Does anyone have any experience with this? It comes back on it's own but crashes without fail on reboot every single time. Once my PC is running, I rarely have errrors.

So how do you get PC running if it "crashes without fail on reboot every single time" ?Originally posted by lynchknot
It comes back on it's own but crashes without fail on reboot every single time. Once my PC is running, I rarely have errrors.
When does it crash ? on mem count ? will it boot into bios without crashing ? does it crash when Windows starts loading ?
Have you run memtest 86 to check your ram ? Are you trying your funny OC'n stuff again ?
Check all the capacitors on the MB and make sure none are swollen or leaking.
Use one of your monitoring programs and tell us what your voltages are.
Can you post a little more info on the exact STOP error code?
That should help to narrow it down as it seems there may be lots of different causes...
or as an after thought, once you do get into Windows you can use MSCONFIG to call all startups and non-MS services and reboot. See what that does...
I first tried stopping all startups but still got this crash:After explorer crashes, it runs fine until the next boot. Nothing is OC.instruction at "0x734301d5" referenced memory at "0x734301d5" memory could not be read.
Windbond DR. voltage:
1.58
3.12
4.79
12.12
-12.68
-5.14
5.17
3.22
Fastgame, explorer crashes with error message and taskbar disapppearing but comes back on it's own. It crashes as things are loading in sys tray but still crashed when I disabled startup items.
**edit:
disable services but MS = crash
disable ALL services = crash

Same in safe mode?
I don't know when it started because i've been running my PC 24/7 without any crashes (only crash on restart).
Does not crash in safe mode Rik.
msconfig:
startup off - crash
services except MS - crash
serveice and MS - crash
I have not done all at the same time. I will try that now.
1.) Try running sfc /scannow from Start > Run to see if any files are corrupted. (leave a space between sfc and / )
If that doesn't fix it try the following.
2.)How many sticks of RAM are you using?
If you're using more than one,remove a stick and power up.If you still get a crash,replace the stick and remove the next one.Continue removing/replacing sticks until you no longer get the crash.

Will running sfc /scannow turn up my modified shell32 and cpl files as corrupt?
I'm using 2 sticks of 512 - would I not get a crash if memory is bad while running 24/7 as opposed to just restarting? It runs fine as long as I don't reboot.
*edit - scannow wants to replace my shell32 files.

It will probably replace them,but thats a small price to pay if it fixes your problem.Originally posted by lynchknot

Remove one stick and see if the problem is fixed.If not,then replace it and remove the other stick.
Faulty RAM can run perfectly whilst the machine is running,but every time you reboot or shutdown,the RAM has to write the cache back to the HDD.It may be that your RAM is not releasing the data,hence the crashes.

Does the fact that it does not crash in safe mode indicate the ram is ok? hehe, i'm just trying to avoid going inside. I guess i'll have to anyway - it's the lesser of the two.

working in safe mode is a good indication of a system device driver error.
This can be related to any drivers installed that are not M$ certified.
You should check the start up folder in your "documents and settings" folder to make sure everything on startup is disabled.
I tend to think it is a simple driver error/
only because you can run safely in safe mode and all drivers are disabled.
I only have two items in startup folder. Coolmon and fastnet99 and they were disabled with msconfig.
any shortcut in the startup folder will still run as far as know
am I wrong?
