Re: Vista BlueScreen

When you look at Task Manager, ctrl+alt+del, look in under 'Performance' tab. Are any of the bars red or have a full green bar saying 100% ?

Re: Vista BlueScreen

hello mate dont know if your still having the problems but if you are a looks like a hardware fault or failure. This could be because of one of two things, either the device is dying (broken) or the correct drivers arent installed.

You need to ensure that you install your maufactures drivers not microsoft one even if the microsoft ones are newver. When Microsoft write drviers they write them in a generic format so they will work with the most devices where as the manufacture writes it specifically for your device.

However if your comp is only a few weeks old then send it back and get them to fix it.

See Attachment:
It goes up to 32% when I'm not doing anything but usually when it crashes I'm browsing or downloading stuff.

Could the blue screen be caused by an out of date graphics card driver? My current driver version is 162 and nVidia says that there is a version 169 out.

Re: Vista BlueScreen

could be update it its not going to hurt is it. Out of date drivers can cause systems to become unstable aswell as many other things but it will help eliminate it from the list!

Re: Vista BlueScreen

Yeah update every driver that you possibly can! Also when it shows the 32% have a look what is eating your CPU and type the process name into this site:
http://www.processlibrary.com/
It will tell you what it is and whether it needs to be running, it will also tell you if it is a virus/harmful program. If it does say that it is a harmful program then update your Anti-virus & Anti-Spyware programs and run a scan. Might be worth running a Hijack This log as well and posting the results.

I mostly get the blue screen of death either when I'm browsing multiple web pages on IE7 or when I'm downloading something on Limewire.

Re: Vista BlueScreen

hi simpson it all looks clear apart from
O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [Launcher] %WINDIR%\SMINST\launcher.exe

this could be spyware and you should invistage further have a look on google etc.

Re: Vista BlueScreen

If it turns out to be spyware as chris has suggested above, i would run the instant scan found here: http://www.liutilities.com/products/campaigns/plib/se/
This will then scan your system for spyware that you can then get rid of.

edit: You can also try Spybot's Search and Destroy programme found here:
http://www.no-spyware.eu/antispyware...15download.php
Download it, install it and run the scan, takes about 20~30 minutes depending on the amount of hard drive used up.
