I've seen a few threads about this but they're all kind of different or whatnot. My computer (three times tonight alone!) has just randomly re-started while I'm in the middle of work. When it comes back, it tells me that the system just recovered from a series error. When I report it, I'm taken to a Microsoft page about Windows Service Pack 2 and updating my driver. I've checked and I have SP2 and when I try to update the driver it tells me they couldn't find a better match than what I'm already using.
I've checked System Information and automatic restart isn't even checked yet this has happened a lot. Like I said, three times tonight it's happened. I've run my virus scanner, I've run Ad-aware SE Personal, SpySweeper, and Spybot and anything that comes back and is quarantined or deleted hasn't fixed the problem.
My computer restarts at random times: Sometimes when I'm playing a game, sometimes when I'm surfing the web, and sometimes right when it has been previously restarted. I haven't a clue what the problem could be.
I've a problem with my laptop - i have an internet connection configured on it, it operates on Windows 2000 Pro, and the computer randomly restarts a few minutes after i am connected to the internet. Its a DSL connection and the modem is configured and all, but every time, several minutes after i am connected, the laptop just restarts. No blue screen, no nothin', just restarts.Any friendly advice? Obviously would be very appreciated - i cant fix this problem myself for over a month now.
I hope someone can help me. I have a computer (compaq presario 5300 US) with 512 mem and 1.1 ghz proc. The machine runs fine and will run for days unless I go to the internet with any web browser, IE 6-8beta, Opera, Firefox etc. Generally it will access the net ok, but when it encounters a page running any Java, it seems to accumulate errors then just goes black and restarts.No blue screen, no dumps, just black and a full restart. Sometimes it takes several minutes of running the program, such as a game called Brick Blaster found on the Zoomtown site. I have played this game for 5 minutes before the restart, or it can restart after the game first starts to load. I have found some Java errors using the OPera debug reporter but cannot make any sense out of them.I have installed a new Power Supply, changed out my ram strips, done a ram test, done a cpu stress test, scanned for viruses. Nothing found in any case. I am about to toss the machine in the trash, except it belongs to one of my best friends and for him, money is very tight.
I'm using a friends laptop, and I was looking at a friends photos on myspace when randomly i got a blue screen from windows. It restarted the computer pretty quickly and i had very little time to read it. I think i saw error with file and dumping physical memory.It restarted fine, but I got this screen before with a computer that I had never used and it ended with the computer restarting and getting disk read error and not working at all, so Im very worried.All I have for info is the error report which I've attached an image of.
So I got my computer back from the repair shop. I was under warranty, so I figured I'd let them do the work than pull my own hair out. However, this time, I feel as though I need to deal with my problem.So everything boots fine; the welcome screen for XP shows up and suddenly the computer will flash to a blue screen and reboot. Restarts, loads into windows; so I disable the automatic restart option.These restarts happen randomly; either right as I load into Windows, or as I am loading the system up. Usually, when Windows loads up fully it rarely, but still, reboots. The first message I got was a problem with savrt.sys... a Norton Anti-Virus file. So I uninstalled Norton, and installed AVG instead. Rebooted 3 times, no problems...thought everything was fixed.
it usually happens when im like working on it for about 2hrs or something. the pc would go dead, and reboot. or windows would hang, and from the hard disk led, i can see that it is all busy and unavailable. ta ta. its getting on my nerves. i just recovered my system from new.net, and now i have slower internet connection. no nothing wrong with the isp. i suspect there maybe reminents of the old virus still holding back windows. could my fears turn out to be true? i have had the liberty of posting my HJT log here, so do point out anything suspicious and also anything that could slow down the system..
Initially, it just seemed like totally random and spontaneous reboots. But after I reconfigured XP to not autorestart on crashes, now I'm getting BSODs. IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL *** STOP: 0x0000000A (0x00000188, 0x000000FF, 0x00000000, 0x804E35E9)Beginning dump of physical memory Physical memory dump complete. This seems to happen at 2 times. 1) Completely random, with no obvious ties to any activity. 2) When a USB device is disconnected. Windows acknowledges the removal with a bong, but then BSOD crashes seconds later.
