I'm having a problem where if I double click on a video or a picture, my screen goes to a pixleated green screen, then when I hit ctrl-alt-del, it goes to a pixelated blue screen. When this happens, I hear the video card fan go to full speed and I have to restart to fix the problem. If I drag the picture or video into media player first, it works great.
I've seen these screens before when I had video driver issues with another compuer. I have the Nvidia driver 8.15.11.8172 installed now. When I tried to upgrade to the190.38 drivers, I got the green screen of failure on start up, and had to reboot in safe mode and roll back the drivers.
I've been getting the BSOD when trying to open pictures or videos. I thought it was due to installing DirectX 9.0, but I've since reinstalled Windows 7 RC and started fresh again. Now get this. Everything worked fine. I used the 'generic' video driver that gets installed with Windows 7 RC and just upped the resolution to 1280 x 1024.
It worked and looked great, even pics and vids worked, but anything that was graphically taxing became very choppy and pixelated; especially videos. So I installed the drivers that came w/ the Gfx card, everything runs smooth and crisp, but I'm no longer able to look at pics or vids. I get the BSOD every single time. This leads me to believe that the Gfx card driver is the issue. Any known fixes for this?
Any game I try to play in windows 7 x64 just produces a black screen when run causing me to reboot as I can't press any keys to come out.
I have already tried the usual things disabling my firewall, anti virus, trying different drivers I am currently using version 185.85 as none above this seem to work or none at all seem to work!
I dual boot with vista x64 and strangely the games work fine in vista x64 but no go in windows 7.
I also have installed direct x9 from microsoft's website
I recently got a projector from a friend and im trying to setup dual screen.
First of all im a bit confused by the Graphics Card itself. I looked for pictures of the card which my computer recognizes as a nVidia GeForce 8500 GT and none have a HDMI port but mine does. So i opened the case and the card has ATI and Foxconn written on it but nothing with nVidia on it.
I have a HDMI to VGA cable which im trying to use to go to my monitor but when i plug it in while switched on i get nothing on the monitor but the projector still works and if i plug it in then boot I get no output on my monitor and just just a black screen and the mouse pointer on my monitor.
I cannot get fullscreen DX10 games to stay that way. DX9 versions of these games work fine, but when DX10 is used a single tray popup from any messenger that someone has signed in or out takes me out of fullscreen. Desktop composition visual themes compatibility mode and updating DirectX did not help. Does anyone have any ideas?
OS: Windows 7 RTM x64
Latest nVidia drivers though problem has persisted since installing Windows 7 through all driver updates.
one day it suddenly crashed while i was watching a movie. it displayed random patterns on screen. kinda like part of the image from the video is on the screen then a black strip and random colors. I restarted the unit to safe mode and left it on and browsed the net and downloaded some big files for how many hours and nothing happened.. there are also times when windows is still loading with the windows logo on screen, it crashes. there are also times when the login screen is displayed and it crashes. it just crashes randomly! so i tried to reformat it. i deleted the partitions and created a new one, formatted it then fresh installed windows 7 ( my previous OS is windows 7 by the way) and started installing the basic drivers and after a few hours, it crashed again...thinking that the driver installed might not be compatible, i tried another fresh install of windows (same execution, delete partition, create, install OS) and this time, without installing the drivers, it crashed again after a few hours... sometimes it crashes immediately after turning it on from cold start!
Blue screen and freezing. This is happening frequently but never has any regularity to it. Sometimes happens after a couple of days and sometimes after a couple of minutes. Also sometimes with only one browser window open and sometimes with 15 or more. Happens with both chrome and firefox. Has not happened with other programs as this lapy only gets used for surfing/email/forums etc. Sometimes happens while the computer is sitting idle right after boot. Very strange.

I'm assuming it's a BIOS driver problem, but i'll leave it up to you guys to tell me, you're the experts :P I also tried doing a system restore, but for whatever reason when I try it just says the restore is initializing and it sits on that screen and never does anything. I've left it for about an hour before and still nothing, not real sure what the problem is there either. Right now I'm running the laptop off safe mode with networking and it's working fine, hopefully it's just a driver problem I can fix.
