Windowblinds Killed my computer!

Sort of killed it...

Wednesday, June 11, 2008 by DragonKid | Discussion: Object Desktop

I was trying to apply a theme and all of a sudden, all of my applications suddenly quit!  I went into the Event Viewer and all of the applications crashed because of WBLIND.dll. I'm not running WB right now because I'm having other issues running it (Like all Aero effects disabled when using it).  Here's my information:

Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 5.2
Your Windows Graphics Experience score is 5.9

I know that, but I couldn't think of anything else to say besides that. My computer did come to a screeching halt, though. Thanks for the help. I will contact them.

Everything crashing happens to me only about 10% of the time, have you tried again?
