Windows 7 freeze

[wietmie]

Hai, i'm new here, and new in windows 7, well i got this problem, i install windows 7 for the 1st time and it runs well, but after several time, its freeze. And then i restart it and after several period it freeze again, i got fed up and format it to windows xp and nothings happen. But then i love windows 7 much so i format it back, and here goes the same problem. i have read someone thread about the freeze when in idle. but the problem is, i'm in the pc using it not in the idle status and suddenly it freeze. So, is there any solution to overcome this pls?

thanks in advance

Welcome!

Try testing your RAM with Memtest86. Burn it to a CD using the built-in ISO burner (right-click on the file). Then boot from the CD and run it at least 5 passes.

Also test your hard drive. Go to the drive manufacturer's site, and look for their advanced diagnostic tools and run an advanced scan.

That's a start, if it doesn't work we can go on.

Check the Action Center in Windows 7 and see if you have any error messages.

Could you check your Event Viewer in Application logs to see if anything could be informative?

check whether your chipset driver is installed or not.....

it can be one of the problem of freezing..!!!!

i view the event viewer and found so many error.. on of it related to the network adapter.. and other things that i'm not really understand.. chipset? hurm.. windows 7 does not have default chipset? well will looking for that.. thank u so much..

 

[CarlTR6]

The chip set is part of your motherboard. Can you post a screen shot of your event viewer log showing the errors? You can do this using the Snipping Tool that is part of windows.

If u see this image, so many error event occur, is it normal?

And one more things, i cannot find my motherboard chipset, i already go to the vendor site, and it doesnt have the chipset driver. and i have google everywhere, still cant find one..

try installing the latest drivers for your graphics card (win 7 version) maybe you just need the proper drivers as i had this problem with the ones windows installs but once i put the latest drivers in it stopped (you might still get it occasionally at start up but that's just a quirk of win 7) just go to nvidia or amd website depending what card you have & download the latest windows 7 drivers for your card - hope this helps

 

[wietmie]

Wah.. i already download and install the latest driver for my card.. and today.. no freeze anymore.. but i'm not sure it is solve or not.. hope no freeze again.. ... Thanks for everybody that help me..
