BSODs after Start-Up
My system is totally new with WIN7 Home Premium 32bit ordered from Microsoft. Either at the Welcome Screen or just after my profile appears, a BSOD appears and the OS goes into repair mode. This can take thirty to sixty minutes, with every type of repair being initiated by Windows. Eventually, after multiple shut-downs and starts, the computer starts and operates normally. The problem returns after shut down, or when attempting a Restart. Coming out of Sleep Mode (S3), the screen appears momentarily and then goes blank, while the hard drive stops functioning. A hard shut-down is needed, resulting in the above mentioned start-up problem.
