View 13 RepliesI recently upgraded from windows 8.1 pro to 10 pro using the media tool. I've run in to some issues here and there, fixed some, but one i cannot figure out involves the system powering on after a crash.
Usually when i am not using my rig i put it in hibernate(which i had to add to the start menu in 10). for the first day or so this was not an issue. however now when i wake it, this is what happens. My mobo splash shows, and the black windows 10 load screen with the windows logo shows up, but before the spinning dots start, the system just powers down. i hit the power button, and it will load properly, though snail slow compared to 8.
Thing is, it always does this on first boot. It doesn't matter if I am waking from hibernate, or sleep, or had actually shut down and am booting cold. but it will always start after that, so far at least.
It also takes quite awhile to boot. with 8 i could wake from hibernate in a matter of seconds, maybe 30 seconds from cold boot. its much slower than that now, often sitting at black screens between the windows load and green load, or the green load and login, or login and desktop. I am uncertain if the slow load is related to the boot crash.

Now, under W10 HOME (1511 build) seeing occasional video crash/restore alerts and occasional momentary black screen.
Intel 4000 video has been updated to latest driver. No change. No virus; clean machine. 20Gb C: drive space left.
I installed windows 10 technical preview yesterday . I found a problem with system restore. It goes through everything normally but after it reboots I get an error. In the details it says:
System restore failed to extract the original copy of the directory from the restore point.
Source: %ProgramFiles%WindowsApps
Destination: Appxstaging
An unspecified error occurred during system restore. (0x80070057)
Maybe I have a misunderstanding of how System Restore works. Yesterday I uninstalled a program that I'd like to now get back. The company that made the program no longer offers archive downloads for that program in particular. Today it occurred to me that I could do a System Restore to when the program was still on this laptop & all would be returned as it was.
The first 2 times I tried was a total fail for returning the program but when I went back to a week ago it was there. Something is missing & it errors asking for the old install software that doesn't exist anymore (the program was purchased it 2008).
I recently upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 10. When I power down the system from the menu, my computer does not completely turn off. The procedure I use is described below:
Click Windows_Start_button > Power > Shutdown
The system closes applications and appears to initiate a shutdown procedure. Everything appears to be shut off, but my mouse is still lit up. I do notice that the fan stops and everything else appears to be completely shut down. When I was running Windows 7 before my upgrade, my system completely powered down.
I have a dual boot system with Linux, and when I power down from Linux, the shutdown is complete, so I don't think I accidentally did anything to the hardware or BIOS.
I have recently had to re-install Windows 10 and had problems before so decided this time to do a clean install and then run the system image backup. This went well but when it came to the testing of the restore a problem arose. I was using the Repair Disc created after the system image backup completed and could not understand the source file indicated was not where I had put the backup.
The restore said the file was on the C: drive which was what I was trying to restore to.

I tested it running Dead Island 1080p high at 45 fps. And other runs Fallout 3 set 1080p high at low than 30 fps and GTA 4 1080p high at 20 fps then crash.
View 1 RepliesThis is a machine I built from scratch about six months ago. Upgraded to Windows 10 about two months ago. I keep getting very random crashes, sometimes once a week, some times more. Yesterday it happened twice.
It seems to only happen when the computer is unattended for a while. I'll have it on overnight and in the morning I have a black screen, sometimes with only the mouse cursor present.
As kind of a side issue, when turn it off then reboot, I have to hit F2 to get into the ASUS BIOS. Somehow the BIOS seems to change on it's own and drops the Patriot Blaze SSD from the boot path, so I have to hit F8, highlight Patriot Blaze, then it boots normally. In the past, I thought I fixed this boot issue by flashing the latest BIOS. It worked for a while and boots off the SSD, then after a week or two suddenly the SSD is dropped from the boot path.
There weren't any minidump files, so I am attaching the text of the Windows MEMORY file, which I got using Windows WinDbg (X64).

I have a gaming PC that I built about 18 months ago that runs like a tank except for this occasional lockup I get. It locks up entirely and then reboots shortly after. It's only been doing this for the past few weeks and I get no BSOD. Today I checked the event viewer and saw that it saved a memory. dmp file with more info but after trying everything I can not get windb to open the dmp file due to symbol errors. This board has a killer Ethernet adapter with garbage drivers that I think are my issue. The only issues I've had with this system over the past year have all been related to the killer Ethernet drivers. The system hang usually happens when I'm in a download client or leave something downloading for an extended time.

After I upgraded to Win 10 from 7, I started getting this bizarre issue when video files would crash in both VLC and MPC, but not Windows Media Player. The larger the video, the more guaranteed the crash. I've reinstalled MPC, VLC, and Windows 10, but the issue still remains.
View 7 RepliesI can't open 2 games. Of course i can play just 1, but i need to put one in taskbar (SAMP) and when i want to open other game (it doesn't matter what game [League of Legends or something else]), the second game i open crashes.
View 2 RepliesMy games now crash straight to the desktop now. GTA V, MGS V, Just Cause 3, very strange I don't know if it was a Windows update or something with Nvidia? I rolled back drivers and still the same, it was doing it before this update but out of the blue. It worked fine before, great frame rates.
If I shut down and start up and load Just Cause, it got to the menu, but crashed right after. Once it got a few seconds into the game but was running 10 fps never had that before.
Strangely I can run LEGO Jurassic World and Disney Infinity just fine. What could be wrong? Bad GPU?

