Okay, I was wondering if there was such a program to end hanging proccesses, but of only 3D Applications...
This is due to the amount of times my game will usually crash... Well, it'll just freeze leaving any button I press to try and get out of it useless... Maybe this can't be fixed with a program but it's worth a go...
By the way, the program crashing thing is nothing I need help with. The reason it's crashing is because I'm fooling around with the game code :P And sometimes, I make errors... The errors make the game crash... The game crash makes my whole PC need resetting.
Any suggestions to programs that do this are appreciated... I'd pefer it if it was Freeware... And would only buy something that is big and well used...
I was thinking that it fits this category better since I'm simply looking for a program to end the hanging, full screen window... Not neccessarily for game although that is my use of it.

Have you tried the Windows Task Manager?
Please let us know if you found someone's advice to be helpful.
Task Manager is absolutely no use while running a full-screen application.
But I suddenly realised that I know enough basic to make myself an application that can do this... So, yeah. I'll be making myself something to force that proccess to end.

If you have another PC with XP Pro or Vista, you can use taskkill to remotely kill the offending game.
