It's having another crisis
All started about 4 or 5 days ago. It crashed all of a sudden while surfing the web.
Not a big deal cause that happens sometimes, but this time it wouldn't turn back on.
Well actually it did, but within a tenth of a second it would turn off again.. judging by the sounds.
Next morning it would go a little bit further before crashing again. Later that day it managed to get to desktop and all seemed to run fairly fine.
The day after that I think a crash on first start up. Ran fine after that. Yesterday started up well straight away.
Late at night though: screen froze, had no option but to turn it off .. restarted, same issue as 5 days ago: on/off/on/off/on/off
The errors that I have received were: one time I got 'BAD POOL CALLER', second time I got 'MEMORY MANAGEMENT'.
I let it do the chkdsk /f on C: and it fixed some, but the issue remains.
Lastly, lately I'm getting 'flashes' when I play video games, little horizontal white stripes flashing through the animation. Might not be related.
Anyway, sounds like a problem with the RAM? Would you say it's something physical?
