Well, My computer has been acting up recently and I can't quite say that i am sure why. Every now and then, like, about once a day, my computer either BSOD's or locks up. The lock up is more common. I cannot find any single scenario that causes it, but it will freeze and static-like sounds come from the speakers. I haven't been able to pull the BSOD code either, because it restarts immediately after doing it. I think running FAH at 95% 24/7 may have someting to do with it. My thoughts are power supply, but I have an Antec NeoPower 480, which should be sufficient for my rig. Would it be the constant full load? I have quit running FAH and I will see how it goes. I am also running a virus scan to see if it finds anything. You can look in My Computer for my specs. I also know temperature is not an issue, as I run 34 idle and 41-42 load. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
To stop the computer rebooting so you can read what it says on the screen hold down the windows key and press pause break. It should bring up the System properties. Click the advanced tab and press Settings (under startup and recovery). Then uncheck Automatically restart under System Failure. I think this should stop it rebooting next time it BSODs.
Well, knowing what the BSOD says is going to help to track down the problem. Also, keep an eye on your temps, run Memtest on your RAM for a few hours and test your power supplies voltages with a multimeter.
have you tried writing a .ISO image to CD and booting from that CD, here´s the CD image for win bootable CD don´t need installing to run
