I had posted before that I keep getting random freezes while using my comp: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?p=624457
It was fairly infrequent, and I don't run anything that could get "lost" or damaged when this happens, so it was just an inconvenience I could deal with.
Then, as I also posted previously, My storage drives won't display; Bugger, workin on getting PartitionMagic to fix, but was ok for now: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?p=648891
However, last night, I tried to use my comp, and the following progression of events happened over the course of 2hrs:
1) Booted fine, loaded windows, started EVE, Firefox, was good for 10min or so, then freeze. Manual Restart.
2) Booted fine, loaded windows. Froze while loading startup programs -- BSD: Stop 0x000000F4. Manual Restart.
3) Booted fine, into windows. Froze quickly -- BSD: Stop 0x0000007A. Manual Restart.
4) Boots, Freezes as windows logo appears; scrolling status for startup screen takes forever, then freezes, then restarts 5min later, freezes again, and at this point either quick flash BSD which I can't read & autoreboot, or I Manual Restart. -- happens repeatedly in loop.
5)Tried Safe Mode, but it freezes at "acpitabl.dat"... either Manual Restart, or let it sit for 10min, quick flash BSD & autoreboot.
So, essentially I can't load windows anymore... What's going on? I've tried so many things.
I think I may completely reformat all my drives, rebuild my RAID arrays, and just install XP 32bit that I have. But I'd still like to know why this is happening, or what's going on. grrr,
