Computer Crashes Due To Overheating CPU
Feb 7, 2012
System Manufacturer/Model Number
Sony VAIO VPCCW17FX (~2 years old) OS
Windows 7 Home Premium OEM 64 Bit (~1 month since clean install, 1 week since
[Code]......
I gave Best Buy my Sony VAIO laptop to fix it since I have the three year extended service. All I was getting fixed was a key on my mouse pad. I figured, no biggie.
They replaced my motherboard because the mouse key input was faulty. My computer now shuts off if I do any intensive task. For example, I scanned my computer for viruses with Malwarebytes and it turned off. There are no crash reports, and nothing in the logs to indicate the crash, but I will upload the full report anyway. I also have a CSV file with the temperature readouts (CPU gets up to 88 C, so I think this may have something to do with it, lol, but the temps right at crash were 54 C after climbing to 83 C or 78 C).
If I run any of the Prime95 tests, my laptop crashes fairly quickly.
Small FFTs (maximum FPU strtess, data fits in L2 cache, RAM not tested much) ~3 seconds In-place large FFTs (maximum heat, power consumption, some RAM tested) ~0.5-1 second Blend (tests some of everything, lots of RAM tested) ~3 seconds

my computer keeps overheating whenever im doing gaming or otherwise. It first started when i was playing a game on Windows 7 and it crashed, and its been crashing ever since.
I have tried reinstalling Windows 7 and it crashed while it was reinstalling. however xp is more stable and since then whenever i try to play a game my computer freezes so i have come to the conclusion that's its an overheating problem.
I am not sure if its my gpu because its at 66c right now and it normally goes up to 80c while gaming. but i am also not sure if its my system fan as my bios says its going at 800rpm and easy tune pro comes up with a warning saying its too slow.

My computer keeps shutting off recently due to overheating (the area near the exhaust feels extremely hot).How can I clean out the fan without voiding the warrenty (even though Im not sure if its still valid anymore).If it isnt, would all I ahve to do is open it up by unscrewing the whole bottom and clean out the dust?

My computer system crashes when I play most video games (only company of heroes and civilization 5 wont crash). I have already ran all the stress tests including memtest 86+, prime95 and furmark without any errors/crashes. I suspected that it was a driver issue so I decided to do a clean reinstall of windows 7 and then install all the drivers. It had absolutely no effect I updated my motherboard and video card BIOS but that didnt help either. I tried disabling ULPS and 2D clocks for my video card but nothing happened. The only critical event that is logged in event viewer is "kernel ID 41" (Its just a notification that my computer was shut off unexpectedly). When the computer crashes, a black screen will appear and the last bit of audio that was playing will get distorted and it will keep on playing(It will make a loud BRRRRR noise).I have to then manually restart the computer and boot back into windows.
system specs:
phenom ii x6 1050t @3.9ghz 1.46v (max temp 52C)
8 GB kingston hyper x 1600mhz memory
radeon 7850 2 GB (max temp 58C)
OCZ modxstream 700 watt PSU
1 TB western digital HDD
corsair c70 with 6 120mm cooling fans

Whenever he prints his laptop freezes. It gets halfway through the print and then the computer freezes. When it freezes it renders the computer totally useless until a restarts.
The print also stops as soon as the computer crashes, even if it had not finished the print. The printer only spews out the paper when he restarts the computer.
The computer is running windows 7 home premium. The printer is Cannon MP280

So, I start the computer and login fine. After login my computer freezes and either blue screens without text or returns to the normal desktop but is frozen. I have tried to run it in safemode and it will not crash in it. I'm thinking a driver problem or possible corrupt memory.

I am trying to uninstall my .Net framework but my computer just crashes with a bluescreen or freeze. I get the same result when I use a .Net framwork cleanup tool. The bluescreen error code is usually Stop 0x0000000A.The reason I am trying to reinstall my .Net framework is because some programs such as Nem's tools fail to launch and instead get an error saying "side by side configuration is incorrect". If I try to repair my .Net framework i get the same bluescreen.

Have an MSI laptop that runs Windows 7 32 bit version. Recently it has a tendency to reboot when I come back to use it after the screen has switched off. When I get back, there is the blue screen and then it asks whether I want to reboot as normal. Upon restart it says that Windows closed down unexpectadly etc.I have tried to look at the crash dump files, but I must admit I am not that much closer to understand what the problem is. It happens a few times a day. Could it be related to the HDMI cable that I have recently purchased and occasionally plug in/out during the day in order to watch movies over the TV? However, it crashes also when the cable is not in.

A couple of days ago I did something really stupid: I tried to download a game for free by following a tutorial which required me to install a Babylon toolbar from an ad. It didn't work, so I uninstalled all the babylon stuff and scanned my computer with Avira and Ad-aware, they came up with some detections and a hidden object and removed them.After that, I bought the game instead of downloading. However, my computer now randomly freezes when playing and seems slightly slower than before. As long as I'm not gaming, my computer functions normally, but starting the game makes my computer freeze and BSOD every 2 out of 3 times. Also my computer doesn't seem to make any minidumps, even after enabling it via those settings and trying tons of other ways.

I have my XBOX 360 connected via ethernet cable and often times when I attempt to view Live TV or play a recorded show through the XBOX, it crashes the computer.
I have 64 Bit Windows 7, 4 GB RAM, 2.8 GHz quad core, 1 GB XFX Radeon HD 5670, and use the AVerMedia A188 PCIe Pure ATSC TV Tuner. I've even gone as far as reinstalling Windows 7 with the thought that it might be a 3rd party software issue to no avail.
It does work about 70% of the time, but its really annoying waiting for the computer to restart. Why does this keep happening and what can I do to fix it?

