    Win7 Prem 64 bit crashing


    I've done the crash logging and perf mon.

    Was hoping anybody had some insight.

    This has been going on my for months. I'd pull out the RAM, spray with air to get rid of the dust, etc., replace and things would be good for a while, and then it'd show up again.

    Just found this forum and figured I'd post.

    I'm suspicious of my power supply now....

    Thanks.

    No DMP's included in uploaded try this method.

    If you wish to have others assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder. The procedure:

    * Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.
    * Zip up the copy.
    * Start your own thread in the appropriate section of the forum and attach the ZIP archive to your post using the "paperclip" (file attachments) button.
    * Briefly describe the problem history and circumstances in the same post. Somebody will attend to your query as soon as possible.

    Hmm... I don't have a \windows\minidump folder...

    So I guess that technically means this isn't a BSOD. Hmm... ok... so how the heck can I piece together what is causing this?

    Event Viewer is showing this:

    The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

    Event ID 41

    Did you get a blue screen with numbers and a "STOP" on it?

    If so thats it. It may not be creating the file, or it may store it in a different place. (search for *.dmp)
