Computer Will Not Boot Up To The Login Screen, Occasional BSOD Flashes?

Dec 12, 2011

My computer is running on a Windows 7 Home Premium OS, it's about two years old, Lenovo brand. I won the computer a while back, and do not have a Windows 7 Op.disk. The problem is, a while back I got this virus called Wolfram Antivirus software, and tried to do everything I could to remove it. It was a pain. The thing is, I think I might have accidentally deleted something in RegEdit, and now my computer (on the ultra rare occasion that it gets to and past the login screen) will tell me that it has encountered a critical error, and will restart in 1 minute.When it does reboot, what will happen, is it will get to the picture of the swirling Windows symbol, but then reboot before making it to login screen. Then it will ask me to do a system repair or start up normally, because it shut down unusually

BSOD Randomly When Playing Games/streaming?

Dec 5, 2011

I have done a fresh install with hopes of it possibly being a driver error but I believe it may be an hardware issue as I just had another BSOD while playing a game. On a side note this is usually when I get the BSOD either playing a game or trying to livestream, which leaves me to believe it maybe is a RAM/GPU error.

Anyways I've attached the required rar/zip files from that program I ran from how to post BSOD thread

BSOD While Playing Video, Games And Randomly?

Jul 17, 2012

ever since last friday i have been getting bsod. my occured while playing lotro (lord of the rings online, mmo) and while playing windowd i tried to play a Internet video. which has never given me any problems before. also msn and some other firefox tabs were open.then saturday and sunday more bsod came in. during browsing, during doing nothing, on the windows inlog screen. i can't really put my finger on it. putting load on the system doesn't trigger it, nor does firefox, lotro, seems a bit random.only software stuff that changed since friday is a java update, daily avira anti virus definitions update and i installed guild wars 2.i tried to look at the bluescreens logs myself, but i really have no clue what i'm looking at, so if you could check for me that would be awesome.

system:
windows 7 home premium x64
intel core 2 e6600
4 gig of ddr2
nvidea geforce 8800 gts with latest driver i could find
all the windows updates installed

BSOD Randomly (Playing Games / Downloading) Error 0x0000001a

Jan 20, 2013

I am experiencing BSOD at random times. This is frustrating because I am pretty sure I eliminated all the possible reasons for my computer to Blue Screen. I changed my motherboard, I scanned my hard drive, got all the drivers for my video cards, etc. I also checked my ram one by one.

Now here is what info I got on my crash dump files
On Sat 19/01/2013 6:32:11 PM GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:WindowsMinidump 11913-46285-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x7EFC0)
Bugcheck code: 0x1A (0x41287, 0x40, 0x0, 0x0)
Error: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
file path: C:Windowssystem32
toskrnl.exe
[Log] .....

This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time. Also when it Blue Screens I was able to get a copy of what the Technical information that caused the blue screen.

STOP: 0x0000001a (0x0000000000041287, 0x0000000000000040, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000

BSOD Flashes For A Second Then Crashes On Startup After Switching HDD?

Feb 2, 2012

I have 2 laptops, the one mentioned here Supervirus and a new one. I was trying to see if swapping the hard drives would fix it, but it didn't. So I swapped them back and when I tried to turn on the new working computer I keep getting a BSOD flash for a split second before it crashes the laptop. I have many many important photos and school papers etc on it and I want to recover them ASAP. But I can't even log into the laptop because it will show the loading windows 7 animation for a few seconds, freeze, and do the BSOD then crash. I have a computer that I can use to burn any cd's or flash drives or w/e but I need to get those documents off the laptop. When I tried to do system restore the first time didn't work and gave me an error code. The second time it worked but when I tried to boot up the same thing happened.

Sudden Black Screen While Playing Games + Random BSOD?

Dec 6, 2012

OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q 740 @ 1.73GHz, Intel64 Family 6 Model 30 Stepping 5
Processor Count: 8
RAM: 8117 Mb
Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470, 1024 Mb
Motherboard: ASUSTeK Computer Inc., K42Jr
Antivirus: Norton Internet Security, Updated and Enabled

I would get a random black screen while playing an online game on my laptop (this happens randomly but usually 15-30mins after starting Windows and start playing the game). After the black screen appeared, it would automatically reboot to this windows error recovery page with options to go into safe mode (networking/command prompt) or just boot windows normally.I chose to boot Windows normally but after getting into Windows 7 and started playing a while, a random BSOD would appear. It has happened for 2-3 days straight. The attached is the mini dump.

Note: I did not install anything new to my laptop, I have ran chkdsk and sfc /scannow and found nothing.I have no idea what caused the black screen and the BSOD.

