Hey guys, I have a question. I built my machine about a month or two ago, and this is what I bought:
ASUS A8N-SLI-Prmeium
PQI 1g (2.5-3-3-5) (soon to be 2)
160g WD hdd
AMD 4600+ proc
XFX 7600GT pci-e (soon two be 2)
Rosewill 550w
peripherals etc..
The first windows install I performed was fine for about 3 hours, when my computer refused to load anything... I mean it shut down and stopped loading windows. I resolved that by reinstalling windows. Everything was fine for a while, and still is, minus a few things that are happening.
Recently, or rather, since I built the computer, the infamous blue screen pops up, and my compy restarts. Sometimes it restarts without the blue screen of death, too. Now the problem I have with that mainly is, if there is a problem with my configuration, or drivers, wouldn't I know it? As in, wouldn't it find corrupted files, etc? Speaking of corrupted files, I ran a checkdisk, and it found quite a few errors. It resolved everyone of them with no errors (thank god).
My computer runs perfectly well, everything is fine, proc running 31c ATM and 40ish under heavy load. So if everything runs fine, why is my computer rebooting and giving blue screens? I have run virus scans and spyware sweeps etc. to no avail. Heres a stumper, when the computer reboots and DOESN'T get a blue screen (randomly turns off and on) windows loads like nothing happened. On the other hand, when the computer reboots and DOES get a blue screen, when I log in, I get the message "Windows has recovered from a serious error" thing. I send MS the report, and check it out myself. Every piece of info about what the problem may be says unknown or something of the sort. MS knows nothing of the problem...
The computer runs perfectly fine, but I really want to know how to stop this from continuing to happen. At the moment, it doesn't seem to be hurting the computer, considering it still runs fine and lightning fast. But what if it starts to hurt the computer? Would it? Could it?
My questions are 1) How do I stop this form happening? 2) What type of problem do you think it is/why is it happening? and 3) Could it be a registry problem, as I haven't checked there yet.
Thanks in advance
EDIT
I just downloaded Registry Mechanic really quickly and ran a check. It found like 116 errors and 91 are restricted because I'm not gonna buy it.. lol Anyhow, it found an error with AMDCPU.exe and a few other CPU related things, that may be the problem, but I'll find out
