Windows 7 Ultimate x64 regular freezes
Hi,
I did a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my custom built machine. Installation went through fine, but when I log in, the system freezes every now and then. I tried getting a minidump, but nothing is created (like a C:\Windows\Minidump). Here are other things I have tried -
1) Safe boot - works fine - no freezes for a long time
2) Safe boot with networking - works fine - same as above
3) BIOS, Video card driver (GeForce 8400 GTS), motherboard chipset driver - all updated
4) Re-seated Ram (1 GB on 2 separate sticks) in different slots
5) Clean boot - disabled nVidia driver, which was the only non-MS driver - this time started getting Freezes randomly. Freeze happens while browsing a website, playing a game or even when left running idle (without any applications running).
6) Ran a memtest last night - did not report any errors.
I am out of ideas. Any help will be appreciated!!!
System specs:
FoxConn 975XAB motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo processor (I think it is the 6800)
BFG GeForce 8400 GTS Video Card
Corsair 1 GB RAM (2 x 512 MB )
WD Harddrive - 640 GB SATA
WD Hardrive Caviar Black - 1 TB SATA II
Thanks!
