Dell XPS 630 Constantly Crashing?

Aug 12, 2012

I figured I'd give it a shot. I apologize in advance if this is not ok.I recently returned home from a weeks absence and now my XPS 630 is completely unstable.Problem: Boots to windows, works fine for a random period of time (usually 5-10 minutes) and then crashes. When it first started it was blue screening and like an idiot I didn't get any information off of there. Now it just goes completely black and makes a long beep until I manually power it down.Event log gives me an event ID 41 Kernal Power.Changes I've made since I've been home.

1. Reset my router so that I could reconfigure it to be a little more secure.

2. Added a new laptop to the home group (NOT the machine having problems).

3. Installed Itunes.

4. Installed NewsRover.

My first step was to try and system restore back to before the ITUNES. That failed because of a lock up. I then system restored back to when I installed itunes which was successful. The problem persisted. I then just went for a re-installation of Windows 7 (was being impatient). This was successful. Problem still occurs.I ran a a diagnostics test from the Bios and received this

Windows 7 Pro Crashing Constantly?

Feb 19, 2012

I'm at my wits end here trying to figure out why this system is crashing.I'm using the fully updated Windows 7 Pro and the for some reason In have programs that are using 40-50% of the cpu just prior to a system crash. IDvault was the first progam to do this so I went into safe mode and removed the related Norton program.Then Google Chrome did the same thing so I removed it. Now Steam is doing the same thing. After each removal the system works fine for a short period of time. Without removal it simply crashed without any error message. After the last crash the sytem diagnostic in safe mode found that 'superfetch' was not running.After a reboot to regular windows the system worked again.I have not been able to reload Norton the program will download but not run.I have run Windows Defender and Microsoft Safety Scanner but they have not located any virus and the system just crashed again but this time without any associated high cpu usage.

BSOD: Bad_pool_caller! Constantly Crashing

May 12, 2011

I had posted another forum post on the games section where I kept getting this bluescreen error when I played WoW. However today the issue occured even when I didn't run the game so I think its just a general problem now.I wiped my entire computer, reupdated all my drivers and reinstalled windows 7 and wow to try to fix the problem, but no luck. I though the problem was my memory at first, so I did several memory diagnosis tests and tried different sticks of RAM (current using 8g) and they all passed and no errors came up on the windows memory diagnosis tests. I also went to the alienware website and re-downloaded all the drivers for my M17 model, and I updated windows about 50 times.I will provide my system specs and my minidump files below for you techy's to take a look:

OS NameMicrosoft Windows 7 Professional
Version6.1.7600 Build 7600
Other OS Description Not Available
OS ManufacturerMicrosoft Corporation

Display Driver Is Constantly Crashing?

Jan 24, 2012

for about 2 months now my display driver is constantly crashing. I have to boot up in safe mode to stop the worries of the crashing. What'll happen is, I'll be doing something simple, possibly even playing a low graphic game such a Minecraft oropening a .txt file, and the screen will freeze and start flickering black. It'll come back to the desktop and say something along the lines of "Realtek Display Driver has crashed and successfully recovered." Yes, it's recovered, yayy, but no about 10 seconds later it'll keep crashing, until the extent of where the screen just is stuck on a black screen. I'm really getting angered by this, if any help can be provided, please post below.

Windows 7 Constantly Crashing On High End System?

Dec 3, 2012

I have just built a "Dream Machine" for the purpose of graphic design, and other intensive activities (though not gaming, as this is a work PC!).I won't go into all of the specifications, however the PC does use a Gigabyte X79-UP4 motherboard, and I have 16 Gigs of Patriot Viper Extreme (PC 17000) memory installed. Initial FSB / RAM results are shown below:I also installed 2 x Samsung 830 SSDs in RAID 0!The hard drive transfer rates are truly out of this world -The read speed is close to 1 Gbps...almost made it!!!Now that I have built an impressive PC I am having trouble making it behave, it is a bit like a wild stallion, full of raw power, but quite frankly untamed!Windows 7 (x64) is constantly crashing, it crashes about every 20 minutes, and it doesn't seem to matter whether the PC is doing work or not.

I have setup the RAM to use an Xtreme Memory Profile, which runs at 2133 MHz, which is not an issue for my RAM (as this is the RAMs) natural running speed.*** At any rate I plan to test the RAM for a good 48 hours using MemTest to see if there are any issues on this front ***I am thinking that there may be a conflict between the motherboards RAID chipset and the SSDs, in so far as perhaps the motherboard can't keep up with the SSDs.

Windows 7 Explorer Constantly Crashing (folders With Images In Them)?

Sep 24, 2012

Windows explorer crashes with the error message "Windows Explorer has stopped working" whenever I click on any folder that has a RAW image file (.CR2) or a TIFF/PSD image file in it. It then shuts down and restarts. It only happens with these large image files, not video, audio, or pdf files.I'm running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium. My computer did two lengthy Windows updates over the last week when I did system restarts, so maybe that has something to do with it?I spent the whole day yesterday trying different suggestions I found on the web and nothing has worked. Here's some of the things that I've tried that have been unsuccessful:

- Selected "Always show icons, never thumbnails" in "Folder options / View".- Scanned my computer with Malwarebytes. Same problem after the scan/cleanup.- Tried do a System Restore on 6 different restore points and none of them could complete the Restore successfully.- Tried to do a System Restore on the same restore points in safe mode and it still couldn't do it.- Ran SFC/ scan, still does the same thing afterwards.- Updated my video card driver.- Tried different image codec packs.- Uninstalled all image codec packs.- Some selective startup or clean boot stuff through "msconfig" that didn't help.- Plus a few other things that I can't even remember (it was a late night!) to use Photoshop and work with these images for my line of work so I'm kind of at a standstill until I get this resolved.

