Pete_C Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Disconnect all external devices (especially usb drives and cameras) . Just keep the keyboard, mouse, monitor connected. See if that helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baker7 Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Disconnect all external devices (especially usb drives and cameras) . Just keep the keyboard, mouse, monitor connected. See if that helps.I have to remember that myself, as with my laptop it won't boot into windows with a external drive or a USB Stick inserted, but there is no problem in my setup with a USB mouse - Good Luck!!Brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghorjus Posted October 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 thanks guys! I didnt have any external hardwares attached. though right now, things seem fine, i will have to observe if i really got the problem fixed (doing nothing!) i still need to know what really happened though just in case it occurs again..

And if so did you just unplug it or use the Safe to remove system? Edited October 31, 2010 by lefty1953 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghorjus Posted November 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 no error logs and no recent attachments of external hardwares.. puzzling for me..it just happend.. could it be a software problem/conflict? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lefty1953 Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 no error logs and no recent attachments of external hardwares.. puzzling for me..it just happend.. could it be a software problem/conflict?Yes software can always cause a problem. Try uninstalling the most recent programs 1 at a time and see if that doesn't fix it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete_C Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Disable the automatic restart on system failure.That way next time you will get a blue screen of death with a stop error you can copy down for us to look up and you will get an error loghttp://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows7/ht/automatic-restart-windows-7.htmhttp://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/ss/disable-auto-restart-windows-7.htmTwo ways , look to be basically the same as for XP .....If there is a box to check for "send admin alert" and "Create a log file" check them if they are not checked.

shanenin Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 you said you have no error logs? you definitely have logs to look at. you want to look in the event viewer, in particular, the system logsthis link is for vista, but it should apply to 7http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Monitoring-Event-Logs-Windows-Vista.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pete_C Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 I think it is the system logs section. Just look for an event with a red X at about the same time as this has been happening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
