Freeze on startup and occational BSOD
Hi all,
My computer often hangs at startup (like 3/4 times) and sometimes BSOD occurs (rare). After a few reboots I get it started and then _almost_ everything works fine (more about that soon).
I recently installed the full .net framework 4 in order to install windbg. After that, I have been able to start the computer several times without a freeze, so that sort of fixed that . (I haven't booted enough times to say that it did though)
Every medal has its backside and in this case, windows update started to freeze. The update to be installed is... a fix for .net framework 4.
When reviewing the memorydump in windbg it says it's likely a hardware error. If that's the case, I would really like to find out what hardware it is and if it can be disabled in some effective way.
I have replaced the hard drive and memory so I guess those things should be ok.
What cought my eye when running !analyze -v was the rows containing PCIIDEX!AtaPortReadRegisterUlong
and
msahci!AhciHwInterrupt+0x3b
That's as far as I can get. All I can say now is "please help".
Thank you for your attention.
