    I just brought a w3v but im having some major problems with windows.

    About half of any programs i run do not open and run in the background, i can see them in the task manager but cant close any of them.

    this is very anoying, there must be a major software issue here, i have never seen anything like this before,

    please help me

    Definitely software related... it's almost impossible to pinpoint the exact problem. It could be many things, in fact.
    First try uninstalling then restinalling your ATK0100 driver. If that doesn't work...then...as crappy as this sounds, I'd recommend doing a recovery install of Windows XP (reformat) using the CDs that came with your W3V
