Mooney Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 My new computer is great, and works amazingly as well, but there is one problem. Sometimes, while I'm using it, it will just randomly shut down or restart itself. When it gets back on, I am presented with this web page:http://oca.microsoft.com/en/response.aspx?...790d&SID=10Does anyone know how I can fix this?
iq_132 Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 One of the device drivers on your pc is screwed up. I'd suggest uninstalling any devices you don't need atm and figure out which is the problem.
ken_cinder Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 I'd put my money on one of these things.... A: Update your graphics card driver. This is a huge contributor to BSODs when there are driver conflicts. B: Disable auto restart when the system detects a problem. If theres a real problem, you'll know it. Often Windows will restart itself when there is no real problem. Right click on My Computer, go to the Advanced tab and click on Settings under Startup and Recovery and uncheck the Automatically Restart box. C: Running a motherboard with a VIA chipset? VIA sucks, PERIOD. Make sure you have the latest chipset drivers.
Mooney Posted November 18, 2006 Author Posted November 18, 2006 A: Did that before this started happening. B: Did that now, mebbe it will help? C: My motherboard is an Elitegroup KA3 MVP which is based on the ATI RD580 Northbridge and SB600 Southbridge chipsets. Updating all my drivers for that now.
Mooney Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 Ok, I did all of the things everyone suggested, but it is still happening. This time, I tok a pic of what it shows me every time it happens:
Weirdy Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 I did a google search and it's possible that there is bad ram. Source.

GodPigeon Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Today i got the same screen but that was after i plugged in my memory stick. Maybe you have some stuff plugged into your USB ports you should disconnect. Just a thought before u go and buy ur RAM
joeunity311 Posted December 9, 2006 Posted December 9, 2006 dam i used to have that same problem but it didnt send me to a web page
Shibathedog Posted December 9, 2006 Posted December 9, 2006 i dont think VIA chipsets suck :/ i mean some of them do, but some of them are awesome, its not really fair to bash them all
