    Various performance drops


    I have an ATI card which gets the grey screen of death fair enough that crashes my computer when ever i play a game or leave my computer idle or basicly do anything else,so thanks to a ****ing lazy bunch of ****s over at ATI who've known about this problem for 3 months and no fix as of yet.

    Performance goes -
    -good
    -crashing becuase of ati card
    -various blue screens (made another thread,with no solution)

    now,i've reformatted last week,computer getting worse by the 'crash
    now im getting crashes which windows says are performance crashes

    -Bootmgr image is corrupt,system cannot boot

    -"The file is possibly corrupt,the file header checksum does not match the computer ed checksum"

    -Windows failed to load becuase of a critical system driver is missing or corrupt

    -Stop c00000221 unknown hard error, \systemRoot\system32\ntdll.dll

    -many,many differnt blue screen codes.

    So...pretty much on the verge of ****ing this peice of shit out the window,as ive no money becuase i work from home on computer.

    computer specs- (if it helps)
    AMD Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition Dual Core Processor (3.6GHz,6MB Cache)

    ATI Radeon 5700 Graaphics ***DirectX 11***

    4GB 800MGZ Dueal Channel DDR3 SDRAM

    ASUS M2N68-AM SE2 Mainboard,AM2 + Intergrated graphics MATX

    1TB Serial ATA Hard Drive 16MB Buffer

    Patrick,
    Well lad, with all of the problems you've described, then my recommendatation is: Clean Install.

    If immediately after the clean install everything is working, then run Windows 7's Backup and Restore to perform a System Image backup and also after that, go back there and make yourself a System Repair CD.

    Now create a System Restore point an create a System Restore point BEFORE each and every piece of software or hardware you add to your system. This a lots of work but at least then you will be able to get back to a stable point.

    To create a System Restore point:
    WIN + Pause/Break combination of keys
    Choose System Protection in the left-hand task pane.
    Click on the Create button

    WIN is that key with the funny looking wavy flag on it.

    Patrick,
    That's your call. I consider Win7 to be the best OS that MS has ever produced.

    And to be honest, If I was a betting man I'd give a 100 to 1 odds that we have a case of operator malfunction.

    Sounds like a hard drive with problems to me ever issue you listed could be from Hard disk getting bad clusters. Run check disk and report the results.
