Win7 crashes unexpectedly-no BSOD
Previously, I was running a dual boot system with XP and Ubuntu in a 64 bit system. Had no problems whatsoever.
Recently installed Win7 in same dual boot system and Windows now crashes frequently. No BSOD- just shuts down quietly to a black screen. At first I suspected a heating problem but the system reboots immediately so overheating does not seem to be an issue.
Ubuntu has never crashed so I assume it is a Windows software problem.
I have not been able to identify an event which might cause this problem. I have run scans for malware and viruses using Spybox Search and Destroy as well as other similar programs. No joy.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
