While playing Minecraft, my computer closes the game window and opens Notepad with hs_err_pid error. I have tried reinstalling the game and installed different version of Java. I have also scanned my computer using Antivirus, Anti-Malware, and Spy Sweeper and then update my Windows Ultimate computer with Service Pack 1. I installed the updated drivers for all the hardwares like Graphics and Sound cards but it doesn’t help. Can you suggest a resolution to get out of the issue? Any help will be appreciated.
Error in Notepad while Playing Minecraft Game

Hello Zafira!
Â
You have two options to solve this problem.
Â
First, go to Control Panel – System and look for System Properties tab. Under Performance click Settings. Choose the Advance tab and under the section 'Virtual Memory' click 'Change the Paging file to a Custom size' to a minimum size of 2048 and max size of 2048 and then click OK. Reboot your PC. Locate your Minecraft.exe file and now create a notepad file, put this in notepad:
Â
java -Xmx768M -Xms256M -jar minecraft.exe
Â
Save it as Minecraft.bat. Now you will have to open this instead of the .exe file.
Â
The other solution is simple, check what browser do you have, if it's 32-bit or 64-bit. If it is so, download a java 32-bit or 64-bit to your system. This should also solve your problem.

Hope this helps!
