I have a this compaq laptop presario 2570us. I run a fresh install of windows xp pro sp 3 etc.
after it sits turned off for several hours, when I start it back up windows crashes 2 times every time.
it restarts itself etc. and is normal acting after. never crashes during use.
I can't make heads or tails out of the info on the blue screen. later today I'll try snaping a picture of it and post it so everyone can look. and maybe give me some ideas.
so far I've tried all the bios updates. I have all the updates from Microsoft. which by the way is when I started noticing the crashes.
I'm going to try a boot loader program and install xp several times and test each one of them with different service packs. and see which one might be crashing it.
I don't think it's a hardware issue because ubuntu doesn't have the crashing problem and functions normally.
