"stop: 0x000000F4 (0x00000003, 0x818cd560, 0x818cd64d4, 0x805F9F88)"
Havent got a clue what it means
I have run chkdsk and memtest and found nothing
It seems to happen after the computer is on for a while
Have also deframented my harddrive today
Also the computer is now running very slow (snail like) speed
The last few weeks i have been hearing something in the computer like a drive stalling when spinning kind of stopping and starting
Then sometimes the thing would just freeze up
Would have to hold the power button down to turn it off then start again
Sometimes this would happen after 10 minutes on or after 2 or 4 hours
Sometimes when i start it up i get a message in the top left saying
"Operating System Not Found"
I restart and it might be fine or i could restart for and hour non stop and still nothing
I then resart into safe mode-reboot and fine again
Might not happen again for a day or a month
Dont know if my HD is dying
I have it about 3 years
My specs:
Samsung x05 1.5Ghz Laptop
Intel Centrino Pentium M
Windows XP Home with SP2 and all current updates as of 18/02/207
Panda Internet Security 2007 (which for some reason has the firewall disabled ever since i defragged today-if anyody knows about this too)
Programs running in backround
WinPatrol
Intel ProSet
Airport Disk Agent(from apples new airport extreme base station)
I have ony done a clean istal of XP about 3 weeks ago
I mainly use the computer for sufing with firefox or using utorrent
At the minute it is taking a good 3 mins for everything to load up
and still it is so slow
right click on something and wait 20 seconds then the context box appears
Whereas last year i was able to run Photoshop CS2 on it using it for mild phto retouching and editing
PLEASE I need help
Is it software related like something to do with the sytem power settings
or is it hardware and my drive is gonna go
Or could it be something caught inside the laptop maybe causing it to overheat and inturn causing the error
Anyway any help on this would be really great
