It makes no sense to me

Hi my name is Cristian Robert and i am pretty close to go mental.

I have a Computer..

Is Windows 7 . . . - x86 (32-bit) or x64 ?::::::: x32 bit/86...i have no idea <,< - the original installed OS on the system? NO - an OEM or full retail version? Yes - What is the age of system (Not old/3-4 months)? - What is the age of OS installation (1 month?)

So 2-3 Months ago i had some problems with my computer..here is a example/.

:Normal day
:I try to start my computer by pressing the big On/off button
:it starts
:and then it restarts,the monitor is showing "No signal"
:the comp tries to start again/restarting
:third time it works
:some information about megatrends..bios..something about the motherboard
:then after that its supposed to show the windows 7 logo but it stays black for 2-3 seconds then BSoD' and restart
:no more Quick restart but the same thing happens for 2-3 times
:then you know how the Windows 7 logo is doing that ..thing..you know those 3 dots come together and then BSoD again
:goes like this for like 4-5 even 6 times and then i finnaly get to Log in Screen
:Sometimes it BSoD when the log in screen comes up
:the BSoD are most of the time :MEMORY MANAGEMENT /Driver_IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal

IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal

:or just the blue screen....

i had alot of problems with this computer, i had to change the video card, the psu and also the motherboard BUT, i had the cursed bluescreen thing for a long tine, before i needed to change those things..so..when i did all that upgrade i was like NO MORE BLUESCREEN....and guess what? the same problem? i mean the motherboard/videocard/psu works like a charm but i still get Blue screens whenever i try to start the computer, but if...lets say i stop the computer for 5 minutes then i start it back no blue screen/nada/none
:if i stop it for 30 minutes+++ BSoD all the way

The real Strange thing...i had a problem with the boot or something, so the guy who repaired it said..that he did a rescue sistem scan and some stuff that i dunno how to do...and i asked him..so the god **** BSoD stuff...IS GONEEE?

He is like...what?
I had no problem with that..
:he simply started the computer without problem except the boot thing that he fixed

He said he also tested everything there is to test..no problem what so ever

that happened today(Today i got my computer "repaired" the boot thing)...now..2 hours ago i try to start the computer..THE SAME thing happens...same thing restarts bsod yadayada and so on until i can get to the desktop


:I can play games i can listen music i can see movies...but to start the computer...? so frustrating to start it...it also can cause damage if it keeps restarting...

SO Long story short


I HAVE PROBLEMS home...i give it so someone else...NO PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER perfect computer mate !! o.O so yea...

here is the....dump stuff and info..thingy

Where did you have it repaired? I would take it back and tell them you continue to have the same problem and ask that they start the computer up with you there so you can see how it starts for them.

Disregard that, I see you already replaced the motherboard once. When was the motherboard replaced?

Your problem is very perplexing. I may have to ask for a few sets of eyes and minds on this one to help out. Since you do have problems before Windows even starts, only other suggestion I can think of is resetting BIOS hardware and software connections and reset the CMOS.

Note: If you are using a RAID controller, this will reset the RAID and you will lose your data. Backup all important files and make a system image before proceeding with this step if you have multiple hard drives in a RAID configuration. .

1. Go into your BIOS and load default settings to clear the CMOS memory.
2. Save Settings and exit the BIOS.
3. Shut down and turn off the computer.
4. Unplug the computer from the wall or surge protector (then remove the battery if it is a laptop).
5. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds. This closes the circuit and ensures all power from components is drained to clear the software connections between the BIOS and hardware and clear any corruption in the temporary memory.
6. (If it is a laptop, plug the battery back into the laptop and then) Plug the computer back into the wall.
7. Turn it on to reinitialize the software connections between the BIOS and hardware, and post back your results.

If you are unsure whether you are running a RAID configuration, do the following steps.

1. Click Start Menu
2. Right Click My Computer/Computer
3. Click Manage
4. Click Device Manager from the list on the left
5. Expand Disk Drives and check for RAID manufacturers (use Google or ask us by typing in manufacturers listed in your Disk Drives list)

Alternatively:

1. Login as an adminstrative user.
2. Click Start Menu
3. Click Control Panel
4. Click Hardware and Sound
5. Click Device Manager (the last link under Devices and Printers)
6. Expand Disk Drives and check for RAID manufacturers (use Google or ask us by typing in manufacturers listed in your Disk Drives list)

I replaced it 1 month ago i think,and yea i had this problem Before

I did the Nvidia thing,however to see if it worked i have to shut down the computer.

I will also do what you said now,seems complicated but it shouldn't be a problem,gonna check for raid,and by data you mean i am going to lose the windows to? i will need to reinstall the windows?

:Installed Windows pack thing sp1 from the update

This appears to be the dreaded 'Cold Boot' problem.
Very hard to diagnose, usual suspects are RAM, motherboard, PSU, CPU.
Since you have replaced the motherboard/GPU/PSU, we will not rule them out but, take a look at the RAM first as it seems to be the culprit most often.

Can you download CPUZ and post a snip of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory, and SPD tabs.

Have you been checking your temperatures?
Use Real Temp , to check the CPU temps when at idle, under load and/or testing.
Let us know the minimum and maximum temps you get.

Go to your BIOS and tell us what the CPU, RAM and the NB (North Bridge) voltages are.
This is important in order to make RAM settings adjustments.

I will also add the Voltages in 1-2 min tops


I think those are wrong but here we go:

VCORE VOLTAGE [1.360v]

3.3V VOLTAGE [ 3.344v]

5V VOLTAGE [ 5.208v]

12V VOLTAGE [12.196v]

First, update your graphics card drivers and follow the other steps given by writhziden, including installing SP1.


The information looks ok, will do more investigating.

The CPU voltage is good, need to get the DRAM voltage and the NB (North Bridge) voltage from your BIOS.
Post them in your next reply.

EDIT:Just checked your installed drivers and most of them are good.
Just keep the information below in mind for any issues in the future, For Your Information only.

Just found some bad news, your motherboard is not certified for Windows 7.
It doesn't mean it can't run Windows 7, just that Asus doesn't have Windows 7 drivers for it. Which will likely cause a lot of driver issues.

What drivers did you use when you installed Windows 7?
Hopefully Windows 7 installed the appropriate drivers when you installed it.

The bad news is Asus is not very good at keeping drivers updated.

You can try the suggestions posted at this thread.

hi saakeman, welcome to the forums, Asus does not support your mobo for win7, but all is not lost download the drivers you require ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support- and install them in compatibility mode Compatibility Mode hope that helps you
