pc crash
My computer has the following problem: every time I start my pc, I get one of the following problems after a certain time period, sometimes a few seconds after loading my profile, sometimes after more than 20 minutes. The problem comes in 3 variations: 1) Frieze: the screen simply freezes; in other words, the site or the program that's open at the time; stay there, mouse and keyboard refuse to function. Nothing works anymore, such as website animations are frosen, and so on. 2) Spontanious reboot: the pc reboots by himself, without me asking it. One moment everything is Ok, the next the screen is showing the regular boot codes. 3) black screen: the screen simply goes black. The pc stays on, but keyboard and mouse don't respond anymore, not even caps lock leds. The pc appears to have entered sleep mode, but it won't do anything anymore, no matter what you do, or how long you let it stand up. Here follows the DirectX diag report. I'm a hardware noob. I checked for virusses and spyware, nothing. I also did fragmentation and such, (altough no system format) and it doesn't help a thing). EDIT: the problem occurs every time, and it occurs about 5 to 10 times before the system seems to be stabilised.

Try starting in Safe mode.
Go into Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Event Viewer and see what it lists as errors.

I removed the report - please don't post that kind of stuff unless asked, a DirectX diag is not appropriate for troubleshooting this issue and it's so long that most members won't even bother reading it and will move on instead of offering help.
I'd look at hardware being the problem. Weak power supply, overheating, or faulty RAM being the prime suspects. First thing you need to do is go into control panel, system, advanced, startup and recovery, and uncheck restart on error. Next time, instead of rebooting, it should give you a BSOD, write down what it says (stop error, verbage, modules) for a clue. |
