Default Fixing Valve games for SP2

Windows SP2 has a weird program installed to it that will automatically boot you off the loading screen of any valve games and other softwares.. Most people turn off their error reporting right when they reinstall their windows so they can't play Valve games. Here's what I did:

1) Press the windows key+pause/break... this will get you to system properties

2) Go to advanced

3) Go to error reporting

4) Enable it and make sure both sub categories are checked

5) Go load up a Valve game

6) It should say something as it exits half life 2

7) Disable the service that it asks

8) You can now turn off error reporting

Good luck! :)

isn't this a little out of date? Maybe a delete is in order?
