    =the problem=
    Last night I put it into sleep and today it just gets locked up! I put in my password and it loads into my desktop and then it seems to be working like normal, like I can right click stuff on my task bar and like close things from there. But then like if I try and do anything it just freezes up and the screen goes white and then it shows the little mouse wheel waiting animation. Like I tried turning on firefox and it froze then I reset it and then I tried to move videos from my desktop to a folder it freezes, I tried loading msn it freezes. Ugg! this computer is like a month old! I am currently running it in safe mode right now :/ please help?

    That would help greatly.

    Even though this isn't a bsod per say a system log would help a lot more than your description.

    To me that points to a core file issue.

    boot safemode (hopefully that's more stable) and use the cmd window to run SFC /scannow

    Attached the zip file at the first post. And yea safe mode is awesome its the whole reason I am able to get some tech support, it seems to be doing everything that it couldn't do before. But its well safe mode ><

    =results from SFC /scannow=
    well the scan ended and it closed and I don't think anything came up o0 I'm not sure if it is good or bad. Should I run it again? or would have something come up if there was a problem?

    I have to ask if you've changed anything in the last 24 hours. Your system event log started logging faults like crazy at exactly 9:50 this morning. There are no dumpfiles located in your zip so this is more than likely a software fault.

    I also notice you have a isatap adapter driver issue. This could be causing problems for your wireless card. I honestly am hoping one of the more experienced debuggers happen by this thread. I personally am more accustomed to actually having my hands on a machine, some of these guys are pro's at solving problems online.

    Ah no @.@ I don't even go online in the mornings! I don't do anything with my computer till after 12pm-1pm. That is really strange does it look like tampering? or a virus?

    There were no .dmp files in the jcgriff folder,
    If you wish others to assist with your Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) problem – please follow these steps...
    - Navigate to C:\Windows\Minidump (C:\ indicates where Windows is installed)
    - Copy all of the mini dump files to a temporary location (Desktop or an empty folder is recommended)
    - Zip up the dumps into a .rar or .zip format
    - Upload using the uploading (paper clip) attachment.
    - Briefly describe your problem, your system specs, age of OS and scomputer; someone will analyze your dumps as soon as possible.
