BSOD soon after Windows 7 loads up
Hi. This is my first post and I'm a bit of a PC novice...
My PC, an HP DM4 64bit purchased directly from HP, approx 6 months old, has just started giving me problems
When I power up, Windows starts to load, I get to the Windows password screen, enter my password, and Windows continues (very slowly) until my desktop appears.
But after just a couple of seconds the PC crashes, with a BSOD appearing very briefly.
If I boot up in safe mode I don't have any crashes
I've tried system restore, but it just hangs for hours.
Windows was pre-installed on the PC, so I don't have the CDs. There is an HP Recovery partition though
I tried to run perfmon /report, but got the error message:
Error:
An error occured while attempting to generate the report
The system cannot find the path specified
Any help please?
Thanks
