755878 2009-03-15 07:36:00 That's Avast back up and running.

Nothing has gone down, yet!! I am going to run something that will force my lowly 6600 (nothing as worthy as Blam's HD4870!!) so stand well back!!

755880 2009-03-15 07:37:00 Go back to event viewer (start/run type eventvwr).

Highlight each entry on the left / right mouse clear all events. Then reboot

What comes up under application and system now?? The same errors / entries you posted?

Thats a good sign. Umm See if it plays up in a few hours - lets see if its ok, after 30 mins (if youre still up and the PC is running).. Pass on my previous post for now.. That can wait till tomorrow

755883 2009-03-15 08:47:00 This may or may not work (support.microsoft.com)

For the 1st error. Method 2

Error 2. Is the sound working / the sound drivers installed?

Looks like files for Avast are still not loading. As well as FIPS

Click on the http links for error 2/3. See what links / sites they bring up

You may have no option but to reformat if it keeps doing it

755884 2009-03-15 11:42:00 Error 1 - Fixed, thanks.

Error 2 - Sound isn't working. I re-installed the driver and sound worked until system crash and sound was missing again.

Looking through Event Viewer I am now convinced that no evidence is logged for my video problems.

755885 2009-03-15 20:11:00 Hmm whats an A&R computer? From your first post?

Sounds like these crashes, may have been the cause of these errors (it may have corrupted a few files) ?

WHERE did you get the soundcard drivers from??

Umm, theres only one soundcard in the case right?? You using the onboard soundcard, or a separate soundcard?