I don't have much knowledge about computer at all so I don't know what to do. Ever since I got my PC a year ago it have always been crashing randomly and very constantly with various different error code. (Since I lost the receipt I was unable to return it)
So after I learn about blue screen viewer I was able to get a list of recent crash. which I attach above. I try to google the error code but I dont really understand what I needed to do.
I am running a 15.6" Dell Inspiron Laptop that originally came with Windows 8.1. I upgraded to Windows 10 around the first or second week of August. I had no problems for about 3 or 3 and a half weeks, up until about this past Tuesday (9/8/15). That day, I got the infamous memory management error blue screen, after which it reset and all was well...or so I thought. Within six hours, it randomly shut down and restarted itself while I was working on a paper in Word. Later that same day, it rebooted itself AGAIN!!! While it only did that twice, it continually closed out of apps that I was in the middle of using without giving me the opportunity to save whatever I was doing.
I read a couple of places that said people were able to get rid of all of these problems by simply downgrading back to their previous versions of windows, so I tried to go back to 8.1. I began the process of the downgrade, and left it. When I returned a few minutes later, it was trying to reboot in 8.1, but I instead was getting a blue screen saying that windows had encountered a problem and needed to restart...but when it restarted all i would get is another blue screen telling me to either reset again or select an advanced recovery option.
chrome extensions crash and I get the "Aw Snap" every 5 seconds. Firefox crashes,and my steam program works but the store has a error. Every web browser has similar errors. Razer synapse also crashes. But games will still run. I also did a full reinstall of Windows formated and reinstalled everything and still have the same problem. asrock z77 pro4 I5 3570k CPU (corsair h100i liquid cooler) gigabyte gtx 970 PNY XLR8 - DIMM 240-pin 8g memory Main drive Kingston sv300s37a120g ssd Harddrive Toshiba Dt01aca100 Windows 10 I did a memtest no errors. every test i did came upo with no problems but system file checker came up with some errors.

View -1 RepliesI restarted Windows 10, and it started installing updates. The computer restarted a couple times saying it was installing updates, and eventually it said that there was a problem installing the updates, and that it was reverting changes. It hung on this is screen for about five minutes, and then (my arm touched the keyboard in this instant, not sure if any buttons were pressed) I got a blue screen, with the error code disappearing too fast for me to read and remember it. Now when my computer attempts to start up, it shows the gigabyte 3d bios splash screen, goes to a black screen with a command prompt-esque cursor blinking, maybe five or so lines from the top. At this point it seems the only input it will accept is ctrl-alt-del, which restarts it and leads to the same outcome.
View 1 RepliesWhenever I launch a game, started with Dota 2 as the only one, now proceeds with The Division and Subnautica (Those are the games i've tested.) it crashes almost instantly, no error reports, no BSOD, nothing, just a shutdown of the power.
Tried forcing -dx11 on dota, which worked for a while, but then it started again. Now, I've reinstalled windows, clean install, still crashes. Tried new CPU-paste, not a lot of work. Tested heat of my CPU, get´s a bit hot, but shouldn't be enough to turn off.
So I started playing cs:go and while I'm in a gun fight the blue screen pops up and says kernel_security_check_failure ... How can I fix this?
View 1 RepliesSince updating to Windows 10, my computer crashes after about 5 minutes of use. Everything is fantastic for those 5 minutes - then if I'm browsing the internet, Chrome displays "waiting for cache" then all of Windows will stop responding. No start menu, no CTRL ALT DELETE, just dead. Windows crashes then I have to do a hard reset.I have already tried reinstalling the drivers for the device.

These are my issues:
When I create a New Folder and try naming it, it freezes, then Explorer will restart. The folder will be made but if I try to rename it, it will do the same thing.
When I try deleting that empty folder, the Moving to Recycle bin takes over 30 sec long, there is nothing inside it. I can delete a big regular file instantly.
The Context menu also has very black thicker separator lines compared to what it should be a faint light grey color. That was the first thing I noticed that was off.
My issue doesn't really happen while playing games. It happened once while I was in a game. I simply spend more time not playing games, so imo it makes sense that this crash happens while I'm not playing games. I don't know.
The primary display goes solid green and the secondary screen goes black. The audio - if playing - repeats the last few miliseconds of whatever was playing just before the screen changed.
e: I guess I should mention that this doesn't happen very frequently. Usually once every few days. The quickest it's been to repeat itself was when it happened two days in a row, but after that it didn't happen again until a few days later.
I have encountered this problem (in thread line) for the past 3-5 days and I have come no closer to any solution during that period of time.Basically, as soon as I left click or right click on a file in Windows Explorer it will crash. My Windows icon in the bottom left has also stopped working and I cannot ask Cortana anything (not that I did anyway...).
None of the advanced boot options work either (system restore, clean install etc...).
When I click file and print i get an error saying internal error can not print. this locks up the picture viewer (any picture viewer) and the only way to close it is to end it in task manger.
I can print from any other application so i know its not my printer driver.
