Ok so it looks like it might be a system driver.

It may be the video card causing it. Or a bad sector on the hard drive.

The next step would be to first test the drive for any bad sectors. Open a cmd window and do chkdsk /f /r

It should say that it cant because the drive is in use would you like to do it at next boot, say yes and then reboot. Before Windows logs in you should see it check, it will take a little while. Once done let me know :wink:

Shane

Gamezertruth:
done

Shane:
OK, in the event viewer you should see an entry for winlogon I think, and there you will have the details of what it found on the chkdsk.

Shane

Gamezertruth:
here you go.

No bad sectors :-)

So that means both your drive and memory are good. So it might be either the video card drivers or the video card itself (If it is part of the motherboard then it is the board)

What version drivers do you have installed? And when you check what is the date of the drivers?

Open the device manager and open the video card. Ont he drivers tab it will have that information :wink:
