Again blue screen!!!

[alintatoc]

After couple of weeks of silence, now I got the blue screen again. Yesterday one, today one...
How can the computer run normal for 3 weeks and now start again?

I want to remind you that I haven't changed anything in the last 3 weeks so that's why I am puzzled why I have the blue screen again...

Both errors are indicative (but not definitively, so I can't say for absolutely certain) of a faulty memory stick. I would certainly bet that's what it is. This would also explain the intermittent nature of the failures. Sometimes it works, sometimes it burps.

If you have more than one memory stick, try pulling one out and rebooting. If you get BSOD, replace it and pull out another memory stick. It's a slow, laborious process, but it can help you isolate the culprit.

Ok, but 3 weeks ago I had different memory sticks and I still had problems with blue screen. Somehow I can't believe that I am that lucky and this new memory are bad...
Could it be from something else?

Have you changed or upgraded any system software? Did you upgrade Flash?

Could possibly be video driver related. Also overheating of the system can create a blue screen.

I had Blue Screens for months - almost every day. I changed everything - RAM, video card, etc. Finally I reinstalled XP from scratch and haven't had a blue screen in 6 months (I did upgrade to a beta version of Flash, which immediately caused blue screens, downgrading fixed it).

What exactly were you doing when you received this blue screen?

No, I haven't changed the system software, still running with Windows 7, 32bit version. I didn't upgrade flash either.

Overheating, don't know what to say about that because my case is new and has good ventilation inside, and I don't even play games on my pc.

Motherboard and videocard are new, 1.5 months, RAM is new, 1 month so I don't know why I continue to have this issues.

What exactly were you doing when you received this blue screen?

Actually nothing special, surfing on the internet

I was actually wondering, could it be from my external hard drive? Probably not, but just wanted to ask...

Random shut downs sounds like either faulty RAM, or CPU over heating issued. Have you run memtest to check your RAM?

No, not yet, but I will run the test to see if I get any errors.

one suggestion, remove the motherboard battery, looks like alarge watch battery, for , say, 2 hours, then re insert and re start. it resets the bios etc, cannot do any harm (he said famously)

For that long time, 2 hours?

[victoriabears]

yes it seems to need a period of time to clear the cmos, also if you can, just ensure everything is fitted well inside the case, remove the power from the outlet, earth yourself, just ensure evrything is seated properly.
