Like the title says, i have to reinstall most of my PC games every time i wanna play. Like Max Payne 2, War Craft 3, MAME, DEUS EX2, ect, ect. I dunno why this happens. Itfs used to happen on my old HP but i built my current PC out of all new parts. The only thing that is the same is the Ethernet card and monitor.

Any comments or ideas?

What are your games doing to warrant a new installation?

Most of these games work if i close the game then play it again within 5mins but after that i have to reinstall.

With WarCrafft 3 itfll say that i don;t have the game installed if i donft reinstall the game and the expansion pack if i close the game for a few minutes i play.

With MAME. I get a error message unless I install it every time.

With Max Payne 2, itfll load the first screen but when it gets to the menu screen itfll turn my screen blue and freeze the PC unless i reinstall before playing.
