  1. Windows Update and Settings Crashes


    I have bought a new Acer Aspire A514-52g and it works wonders. The problem is its not updating and when I try to nothing happens, literally nothing happens. Its trying its best to "check for updates" but nothing happens. That's not the best part, it crashes when I click "View update history" and "Advance options" the Settings window just stops then crashes. Bonus content might or might not be relevant, I have Malware Bytes installed that just expired.

    The first picture is just windows update just checking its own stuff and nothing happens

    The second one is when clicking either "view updates history' and "advance options" the settings window just crashes

    p.s. don't mind the pause updates for 7 days, I tried clicking on other options to see if the settings window will crash

    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?

    GPU-Z 0.8.7 crash on launch

    W1zzard is asking you to test so that he can suggest next steps and be able to troubleshoot the issue you have.
    If another version works, it would be one set of steps.
    If several other versions also fail/crash, then it would be another.

    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.
