Macbook windows partition trouble, real trouble.?

December 11, 2009

My windows partition on my macbook pro was playing up (unexpected restarts, blue screen of death then a restart, stuff like that) i tried using a file registry cleaner and it found problems with my registry every 5 minutes.This certainly wasnt due to a virus because i had antivirus software (AVG) and the only sites i went on were ones to get software such as skype and itunes. So i reinstalled windows, reinstalled all the games and all the software, just one day after the reinstall it gave me the blue screen of death again, any ideas? because im entirely out of them. 🙁

P.S. ive also tried to repair this disk both with the mac ‘Disk utility’ and after restarts windows starts a disk repair thing too, neither seem to have had any impact.
Thanks in advance any help is appreciated.

Why is my computer slow after a virus and how can I fix it?

I recently had a big virus, blue screen of death and everything. I’ve fixed it now but my computer has become extremely slow! Is there anyway to fix it?

Installed new hardware and now windows won’t start.?

November 28, 2009

My brother built a new computer based around a new processor and motherboard, (intel Quad-core Q6600 and Asus P5E), along with a new case so it would be compatible(Antec 900). After transferring over these new parts along with the necessary older parts the computer works fine except for one problem. Everything powers on, the computer gets past BIOS and then goes to boot windows but instead he gets:

"Windows Error Recovery"
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.

If windows files have been damaged or configured incorrectly start up repair can help diagnose and fix the problem. if power was interrupted during startup choose start windows normally.

Launch startup repair(reccomended)
Start windows normally

Whenever he starts windows normally he gets the blue screen of death and an instant restart. If he launches repair it goes to a loading bar that completes in about 5 seconds then just sits at 100% and does nothing.
P.S.
We do not have a copy of windows vista, it came installed on the computer and we never recieved an actual copy.

He cannot get to the actual desktop to do any of that from, windows will not launch.

In Windows XP. What is the difference between a Clean Boot and Safe Mode Boot?

Basically I can boot in safe mode but a clean boot won’t work (give the dreaded blue screen of death). If I can understand the difference then may be I can identify which windows file, driver or whatever is causing the freeze.

windows vista problem?

November 12, 2009

i built a new computer. have a BFG GeForce 9800 Gt video card. have updated the drivers. but…. i still am getting the blue screen of death. its really driving me nuts. i have a registry cleaner and everything. updated drivers again. when i go to certain webpages. like the new verizon page www.droiddoes.com it goes right the the blue screen or starts over. im thinking my video card isnt getting enough power. its the BFG geforce 9800 gt. i plugged it into the motherboard. but cant find another slot for a power supply to go into it. i dont believe the card has a power supply meaning it only uses the motherboard to power it. any ideas?? thanks
roll back my card? what do u mean?
