freezing Windows 7 after upgrade
Hello everyone
This weekend I upgraded my acer Aspire M3641 from windows Viste 64 bit Home Premium to the Windows 7 version, through an upgrade disk.
The upgrade went wel, however since then my computer has been having problems that frustate me to the point of considering putting vista back on, which ironicaly enough has never given me any trouble.
The problem: my computer freezes randomly. It doesn't freeze everything: My internet connection disapears although there a good signal from my router to my wireles USB adapter (sitecom 300N xr). Also, i can open up any application (word, excel, etc) and it wil open properly, but as soon as I want to do something in the app it freezes in the app too. Also I can't shutdown properly: after pressing shutdown, it sort of freezes in the final shutdown screen, and after 10-15 minutes, I get a BSOD, after which it restarts.
at first, i just restarted the computer by holding the start button, after restarting everything was fine again untill the next time the problem occured.
Just to let you all know what I already did: did the windows update and installed all that came with that, installed the only driver Acer had on their site for this edition (realtek HD audio), and installed the newest driver Nvidia had on their site.
however given the BSOD it still seems like a driver issue
at the top is states: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
further at the bottom I get
*** STOP: 0x0000009F (0x0000000000000003, 0xFFFFFA8005F1E440, 0xFFFFF800044E8518, 0xFFFFFA8003EC0C60)
Anyone have any idea? frustration is killing me guys
