Windows 7 64bit Crashes After First Reboot Following Install
Jun 23, 2010
I built a machine using the following components:
Gigabyte GV-N98TSL-1GB Fanless 9800GT 1GB GDDR3 PCI-E
Gigabyte GA-770TA-UD3 (rev 1.0)
Processor: AMD K2 2800MHz
Corsair: 2 x 2GB 1066MHz DDR3
HDD: Seagate 2 x 2TB ST32000542AS
Memory has been testing using program from [URL].I'm trying to install Windows 7 64-bit.I built another machine with the same motherboard, processor and RAM which works fine. The differences being between the two machines the Harddisks and Graphics card.On the machine I�m having problems with I have two Seagate ST32000542AS 2TB setup as RAID harddisks and a Gigabyte graphics card.Windows 7 installs but after the first boot from the HDD it displays "Starting Windows" and then resets or displays the blue crash screen. I tried running in safe mode list drivers as it is booting. After disk.sys is loaded the computer freezes.I�ve tried using the latest AMD RAID drivers from the gigabyte website for this motherboard during the installation, but now I�m starting to think this maybe a graphics card driver problem � are there any known issues with the Gigabyte graphics card I�m using and Windows 7?Is there a way of loading the Graphics card driver automatically.

I installed windows 7 on a fresh, quick formatted Ocz Agility 3 hard drive. Everything worked fine until first reboot then during checking of register files it rebooted and got error bootmgr missing.What can be the cause of this?I tried repair with the install disk, and when the repair console searches for windows 7 versions it find two versions one with zero size and the other 110000 something bytes.I tried bootrec/ScanOs, no Os shows up maybe reflecting the zero size version. How can i resolve this issue?

My wife's PC refused to reboot about a week ago and after many attempts we eventually gave up trying to recover it and reinstalled from scratch. The history of that is over here. WIN7 won't boot. What should I do before trying a clean install? The PC was rebuilt with Windows 7 64 OEM and because my system disk is only 80GB I followed the directions from this post to locate the user and user apps data folders on the other disk. User Profiles - Create and Move During Windows 7 Installation, Windows update has now installed over 150 updates including SP1 and rebooted successfully many times along the way. However this morning at powerup the PC crashed back to black and rebooted twice before successfully starting up. It has now run quite happily all day. What should I do to monitor what is happening and capture as much info as possible so that if this happens again I capture what is going wrong?

We have a new build for a friend's Media Center, and for the first time ever with Windows 7, I am having an issue with the installation that I can not isolate.
The System:
AMD Phenom II X4 955
Gigabyte 8900GPA-UD3H
2 x Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (KHX1600C9D3B1K2/4GX)
4x Seagate 1.5GB SATAII ST31500341AS (in RAID 5)
LITE-ON SATA CD/DVD Burner (iHAS124-04)
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 X64
We tried installing to multiple system drives, and they all end up completing the installation, rebooting, but reboot just as the flag starts to cycle in. no BSOD, no error messages, just reboots every time. Safe mode gets as far as achix64s.sys, (which leads us to think some kind of drive/er or controller issue) then reboots.
We have tried:
setting the BIOS to all available combinations of RAID, AHCI, and IDE modes
Updated drivers (even though Windows 7 has recognized all the drives right off)
isolated all the memory sticks 1 by 1
different cables, drives, and PSU
swapped the mouse pad, just in case...
We also each went over it separately to eliminate potential PEBKAC, but each got the same results.

I have just built a system with the following specs and Windows is crashing after rebooting during the install process, I've tried installing without the RAID card installed into the PCI-e slot. The video card cannot be removed with the Core i5 CPU, it must be in there for this CPU from what I understand.I have not installed any drivers (i.e. for the RAID card, video card, etc). I'm using a USB mouse and USB keyboard. I've tried running windows without any USB ports in use and I still get the same result.!

When I remove the power cord of a cpu while working, it often makes windows 7 crashes hard. When that happens, Windows 7 by default makes a system restore. Since we don't want that, we removed this option. Since the system restore has been desactivated, Windows 7 reboot over and over again. I have to reinstall. Sometimes, even the safe mode is not working. This scenario does not happen every time because sometimes Windows 7 succeeds in "getting back" online.