Screen Flashes When On Battery Power?

Nov 11, 2012

I just completed a fresh install of Windows 7 on my Dell XPS 17. For some reason, when the computer is on battery power and is idle, the screen will flicker. Basically if I am on battery power, the moment I stop typing or using the mouse, the screen will flicker after about a second. Then as soon as I resume using the computer, it will flicker again. It will also flash at random other times... Only when on battery power (so far).As I mentioned, I just completed a fresh install of windows 7 after reformatting my drive because of virus issues. I did have some issues with getting drivers installed and still have have that are missing (see attached photo). I have not been able to get these drivers to install. One thought I had is that the screen issue may be a result of improperly installed graphics drivers? Just a thought. System Info:

Screen Flashes When In Computer Management

Oct 27, 2009

Apologies if this has been covered, I have tried looking but can't find any previous mention, although having used this excellent forum for a few months this is my first posting, so sorry if I am not doing this correctly !

I have carried out a clean install of Win 7 Home Rremium (retail full version) on a new hard drive. The problem that I have noticed is that when you are in Computer Management, you can view everything OK apart from Disk Management when you view this it works OK but when you then try to view any other menu (Event Viewer, Device Manager etc.),

the text on the screen flashes like it was refreshing, however it continues to do so until you exit. If you then go back in again and select anything other than Disk Management it works OK until you select Disk Management (which works OK), but on selecting another menu, the screen starts flashing again.

This only happens when you go from Disk Management to something else.

I have reinstalled my old Vista hard drive and everything works OK, so I dont think that it is a hardware issue, but something with Windows 7.

Windows 7 HP Computer Will Not Complete Backup - Screen Flashes

Mar 27, 2011

I have window seven Hp pavilion 64 bit, 4 ghz sp1, computer and I have never had so many problems. I have done at least 4 system restores. The screen flashes, I have adjusted monitor display size. Computer will not complete a backup. I hear my dvd drive making noises. The computer is slow. Could not install adobe reader until last night. My last index number was 3.3 to 2.6 and now it says 3.3. I don't know what my default browser is, firefox, and windows tell me they are not.

How do I find out if I have malware, virus and or browser is jacked? My prairie form cleaner shows me my computer is collecting large files or daily activity. Also, I want to know if my computer is recording, how can I tell? I want to make sure the back door is closed. I have scanned with Norton, Windows Defender, Avast and AVG over the time and I have had at least 4 items to return. 3 items were removed 1 quarantined and I have done restores since then.

Small Dotted Colorful Distortion Flashes Right Before Login Screen?

Sep 9, 2012

after reformatting my windows 7, my sony laptop came up with a weird screen problem. I have updated/re-installed graphic cards etc and even reformatted and same problem. Before the reformatting it didn't use to happen.Basically this happens:Right after "Starting Windows" boot screen and animation finishes, It flashes a bunch of small colored dotted distortions at the top of the screen. It only flashes this once right before the Log in Screen. No other problems occur after that.Tried "No GUI Boot" still didnt fix it.I assume the backlight/inverter is failing?

Dropping Randomly To Desktop While Playing Games?

Apr 13, 2012

I've lately had this weird issue while im playing games, it just drops to desktop every 5 minutes, and if i press any letters on my keyboard it makes a sound as if a program denies it (don't really know how too explain it better, hopefully you understand). There is no error or such, i can just click again on the game icon, but it will dropp out after 5 minutes.This happens also while i surf the internett and do other stuff. The drops dont always occure, but when they do, they occure every 5 minutes, almost precisely, as if it was scheduled or something.Ive tried reinstalling graphic card, sound drivers, and installing older versions with no luck. I've tried closing almost all active programs (including desktop manager and sidebar), without any luck.It seems as i have some kind of invisible program

PC Randomly Freezes When Watch Videos / Play Games

Jan 9, 2013

I built a PC the middle of last year, and ever since I've been having freezing problems. Either when I'm watching a video, or playing a game at random times my PC will completely freeze, forcing me to reboot. I've found (testing different RAM, scanning for viruses, updating the bios/video card drivers, etc.) and so far nothing has worked. Here are my specs:

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z68 DELUXE/GEN3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68
Processor: Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz
Video Card: HIS Radeon HD 6970 2GB 256-bit GDDR5
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 900W
RAM: 16GB

I also have a pretty big case [URL] with two large fans. At first I thought the card might be overheating, but even under a heavy load the highest temp it ever reached was 81 degrees (and that was only once while rendering an effects heavy video). I don't necessarily want to reinstall windows 7, but I'll try that too if I have to.
