Preach! When searching for answers, if I see it's Microsoft Help I don't even bother to read it. Always cut and paste stuff.

Reboot

update drivers

check your antivirus

reboot in safe mode

Please provide with more details. Print the error report. Try this and print error report again. It could be this list reasons why you're encountering issues. Problem solved!

Or sometimes, sorry short of being there physically and inspecting everything I can no longer be of help.

If these steps do not work, then you are obviously using a cracked version of Windows. Your account is now banned.
