Re: Problems in windows xp home start up

Also try defragmenting your hard drive and checking for any hard drive issues. It secondly (if it isn't malware, was also my first assumption) might be caused by a hard drive issue as it seems windows can't access some files or is taking very long to do so.

I believe windows provides software to check the hard drive etc on microsoft download.

Re: Need help with BSOD!

Hmmm, I don't tend to look at the error codes at first. Try going to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer and then post all information regarding your error.

Most BSOD are due to power defficiencies, try going into your BIOS and then the hardware monitor or something along those lines and then take a look at your voltages, I know on ASUS motherboards if something is out of the ordinary it will highlight it in red.
