Is this your System: Acer Support: Downloads & Support Documents - Desktop / Aspire / Aspire M5201

If so there is a bios update, Vista was pre-installed on that machine, How did you come about getting windows 7 and how did you install it? upgrade or clean install?

Thanks

Yes that's my system,
I did a clean install, and I'm really unsure about how to update BIOS etc.

 

[Thomaszee]

Could you help me updating my bios?

thanks

Thanks.

Also what do I choose here?
4. Choose BIOS bin file and click “Open”
5. Choose flashing setting as your need(ex:Boot Block,NVRAM,…),if you don’t flash Boot
Block,NVRAM…，please skip step 5,run step 6.(We do not recommend to select NVRAM
for normal BIOS flashing) and click “Flash”

Since your system is unstable I would recommend the DOS Route!!

Alright, this might sound really retarded but, how do I create a DOS-bootable DISK?

Thanks, thomas.

Ive been asking in another thread on how to make a bootdisk for msdos to flash bios, but they tell me flashing bios is the last solution, are you really sure the bios is the cause of my bsods?

thanks

 

[Thomaszee]

Are you still following the thread Anthony?

STOP 0x00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

Usual causes: Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus, Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS

1. Did you run memtest? What were the results?
2. Were you able to do the Hard drive test with Seatools?
3. Did you uninstall MSE? (Please don't)
4. What is the age of your computer/hardware?
5. What is the age of your windows installation?

I need your msinfo file again:

To get this:

• Click on the Start rb:
• Type msinfo32 into the Search programs and files box
• When it opens, go to File, Save
• Save as msinfo32.nfo and save in a place you will remember
• Let it finish the process of gathering and saving the system info
• Right click the .nfo file, click send to compressed (zipped) folder
• Upload the .zip file here.

 

[Thomaszee]

Did you run memtest? What were the results? Yes I ran it, no errors as result.
Were you able to do the Hard drive test with Seatools? I have never used Seatools
Did you uninstall MSE? (Please don't) No after the installation of MSE I ran 3 full scans and didn't delete it
What is the age of your computer/hardware? I'm not very sure but it's about 3 years old I think.
What is the age of your windows installation? I don't know this, how do I check it

Thomas.
