Random reboots under Windows x64, HELP.
Hi,
I own an Athlon x2 processor (4400+) and I'm currently running Windows XP Pro sp1 x64. My system specs are as follows: Asus A8n32-SLI Deluxe MB Asus EN7800GTX Nvidia 256 Mb video card 4 x 512 mb PC4000 OCZ Gold Rev. 2 Ram 250Gb WD 16 Mb SATA2 HDD 500 watt Antec Fanless power supply creative x-Fi sound blaster Xtreme Music Sound card plus all the usual peripherals etc.. I have a problem with my ssytem that is driving me insane and I wonder if anyone here can help me. My problem is as follows: My system randomly reboots itself with out any warning. The reboot are sometimes completely random, as in I'm not using any software and the computer is just idle and other times tne reboots occur when I using anything from MS Office to playing a game. I've scanned my system for viruses and found nothing, I've useed a bunch of anti spyware programs and deleted anything those programs found, but still the reboots occur. What's going on???? My ssytem is relatively new and this is driving me crazy. I've intalled all the 64 bit compatible drivers I can find for my hardware and ther doesnt seem to be a problem so what gives. Sometimes i get an error in windows after the reboot that a serious problem occured and that it was potentialy hardware related. Could it be, if anyone has a clue or wants to help me out please go ahead. |

Asus K8N, Athlon, 2 X 512Mb 400ddr RAM, etc., starts, posts and and loads the proposed OS (Win XP pro) to the point where it says " loading NTFS file system...", whereas it will then reboot and loads to the same point. It does this consistantly. I tried a different OS disk ( Win2K) and it goes to a point where it asks if you want to load an OS, Repair, etc. When you press ENTER, the system says "Please wait..." and remains there. Initially, I removed one of the memory boards and the system load went on as it was supposed to. However, swapping the one I removed, back in, didn't make any difference. it still worked, with one board. It's when you insert the 2nd (either) memory board that the system fails. Other than the #2 Dimm slot being bad, I'm trying to find out if there are any 'brand issues' with the type of memory used. Have you looked at that/ |

Random reboots under Windows x64, HELP.
Hi,
I had the same problem as you describe. Your computer probably reboots because of a blue screen (Machine check exception, probably), There is an option to turn of the automatic reboot when a blue screen appears. (Google for it) With the blue screen you have information about the error, googling for the, F.I. 0x0000009c number (This number is on the blue screen at the bottom, will give you a lot of solutions. My problem was that my cheap soundcard was causing the reboots. Incompatible hardware probably. I removed the sound card and the problem didn't return. Suggestion: Start bottom up, Remove all PCI cards and other hardware and check if the problem is still there.

Random reboots under Windows x64, HELP.
This is just great. The errors just keep coming. I did a google
search on past errors I've had and they are both either hardware or software (OS related). Some having to do with IrQ's and other internal Windows things. THere actually are several specialized updates available for most of theese errors but I can't apply them to my system as they are only for Windows 2003 Server or Windows 2000?!?! Way to go Micro $hit...make updates available for only a small niche segment of your clientelle and leave the others behind. Don't know what to do anymore, might go back to Wndows xp pro, but i dont want to I actually see a performance improvement with my procesor and win x64. I still get errors with win xp pro to but less often. Too bad, guess I'll have to wait for vista to come out. Maybe then. P.S. I took out my top of the line Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme music card and I've noticed fewer crashes, at least onone relating to my sound hardware anymore.... Odd, the latest error was a : 0x000000D1 error...something about IRQ's and nvata64.sys file. and a title of DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Bigred |

It sounds an awful lot like the type of instability that is caused by a
marginal (or failing) power supply. Have you tried swapping in another one to see if it helps? Jared http://jaredrichardson.net "bigred" wrote in message oups.com... This is just great.

I had this problem every other time I would boot my computer and I'd get a bsod during the Windows loading screen. You need to uninstall the Nvidia IDE drivers because they are not causing a conflict and are not necessary unless you are utilizing a raid setup. Go to Control Panel Add/Remove Programs and click the change/remove button for 'Nvidia Drivers' A pop up box will appear and select "Remove only the following" and check Nvidia IDE Driver, or something similar to that. -- d3m0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d3m0's Profile: http://www.futurehardware.in/members/4002.htm View this thread: http://www.futurehardware.in/199386.htm http://www.futurehardware.in |
