when a game crashes and you are unable to use ctrl+alt+del to stop the application and pressing esc to leave the game dosent work whatother options are open to you
i was playing a game the other day and none of the above worked so all i could do was manually restart the computer which is not the best thing to do
is there any other way to exit a game after a crash?
cheers guys

Alt+Tab usually is one way, but that depends on the system
There Should be a Command that the Game Uses for an exit.
But, Sometimes the Alt+tab allows you to at least get back to windows and then do a Close of the Game, which is sort of close to forcing the game down, but it works

The following are all ways to close a program that i currently know:
1.Ctrl + Alt + Del
2. Alt + Tab
3. Ctrl + Shift + Esc
4. Alt + F4
5. Windowskey + D
these are your best choices to close a program if none work do a manual restart.

Those are the good ways to close a non-responsive program. You could try Ctrl+Break, but if Ctrl+Alt+Del is not working, then it's pretty much frozen until you hard boot it (manual restart).

Try Killing the program with ALT + F4. If that doesn't work you can always try switching between applications with ALT + TAB. Also, you can try to bring up your desktop with WINDOWSKEY + D.
But, you should really try to figure out what's making the game crash. Be sure you have updated drivers, and see if there are any patches available for the game. run checkdisk monthly (START > RUN > CMD > chkdsk) for filesystem errors.

If the computer has completly locked then there is no way to get it back, if ctrl alt del doesnt work then ur computer is probably totally frozen.

If you cant end a running process and the task manager wont open up because the keyboard doesnt respond - all you can do is pressing the reset button.
Pressing reset is a bit easier on the computer than turning it off completely.

Have you tried alt and tab to try and go into another app?
Otherwise just like if a program such as word freezes you may be stuck.
There could be an underlying problem if your games are freezing like that though. (i.e. more ram required or better graphics)
