Filetonic / I like to play Runescape but whenever I run it, my computer shuts down! (It has had a memory dump before.) I get the following: Error 2229. Exception at ‘Y’ Height ‘X’ Width. (Or something like that, I don’t remember entirely.) This is a pain because when I do try to run Runescape or something that requires Java my computer completely SHUTS DOWN. I believe it’s an internal Java error that’s causing it and I understand that using RegCure will ‘probably’ fix it. However, before buying the product I want to be entirely sure that it will fix my computer of this error. Will it? Another concern is the cost of the product. I know that $40.00 sounds fair, but I wanted to know, before buying RegCure, if there was a way to fix my computer without spending any money whatsoever. If you could get back to me soon that would be great. Thank you.

Kat Delong A 2229 error signals that your computer has missing file systems or broken registry structures. Getting this error message is an important sign of an unstable system. You’re probably seeing it with Java related programs because it can mean that there is an installation error involving Windows Installer Service. Are you using a wireless system? A 2229 error can mean that a wireless link is dropping out when you are using Windows Installer. Windows can’t handle the errors so that the installation can continue.

Some techs advise downloading the Windows Service Pack 3 as a fix for 2229 errors. If the error is simply with the Windows Installer Service, then this might work for you and you won’t have to go any further or spend any more money.

In my opinion, the 2229 error you’re seeing is a registry error, particularly in light of the recent memory dump, and I’m guessing that you have problems with more than just the Installer Service. It is not specific to Runescape, but rather signals that your problems lie within your computer.

There are ways to get into the registry and manually locate and delete files, but this is something that should only be handled by a competent computer technician. Deleting the wrong thing in your registry can lead to many more problems and could result in an unrecoverable loss of data.

RegCure will fix registry errors such as this one and you can run a free scan from the website that will show you what problems you are having with your computer. It might be a good idea to run the free download and see if it discovers these kinds of registry errors if you are uncomfortable about paying for it first. The program will allow you to either scan and fix problems automatically, or give you the option of manually guiding the process, depending on how much control you want over the process.

Because error 2229 is a registry error, RegCure is a good solution. It may seem that $40 is a lot of money, but it is nothing compared to the cost of recovering lost data and rebuilding a machine - not to mention the cost of losing files that are irreplaceable.