I'm on Windows 7 32bit and let me know if you need any more information.
i have a windows 7x64.Yesterday while watching videos my screen started jumping and crashed to a blue screen with(QPR is not less or equal i think) and after that i restarted and it came with other errors.Now when i switch on the laptop it only shows black screen with no option to do anything.
i have NVIDIA GeForce 7900 but it wont install in my windows 7 Ultimate,i use Mobile Intel(R) 45 Express Chipset Family(Microsoft Corporation). when i try to uninstall my graphic cards to install NVIDIA GeForce 7900 it installs but does not work
ive just installed the latest version of windows seven and get a bleuscreen when im in the desktop.. nothing was installed. the bleuscreen sayd something with a driver_equal or somthing.
Since i have added my windows 7 installation to the domain i often get afd.sys blue screens. It seems to occur when i access a network resource. Any ideas?
I just installed Windows 7 64-bit last night, and the installation went without a hitch. I started to install my programs and then things started to get a little hairy. Every once in a while (ranging 3 minutes - 3 hours) my computer will blue screen out with a mention of afd.sys. This usually happens when I try to do something with the network (ex: Skype, Trillian, etc.).
I'm too new to this to know how to read minidumps, so I thought I'd give them to you guys and see how you could help me. I'm up for any suggestions on how to fix this problem. Reformatting is not an issue, as I have time to spare (when I'm not at work). My system specs are up to date in my profile.
I'm getting a blue screen when playing video games and I don't know what might be causing it. It says that the video memory manager is doing something which I don't remember exactly what now and at the end of the blue screen it says
Stop: 0x0000010E follow by a lot of other similar codes in ( ). what the problem might be and what I can do to fix it?
I run windows 7 home premium and this morning for no apparent reason when I plugged in my USB stick my computer blue screened, I tried restarting it and the same thing happened, I tested my usb on a different computer and it was fine, I tired both ports on my laptop and the same thing happened on both. The same thing happened when I plugged in a different usb stick, but the usb mouse and webcam work fine.
I was just searching the internet- probably on facebook 2 past Friday when (I think) I opened a new tab on Firefox, and everything closed and shut down. Now, it had shut down like this before a couple days before.. However, this time a blue screen of death appeared right after I went into normal mode after the restart.
I tried it in safe mode.. I am able to get in to the log in screen.. then the waiting screen.. then the BSOD. I've heard that it's supposed to tell you what the problem is, but I still don't know what it is. I have some pictures below. They're pretty bad though because I only see it for a second before it disappears.
I've tried diagnostics and repair.. Restoring to 2 weeks ago- spring break. Taking out my "new" devises (memory drives and graphics card) that I installed more than 3 months ago and replacing the memory with the ones it came with. The only thing that I THINK I haven't tried is command prompt (which probably won't help because I don't know how to use it) and the restore to factory setting. I have clicked on it, and it has given me an error (pictures follow.) F2-F8-F12- pressed them all.
BSOD 0x6b - Process1 initialization etc 64 bit machine Tried to repair it countless times I used this in rec consol bcdedit /export c:cd_backup ren c:ootcd.old bootrec /rebuildbcd I also tried it with D instead of C I see that there are 4 partitions to this drive system ?system reserved which is C OS which is D Data which is E The first time I tried it, it worked !Then on reboot - it went back to bsod getting fed up with it - am i doing something wrong, or is there another way
I have recently been getting the blue screen of death at random times, I think it might be coinciding with sometimes when I have my phone plugged in to charge. I believe it said page fault in non paged area once. It has done it more than once though.Here is what windows gave me after it booted back up from 2 different times: #1Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BlueScreen OS Version:6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID:4105Additional information about the problem: [URL]
I reinstalled my windows (7 SP1) five days ago and BSOD has happened many times since. This morning it happened 3 times in one hour when I was watching a film with Windows Media Player.
It has been a month or two that I bought a new Pc and now I suddenly get a blue screen (dump). I have also attached the .dmp file which I got in the minidump folder.
Yesterday, my comp was still run as normal. Once window update(IE9 update)done and I restarted my computer and played game(PES 2011), the graphic started being not clear and then blue screen occurred. Afterward, I cleaned up the dust in my CPU and also updated my NVIDIA driver to 270.61 version. However, blue screen still occurred repetitively until I was forced to start in safe mode. So, I hope to find out any problems before further action.Here is the error came out from the blue screen.
My laptop keeps going to a blue screen and then will go quickly to the black screen in which I can start windows in safe mode or start normally. It does this several times a day. Then when windows starts again it get a window stating that windows experienced a unexpected shutdown.
I've recently built my own computer, but I've come across a problem..Whenever i boot up my computer I get the blue screen and it would restart. At first it wouldn't really bother me since it would only happen once a day, but then i realized that after the blue screen only half of my overall RAM would be usable.
