lately i have a weird problem with my computer.

 

It just freezes, without a error message before it. It just freezes and only thing i can do is push in the reboot button. I really dont have a clue what it can be. I have no viruse, my computer is only 2 months old. And it doesnt matter what i am doing (playing games, typing, playing music etc.) and its occurs random. Sometimes it freezes 2-4 times a hour, other times it doesnt freeze for a whole day.

 

 

 

Operating system is: Windows Xp, Media Center Editon, Version 2002, Service Pack 2

 

 

 

Do u got any clues why my compter does this, plz enlighten me :oops:

 

 

 

Thx for the help

Hey mate,

 

 

 

Can you go to the Windows Event viewer for me and see if there are any errors coming up around the time that the computer is crashing?

 

 

 

To do this go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer -> System (on the left).

 

 

 

Copy and paste any errors that you are getting into here, or better yet post a screenshot.

 

 

 

Thanks mate; Have a good one.

i think i found the even viewer only its called logbooks (logboek)

 

then there are 4 subunits and one of those is systeem. ill edit when i have another crash

hmn?

 

 

 

The dialog title should be 'WIndows Event Viewer'.

 

 

 

Just open each error one by one and cp / paste into here what it says.

mm i think i found why i cant acces the event viewer

 

it seems i am logged in as administator (its the only account and i can even sign off as administrator), but i dont got the extra administrator options.

 

 

 

because if i go:

 

 

 

start > control panel > Performance and Maintenance > and then there arent any Administrative Tools

 

 

 

So thats why i cant show u the event viewer.

 

If u know how i can change my status plz tell me,

 

if u dont then thx for ur trouble.

 

 

 

I just will have to life with the freezes.

 

 

 

Thx again for trying to help me

sounds like it may be overheating, when you have turned your pc off after a freeze just feel the outside of the case, is it warm to the touch?

 

 

 

Also what RAM do you have? Why use windows xp media centre edition?

spec of pc are

 

P IV 3.0 Gz

 

1024 Mb Ram

 

 

 

Well the media center is standard on this computer but i dont use it. Have a disabled it. So i only use Windows XP.

 

 

 

and ill check the cassing at the next freeze
