1280514 2012-06-08 02:37:00 My computer is running XP sp3 and has started crashing several times a day. I get a black screen and then an immediate reboot. Temperature seems ok, and I have cleaned all fans and checked that they are operating. I have also reinstalled the Nvidia display driver as I suspected this may have been the cause. I get no error messages.

Is there anywhere I should look to find some indication of what may be the cause of these crashes and reboots, or does anybody have some suggestions?

1280515 2012-06-08 02:42:00 Disable auto restart. So you can see what the stop error is / says. Or get bluescreenvioew run it. See what that says. Is it an AMD (and whats the brand)? or Intel system. SP3 wasn't installed recently was it? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1280516 2012-06-08 03:17:00 I would start with memtest86+ and check the RAM. CYaBro (73)
1280517 2012-06-08 04:23:00 System is Intel P4 3.2MHz. SP 3 installed when originally released. I will try Bluescreenview and Memtest and see what I get. Richard (739)
1280518 2012-06-08 04:31:00 From Bluescreenview it seems that all my problems are coming from nv_4 disp.dll which I guess is part of the Nvidia driver. Even though I have downloaded the latest driver from the Nvidia site, the error is still occurring. What next? Richard (739)
1280519 2012-06-08 04:34:00 System is Intel P4 3.2MHz. SP 3 installed when originally released. I will try Bluescreenview and Memtest and see what I get.

MHz?

1280520 2012-06-08 04:34:00 Could be a faulty graphics card then.
Is it onboard or a seperate card?
If it's a seperate card does the PC have onboard as well that you could test by removing the seperate card?

1280522 2012-06-08 04:36:00 Yup the Nvidia drivers are crashing it. You may have to try an earlier version of the drivers. If those are the latest drivers Speedy Gonzales (78)
1280523 2012-06-08 04:45:00 MHz?

Sorry GHz.
