A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. Stop: 0x0000007E (0xFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFF8000E60B000, 0xFFFFF880027EA0C8, 0xFFFFF880027E9920)
Usually I turn it off and turn it back on and it boots up to windows. I hit the repair button on startup but it hung up so I had to turn it off and reboot. I ignore the repair right now.
Today after I rebooted from the blue screen, I was on the internet and a blue screen came up saying:
Hardware malfunction
Call your hardware vendor for support
The system has halted
I turned the computer off and opened it up. I cleared all the dust out of the vents and fans, unplugged and plugged things back in, pulled out the ram and reseated it. Closed everything and hooked it back up. Restarted it and for now it's running.
Any ideas as to what could be causing either of these blue screen messages?
Thank you for your time.