Both are extremely intermittent and it may be a week or more in between crashes. I can sit there and insert and remove USB devices (a Creative USB MP3 Player) until I'm blue in the face and never see a crash. This is a home built PC with an ASUS motherboard running XP Home. The system has been reliable for many years but just started this in the last several months. I'm current on all service packs, updates, and whatever else I've been able to find.
window loads, sits, finally other half will load, mouse just doesn't seem to do anything so you click again and 3 minutes later 2 of whatever will finally open... just annoying crap really A few days ago comcast went off and I had to unplug modem, wait, then plug back up and restart system. I got a "Disk read error press control, alt, delete, to restart" error, tried that same thing so I shut down and when I turned back on it booted fine. I have since moved... just set up the system and am getting the same error except this time shutdown/restart isn't working ( The OTHER problem I realize is this... this is a tempory move! Most everything I own is in a storage unit, boxes to the back, furniture to the front and guess where my disks are? Right! I put printer, shredder, disks, everything I didn't just HAVE to have in the storage unit.
as i run internet explorer there are times where some websites may not respond, and after i close the window i occasionally i recieve error reports. i have windows XP and i have run ad-aware and spybot search and destroy.
Every time I start my pc or during day I get this error message.It usually stacks like that because my pc was left on overnight, so it happens every 2 hours or so. I have no idea what this links to but it just started happening after I formated my pc, although I dont know why this started coming after many formats.
"The system DLLuser32.dll was relocated in memory. The application will not run properly. The relocation occured because the DLL C:Windowssystem32HHCTRL.OCX occupied an address range reserved for windows system DLLs. The vendor supplying th DLL should be contacted for a new DLL".Can someone please explain to me what this means and how to get rid of it. I am a windows XP user. nothing seems to have changed in the way my cpu works but this error message concerns me and is going to get annoying. as soon as i click ok it goes away and doesn't come back again. i turned off my cpu and turned it on again but it happened again.
I have a HP 705w with 1024 ram ,mx400 nvidia vid card,realtec sound and fast Ethernet.At any given time my cpu restarts.It has done this while on and off line and msg in event log is ID 6009 widows universal processer free -when i look error up it says user has hit ctrl ,alt+delete or went to shut down to restart computer but I have not.I have ran Norton AV+MCafee AV(Unistalled ea before running the other).I have ran Superantispyware and Adaware but nothing has been found.I have checked and updated all drivers + Bios.I have ran a Ram tester-checks out fine.I have ran scandisk-again no issues.I have went to recovery options and unchecked autorestart.My PC is on a home network with 2 other cpus and have found no strange incoming or outgoing in my router logs.I have spent hours researching this and consulted 2 of my friends which are IT pros and we are all clueless.
Trying to help my daughter with her computer. Every once in a while (sometime twice in a day, sometime not for several days in a row) she hears her computer rebooting. Even when she has nothing open and not even using it - just a desktop open. Created a system restore point before started all this. The computer reboots and gives the following error message: "The System has recovered from a serious error", then she can click Send to Microsoft, or don't send. She clicks don't send and everything words just fine, her applications run fine, email and Internet work fine. This doesn't happen very often, but something is not right. Not much to gone on but that's all that happens.The computer is nice and fast, boots up fast, everything runs nice and fast. Internet and email work fine.This started a few months ago and she can't remember doing anything that would cause it to start. She has not installed any software or hardware in over a year or so. I did a complete backup right away so her files are backed up and safe.
Thought it sounded like a heat issue so I opened the case and she had it very, very clean. Fan and heatsink very clean and fan working fine as well as the other fan in the case. I checked the hard drive cables (SATA 250 gig HD) and they were nice and tight. Reseated the memory modules just in case one crept lose. check CD/DVD drive cable and it was tight. Cleaned out her temporary Internet (cache) files.Next, I clicked on My Computer then highlighted the C: drive and right clicked the C: drive and selected Properties. Then selected Tools and was going to select Defrag button but it was greyed out and said "No defragment tool is installed. I then opened the Control Panel and click the Add/Remove programs icon and once that opened I selected the Open Windows Components and it opened fine, but I couldn't find anywhere in there to install the Windows Defragment program. Am I looking in the right place for this?
When the PC restarts it generates and sends an error report, which indicates a Graphics Device driver is the problem.My PC behaved ok until about a month ago, when it started crashing, in general with an error report saying 'Error caused by Graphics driver'.The system gradualy got more unstable until it would not boot properly at all.I have recently re-installed windows and upgraded to SP2.After this re-installation, the problem started again.
