Whenever i turn on my computer when i get home from school, it stalls on the first screen that has the options to go into bios. Then that goes away in about 1 minute, after that it stalls at the windows boot up screen for while before it freezes. I have to manually restart a couple times before it works. It works fine after that, i can restart and it will not stall. I have formatted serveral times and that does not seem to help. This is really annoying because sometimes when i manually restart, i corrupt some windows file and i have to format all over again. Formatting weekly isn't fun!!!:(

Does any one know the problem?

btw my specs are:
nforce 2 a7n8x asus
9700 pro
80 gig wd hd +160 gig wd hd
2 x 256 ddr ram
 
Run the western digital diagnostic software i think you have a defective drive :(

Let me ask you this, did this problem progress over time or just start happening? Lately, once in a while when I boot my system, my system will freeze at the BIOS start screen too (where it shows the system info), I usually have to turn off and turn on the system and it will boot fine. However, hearing your problem will get me to run a diagnostics on mine. This never happened before and seems to be happening more often.
 
it just started happening after i RMA'd my videocard and got it back..sigh problem after problem
 
What is the power/ make of your PSU.
Also check your voltages.

Try running the stability tests.
First Memtest86, then Prime95, then 3dMark.

Are you overclocked or are you running stock.

Luck.........:D
