3902 Views 13 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  dai
okay, this is how it is, I'm trying to fix an acer aspire 5920 here, but I'm having difficulties with that.

1: after a while, the screen goes mad, the whole screen consists of squares, and dots. of what once was the desktop background. (happens only in windows) and the computer freezes.

2: I was able to fetch the bluescreen error, so can do have a clue what the problem could be ?
so could anyone be so kind, and help me out here?

Re: Urgent, Need help with Acer Aspire 5920

you did check for the correct drivers and install them

turn off the auto reboot
control panel /system/advanced/startup and recovery settings
then untick the auto reboot box
post any bsod error messages the computer freezes on in full

check for a infection

I don't think i have permssion to change ram, but i'll try. you know, breaking the warranty.
last bsod error code was
0x0000008E (0xc0000005, 0x00000000, 0xA0CD6A48, 0x00000000)

Running a memory diagnostics test as well.

let's see, the memory diagnostics showed: Nothing.

BCCode: 1000008e
BCP1: C0000005
BCP2: 00000000
BCP3: A0CD6A48
BCP4: 00000000

Dont worry about warranty with RAM. also, try linux :pray: (get a LiveCD of ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/ ) of it works OK, its a problem with the HD or drivers. :sigh:

EDIT: boot from the CD, forgot that detail :laugh::rolleyes:
Re: Urgent, Need help with Acer Aspire 5920

i have found the problem, and it's the HDD, it's changed, and computer is like new again. thanks for your help.
