I'm looking for some guidance on an issue with my Windows 7 box. My system is crashing once a week or a few times a month. I can't exactly pinpoint why, as the logs only show the crash after. Logs indicate the following...

Link RemovedA recent report in the New York Times details a myriad issues that led up to the eventual explosion that started the mess known as the "BP oil spill," but aside from obvious mishandling of warnings and red flags, one particular issue was troubling those working on the Deepwater...

I'm not sure where the fault lies with this, for it could be either a driver or heat issue, or maybe something else. My video card is over a year old now, a Radeon HD4870, and has never given me trouble before. What's happening is that I'll come out of a YouTube video - say, exit full screen and...

Ok, so my computer has recently been locking up upon start-up, when the windows logo is flashing it will just freeze and require restart. The only way I've been able to remedy this is by doing a system repair or restore. Before I can get to these I must turn off my computer and unplug it for 15...

So last night I couldn't sleep and decided to log back onto my Acer to surf the web when I found 32-bit IE didn't work. It locks up instantly and can only be closed by ending the process from the process list in the task manager. 64-bit IE still works. Firefox and Opera both don't work. I'd be...

My sister's laptop has been having some serious problems. After about only 2 minutes of running, the system gradually locks up one program at a time until the only things that respond/change are the mouse and the desktop gadgets. The only way to avoid locking up is to boot into Safe Mode...

I upgraded from Vista to windows 7 and all was fine. Two days ago, the pc stated to freeze on the page where you type in your password. Access to windows can still be achieved in safe mode although not in safe mode with network. I have tried system restore etc to no avail. My anti-virus will not...

I've got a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit system (6.1.7600.16385) with a bit of an issue. It's a high end, RAID 1 (hardware configured) system. Quad core Xeon and 8GB ram... I need this system to stay running until I tell it otherwise..... but it's not. I always disable Windows updates, just for this...

Basically, this issue seems to pop up at any time, with no warning, the only common thread being that some sort of audio is on. Sometimes it goes for hours without it, even a day, other times it crashes with barely five minutes' break between crashes. If the audio distort is in a program, for...

I have a new dell studio running windows 7 and for some reason almost all of my programs, when I try to open them say "not responding". This also includes the games that came with windows such as minesweeper and solitare, etc. I can still use internet explorer but it also says not responding and...

Okay, I know there's already a forum for this, but I need to know what needs to be done with my computer alone to better understand how to fix this problem. I just upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit from Windows Vista 64 bit. Ever since I upgraded, my computer will randomly lock up. It...

I have an Extensa 4420 with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. Every time it resumes from hibernate, it locks up after about 1 minute. I've tried installing different versions of the video driver, touchpad driver, and wireless card, but none of those have fixed it. How do I troubleshoot this?
