Freezes when searching for a value

Running vista SP1, and everytime I attach to a program called "Engine.exe" (Combat arms), 99% of the time MHS will freeze while attempting to search for a value and take down explorer.exe with it...Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've tried the majority of basic solutions I could find on this forum and none have done anything to help me :?

Disable the kernel ReadProcessMemory() and WriteProcessMemory().

also scanning in a lower range would help. It could simply be the fact that you are overloading your CPU =P

Verify the search range does not go above 0x7FFFE000.
Disable Precaching.
Disable Postflushing.
Modify the buffer size (large or smaller).
Do not pause the target process.

thanks for the help, after messing around with what you suggested I finally got it working.
