Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

Hi -

We need more information - system specifications, core temperatures, processes, start up items, there's really sooooo many things that could cause that - we definitely need to get the essentials to solve this thread.

Q: How do I get my system specfications, Undocked Windy?
A: Why I'm glad you asked, AIDA32 is a great freeware utility that will help.

Q: Baaaaaa, why do you need my core temperatures and how do I get them to you?
A: Baaaaaa, your system could be overheating and causing it to shutdown without warning. You could be experiencing this. CoreTemp will give you you're temperatures.

Q: What are my running processes, and why do you need them?
A: Your running processes could determine if you have a ** and you can see all your running processes with Process Explorer.

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

Everything checked out as far as I can tell.

Describe in great detail what exactly is happening.

Also, for your memory dump, I'll get jcgriff2 in here to decipher it since I'm still a rookie.

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

What is happening is the system is restarting on its own. This can occur at anytime and normally does so when the cpu is under load. The error log refers to an unexpected shutdown occuring but I cannot seem to find anything specifically.

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

Here is the full file, sorry.

And yes it is usually when a game or other application is running in the background.

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

It's strange how you're not getting a BSOD before it shutdowns.

My System

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

Hi -

Are you experiencing problems while running the batch script? If so, please tell me. I need ALL of the files in the TSF_VISTA_SUPPORT folder including the log file.

The files that I do have tell me that you either booted-up for the first time or re-installed or Vista 4 days ago using an OEM (Original Equip Manufacturer) version of Vista Home Basic SP1 x64 - ?

When did you purchase the system?
Was XP ever installed on it?

No BSOD before shutdown = hardware problems. I found numerous system post-crash (BSOD) entries in the Event Viewer logs, but only 1 time does it record a bugcheck. The 1 recorded BSOD occurred within hours of the fresh/new Vista install on 5-20-09.

The bugcheck was 0x124 - Windows Hardware Error Architecture - WHEA. This points to hardware, but nothing specific. It seems yuou were doomed from the start.

These are just 2 of many app crashes. Look at the timestamps (see 2nd code box below) -
Code:

5/21/2009 1:16 AM	Application Error	Faulting application 
Setup.exe_InstallShield (R), version 9.1.0.429, time stamp 0x3fb01c5d, 
faulting module iuser.dll, version 9.1.0.429, time stamp 0x3fb01b4a, 
exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00014129, process id 0xaf0, application start time 0x01c9d9b1cd13dc93.	

5/23/2009 12:13 AM	Application Error	Faulting application 
ChipUtil[1].exe, version 0.3.2.2, time stamp 0x46adb49c, 
faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, 
exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00000003, process id 0xd54, application start time 0x01c9db3b4e0b3880.	
THE HEX TIMESTAMPS -
Code:

0x3fb01c5d = Mon Nov 10 15:16:45 2003
0x3fb01b4a = Mon Nov 10 15:12:10 2003

0x46adb49c = Mon Jul 30 02:51:24 2007
What were you installing w/ 2003 timestamp?


The failure of .NET 3.5 -
Code:

Event[427]:
   Description: 
Product: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 -- Installation failed.

Event[428]:
  Log Name: Application

 "The machine you are logging onto is protected by an

This message indicates that the supreme Vista user account NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM (SID = S-1-5-18) does not have permission to install programs. NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM is the user that was logged on during initial Vista installation.

The other message -
0x80070bc9 = ERROR_FAIL_REBOOT_REQUIRED (3017) and tells us that you must re-boot so the failed install can roll back.

Re: Vista unexpected shutdown

Hi,

I did not have any problems runing the batch script. The last file that I attached (batch) was deveoped based on the full batch run.

Yes, I did reinstall Vista Home Basic SP1 x64 several days ago in an effort to resolve this issue. It has not helped.

You mentioned hardware problems being a possible culprit..any ideas what it might be exactly or how I can test this?
