so, everyone knows I've been having trouble with vista, but this is gonna really sound freaky;

I've been getting blue screens on a regular basis but get this...if it does happen it will almost always be a few minutes after I get home and turn my computer on in the kitchen

now, I'm plugged in and there's not enough time for there to be an overheating issue

so what could possibly be going on in the kitchen to cause a blue screen?

microwave is off, refrigerator is on, stove is off, gas fired

and of course this never happened with any other laptop
 
vista is a bad cook and is telling you to get out the kitchen, or it could just be the usual with vista - bad update, bad drivers, check the disc for errors,might be trying to read a file and cant so it blue screens, could be mem related etc etc
 
Perris, this may sound weird but I have a feeling you have bad wiring in your place that may be contributing to a lot of the issues. If there are problems with current being provided to your system and if you don't have a surge protector or an older one or one that has no protection left, the spikes transfer to the unit.

Once the components within your computer are fluctuating, it is very probable you are going to start seeing random errors related to the hardware occuring and this will likely attribute to your BSOD's.

Either that or you have some really badly configured stuff in your system with hardware and drivers.

Please provide a detailed listing of your entire systems components, power supply and all other parts so we can get to the bottom of this :)

Vista doesn't just BSOD. I have had 1 issue with failure to boot, and it was a new Ati driver way back when Ati was still Ati and not AMD.

Therefore it is highly unlikely it is the usual with Vista. How is it that so many other users are able to use their vista builds without issues or, even if they have issues, without bsods and Perris has multiple bsods? That is atypical and points to something serious going on I would think.
 
when vista was first out any and all drivers from a wide range of manufactors did blue screen vista alot, and there have been updates from ms that have hosed a vista install, i said usual, as driver fault, or hardware fault could be to blame, as i said in my original post :p

or it could be something to do with the nylon carpet in perris's place and its a static issue :D
 
Perris, this may sound weird but I have a feeling you have bad wiring in your place that may be contributing to a lot of the issues.

I thought of this but it happens when on batteries in this spot as much as plugged in and don't forget my transformer acts as a surge protector

in any event I took special note not to plug to see if it was a power issue since I suspected the same and I still got bluescreens in this spot

carpo, I did a disc scan when this first started happening

sazar gonna find that system info and post a log for ya

I just entered systeminfo in the run box and all I got was the cmd window collecting...it then closed with no report

how do I generate a system info report on this os?
 
type cmd in run then issue the command.
 
got belarc advisor but would also like to do this with the native tool so if anyone knows how I get a system report would appreciate it

anyway here's belarcs log

thanx for the suggestion
You're welcome :) Belarc has a nifty feature that pulls up the serial keys you used to install a product and often the OEM code.
Kinda information i'm sure you'd rather kept private :)

On Topic: Does this same laptop behave anywhere else in this manner using the same battery?

I only have one battery and I have gotten blue screens in other places but this spot in particular
 
Have you turned off auto-restart so you can possibly see the error message?

will get that next time it happens

here's the thing though which leads me to believe it's the hardrive;

sometimes it won't be able to write a dump it just sits there and I have to force it down

I'll tell you what though;

I'm more scared about why it's doing this in one spot in my house

I am thinking some kind of electromagnetic field or radiation

I can think of absolutely nothing that would make these blue screens happen in this one spot

the dump files are being sent and microsoft is "working on the problem"

How close to the refrigerator or dishwasher? I'm thinking magnets in a motor somewhere...
 
What about older florescent lighting or maybe by a window with an outside security light near by that might be getting ready to come on?

I had an old outdoor security light that comes on at dusk/off at dawn and was very noisy then after time I noticed the light would take 3 to 5 minutes to power up every evening also every evening as the light was trying to come on my monitor would flicker or worse the screen would get lines through it too the point what I was viewing was unrecognizable.

This light is outside and 14’ away about 16’ in the air so in the end I replaced the light and the monitor was fine.
Just a thought?

Also strong radio signals on that side of the house? Try a room on the other side of the house for a week or two and see what happens.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
hello peeps... is been some time since i last came here.

Rest in peace my friend, been trying to find you and finally did in the worst way imaginable.
