Windows 7 64bit Home - Freezes

[Xzeno]

Hi guys i seem to have the same issue but with windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. My computer works fine for as much as i want it but when i open utorrent or bit comet after 1 or 2 minutes after opening utorrent or bit comet my computer will freeze. No warning, no keyboard respone or mouse response so i am forced to reboot from the button. Im thinking its my linksys wmp300N card that is the issue. Please help and let me know what information is needed and how to get it. thanks so much! ill attack blue screen notices. I also ran memtest and disckcheck with no problems there.

I have new errors now, for some reason. But anyways i attached the new errors.

These were all caused by memory management. I would download memtestx86 and run for 5 passes. Let us know the results

Download memtest and burn the ISO to a cd. Boot to that memtest CD and test your memory.

Lets make sure your memory is good before anything else.

I kept having to try to get it to at least start, but I am now testing. I just hope it doesn't freeze in the middle of it...

 

[Talidan]

So, it says there are no errors. Should I let it continue and see if it changes or is the memory probably not the issue?

EDIT: So, it's been a while now. I went out and did some stuff and left it to do it's thang. It's just about to finish its third pass; still no errors.

So, where do I go from here? Because it didn't freeze that entire time (3 hours and 20 minutes) then is it probably something from the HDD? I mean, it wouldn't start up before (not show the "TOSHIBA", "Hit F2 for setup", etc) so I just assumed it wasn't just the HDD, but I could be very wrong since I'm no expert.

So, what should I do now?

Update on edit: I've still left it running to test just because. No freezing and it has been going for nearly 8.5 hours. No errors.

ok ill try the mem test and ill let u guys know

Ok no problems from mem test. any other ideas anyone?

Hey guys i installed the windows 32 bit on my machine to see if it still has the same issue. Unfortunantly it does. Whenever i open a torrent and download files from the torrent it freezes my computer. I tried bitcomet, utorrent and limewire but they all freeze my computer. They all also seem to freeze my computer around the same time 1-2 minutes max. Im not sure what it is, the mem test came clean with no issues. Ill link up the event logs.

Here is a list of all devices connected to my computer as well.

 

[Talidan]

So, nothing new to help me?

 

[Xzeno]

Alrite i figured it out. I just disconnected my wireless pci card and now im just using cat 5 cable. It works great and no freezes. Im never buying linksys ever again.

 

[Talidan]

How come it's so easy with the others?

Even when I disable my wireless and do whatever I can for that, it freezes! Curse my laptop! Why must you mess up?!

 

[Talidan]

Well, I have swapped the HDD with another laptop. I am waiting for one of the laptops to freeze. It's been about 1.5 hours and nothing has happened yet. I just assume that if the one with the old HDD in it freezes, then it's probably just a HDD issue. If the original computer with the other HDD in it frezes then it's probably an issue with some other piece of hardware.

If nothing happens to either, then I am just not sure...any help on this?

EDIT: Just in case it matters, the specs on the other laptop:

Toshiba/Satellite P500
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 2.00GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM
Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 (1GB)

And the other HDD that is currently in the 'problem laptop' has Windows Vista on it.

 

[Talidan]

So, it's been almost 3 hours. Nothing has happened on either laptop. I've been playing games on both and no freezing.

So, if it continues like this then what might be a cause for the original laptop to freeze only with the original HDD in it?

 

[Talidan]

Well, the original laptop just froze after I restarted it for an update. It had the other HDD in it, so I'm assuming it is an issue with some other piece of hardware. I really don't know where to go from here, so I would greatly appreciate some help.

Though if I cannot get help here (since it's not a Windows 7 problem) could someone direct me to a better place?

 

[Talidan]

I am sending it into Toshiba. So, I guess I'm through here. Sorry if I wasted anyones time!

Oh my god

I AM HAVING THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM.

I was running Windows 7 RC (build 7100) on both my desktop and laptop pretty much since it came out last year. I recently wiped my desktop PC and installed a brand spankin' new version of Windows 7 Ultimate x64. The horribly frustrating thing is that World of Warcraft causes a SOLID freeze every time I try to log into a character in a crowded area (i.e. main city) but works fine if I'm in a remote game area with little activity. My computer is more than capable of running the game at full settings and I logged months of game time on Windows 7 RC; the only thing that has changed is my OS. I even saved a copy of my old WoW folder in its entirety and can run the game out of that, but it still freezes.

It's a VERY reliable freeze--only happens when I log into a character in a populated area, and happens EXACTLY when the loading bar hits full. There is no sign of anything going wrong before then. I've un/re-installed drivers, reinstalled Win7, run it in safe mode, compatibility mode, turned off my CPU overclock, and just about every other trick I know. I'm an experienced system builder and this is just downright weird.

It almost seems like a very basic hardware or driver failure of some sort. Someone please help because I hate raiding on my laptop!