Notepad, Calculator And Windows Explorer Constantly Crashing

Nov 25, 2012

I've been having a few issues recently with some programs with reside within the system32 folder, as said in the title paint, notepad and calculator. Explorer is having a different issue so I'll discuss it later. The 3 programs listed are constantly crashing. Notepad and calculator are having significantly bigger issues than paint right now, however they all have the same issue. Whenever I open one of these programs, it'll either be a few letter (numbers for calculator) and it'll crash, with the generic error message "xxxx has stopped working, Windows is searching for a solution". This problem happens consistently. Explorer on the other hand, is behaving oddly. Every couple days (sometimes multiple times in a day) my toolbar will not pop itself back up (I have it set to autohide). While the trace of the hidden toolbar is visible, no moving of the mouse (even when on the desktop to avoid 'always on top' programs taking priority) on the toolbar will bring it back up. This usually results in just killing explorer.exe and re-running it.

Sony Vaio Applications Constantly Crashing/sound Lags?

Mar 24, 2012

A few days ago my computer started acting a bit wonky, certain applications running slowly and eventually crashing. I assumed this was caused by some sort of Trojan or other virus and I scanned my computer with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and MSE. Nothing came up for MBAM but there were three issues with MSE, two I then rooting in some java app. I thought this was the issue but it continued. The computer starts up fine and I haven't had BSOD so far, but not application, even explorer browsers, freeze up within 30 seconds of use. The issue with the sound lagging was just at first noticed with a few games I played. The announced messages would stutter for a minute even though it was a 3 second phrase.I'm posting this from my phone because I'm running a chkdsk scan on my computer again, but nothing showed up the first time.

Monitor Crashing / Dell Dimension 4550 / Radeon Card

Nov 25, 2009

When monitor started crashing in XP Professional (up to that point --great operating system) couldn't find any upgrade for Radeon Display Adapter driver so decided to upgrade to Windows 7-surely updated driver included. Windows 7 installed fine but did not fix monitor problem--had to repeatedly restart computer to get to dos repair.

After hours of online research finally discovered the following link for ATI Radeon video card driver. It is a Vista driver but works in Windows 7. Be sure to download driver that works with your system configuration.

It Is Freezing Constantly

Dec 9, 2011

I am having huge problems with my pc. I very rarely use is as my wife and kids tend to always be on it but, when I've come to try and use it, it freezes all the time for about 5 minutes, then works for a few more minutes before freezing again with the message (not responding) at the top. My wife tells me it's been like this for months and months. I've tried everything on the Norton 360 package that I have but nothing at all seems to speed it up. I've spoken to the tech guys who supply my broadband and after running several tests they insist it's not a broadband problem. I don't know what to do next to try to get rid of this problem.

Mouse Lag Constantly On New PC?

Aug 21, 2012

i recently built a new gaming pc around a week ago with the specs:

Operating System
MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz31 �C
Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
RAM
8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard

[code].....

When i first built it i was getting mouse lag of a split second and started getting the blue screen of death, so i then took my pc back to the shop in which i got the parts and they fixed it by replacing my ram i think.But even though they looked at it and re-installed windows im still getting mouse lag. It's not a HUGE problem when doing simple tasks like browsing the web ect.. but when im trying to play games like counter strike its just frustrating to play and trying to be accurate is a task in a half.Just to be clear, what i mean by mouse lag is a tiny delay from me moving the mouse and it displaying which is a fraction of a second but it's very noticeable.Ive tried using various mouses and tweaking the mouse settings in the controll panel and downloading the drivers that i know of but no matter what i do, there is always a slight lag of the mouse. I'm unsure if it's a hardware problem or software but i cant seem to figure it out and i want to try and find the source of the problem before resorting to going back to the shop because it will cost me to get their service and its a really long drive away.

Computer Fan Run Almost Constantly

May 9, 2011

My desktop computer fan runs incessantly. Even when it is in a cool environment, it runs almost constantly. Even when it is not supposed to be doing anything, it will be running. This drives me nuts; what can I do about it?

Also, as an aside, I have noticed that, when I access the Internet or something else on my *other* computer, a laptop, or even iPhone, on the same router network, the fan starts running on the desktop computer.

Computer Is Constantly Rebooting?

Jun 11, 2011

I have a dell optiplex 360 that is running windows 7. I added a video card geforce 7950 gt, at the time when I added this the computer was running fine for months. Then I upgraded the power supply to a raidmax rx730ss because the video card needed the 6 pin power supply that the old psu didn't have. After I installed the new PSU the computer would start running the post (dell logo screen) finish the load bar, go to a black screen then reboot and start running post again. the computer does this indefinitely as far as I can tell.I installed the old power supply and it did the exact same thing.

Windows 7 Constantly Goes Back To Log In?

May 22, 2012

It is running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium with 4 gigs of Ram.The problem they are having is that as soon as they stop working with any program, game,etc. the computer will go back to the log in menu and wait until their password has been entered. Once it does, it will go back to where it was. I was running Windows Update and it did it then. It is so weird to see it part way through an update download and have it go back to the sign in.I've tried the following:

1.I reset all setting to Never so that the computer should never go to sleep.

2.I deleted the password on the computer.Now my friend doesn't need to log in but the computer still waits for her to click on the administrative icon before it goes back to Windows.

I don't understand this problem. I've looked all over the net and even supposed to have solved the problems by several of the posts but it just doesn't work. I can't understand that if the computer is "NEVER" supposed to go to sleep why it is!
