    System File Checker


    Have you tried running sfc?

    Open the Command Prompt (use the "Run as administrator" option in the context menu).
    Type:
    sfc /scannow

    Just a thought.
    What do you mean by crash?

    Windows 7 64 bit installed on a computer with only 2 gigs of ram will be hard pressed to do much of anything.

    My system with just my security programs and this forum is using 1.7 gig of ram.

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    Use Clean boot,
    https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/179159-troubleshoot-application-conflicts-performing-clean-startup.html
    Click Start and type in the search box,
    msconfig
    Click on the suggestion on top or hit the Enter key,
    Go to the Startup section and take some screen shots for a complete list,
    Go to the Services section and on the bottom left Check the box to Hide All Microsoft services,
    Repeat the screen shots,
    See the links above my signature on how to take and upload screen shots here,
    Cheers.

    I tried the sfc and it said there were no integrity violations. But browsers still crash.

    Do the browsers:

    • Display any messages?
    • Just lock up?
    • Start and then vanish?

    On google chrome, it will freeze up and stay that way or it will say shockwave plugin has stopped working. Internet explorer does the same thing but just says such and such web page has stopped working then it will ask if I want to recover the page. When I reload the page on any browser they usually start cutting out again in the first few minutes. Sometimes I will even see my internet signal disconnect and reconnect when the web pages freeze or crash as well. For example: If you click a button on a page you're on, the button you click will take you to whatever its supposed to take you to. But, when I do the same thing, the page just keeps loading and loading forever or says shockwave stopped working, or page stopped working or responding.
