Hey there Bill - well, we started working this issue in November, seemed to get a fix and now it is BACK with a vengence. BSOD or total freeze up after boot up. It may take anywhere from 5-20 minutes to happen but when it does, thats all you get. We worked extensively on Bios settings...

Yes, I know where the restore points are BUT my calendar has no bolded dates despite the Restore being activated. I did do a repair install and that got me back to the net BUT my computer is still infected with some sort of spyware that is popping up every now and then.... additionally I...

I will try it through F8...maybe I can get it that way? As I said in the first part of this post, if I go to system restore point - the only point I see is the last time I logged onto the computer. All other restore points and dates are GONE.

Maybe it was in the middle of an update when this happened and I just lost everything? HELP!

Yes this is an XP SP2 machine. Yes, I can confirm the network adapter is installed. I can enable and disable it. Winsock. Got it and installed it but nothing happened...after I restarted, it gave me all the same warnings.

Ok guys - Came home from work. Computer was on since last night. I saw that Symantec Antivirus had quarantined some items...(dont remember what they were). Internet was working (I was downloading a torrent file from eztv.it) I rebooted the computer... After a very slow reboot (stuck...

Here is what I did overnight - I turned OFF the screensaver and let the computer remain on overnight. (I turned the monitor off) This morning, I turned the monitor back on, wiggled the mouse and it came to life right away. So - seems like the Screen Saver is the issue but why? I dont know.

Ok - this has been happening quite a bit - I have WinXP SP2. I have the screen saver set to turn on after 5 minutes. Sometimes I use My Picture Slide Show and most recently I changed it to Blank Screen. It doesn't matter. The monitor is set to shut off after 1 hour. The hard drive is...

Thanks and no worries! The strange thing is this: I have two computers with very similiar components. One has an early rev. of a MoBo. This computer has had this same problem for over a year and although I changed the HD and the Video Card, no change to the problem (although I dont have it...

Bill - I still get this darn error for no reason. It seems to rotate between a RAM issue and a device driver.. This problem was caused by an error in your computer's random access memory (RAM). Microsoft is unable to determine if this problem was caused by a hardware or software issue...

Random error caused my computer to shutdown while sitting at the desktop. Here is what Windows Error Reporting gave me: Problem caused by Device Driver You received this message because a device driver installed on your computer caused the Windows operating system to stop unexpectedly...

Couldn't get them off the NAS BUT as I was sulking, I had a stroke of genius - just recover the deleted files from the memory card. It worked like a champ! All pictures recovered with the program - File Scavenger ($49.95).

HELP! I accidentally deleted some pictures from my Maxtor Shared Storage device. I have a 500GB network storage drive connected to my Router through an RJ45 cable. I have tried a few data recovery programs but can't seem to find one that will recognize my network drive. Any help out...

All complete and no issues so far - game is great! My multiplier is 2.5 (on selections are ... 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 ...). Memory is now showing 833 mhz Used F11 to save the bios. I updated my signature to include my cooling. My CPU has a ZALMAN CNPS7700-CU. I can run it with a rheostat...

All ok! And Memory Freq (MHZ) now shows 800 REFRESH TO ACT DELAY has to have a # from 0 - 500 (28 seemed to be the recommended so thats what I put) DDR2 OverVoltage Control +0.1V Games play just fine!

Set FSB overvoltage to NORMAL Ran Metest86+ for 8h 47m - with no errors.

Another update: I turned the computer on this morning and was able to play Team Fortress 2 for 2 - 3 hours without it every shutting down or having any issues. Suddenly things are better...BUT notice the error I received at the end of this post. ORTHOS / Core Temps Idle temps: 42C Load...

Bill - Thanks for the great guide! let me say that I have been experiencing a long term problem of my System shutting down after playing Games or watching movies on Windows Media Player for some time now. I initiallly thought it was a video card problem but I have recently put a new card in...
