iiaMRoberttx wrote Ok so, I am aware this part of the forums isn't as active as others but I have run out of idea's and I need some help from someone who knows what they're talking about.

Basically, I am getting a lot of blue screens, which are usually when i'm gaming or watching videos, but that may just be a coincidence. A few of the BCcodes i remember are 50, 4e and 124 maybe.

Aswell as the BSOD's I am also getting frequent crashes and computer restarts without actually showing me a blue screen, which got me thinking that it was a hardware error. Another problem which I have is that all my start-up programs usually die (sometimes a few, sometimes all of them) and I get an error for each one saying '......has stopped working', and I will not be able to launch them again until I restart my PC and hope to god they don't crash again.

This problem has been getting worse and worse, it started off with like one blue screen every couple of days, but now i'm lucky if I can stay on the computer for a couple of hours.

My friend told me to download WhoCrashed so I can look at my dump logs for my blue screens and most of them point towards driver errors, but which one!?

Another thing I would like to add is that I very very much doubt that this is a virus of some sort, As I have scanned my PC using multiple anti-virus/malware programs.

EDIT: I have also used the windows memory diagnostic tool to check for any memory problems, but no problems were found.


If anyone can help me resolve this issue or at least point me in the direction of some assistance I will love you forever.

Thanks, Rob

It should should be a very large file or have a bad signature. You can also use CMD to check if you connected to the internet. IF your offline and its show you have network activity, then you have a virus.

type this command without quotes "netstat" to check connectivity

That way we'll be able to narrow down the specific issue you're having.

My best guess so far is that it'll be something hardware/heat-related

( As it usually happens after "demanding" graphic processes. )

Well it just happened again, but this time, no blue screen, just everything freezes up. But yeah, next time ill take a picture. I have been monitoring my temps though as much as I can, and they don't seem too bad, they usually hover around 50 when playing games.

Yeah that's fine, getting kinda hot but still not "auto shutdown" temps ;)

As soon as you've got a picture of it go ahead and post it If it doesn't happen soon you can also send it to me via a private message if you want
