1121762 2010-07-28 01:41:00 If it can boot into safe mode / networking, get teamviewer. Install then run it. Send the ID and password to me in a PM. I'll see what this program says Speedy Gonzales (78)

1121765 2010-07-28 02:56:00 Cool OK. Lets see what happens tomorrow then when you turn it on. If it crashes it may bring up the same stop error. See if it says the name of a file / driver Speedy Gonzales (78)
1121766 2010-07-28 03:38:00 i cant think of what i done recently to cause this....the only thing i can think of is that i added 2 512mb ram sticks could this be the problem?

Goodiesguy and PCTek both suggested testing the RAM but nothing seems to have been done about that.

So I say:

Did you get the crashing before you added the new RAM?
Does it stop crashing if you take the new RAM out?

If you run Memtest86+ with the new RAM in, do you get errors?

Because if the problems only started happening after the new RAM was added, it's most likely that the new RAM is the problem.

thing is i added the ram weeks ago and had no trouble until recently...altough i will test the ram just to be certain...sorry to sound stupid but how do i use that memtest86+ it seems pretty complicated...

A memory problem may not appear straight away.

Running Memtest86+ is easy. Go to the website memtest.org
and download whichever one suits you.

The USB autoinstaller is probably the easiest but if you dont have a USB drive then burning an ISO to CD or the floppy image is an option too.

Once you have done that, boot your computer from the USB, CD or floppy and let the test run. If there are any errors you will notice them quickly as they show up in red on the screen.
