Big Time Error. Need some help here please!
Hi there,
I have been getting random crashes every so often ever since i have installed windows 7. Turns out i can't figure it out so i figure i'd ask some experts on the matter here
Anyways, what happens is my screen completely freezes, and whatever sound was last played keeps looping. Now this is random as random gets. Sometimes it happens when i'm browsing the internet, gaming, installing things, whenever. Sometimes it will occur 2 or 3 times in an hour, other times once every 2 or 3 hours.
I went into my even viewer and pulled this out at the exact moment of my previous crash:
Critical Kernel-Power Event ID:41 Task Category (63)
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

Now forgive me, i don't know what any of this crap means, so i don't even know if it's relevant. But if anyone has a similar problem and has solved it or if anyone has any helpful suggestions please do not hesitate. Thank you kindly.
