d3 restarting computer at login

Not familiar with that error. I am only familiar with the Video driver stopped responding and has restarted message.

Let us know how things go with the new card.

Also, if you want to us to track down that error/warning, let us know and follow the https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...tructions.html to give us the error event viewer logs. :)

Ok. does my first post work? and how would i give you the error event viewer logs? i know how to open event viewer though, mostly just the typical 41 kernel power though..

The Event Viewer logs may have information on the warning, as well. Were you getting the v5.5 warning prior to the first post? If not, then no, the first post will not help. We need the latest information to try to track that down.

oh i see... ok. so here's the reports, but how do i give you my event viewer logs?

specs now:
win7 x64
full retail
all new except for the radeon hd 5570 and enermax liberty 400w

thanks

edit: forgot to mention i was looking in my c:windows for a memdump after i got a black screen but couldn't find one. this one is after i got a striped screen.

Your Windows registry is corrupted/damaged. I highly suggest a repair install.

• You will need to Repair Install Windows 7.
  
  Steps 1-3 and 5-7 of Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 will help you get installation media, backup any important files (just in case), and obtain your license keys for software (just in case) and the Windows license key (you will need this key).

ok i did that + i uninstalled network icontroller which seemed to have given me a lot of upload lag. it was also the cause that i couldn't sign into msn as well. i think it's fixed now. thanks for all your help writhziden. gonna mark this as solved for now. =)

Great news!

If you have any problems, let us know. I am happy to see the thread solved for now.
