Hello, I originally posted my problem in this thread a while back.
http://www.techsupportforum.com/f217/constant-vista-crashing-434141.html
I then reformatted my computer and crashes pretty much stopped.
Lately though my computer has been crashing just about as often as it did before I reinstalled windows, it happens most often while playing modern warfare 2, but it does crash outside of the game fairly often. Lots of times it simply crashes, screen freezes and it automatically restarts or I have to manually restart. IRQL_not_or_less_equal has shown up a few times.
All my computer info should be in that old thread pretty much, what info do I need to submit now? I'd really like to have a working computer again..
Alright, updated my realtek and vid drivers, no crashes yet...
Alright, back to crashing once every few minutes, with the same problem of being unable to boot up half the time after a crash.
Most crashes are actual crashes, screen goes all weird with lines and freezes like that rather than making it to BSOD.
Since I did format and installed/downloaded very little I'd doubt that its malware that is causing my problems.
It may be possibly driver related, but before all this started the first time around I hadn't installed and new drivers, so it would seem weird that they would be the cause..
After reformatting it didn't crash at all for a while, it started crashing after a windows update for defender definitions I believe, and then it happened like last time around, one or two crashes here, one or two boot problems after crashes there, then it just got worse.
What info do I need to attach to my next post? My last thread as mentioned above should have most of the basic info needed.
