Greetings one and all in 2011. This issue may already have been addressed, so I hope that I am not repeating anything. I purchased a 'combo-pack' of Emergency 3 and 4 from Ebay,about two months ago, and they are the official games from Sixteen Tons Entertainment. I downloaded the LA-Mod Accessories for both versions of the game, and played them without any problems - until recently (say, in the last week). About 2 or 3 days ago, I got this message on my monitor: Microsoft has detected a problem with <TODO> (Game Name), and needs to be corrected. Send an Error Report to Microsoft? I didn't know what "<TODO>" was, so I said "YES" to the Error Report. Nothing seemed to be amiss, so I started up my Emergency 4 game. It appeared to load alright, but when the main screen came up with that controller on the screen, all the window icons which allow me access to Modifications, Saved Games, Options, etc. were "shaky" and in the upper left corner, there was a notation of Frame Rates, and this was a series of numbers constantly changing. Each of the icon windows had the words, "I.D. Static" imposed on each of the functions. I then clicked on "QUIT," and the game disappeared. It was replaced with a blue screen with all sorts of writing, but the main words were, "MICROSOFT HAS DETECTED A SERIOUS ERROR AND WINDOWS IS SHUTTING DOWN TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER." The screen gave instructions to shut down and restart the computer, which I did, and then the message would read, "The system has recovered from a serious error." I then attempted to restart Emergency 4, and received the same picture as described earlier, and the same warning message from Microsoft. I then REMOVED both games and am writing on this forum for advice, assitance, and/or answers to this problem. Thank you.
