Good night! I have been having problems with this tip.
I did all steps right but it won't open any game ( I waited for 5 min and nothing , then I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Delete to end process).

I tried with Counter Strike. Can you help me?:cry:

Windows XP Professional. When I waited for 5 min the HD light was lighting a lot as insane. I told this tip to my friends and them had the same result as me.

So right now if you go to Start>>run and type ==> Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks and press enter, what happens? How long does it take for the hour glass to disappear? Thanks

That's a good thing -- No windows are supposed to pop up and nothing is supposed to happen.....It does it automatically in the background.....when you go to Start>>run and copy/paste: Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks and press enter, an hour glass that looks something like this ==>http://www.webs4u.co.nz/hints/pix/hourglas.gif should appear next to the pointer.....how long does it take for that hour glass to disappear after performing the command?