I'm attempting to help a friend who is not very computer capable.She has Win XP Pro, SP 2, and I believe IE 6. She has been getting a bunch of error messages (IE has encountered a problem and must close). I don't have access to her comp, but wondered if anyone knew of a possible reason. I suggested that she d/l IE 7, however, everytime she tried, she got the same message and was kicked to the "send/don't send" box for the Microsoft "problem" reporting and then to desktop.
i'm new to these forums. For the last week, i've been using an older HP Pavilon system, 933mhz with 512mb ram. My issue is this, Occasionally, when I turn on the machine, I can left click the background no problem, but if I try to click on the start menu, it's as if the left-click on my mouse doesn't work. I've found a remedy to this problem to be to alt-tab, even if no other programs are open at the time. If I alt-tab, i'm 99.9% of the time able to left click the menu bar. Now, this wouldn't be a major problem, however I have the same issue when I alt-tab through webpages, or if I alt-tab out of a computer game. Also, I play World of Warcraft, and every so often the same thing happens, however to anyone who may play the game- I am able to use the leftclick on the mainscreen, as in, to pan around my character, but if I attempt to open my bag slots, click on a monster or any of my skills, nothing happens. I've tried replacing my mouse, no good. I've tried differnt ram, same problem. I've tried a new hard drive, no good. I've FFR'd both hard drives, reinstalled windows from scratch, and STILL the problem is there. Does anyone have the slightest idea of what could be causing this?
I'm getting random blue screen crashes, sometimes my system runs for hours, other times it crashes repeatedly and takes multiple attempts to boot. (Sometimes after crash won't boot or load windows and there is a black screen and I have to turn the power on/off a couple times and it will boot after a few tries.) Also tried updating bios but can't figure out how since I don't have a floppy anymore. I've read that this could be memory/hardware or driver issue, but can't figure out how to get to the root of the problem or fix anything. I'd like to be able to fix this without reformatting my main drive.
I did a google and yahoo search for the error, but it only came up with one result (and it was in spanish). I think it has something to do with my registry, can anyone shed some light on the error?
Built my computer about 1 1/2 months ago, have been having various random reboots at times when I seem to be running a lot of stuff. Most notably crashes during memory intensive games. I sent for replacement ram, even though memtest gave me no errors after 7 passes. I had an Audigy 2 that was in one of the PCI slots, but I removed it and uninstalled all the drivers and apps. I also uninstalled my video drivers, deleted, and reinstalled to updated drivers. Some Errors picked from Event Viewer: (occured last night while playing World of Warcraft)
Error code 10000050, parameter1 e77b8000, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 bf9d59b4, parameter4 00000001. --------------------------------------------- *Error code 10000050, parameter1 991b272e, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 80529a84, parameter4 00000000. ---------------------------------------------- *An error was detected on device DeviceHarddisk0D during a paging operation.

The pc normally runs when i open for the first time and when i restart it shows "a disk read error press ctrl + alt +del to restart " at booting and when i do the same it shows me the same error again... i have to power off whole my system and then have to on it again... cannot restart.. please help ... and also i am not getting the dvd drive option shown at the selection of boot, means at 'to boot from where' ... instead it shows the cd drive which is not connected.
Getting an error message that goes STOP: 0x0000008E. Everytime i try to shut down or restart. I was also getting alot of Buffer Overflow Blocked warnings from mcafee before i uninstalled and used SpyBot Search And Destroy which has cleaned a couple trojans off of my comp that mcafee did not find.? Also everytime i open a program or even I.E. A seperate window opens up thats all text, And if i close that window the whole program closes.
I notice i have had this problem for the past 2 weeks and today by pc restarted itself out of no where.Can anyone explain why cause i ran virus scans and i'm pretty sure i'm clean.
I keep getting random crashes and I don't know how to go about diagnosing the problem. Every so often I get random STOP error messages, and from the articles on the Microsoft Support site it appears to be a driver problem, but I don't know which driver. These are the errors I got recently (in order)
My computer has recently started giving me an error message that says "A disk read error occurred. Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart." during startup. The first time this came up I took it into the repair shop the morning after. They turned the computer on, it started normally, and after keeping it overnight they returned it to me saying that they could find nothing wrong with it.It worked normally for about 2 days after that and then when I was using it the system suddenly became unresponsive. I was forced to turn it off via the button on the front of my tower, and when I turned it back on the disk read error message came back up. The next morning when I turned it on it was fine.
So i'm getting this error msg when I boot up Windows XP.Disc Read Error Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart. I do it but then it just comes up with that screen again.I have tried countless of times but it doesn't want to seem to work.This started happening after a game crash. Of artifacting and overheating and all that. So right now i'm using Ubuntu but it sucks. I hate it. I'm getting artifacts all over the screen. It's driving me insane. I can't seem to go into Windows Safe Mode either like trying to press F8 and all that. Otherwise, I would have tried to do a System Restore.
I have recently built a gigabyte 770 modo with SATA harddrive. When I try to reboot with the XP cd to intall, everything went fine but when the system restart in harddrive, it is giving me disc error.
