My computer: Dell Intel i-5-4460
CPU @ 3.20 GHz
RAM 88 GB
64-bit
I play a game on Facebook called Bejeweled. Every now and then I buy coins from them to continue to play. They have a 1/2 off sale on Fridays, and this Friday I went to buy some coins and when I clicked on the little plus sign, a box comes up and says "Waiting for Server Response". It would never let me buy coins. So I emailed the Facebook or Bejeweled people and got a response that they were having trouble, however, some people have corrected the problem by emptying their history, so I did that. No difference. Now they are telling me to do this and before I do this, I wanted to ask if you guys thought this was a way to fix the problem. I'm a little skeptical.
Start - misconfig
Go to System Configuration
Hit Services Tab
Click box Hide All Microsoft Services, Disable All
Go to Startup Tab and click on open Task Manager
Click each of the Startup Programs in the list and click Disable Button
Close Task Manager
Click Okay on System Configuration and restart my computer.
Then get on the game and see if that worked.
Seems to me (and you guys know I don't know computers) if I disable all on startup, I will get nothing when my computer restarts. Should I do all this?