It all started last weekend when I was trying to run Red Faction II, I changed the advanced boot configuration to use 2048 memory because apparently the game will not run otherwise (I did a lot of forum checking to find this solution). I was able to play the game fine, and there were no errors with my computer for a long while. Then I was playing Borderlands and my computer froze (The screen had many broken lines of color from the game and was playing a nonstop sound). After I rebooted the system and logged into my computer to check to see what the error was, it crashed again, only this time it went to the screen where it dumps the physical memory.Since then I was able to get the computer stable enough to use, but have not managed to find the error. I restored the boot settings to normal, and have ran memtest two times, and checked for errors in the hard drive once. Yesterday I tried running Borderlands Two and it crashed in a similar way to when I ran Borderlands, approximately 20-30 minutes after game start. I still have yet to be able to pinpoint the exact error causing these crashes.I checked my system logs and the only critical error I can find is kernal-power, I can paste the details upon request, but this gives no real information other than unexpected shut down.
I have checked other threads but was unable to find a solution, and I am currently unsure if it is a hardware problem or software problem. Initially I thought it was my RAM but tests indicated no errors.note: I have two different brands and sizes of RAM cards, but this has never been an error before, and I have run games extensively on this machine. It has been able to run such games as Skyrim, Borderlands, Minecraft, and various other games on the highest graphical settings with no problems.
System info: I'm pasting all things that I think may be relevant, sorry if it is a lot

I am running windows 7 ultimate x64 and have a quick question. I notice when my computer updates itself and goes for a restart, after the computer has rebooted all of the programs that were left open also restart. Is there a way to turn this feature off?Basically I'm looking for way to stop the opening of programs after a reboot, forced or not.

I have problems entering windows after the first installation of Windows 7 64 bit built 7000.After seconds the welcome (splash) screen appears, the windows suddenly reboot automaticaly.After that, black screen appears with dashes blinking.(Actually, my current OS is Windows 7 32 bit built 7600, but I think it isn't cause of the problems. I have formatted the local drive, in which my current OS was installed, before I install Win 7 64 bit).

These are my system specs:
PSU: Arctic Cooling 550
MOBO: Asus M5A78L
VGA: Club 3D Radeon HD 6870
Fans: 2 x 120mm
CPU: Amd Phenom II X4 955BE + stock heatsink
Wifi: TP-LINK TL-WN781ND
RAM: 2x2gb DDR3 Corsair Value (DDR1333)
HDD: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB
Optical drive: Samsung SH-S222AB 22x DVD/CD SATA
Randomly (for example: while surfing the internet), on Windows 7, the computer crashes with a screen with blue and grey vertical stripes (or sometimes totally grey or black). Sometimes this screen "hides" a BSoD, sometimes it doesn't. The system crashes only if video drivers are installed. On Ubuntu 11.04 (64-bit) and Windows XP (32bit), even after installing the drivers, there are no crashes. From BlueScreenView, all crashes look identical.
I tried:
- 2 passes of Memtest86+: 0 issues
- Installing Windows 7 and then ONLY the video drivers: CRASH
- Installing XP 32-bit SP2 and the drivers: does not crash
- Using Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit: does not crash
- Uninstalling the drivers: does not crash
- Safe mode: does not crash (obviously)

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and have recently encountered a few problems. First (and I'm not sure if this is related), the computer would easily overheat and then cpu usage would skyrocket to 100%, and I wouldn't be able to do anything. After running a virus scan (TrendMicro) and Malwarebytes, I got nothing, and I figured it was just my computer(a DELL Latitude E6400, which usually has overheating problems). This might still be the case. The new problem is that when using Netflix, Microsoft Silverlight plugin crashes. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all of my browsers, cleared the caches and done everything suggested to me.

running Windows 7 home 64bit
problem is theres no 64-bit version of adobe flash player. so I started using the 32-bit version of IE so I can use flash. every now and then it says "internet explorer has stopped working" ect.. says its checking for a solution to the problem and no solution exists of course
so anyway its prolly because its the 32-bit version and they didnt bother testing it enough on the 64 bit OS.
anyone else experiencing this?

So I'm trying to install Windows 7 via XP SP2 but every time I try it gets to the expanding files part(27%) and cancels the whole installation saying Windows could not prepare the computer too boot into the next phase. I ran a chkdsk scan on the drive and unplugged all USB devices and some people said that Windows couldn't find the HDD Controllers so I installed my chipset drivers too but still nothing.I can't really format these partitions(especially C: since I need the XP installation on it to install Win 7)What could be cause of this? Can a damaged or missing bootsector(or bootmgr) be to blame?

