Hi I run CE on a small acer with XP. 24/7  It used to work fine however it seems that the computer is continually crashing within the last month.

It works ok for a few days and then the computer screen goes black , there is a reboot or CE stops running. Any solutions to this? I have had to shut it down because of this. Cheers.

If you think CE might be the cause of this, I'd say exit out of it and don't run it for a week or so. Use the computer normally otherwise. This should tell us if it is CE causing the crashes or not.

I see that microsoft are stopping support of XP on 8 April. Can I run CE via Linux as I will probably switch over..

Hi Tristan,

First a big congratulations on getting Charity Engine up and running. There  aren’t many of us who get a chance to make a huge difference in this world, but hat’s off to anyone who does.

I’ve just started a project which I hope will raise more funds than you guys could potentially raise, but I really need help, and am hoping you could point me in the right direction.

Watch the presentation I’ve made, and give me your feedback.


Chris