I have just installed a new hard drive to my computer as well as a fresh install of Windows 7,to my surprise after updating everything and installing programs, my computer suddenly hangs and crashes, after time this developed into BSOD,which now constantly happens. Not entirely sure why, whether it's a driver issue or what. If anyone can look into this and help my problem then.

My computer has been crashing every time it goes into sleep mode. I just bought it 2 months ago, so this is especially troubling. It works fine, other than getting the Blue Screen of Death every time I wake it up. Microsoft ® Windows Debugger Version 6.12.0002.633 AMD64 Copyright © Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

bought a pre-made from computer from tiger electronics last year in june.immediately, as in the day i got it, i started crashing when opening Internet.i solved that by turning off the realtime visualization or something along those lines and it was temporarily fixed. i began to have more start up problems and other stupid issues with the computer and their tech-support insisted that nothing was wrong and i'm an idiot but to satisfy me they'd change my hard drive. so that did nothing, and unless i want to pay a bunch for them to do a real check up on it i've been screwed. whenever i open a video, from windows media player to my flip video camera player my computer will instantly crash. whether it's a blue, green, white, or black screen it's different every time.

my mini computer is a funny one, i can be sitting working on it for hours on end without any hick ups but always whenever i leave it for a while to go do something else, when i come back it has crashed, automatically rebooted so no bluescreen. but it only crashes like this if i leave it idle, turned on.
What processes does windows start when the computer is not engaged by a user? because it has to be something like that which makes it fault and reboot right?

I have a homebuilt system that I have had for a little over a year now. I am currently having an issue when waking my computer from sleep. When I wake the computer, I can see the machine turn on and start up (LED fans light up) but the monitor stays black. It stays like that and my only option is to do a hard reset.
After resetting the computer, it says its resuming windows and lets me login, but it runs very slow for a while. On my next restart, the computer "checks the disk for consistency", and then after that everything is normal again.
This doesn't happen every time I put it to sleep, but it has been happening a lot lately. I had this issue last year, but it just stopped, and i can't remember if I had done anything to fix it. I did not have this problem again until sometime last week. The only thing I did last week was I installed the new drivers for my video card and uninstalled/reinstalled MSI afterburner.

I have a problem which is that when I play games the screen goes black and then it plays the audio that was playing at that moment quickly and repeatedly for 2 or 3 seconds and then the computer will restart. After the computer restarts it won't work so I have to manually turn off the computer and then turn it back on. This happens on the majority of games that I play.

We recently purchased parts to build 2 completely new PC's for our company. Both PC's have the exact same specs, hardware and software...
yet one of them keeps crashing every couple of days. The other one has not had a single problem yet.
I'm providing the 2 crash dumps from the offending PC. If anyone could help us out in assessing the problem, we'd greatly appreciate it as we have absolutely no clue what's gong on currently.

First I'll explain the problem about 6 months ago I had a PSU blow out on me, so I replaced it and all was well for a time when the PC would shut down and then restart without even showing a BSOD, at first it was now and then but gradually got worse. At first I thought it might of been the CPU overheating, I also thought that when the PSU blew it caused damage to the MB. So over a period of time I have ended up replacing all the hardware. For a time it seemed okay but the problem soon returned. (just to note it only shuts down when playing or starting games, I can surf the net or play videos etc without a problem).
My next thought was that it was a software conflict so I have ended up rebuilding a second PC, with a new HDD just incase it was a virus etc, I've loaded Windows 7 (home) 32bit, installed the graphics card (GeForce 560 Ti) with latest Nvidia drivers and a Asus sound card. I then installed Minecraft just as a test game and sure enough it crashes.

My computer keeps randomly restarting. It doesn't matter if I'm browsing the Internet or playing games it will just happen randomly. It crashes most frequently during the boot up after the initial crash. system repair will give me a few extra minutes but it eventually crashes again. When rebooting it will turn off and on and ONE of my case fans which is connected to my motherboard will flicker on and off. i have other fans connected to the board that do not do this.
I've never posted here so I'm not sure what I should include in this post but here are my parts.
Motherboard: gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 AM3+ 970 R
Video Card: Radeon HD 7770 1G
Power Supply: Corsair HX750 750W
CPU: AMD Phenom II 3.4G AM3 R
Memory: 4Gx2 Vengeance
Hard Drive: 1TB SATA 6.0 32M
Windows 7 Home edition 64bit
Things I've done:
-booted in safe mode (still crashed and restarted)
-system restore (still crashed but less frequent)
-checked and secured power connections to the mother board
-sysstem repair (same as restore)
-Began a virus scan but computer crashed before it could finish
-checked CPU heat (remains 35-45 degrees Celsius even while playing games)

I have a Dell Latitude E6420 with an Intel Core i7 processor and 4gb of RAM. Lately, my computer has become very sluggish; especially after coming out of sleep mode to the point I have to restart to have a decent performance. More importantly, often when in sleep mode or hibernation, the computer crashes. I've run two spyware programs (spybot and Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware) which removed a few issues, but the core problems persist. I've updated all microsoft programs (windows and office), run Norton virus scans, and CCleaner, but no change. Finally, I must say that at times the laptop runs really hot. That was never the case before.

My computer crashes right after it wakes up from sleep mode.I used MSDaRT to diagnose the problem, and obtained a Analysis.log file, but I can't figure out where the problem is.Here is a copy of the contents of the file:
