PC Boot up
« on: January 27, 2007, 08:53:07 AM »
My PC has been giving problems for a while now. It can boot up fine but after a few minutes will suddenly shut off. sometimes it will auto reboot others it is dead! following this it will occasionally fail to open windows and need resetting a few times?  :-[ any ideas?

Heat bad Ram and or power problems are the 3 likliest culprits....but first travel to Control Panel / System / Hardware / Advanced and uncheck "automatically restart on errors"...

This will now produce BSOD's which will help diagnose the problem further.

clean first the copper of your memory stick using an eraser and brush the memory slot then put again the ram then boot if it still doesnt work try to change your ram with another spare
