    CD games keep frequently going active and inactive every second


    I've just noticed this when trying to run game CDs on my Windows 10 PC, all the active windows including the game "window" itself keep constantly switching between active and inactive every second. For example, when installing them, the little popups that open during the installation process have this problem. The games themselves install just fine, but when I try to play them, the same problem occurs - the game keeps frequently cutting in and out of activity and inactivity, like the game's "window" was constantly going between being active and inactive. How do I fix this? This is very annoy

    :)

    Cd Game not loading

    Tried to use Administrator but the cd won't or can't be acknowledged. I have even tried a DVD and that has now the same action.

    Is there something else going on that I am unaware of? Have run Anti-virus checker and checked for Malware but nothing.

    Been on-line to games-workshop and did as they suggested but again nothing happened. I cannot access the cd/dvd Setup.exe file to even try to manually activate the files.

    Anymore suggestions?

    Thank you for responding to my plea for help.

    RIP CDs

    Hi,

    We suggest that you perform these steps and check if the issue persists:

    • Press "Windows" + "E" button on the keyboard.
    • Go to "View > Navigation pane" and select "Show libraries".
    • Now in the navigation pane, right-click on the "Music" library under "Libraries" and select "Delete".
    • Now right-click on the "Libraries" and select "Restore default libraries".
    • Now try to rip.

    We also suggest that you refer to this link. Burn and rip CDs.

    Regards.
