BSOD

[carlos1001]

Hi
I'm getting a BSOD when ever I turn on the computer.
But the second time it reboots it loads fine.
What could be causing this?

Do you have any USB devices connected?
If a desktop, does it have a card reader?

[carlos1001]

Do you have any USB devices connected?

Yes I do. I have a netgear WNA 3100 Wireless Adapter and a wireless keyboard/mouse adapter and a seagate Replica 500 GB Hard Drive.

If a desktop, does it have a card reader?

Yes it has a built in card reader and it connects using a USB port on M Bord

[Computer_Commando]

One of those is causing the BSOD.  Unplug one at a time until you find out which one.

Thanks I'll try that. I'll report back if anything changes!

[carlos1001]

I tried unplugging all USB devices one by one and the problem isn't fixed.
Got another BSOD:

Go to Start/Run and type in sfc /scannow...
Have your Windows CD handy as it will ask for it...
When it finishes remove the CD and re-boot.

I don't have a Vista DVD just system recovery disks. Which don't work...
no recovery partition a tetchy took it off, I didn't think much about it Until now. And this comp isn't under wont now so I cant get tech support.

[patio]

The Vista Recovery Console is available as a Free DLoad and will let6 you run sfc...

See Here...

Follow the info for creating a bootable CD.

[carlos1001]

I didn't get prompted to put the DVD that I burned. I got:

Administrator: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6002]
Copyright (c) 2006 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow
Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.
Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

OK.
After a re-boot is everything back to normal ? ?
The next 2 suspects in line would be the RAM ...or a flakey PSU.

For the RAM DLoad and run MemTest...let it run at least 2 hours...any errors at all and you have a bad stik of RAM.

To test the PSU borrow a known good one and swap it in there overnite...make sure it is of the same or greater wattage...if the BSOD's go away you have found the culprit.

I'll try that. I don't no how long I may take because I'm at school right now.
I'll report if anything changes.

[patio]

Best of Luck...
Bring us good news.

[carlos1001]

Sorry for the really late reply.
I ran memtest,  and it turned out that the first stick of ram was bad.
So I swapped it, and everything seems to be fine now.
Thankyou,

Carlos

[patio]

Excellent...
