    Two error codes minimizes full screen applications (games)


    Ever since I installed windows 10 on this new computer, I have been getting two error codes during gaming and they always seem to minimize my game at the worst moments. The two codes read "Error! Error decompressing win32ui.pyd" and "Error -3 from inflate: incorrect data check". It ins't a frequent or huge issue but it can be quite annoying. I simply click ok on both messages and they go away for a while but it seems to happen every few hours or so regardless of any troubleshooter/sfcscan I run. What is the cause of these error codes? And how can I stop them from minimizing my full screen games?

    :)

    BIOS error codes

    So I have motherboard with installed small LED screen, which presents BIOS error codes.

    Where can I find a list of those errors. And I don't mean beep codes, but the "number" codes.

    Ex after installing sound card, the motherboard startup fails with the code 15.

    Example picture of code is here.

  3. Windows 10 games minimizes periodically

    Hello,

    To understand the issue better, I would like to ask some questions:

    • Is the issue particular to a game or all games?
    • Do you get any error message?
    • Which build is installed in your computer?
    • Is the issue occurring with Windows Store games?

    I suggest you to update the Graphic card driver by following the steps provided below and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
    • Expand Display Adapters.
    • Right click on the driver and select Update Driver Software.
    • Follow the on-screen prompts to update the driver.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Thank you.
