[SOLVED] Windows logo test prevents me from installing any drive

Hello.


A few months ago I had a problem in burning DVDs
I searched for some help and I found out that the DMA was turned off
so I followed the instruchtions posted here and uninstalled the device and restarted
so when windows opens again it re installs the device automatically
I had to do this everytime I want to burn a DVD because when I shut down the computer the DMA turnes off again.
From then I used to do that untill yesterday
I did it and when restarted the re-installing of the Primary IDE Channel was interrupted by Windows logo test
I went to "Driver Signing" and checked "Ignore" for Windows logo test
but it keeps interrupting not only the Primary IDE Channel, but also the CD-ROM and USB Flash Disks
now I can't open CDs/DVDs or any USB device.
That's really driving me CRAZY because I have to burn alot of DVDs everyday!

Please help!!

Re: Windows logo test prevents me from installing any drive

Open one side of the case...
Clean PC from inside with can of compressed air and with brush...
Clean heat-sink which resides on CPU with can of compressed air...
You need to replace thermal paste on CPU...

Re: Windows logo test prevents me from installing any drive

I opened the case and turned on the computer now the fan isn't working at all unless I give it a little push with my finger
and I made system restore now windows logo test isn't interrupting
I think the problem is solved now it's just that I need to change the fan..
thanks alot!
