    Problem with startup, applications do not load


    Hello there! I appear to be having a problem with applications not loading when I start the PC. It happens every now and then, and I am forced to reboot until I can eventually load the program. When I check the program in task manager, it appears to only load about 108K-124K within memory, then stops. When this happens, I can no longer run any program. I am at my wits end! Many thanks in advance for any help I may receive.

    Hello Beauedwards, Welcome to SF!

    Can you give us a bit more to go on? What program? When it "stops"... what happens exactly? Does your whole pc freeze? Do you get a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death... which means your PC doesn't like you any more and it quits on you with a (most of the time) blue screen)

    How quickly after booting do you try this program? How up-to-date are you with W7 updates?
    W7 64b on a 2G machine is sure to test your patience anyway but let's see what is really happening...

    I believe the problem has been fixed now. Apparently, my graphics card software had overclocked my CPU and GPU. When the software was updated, it reverted to default clock speeds, and since then, no problems. Thank you for the assistance!
