I've been trying to fix/figure out why my computer has been crashing so much lately...I'd really appreciate some help in diagnosing these problems
System:
Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP3
HP Pavillion Media Center m8100n (4 years old)
upgraded video card - nVidia GeForce 8600
new power supply (not sure make/type)
Problems:
-frequent BSODs relating to tcpip.sys, Driver IRQL not less or equal, page fault in nonpaged area
-frequent boot errors (computer doesn't boot at all - beeps - short...loooooooonnnng...then repeats
-BIOS error - "system fan has failed, restart to prevent damage to PC"
What I've tried:
-defrag, disk cleanup, downloaded and installed every possible driver update I could find from both windows and nVidia
-download/installed; ad-aware, pc malwarebytes, super-anti spyware, spybot search and destroy...whenever I try to do a full scan with any of these programs, it ALWAYS results in a BSOD before finishing.
-cleaning my computer's innards...fans, compressed air dusting...removed and reseated fans/power supply/graphics card
