Ah sorry i did not read your System specs

The next step would probably be to check hardware. I wonder about the RAID array. Windows 7 can be finicky with RAID on some systems. Would you be willing to run without it for a time to see how the system behaves? You should backup any important data because removing RAID will likely result in the need to re-install Windows.
Removing RAID0 will most certainly result in having to reinstall windows mate yes. I wouldnt put money on it being that!!
I found something in the events about a driver called hwinterface.sys being blocked from starting due to being incompatible with something.
It is ( or was ) in the WOW64 folder, all my research thus far seems to suggest this could be the issue, the file seems to be gone though, how can i obtain it?? Ive tried to find a fix for this but havent gotten anywhere as yet.
hey,
even though you already said it is certainly not the PSU as it would/should do the same on other OS, i'd still give it a try to test it with a different one. I remember having that problem with one of our ESX, the machine kept doing unexpected reboots, all hardware stress tests with different tools where perfect, nothing happend. But the ESX kept doing shit. After replacing all Hardware one part after the other we where still having that issue. Since we replaced the PSU it's fine. The old PSU is running in a test Win 2008 R2 machine doing a great job, except you run ESX on it, or certain linux systems...
Hope that helps :)
Best regards
I was unable to find any information regarding that driver. Is it among your services in msconfig? The clean startup would have resolved it if it were the cause of the problems and it shows up as a non-Microsoft service. If it is a Microsoft service, try disabling its startup, or you can set it to manual through the Services options: Start Menu -> Type Services into the Search programs and files (do not hit enter) -> Right click the Services with the gears icon -> Click Run as administrator -> Right click the hwinterface service -> Click Properties -> Click the General tab (if necessary) -> Change Startup Type to Manual
No its not in the services. I couldnt find much on it either. It was causing an issue saying it couldnt start, but it stopped that and is no longer there at all.
ixi85, ive tested the PSU with my multi meters and both gave the same readings, and there isnt even a flutter in the power delivery on any voltage output. Im an electrician by trade, so im pretty confident with the results i got from the tests there. If i get hold of a spare at any point that is big enough for the job ill give it a go...
Well i just did a full re-install of Windows 7, fully updated, only absolute essentials installed and it did the reset on first test with a bluray disc. With both Total Media Theatre, and Power DVD11 Ultra.
When i say full re-install, i mean properly, as in completely remove all data from the drive, and start from base nothing, using the disc to install from scratch.
Is there any other way i can run 3D bluray discs in 3D using my nVIDIA glasses on Windows 7? ( its not the 3D causing the resets, its those 2 programs when running blurays... )
