Solved Any Ideas Why My PC Crashes Every Morning?

  • 1

Hello friends,I hope I posted this to the right category
the last week and after I made a clean install of Windows 7, with the latest drivers I will get a crash/freeze every time I open my PC in the morning and always during surfing (Chrome/Firefox tested so far)it will crash after 5-15′! I noticed every time that’s going to crash the hard disc will keep reading and reading and then it will freeze/crash.
If I just work with my desktop and other programs it will run just fine. Then I will close it sometime in the afternoon, open it after 1-2 hours and it will run OK including surfing the first 5-15′ minutes until I shut it down! Now I installed all the 13.x series of my Catalyst drivers (I own an ATI Radeon HD5450 gfc) and got the same thing..I make a memory test and checked the disk for errors, and they showed nothing.
Got any ideas?
Thanks for reading.

  1. “So now it’s an overheat problem”
    Without carefully re-reading the entire thread I would have thought that is still on the cards. Make sure you clean the CPU heatskink, fans, vents etc. It’s a good thing to do anyhow.

    While you are in there I would be inclined to clean all edge connectors with a pencil eraser (particularly RAM) then pop things in and out a few times to ensure the sockets are also clear of oxide.

    Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks
