    A few weeks ago my computer began black screening occasionally when I launched apps. Since then it has been randomly happening in unpredictable bursts. I went through my event viewer and found an error related to “Distributed COM”. Doing some research I found there are many different ways to fix this problem none of which have worked for me. This morning while trying to clean wipe and reinstall my video drives to see if that could be an issue I unplugged my ethernet to prevent windows from auto installing new drivers and my computer crashed again. So now opening apps and disconnecting ethernet

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

    ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.

    Hi Sumit,

    My new HP desktop computer still crashes. I tried following the steps in the link above, How to add a Recovery partition in Windows...

    I am not able to complete or follow the task required to allow you to see what happened with the computer crash. I need an easier step such as a 1 2 3 or and a b c, to-do list in order for me to let you see my System logs.