I do a fresh install of Windows 7 and I have purchased a new hard drive as well as tried it on 2 others. After I do the install odd things happen like long pauses when opening windows like control panel, IE and others. The real trouble begins win I reboot the Pc it then runs a check disk and finds and removes errors. Each time it reboots, check disk and loads windows it takes longer and longer until windows will not boot. I've tried loading all the drivers and none of them. I loading Windows 7 via the disk.

I recently had a virus on my computer and did a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate. Now it seems that randomly my processes will stop responding, usually if I have a couple things running at once. I cant seem to burn a DVD because every time it will crash during it. Usually when it happens all the processes wont respong, task manager wont come up and a couple minutes later my system restarts. I have run a memtest and it turned up with no errors.

I built my own custom PC through parts I ordered from newegg last week. Putting the computer together was surprisingly the easy part, while installing a windows OS has been ridiculous. I tried installing windows xp for a few days after running into 0x7b bsod errors, finally getting it to the point it would set up and then would reboot and put the monitor in sleep mode. I tried vista which just immediately gave me the "putting the monitor to sleep" thing right after it said "starting windows." Now i'm trying windows 7 and I once again can't do it. It boots up and does the setting up windows bar, then when it goes to "starting windows" it reboots itself, and does that on repeat. I really hope somebody can help, it's incredibly disheartening to spend $500+ just to have it do anything within its power to not work. I've tried unplugging everything that isn't neccesary, running 1 stick of RAM, I've tried setting it to IDE, RAID, and HCPI. I have tried 2 separate Windows 7 discs. I've reformatted the HD (using xp) multiple times and tried multiple partitions. Windows 7 simply wont even let me get into the installation portion. [code]

I have vista on my first partition, 7rc on the third (second is vista data).
I had read about how you could upgrade from the release candidate and wanted to try it. Everything seemed to go fine, until the very final reboot. (Windows was upgraded to the new version). I saw my regular boot menu again, but then windows restarted the machine one last time, and when it came back up it just sat there, nothing happened forever. And Vista won't boot anymore either - I do not even get a boot menu. Just a blank screen with a flashing cursor, and nothing happening....
I tried the repair options, but windows can't find any of my system restore points (I did set a number of them!) neither vista nor 7. From a command prompt I did try to run bcdedit and it shows that my original boot menu should still be there, but the system is unable to find it. I am completely stumped. Can someone please indicate what to do to get my system to boot?

I tried to uninstall IE9 several months ago because I was told it was conflicting w/ Firefox. After I uninstalled it through control panel the folder and its contents were still on the hard drive. I manually deleted everything but the IEproxy.dll. I could not remove this because it was in use by windows explorer. Now I want to re-install IE9. The install starts but then I get the message that some files were in use by WE restart the CPU to use IE9. After restart all that is in the IE folder is the EIproxy.dll and a folder called SignUp. In that folder is a couple of Icons and nothing else. I have tried installing in safe mode. I can not do a restore because I have no idea when the first change was made and I have installed far to many programs to turn back now. I have tried FixIt which does not help. Is there a way to disable the IEproxy so that the IE install can proceed.

So, Im doing a clean windows 7 install. Here are the facts: [code] After the final stage of the setup where you enter PC name, set the password, enter time settings etc, the setup restarts the computer for the 'final' time, final indeed.What happens is that after the Bios / device scan, Windows won't boot and it won't continue past the black screen with the white blinking _ showing in the top left.Could this be because C: has been 'occupied' (or set as master partition) by the 1480GB partition and won't boot from the 105GB partition where Windows was installed?It's so weird because the first two reboots go without problem, no need to F8 and manually select the disk rather than the USB pen or anything.. But on the final reboot, nothing.

I am trying to install Sabrina, the Teenage Witch: Spellbound on my 64bit Home Premium copy of Windows 7. The launcher runs when I put the disc in, but when I click install I get the following message: The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need a x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.I've tried running the game in Windows 98 Compatibility Mode and as Administrator but with no results!

I tried this the other day thinking that since it was 10.1 it would fly, well it didn't. It took forever and then refused to go any further so I cancelled the install.Should I have used " Run as Admin" on this one? or what?
