Crashing on use of Windows button

Postby ShowMeMagik » Tue 19 Dec, 2017 2:24 am

Hi 'll,

Whenever I hit the windows button to ran out of elite back to my desktop everything just freezes. The only way out is to reset my laptop.

Any ideas?

Never had that happen to me before. Have you tried alt-tabbing instead of using the windows key? Also check your Task Manager performance to see if there's any system part that's maxed out and may be causing the crash.

Alt tab freezes my laptop too. It literally just stops and I have to shut it off to get working again.

Does ctrl-alt-del to get to the Task Manager also crash it? Think it could be a ram issue.
