Topic: Windows 7 hanging at startup Posted: 30 Mar 2010 at 10:58am |
Hi, all.
Just recently, my Windows 7 system has started hanging at the logo screen. If I restart and choose either repair or load normally, things are okay, though repairing forces me to restore to a previous restore point. I've not added any new software or hardware, so I'm really confused why this is happening.
At first I thought it was a bad power supply because I was experiencing similar issues as explained in this post (http://www.digitalstormonline.com/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=9159&PID=104531#104531) or maybe a bad drive.
Tonight, if I'm able I may try to reinstall Windows 7. I've had a call in to support, but I keep missing them.
Here's my configuration. Note: the overclocking has been disabled.
