Hello man,

I was impressed by your posts and i really need your help. i am creating a card game ( some kind of poker) to give it to my friend in order to play it for free and no more spend money to play it.

I have recently finished the game but i am facing a problem, when pressing the (DEAL) button sometimes, at some points, the application freezes. The CPU usage reaches 100%. So i want to ask you as an expert what should i do.

[lengthy code not included]

num2 = randomnum.Next(1, 14);
kind2 = randomnum.Next(1, 5);
string string2 = num2.ToString() + kind2.ToString();
while (string2 == string1)
{
num2 = randomnum.Next(1, 14);
kind2 = randomnum.Next(1, 5);
}

foreach(string file in Directory.GetFiles([path])<br />
{<br />
   File.Delete(file);<br />
}
