what do you mean by crash ?? does it lock up or switch off ?? does it only happen when under load ie in game or can it happen anytime ?

it has froze once and just restarted a few times

what kind of thing could cause this?

i checked my event viewer > system and i seem to get these 3 errrors:

Systems Error - Category (102) - Event 1003

and

Tcpip - Event 4226

and

Dhcp Event 1007

what does this mean? been looking around the internet and seem somethings about the network adaptor being the problem, anyone any ideas? could it be my wireless card?

i think i found a patch to over write that (tcpip 4226), what about the other 2?

EDIT: yup that's the download i got what about the system error?

ok and if it is what can i do?

CHUDS · 27 Dec 2006 at 23:50

ok well took out the wireless card and now just on laptop, left the desktop on. was looking through the event log of this laptop which is on the same wireless network here, and it seems to have been having the tcpip 4225 but has done nothing to the laptop. could it be the wireless hub (bt voyager 2500V)

btw my wireless card is belkin are they not a good make?

yes i did install new drivers as this is a brand new build (look at sig). could i get updates for them?

well i will see if it is the wireless card first
