kshah 452 Report post Posted February 27, 2009 Since you are getting this problem even after changing RAM, there are two area need to be addressed first HDD - might have bad sectors hence your virtual memory is getting corrupted. doing fdisk, create new partitions, check drive thoroughly and reinstallation may solve. Second cache memory on mother board. If this is the problem, then changing MB is the only solution. Try what sadik said too. Using failsafe setting may work.

KumaarShah 143 Report post Posted February 28, 2009 ^^^ It would be better if folks here use the exponent sign ^^^ (3 times) when quoting the person just before them. It is not necessary to quote the previous person's post in full. When you want to quote someone who is maybe 2 or more posts before you, then it adds clarity, but for the immediate post which is before yours, it is suggested to use 3 exponent signs (^^^) I notice from one of your posts today that you have caught on with ^^^ usage. Good.... I Hope Mods/Admins can make this a rule. It may be there already, I haven't read it recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
