hey frens,
i have been dealing with a completely new problem with my computer...i don't know what is happening to my computer...i have even formatted it, reinstalled the system..but to no avail...and it just hadn't stopped from bugging me...i even get it to the vendor...but there it didn't gave any problem( it was so weird)..the problem of my computer is...(see also the attached photo):
whenever i start my computer ,after about 5 -6 minutes, the computer hang up with the black patches or lets say boxes..see at the right side of computer screen...and it doesn't respond so i have to reset it to get it started...see if u can help..i will be thankful for any kind of help...HELP please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me give you couple of tips.

To me its problem due to Processor or Memory modules..

Check CPU fan and heatsink
Take memory modules out and put it back , you may have to replace it/them.

i think da problem is in yur monitor,sometimes it happens due to EHT(extra hightension transformer),try connectin yur cpu wid another monitor,should work.

thnx man...i ll check that and let u know if the problem is solved or not...hope that helps...anyways thnx for ur kind help ppll..

hey ppl,
i tried all the things...i even dismantled all the hardwares and put them back together...nothin worked...it is givin load of problem...hangs sooner than before...i don't know solution...help pleaseeeee...is it that i will have to change my memory modules or something...just help me please....

Before doing anything, if you know how to access CMOS setup, check some parameters in Frequency and clock speed of CPU. if you have no idea what to do, you can set it to DEFAULT. If that still doesnt work I am sure it would be either CPU or Memory.

I don't know what it is. The strange boxes on the right side of the screen. Take a screen shot of the screen, not a picture. and paste it somewhere, if you see the boxes, the problem is your Display Adapter, if you don't see the boxes, problem could be your monitor.
if you don't know how to take screenshots. follow this:
1. press n hold shift then hit printscreen. (printscreen is the key next to scroll lock, 3 keys in keyboard after F12)
2. open microsoft windows
3. hit ctrl+v

see what the screenshot looks like
and the other site i'd say is - http://www.pcpitstop.com/pcpitstop/default.asp
this site checks pc health from processors down to your VGA adapters and all. It might catch a problem, it might not. But whats harm in trying right?
give it a shot. you don't have to be a member, just click on new users and then click on anonymous scan. it takes you through series of tests, no longer than 10 mins.

let me know what comes up!

i think the problem is with the monitor and the CPU and hard drive.try to dfrag the hard drive,clean up all the junk files and try to get as much memmory free as possible so the the system is not slowed down.also check for configuration of the monitor. and make sure no spyware is runnig in the background.

Looks to me it could either be the Display adapter (VGA) or the monitor.Try to run your pc with another monitor to see if it works. Since your PC hangs as well, it might be possible that your VGA or memory is defective. If you have a spare display card, try to run your system with it. If the display is built-in with the motherboard, then you might need to change the board.

I would update the display driver first. you can download it for free from your computer vendors site as well as lots of the other ones. all you need is the model number of your computer and match the windows package that you have on your computer.

What kind of video card do you have? Does it have the latest drivers?

just press ALT+f4

Everyhting will be allright

just joking :)
