Randon BSOD's, couple of problems
For the past several weeks I've been getting BSOD's. At first I thought they might be due to overheating since they always happened late in a session. Now lately I've gotten them while booting up. Then I have a stable period like now. (The machine is nearly 4 years old and had never been opened or cleaned since I built it.)
I'm trying to follow your directions on creating and then uploading dump files. First problem is that I do not seem to have a file "C:\Windows\memdmp.*" or anything similar. I'm running Win 7 64 bit on a 4 year old Intel Dual Core machine. Second problem is that I've downloaded the SF Diagnostic Tool program but cannot run it because I don't have "permission". As far as I've known I'm always logged on as Admin but I keep getting this message off and on. So I cannot run the diagnostic program until I can figure out how to convince the program I'm the Admin. Frustrating combo of issues just getting started
