I know I can put myself as busy, and that wont happen, but there is some important contacts I have in skype, and I want to know, whenever they send me a message.

My issue is not as severe but still very anoyying.  When running a full screen game, and a call comes in (i have skype set to auto answer) it forces the game into windowed mode.  This is unacceptable, but judging from the age of this thread and number of replies on this topic the skype admins dont care about the issue.

  • Upgraded Computer Routinely Crashes when playing Video games

    I had an "HP Pavilion HPE-150f Desktop PC" for a few years, but about a year and a half ago, I upgraded the graphics card and the power supply. My new power supply was a Corsair TX 650, and my new graphics card was an
    ATI Radeon HD6970 Sapphire. Everything went fine until about a month ago (so I had about a year of smooth sailing with this setup). 
    Usually after 5-10 mins of playing any video game, my computer starts getting hic-hupc (visual and audio lag, as well as input lag), and crashes soon after.
    This problem tends to happen most when playing video games, but it also happens at random times when I am not doing anything demanding on my computer.
    I get short bits of lag (visual, and sound lag). It starts up at distanced intrevals, but slowly gets more frequent. Eventually, the computer either freezes, or I get a blue screen.
    I have cleaned up the dust in my computer numerous times. It didn't really help.
    I have updated drivers after doing a full system restore on my computer (along with updating other windows related things), that did not help either.
    I thought getting the drivers updated had solved my problem, but when I was playing a video game today I ran into the same issue. Which video game it is is not really a detail, since this happens with almost all games.
    I had originally thought this was related to CPU temperatures, but I installed a program that monitors that and everything was within the 40-50 degree range. I'm told this is normal from my friends who get higher temperatures and yet do not run into this problem. 
    I'm on windows 7.
    I will provide more info if needed. This problem has been ongoing for a few months now.
    TL;DR:
    Computer randomly starts lagging-up/freezing. I sometimes get a blue screen and I sometimes don't (meaning I have to restart the machine myself). 
    Problem happens more often when I am gaming, but it can also happen randomly at any given time.
    Thanks in advance to any who can help.
    In the next post I will give some info about my machine.

    Here is the info of what I have:
    1. Intel Core I7 (It also says: "860 @2.80GHz 2.80Hz" in the ControlPanel->System and Security -> System tab)
    2. ATI Radeon HD6970 Sapphire
    3. Win7 64bit
    4. Driver for Catalyst: Version 12.104.0.0 (for the GPU)
    5. Corsair TX 650
    6. 8.00 GB of RAM
    7. i) The computer did come with the OS (win7 64bit), but it wasn't updated. To update it, I went to the search bar in the START menu and typed something along the lines of "Windows update", which took me to a seperate window, where I could let the computer update itself.
       ii) The original product did not have the Power Supply it currently has, or The graphics card it currently has. I bought those two myself to modify the machine.
    The original product was a "HP Pavilion HPE-150f Desktop PC". I believe that is the name for it. The System tab in control panel simply says "HPE-150f"
    8. Monitor resolution 1920x1080, connected by DVI connector.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
    I also used a program called Speccy, which gives you info about your computer. 
    About my BIOS, Speccy said:
    Brand:    American Megatrends Inc.
    Version: 5.15
    Date:     25/06/2010
    So I went to the following site and updated my BIOS:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=ca&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=4120554&softw...
    It didn't help anything, I still get the exact same crashing.
    Lastly, here is an image of the blue screen I am getting:
    I also made a thread on the AMD support forums for my GPU's manufacturer, That thread can be found here:
    http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=443&threadid=167863&enterthread=y
    Thanks in advance to any who can help. I can provide more info if needed.

  • LabVIEW 2010 crash when calling user32.dll

    Interesting LabVIEW 2010 "feature" I discovered this morning.
    Attached are two identical VIs, one saved in 2010 and one saved in 2009.  These VIs were specifically written to demonstrate the bug I stumbled upon this afternoon.  Each VI when run should allow you to find a specific program (window) open in Microsoft Windows and bring it to the foreground.  It relies on "user32.dll" to perform this operation.  It also allows you to specify the calling convention for the function call.
    In LV 2009, either calling convention works, without error.  However, in LV 2010 the calling convention for the function must be "stdcall (WINAPI)" and not the default "C".  If the calling convention is "C" then LabVIEW crashes and closes without warning.
    If you happen to have both LV 2009 and LV 2010 on your computer, I would love to hear if this phenomenon is duplicated so that I can pinpoint whether the bug is LV 2010 related or is more specific to my personal setup.
    Thanks,
    ~David

    LabVIEW 8.5 through 2009 could adjust the calling convention at run time if the user selected the wrong option. In 2010 this no longer happens. More information is found in KnowledgeBase 59KB14WI

  • Sound Card Problem, or Driver Problem? Games crash, when they didn't befo

    Not sure what the problem is, but seems to be a sound problem of some sort. I have just re-installed Vista 64. And now when I try to play BF242, the game crashes before I even see any kind of gameplay. It also instantly crashes when I click on the audio options tab. I have installed the latest drivers from the site. I have even uninstalled them, and launched the game without any drivers, and the game runs perfectly fine, but only without sound.
    But I've been able to play BF242 before, but it would evenutally crash after a while, but at least I was able to get into the game. So knowing that Ive been able to play before, and it played without any drivers, I dug up some drivers that I know I had working at one point when the game was playing. And it still crashes before it gets into the game.
    So this makes me wonder, is this really a driver problem or a soundcard problem?
    All sounds are perfectly fine elsware, music, movies, OS tones, web, etc. Crysis runs perfectly fine. Company of Heros Crashes, Quake Wars crashed about 0 mins into a game. Team Fortress 2 runs perfectly fine. Battlefield 2 instantly crashes.
    Here's my specs:
    Vista 64 Ultimate
    Asus P5W DH Deluxe
    Asus nVidia 8800 GTX
    4gig Corsair XMS2 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel
    Powersupply Antec True Power Trio TP3-550 550W ATX2V Power Supply with Three 2V Rails
    Sound Blaster x-fi fatality (whatever the one that comes with the front computer interface)
    Any help would be great. I'd hate to go buy a new sound card just to try it, unless I had a pretty good idea that it was the issue.

    I think I found the problem. It was the physical card itself. I pulled my old Audialogy card out of my old machine, and swapped it. Now BF242 runs.
    And mine never went to a black screen, and had to hard reset. It just dumped right to the desktop with a message "bf242.exe has stopped working."
