never mind, Deus Ex started crashing when it opens again. anyone know what to do? I have no idea.

i tried everything it suggested, but it didn't work. Dues Ex stopped crashing right when i open it, but now it crashes after 1/2 an hour or so

but i never had a BSOD. They just stopped responding and minimized, that's it.

I looked in the problem history and this is what it said for Deus Ex:DescriptionA problem caused this program to stop interacting with Windows.Faulting Application Path: C:Program Files (x86)Steamsteamappscommondeus ex - human revolutiondxhr.exeProblem signatureProblem Event Name: AppHangB1Application Name: dxhr.exeApplication Version: 1.3.643.1Application Timestamp: 4e970629Hang Signature: 79f5Hang Type: 2048OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3Locale ID: 1033Additional Hang Signature 1: 79f536caa9d46bb5df4522935e29ff4eAdditional Hang Signature 2: e944Additional Hang Signature 3: e94447cbd287a49a5d8448fcb54ee11cAdditional Hang Signature 4: 79f5Additional Hang Signature 5: 79f536caa9d46bb5df4522935e29ff4eAdditional Hang Signature 6: e944Additional Hang Signature 7: e94447cbd287a49a5d8448fcb54ee11cIt doesn't look much different:( I also couldn't find anything for FSX, but i did find error messages like this:DescriptionA problem with your video hardware caused Windows to stop working correctly.Problem signatureProblem Event Name: LiveKernelEventOS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3Locale ID: 1033Files that help describe the problemWD-20111231-2033.dmpsysdata.xmlWERInternalMetadata.xml View a temporary copy of these filesWarning: If a virus or other security threat caused the problem, opening a copy of the files could harm your computer.Extra information about the problemBCCode: 117BCP1: FFFFFA8006E93010BCP2: FFFFF8800F1AE9C8BCP3: 0000000000000000BCP4: 0000000000000000OS Version: 6_1_7601Service Pack: 1_0Product: 768_1there are a lot of messages like these and they seem to happen on the same days as the game crashes. That's about it.

ok, there are a lot of error messages in there. One if found for the Deus Ex crashes is:"The program dxhr.exe version 1.3.643.1 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed.

no error message popped up, but what is the event viewer? The temps are usually fine, my graphics card came pre overclocked, but that's it, and i didn't change the memory settings in the BIOS, or anything else for that matter. my computer has a GA-Z68X-UD4-B3 motherboard, i5 2500k processor, GeForce GTX 570(fermi) graphics card, 750W power supply, 1TB hard drive, and 8GB of memory.Also, not all of my games are having this problem. The witcher 2, skyrim, and KAG are working fine. It seems to only be happening with the group of games that i mentioned.

Please help. A lot of my games freeze for a second, then minimize and will not open back up, so basically most of my games are having CTD problems. It happens most frequently in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but also happens a lot in battlefield 3 and once or twice in Shogun 2 and Batman: Arkam city. My graphics drivers are updated and no programs are running in the background. Please help.
