If that didn’t work go to the processes tab and right click on sonic and click ‘end process now’ and that should in 99.9% of all cases shut the program down.<BR /><BR />As for your current problem someone else may be able to help you. <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.ba/html/@3191CA7235A406D833094BA2DD1CF2FF/images/smilies/011.png" alt=":slight_smile:" title=":slight_smile:" /><BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 08 Feb 2006 10:35:55 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/serious-system-crash/m-p/163701#M98333 Lizzie 2006-02-08T10:35:55Z Re: serious system crash!! https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/serious-system-crash/m-p/163702#M98334 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I dont think Ctrl+Alt+Delete was an option for him Lizzie as he states that his computer had completely frozen.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 08 Feb 2006 10:57:14 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/serious-system-crash/m-p/163702#M98334 febs 2006-02-08T10:57:14Z
